Then, in the research method for this article, the author uses the Normative Juridical Research Method (Legal Research). Since the enactment of the Job Creation Law, the flow of regional government towards recentralization has become stronger and Indonesia's regional autonomy has become increasingly questionable. "Some of the material contained in the Job Creation Omnibus Law has clearly reduced the widest possible autonomy rights granted to regional governments, both provincial and district based on Article 18 paragraph (5) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia (1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia). ". With the current enactment of the Job Creation Law, regional authority is only as a verifier of licensing files, so they do not have the authority to issue or not issue a permit, even though the background to the creation of this Law is to improve the investment ecosystem and regional business activities to encourage regional prosperity.
