Abstract

The Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed ​​Rail project, known as Whoosh, has transformed from a mere infrastructure ambition to the center of fiscal and national sovereignty debates in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the debt status of Whoosh through a multidimensional approach encompassing legal, social, and political perspectives until early 2026. Legally, this study highlights the shift in the scheme from a purely Business-to-Business (B2B) to the involvement of the state budget through government guarantees based on Presidential Regulation Number 91 of 2023. From a social perspective, there is a dichotomy between the benefits of public mobility and the tax burden borne by the public due to PT KCIC's operational losses reaching trillions of rupiah. Politically, the sustainability of this project is a test of economic diplomacy between Indonesia and China, especially under the leadership of President Prabowo Subianto who has taken full responsibility for the debt restructuring. The data in this study were collected through a systematic literature review and analysis of recent policy documents. The results of the study indicate that restructuring through the investment agency Danantara is key to maintaining the financial stability of PT KAI as the parent consortium. In conclusion, resolving the Whoosh debt requires stronger regulatory harmonization to mitigate long-term fiscal risks while maintaining public service functions. Keywords: Whoosh, KCIC Debt, Legal Perspective, Infrastructure Politics, Social Impact, Danantara.

Abstract

Corruption crimes are highly detrimental to the state’s finances, national economy, and hinder growth and the continuity of national development, even violating the social and economic rights of society at large. The conventional approach to eradicating corruption is deemed ineffective and inefficient in addressing the rampant nature of this crime. This is because corruption crimes have increased over time. In this context, whistleblowers play a critical role in assisting law enforcement in exposing existing corruption. However, the significant risks faced by whistleblowers require clear and definitive legal protection. This research focuses on analyzing the policies and status of whistleblowers in corruption crimes in Indonesia and the extent to which legal protection is provided to whistleblowers. This research employs a normative legal research method with a legislative approach and a conceptual approach. The research findings show that although whistleblowers play a strategically important role in exposing corruption, their existence needs to be strongly protected by the law. The presence of whistleblowers may jeopardize their own safety and that of their families if there is inadequate protection. Therefore, strengthening the protection of whistleblowers is a strategic step to empower them as a tool to break the chain of corruption
