The implementation of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), may increase trade and commercial activities in the number of intra-ASEAN, including investment disputes between investors and ASEAN member Countries. In that regard, the ASEAN Comprehensive Investment Agreement (ACIA) gives aggrieved investors the option to refer their disputes to arbitration in resolving their disputes. Many foreign arbitrage decisions is found to be time consuming when it comes to enforcing the decision and cases over the final and legal binding arbitrage decision being overturned by court’s decision in Indonesia.
