Indonesia is currently debating a new Asset Forfeiture Bill (RUU PATP) amid public demand for stronger anti-corruption measures. However, attention has largely overlooked a recently enacted law, Law Number 4 of 2026 concerning the Development and Strengthening of the Financial Sector (UU P2SK). This new financial sector law is also sparking controversy, potentially impacting the effectiveness of anti-corruption efforts. The debate surrounding both laws raises concerns about the overall approach to combating financial crime in the country. Critics suggest a focus solely on asset forfeiture may distract from broader systemic issues addressed - or not addressed - within the UU P2SK. The interplay between these two pieces of legislation will be crucial in determining Indonesia’s future anti-corruption strategy. Public scrutiny is mounting over the potential consequences of these legal changes.
