Legal Protection Against Trade Secrets in Indonesia

Abstract

Intellectual property protection is a critical component in fostering creativity and economy. Indonesia has ratified the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights and passed the Trade Secrets Law No. 30 of 2000. Every citizen's rights are protected by the law, whether they were acquired as a result of a transfer or arose as a consequence of their own creation. Shared rights in the form of copyrighted works fall under the category of Intellectual Property Rights in the legal world (IPR). As a result, IPR might be defined as an abstract right that pertains to immaterial objects. Copyrights, Patents, and Trademarks, as well as Confidentiality Trade, are examples of ideas that require legal protection from an economic standpoint.
