KONTAN.CO.ID - JAKARTA. Indonesia's parliament will soon open a fresh debate of a flagship law that aimed to transform the country's investment climate, to comply with a court ruling that found fault with the way the legislation was passed. A senior lawmaker told Reuters.

The Constitutional Court last year ruled that the passage of President Joko Widodo's vaunted Jobs Creation Law was flawed due to limited public consultations and ordered lawmakers to restart the process within two years, otherwise the law would be deemed unconstitutional.
