Abstract:
The Law of Republic Indonesia No. 5 year 1999 concerning the prohibition of monopoly practice and unfair
competition excludes the small-scale businessmen of the enactment of such laws as a form of legal protection.
There are pros and cons related to the exception to the small businessmen. The pros agree with the weakness
of small-scale businessmen power and the deceit won’t make a broad impact. And the cons disagree with the
reason equality before the law and concerns about the use of policies by irresponsible individuals. Thus, this
motivates the writer to perform analysis to discover the exception toward the small-scale businessmen as a
form of legal protection that is necessarily needed or not in terms of the principles of Islamic economy. The
purpose of this paper is to recommend the ideal legal concept for business competition law of Indonesia in
accordance with Islamic law. This research is juriditial normative research, used secondary data. Considering
that a regulation must be in accordance with the legal values that is prevailing in the community, including the
value of religious law, therefore the small-scale businessmen should not be excluded because it is contrary to
Islamic economic principles that require every businessman to operate their business activities fairly.

Business Competition was made as a media to cre-
ate a conducive business climate, therefore there is a

nities for large scale, medium scale and small scale
businessmen based on economic democracy. Accord-
ing to the purpose of the enactment of The Law of
Republic Indonesia No. 5 Year 1999 concerning the
prohibition of Monopoly Practice and Unfair Busi-
ness Competition, this matter is related to the reasons
for the enactment of The Law of Republic Indonesia
No. 5 Year 1999 which can be seen from the con-
sideration of ”considering” the Law, namely the ex-
istence of equal business opportunities for each busi-
ness owner in a fair competition situation.
The small business owner is one of several crite-
ria of businessmen in Indonesia beside medium busi-
nessmen and large businessmen. According to Article

The small business criteria according to article 6
paragraph (2) of The Law of Republic Indonesia No.
20 year 2008 is to have a net worth of more than Rp
50,000,000 (fifty million rupiah) up to at most Rp.
500.000.000 (five hundred million rupiah) not includ-
ing land and buildings or places of business has an-
nual sales of more than us $300 million (three hun-
dred million rupiah) up to at most 2.5 billion rupiah
(two billion five hundred million rupiah). While for
businesses that value of assets as well as turnover un-
der the small business criteria, is a kind of micro en-
terprises.
It can not be denied that the small business owner
is one of the pillars of the economy that must get the
opportunity, support, protection, and development of
existence (Komarudin, 2014). Related to the protec-
tion against the small business owner, The Law of Re-
public Indonesia No. 5 of 1999 on the The prohibition
of Monopoly Practice and Unfair Business Competi-
tion in Indonesia is one of the regulations that protect
small businesses owners by banning all activities of
businessmen that led to the economic concentration
in the hands of businessmen or groups of businessmen
with certain business, and prohibits all unfair compe-
tition (fraud). This is because the philosophy or back-
ground of the enactment of the law on the Prohibi-
tion of Monopoly Practice and Unfair Business Com-
petition is to provide protection against small busi-
ness owner by giving the guarantee of the existence of
the equal business opportunity among every citizens
of Indonesia. With the guarantee of the opportunity
of equal business opportunity and ban all forms of
monopoly practice and unfair business competition,
then the threat of a major financier of strength will
get rid of the small businessmen can be avoided.
Regarding to the protection against the small busi-
ness owner, which according to the writer is interest-
ing to be discussed further was the exception of small
business owner from entry into force of the act as
stated in Article 50-point H on The Law of Republic
Indonesia No. 5 Year 1999 concerning the prohibition
of Monopoly Practice and unfair business competi-
tion. This exception means that The Law of Republic
Indonesia No. 5 Year 1999 concerning the prohibi-
tion of Monopoly Practice and unfair competition is
not applicable to small businesses owner. Further, be-
cause of this exception, small business owner is not
prohibited from doing any act or activity that is pro-
hibited by law concerning the practice of monopoly
and unfair business competition.
Exceptions to the principals of small businesses
got a different response (pros and cons) from the ob-
server of business and competition law and research
that is conducted in Indonesia. According to A. Ju-
naidi, with the exception of this the Legislative ap-
pears to hope there is a chance for small business
owner to develop themselves to not losing the busi-
ness competition or at least get the same opportuni-
ties with medium and large businessmen
3
. Mean-
while, according to Mustafa Kamal Rokan, the reason
of the grant of privilege in the form of exceptions to
these small business owners due to the presumption
that small entrepreneurs still need protection in order
to develop, as well as for reasons of social the small
entrepreneurs that the position is weak, so that votes
will not likely make a monopoly (Rokan, 2010).
In line with that according to Ngurah Manik Sid-
harta and I Ketut Markeling, the reason for the exis-
tence of the privilege in the form of granting excep-
tions to these small businessmen due to the presump-
tion that small entrepreneurs still need protection in
order to develop, as well as social reasons that the
weak position of small entrepreneurs, so that votes
will not likely make a monopoly (Shidarta and Marke-
ling, 2017). Similar with it anyway, and Darren says
that in fact exceptions to the perpetrator of a small
business is a form of protection provided by the Act
No. 5 of 1999 th on the prohibition of Monopoly
Practice and unfair competition against perpetrators
of small businesses. He said further protection against
the perpetrators of a small business that was supposed
to be given, since they may not able to compete with
medium and large businessmen (Hermansyah, 2008).
On the other hand, based on reports from Research
on Business Actors Awareness on the Enforcement
of the Competition Law and Awareness on the New
Commission in several big cities in Indonesia, in gen-
eral the respondent does not approve the exception of
small business owner from The Law of Republic In-
donesia No. 5 Year 1999 concerning the prohibition
of Monopoly Practice and unfair competition. The
basic foundation of the primary consideration is that
this exclusion is contrary to the fundamental equation
in the presence of the law (equality before the law). In
addition, there is also concern that with this exception
gave the small business owner can have the opportu-
nity for doing monopoly and unfair business compe-
tition, while not obviously small business owner cri-
teria so that it can result for misuse of status or posi-
tions owned by parties that take advantage by taking
refuge in that position (Rokan, 2010). In the mean-
time, Susanti Adi Nugroho argues that the exception
relating to the protection of small business principals
by The Law of Republic Indonesia No. 5 Year 1999
concerning The prohibition of Monopoly Practice and

unfair competition is only temporary, and the enact-
ment shall be reviewed consistently (Nugroho, 2012).
Indonesia as a country that does not adhere to so-
cialist or a capitalist economic system, but have their
own economic system, namely the economic system
of Pancasila. The implementation of the economic
system of Pancasila as the ideology of Indonesia can-
not be detached from religious value. Mubyarto said
that the economic activity of Pancasila economy is
regulated in the Constitution 1945 need moral based
on the deity, humanity, nationalism, and democracy
in achieving economic justice (Simanjuntak, 2018).
Based on explanation above, the writer is inter-
ested to analyse the exceptions of small business
owner by Indonesia’s business competition law from
the standpoint of the principles of Islamic economy.
This is because Islamic law is a law that cannot be
ignored in the establishment of national laws consid-
ering the majority of society Indonesia is Islam (Ab-
dullah, 2017). In the other hands, As a country with
Muslim majority population, the question between Is-
lam and democracy is always on the table with mixed
answers (Ikhwan, 2018). Moreover, the idea that the
law it is the law to suit the prevailing values in the
communities where the law is applied. Religious val-
ues should constitute the values into the grip of life of
the community, so that the state’s law should also ac-
commodate the religious values to be described as the
ideal of the law and in accordance with the conditions
of the people .

3 DISCUSSION
3.1 Prohibition of the Monopoly
Practices and Unfair Business
Competition in Indonesia
Indonesia is a legal state with democracy system, the
economic system in Indonesia is based on the fam-
ily principles with the economic democracy principle.
Related to that, The Law of Republic Indonesia No.
5 Year 1999 concerning The Ban of Monopoly Prac-
tice and Unfair Business Competition, emerges as one
of the tools to create a conducive business climate,
so that there will be a guarantee to create an equal
business opportunity for large, medium and small en-
terprise owner based on economic democracy. The
main purpose of the enactment of the law that ban the
monopoly practice and unfair business competition is
to maintain the public’s interest and to increase the
national economy efficiency as one of the efforts to
increase the society’s welfare which is consumer.
The Law of Republic Indonesia No. 5 Year 1999
concerning The Ban of Monopoly Practice and Un-
fair Business Competition has been legitimized on
March 5th, 1999 and enacted effectively on March
5th, 2000. The Law of Republic Indonesia No. 5
Year 1999 is the source of law of business competition
in Indonesia, although the regulation concerning the
ban of monopoly practice and unfair business com-
petition can be found on the other regulation that has
been enacted before The Law of Republic Indonesia
No. 5 Year 1999 was being legitimized. For exam-
ple, the unfair trading practices can be charged under
article 382 bis of Indonesian Penal Code. Likewise,
the competitor that suffered a loss that is caused by
the unfair business competition can be file a lawsuit
under the Article 1365 of Indonesian’s Civil Law. It
is also expected from the industrial sector to avoid the
monopoly practice and unfair business competition,
as well as stated on The Law of Republic Indonesia
No. 5 Year 1999 concerning the Industrial.
The laws that prohibit the practice of monopoly
and competition are unhealthy businesses legal com-
pleteness needed in an economy that adhere to market
mechanisms. The legislation is necessary to guaran-

tee the freedom to compete in the economy so that
it can take place without a hitch, and on the other
hand the laws can be signed and guarding so as not
happening practices that do not healthy and unnatural
(Nugroho, 2012).
With the ban of competition and antitrust practice
efforts is not healthy, it can lead to the creation of
a market that is not distorted, thereby creating more
business opportunity for businessmen. This situation
will force businessmen to be more innovative in pro-
ducing and marketing the products or goods and or
services to them. This means that indirectly bans the
practice of monopoly and competition of unhealthy
businesses will provide benefits to consumers in the
form of higher quality products, competitive prices
and better service (Usman, 2004).
3.2 The Potential of Small Businesses to
Do Things Are Prohibited by Law
No. 5 Year 1999
Many who know The Law of Republic Indonesia
No. 5 Year 1999 this as the law of ”anti-monopoly”.
Whereas the The law No. 5 Year 1999 is the law
on The prohibition of Monopoly Practice and unfair
competition. By recognizing The Law of Republic In-
donesia No. 5 Year 1999 as the law “antimonopoly”
allows the existence of a difference of interpretation
of the meaning of the related legislation. Monopoly
Practice and unfair business competition are have dif-
ferent meaning, though have a relationship to each
other.
According to Article 1 point 1 of The Law No.
5 Year 1999 on the prohibition of Monopoly Prac-
tice and unfair business competition, monopoly has
the sense as a form of mastery over the production
and/or marketing of goods and/or services by a par-
ticular offender effort or one group of businessmen.
Thus, a monopoly according to The Law of Republic
Indonesia No. 5 Year 1999 does not mean the condi-
tion that there is only one seller (a single seller), but
a form of mastery of a market share of over 50% by
one or a group of businessmen (Syafrinaldi, 2018).
Meanwhile, according to the Article 1 point 2 of
The Law of Republic Indonesia No. 5 Year 1999, the
practice of monopoly has sense, i.e. the concentra-
tion of economic power by one or more perpetrators
attempt that resulted in the acquisition of production
and/or marketing of goods and/or specific services
giving rise to unhealthy business competition and can
be detrimental to the public interest. The concentra-
tion of economic power alone means a real mastery
of a market concerned by one or more perpetrators
effort so that it can determine the prices of goods
and/or services. Deeds of businessmen which can re-
sult in the occurrence of monopolistic practices such
as these build oligopoly (article 4), Monopoly (article
17), Monopsoni (article 18), mastery of the market
(article 19, 20, 21), abuse of dominant position (arti-
cle 25), and others.
As for the unfair business competition as men-
tioned in article 1 point 6 of The Law No. 5 Year
1999, have sense i.e the rivalry between the perpe-
trator’s efforts in running the production and/or mar-
keting of goods and/or services done by dishonest or
against the law or hinder competition efforts. Unfair
Business competition is often referred to as fraudulent
with competition (unfair competition). The works of
businessmen that led to these unfair business competi-
tions such as pricing agreements (article 5), Divisions
of the agreement (article 9), Cartel (article 11), Con-
spiracy in determining the winners of tenders (article
22), etc.
Understanding the practice of monopoly, then
surely this can only be done by big businessmen, but
unfair business competition can be done or caused by
activities of each trade both large and small. This
is because every human being basically has free will
and the possibility of doing wrong, as advanced by
Montesquieu ”... this is because on the one hand, the
particular intelligent beings are of a finite nature, and
consequently liable to error; and on the other, their
nature requires them to be free agents” (Montesquieu,
1949). With the aim to get the highest possible prof-
its with a capital of every detail, then the potential of
each trade good-big or small-cheating in carrying out
their business activities are the same.
3.3 The Islamic Principle of Business
Competition
Islamic law expressly prohibits the practice of
monopoly, cartels, barrier to entry, selling loss, price
discrimination and so on. History of economic
thought of Islam also portrays the history of scrutiny
of the practice of monopoly is one of the very impor-
tant institutions were presented by the State author-
ities in order to maintain fairness in the trade mar-
ket. Islamic history mention, after the formation of
the State in Medina, Prophet Muhammad as head of
government reforms and modification of the structure
of the institution in what was formerly the revolution-
ary civilization traces of Polytheists. The Prophet im-
mediately review the merchant, whether valid or not
honest in doing deals or in running its business activ-
ities (Rokan, 2010).
Economic activity as an integral part of mua-
malah, cannot be removed with moral urgency. Islam
Exception to Small Businessman by the Law No. 5 Year 1999 Concerning the Prohibition of Monopoly Practice and Unfair Business
Competition Reviewed from the Islamic Economy Perspective
205
is very reconciling morals with process between mua-
malah, i.e. with the attitude be honest, reliable, fair,
ihsan, do virtue, friendship, and collaborate is taawun
(Hamid, 2007).
In AlQuran explained that in humans should be
economical to realize the command of Allah SWT in
order that his life as a people who need each other and
each other’s live, working each other mutual and am-
icable, not turn off each other to win. Further Mustaq
Ahmad says Quran gives consideration about distri-
bution of wealth as one of the most important in es-
tablishing and creating a healthy economy. Which is
a requirement for the implementation of business ac-
tivity (Salam and Saib, 2004).
Moral for Muslims play a role of great importance
and has always been a life stance that guidelines de-
rived from the teachings of the Quran, the Hadith, the
Prophet or Ijtihad, i.e. using common sense in de-
veloping applied the teachings of Islam in the lives
of everyday. The purpose of the on that man can do
with his best in the run economic so that human activ-
ity that does not deviate from the rule of Islam. The
structural social economy has weathered to a healthy
and orderly manner, must be in line with the interests
of moral, if material needs walk itself and the human
relationship is measured by the size of the material
just like the capitalist economic structure, it will be
broken a good economic system and will change hu-
man nature of moraliy the noble nature hernia very
low and posed the lusts (Salam and Saib, 2004).
While Islamic economics emphasize justice, wel-
fare and honesty. Hasmerits of the Islamic economic
system that should be the way for Muslims to give
well-being and becoming a necessity. The economic
sharia is Islamic economics in the U.S. use a way
for Muslims to complete their economic needs. It is
Refers to the meaning of the word sharia which means
wide way. As a fair economy and provide for the
public welfare, it is feasible to make our way through
the U.S. economy sets Islamic principles (Supriyadi,
2014).
In Alquran explained that in humans should be
economical to realize the command of Allah SWT in
order that his life as a person who need each other
and each other’s lives, working each other mutually
and amicable. Instead of turning off each other to win
on its own. Further Mustaq Ahmad, as quoted Fachri
Baits says Al Quran gives consideration about distri-
bution of wealth as one of the most important in es-
tablishing and creating a healthy economy, which is
a requirement for the implementation of the business
activity (Salam and Saib, 2004).
Islam recognizes all human economic activities
that are lawful as commerce, trade, business partners
of cooperation, joint stock company, the economic ac-
tivities and operations are halal
4
. But Islam stipulates
rules on commercial activities that are intended to en-
sure that all of it is done by honest, sincere and help-
ful. The Prophet said: “the prophets is a sincere and
honest merchant, so are the people who are loyal and
Martyrs”

3.4 Exceptions to the Principals of
Small Businesses by the Law No. 5
Year 1999 on the Prohibition of
Monopoly Practice and Unfair
Business Competition Reviewed the
Economic Principles of Islam
In one paragraph that is very important, the Alquran
acknowledges the objective character and universality
of justice are equated with good deeds (moral virtues-
the virtues), which address the community people
of different religions and warns humanity to ”per-
forming good deeds”: ”to every faithful among you
(religious people) we provide rules and path (behav-
ior). When God willed, you undoubtedly made her
one person (based on the rules and the way it is), but,
(he does not do so). God wanted to test you against
granting to you. Therefore, what he (i.e., compete
with samalain) in doing good. Because Allaah you
will all return, and he will tell you (the truth) about
what you cannot agree that
6
.
In Islamic Economics, business and ethics should
not be seen as mutually opposed, for the business
which is the symbol of worldly affairs is also consid-
ered an integral part of the incidental investment here-
after. This means that if the business orientation and
investment efforts hereafter European as worship and
is the totality of compliance to the Lord, then the busi-
ness itself must be in line with the moral norms based
on the faith to the afterlife. The businessmen de-
manded be no contradiction between the intentionally
sayings and deeds in his business. They demanded
exactly the promise, on time, recognizes the weak-
nesses and shortcomings, always improve the quality
of goods or services on an ongoing basis and should
not cheat and lie. The business person prosecuted
has the awareness about the ethics of moral, because
both are needing that must-have. Businessmen who
are careless and do not keep your ethics won’t sell
them well so that it can threaten the social relations
and harming consumers, even himself (Widodo et al.,

the Holy Quran, Surah Al-Maidah Verse 48

When referring to business competition according
to Islam where Islam sets the rules on commercial
activities that are intended to ensure that all of it is
done by honest, sincere and fruitful, then the exis-
tence of exceptions to the enactment business com-
petition laws in Indonesia in particular exceptions to
the small businessmen, according to the author it is
not efficient in accordance with the principles of Is-
lamic economists. Islam does not regard honesty in
performing the activities sought only from the side
of certain trade alone, but every performer’s business
both large and small must run its business activities
honestly.
Unfair business competition prohibited by statute
is a competition not honest nor a competition con-
ducted by fraudulent means. So, the slightest fraud
committed by the perpetrators of the attempt was a
mistake that is contrary to the principles of Islamic
economy. When small businesses do the perpetra-
tors of fraudulent activities in running the competi-
tion, it will not be serious impact on a modal great
trade, but will harm small business principals, fellow
micro, what will consumer harm.
Exceptions to these small businessmen result area
operation Hawk Act number 5 Year 1999 less than
2% of all businessmen in Indonesia. This is because
the number of perpetrators of the small business that
does not include no more than 2% (Is, 2016). This
illustrates that 98% of businessmen in Indonesia are
the small businesses. With this figure, then it can be
imagined to be the moral impact of the trade that will
be incurred due to an exception by law that ultimately
98% of businessmen in Indonesia were not carrying
Islamic principles in the conduct of its business activ-
ities. Obviously this far removed from the lofty eco-
nomic goals of Pancasila.
The implementation of the economic system of
Pancasila as the ideology of Indonesia could not be
released from Islamic values. Mubyarto said that the
economic activity of Pancasila economy is regulated
in the Constitution 1945 need moral based on the de-
ity, humanity, nationalism, and democracy in achiev-
ing economic justice (Mubyarto, 1987). This means
that the principle of honesty in performing business
activities must be really accommodating in such a
way in a business competition law in the country.
The system of quality of family and economic
populist was actually a legal system which does not
merely rely on the rule of law, but rather paid atten-
tion on the rule of morals and the rule of justice. The
legal system is then seamlessly reciprocity in the eco-
nomic system of Pancasila. With the revolutionary
approach expected attainment of Vision 2030 Indone-
sia is based on and guided by a legal system which
accommodate the norms of life in the community i.e.,
customary law and Islamic law (Manan, 2014).
We should not forget that the main purpose of the
law is order and justice and the means of renewal in
society (Lili, 2007). Al-Arab in the dictionary it states
that: ”a thing that exists in the mind in a State of
honest is justice, any dishonest or not straight or not
worthy is regarded as unfair”. Ideas about right and
wrong implicit in the term adl because the term is of-
ten used in a broad sense including the values and re-
ligion (Santoso, 2012). According to Islamic system
any legal straight and in accordance with the law of
God has been just, this is the nature of religious con-
cepts. In the Islamic view on the balance of the world
that is governed by the Ordinance of God, justice is a
virtue where God provides the law he passes through
the Holy Quran. The principles of parity, middle ages,
States that bring the beauty of nature and kindness to
humans. According to Muslim doctrine, Justice rep-
resents both the basic purpose and the ultimate goal
of all divine revelation. He expresses in the levels:
The Justice of God to his creation and justice of man
among his fellow man (Santoso, 2012).
4 CONCLUSIONS
Islam strongly upholds honesty, sincerity and moral
perpetrator of effort in conducting its economic activ-
ities. Every business activity way hinders the unfair
business competition is contrary to the principles of
Islam. Not honest in doing business activities such as
doing unfair business competition can be performed
by each businessman both large and small business-
men. Therefore, it is wise to The Law of Repub-
lic Indonesia No. 5 Year 1999 on the prohibition of
Monopoly Practice and unfair business competition
business in Indonesia does not provide exceptions to
small business owner. Protecting small business of-
fender does not mean letting it run the business ac-
tivities in ways that are contrary to Islamic values, it
would be detrimental to society as a consumer.
