TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that the issue of equal and unequal position of the parties is irrelevant to commercial contract and that the principle of proportionality is applied in the entire phases of contract, i.e. in negotiation, formation, and enforcement phases.
Abstract: The objective of this article is to argue that the issue of equal and unequal position of the parties is irrelevant to commercial contract. The essence of commercial contract that ponders business relationship without interruption does not deal with the issue of mathematical equality; rather, it emphasizes on proportional exchange of interests of the parties irrespective of result obtained by the parties. There are four important issues that recommended in this paper. First, the principle of proportionality is applied in the entire phases of contract, i.e. in negotiation, formation, and enforcement phases. Second, the principle of proportionality is not perceived from mathematical equality perspective but it is viewed from fair exchange process and proportionate result, which is acceptable by both parties. Third, the principle of proportionality is a doctrine of “fair contract”, which improves the doctrine of freedom of contract that may lead to unfairness. It is recommended that jurists, currently, be not regard the doctrine of freedom of contract sacred; rather, they shall find other philosophical basis to develop “fair contract” procedurally as well as substantively. Fourth, the principle of proportionality is applied as best choice of dispute settlement.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have pointed out that the boundaries of the public law, administration law, criminal law, civil law, and corporation law turns out to be vague, and that the enforcement of criminal liability such as corruption to the Directors of the Persero as managing Directors was erroneous.
Abstract: It has been a problem for many years that Government is involved in the management activities of the Persero. The recent problem is that the involvement of the Government bases on crime. Through very extensive powers the Government had interrupted the law principles concerning financial affairs of the Perseros under which asserted as State’s loss. It rises as consequences of unsynchronized meaning of “State’s Property” according to State Finances Act and “Separated State’s Property” according to Indonesian State Own Entreprise Act (Indonesian SOEs Act). Failures in managing the Persero’s property may be well presumed as State’s loss. This presumption is misconstrue and hazardous due to the ambiguity of the law. As one of the shareholders of the Perseros, the limitation of State’s loss is not more than the value of the shares held by the Government. Additionally, the enforcement of criminal liability such as corruption to the Directors of the Persero as managing Directors was erroneous. Therefore, the boundaries of the public law, administration law, criminal law, civil law, and corporation law turns out to be vague.
