Background
PT Rahajasa Media Internet was the plaintiff. The defendants included the Center for Provision and Management of Telecommunications and Informatics Financing, also identified as BP3TI and BAKTI KOMINFO, as well as the Directorate General of Post and Informatics, the Ministry of Communication and Information, the Ministry of Finance, and the Republic of Indonesia.
The judgment describes the dispute as one between an Indonesian company and the Republic of Indonesia concerning commercial activity that took place in Indonesia. The opinion text provided does not include the parties’ underlying claims or the defendants’ detailed arguments.
Ruling
The defendants filed a motion to dismiss. The court granted that motion because it could not exercise subject-matter jurisdiction, meaning the court lacked legal authority to decide this dispute.
The judgment states that allowing PT Rahajasa Media Internet to amend its pleading would be futile. The action was therefore dismissed with prejudice, and the case was closed. The judgment relies on the reasons stated in the court’s July 14, 2025 order, which is not included in the provided text.
