Abstract

This article identifies and examines the policy formulation of the ultimum remedium principle in criminalizing
corporations in Indonesia. The source ofcriminal law is found in the Criminal Code (KUHP) and laws outside
the Criminal Code. The principle of ultimum remedium in corporate punishment is not recognized in the
Criminal Code. Limited ultimum remedium-based corporate penalties are found in various laws containing
offenses in thefields of taxation, customs, excise, and the environment. Normatively, the process of prosecuting
a corporation is a last resort, and the main step required isfulfilling the obligation to pay offlosses to state
revenue, paying off import duties that are not or underpaid, or after paying off excise that is not and/or
underpaid. From this policyformulation, it can be seen that the principle of ultimum remedium in corporate
punishment is partial.

L. INTRODUCTION

    The  principle of ultimum   remedium is one of the characteristics of modern
criminal law. This principle is a prerequisite in creating criminal law structures. In this
building, this principle is placed as a foundation or supporting pillar.' As a foundation,
it is the main component  that lies at the basis of the structure of criminal law, enabling
the role of criminal law in realizing national goals to run as well as possible. National
goals are the direction to be achieved  and  realized at the level of national and state
life. State goals must be  pursued  jointly, and not just be the  responsibility of the
government.   Corporations  must  be encouraged   to become   one of the driving forces
of the national economy.   Corporations  play an important   role in advancing general
welfare, which  is the great goal of the Indonesian nation.
