INDONESIAN MERGER REGIME: MINOR CHANGES AND INTRODUCTION OF REMEDIES

On 27 August 2012, the Indonesian Business Competition Supervisory Commission (KPPU) issued KPPU Regulation No. 3 of 2012, amending its merger control guide for the second time, replacing the operative provisions of the previous regulation entirely.
