Jurisdiction
Indonesia has 6 tracked bills on artificial intelligence and data centers: 3 enacted, 1 in committee, 2 filed.
Indonesia is still building its AI and data center framework. The 2022 Personal Data Protection Law is now enforceable but its dedicated agency isn't operational until 2026, and binding AI rules remain at the draft stage.
