The authors believe that the success of this discussion is closely related to the contributions of legal scholars from various disciplines and practitioners. Therefore, we have conducted a series of data collection virtually on literature sources such as journal publications, books, proceedings, and several legal websites. Furthermore, an in- depth study effort involves data evaluation, data coding, data interpretation, and drawing conclusions which will be used as data findings supported by scientific evidence from several experts with valid and convincing data considerations.

Based on the data exposure and discussion, we can conclude that most legal experts, especially independent ones, say that the Constitutional Court's decision issued in October 2021 regarding the Manpower Act Derived from the Omnibus Law is legally binding flawed. They believe the decision will reap prolonged controversy. Thus, these findings should be the subject of further studies in the future.
