This study aims to determine the reaction of foreign ownership on the Indonesia Stock Exchange to the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). This study will examine the reaction of foreign ownership on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the periods 2007-2010 and 2012-2015. The variables used in this study are IFRS and foreign ownership. It finds that the obligation of IFRS does not affect the development of foreign investment in Indonesia, because accounting standards in Indonesia have been adjusted to IFRS since 2008 and investment decisions are not only influenced by standard accounting policies, but also by other factors, such as the economic and political conditions of a country. This study is motivated by the results of previous studies regarding the reaction of foreign ownership of IFRS adoption, which is still controversial. Some studies suggest that IFRS adoption increases information appeal and can attract foreign investment, while other research states that IFRS adoption will not necessarily increase the number of shares held by foreign investors.

The 2007 Indonesian investment law granted national treatment for foreign investors, establishing a transparent 'negative list' for out-of-bonds investment sectors, and has been considired as a reformative regulation in Indonesia's economic strategy. However, decentralized systems give autonomy to local governments to manage their projects and infrastructure themselves. This leads into increasiig investment burdens through their opaque measures that are creating perceptions of risk for foreign investors. As a result, lack of legal certainty, inconsistent regulations and judiciary system would hamter investments. This article argues that law 25/2007 should be supported by a comprehensive investment policy to attract more foreign investors into Indonesia. A key element in establishing a competitive region is a free and open investment regime, This article addresses policy impediment to private investment in Indonesia as well as in the ASEAN region. Indonesia and ASEAN should have non-discriminatory treatment extended to foreign investors including ASEAN-based inveitors, as the establishment of ASEAN Economic community (AEC) will cornmence in 2015. Legal certainty of international business transaction by private investors is fostering investments by both direct investment and indirect investment (portfolio). Parties to investment agreements include individuals, small, medium and large multinational corporations, and countries. In this centralized global atmosphere, the Indonesian agovemment has to provide guarantees to leverage private investments.
In Islamic law, khamr is a common type of alcoholic beverage that is forbidden for consumption due to its elements that can intoxicate and lead to loss of self-control. The government of Indonesia also forbids people from consuming the intoxicating beverage in certain levels. Nevertheless, a community group in Batu Payuang Halaban, Lima Puluh Kota Regency, West Sumatra Province, Indonesia, wherein their daily lives can be found a type of traditional beverage as same as khamr that is a fermented juice of sugar palm bunches. The people call it "tuak". This research aims to investigate how the people of Nagari Batu Payuang produce aia niro and tuak, their motives for buying, selling, and consuming the drink, and judging it from the perspective of Islamic law (hadd al-syurb). This type of research is field research with a qualitative approach. Data sources consisted of primary and secondary. The data collection was conducted by observing the process of producing aia niro, tuak, and the transaction, and in-depth interviews with owners of sugar palm plantation, tuak producers, buyers, sellers, consumers, and local ulama (Islamic scholars). The data were analyzed in descriptive by reduction, display, and verification. To examine this research, the theory used was the concept of hadd al-syurb in Islamic law and the regulation on alcoholic beverages in Indonesia. The results show that aia niro is produced by extracting the bunches of male sugar palm and it is the raw material to produce tuak by leaving the aia niro in jerry cans and adding agarwood bark for 3 days. The sellers have various reasons to sell tuak and its raw materials. Besides the price is higher than brown sugar, it is also motivated by personal and other economic reasons as well as easier processing. People who drink tuak realize that it is intoxicating in a certain amount but they drink it to warm their bodies and relieve their fatigues. In the concept of hadd al-syurb, consuming tuak as an intoxicating substance is haram (forbidden) and is condemned to those who drink it. However, they who trade it are not punished by hudud since the Sunna proposition only refers to the transaction as an act of curse. ; Dalam konteks hukum Islam, khamr adalah salah satu jenis minuman yang dilarang untuk dikonsumsi karena mengandung unsur yang dapat memabukkan dan menghilangkan fungsi akal. Pemerintah Indonesia juga melarang masyarakat mengkonsumsi minuman memabukkan dalam kadar tertentu. Meskipun demikian, ada kelompok masyarakat di Batu Payuang Halaban, Kabupaten Lima Puluh Kota, Provinsi Sumatera Barat, Indonesia, yang dalam keseharian mereka ditemukan jenis minuman tradisional yang berfungsi sama dengan khamr. Mereka menyebutnya dengan nama tuak yang berasal dari fermentasi air perasan tandan aren. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui cara masyarakat Nagari Batu Payuang memproduksi aia niro dan tuak serta mengetahui alasan mereka melakukan jual beli dan mengkonsumsinya, kemudian menilainya dari sudut pandang hukum Islam (hadd al-syurb). Jenis penelitian adalah penelitian lapangan dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Sumber data terdiri dari sumber data primer dan sekunder. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan cara observasi proses pembuatan aia niro, tuak dan jual belinya, wawancara mendalam dengan pemilik kebun aren, produsen tuak, pembeli, penjual, konsumen dan ulama lokal. Data dianalisis secara deskriptif dengan cara reduksi, display dan verifikasi. Teori yang digunakan untuk menelaah kajian ini adalah konsep hadd al-syurb dalam hukum Islam dan pengaturan minuman keras di Indonesia. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa cara produksi aia niro adalah dengan menyadap tandan bunga jantan dan airnya digunakan untuk membuat tuak dengan cara mendiamkan aia niro itu dalam jeriken dan menambahkan kulit kayu gaharu selama 3 hari. Para penjual memiliki alasan yang beragam ketika menjual tuak maupun bahan bakunya. Selain harganya lebih tinggi dari gula merah juga karena alasan pribadi dan ekonomis lainnya serta proses pengolahannya yang lebih mudah. Masyarakat yang suka meminum tuak mengetahui bahwa tuak itu memabukkan dalam jumlah tertentu tetapi mereka meminumnya hanya untuk memanaskan tubuh dan menghilangkan rasa penat. Dalam konsep hadd al-syurb, mengkonsumsi tuak sebagai zat yang memabukkan adalah haram dan dihukum hudud orang yang meminumnya. Tetapi orang yang memperjualbelikannya tidak dihukum hudud karena dalil Sunah hanya menyebut jual belinya sebagai perbuatan yang dilaknat.
