Studi Komparasi Formulasi Tindak Pidana Pencucian Uang Di Indonesia Dan Malaysia

Abstract

The crime of money laundering can tarnish the life of the nation and state because this crime can endanger the stability and security of the community. This study aims to examine problems regarding the formulation of money laundering crime policies (Money Laundering) in Indonesia and Malaysia, which is basically to design policies for formulating money laundering crimes in Indonesia in the future. This study uses a normative legal research method with a comparative approach. Based on the results of research and discussion, it is known that the crime of money laundering in both countries has been enforced by the existence of laws that regulate it properly. Then it was found that there are striking differences in the predicate offense, and criminal sanctions of the two laws. These differences occur because laws are made and adapted to the circumstances of each country and the goals achieved by that country. The conclusion of this research is that the policy on money laundering offenses in Indonesia needs to be updated, especially in Article 3, Article 4, Article 5, Article 8 and Article 69 of the Money Laundering Law.
