29 Indonesian Musicians File Lawsuit on March 7, 2025, to Revise 2014 Copyright Law at Mahkamah Konstitusi

A group of 29 prominent Indonesian musicians, including Ariel Noah, have filed a lawsuit with the Constitutional Court (Mahkamah Konstitusi) seeking to revise the 2014 Copyright Law (UU Hak Cipta).

The lawsuit was formally submitted on March 7, 2025, and aims to address concerns about the current copyright framework that the musicians believe hampers their ability to perform freely.
