Abstract
The case of foreigners who manipulate marriage document in order to run businesses in Indonesia oftentimes happen and it is no longer a secret, causing a lot of issues as well as affecting the parties involved. The real purpose for them is to run businesses instead of marrying Indonesians. The issue regarding marriage document by manipulating their Permanent Stay Permit Card needs to have a careful and thorough attention from the government by eradicating the manipulation of marriage document of foreigners who are marrying Indonesians. The government also needs to tackle this issue to prevent foreigners dominating businesses in Indonesia and to keep Indonesian citizens being ^the first citizen^ in their own country. The ease of immigration to increase the foreign exchange earnings in the tourism sector for foreigners who are planning to visit Indonesia must be implemented with strict supervision.
The objective of this research is to encourage Indonesian government to legislate against foreigners who are marrying Indonesian to comply with the Law, in this case the Law concerning Foreign Investment.
This research is conducted by using descriptive and qualitative research methods as well as analyzing the relevant Law especially Indonesia^s Marriage Law.
To overcome this issue, we need the support from the government by educating people through counseling, supervising, and conducting strict actions done by the law enforcement officials to protect the business players like Indonesian micro, small, and medium enterprises.
