Abstract

The Indonesian football league has been devastated greatly because of match-fixing, a problem that has caused the decline of the country’s achievements in international events. The ongoing mechanism of using sports law or lex sportiva is considered ineffective because it provides no deterrent effect on offenders. The country may learn from Australia, who has gained many international sports achievements by previously eradicating match-fixing in sports, including football. Australia has included match-fixing among acts of sports corruption, and offenders may be sanctioned both by receiving criminal punishment from a law authority and disciplinary sanction from a sport or football authority. To prevent and address the involvement of gambling syndicates in many instances of match-fixing in football matches, the country has enacted a national policy on the codes of conduct and anti-match-fixing measures in sports and established a special unit to coordinate the law authority and sports authority. Although it has a different system of law, Indonesia may learn from Australia in eradicating match-fixing in football and may have many great achievements in international events as a result.

Bahasa Abstract

Liga Sepakbola di Indonesia secara keseluruhan telah mengalami masalah dengan pengaturan skor (match-fixing) yang menyebabkan merosotnya prestasi di tingkat internasional. Mekanisme selama ini dengan menggunakan “Hukum Olahraga” atau Lex Sportiva dianggap tidak effektif oleh karena tidak memberikan efek pencegahan dan jera bagi para pelaku. Belajar dari Australia yang telah mencatatkan banyak prestasi di kancah Internasional bagaimana telah berhasil memberantas praktek pengaturan skor di seluruh cabang olahraga termasuk sepakbola. Australia telah memasukkan pengaturan skor ke dalam korupsi dalam bidang olahraga di mana para pelaku mendapat sanksi pidana yang tegas dari penegak hukum dan sanksi internal dari otoritas olahraga. Oleh karena pengaturan skor sangat dekat dengan perjudian dari organisasi mafia, untuk menjaga integritas cabang olahraga dalam hal ini sepakbola dilakukan dengan menjaga integritas dari praktek perjudian olahraga yang ada dan dengan diadakannya kebijakan nasional terhadap perilaku athlete dan aturan anti pengaturan skor juga satu badan khusus yang mengkoordinasi penegak hukum dan otoritas olahraga (NISU). Walau berbeda system hukum, Indonesia bisa mencontoh Australia di dalam memberantas pengaturan skor dalam olahraga sepakbola dan mencapai prestasi olahraga yang terbaik di tingkat Internasional.
