Kebijakan Indonesia Terhadap Perkembangan Olahraga Elektronik (E-Sports) Di Dunia
Playing online games has now developed into a professional competition that is
internationally recognized. Indonesia as an actor in the international world also cannot
avoid the impact of the development of e-Sports. The development of e-Sports in
Indonesia can open up good opportunities, but can also be a threat if it is not handled
properly by the Indonesian government. Therefore, this study was made to find out what
policies will be taken by the Indonesian government to deal with the development of e-
Sports in the world.
This study uses a descriptive qualitative method, along with a Globalist
perspective and the Concept of Foreign Policy by K.J Holsti. The use of a Globalist
perspective is considered very relevant to the issues discussed by researchers, because
basically the development of e-Sports is an issue of globalization. Then the concept of
Foreign Policy is used to examine the policies taken by the Indonesian government in
dealing with the development of e-Sports.
Based on the data that the authors collect, Indonesia has made a series of policies
to deal with the development of e-Sports in the world. First, Indonesia formed an official
body that regulates e-Sports in Indonesia, namely the Indonesia e-Sports Association
(IeSPA). Second, Indonesia issued a Regulation of the Minister of Communication and
Information on the Classification of Electronic Interactive Games. The three Indonesians
are also developing digital infrastructure to support the development of e-Sports in
Indonesia through the Palapa Ring and Base Transceiver Station projects. Finally,
Indonesia is also developing an e-Sports ecosystem in Indonesia by providing support to
Indonesian game developers, as well as organizing national and international
tournaments.
Although the policies taken by the government are quite lagging behind other
countries, the Indonesian government remains committed and makes efforts to support
the development of e-Sports in Indonesia.
Key Words: Game Online, e-Sports, Indonesian Foreign Policy.
