Terminology of ‘Judicial Mafia’ or ‘Trial Mafia’ ironically has been added into Indonesian dictionary since a long time ago. However, the terminology is not only just a figment or slander. In fact, its present has been confirmed by the establishment of the Judicial Mafia Eradication Task Force by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono during his rezim. Lately, some important events have occurred in Indonesian judiciary organs. The events are undeniable facts that it is crystal clear that the process of inquiry, investigation, prosecution, and penitentiary in civil or criminal trial can be manipulated. Based on the author’s participatory observation during his service at the Judicial Commission, it is known that the welfare improvement program for judges, which was manifested by the Judicial Commission, Government and Parliament of the Republic of Indonesia in the form of increased allowances of judges, has not been able to significantly erode the corrupt behavior of some unscrupulousgreedy judges.Therefore, in order to respond to the objective conditions that occur lately, the President of the Republic of Indonesia has to 9establish Policy Package on Law Reformation for judicial authorities in Supreme Court. The establishment is a conditio sine qua non to save Indonesian law enforcement conditions which already losing its direction. In conclusion, restructurisation and reformation of the whole field of trial process and also to the whole range of the judicial power can no longer be delayed; otherwise law enforcement in this country cannot survive.
