Food security is an important issue at present, moreover when it affects the National concept
of food sovereignty. Among several food issues, transgenic foods is one main issue to
be taken into account since the distribution of transgenic foods has considerably increased
alsongsid in proportion to the elevation of people’s consumption volume. This paper aims to
describe and explain the normative concept available in Indonesia on providing a framework
for transgenic foods. By exploring the legal framework, it will show the ongoing and
relevant discourse of legal issues in transgenic food. Several regulations are available to regulate
the transgenic food in Indonesia, however lack of implementation as well as law enforcement
have acted as its main obstacles.
