Abstract

Government of the Republic of Indonesia has declared that 2018 is the year of Geographical Indication (GI). Riau Province has its registered GI product; Rangsang Meranti Liberika Coffee originating from West Kedabu Village, Rangsang Pesisir Subdistrict, Kepulauan Meranti Regency, Riau Province. This paper will analyze on how is the legal protection towards registered GI of Rangsang Meranti Liberika Coffee according to Law No. 20 of 2016 concerning Trademark and Geographical Indication andwhat are the constraints in legal protection towards GIon coffee according to Law No. 20 of 2016. The researchers used direct observation and interviews with local public and private actors and supported secondary data sourced from primary legal materials in the form of regulations related to Trademark and GI as well as secondary legal material. From the study can be concluded that the program of Indonesian Government relatedto the registration andprotection of GI, especially in Riau Province, can be said to be not optimal because there is no registration of GI from each district in Riau Province, also the GI Managing Group of Rangsang Meranti LiberikaCoffee (MPKLRM)thinks that legal protection by the government to the productis lacking because it was not following Article 70 of Law No. 20 of 2016 as well as incomplete regulatory instruments. Further, lack of information regarding Rangsang Meranti LiberikaCoffee to local people alsolead to lack of knowledge of the coffee.
