Analysis of Regulation and Policy on Biosafety and Likelihood of Transgenic Seeds Adoption in Indonesia. Edwin S. Saragih, Santun R.P. Sitorus, Harianto, and Sugiono Moeljopawiro. Since more than 10 years, a number of works in field of modern biotechnology have been programmed in public research institutes and universities in Indonesia and few foreign companies have put efforts in introducing transgenic varieties. This significant development raises intriguing question as to why there has not been any transgenic food crop seed planted by farmers in the country. A status quo was observed in which regulatory regime on biosafety has been in a situation of prolonged transitional phase and necessary institutional framework has not been firmly in place. There were distinguished lines among stakeholders on benefit awareness, risks perception and worry on multinational companies’ control over seed supply. There is a fair expectation that similar benefits experienced by adopting countries could also help increase food production in Indonesia. However, potential contribution of transgenic seeds for the country is still largely unexplored. There are numbers of potential transgenic seeds namely transgenic rice, soybean, potato, tomato and corn, with the latter would show slightly better likelihood of success once adoption happens. Decision making instrument as determinant factor in ensuring safe application and release of transgenic seeds has not yet existed despite the fact that capacity for biosafety assessment conduct is undoubtedly sufficient. It is important to note that the new regulation on biosafety (PP No. 21/2005) open opportunities for assessing transgenic product under a transitional clause. Nonetheless, the new regulation has not been able securing food safety statement of imported transgenic products (especially corn and soybean) which have been used for domestic consumption.
