If the business climate conditions are not conducive, it will affect the stability of the business world, and can even cause business actors to suffer losses, which results in the capability and credibility of business actors in carrying out their business activities being disrupted, and can even result in bankruptcy. To maintain the smooth running of their business, business actors must obtain guaranteed protection through legal instruments established by the government.
