The case of conspiracy to obtain company secrets belonging to PT Chiyoda Kogyo Indonesia committed by PT Maruka Indonesia, Hiroo Yoshida, and PT Unique Solutions Indonesia highlights an important issue because in the verdict, not all of the reported parties were found guilty of violations. The main focus of this study is to analyze the violation of Article 23 of Law Number 5 of 1999 by the Respondents and to determine the use of the Single Economic Entity (SEE) doctrine in assessing the connection and responsibility of the Respondents. The research was conducted using a case approach, a conceptual approach, and a legislative approach using sources of legislation, books, and journals. The results of the study show that the use of the SEE doctrine makes it possible for all respondents, and Maruka Corporation, to be held accountable as a single entity for violating Article 23 of Law Number 5 of 1999, mainly due to indications of integration of interests through the establishment of PT Unique Solutions Indonesia, Hiroo Yoshida's position as a strategic liaison, and the interconnection of corporate structures within the Maruka group. This study demonstrates how the SEE doctrine could expand corporate liability in Indonesian competition law enforcement, offering a framework to close accountability gaps left by strict adherence to separate legal entity principles.
