PIBEL led a three-year project during 2000-2003 to help Indonesia implement its new competition law and understand the law's links to trade and market access.  The project was funded by over $880,000 in grants from U.S. AID.

Among the project's many activities were training sessions in Indonesia for senior Indonesian government officials and judges, including the Indonesian Supreme Court.  The projecy also included two U.S.-Indonesian conferences held at Georgetown University Law Center, a lecture series at ten universities in seven cities throughout Indonesia, a bilingual website, visits to the United States by Indonesian officials and academics, and a number of market studies in Indonesia.

Georgetown was the lead partner in a partnership with two Indonesian non-profit entities: the Partnership for Business Competition and the Center for Indonesian Law and Policy Studies. The members of these two groups are law professors and economists (mostly in their 30's and 40's) from five of the best universities in Indonesia, as well as a few Indonesian officials. These individuals are committed to democratic and economic reform.
