Abstract
A dispute between two or more countries involved in a foreign investment may arises<br />from investment agreement agreed upon by the parties. If one of the parties breaches<br />the agreement, the parties will automatically agree to resolve the dispute to the agreed<br />arbitration forum based on the dispute settlement clause on the agreement, those<br />forum such as the ICSID arbitration. Therefore, the existence of dispute settlement<br />clause on an investment agreement (Bilateral Investment Treaty) is very necessary.<br />The result of the above-mentioned arbitration proceeding is a binding and final<br />decision for the parties. An arbitral award, should contain relief or compensation<br />set by the arbitrator as the result of the proceeding. The reliefs are given as orders to<br />indemnify the damages obtained by Claimant. Issues arises when Respondent has been<br />proven to have done detrimental damage to the Claimant yet Respondent deliberately<br />neglected his/her obligation to compensate Claimant accordingly based on the relief/<br />compensation specified in the award. The non-compliance of the Respondent to<br />fulfill the compensation obligation is due to the fact that the party habitually assume<br />that the arbitration award does not have the legal force equivalent to the decision<br />of general court, even though the nature of the award is final and binding. Thus the<br />interests and rights of the Applicant who has been declared entitled to compensation<br />based on the arbitration award must be protected so that their rights can be fulfilled<br />according to the law.
