In this article we describe underlying values and viurutes unearthed from researching the criminal policy of reforming Indonesian exsisting criminal law towards a new ndonesian Criminal Law as manifested in the Preliminary Criminal Law or the Bill 2018. At the time of writing this article, the Bill is still under deliberation by the Indonesian People Representative (DPR-RI). The drafting of this Law, called the Draft Criminal Code or we will named it the Bill for this article, is to replace Law No. 1 of 1946 concerning Regulation on Criminal Law (KUHP ) with all changes. This design is one of the efforts to realise an idea of a developing national criminal law (code) of the Republic. From the perspective of Dignified Justice Theory the reform effort is carried out in a directed and integrated manner (systemic) so that it can support national development in various fields, in accordance with the demands and the level of legal awareness and dynamics that have been emerged in the community or the nation.
