Water is a gift from God Almighty that is given to all living things, especially
humans for their survival. Water is an object that has a very high economic
value, therefore it is not surprising that many business actors, both government
and private, make it a staple in business activities. One of them is the Bottled
Drinking Water (AMDK) business. However, in practice, often the
commercialization of water that is carried out does not guarantee human rights,
especially Article 28H which regulates the fulfillment and provision of public
facilities and health facilities and economic principles based on the
constitution. Based on this explanation, the authors write with the type of
normative legal research and obtain primary data sources in the form of
legislation and secondary data sources, namely library studies and interviews
with resource persons, namely the Head of the Cleo Pure Water Depot Cilacap
and the Reverse Osmosis (RO) Staff of the Water Company. Drinking Area
Tirta Wijaya Cilacap. The results of the research that the author has done are
that commercialization is an economic activity that is often seen as an activity
that has negative implications for the public interest carried out by business
actors, in this case, bottled drinking water business actors. AMDK business
actors in commercializing drinking water must be based on the public interest,
in accordance with economic principles and guaranteeing the fulfillment of
human rights, especially Article 28H of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic
of Indonesia.
