Mostly the opinion formed by a system guiding human being in assessing a relation or action, this system referred as " ethics."

Ethics represent a systematic will through using reason to learn the forms of moral and moral choices conducted by somebody in running relation with the others. In discussion about business ethics, approach dot have to be focussed to a certain situation and group, for example environment of technique business evaluate instructed to deed exist in environment having business target.

If ethics word related to business word will become the business ethic. in the following is some defintion of business ethics :

Business ethics is a form of applied ethics that examines ethical principles and moral or ethical problems that arise in a business environment. It applies to all aspects of business conduct and is relevant to the conduct of individuals and business organizations as a whole. Applied ethics is a field of ethics that deals with ethical questions in many fields such as medical, technical, legal and business ethics.

(business ethics). Steade et al (1984: 701) in the book ”Business, Its Natura and Environment And ie Introduction” ”business ethics is ethical standards that concern both the ends and means of business decision making”.

The definition of business Ethics of according to Business & Society - Ethics And Stakeholder Management Caroll & Buchholtz): Ethics is the discipline that deals with what is good and bad and with moral duty and obligation. Ethics can also be regarded as a set of moral principles or values. Morality is a doctrine or system of moral conduct. Moral conduct refers to that which relates to principles of right and wrong in behavior. Business ethics, therefore, is concerned with good and bad or right and wrong behavior that takes place within a business context. Concepts of right and wrong are increasingly being interpreted today to include the more difficult and subtle questions of fairness, justice, and equity.

By reading opinion above, we know that there a lot of definition about business ethic. That is necessary for business perpetrator is how to place the ethics at dimiciling proper in business activity. The duty of business Perpetrator is orient at moral norm. In doing his/her everyday activity is he/she tries to stay in the framework ' ethical', that is whose harmless even also morally.

Common Approach under consideration problem of business ethics can be started by raising question: " whether a company runs business, as legal body, representing legal body of public or privat legal body? This differentiation is needed, because when we look into company as legal body privat, hence company can be considered as subjek law the privat, despitefully, when we look into company as public legal body, hence this circumstance become on the contrary, company have the obligation not merely to its stockholder, but also to society of generally, they have the common obligation to public though they finally profit to be accepted will decrease. According to this view, all decision taken by a company become the object for assessment by society, and have to be canceled if in the reality does not fulfill the standard determined in general.

In everyday business activity is very easy to mention the business ethics, difficult but once to apply it. In business environment which progressively kompetitive, often business ethics left solely for pursue the big advantage and raise money as much as possible. In fact often happen that entrepreneur which always runs its business by conducting action which oppose against the ethics conducting deception, indisposed emulation, insincere business, and conduct the " theft", but have never been caught and become rich. On the contrary, there are entrepreneur running business fully ethics, but later;then have the child suffering from leukemia, and among other things which loss caused by its merger company.

Converse to hit the business ethics, insufficient only with studying theory which is in general embraced a business perpetrator however also require to study the applying and its execution in practicing business, invesment, even in everyday life. In the following is some illustration of concerning ethics practice in so many life facet, is when paid attention to exhaustively will look the symptom strive the evasion realized or not conducted by some of society member :

a. Hateful But Buy, The Case Timor ( Mobnas)

Hateful but buy the project of car ‘Timor’ called the project Mobnas ( national car) by most Indonesian society considered to be project of law smuggling conducted outspokenly, and perhaps conduct collision in various area of law, start from taxation until international law which is the company of indonesia with WTO ( World Trade Organization). But, unanswerable that on the otherhand car Timor is saleable car in the market.

b. Anti Bank - Deposit Pros

When crisis start to knock over the Indonesia, many people screaming anti konglomerat but on the otherhand some of them race to money deposit in bank own the konglomerat. When expressed the case opening badness bank in Indonesia, most of all people look into cynically to bank own the konglomerat and assume that the bank represent one of economics crisis of Indonesia. But on the otherhand, in large numbers people enter their money in the deposit because of high interest at that time.

c. Hate The Company, Buy the Share

Other Example is there are numbers of people who suggest for not smoking, a lot hate the cigarette, but we see the fact that company share of cigarette have the biggest capitalisasion Stock Exchange, and people race to buy the company share of cigarette.

d. Child Exploitation In Business - advertisement, entertainment amusement, film

For a while most of all people scream about children protection, in advertisement on television use children progressively. Exploit the child still represent the very matter seldom be paid attention to in Indonesia, and surely for businessmen. Progressively the hoisterous of advertisement on television using child, even baby, as too attract consumer, designating bad condition walke the society opinion in its bearing with the ethics. Mostly society not yet earned to differentiate the exploitation with the advantage pursuit which is not impinge the business ethics.

Business practice run during the time still tend to to disregard the ethics, sense of justice and is very often coloured by the practice of business is not praised or moral hazard. Corruption, colusi, and nepotism which progressively extend in previous society only in storey level center and now extend to area.

This matter is indication that in this part of our society have caused the moral crisis by allowing all interest to be way of to reach the target, both individual target and also group target for the eksistensi of group continueing. all these Therapy is the understanding of, implementation and invesment of ethics and moral values to all business perpetrator and all political elite.

In relation to business ethics, especially business base on the Moslem law, understanding of all perpetrator the effort to economics of Moslem law during the time is still in a mood for side " emotional" and sometimes overrule the context of itself business. Though market segment from Moslem law economics is wide enough, both banking and also Moslem law insurance. Examplize the, conventional market segment, even does not " recognized" Moslem law system, but its potency is high enough. Concerning the business ethics implementation, some perpetrator have the ability to apply the the business ethics. But, because of understanding from each perpetrator about the business ethics difference during the time, hence the implementation is also differencen, existence of Ethics and moral of somebody or a group of people very depend on quality of social system. Although somebody or a group of people can try to control the quality of their moral and ethics, but as variable is easy can change to influence of quality of social system, quality of ethics and moral of anybody or a group of alterable people at any times.

To see the existing fact practice of business in this time, that tend to to disregard the ethics, and take no account of the society hence in creating business ethics, there are some matters which require to be paid attention to, for example : perpetrator of related party and business are able to have a command over the them selves in order not to obtain anything from whoever and in whatever form,Business perpetrator can develop the social responsibility to vinicity society, Maintaining spirit and is not easy to be unsolved of fast information growth and technologi, Creating healthy emulation , Applying concept " continuing development” where business perpetrator claimed not exploit environment, Avoiding the nature of 5K ( Katabelece, Hanky-Panky, Koneksi, Kolusi And Commission , Able to express that real correct real correct, Grow the attitude of doing among strong entrepreneur faction and weak entrepreneur faction., consecuen and consistent with the rule which have been agreed together, Creating the Awareness and sense of belonging to what have been agreed on, It is need the existence of some of business ethics poured in a positive law which is in the form of law and regulation.

Manifestly, behavior of business of having ethics to reflect th law added the action of society ethics, moral ( ethics), and its values. The innings formulation law to follow a action of society ethics and its result in per farm emerge two, that is the existence of a relation " give-and take" among " legal"and what " way of ethics". If moral represents people impeller to conduct the kindliness, hence ethics act as the fringes ( sign) representing agreement ready from all members of group. Business world which has moral will be able to develop the ethics directive guaranting well-balanced business activity, harmonic, and compatible. Ethics as fringe in a society group will be able to guide and remind its member to a laudable action ( good conduct) which must be always obeyed and executed. Ethics in business of course have to be agreed on by people who stay in the business group and also other related group. Of course in this case, to realize the ethics in have business need the transparent discussion among all party, ie entrepreneur, government, and also society nation not to only one just party running ethics whereas other party tread on to what they want. Its meaning, if related parties which do not know and agree the existence of moral and ethics, it’s clear what agreed on by mentioned business circle will never be realized. So, to yield an ethics in doing business guaranting the existence of caring between one party and other party need the discussing of global instructing to a harmless order whoever in economics.
