Is Pink Cocaine / Tusi legal in Indonesia?

Also known as: tucibi, tusibi, tuci

Legal status

Not a listed substance in itself under Indonesia's Undang-Undang Nomor 35 Tahun 2009 tentang Narkotika: no entry of its own; the answer depends on what the powder contains. Pink cocaine, tusi, has no entry in any of the seven current golongan because it is not a substance. What is in it decides the answer, and the common constituents fall in three different places: cocaine and MDMA are Golongan I narcotics, methoxetamine is Golongan I at item 102, and ketamine, which is frequently the main ingredient, is in none of the seven current golongan at all. The model: each Act carries its own list for the first time only, and every change since is a Ministerial regulation. Pasal 6(1) of Undang-Undang Nomor 35 Tahun 2009 tentang Narkotika divides narcotics into Golongan I, II and III. Pasal 6(2) then provides that 「Penggolongan Narkotika sebagaimana dimaksud pada ayat (1) untuk pertama kali ditetapkan sebagaimana tercantum dalam Lampiran I dan merupakan bagian yang tak terpisahkan dari Undang-Undang ini」, so the Act's own annex governs only the first classification. The empowering article is Pasal 6(3): 「Ketentuan mengenai perubahan penggolongan Narkotika sebagaimana dimaksud pada ayat (2) diatur dengan Peraturan Menteri」. The psychotropics Act is built the same way: Pasal 2(3) of Undang-Undang Nomor 5 Tahun 1997 tentang Psikotropika sets the four golongan 「untuk pertamakali」 in its annex and Pasal 2(4) provides that 「Ketentuan lebih lanjut untuk penetapan dan perubahan jenis-jenis psikotropika sebagaimana dimaksud pada ayat (3) diatur oleh Menteri」. So neither Act's annex is the operative list today. The narcotics list in force is the Lampiran to Peraturan Menteri Kesehatan Nomor 15 Tahun 2025 tentang Perubahan Penggolongan Narkotika, ditetapkan 21 November 2025, diundangkan 28 November 2025, Berita Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 2025 Nomor 989, which revoked Permenkes Nomor 7 Tahun 2025. The psychotropics list in force is the Lampiran to Peraturan Menteri Kesehatan Nomor 14 Tahun 2025 tentang Penetapan dan Perubahan Penggolongan Psikotropika, Berita Negara Tahun 2025 Nomor 988, which revoked Permenkes Nomor 6 Tahun 2025. The Act itself was last amended by Undang-Undang Nomor 6 Tahun 2023. One part of the scheme is still in the Act and not in any regulation: the Prekursor Narkotika in Lampiran II, Tabel I and Tabel II, which neither Permenkes restates.

Consequences if caught

Capital exposure: not established. The narcotics offences are built from the conduct and not from the quantity, and the quantity only raises the band. Pasal 111 covers growing, keeping, possessing, storing, controlling or providing a Golongan I narcotic in plant form; Pasal 112 the same conduct for a Golongan I narcotic not in plant form; Pasal 113 producing, importing, exporting or distributing; Pasal 114 offering for sale, selling, buying, receiving, brokering, exchanging or delivering; Pasal 115 carrying, sending, transporting or transiting; Pasal 116 using it on another person or giving it to another to use. Pasal 117 to 121 repeat that structure for Golongan II and Pasal 122 to 126 for Golongan III, at descending penalties. The raising quantity is more than 5 grammes for anything not in plant form, and more than 1 kilogramme or more than 5 plants for a Golongan I narcotic in plant form. Nothing in the Act applies a purity discount, so the weight charged is the weight of the material seized. Pasal 127 is separate and much lighter: a Penyalah Guna, a person using for himself, faces at most 4 years for Golongan I, 2 years for Golongan II and 1 year for Golongan III, and Pasal 127(3) requires medical and social rehabilitation where the person is proved to be a victim of abuse rather than a dealer. So a sample can be a capital matter or no narcotics offence at all, and the buyer cannot know which. A powder that is mostly ketamine with no listed substance engages neither Act. The same powder with any cocaine or MDMA in it is a Golongan I narcotic, and because Indonesia has no purity rule the whole weight of the mixture counts toward the five gram line, not just the listed part. Indonesia has no provision charging a mixture at the grade of its worst component, but it does not need one when the whole weight is charged. Both can reach a given sample and neither reaches the name, because this is a mixture and not a substance. Where the powder contains cocaine, MDMA or methoxetamine, each is a Golongan I narcotic and Pasal 113(2) and Pasal 114(2) make production, import, export, distribution and the sale limb capital above 5 grammes, in the words 「pidana mati, pidana penjara seumur hidup, atau pidana penjara paling singkat 5 (lima) tahun dan paling lama 20 (dua puluh) tahun」. Where it contains only ketamine, which is in none of the seven current golongan, neither Act engages at all. Indonesia has no provision charging a mixture at the grade of its worst component and does not need one, because with no purity rule anywhere the whole weight of the powder counts toward the 5 grammes. Possession is not capital in any case: Pasal 112(2) tops out at life. One point about enforcement rather than about the statute, and it is flagged as such because it is not sourced to any of the instruments cached for this cell: Indonesia is reported to have carried out no drug executions for several years while continuing to impose the sentence, and clemency has commuted some sentences to life. None of that changes the text above, and a pause in executions is not a change in the law. Treat the sentence as available and real. [Certain] Re-derived in this pass: Permenkes 15/2025 and 14/2025 were read and no entry for this substance was located under the names searched. That is an unresolved search and not a finding of absence: the lists print chemical names and a name not searched for is a name not found.

If prescribed or medical

There is no medical use and no registration for any such preparation.

Documentation

No document authorises it. The name describes a colour, not a formula, and the legal exposure changes completely between two bags sold as the same thing.

Drug laws and enforcement change and vary within a country. This is not legal advice. Always confirm with Indonesia’s embassy or official drug authority before traveling; penalties can be severe, including imprisonment.
