Abstract

Indonesia is one of the countries that has a cigarette community, it becomes a problem when the packaging on cigarettes does not provide accurate information, this certainly blames consumer protection. This study aims to delineate consumer protection measures regarding tobacco cigarette circulation without providing accurate information. Conducted in a normative framework. The findings suggest that legal protection for cigarette consumers who receive unclear or inaccurate information on cigarette product packaging can encompass preventive and repressive legal measures. Preventive measures are outlined in PP No. 109 of 2012 and PERMENKES No. 28 of 2013, specifically in Article 4 sub-articles c and i. Conversely, repressive measures enable individuals to file complaints with the Consumer Dispute Settlement Agency (known as BPSK) or initiate lawsuits. Furthermore, the responsibility of business actors to provide accurate information is underscored by Decision Number 32/Pid.B/2021/Pt. Pbr. This responsibility extends not only to distributors but also to cigarette manufacturers, such as PT. Leadon International, found in violation of various regulations, including Article 8 paragraph (1) sub-paragraphs a I, and j of the Godrej Consumer Products Limited (GCPL), in conjunction with Article 14 of Government Regulation Number 109 of 2012, and Article 10 paragraph (2) sub-paragraph a and paragraph (3) of PERMENKES No.28 of 2013. Sanctions for producers should adhere to Article 19, in conjunction with Article 62 paragraph (1) of the GCPL. At the same time, distributors face reprimands for product withdrawals as stipulated in Article 60 paragraph (3) of PP No. 109 of 2012.

Abstract

Background: In fact, there are still many students with disabilities who do not get their rights in schools with adequate facilities and infrastructure. Purpose: This study examines how consumer protection efforts are carried out by four (4) high schools in North Bekasi District based on Bekasi Regional Regulation Number 16 of 2019 concerning the Protection and Fulfilment of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and Consumer Protection Obstacles faced by four high schools in North Bekasi District based on Bekasi Regional Regulation Number 16 of 2019. Methods: This research is normative, based on secondary and primary data gathered through direct interviews with the authorities in four (4) high schools in Bekasi. Findings: The interesting findings are that consumer protection efforts to protect and fulfill the rights of persons with disabilities are still not fully implemented. Related, the fulfillment of the right to inclusive education has been fully implemented but is inversely proportional to the implementation of accessibility. The obstacles faced in realizing consumer protection for students with disabilities are in fulfilling accessibility, both non-physical and physical accessibility. Conclusions: This study shows that although consumer protection efforts to fulfill the rights of persons with disabilities in four high schools in North Bekasi District have been carried out, their implementations are still not fully effective, especially for accessibility. Although the right to inclusive education has been fulfilled, significant challenges remain in ensuring adequate physical and non-physical accessibility. Research implication: The study is expected to provide input to the local government of Bekasi and other local governments on paying attention to the rights of people with disabilities in schools, both facilities and pre-facilities, to provide comfort and the rights of citizens as mandated in the constitution of justice for the entire nation of Indonesia.

Abstract

The rapid development of the business world has resulted in several changes to business actors in carrying out their business activities. This encourages the emergence of standard agreements as practicality in conducting transactions. This study aims to analyze consumer protection law and apply the principles of freedom of contract in standard agreements in online and retail financial services businesses—the descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques using in-depth interviews and documentation studies. Informants were selected by purposive sampling. The results show that standard clauses have been regulated in Article 18 of the Consumer Protection Law. However, in practice, clauses are still found that violate and transfer responsibility to the detriment of consumers. Furthermore, regarding consumer dispute resolution, there is an overlap issue between the Financial Services Authority (OJK) and the Consumer Dispute Resolution Agency (BPSK). Therefore, if viewed from the principle of freedom of contract, the standard agreement cannot fulfill the principle of freedom of contract, and consumer protection, so especially in the financial services sector and retail, needs to increase preventive and repressive supervision by providing several alternatives dispute resolutions for disadvantaged consumers.

Abstract

The existence of a consumer protection law and the ratification of the CRPD by the Indonesian government is expected to guarantee the safety and comfort of consumers, including persons with disabilities. Therefore, the problem of comparative regulation and institutional, as well as the supervision of the implementation of public services for persons with disabilities, is raised in Indonesia and Australia. Australia was chosen as a comparison because this country already has a comprehensive protection system for persons with disabilities and is fully committed to providing public service facilities. This research is a prescriptive normative research using secondary data consisting of primary legal materials and secondary legal materials. This study concludes that similar to Indonesia, the formation of regulations and policies in Australia in the public service sector for persons with disabilities has reached a technical level and is carried out in a coordinated manner between the center and the regions. The basic difference is that the institutional system that handles the planning, implementation, and supervision of public services for persons with disabilities in Indonesia is separated into various ministries and/or agencies so that it requires strengthening synergies at the central and regional levels so that the implementation of public services is guaranteed optimally.

Abstract

Drinking water is water that has been processed to meet health standard regulations. However, some water can be consumed directly without several processes if it meets health safety requirements. This research aims to ensure the safety, health, and hygiene of unbranded refilled drinking water by looking at the quality of the drinking water content following SNI (Indonesian National Standard) standards and providing recommendations to the government to protect consumers of unbranded drinking water. This research applied qualitative methods through data collection techniques Focus Group Discussion (FGD), literature studies, and field observations in Semarang and Balikpapan. This study found that some refilled drinking water depots violated applicable safety regulations. However, no legal sanctions were applied for the business actors who violated it, and no regional regulations or Mayer Regulations regulate the unbranded refilled drinking water. Therefore, efforts need to be made to foster actors, educate consumers to be smart in choosing drinking water, and the establishment of implementing regulations from the Regulation of the Minister of Health Number 492 of 2010 in supervising business actors from this research is expected to be an effort to increase consumer protection in Indonesia.
