Abstract

This paper explains that in the case of the Corona(Covid-19) pandemic in Indonesia, many Muslim scholars and clerics differed in their response to the Corona outbreak, in which they give a different perspective that confuses people who do not really understand the Islamic teachings associated with this Corona outbreak. However, in the context of the responses of Muslimscholars toward Corona pandemic, it is recognized that the effort to overcome the Corona pandemic (Covid-19) through Medicine and Pharmacy is a human endeavor to strive for human safety in the world. This effort continues even though it is not easy. But many Muslim scholars and religious circles react emotionally and the leaders of these religious organizations will cause many followers or worshipers or members who then no longer believe or are pessimistic and lose confidence in certain sects. The government also cannot take advantage of this opportunity to make the direction of change more rational, more humane and civilized. Though this opportunity for change is available quite often in the span of productive power. In this context, many social scientists, especially anthropologists, have researched extraordinary drastic changes due to epidemics, pandemics or natural disasters, both due to human error and due to extreme pandemics and extreme natural changes. Indonesia as a developing country now is undergoing many unplanned drastic changes, and because of this, many social changes occur irregularly and without direction at all.

Abstract

The persistent and unique threat posed by the Negara Islam Indonesia (NII) network, characterized by its long-term strategy of societal infiltration and the establishment of a parallel state, demands specific and adaptive law enforcement strategies. This article, which adopts a qualitative descriptive-analytical research method, examines the various legal and operational approaches employed by Indonesian law enforcement agencies in countering the NII. The analysis focuses on the application of existing laws, including anti-terrorism legislation and other relevant criminal codes, to address the NII’s distinct activities that often fall outside the conventional understanding of terrorism. The paper also investigates the intelligence-gathering techniques, surveillance methods, and arrest procedures utilized to target NII cells and leadership, considering the challenges posed by the network’s decentralized and clandestine nature. Furthermore, it evaluates the effectiveness and legality of these law enforcement strategies, exploring issues related to due process, human rights, and the potential for overreach. By analyzing specific cases and broader trends, this research aims to provide a critical assessment of the current law enforcement response to the NII in Indonesia, highlighting both successes and areas for improvement in addressing this complex and enduring security challenge.

Abstract

This article discusses the problems of the Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang, People's Republic of China, who have experienced mistreatment and violence from the communist regimes of Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, Zhu Rongji, and Xi Jinping. Despite facing this treatment, the Uyghur Muslim minority has received criticism and negative labels for their resistance. The world community has also shown little attention to the Uyghur issue. This article aims to reveal the dynamics among Uyghur Muslims as they shift from nationalistic interests to their participation in acts of terrorism. This article uses a descriptive-analytical qualitative method based on data obtained from interviews, documents and literature studies. This article also explores the novelty of this topic by discussing the impact and implications of Uyghur Muslim involvement in global jihadist groups. For example, this article shows that thousands of Uyghur Muslims have become diasporas in other countries (Turkey, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Middle East, Southeast Asia, etc.) seeking solutions to their problems, while being in a difficult and disadvantageous position . This article also explores the magnitude and extent of the activities and presence of Uyghur Muslims in Indonesia, such as in Aceh, Jakarta and Papua.

Abstract

 This article aims to explore the involvement of the Al-Qaeda network in Southeast Asia at the beginning of the 21st century. As an international terrorist organization with sufficient financial and human resources, Al-Qaeda's arrival in Southeast Asia came as a major shock to the local communities affected by it—an injustice caused by the capitalist regimes in the region. The methods used in writing this article are case studies and historical analysis. This article will provide specific examples of Al-Qaeda involvement in several countries in Southeast Asia, such as the case in Poso, Indonesia, where Al-Qaeda members Omar Bandon and Jusuf Galan from Spain provided military training and funding to militant Islamic groups in Malaysia. This article will also discuss Al-Qaeda's involvement in the Philippines, where they formed cells and networks with the Abu Sayyaf and other extreme Islamic groups. The results of this research show that the entry of the Al-Qaeda network in this area has caused terrorism problems and resulted in quite large losses in the form of property and lives. It is hoped that this article will provide new insights and policy recommendations to strengthen counterterrorism efforts in the future.

Abstract

The Covid-19 vaccination policy aims to eradicate the transmission of Covid-19 and reduce mortality or morbidity. However, community participation in the Covid-19 vaccination program in the Pesangan sub-district, Bireun, needs to be improved. Lack of public participation due to public perception of the vaccination program is harmful, low confidence in the quality of vaccines, anxiety and fear of side effects of the vaccine. This study aims to analyse the public perception of the Vaccine-19 Program policy in Pesangan District, Bireuen Regency. The method used in this study is a qualitative research method with a descriptive type. Primary data sources were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that public perception of vaccination risks increased, and many people refused to vaccinate. Only a few people perceive that the vaccine program is essential to ward off the Covid-19 virus so that public health can improve and the community's economy can recover.

Abstract

In Indonesia, to some extent, terrorism has achieved culmination with the explosion of the first Bali bombing by actors of Jamaah Islamiyah (JI) in 2001 that encourages and forces the state and society to move the building of effective measures, policies and systems of prevention with all the excesses and risks. In this regard, acts of terrorism by Santoso group with ISIS, a continuation of a series of terrorist by actors of Jamaah Islamiyah who carried out the Bali bombing. Santoso group along with his tissues and cells are already affiliated with ISIS, and that means terrorism in Indonesia has integrated itself with the world-class global terrorism. Therefore, after the death of Santoso and the end of his history, surveillance in the area where there are terrorists, should be tightened to restrict their movements

Abstract

The Uyghur Muslims of Xinjiang, People's Republic of China, suffered under the communist rule of Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, Zhu Rongji, and Xi Jinping for decades. Thankfully, most people don't know about this. Uyghur Muslims continue to endure allegations and stigmatization for standing up to China's lengthy history of oppression and massacre. Unfortunately, there is less international compassion for the Uyghur crisis. This paper uses a descriptive-analytical qualitative technique based on data obtained from interviews, documents, and library studies to track the upheaval among Uyghur Muslims as it progresses from terrorist activities to concerns about nationalism. As a result of their tragic situation, thousands of Uyghur Muslims have fled to neighboring countries in search of humanitarian solutions; they are currently residing in diaspora in places like Turkey, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and so on. As a result of their terrible situation in China, thousands of Uyghur Muslims have fled to diasporas in that places, in search of humanitarian answers without certainty of their future.

Abstract

This paper argues that the authoritarianism of the current Joko Widodo government can be seen in this conflict between the state and society in Rempang Island. Residents of Rempang, Batam, numbering in the thousands, have steadfastly refused to leave their homes. In order to advance the Rempang Eco City National Strategic Project (PSN), relocation to Galang Island is being considered. It was inevitable that civilians would rebel. On September 7th, 2023, tensions between police and locals erupted into violent clashes. The police opened out on the crowd with tear gas. Students were also impacted and taken to the hospital for treatment. Many groups are keeping tabs on the situation on Rempang Island, Batam. This is because locals have voiced opposition to the PSN (National Strategic Project) -designated development of the Rempang Eco City region under the administration of Joko Widodo. The nation's oligarchy and Chinese capital (PRC) are eager to grab Malay land through transactional and discriminatory policies, implementing a top-down strategy. Because of its arbitrary nature and its use of power instruments for the benefit of the oligarchy, this enterprise modelled after the VOC colonialism must be corrected, controlled by the people, and cannot be accepted.
