Abstract

This study analyzes the obstacles in implementing chemical castration as an additional sanction for perpetrators of child sexual violence in Indonesia. Using normative legal research with a statutory and conceptual approach, this study examines the limitations of regulations and institutional barriers to the implementation of chemical castration. The research findings indicate two main obstacles in the implementation of chemical castration: the lack of adequate treatment for sexual impulse disorders experienced by convicts and the refusal of doctors to act as executors of chemical castration due to ethical considerations. To address these challenges, this study proposes a reconstruction of criminal law policy by revising the mechanism for postponing the execution of chemical castration, adjusting rehabilitation measures for perpetrators deemed unfit for chemical castration, and expanding the scope of resources for chemical castration executors through police medicine. This reconstruction aims to ensure legal certainty, improve rehabilitation for convicts, and increase the effectiveness of criminal sanctions in preventing child sexual violence.

Abstract

Corruption in Indonesia remains a pervasive and deeply entrenched issue, severely undermining public trust, hindering development, and destabilizing governance. Addressing corruption requires robust mechanisms, especially the protection of whistleblowers—particularly civil servants (Aparatur Sipil Negara, ASN)—who play a critical role in exposing corruption within public institutions. However, ASN whistleblowers face significant challenges, including retaliation, lack of legal protections, insufficient reporting channels, and limited incentives, which hinder their effectiveness and deter reporting. This study investigates the existing legal frameworks for protecting ASN whistleblowers, assessing their implementation and effectiveness, and proposing necessary reforms. Through qualitative legal research, including primary and secondary legal materials and interviews with key informants, the research identifies significant shortcomings in Indonesia's whistleblower protection laws. These gaps—such as inadequate safeguards, procedural inefficiencies, and limited institutional support—expose whistleblowers to retaliation, weakening anti-corruption efforts. The findings emphasize the urgent need for comprehensive legal reforms to enhance whistleblower protection, ensuring their safety, security, and empowerment. By filling this critical gap, the study contributes to strengthening Indonesia’s anti-corruption initiatives and highlights the essential role of whistleblowers in fostering transparency and accountability. This research calls for policymakers to prioritize whistleblower protection as a core component of the nation’s anti- corruption strategy, offering actionable recommendations to improve legal frameworks and institutional support. In doing so, it underscores the need for urgent reforms to combat corruption and promote a culture of accountability in Indonesia’s public sector.
