Abstract

Indonesia's regulation of a ban on nickel exports at <1.7% (less than one point seven percent) has caused international upheaval. Reactions emerged from European Union countries that viewed Indonesia as having violated GATT 1994. In this research, the authors use the normative method with a comparative approach and literature study. The results showed that Indonesia's nickel export ban policy aligns with the government's efforts to improve the downstream industry. However, this policy has a negative impact on the environment, including increased water pollution due to nickel industry waste that exceeds the quality standards regulated in environmental regulations. This is due to the massive nickel exploitation that is not in line with the original purpose of the export ban to maintain domestic nickel stocks.

Abstract

An understanding of the importance of regulating investment treaties and implementing measures in accordance with existing rules has been generally understood by States in foreign direct investment. However, the local government where the location of foreign investment activities is carried out has not received sufficient attention. As a result, various cases of international investment disputes have arisen caused by actions taken by local governments. This study discusses how the tribunal views and interprets actions taken by local governments in relation to violations of foreign investor rights. In the span of time over the past eight years, no less than six hundred cases of foreign investment disputes have been investigated. Of these, three available and final cases became the subject of discussion in research and became examples to link them with the legal skills of local government officials in mitigating the occurrence of foreign investment case disputes. The results of this study show that in terms of understanding the rules of international investment law, the government in the country can mitigate or handle the case better with foreign investment disputes.

Abstract

Remote witness examination through teleconference media has been used for several criminal cases in Indonesia. However, it was assumed that its legal standing based on Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP) remains unclear and insufficient. Therefore, many legal scholars and practitioners look beyond the existing laws. This paper argues that the existing law can support the legal basis and implementation of witness teleconferencing in criminal cases without necessarily requiring new legislation. This normative juridical study collects and analyzes legal materials data from several laws and jurisprudences in Indonesia relating witness examination. The result shows that criminal witness examination through teleconference media is valid and enforceable under KUHAP by employing broad interpretation of Article 160 KUHAP. Nevertheless, for greater result on seeking the material truth, it is necessary to regulate the application of witness teleconferencing to ensure witness statements can be delivered smoothly and independently. This finding revitalizes the legal basis concept for remote examination in criminal proceedings. It may facilitate consideration by authorities and legislators in developing laws related to the Criminal Procedure Code.

Abstract

Vulnerable workers, often engaged in informal sectors with low and unstable incomes, face significant barriers in accessing employment-based social security programs. In the social security system, according to Law No.40/2004 and Law No.24/2011 who are social security participants are independent participants, wage recipients and contribution recipients (poor people, while informal workers are not mentioned as participants covered by the Government. This article aims to find out how social security protection is for informal workers and who is responsible for the payment of their membership contributions as social security participants. Using an empirical legal research method, the study analyzes the implementation of social security policies at the local level, particularly initiatives to include informal workers such as fishermen, religious educators, and ride-hailing drivers. Data were collected through field observation, interviews with relevant stakeholders, and review of secondary legal documents. The study reveals that local government initiatives play a critical role in expanding enrollment, particularly through targeted identification of eligible workers and the allocation of public budget to subsidize premiums. The novelty of this research lies in its focus on subnational policy implementation and the mechanisms through which local governments operationalize inclusive social protection. The findings highlight how coordination between central and local authorities contributes to expanding access to social security and reducing socioeconomic vulnerability among informal labor groups. This study offers practical insights for policymakers seeking to close protection gaps and achieve broader coverage in employment-based social security systems.

Abstract

The development of the promotion and protection of human rights, in general, has been gladdening. However, in instances where human rights are affected by business activity, efforts to uphold them meet certain obstacles. This is exacerbated when the business activity involves a complex and international dimension in it"”i.e., in the case of multinational enterprises. This paper provides three arguments to support the establishment of international binding treaty on business and human rights. It examines the current Corporate Social Responsibility platform, state responsibility to protect human rights, and also the importance and benefits of legally binding treaty. This research found that the implementation of the current CSR platform fails to prevent business harm to human rights. Therefore, state responsibility is fundamental in this matter and should be enhanced by the duty to establish an international treaty. A legally binding treaty is important to protect human rights from irresponsible business activity and can be beneficial and relevant to the interest of parties involved in business and human rights.
