Abstract

This study examines the roles of brokers and logistics routes in Indonesia's narcotics supply chain, which has evolved into a transnational network connecting Golden Triangle production centers (particularly Myanmar's Shan State) with domestic markets through intermediate distribution nodes. The research employs a normative juridical method supported by a socio-legal approach and qualitative analysis, utilizing data from UNODC, BNN (National Narcotics Agency), Customs, and previous research reports to analyze the intersection of global economic dynamics, legal system weaknesses, and narcotics trafficking operations. Findings reveal that brokers serve three critical functions: connecting international manufacturers with domestic markets, controlling pricing mechanisms, and designing logistics routes through major ports (Tanjung Priok, Batam) and minor harbors across maritime and air channels. Indonesia's consumer market comprises approximately 3.3 million narcotics users (1.73% of the population aged 15-64 years), with high prevalence rates in North Sumatra (6.5%), South Sumatra (5%), and DKI Jakarta (3.3%). However, law enforcement remains concentrated at the downstream level, with over 70% of prosecuted cases targeting users and couriers rather than intermediate brokers. Legal system weaknesses—particularly in Money Laundering (TPPU) instruments, customs supervision, and international cooperation—enable brokers to exploit regulatory gaps and maintain network resilience despite increased arrests. From the Maqasid Syariah perspective, specifically the principle of Hifz al-'Aql (protection of reason), this study proposes non-penal policy reconstruction emphasizing preventive, educational, and rehabilitative approaches that extend beyond criminal sanctions to protect community morals, reason, and welfare through structural reforms in financial regulation, logistics supervision, and international legal diplomacy.

Abstract

This study examines the role of sharia financial products in supporting MSMEs in Medan, the challenges encountered, and potential solutions for optimization. Using a qualitative case study with 12 informants, data were gathered through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis. The findings show that MSMEs’ understanding and acceptance of sharia financial products remain limited due to low literacy and a preference for conventional finance. Key challenges include complex procedures, restricted access, weak product innovation, and insufficient regulatory support at the local level. To address these barriers, the study proposes strengthening financial literacy education, developing innovative products tailored to micro-enterprises, enhancing digital infrastructure, and encouraging collaboration among government, financial institutions, and business communities. The novelty of this research lies in its dual perspective, integrating insights from both MSME actors and Islamic financial institutions, which is rarely examined in prior studies. This dual lens provides a more holistic understanding of the interaction between demand and supply in sharia finance. The study contributes to the Islamic economics literature by presenting the unique case of Medan, while offering policy implications that emphasize localized literacy strategies, regulatory reforms, and innovation to achieve inclusive and competitive sharia finance aligned with maqasid al-shariah.

Abstract

Banking is one of the financial institutions that play an important role in the economy of a country. One of the current economic developments in Indonesia is the emergence of shariabased financial institutions, one of which is Islamic banking. Like the function of banking itself, namely as an intermediary institution between people who need capital and people who have excess capital. One of the Islamic banking facilities is financing, namely the distribution of funds from banks to customers who need working capital. The bank will provide capital to customers as business capital whose business results will be calculated for the results according to the agreement. However, in reality, in this financing, it is not uncommon for customers to experience default on installment payments. One of the causes of non-financing itself is due to business conditions that may decline. To minimize the risk of bad financing itself, banks must be able to create clear regulations. In this article, we will discuss the various strategies carried out by the Bank SUMUT Syariah Karya Medan in dealing with bad financing.
