Abstract

The enforcement of digital conduct provisions is currently gaining more relevance. Indonesia and Thailand, as two countries with diverse socio-cultural and religious backgrounds, continue to struggle with ensuring that online conduct was within safe boundaries. However, ongoing efforts to regulate this situation raised numerous questions regarding the balance between freedom of expression and societal sensitivities, particularly in relation to how 'harm' was defined by individuals and the legal system. A normative legal study was conducted to analyze the relevant primary law sources from both countries and examined how ‘harm’ is defined by the Indonesian and Thailand legal system. The results showed that there was a significant disconnect between Indonesia and Thailand's diverse societies and how the legal system tried to balance competing interests. Legal provisions and enforcement also showed a strong focus on socio-cultural preservation that may inadvertently limit digital discourse.

Abstract

Waste management has transcended from a mere environmental concern to a pivotal economic opportunity, particularly in urban landscapes. The Government of Lhokseumawe City has issued the Qanun Number 9 of 2015 concerning waste management, a cornerstone in this paradigm shift. This study analyzes the implementation of the Qanun for economic values in Lhokseumawe City and the obstacles faced in its execution. The research adopts a qualitative approach using data collection techniques such as observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that the full implementation of Qanun Number 9 is hindered by budget constraints at the Environmental Agency (DLH)  of Lhokseumawe City and challenging social environmental conditions, which make waste management difficult to control. Even though DLH has set appropriate waste management targets, obstacles cannot be avoided, including ineffective socialization, apathy towards cleanliness, and difficulties faced by micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in obtaining raw materials for plastic waste. Meanwhile, positive supporting factors were found, including the persistent efforts of officers in carrying out outreach activities, increased public awareness of the importance of cleanliness, and support from village officials in waste management outreach activities carried out by DLH.
