Abstract

The Chinese government opposes the planned visit of the Chair of the House of Representatives of the United States (US) Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan. Beijing said the trip would endanger the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Bamboo Curtain state. China is known to claim Taiwan as part of its territory. But Taiwan has repeatedly stated that it is an independent state under the name of the Republic of China. Taiwan has always maintained that Beijing has never ruled it and has no right to speak on its behalf. One of China's efforts to "reunify" Taiwan, as was discussed by President Xi Jinping 2021, said that reunification is a historical mandate and must be fulfilled. China has a military that is superior to Taiwan because apart from taking contingency actions against Taiwan, it is also to face the United States military in the Indo-Pacific. The United States will seek to support a politically, militarily, and economically democratic Taiwan. The US does not have a dismal relationship with Taiwan. But he supports Taipei in dealing with Chinese threats. US President Joe Biden even stated that his state was ready to deploy force if China attacked Taiwan.

Abstract

This research explores the intricate relationship between regulation and the development of Sharia-compliant financial technology (fintech) within the framework of contemporary Islamic economic law. As Sharia fintech emerges as a significant sector in the global financial landscape, the alignment of innovative financial technologies with Sharia principles becomes crucial. The paper delves into the challenges and opportunities posed by regulatory fragmentation, the impact of technological advancements, and the importance of international coordination and harmonization. Regulatory fragmentation, characterized by diverse interpretations of Sharia law and differing national regulations, complicates cross-border operations, stifles innovation, and leads to a lack of standardization in financial products. Technological advancements, such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, and digital currencies, offer immense potential for enhancing transparency, efficiency, and inclusivity in Islamic finance but also introduce complex regulatory challenges. The paper argues for a proactive and collaborative regulatory approach, emphasizing the need for international standards and greater harmonization to ensure that Sharia fintech can thrive globally. By addressing these issues, the paper highlights the critical role of regulation in shaping the future of Sharia-compliant fintech, ensuring its growth, scalability, and adherence to Islamic ethical principles.

Abstract

The ongoing conflict in Gaza has significantly exacerbated the humanitarian crisis, particularly impacting the health sector. This study examines the forced expulsion of medical personnel from hospitals by the Israeli army in Gaza on December 25, 2024, which raises serious concerns regarding violations of international humanitarian law. This article analyzes the role of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in safeguarding medical personnel and health facilities during armed conflicts, with a particular focus on the application of the Geneva Conventions. Employing a normative legal approach and case study method, this research utilizes international legal instruments, ICRC reports, and independent assessments of the Gaza conflict. The findings revealed that the expulsion of medical personnel violates fundamental principles of international humanitarian law, specifically concerning the protection of medical services in conflict zones. This study highlights the critical role of the ICRC in addressing such violations and ensuring that medical personnel can carry out their duties safely. Furthermore, it emphasizes the necessity of strengthening enforcement mechanisms and imposing sanctions against perpetrators to uphold the integrity of international humanitarian law.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) in protecting children’s rights in Palestine, particularly in Gaza, which has experienced severe violations of children’s rights due to Israeli attacks since October 2023. Israel, as a state party to the UNCRC, has been found to fail in fulfilling its obligations to protect Palestinian children. The ongoing conflict has resulted in over 17,000 child fatalities, with thousands more injured and separated from their families, while their rights to life, development, education, and protection from violence have been severely breached. Although the UNCRC aims to safeguard children’s rights globally, the violations in Gaza highlight the weaknesses in its implementation. This research employs a normative legal research methodology, analyzing international legal documents, including the UNCRC, the 1948 Genocide Convention, and related international law. The findings of this study reveal that, despite Israel’s ratification of the UNCRC, the country continues to violate Palestinian children’s rights, particularly through mass killings, the destruction of educational and healthcare infrastructure, and the blockade obstructing access to essential services. This study suggests the need for strengthening international law enforcement mechanisms, including reforms in the UNCRC’s monitoring body and greater involvement of international organizations such as UNICEF, along with the removal of veto power in the UN Security Council, to ensure Israel's accountability for the violations of children’s rights occurring in Gaza.
