Abstract

Cross-border e-crimes pose significant challenges due to the borderless nature of cyberspace and the complexities of international legal cooperation. This research examines the existing international legal frameworks, such as the Budapest Convention on Cybercrime, and their effectiveness in harmonizing laws and facilitating cross-border investigations. The study applies the doctrinal research methodology to analyze the regulations on cybercrimes. It analyzes the role of international standards of due process and prosecution in upholding individual rights and ensuring fair trials in cross-border cases. The legal frameworks for collecting and sharing digital evidence across borders are fragmented, creating significant challenges for international cooperation. Emerging technologies further complicate the governance of cybercrime. Law enforcement agencies face legal and privacy issues when accessing cross-border data stored in the cloud. The execution of mutual legal assistance requests in cybercrime cases remains slow and inefficient. Gaps in international frameworks hinder lawful access to electronic evidence, while cross-border cybercrime investigations experience delays due to language barriers, incompatible laws, and limited technical expertise within national agencies. These challenges underscore the need for a unified approach to tackle cross-border e-crimes effectively.

Abstract

Cross-border cybercrime is identified as a growing concern due to the inherently borderless nature of cyberspace and the legal complexities associated with international cooperation and collaboration. Therefore, this research aims to examine the effectiveness of existing international legal frameworks, particularly the Budapest Convention on Cybercrime, in harmonising national legislation and supporting cross-border investigations. A doctrinal research methodology was adopted to review current cybercrime regulations and assess how international standards related to due process and prosecution contribute to safeguarding individual rights and ensuring fair trials in cross-border contexts. However, the current legal frameworks for collecting and sharing digital evidence across jurisdictions remain fragmented, posing substantial challenges to practical cooperation among nations. This fragmentation was further exacerbated by the rapid advancement of digital technologies, which continued to outpace legal reform. Law enforcement agencies now face growing legal and privacy-related challenges, particularly when attempting to access cross-border data stored on cloud-based platforms. Moreover, the execution of mutual legal assistance requests in cybercrime investigations continued to remain slow and inefficient, largely due to procedural bottlenecks and a lack of coordination. Significant gaps within existing international frameworks continue to hinder lawful access to electronic evidence. Additionally, investigations are frequently delayed due to language differences, conflicting legal systems, and inadequate technical capacity among national authorities. These persistent challenges underscore the urgent need for a coordinated and standardised global strategy to address cross-border cybercrime.

Abstract

The issue of "application fatigue" among government agencies has led to a reluctance among user to download or engage with existing applications. The intent behind these applications is to digitalize government functions, particularly in enhancing public services. This article explores the application of cost-benefit analysis (CBA) regarding the development of smart city policies in Indonesia. Historically, smart city initiatives have often translated into the creation of new applications by both central and regional government entities. This study employs normative legal research, utilizing both a statutory and cost-benefit analysis approach to investigate smart city implementation. The findings that the current conditions for smart city development in Indonesia are regressing, primarily due to lack of central government regulations that serve as guidelines for these initiatives. The involvement of stakeholders is examined based on their authority and interests, which significantly influence the implementation of the single smart city platform. Furthermore, the cost-benefit analysis demonstrates the importance of establishing and implementing this single smart city platform as a means to enhance decision-making efficiency within government agencies. It is hoped that this article will serve as a recommendation for policymakers to conduct through analysis prior to program development to ensure feasibility and effectiveness.

Abstract

Legislators’ qualifications play a vital role in preserving the integrity, legitimacy, and credibility of democratic governance. In Pakistan, the Constitution outlines specific requirements for candidates in Article 62, which are based on Islamic principles. However, the election laws do not provide clear procedural or definitional guidance for applying these provisions. This study examines the constitutional and Islamic foundations of legislators’ qualifications, interprets these provisions in light of Islamic teachings, and compares them with eligibility criteria in other democratic jurisdictions. The findings show that Pakistan’s electoral framework does not include explicit mechanisms to evaluate a candidate’s good character, Islamic knowledge, or moral conduct. Key terms such as good character, Islamic duties, and major sins remain undefined. This lack of clarity creates legal uncertainty, causes inconsistent enforcement, and raises concerns about fairness, transparency, and equal political rights. The absence of precise definitions also allows arbitrary or politically motivated interpretations, which weaken the rule of law. The comparison reveals that Egypt, Iran, Turkey, and Indonesia use more explicit legal or institutional mechanisms to determine candidate eligibility. The study concludes that lawmakers should clarify constitutional terms in election laws to strengthen legal certainty, ensure consistent application, and improve democratic governance.

Abstract

The Omnibus Law method represents a novel approach in the Indonesian legislative framework, initially embodied in Law Number 11 of 2020 on Job Creation. This method unify diverse sectoral regulations into a singular legal framework to enhance economic growth and streamline investment processes. However, it faces substantial criticism regarding its legitimacy, notably for inadequate public participation and potential legal ambiguities that may arise from overlapping norms. The integration of the Omnibus Law, influenced by common law traditions, presents compatibility challenges within Indonesia's civil law system, which emphasizes a hierarchical legal structure. The absence of explicit procedures for enacting Omnibus Laws in existing legislation has resulted in fears of legal uncertainty and procedural violations, particularly manifest in the rapid and non-inclusive passage of the Job Creation Law. Critics caution that this approach undermines democratic processes by lacking transparency and public input, as evidenced by widespread protests reflecting public discontent. Additionally, the consolidation of various regulations raises concerns regarding interpretative conflicts and implementation difficulties, posing risks to compliance and governance efficiency. The Constitutional Court has deemed the law "conditionally unconstitutional," underlining its procedural shortcomings. Despite these issues, the Omnibus Law holds potential for simplifying complex regulations and fostering investment, contingent upon enhanced transparency, accountability, and public engagement. Consequently, while the Omnibus Law method could significantly reform Indonesia's legislative landscape by providing adaptive solutions for contemporary challenges, its successful implementation necessitates careful formulation and a commitment to preserving justice and equity within the legal process.
