Abstract

The 2024 Simultaneous Regional Elections mark a critical moment in Indonesia’s democracy, especially for first-time voters who play a key role in shaping local political dynamics. This research explores the role of first-time voters in Serang Regency, Banten, focusing on their political rights and responsibilities, and the implementation of legal norms around political participation. Employing a normative research method, the study analyzes regulations and official data to assess how well first-time voters understand and exercise their political rights. The findings indicate that their participation not only enriches local political dynamics but also provides valuable insights for developing political education strategies, particularly in schools like SMAN 1 Pabuaran. Policy implications include strengthening collaboration between local governments, election organizers, and educational institutions to enhance first-time voter participation, fostering a more inclusive and transparent democratic process.

Abstract

This community service activity aims to encourage the legalization and strengthening of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) institutions in Pabuaran District, Serang Regency. Although almost all villages have formed BUMDes, most still face administrative obstacles, especially in obtaining legal entity status and Business Identification Number (NIB). Through training and legal assistance focused on village officials, village heads, village assistants, and Village Consultative Body (BPD), this activity provides technical and normative understanding regarding the process of establishing and legalizing BUMDes based on Law Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages, Government Regulation Number 11 of 2021, and Permendesa PDTT Number 3 of 2021. The training was carried out using participatory and application methods, including simulations of filling out documents, technical consultations, and preparation of legal entity registration files. The results showed a significant increase in regulatory understanding and administrative readiness of villages in accelerating the legalization of BUMDes. As a continuation, assistance is carried out continuously by the Constitutional Law Division of the Faculty of Law, Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa University through direct consultation services on campus.

Abstract

This paper examines the urgency of codifying the Election Law and Regional Election Law into one integrated regulation in the Indonesian legal system. Currently, the implementation of the General Election and Regional Election are still regulated separately through Law No. 7 of 2017 and Law No. 10 of 2016, which has given rise to a number of problems, such as the lack of synchronization of implementation times, overlapping authority, and differences in implementation standards. This lack of integration also has the potential to hamper the efficiency and stability of the central and regional governments, especially ahead of the implementation of the national simultaneous Regional Election in 2024. Through a normative approach and analysis of the Constitutional Court's decisions, especially the Constitutional Court Decisions No. 55/PUU-XVII/2019 and Constitutional Court Decisions No. 85/PUU-XX/2022, this paper shows that the Regional Election should be considered as part of the Election regime. Codification of the two regulations is important to simplify the electoral system, ensure legal certainty, and strengthen the principle of people's sovereignty in the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The results of this study recommend that the integration of electoral regulations through codification is a strategic step in supporting effective, efficient, and inclusive democracy in Indonesia.
