Abstract

Abortion in Indonesia is a complex legal and ethical issue, sparking debates concerning human rights (HR) from the perspective of the fetus's right to life and women's reproductive health rights. Legally, abortion is governed by the 1945 Constitution, Pancasila, Law No. 39 of 1999 on Human Rights, Law No. 1 of 2023 on the Criminal Code, and Law No. 17 of 2023 on Health. Human rights related to abortion encompass two primary perspectives: the fetus's right to life as part of humanitarian principles and women's right to reproductive health, including access to abortion under specific conditions such as medical indications or cases of rape. While abortion is generally viewed as violating humanitarian principles, Indonesian law accommodates certain exceptions to save the mother’s life or provide justice for victims of sexual violence. This study aims to foster public awareness that abortion in Indonesia remains strictly regulated within the legal framework, balancing human rights and societal moral values.

Abstract

The regulation of cigarette advertising on television is a crucial issue in protecting public health, particularly in efforts to reduce the prevalence of smoking in Indonesia. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of the Minister of Health Regulation No. 56/2017, which mandates health warnings and health information on tobacco product packaging, in mitigating the negative impacts of cigarette advertisements especially among vulnerable groups such as children and adolescents. Employing a normative method with a legislative approach alongside descriptive analysis, the research reveals that while the regulation has successfully imposed restrictions on both the airtime and content of cigarette advertisements, its implementation is hindered by several challenges. These obstacles include insufficient oversight, the absence of stringent sanctions, and resistance from the tobacco industry. Furthermore, the study finds that despite offering initial protection, exposure to cigarette advertising on television continues to contribute to the normalization of smoking behavior within the community. Comparative analysis with regulations in other nations, notably Australia, indicates that a complete ban on cigarette advertising is more effective in lowering smoking prevalence. In light of these findings, the study recommends enhancing monitoring mechanisms, enforcing stricter sanctions, and considering a total ban on television cigarette advertisements to further reinforce public health protection.
