<![CDATA[The borders of a country are areas that are vulnerable to transnational crimes such as smuggling. This threat is vulnerable to occur in the region as the borders have certain characteristics that pose a challenge to efforts to maintain internal security. Hence, this study aims at describing the single-window law enforcement as an alternative solution for the increasing rate of smuggling nowadays. This challenge becomes even greater when a country has an area with an extraordinarily wide landscape and coastline like in Indonesia. The method that has been used in the study is the qualitative method with library study as the data gathering instrument. Indonesia is one of the countries that has handled transnational crime cases in the form of smuggling with several complex challenges. One of these challenges is the region's borders with long landscapes and coastlines, creating several security gaps. This is well illustrated in the case of smuggling in the City of Batam. Therefore, in this study, the focus of the problems raised are: (1) how to analyze the threat of transnational crime in the City of Batam; and (2) how to detect stakeholders in the field of territorial security related to the smuggling of goods in the City of Batam.]]>
