This research aims to analyze the formulation of criminal offenses and sentencing regarding environmental and forestry protection following the enactment of the Job Creation Law, as well as to examine the criminal law aspects of such protection under the same law. A normative research method is employed, utilizing both the statute approach and the conceptual approach. The analysis of the formulation of criminal offenses and sentencing reveals the policy intent behind the drafting of the new legislation—specifically, the Job Creation Law. The criminal law aspects concerning environmental and forestry protection under the Job Creation Law encompass two areas: first, the definition of prohibited acts (criminal offenses) stipulated in the law, including the subjects liable for such acts, criminal liability, and the associated criminal sanctions or sentencing; and second, the enforcement mechanisms, or procedural criminal law.
