Abstract

Global City project in the Special Region of Jakarta aims to position Jakarta as a central hub of global economic governance and connectivity, particularly through the service, technology, and innovation sectors. Jakarta is increasingly demonstrating its potential as a global city in Southeast Asia due to its strong economy, rapid infrastructure development, and implementation of the smart city concept. However, major challenges arise during leadership transitions. Many innovative projects are halted or redirected due to the absence of legal provisions requiring subsequent regional heads to continue previously initiated programs. This reflects a legal vacuum, especially due to the lack of long-term policy transition norms at the regional level. As a result, global city development policies are overly dependent on the political vision and mission of incumbent leaders. This research employs a normative and empirical juridical approach by analyzing relevant laws and regulations. The findings show that several major projects—such as Jakarta Smart City, Transit-Oriented Development (TOD), and urban village revitalization—have been delayed or altered due to the absence of binding rules ensuring continuity after a change in leadership. To address this issue, a repositioning of the government’s role is necessary. The central government must act as a guarantor of project continuity through national policies and strong legal frameworks. At the regional level, local regulations (Perda) must include clauses mandating policy continuity, cross-term reporting obligations, and stronger regulations concerning legacy projects within the framework of the Regional Government Law. These measures are essential to ensure the sustainable implementation of Jakarta’s global city vision, undisturbed by the five-year political cycle.

Abstract

Sanctions for police officers who violate the KEPP were previously regulated in Regulation of the Chief of the Indonesian National Police Number 14 of 2011 concerning the Code of Ethics for the Indonesian National Police. However, this regulation has been revoked and replaced with Perpol Number 7 of 2022. Based on the considerations in letter c of Perpol No. 7 of 2022, the reason for revoking and replacing the previous provisions was that they were no longer in line with developments in ethical values, culture, and behavior in society that influence the behavior of Indonesian National Police officials. The data analysis used is normative juridical. The research approach used by the author is the legal approach. Changes in the police code of ethics sanctions after the issuance of Perpol No. 7 of 2022 include a clearer and more detailed separation between ethical sanctions and administrative sanctions, changes in nomenclature, the categorization of sanctions, and an increase in the number of sanctions. Analysis of changes in the police code of ethics sanctions after the issuance of Perpol No. 7 of 2022. The separation between ethical sanctions and administrative sanctions, coupled with changes in nomenclature that are easy to understand, clear, and even accessible to all citizens, is in line with legal certainty, which contains values that are very important in the context of law and justice. The principle of proportionality prevents penalties that are too severe or too lenient, which are not in line with the characteristics of police officers who violate the KEPP. The current sanctions are in line with the principle of balance, which, in theory, emphasizes the possibility of self-improvement.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the legal considerations of the Panel of Judges in acquitting the defendant, Ardian Hendri Prasetyo, in a corruption case involving bank credit distribution at Bank Rakyat Indonesia (BRI) Pangkalpinang Branch. It also examines the consistency of the verdict with the principles of criminal law and the anti-corruption legal framework in Indonesia. This study uses a normative juridical method with a case study approach and court decision analysis. The data were obtained through literature review and official court documents. The findings indicate that the Panel of Judges found the elements of corruption, particularly abuse of authority and state financial loss, not legally and convincingly proven. The acquittal also reflects the application of the in dubio pro reo principle and procedural criminal law. This study contributes to a better understanding of evidentiary law in banking corruption cases and highlights the importance of accurate legal interpretation of criminal elements.

Abstract

Article 28H(1) of the 1945 Constitution affirms the right of every person to a good and healthy environment and, in doing so, places a binding constitutional duty on the State to ensure environmental protection through all instruments of public governance, including spatial planning. This research explores the enduring disconnect between the normative structure of Indonesia’s spatial planning regime and its practical application in coastal setback areas, with particular emphasis on the functions and responsibilities of local governments within the decentralization framework. Adopting a non-doctrinal socio-legal approach and employing a case study of South Bali, the study combines constitutional interpretation with empirical observations to evaluate how spatial governance practices shape the realization of environmental rights. The analysis demonstrates that spatial planning in coastal zones has not operated as an effective preventive mechanism, as development-led policies most notably those driven by tourism investment have consistently taken precedence over ecological protection, disaster risk reduction, and the preservation of public coastal access. In addition, governance changes following the enactment of the Job Creation Law reveal a growing tendency toward recentralization, which constrains the substantive decision-making capacity of local governments while simultaneously maintaining their formal accountability for environmental outcomes. This structural inconsistency gives rise to a form of constitutional failure by omission. Accordingly, the study argues for a fundamental reorientation of local government functions, repositioning spatial planning as a rights-based, precautionary, and participatory governance instrument grounded in ecological justice, constitutional accountability, and the integration of local wisdom, in order to restore its effectiveness in fulfilling constitutional environmental rights.

Abstract

Self-development is a transformative process for developing potential, talents, and personality to achieve self-actualization. In the context of national life, optimal self-development must include internalizing legal awareness so that individuals can contribute ethically and professionally. This article aims to analyze how self-development motivation plays a role in increasing legal compliance and how this impacts the realization of resilient and just institutions in Indonesia, in line with point 16 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The method used in this paper is qualitative with a library research approach. Data were collected through a review of various scientific literature, journals, and books related to the psychology of self-development, the sociology of law, and institutional governance. The results of the discussion indicate that self-development integrated with legal awareness not only increases personal productivity but also creates individuals with the integrity to step out of their comfort zones to uphold justice. The role of guidance and counseling is crucial as a catalyst in instilling legally conscious character values. A strong correlation was found between the quality of human resources motivated to develop and the creation of social peace and the strengthening of the effectiveness of public institutions in Indonesia.

Abstract

The development of healthcare services necessitates enhanced professionalism and legal accountability among health professionals, including Medical Laboratory Technologists (MLTs), who play a strategic role in supporting diagnostic accuracy and ensuring patient safety. Violations of the professional code of ethics by MLTs may give rise to legal consequences that affect patients, healthcare institutions, and public trust. This study aims to analyze the legal framework governing the responsibilities of Medical Laboratory Technologists, the forms and mechanisms of legal accountability arising from violations of the professional code of ethics, and the mechanisms for resolving such violations in order to achieve legal certainty. This research employs a normative legal research method with statutory and case-based approaches. The data were obtained through a literature review of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials, which were analyzed qualitatively using deductive reasoning. The findings indicate that the responsibilities of Medical Laboratory Technologists have been comprehensively regulated under statutory provisions and professional codes of ethics, emphasizing compliance with professional standards, standard operating procedures, and patient safety principles. The legal accountability of MLTs is multidimensional, encompassing administrative, civil, and criminal aspects, applied proportionally based on the nature of the violation and its resulting consequences. The mechanism for resolving violations of the professional code of ethics is conducted in a tiered manner through professional organizations and disciplinary boards, as well as through litigation and non-litigation processes, thereby ensuring legal certainty and balanced protection for both patients and healthcare professionals.

Abstract

Public information disclosure is a fundamental element in democratic governance based on the principles of good governance. Law Number 14 of 2008 concerning Public Information Disclosure was formed to shift the government's political culture from a pattern of secrecy to openness. However, in its implementation, this law still faces challenges related to the political configuration of the law and bureaucratic resistance. This study examines the politics of law in the implementation of the Public Information Disclosure Law and assesses its effectiveness in encouraging a culture of openness. This research uses a normative juridical method with a legislative, conceptual, and case approach through a literature study of laws and regulations, information dispute decisions, and relevant scientific literature. The results of the study show that the legal politics of public information disclosure are ambivalent. On the one hand, the laws and decisions of the Information Commission have expanded public access to information, but on the other hand, implementing regulations and internal bureaucratic policies are still often used to maintain a culture of secrecy. This study concludes that the effectiveness of the law in encouraging openness is still limited and is greatly influenced by the power relations between the state, the bureaucracy, and society.

Abstract

Suspension of Debt Payment Obligations (PKPU) under Law Number 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and PKPU is designed as a legal mechanism to facilitate fair and efficient debt restructuring while preventing business collapse. PKPU grants a temporary moratorium of up to 270 days for debtors to propose a composition plan to creditors. However, a normative conflict arises between the rights of secured creditors under Law Number 4 of 1996 concerning Mortgage Rights and the provisions of the Bankruptcy/PKPU Law. Article 6 of the Mortgage Law authorizes first-ranking mortgage holders to execute collateral through auction upon debtor default, whereas Article 245 of the Bankruptcy/PKPU Law restricts debt payments, including proceeds from collateral execution, prior to the approval of a composition plan (homologation) or a declaration of bankruptcy, except on a proportional basis to all creditors. This study employs normative juridical research using statutory, conceptual, and case approaches to analyze the disharmony between these regulations and its implications for legal certainty. The findings indicate that the suspension of execution rights during PKPU creates uncertainty and weakens the position of secured creditors, potentially conflicting with the principle of material security rights. Therefore, regulatory harmonization is necessary to balance the protection of secured creditors’ rights with the restructuring objectives of PKPU, thereby ensuring legal certainty and fairness within Indonesia’s insolvency framework.

Abstract

This study aims to determine and analyze the legal protection for good faith land buyers who enter into lease agreements with foreign nationals. The theoretical framework of this research uses the theory of legal protection, the theory of good faith purchaser, and the theory of agreement. The research methodology used is normative juridical legal research, focusing on library materials consisting of primary and secondary sources such as legal regulations, books, theses, and journals related to this research. The legal protection of foreign nationals who conduct land leasing transactions in Indonesia is basically regulated in the Basic Agrarian Law (UUPA) Number 5 of 1960 and other related regulations. According to the UUPA, foreign nationals are not allowed to own land in Indonesia they may have the right of use or the right of lease. This research highlights the importance of legal protection for good faith buyers in such transactions, to ensure their protection under the law. The practical and theoretical implications of this research provide insight into how the results of this study may be applied or influence practice in the field of property law, particularly in international land lease agreements. These implications may affect legal practitioners, policy makers, and foreign investors involved in the Indonesian real estate sector. This research contributes to the literature by exploring the legal complexities surrounding land transactions involving foreign nationals and good faith buyers. The originality of this research lies in the in-depth analysis of the interplay between national land laws and international lease agreements of both legal practitioners and buyers regarding the legal protections available in such transactions.

Abstract

This study aims to examine (1) the Position of Domain Names as Intangible Objects in Indonesian National Law; (2) Legal Protection for Domain Name Owners according to Indonesian Laws and Regulations. This study employs normative legal research using a statutory approach. The legal sources used in this study include primary legal materials and secondary legal materials using the technique of collecting legal materials through document studies and analyzed using deductive method. The results of this study show that (1) Domain names in the development of Indonesian civil law can be understood as objects of modern law, but they do not meet the elements of objects that can be controlled by property rights because their power still depends on the registration period. (2) Legal protection for domain names is provided preventively through regulatory registration mechanisms, the application of the principles of first come, first served, and the obligation to use in good faith, as well as repressively through civil lawsuits and dispute resolution managed by PANDI through PPND (Domain Name Dispute Resolution). However, such protection is still limited because the rights to domain names born from registration are administrative and contractual.
