Abstract

Money laundering is a serious crime that threatens the integrity of Indonesia's legal and financial systems. In practice, notaries, as public officials authorized to draw up authentic deeds, are often in a strategic position that can potentially be exploited as a means of money laundering. Therefore, notaries are burdened with the responsibility of reporting suspected money laundering crimes as part of the regime for the prevention and eradication of money laundering crimes. This study aims to analyze the form of notary responsibility in reporting suspected money laundering crimes and their legal implications according to Indonesian law. The research method used is normative juridical with a legislative and conceptual approach. The legal materials used include primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials that are analyzed qualitatively. The results of the study show that the responsibilities of notaries in reporting suspected money laundering crimes have been regulated in various laws and regulations, but still raise normative issues, particularly regarding the limits of reporting obligations, the principle of professional secrecy, and legal certainty and protection for notaries. Therefore, regulatory clarity and synchronization of regulations are needed to ensure the effective implementation of notaries' responsibilities without neglecting the principles of prudence and legal protection.

Abstract

Criminal law enforcement against marine pollution in Indonesia serves as a crucial instrument to maintain the sustainability of marine ecosystems and safeguard the rights of coastal communities. This article analyzes national and international regulatory frameworks, law enforcement implementation, victim protection, and the effectiveness of criminal law in addressing marine pollution, including oil spills, industrial waste, and Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) fishing. The findings indicate that, despite a relatively comprehensive legal framework, enforcement effectiveness is hindered by limited law enforcement capacity, complex evidentiary procedures, vast maritime areas, and weak inter-agency coordination. Modern criminal law approaches need to be both preventive and restorative, not only imposing sanctions on offenders but also promoting ecosystem restoration and protection for affected communities. Integration of national and international instruments, regulatory harmonization, and stringent corporate accountability are key to enhancing compliance and enforcement effectiveness. The synthesis of findings underscores that criminal law enforcement against marine pollution should be viewed as a multidimensional process combining legal norms, implementation practices, victim protection, and environmental rehabilitation, thereby ensuring the sustainability of marine ecosystems and the socio-ecological well-being of coastal communities.

Abstract

Life insurance claim dispute resolution is a crucial aspect of consumer legal protection in Indonesia, particularly when claims are rejected by insurance companies. The Consumer Dispute Resolution Agency (BPSK) was established as an alternative out-of-court dispute resolution body, aiming to provide fast, simple, and low-cost resolution. However, in practice, the effectiveness of the BPSK in resolving life insurance claim disputes still faces various obstacles. This study aims to determine the procedures for resolving life insurance claim disputes through the BPSK, identify the obstacles encountered, and analyze efforts to optimize the resolution of these disputes. This study uses a normative legal research method with a statutory and conceptual approach, supported by primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. Data collection was conducted through literature review and qualitative analysis. The results indicate that life insurance claim dispute resolution through the BPSK is carried out through mediation, conciliation, and arbitration mechanisms, with final and binding decisions. However, its effectiveness still faces obstacles, including overlapping authority with the Financial Services Authority (OJK), weak enforcement powers of decisions, the technical complexity of insurance disputes, an imbalance in the bargaining position between consumers and businesses, and limited institutional capacity of the BPSK. Optimization efforts that can be implemented include strengthening regulations, harmonizing authority between institutions, increasing human resource capacity, increasing business compliance, and improving public legal and financial literacy. Therefore, strengthening the role of the BPSK is essential to realizing effective legal protection for consumers in life insurance claim disputes in Indonesia

Abstract

This study explores the construction of Moderate Islam in Indonesia and its significance for both national identity and foreign policy. As part of its strategic positioning, Indonesia actively promotes itself as a Moderate Muslim nation to counter radicalism and extremism, aligning this narrative with its commitment to tolerance and democracy. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach within a constructivist framework, this research examines policy documents, academic studies, and governmental reports to analyze the roles of state and non-state actors—including Muhammadiyah, Nahdlatul Ulama, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs—in shaping and advancing the discourse of Moderate Islam through multi-track diplomacy. The findings indicate that Moderate Islam in Indonesia is not a static or preordained identity but rather an evolving construct shaped by historical, political, and sociocultural interactions. A paradox emerges as the state’s official narratives often fail to align with social realities, particularly concerning issues of intolerance and discrimination. The instrumentalization of Moderate Islam for political purposes raises critical concerns regarding inclusivity and representation. This study contributes to constructivist international relations theory by demonstrating how religious norms influence state behavior and shape diplomatic engagement. It further argues that policy reforms are necessary to bridge the gap between diplomatic rhetoric and domestic realities, ensuring that the discourse on Moderate Islam functions not only as a strategic tool of soft power but also as an authentic reflection of societal values.

Abstract

The loss of a customer's Certificate of Ownership (SHM) while it is in the possession of a financial institution as collateral for a loan is a legal issue that has implications for the rights, obligations, and civil liability of the financial institution. This study aims to analyze the legal regulations related to the obligations of financial institutions in storing and securing SHM based on the Banking Law, the Mortgage Law, and civil law provisions governing the relationship between creditors and debtors. In addition, this study examines the legal responsibility of financial institutions if the SHM is lost due to a natural disaster that meets the criteria of force majeure based on Articles 1244 and 1245 of the Civil Code. The method used is normative legal research with a regulatory, legal concept, and doctrinal analysis approach. The results of the study show that financial institutions are required to apply the principle of prudence in the storage of collateral documents, and if the loss occurs due to a natural disaster that is proven to be force majeure, financial institutions can be exempted from liability for compensation. However, financial institutions remain obliged to carry out administrative recovery, including assisting in the process of issuing replacement certificates and ensuring that customers' legal protection remains guaranteed. This study emphasizes the need for stricter document security standards to prevent the risk of loss due to disasters in the future.

Abstract

A reform of State Attorney policy is required for personal data protection in the digital era to align legal frameworks with evolving technology, protect citizens' privacy rights, and address gaps in existing regulations like Indonesia's Personal Data Protection Law (UU PDP). This reform necessitates clear data management rules, robust enforcement through independent authorities, strengthened technological adaptability, and international cooperation to safeguard data against misuse and breaches while ensuring accountability in legal assistance—key Areas for Reform, Regulatory Frameworks, Data Management, Enforcement Mechanisms, Public Awareness, and Education. The rapid growth of digital technologies, especially in sectors like e-commerce and fintech, increases the risk of data leaks and misuse of personal information. Legal frameworks must evolve to keep pace with rapidly changing digital technologies to protect data and address new threats effectively. By addressing these areas, the sector of legal aid can adapt its policies to better protect personal data in the digital age and uphold fundamental human rights in a digital society.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the justice collaborator and crown witnesses' efficiency in uncovering criminal corruption cases. Furthermore, this article uses normative methods, library data sources, and relevant regulatory legal documents. The findings in this research are that using crown witnesses in the judicial process is common, but this condition does not mean that the public prosecutor can present crown witnesses in court. The use of crown witnesses with a mechanism (splitting) in the evidentiary process in court is contrary to the principle of non-self-discrimination, which is implicitly partially reflected in several articles, namely Article 66 of the Criminal Procedure Code, which states that there is no burden of proof for the defendant (the burden of proof is the responsibility of the public prosecutor). Crown witnesses are also an essential tool in fighting organized crime in cases of criminal acts of corruption. As an insider who is part of the environment where the information he leaked, he understands very well what and how the crime method is, which has been neatly wrapped up and kept secret from the public and law enforcement.

Abstract

The Indonesian legal system has not yet adopted the Purcell Principle, a key doctrine in U.S. election jurisprudence that serves as a judicial restraint, preventing courts from changing election rules during the election period. Its main goal is to avoid confusion and maintain the integrity of the electoral process. Applying this principle is essential to ensure legal certainty, fairness, and stability for election stakeholders, including organizers, candidates, political parties, and voters. In Indonesia, the Constitutional Court holds broad authority to review election laws. Without the Purcell Principle, this power may lead to legal uncertainty and disrupt the electoral process. This study examines the urgency of applying the Purcell Principle within the Constitutional Court's jurisdiction and proposes a conceptual framework for its integration into Indonesia’s legal system. Using a normative legal approach, the research draws on primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials through literature review and qualitative-descriptive analysis. The study concludes that the Purcell Principle is necessary to prevent judicial interference during election stages. The proposed framework includes: (1) limiting the Court's authority to review election laws, except in cases involving voting rights; (2) applying this limitation throughout the entire election process until the official announcement of results; and (3) incorporating the Purcell Principle into relevant laws such as the Election Law, the Judicial Power Law, and the Constitutional Court Law to ensure its legal force.
