Abstract

The birth of the Job Creation Law brings significant changes to spatial planning policies in Indonesia, with deregulation aimed at increasing investment and permitting efficiency. However, these changes also raise concerns regarding environmental sustainability and effective spatial governance. This research aims to evaluate the impact of the Job Creation Law on spatial planning policies in Indonesia and offer policy recommendations that can balance investment interests with environmental sustainability needs. This research use normative legal research employs a conceptual and statutory approach. Data were collected through literature studies that included legislation and scientific literature and then analyzed qualitatively from a legal perspective. The research results indicate that the Job Creation Law creates opportunities for increased investment but poses significant challenges in terms of oversight, coordination, and environmental preservation. Deregulation that facilitates land permits risks causing environmental degradation and conflicts of interest, especially in areas with high ecological vulnerability. The implications of this research are the importance of developing more adaptive spatial planning policies, strengthening implementation capacity at the regional level, and improving coordination between the central and regional governments. In addition, community involvement needs to be enhanced to support accountability and sustainability in spatial planning during this era of regulatory changes.

Abstract

This study examines these issues within the framework of Indonesia's criminal law development, focusing on the film Sang Penari. Through the character Srintil, the film vividly portrays how cultural practices can entrap women in cycles of exploitation that are legitimized by societal expectations. Although Indonesia has adopted various progressive legal regulations such as Law No. 21/2007 on the Eradication of Trafficking in Persons and Law No. 23/2004 on the Elimination of Domestic Violence, implementation in the field still faces significant challenges. Lack of effective law enforcement, lack of public awareness, and socio-economic factors, such as poverty, contribute to the vulnerable situation for women. Therefore, to protect women from exploitation and violence, a multidimensional approach is needed that includes aspects of law, education and economic empowerment. This research emphasizes the need for integration between law, culture and social awareness so that women like Srintil can live with dignity and be protected from violence and exploitation.

Abstract

Fraud is an act that is clearly against the law that has been regulated in the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia where fraud can cause losses to the Indonesian people. However, asking for compensation for fraud that has been committed by certain individuals is not an easy thing to do because fraud can enter the legal chamber and the civil chamber where the criminal court has the authority to impose penalties on the perpetrator in the form of fines and imprisonment, while the civil court has the authority to order the perpetrator to provide compensation to the victim. Although fraud can be addressed through civil proceedings to seek compensation, the research highlights that proving fraud is most effectively achieved in a criminal court. This underscores the necessity of obtaining an infract criminal decision one that is legally binding to establish the fraud. Such a decision serves as a prerequisite for ensuring that a civil claim for compensation is neither deemed premature nor rejected. The research recommends prioritizing criminal proceedings as a foundational step to strengthen civil compensation claims and ensure their admissibility.

Abstract

Local wisdom, reflecting the values, knowledge, and strategies of local communities, plays a crucial role in shaping Indonesia's cultural identity and societal resilience. With its vast diversity, each region of Indonesia possesses unique traditions and local wisdom, integral to the nation's heritage. However, modernization and external influences have gradually eroded these traditional practices, particularly among younger generations. This study explores the role of local wisdom in Indonesia’s customary law and its integration into civil law using normative research methods, analyzing laws, doctrines, and jurisprudence. The research aims to identify the impact of local wisdom on customary law development and examine how progressive and responsive local wisdom can be effectively applied within the civil law framework. Findings suggest that integrating local wisdom into the legal system can create a more inclusive, adaptive, and contextually relevant framework, contributing significantly to the development of civil law theory and practice in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study discusses the criminal act of assault that resulted in death, focusing on the case study of Decision Number 467/Pid.B/2022/PN Stb. The purpose of this research is to explore the importance of applying the principle of "equality before the law" in upholding justice and to assess whether the punishment imposed is appropriate given the consequences of the defendant's actions. This research uses a normative legal method with a statute-based approach, examining relevant regulations and laws related to cases of assault resulting in death. In this case, assault is defined as an act that causes pain or injury to the body, leading to the victim's death. The defendant was sentenced to 1 year and 7 months in prison under Article 351 paragraph (3) jo. Article 55 paragraph (1) point 1 of the Criminal Code. However, the analysis shows that the sentence is considered too lenient given the impact of the defendant's actions. Therefore, this study recommends that stricter law enforcement be applied to provide a deterrent effect and better justice for society.

Abstract

Borrowing and lending activities, whether conducted directly or indirectly, have become an integral part of people's lives, particularly with the rise of Financial Technology (Fintech). Fintech refers to financial services leveraging advancements in computerized technology to facilitate transactions, making it easier for individuals to conduct transactions involving products, goods, and services. Against this backdrop, this study explores key issues related to fintech-based online loan agreements: (1) What is the mechanism for canceling a fintech online loan agreement under applicable laws? (2) What forms of legal protection are available for debtors entering into fintech-based online loan agreements? (3) What are the legal consequences of canceling such agreements for both lenders and borrowers? This study employs a normative legal research method, collecting data from primary and secondary legal materials, including journals, literature, and statutory regulations. The collected materials are analyzed qualitatively and descriptively. The findings reveal that fintech-based online loan agreements may be invalidated if they fail to meet the requirements outlined in Article 1320 of the Civil Code or violate Article 47 paragraph (2) of Government Regulation Number 82 of 2012 concerning the Implementation of Electronic Systems and Transactions (PP PSTE). Furthermore, legal protection for creditors in fintech-based agreements comprises both preventive measures and repressive legal protections.

Abstract

Poverty is a major challenge to development in Indonesia, with the number of poor people reaching 28.01 million in 2016. Economic inequality between rural and urban areas worsens the situation, so that employment opportunities, including through sending Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) abroad, are one of the important solutions. PMI, the majority of whom are women, contribute significantly to the country's foreign exchange through remittances of up to hundreds of trillions of rupiah per year. However, challenges such as discrimination, exploitation, violence, and limited legal protection are still serious problems. The Indonesian government has sought better protection through Law No. 18 of 2017, bilateral cooperation, and integration of decent work principles in accordance with SDG 8, which includes pre-placement education, legal protection, and international cooperation. This study employs a normative legal approach by analyzing relevant laws and regulations to evaluate their effectiveness in protecting PMI. Interviews with stakeholders, including policymakers and migrant workers, provide practical insights to complement the legal analysis. Secondary data, including statutory regulations, court decisions, and academic literature, are examined narratively to assess existing policies and their implementation. The results show that the legal protection model for PMI has not fully guaranteed their security and welfare. Regulatory revisions are needed to address the rampant cases of violence and exploitation. Implementation of the principle of decent work requires the active involvement of the government, non-governmental organizations, and destination countries. Socialization of workers' rights must be strengthened to empower migrant workers in fighting for their rights. To enhance migrant workers' safety and welfare, regulatory reforms are urgently needed to address persistent issues of violence and exploitation. Strengthening enforcement mechanisms and cross-border cooperation is crucial to ensuring legal protection. An integrated policy approach that involves government, civil society, and international stakeholders is imperative to create a more effective protection framework and maximize PMI's contributions to national development.
