Abstract

This study examines the legal issues arising from the State Administrative Court’s overlapping jurisdiction over actions by Electricity SOE Directors that possess hybrid characteristics as both private and public entities. The core issue lies in the legal uncertainty surrounding the boundaries of the administrative court’s absolute competence in determining the business discretion of Directors in national strategic projects. Such actions are frequently drawn into the realm of administrative disputes through the expansion of the meaning of the State Administrative Decision. This study aims to analyze the legal standing of SOE Directors, dissect the dialectics between the BJR doctrine and the General Principles of Good Administration in land acquisition and permitting, and formulate norm reconstruction through internal procedural standardization. The research method employed is normative legal research, using the statute and conceptual approaches through prescriptive analysis of nine primary legal instruments and twenty-eight secondary legal materials. The results indicate that integrating BJR into the General Principles of Good Administration is imperative to protect managerial discretion from excessive judicial intervention. A crucial finding in this study emphasizes that the identification of the source of power, whether contractual or regulatory, is the key to determining the qualification of a decision as a private legal act to activate the exception in Article 2 point a of Law Number 9 of 2004. The implications of this study recommend standardizing SOE internal procedures in line with Supreme Court Circular Number 2 of 2019. This is essential to ensure that disputes arising from a breach of contract by the authority remain within the exclusive competence of the civil court. This effort is undertaken to achieve legal certainty in accelerating national energy infrastructure.

Abstract

Electricity infrastructure development is a national strategic sector directly intersecting with energy sovereignty and public interest. Therefore, construction contract disputes therein involve an intersection between private law and public law regimes. This research aims to critically analyze the basis of BANI’s legitimacy and the limitations of its authority in resolving government-construction contract disputes in the electricity sector. This is intended to guarantee the protection of energy sovereignty and the principle of legality in government administration. The research method applied is a normative juridical approach using the statute, conceptual, and case approaches, with a prescriptive, deductive syllogism analysis technique. The research results indicate that BANI’s legitimacy is derivative and limited. The arbitration institution lacks the adjudicative authority to review the validity of state administrative decisions or to set aside public electricity safety standards. These findings assert that BANI’s role must be reconstructed to remain within the corridor of purely commercial aspects without exceeding the administrative authority of public officials (ultra vires) in managing national strategic infrastructure. In conclusion, the limitation of arbitration authority is a manifestation of the limited delegation of authority doctrine, necessary to maintain state administration accountability while providing legal certainty for energy investment. This reconstruction makes a theoretical contribution by harmonizing party autonomy in civil law with legal sovereignty in the realms of Constitutional Law and State Administrative Law.

Abstract

The acceleration of digital economic transformation in the national fishery sector offers potential for allocative efficiency by shortening conventional supply chains, yet its implementation often clashes with the reality of stagnant physical infrastructure. This study aims to analyze disintermediation mechanisms arising from online market adoption, evaluate the efficiency of cold chain logistics, and formulate strengthening strategies for the integrative distribution system in Makassar City. Using a qualitative descriptive research design, data were collected via triangulation through field observations at physical distribution nodes in Paotere Fish Auction Market, transaction activity observations on marketplace platforms, and documentation studies, which were then analyzed using the interactive model by Miles et al. The results reveal a sharp logistics paradox. On the one hand, the online market successfully enabled disintermediation, increased price transparency, and severed fishermen’s dependence on traditional intermediaries. However, fundamental vulnerabilities were identified due to the absence of micro-scale cooling facilities and the use of non-standard last-mile delivery fleets. This condition results in accumulated risks of biological quality degradation and hidden operational cost inefficiencies. The study concludes that digital superstructure dominance without an adequate physical infrastructure foundation only yields pseudo-efficiency, threatening business sustainability. As a managerial implication, this study recommends implementing a hybrid logistics ecosystem through a Hub-and-Spoke model, transforming the Fish Auction Market into cold-chain-based fulfillment centers, supported by Public-Private Partnership policy synergy and the social engineering of fishermen’s logistics literacy.
