Abstract

Underage marriage remains a persistent social issue in Indonesia despite the enactment of Law Number 16 of 2019, which raised the minimum legal age of marriage for both men and women to nineteen years. Although legal reform provides stronger protection for children, its effectiveness largely depends on the active participation of educational institutions, particularly Islamic boarding schools (pesantren), in promoting awareness and preventive education. This study aims to analyze the strategies implemented by Nurul Azhar Talawe Islamic Boarding School, Sidenreng Rappang Regency, in preventing underage marriage following the legal reform of marriage age. This study employed a qualitative field research design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving boarding school leaders, teachers, students, parents, and community leaders selected purposively according to their involvement in educational and marriage-related issues. Data were analyzed using the interactive model of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while source and method triangulation were employed to ensure credibility and trustworthiness. The findings reveal that the Islamic boarding school implements an integrated prevention strategy consisting of Islamic family education (fiqh munakahat), dissemination of marriage law reform, character education, counseling services, parental engagement, and collaboration with religious and governmental institutions. The effectiveness of these programs is supported by strong institutional commitment, parental involvement, and students' increasing awareness of educational attainment before marriage. Nevertheless, economic hardship, socio-cultural traditions, and peer influence remain major barriers to prevention efforts. The study contributes to the growing literature by demonstrating that Islamic boarding schools function not only as religious educational institutions but also as strategic social agents in child protection and underage marriage prevention through value-based education and community engagement.

Abstract

A promissory note constitutes an unconditional written promise by the issuer (maker) to pay a specified sum to the holder (payee) at an agreed time. Although its use in Indonesian corporate financing and cross-border transactions has grown, its legal standing in default (wanprestasi) disputes remains governed by overlapping and partly untested provisions of the Commercial Code (KUHD) and Civil Code (KUH Perdata). This study employs normative legal research using statutory, conceptual, case-based, and comparative approaches, examining eight Supreme Court and first-instance decisions issued between 2001 and 2022 and comparing them against Article 3 of the United States Uniform Commercial Code, the United Kingdom's Bills of Exchange Act 1882, and the Geneva Convention 1930. The analysis shows that a promissory note occupies a dual legal position as a negotiable instrument under KUHD Articles 174–177 and as a contractual instrument under the KUH Perdata and identifies three recurring jurisprudential inconsistencies: inconsistent application of the abstraction principle, variable tolerance for formal defects, and unsettled criteria for what constitutes sufficient notice of default. These findings indicate that judicial guidance, rather than case-by-case adjudication alone, is needed to stabilize this area of commercial law. The study recommends that the Supreme Court issue a circular letter (SEMA) or regulation (PERMA) through its Civil Chamber plenary meeting to unify these standards, alongside legislative reform of the KUHD's negotiable-instrument provisions.

Abstract

This article examines two questions: first, what constitutional and statutory basis authorizes local governments to optimize the Rural and Urban Land and Building Tax (PBB-P2) as an instrument of Locally Generated Revenue; second, how the 2025 wave of PBB-P2 rate increases across several Indonesian regions should be evaluated through the lenses of tax justice and good governance. Using a normative legal method that combines statutory, conceptual, and case-based approaches, the study draws on fiscal decentralization theory and tax justice theory. The findings show that PBB-P2 optimization rests on a sound constitutional and statutory basis. However, the public controversies in Pati, Jombang, Semarang Regency, Bone, Parepare, and Cirebon City were driven less by an absence of legal authority than by two deficits: a tax justice deficit, in which sharp tax increases were not matched by protections for taxpayers with limited ability to pay, and a governance deficit, marked by weak transparency in property valuation and limited public participation before policy changes took effect. By contrast, DKI Jakarta shows that revenue optimization and social protection can proceed together through instruments such as the non-taxable property value threshold (NJOPTKP), a tiered assessment ratio, and an annual increase cap. The study recommends periodic and transparent property valuation updates, fuller use of the fairness instruments already available under Indonesia's Regional Tax and Levy Law (Law No. 1/2022 on Fiscal Relations between the Central and Regional Governments), mandatory public consultation before major tax policy changes, and standardized procedures for objections and refunds.
