Abstract

Background: Judges play a crucial role in the judicial process. According to Article 1 point 8 of Law Number 8 of 1981 on Criminal Procedure (KUHAP), a judge is a state official authorized to adjudicate cases. Their duties include examining, deciding, and resolving cases. In making decisions, judges consider both aggravating and mitigating factors. Aggravating factors may include the defendant having previous convictions, while mitigating factors may include polite behavior during court proceedings. This article focuses on polite behavior as a mitigating factor. It explores how judges assess politeness in court and whether this factor remains relevant in modern criminal case decisions. Methods: To answer this problem, the author researches using the socio-legal method, where the author will examine the problem with legal norms governing polite elements as a reason for mitigation and supported by surveys to support data from existing norms and decisions related to this matter. Findings: Judges still consider the element of modesty as a reason to mitigate punishment in criminal cases. From the results of a survey of 76 judges from 64 courts, 49 respondents stated that the element of civility is still relevant to be maintained in the judicial process. Factors considered by judges as indicators of the defendant's civility in court include polite language, cooperative attitude, and non-verbal expressions that show respect for the trial process. Conclusion: This research shows that the element of modesty is still considered relevant by the majority of judges as a mitigating consideration. The defendant's demeanor in court can signal remorse and good faith which influences the judge's decision. Novelty/Originality of this article: This research combines a normative approach and socio-legal methods that are rarely used in the study of mitigating circumstances. A survey of 76 judges from different regions and ethnic backgrounds in Indonesia provides valuable insights into the actual practice of civility considerations in trials. This article confirms that the relevance of modesty is not just a formal tradition, but also reflects important social and cultural dynamics in the judicial process in Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: In the evolving digital era, consumers are increasingly vulnerable to various cyber threats such as online fraud, identity theft, and misuse of personal data. This paper discusses the concept of "Human Firewall", an approach that places individuals as the main component in the defense against digital threats through increased awareness and digital literacy. Methods: By applying a systematic literature review method to various international scientific journal sources, this study shows that low levels of digital literacy increase consumers' risk of cybercrime such as personal data theft, online fraud, and information manipulation. Findings: A good understanding of digital ethics, privacy and safe use of technology helps people make wiser decisions in the digital world and prevent digital threats. Conclusion: Efforts to improve these skills can be done through interactive training, psychology-based approaches, and the use of gamification methods to strengthen user engagement. The gap in digital access and understanding in disadvantaged areas is also a challenge that needs to be addressed through an inclusive education approach. Novelty/Originality of this article: The novelty of this research is in the integration of educational and psychological approaches to form digital resilience based on proactive individuals, not just relying on technological systems. Therefore, society must build digital awareness as protection from cyber threats.

Abstract

Background: Indonesia ranks third globally in the number of smokers, despite government efforts to reduce cigarette consumption. The continued rise in smoking is linked to the circulation of illegal cigarettes, which threaten public health, state revenue, and the national tobacco industry. This study aims to examine the distribution dynamics of illicit cigarettes and analyze stakeholder strategies to combat the issue. Methods: A qualitative approach was used, involving interviews, document analysis, and literature review. Data were analyzed thematically to explore patterns in stakeholder roles and motivations. Findings: Economic incentives drive the illegal cigarette trade, which disrupts legal markets and undermines tax revenue. Stakeholder participation varies by institutional interest and authority, influencing enforcement outcomes. Weak coordination and limited use of economic intelligence were identified as key challenges. Conclusion: Addressing illegal cigarette distribution requires stronger stakeholder collaboration and strategic use of economic intelligence. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study provides new insights into the role of economic intelligence and stakeholder dynamics in tackling illicit cigarette trade in Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: Granting remission and parole to prisoners is the authority held by the Correctional Institution, in accordance with the provisions contained in Law Number 22 of 2022 concerning Corrections. The main requirement for obtaining remission and parole is the good behavior of the prisoner, and this provision applies to all prisoners without exception, including prisoners involved in criminal acts of corruption. Methods: This study uses the Normative Juridical method with a descriptive analysis approach. The research data was obtained through two sources, namely primary data from Legislation and secondary data obtained from interviews with Class IIA Tangerang Prison Officers. Findings: The results of the study show that the revocation of the Government Regulation has eliminated strict requirements related to granting remission to prisoners involved in corruption crimes, making it easy for corrupt prisoners to obtain it, it has eliminated the deterrent effect for perpetrators and the community. In response to this situation, total reform is needed, namely legal reform, law enforcement officers, and culture. Conclusion: The study concludes that the revocation of strict regulations has made it easier for corruption convicts to obtain remission, weakening the deterrent effect. Therefore, comprehensive reforms in law, enforcement, and legal culture are urgently needed. Novelty/Originality of this article: This article offers a critical and original analysis of the impact of regulatory changes on the remission process for corruption convicts in Indonesia. By combining normative legal review with firsthand insights from correctional officers, it highlights the unintended consequences of deregulation—specifically the erosion of deterrent effects—and emphasizes the urgent need for systemic legal reform, a perspective that has been underexplored in prior studies.

Abstract

Background: This article examines Indonesia's role as a transit country in handling Rohingya refugees fleeing violence and persecution in Myanmar. On the other hand, this study also highlights ad hoc policies and humanitarian practices carried out by the central government, local governments, international organizations, and local communities in Aceh in accommodating and assisting Rohingya refugees. Methods: Using a normative legal approach and policy analysis, this study evaluates Indonesia's national legal framework which does not specifically regulate refugee status, thus creating challenges in providing long-term protection. Findings: The results of the study show that although Indonesia is not a party to the 1951 Refugee Convention, the principle of non-refoulement and the value of human solidarity have been the basis of a relatively consistent temporary policy. Conclusion: This article recommends the need to strengthen national regulations, multi-party coordination mechanisms, and increase the capacity of related institutions so that Indonesia can carry out its role as a transit country more effectively, humanely, and in line with human rights principles. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study offers a comprehensive analysis of Indonesia's role as a transit country in handling Rohingya refugees, which has previously been rarely studied in depth from a national legal and policy perspective. This study also raises the importance of integrating the principle of non-refoulement into domestic regulations as an innovation in more sustainable refugee protection policies.
