Abstract

This article explores policy strategies necessary to promote a sustainable and eco-friendly nickel mining industry in Indonesia, especially as it relates to the electric vehicle (EV) sector. With Indonesia's substantial nickel reserves, demand is expected to rise sharply, driven by the global shift to EVs. However, nickel production is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, with one kilogram of nickel generating approximately 13 kilograms of CO₂. By 2035, Indonesia's demand for nickel for EV batteries alone could lead to 773 thousand tons of CO₂ emissions. This paper aims to assess green-oriented policies that could mitigate these impacts, drawing on Mariana Mazzucato’s Mission-Oriented Policies as a strategic framework. The methodology used includes literature review and case study analysis of successful policies in other countries, such as renewable energy integration in mining and efficient recycling methods. Three primary strategies are examined: improving energy efficiency, incorporating renewable energy, and sustainable recycling. Findings indicate that these policies could foster sustainable growth, reduce emissions, and align with Indonesia's green economy goals. This paper concludes that implementing a mission-oriented, environmentally sustainable approach could pave the way for a greener, more resilient nickel industry.

Abstract

This article examines the potential of Cyber Notary in facilitating international transactions and the legal challenges involved. With increasing demand for swift and secure cross-border transactions, technologies like digital signatures and blockchain offer innovative solutions for faster document validation. Successful implementations of Remote Online Notarization (RON) in the United States and the eIDAS standard in Europe highlight their effectiveness in enhancing efficiency. In Indonesia, challenges such as regulatory inconsistencies, limited public trust in digital documents, and cybersecurity issues hinder adoption. While the Electronic Information and Transactions Law provides a legal basis for electronic documents, achieving international recognition remains a significant hurdle. This research uses a normative legal methodology with a comparative approach, analyzing Cyber Notary practices in different jurisdictions to uncover opportunities and obstacles. Strengthening regulations, improving digital infrastructure, and increasing public awareness are critical steps to realize Cyber Notary’s potential. If successfully implemented, Cyber Notary can facilitate efficient, secure, and legally recognized international transactions, advancing Indonesia’s role in the global digital economy.

Abstract

Indonesia views Local Head Elections as a vital expression of people's sovereignty in its democratic system. The Constitutional Court ensures the fairness of democracy through rulings on these elections. This study examines the executory authority of the Constitutional Court's decisions regarding Local Head Elections in 2024, focusing on Decisions No. 60/PUU-XXII/2024, 70/PUU-XXII/2024, and 126/PUU-XXII/2024. Using a normative legal approach, the research analyzes laws and concepts related to these elections, with data qualitatively analyzed and presented narratively. The findings highlight that the Constitutional Court’s final and binding decisions enhance legal certainty and improve the electoral system, thereby strengthening Indonesia’s democracy. These rulings take immediate effect without requiring an executive body and must be respected by all state institutions, reflecting the principle of checks and balances in governance. Effective implementation requires cooperation among state institutions, with the legislative and executive branches expected to follow up on the rulings through lawmaking. The General Election Commission plays a critical role in organizing elections based on these laws. As a rule-of-law state, adherence to the law by all institutions is essential to achieving a just and improved democratic system.

Abstract

Children as the next generation of our nation, play a crucial role in the development and sustainability of a country. Society aspires to have children who are healthy, intelligent, cheerful, and assured of their survival and growth. However, the social reality often tells a different story, as many children must navigate the legal system for various reasons. Law Number 11 of 2012, concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System, introduces the concept of diversion. This concept aims to protect Children in Legal Conflict by shifting the resolution of their cases from the judicial process to an alternative process outside the criminal justice system. In this juvenile justice framework, Traditional Institutions also play an essential role. The involvement of community leaders in the implementation of the diversion agreement demonstrates that "traditional law" is still recognized and applicable in resolving children's cases. Based on this context, the study formulates the following questions: Why do Children in Legal conflicts have the right to protection? And how Optimizing Aceh’s Traditional Institutions can Provide Legal Protection for Children in Legal Conflict? The purpose of this study is to raise awareness and understanding of the significance of providing protection to Children in Legal Conflict while enhancing the role of Traditional Institutions in this legal protection. This research is categorized as normative legal research, utilizing secondary data obtained from legal materials. Data collection techniques include library research with qualitative data analysis. The findings reveal that children in legal conflict have the right to protection because Indonesia's ratification of the Convention on the Rights of the Child mandates it. This international commitment underscores key principles such as the best interests of the child, non-discrimination, survival and development, and respect for the child's participation, which must be prioritized in ensuring their protection. In this regard, the Aceh’s Traditional Institution plays a vital role in realizing this legal protection by resolving cases with an emphasis on deliberation. Therefore, optimizing the function of the Aceh’s Traditional Institution is necessary to achieve effective legal protection for children in conflict with the law.

Abstract

Abstract The board of commissioners acts as a supervisor and advisor to the board of  directors. Commissioners who use their position to provide advice to the board of directors so that the commissioners can take action on behalf of the company without any authority constitute an act of abuse of the commissioner's position to take ultra vires actions. As illustrated in the case of PT. Condato Grup Indonesia (PT.CGI) in Decision Number 352/Pdt.G/2021/PN Jkt.Pst, the commissioners of PT. CGI took action to transfer payments from consumers to their supplier companies and withhold PT. CGI's profits. This study uses a normative legal research method, with a statutory, case and conceptual approach, through a literature study data collection technique that collects data in the form of primary, secondary and tertiary legal materials as analyzed using a qualitative  analysis approach. Where several legal issues will be studied, namely how ultra vires actions carried out by commissioners can be categorized as abuse of  position, how the judge's considerations in deciding whether the elements of an unlawful act in Decision Number 352/Pdt.G/2021/PN Jkt.Pst are fulfilled, and how the legal analysis is of the view that the commissioners of PT. CGI have committed ultra vires actions. This study concludes that commissioners who abuse their positions to influence the board of directors are ultra vires actions, as  commissioners of PT. CGI have committed unlawful acts by abusing their authority to divert and withhold the company's profits ultra vires. In this case,  ultra vires actions are the cause of the losses incurred by PT. CGI. Therefore, the  commissioners are obliged to bear all losses, considering that the consequences of ultra vires actions are not binding on the company because they are null and void and trigger the application of the principle of piercing the corporate veil. Keywords: Position of Commissioner; Abuse; Ultra Vires.Abstrak Dewan komisaris berkedudukan sebagai pengawas dan pemberi nasihat kepada direksi. Komisaris yang menggunakan kedudukannya dalam pemberian nasihat kepada direksi agar komisaris dapat melakukan tindakan mewakili perseroan tanpa adanya kewenangan merupakan perbuatan penyalahgunaan kedudukan komisaris untuk melakukan tindakan ultra vires. Sebagaimana tergambar di permasalahan PT. Condato Grup Indonesia (PT.CGI) dalam Putusan Nomor 352/Pdt.G/2021/PN Jkt.Pst, komisaris PT. CGI melakukan tindakan pengalihan pembayaran dari konsumen ke perusahaan perusahaan supplier miliknya dan menahan keuntungan PT. CGI tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian hukum normatif, dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan, kasus dan konseptual, melalui teknik pengumpulan data studi pustaka yang mengumpulkan data berupa bahan hukum primer, sekunder dan tersier sebagaimana untuk  dianalisa secara pendekatan analisis kualitatif. Dimana akan dikajinya beberapa permasalahan hukum, yaitu bagaimana tindakan ultra vires yang dilakukan oleh komisaris dapat dikategorikan sebagai penyalahgunaan kedudukan, bagaimana pertimbangan hakim dalam memutuskan terpenuhinya unsur-unsur perbuatan melawan hukum dalam Putusan Nomor 352/Pdt.G/2021/PN Jkt.Pst, serta bagaimana analisa hukum yang berpandangan komisaris PT. CGI telah melakukan tindakan ultra vires. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa komisaris yang menyalahgunakan jabatannya untuk mempengaruhi direksi merupakan tindakan ultra vires, sebagaimana komisaris PT. CGI telah melakukan perbuatan melawan hukum dengan menyalahgunakan wewenangnya untuk mengalihkan dan menahan keuntungan perseroan secara ultra vires. Dalam kasus ini, tindakan ultra vires menjadi causa penyebab dari akibat kerugian PT. CGI timbul. Karena itu, komisaris wajib menanggung seluruh kerugian, mengingat akibat tindakan ultra  vires tidak mengikat perseroan karena batal demi hukum dan memicu penerapan prinsip piercing the corporate veil.

Abstract

Market dominance practices, particularly discriminatory conduct, are prohibited under Article 19 letter d of Law No. 5 of 1999, while the abuse of dominant position is prohibited under Article 25 of the same law. In addressing such violations, the Indonesia Competition Commission (KPPU) issued KPPU Regulation No. 2 of 2023 as a legal framework aimed at resolving business competition disputes more effectively. This study focuses on KPPU Case Decision No. 04/KPPU-I/2024, involving PT Shopee International Indonesia and PT Nusantara Ekspres Kilat, in relation to alleged discriminatory conduct through algorithmic arrangements prioritizing certain delivery service providers. The method employed in this research and writing is normative legal research with a descriptive approach. The data used comprises primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. Data collection was carried out through literature review and analyzed using qualitative normative data analysis techniques. The conclusion shows that the reported parties successfully implemented their commitments to behavioral change through a Behavioral Change Integrity Pact, in accordance with the mechanisms outlined in KPPU Regulation No. 2 of 2023. This success marks the first case to have effectively applied the mechanism under the new regulation, demonstrating its effectiveness in encouraging businesses to compete fairly and in accordance with prevailing regulations. It is recommended that KPPU take a more proactive role in disseminating information and educating the Indonesian E-Commerce Association. Furthermore, KPPU must remain consistent in monitoring the implementation of the Behavioral Change Integrity Pact, including regular oversight and evaluation of the Compliance Programs undertaken by the reported parties. These measures aim to enhance business actors understanding and compliance in resolving alleged competition law violations effectively, thereby promoting healthier competition in Indonesia’s e-commerce sector. Kegiatan penguasaan pasar khususnya praktik diskriminasi dilarang dalam Pasal 19 huruf d UU No. 5/1999 dan penyalahgunaan posisi dominan dilarang dalam Pasal 25 UU No. 5/1999. Untuk mengatasi pelanggaran tersebut, KPPU menerbitkan Peraturan KPPU No. 2 Tahun 2023 sebagai kerangka hukum untuk menyelesaikan sengketa persaingan usaha secara lebih efektif. Penelitian ini berfokus pada Penetapan Perkara KPPU No. 04/KPPU-I/2024, yang melibatkan PT Shopee International Indonesia dan PT Nusantara Ekspres Kilat terkait dugaan diskriminasi dalam pengaturan algoritma untuk memprioritaskan layanan jasa pengiriman tertentu. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian dan penulisan skripsi ini adalah metode penelitian hukum normatif, yang bersifat deskriptif. Data terdiri dari bahan hukum primer, sekunder, dan tersier. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui studi kepustakaan dan dianalisis dengan metode analisis data normatif kualitatif. Kesimpulan skripsi menunjukkan bahwa para terlapor berhasil melaksanakan komitmen perubahan perilaku melalui Pakta Integritas Perubahan Perilaku sesuai dengan mekanisme yang diatur dalam Peraturan KPPU No. 2 Tahun 2023. Keberhasilan ini menjadi kasus pertama yang berhasil menerapkan mekanisme tersebut berdasarkan peraturan terbaru, sekaligus membuktikan efektivitasnya dalam mendorong pelaku usaha untuk bersaing secara sehat dan sesuai regulasi. Disarankan agar KPPU perlu lebih aktif dalam melakukan sosialisasi dan edukasi kepada Asosiasi E-Commerce Indonesia serta harus konsisten dalam mengawasi pelaksanaan Pakta Integritas Perubahan Perilaku, termasuk memantau dan mengevaluasi Program Kepatuhan yang diikuti oleh para Terlapor secara berkala. Langkah ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman dan kepatuhan para pelaku usaha dalam menyelesaikan dugaan pelanggaran persaingan usaha secara efektif, sehingga dapat mendorong persaingan usaha yang lebih sehat di sektor e-commerce di Indonesia.

Abstract

The rapid development of technology has resulted in the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP) not being able to accommodate criminal acts related to technology. In response to these conditions, the government issued Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions which introduced electronic evidence as legal evidence. This recognition is also found in other special laws. However, scattered confessions have created uncertainty regarding the legal position of electronic evidence in the criminal justice system. As a result, the use of electronic evidence is less than optimal in the process of proving and resolving criminal cases. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the existence of electronic evidence as a valid form of evidence in Indonesia, then to identify obstacles to the use of electronic evidence in criminal justice in Indonesia and examine the urgency of regulating electronic evidence as a criminal law policy in criminal justice in Indonesia. The research method in this journal is normative legal research with a statutory regulation approach, comparative approach, case approach and historical approach.. The author uses secondary data sources consisting of primary legal materials, secondary legal materials and tertiary legal materials. Data collection techniques were carried out through literature study, then analyzed qualitatively. This research examines the position of electronic evidence in various special laws and its application in court decisions, then identifies obstacles related to procedures, understanding of law enforcement officials, and limited infrastructure, as well as explaining the urgency of ratifying the draft criminal procedure code (RKUHAP) to strengthen the legal basis for electronic evidence. The results of this research show that electronic evidence needs to be regulated in Indonesian criminal procedural law through updating the Criminal Procedure Code in order to provide legal certainty and facilitate the use of electronic evidence in Indonesian criminal procedural law.

Abstract

Akhir-akhir ini, ruang publik dipenuhi perdebatan mengenai hak cipta, terutama dipicu oleh konflik antara para pencipta lagu yang tergabung dalam AKSI dan para penyanyi dari VISI. Perselisihan ini mencuat akibat sejumlah peristiwa sebelumnya, seperti polemik antara Rieka Roslan dan The Groove, Once dan Ahmad Dhani, hingga Posan Tobing dan Kotak. Uniknya, kedua belah pihak sama-sama menggunakan Undang-Undang Nomor 28 Tahun 2014 tentang Hak Cipta sebagai dasar argumentasi, bahkan sering merujuk pada pasal yang sama dengan penafsiran berbeda. Fenomena ini menunjukkan adanya celah dalam konstruksi hukum hak cipta yang memungkinkan multitafsir. Artikel ini tidak bertujuan untuk membahas konflik personal, melainkan mengajak pembaca mengkaji akar masalahnya dan mendorong penyusunan revisi UU Hak Cipta secara komprehensif. Metode ROCCIPI (Rule, Opportunity, Capacity, Communication, Interest, Process, Ideology) ditawarkan sebagai pendekatan analitis dalam menyusun Naskah Akademik dan Rancangan Undang-Undang yang lebih inklusif dan adil. Artikel ini juga menekankan pentingnya peran akademisi hukum dalam proses legislasi, agar produk hukum tidak lagi dikendalikan oleh kepentingan sempit kelompok tertentu, tetapi benar-benar mencerminkan keadilan sosial bagi seluruh pemangku kepentingan.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the legal considerations related to copyright infringement in the case of "Urban Light," as presented in decision number 31/Pdt.Sus-Hak Cipta/2020/PN.Niaga.Jkt.Pst. This case involves a lawsuit filed by Nancy J. Rubins, the heir of the creator of the artwork "Urban Light," Chris Burden, against Defendant I, PT Pasti Makan Enak, and Defendant II, Henry Husada, who are accused of copying and modifying the artwork into the installation "Love Light" without permission.In this research, the author examines the legal framework of copyright in Indonesia, the legal considerations made by the judges in deciding the dispute, and the existing legal protection efforts. The findings indicate that Law No. 28 of 2014 provides automatic protection to creators for works that have been realized, encompassing both economic rights and moral rights. The judges considered the position of the Plaintiff as the legitimate heir, the substantial similarity between the two works, and the impact of the infringement on the creator's reputation.The court's decision to grant the Plaintiff's lawsuit emphasizes the importance of protecting copyright and the moral rights of creators, as well as providing a deterrent effect for violators. This study concludes that copyright protection in Indonesia needs to be enhanced through public education, improved law enforcement, and encouragement for the registration of creative works. Thus, it is hoped that a more conducive environment for the development of art and creativity, as well as respect for copyright, can be established in society.
