Abstract

Child marriage is a social phenomenon that remains quite high in Sukaresmi Village, influenced by various social and economic norms. This phenomenon occurs without official registration in accordance with the provisions of Indonesia's Marriage Law, particularly concerning the minimum age requirement of 19 years. This practice is often carried out as a community effort to address social and economic issues, especially among middle-class families and those with relatively low education levels. Economic factors serve as the primary driving force, where families with unstable and limited income choose to marry off their underage children to alleviate economic burdens and simultaneously reinforce poverty rates. On the other hand, social and cultural norms that still uphold traditional values and customary influences strengthen the perception that marriage is a matter of honor and morality in society, leading the community to accept this practice despite its legal prohibition. The existence of this unregistered marriage practice is also accompanied by a lack of legal education and literacy, as well as limited access to information and services from the government. As a result, children who marry secretly often experience school dropouts, are completely dependent on their partners, and are vulnerable to legal and social problems in the future. Therefore, strategic efforts are needed to improve legal, economic, and social norm education to reduce underage marriage practices and protect children's rights.

Abstract

Rising divorce rates have triggered custody disputes where children's fundamental rights face systematic neglect, generating psychological trauma and legal ambiguity. This research examines post-divorce child protection under Law No. 35 of 2014 on Child Protection, analyzing Decision No. 3/Pdt.G/2025/PTA.Smd as a case study. Two primary questions guide the investigation: first, how courts operationalize the child welfare principle in custody determinations within Decision No. 3/Pdt.G/2025/PTA.Smd; second, how Law No. 35 of 2014 safeguards children's rights amid post-divorce custody conflicts. Employing normative juridical methodology through statutory, conceptual, and case study approaches, the research reveals that Law No. 35 of 2014 establishes child welfare as the paramount consideration in all child-related decisions. The principle addresses physical, psychological, social, and spiritual dimensions to secure optimal development. Decision No. 3/Pdt.G/2025/PTA.Smd demonstrates practical application: the judicial panel awarded custody to the biological mother based on her superior capacity to provide appropriate care environments while preserving paternal visitation rights. The ruling simultaneously mandates financial support obligations, reinforcing continued parental accountability post-divorce. The decision effectively operationalizes child-centered legal frameworks through balanced consideration of caregiving capacity, emotional bonding, and economic responsibility.

Abstract

This study examines the economic impacts of Indonesia's 12% Value Added Tax (VAT) during January-June 2025 using a Difference-in-Differences (DiD) approach. The VAT increase from 11% to 12%, effective January 1, 2025, aims to boost state revenue and support post-pandemic economic recovery. Analysis draws on time series data from Statistics Indonesia (BPS), Bank Indonesia, and the Ministry of Finance, along with household surveys and MSME data. Results show that the 12% VAT added 0.45 percentage points to national inflation, with manufacturing bearing the largest burden at 0.18 percentage points. A striking U-shaped pattern emerged in purchasing power effects: middle-income groups (quintile 3) suffered the steepest decline of 3.4%, while low and high-income groups experienced smaller reductions. The VAT exhibits regressive characteristics, pushing the Gini coefficient from 0.381 to 0.394 and raising poverty rates from 9.54% to 9.78%—forcing approximately 640,000 people below the poverty line. While state revenue increased by 18.7%, mitigation interventions worth 0.3-0.5% of GDP became necessary. The study recommends targeted mitigation strategies: focused social compensation, revised VAT-exempt goods lists, and integrated progressive tax reforms.

Abstract

The development of digital technology has driven an increase in transactions through e-commerce platforms. However, this dynamic has also given rise to various violations of consumer rights, such as fraud, goods not as described, and misuse of personal data. This study aims to analyze the application of the doctrine of unlawful acts (PMH) in resolving disputes regarding consumer rights violations on e-commerce platforms. The method used is normative legal research with a statutory, conceptual, and case-based approach. The results show that the elements of PMH as stipulated in Article 1365 of the Civil Code can be applied to cases of consumer rights violations, whether committed by business actors or third parties. Furthermore, developments in jurisprudence have broadened the definition of PMH, allowing consumers to claim compensation not only when there is a violation of the law, but also when business actors act contrary to the principles of propriety, morality, and good faith. Thus, the PMH doctrine can be an important instrument in consumer protection in the digital era, although more stringent specific regulations regarding e-commerce are still needed.

Abstract

The informal economy accounts for a substantial share of economic activity across developing nations, where Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) serve as primary engines for job creation and income generation. Yet informality frequently confines these enterprises to persistent cycles of low productivity and economic vulnerability. Drawing on 12 studies published between 2000 and 2025, our systematic literature review examines the multifaceted barriers and pathways associated with transitioning informal SMEs into the formal economy, with particular attention to Cambodia. We synthesize theoretical frameworks on informal economy dynamics and SME development, analyze Cambodia's informal sector characteristics, identify formalization obstacles, and examine integration possibilities. Our literature search spanned multiple databases—JSTOR, Google Scholar, and repositories from the ILO, UNDP, World Bank, and ADB. We selected peer-reviewed articles and reports addressing informal economy and SME formalization in Cambodia and Southeast Asia more broadly. Our findings reveal that despite substantial barriers—financial constraints and regulatory complexities—targeted policy interventions can unlock considerable integration potential.

Abstract

Salt for the people of Aceh is a very important commodity. Salt is not only used for household consumption, it is even used by industry as an additional raw material for production so that the level of demand for salt is now increasing as a result of a deficit in supply due to a shortage of stock. This situation has forced the government to import salt to meet domestic needs. One of the factors that determine the success of salt production is the land and location that is suitable. This study aims to obtain the Salt Suitability Index (IKG) which is used as a reference for analyzing the suitability of salt production locations so that there are no wrong targets in decision making. This research was conducted with a field survey in collecting primary data with a research period from March to December 2019. The method used in this research is a descriptive method with Conformity Index analysis. The results showed that eight districts in Aceh consisted of Aceh Besar, Pidie, Pidie Jaya, Bireuen, North Aceh, East Aceh, Abdya and South Aceh districts which were used as the leading areas for salt production in accordance with the total IKG value of each location> 85% or category (S1). This study reports the first IKG analysis of salt production locations and fields in Aceh that may be of use to policy makers and further study by other researchers.
