Abstract

This study analyzes the effectiveness and challenges of the Public Prosecutor (JPU) as the sole executor in carrying out the penalty of paying substitute money (UP) in corruption cases. Replacement money, which is regulated in Article 18 of the Corruption Law, is an additional criminal sanction that is essential to recover state financial losses (asset recovery). This normative-empirical legal research identifies that normatively the prosecutor has the strong authority to confiscate and auction the assets of the convict if the UP is not paid within one month. However, in practice, the prosecutor faces significant obstacles, mainly due to: 1) The act of transferring the convict's assets triggers a lawsuit against a third party (derden verzet), which delays the execution process; and 2) Technical limitations in asset tracing to track assets disguised through money laundering schemes. It was concluded that it is necessary to strengthen synergy between institutions and the optimal use of TPPU legal instruments to ensure the success of asset recovery and achieve restorative criminal law goals.

Abstract

Employee work effectiveness is a crucial factor in determining the success of an organization, particularly in government agencies. Competence and communication are two key aspects that play a role in improving the quality of employee performance. This research was conducted at the Population Control and Family Planning Office of South Tapanuli Regency to determine the extent to which these two variables influence work effectiveness. The results are expected to contribute to human resource development and more optimal organizational governance. The objectives of this research are: To determine the partial and simultaneous influence of competence and communication on employee work effectiveness at the Population Control and Family Planning Office of South Tapanuli Regency. The problem statement is: To what extent do competence and communication partially and simultaneously influence employee work effectiveness at the Population Control and Family Planning Office of South Tapanuli Regency? The research method used a quantitative method with 33 respondents from the Population Control and Family Planning Office of South Tapanuli Regency. Data analysis was performed using SPSS Version 23. Research Results: 1). The results show that competence has a positive and significant effect on employee work effectiveness. The contribution of competence to work effectiveness is reflected in the Beta value of 0.475 or 47.5%. This finding strengthens the theory that knowledge, skills, and work attitudes are the main keys in improving organizational performance. Thus, improving employee competence is a strategic factor for achieving optimal work effectiveness. 2). In addition, the results of the study also show that communication has a positive and significant influence on employee work effectiveness. The contribution of communication to work effectiveness is reflected in the Beta value of 0.410 or 41.0%. This finding confirms the importance of communication in creating understanding, coordination, and harmonious work relationships. With open, clear, and effective communication, employees can work more focused, efficient, and productive. 3). Simultaneously, competence and communication are proven to have a significant influence on employee work effectiveness. The coefficient of determination (R Square) value of 0.782 indicates that both variables are able to explain the variation in work effectiveness by 78.2%, while the remaining 21.8% is influenced by other factors outside this study. This finding proves that the third hypothesis is acceptable. The combination of adequate competence and effective communication is the main determinant of employee success in carrying out their duties. These two variables complement each other, with competence providing capacity and work quality, while communication fosters coordination, understanding, and collaboration. Given their significant contributions, improving employee work effectiveness requires strategies to strengthen competence and improve communication systems within the organization.

Abstract

This community engagement program aimed to enhance early childhood creativity through the implementation of STEAM-based loose parts learning at TK Nurul Qur'an Stabat. The background of this initiative stems from the limited teacher understanding of STEAM pedagogy and the underutilization of loose parts as open-ended materials that can stimulate children's creativity, problem-solving, and exploration skills. The program involved several stages, including preliminary observation, workshop-based socialization, hands-on practice, and evaluation. Teachers participated in discussions, demonstrations, and collaborative activities to design STEAM-integrated learning using affordable and flexible loose parts. The results show a significant increase in teachers’ conceptual understanding and practical skills in designing creative learning experiences, as well as greater awareness of their role as facilitators rather than instructors. Teachers were able to develop STEAM-based activities that encouraged children’s imagination, experimentation, collaboration, and creativity. The program concludes that STEAM-based loose parts learning is an effective approach to improving the quality of early childhood education and can be sustainably implemented with continuous teacher support and innovation.

Abstract

Household waste pollution is an environmental issue that continues to escalate and has become a social dilemma at the community level. Based on Article 67 of Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management, “Every person is obligated to preserve the sustainability of environmental functions and control pollution and/or environmental damage.” Each individual bears responsibility for maintaining environmental sustainability and is prohibited from engaging in actions that may degrade environmental quality. However, empirical conditions show that public awareness regarding domestic waste management remains low. Liquid waste generated from washing, bathing, detergent use, and household chemicals is often discharged directly into water bodies without prior treatment, causing water quality degradation, foul odors, and ecological imbalance. This situation creates a dilemma as society perceives such practices as normal due to limited knowledge, inadequate waste treatment facilities, and weak environmental oversight. There is also a disparity between legal norms such as Article 70 of Law Number 32 of 2009, which states that “the public has equal rights and opportunities to actively participate in environmental protection and management” and social behavior, demonstrating a significant gap in environmental policy implementation. Therefore, strategic efforts are required through environmental education, the provision of household-scale waste treatment systems, strengthened community participation, and sustainable law enforcement.

Abstract

A land administration system plays a critical role in ensuring legal certainty, equitable access, and responsible land management within a society. This study examines the concept and implementation of a land administration system founded on the values of justice, emphasizing fairness, transparency, and inclusiveness in land governance. By integrating principles of distributive, procedural, and restorative justice, the system aims to address long-standing issues such as land disputes, unequal land distribution, unclear ownership rights, and limited public participation. Using a qualitative descriptive approach supported by legal and policy analysis, this research evaluates the effectiveness of justice-based land administration practices in promoting social equity and strengthening public trust. The findings indicate that incorporating justice values into land administration processes—such as registration, certification, dispute resolution, and spatial planning—enhances accountability, reduces conflicts, and supports sustainable land use. The study concludes that a justice-oriented land administration system is essential for achieving balanced development, protecting community rights, and building a more equitable and harmonious land governance framework.

Abstract

The development of the population and its supporting facilities has an impact on improving the economy of the people of a city. The Jalan Letda Sujono corridor has experienced significant development of trade and service activities with the location of the area on the border of Medan City with Deli Serdang Regency and the access to the Bandar Selamat Toll Gate. The development of trade and service activities encourages the development of other activities such as housing, public services, commerce, warehousing and industry. This has a big impact on the demands of land provision, the potential for inconsistencies in the use of space, and the disruption of traffic circulation. Inconsistent land use is expected to affect the growth and development of the city which is irregular and directed (urban sprawl). The factor of incompatibility in space utilization in spatial planning is caused by the lack of effective control of space utilization. The Jalan Letda Sujono corridor is planned by the Medan City RDTR as a Trade Sub-Zone zoning which covers 3 (three) planned blocks and there are provisions for activities (zoning regulations) for several activities that are limited by a maximum proportion of 10% of the planned block area. For this reason, it is necessary to conduct a study of the suitability of existing activities with the zoning plan that has been stipulated in the Medan City RDTR as a content of space control in order to realize safe, comfortable and sustainable spatial arrangements. In this study, a qualitative descriptive method with a spatial analysis approach is used to be able to directly compare the existing activity map with the zoning map that has been determined in the Medan City RDTR. The analysis carried out was an analysis of the interpretation of existing activities using satellite images, an analysis of the conformity of the provisions of activities with spatial ovelaping, an analysis of the suitability of activities in excess of 10% proportion, and an analysis of the suitability of activities in the Trade Sub-Zone in the Letda Sujono Street Corridor. The results of this study show that there are 45 types of existing activities consisting of 6,403 persils of activities (polygons). The suitability of activities in the research area was 102.23 Ha (60.84%) and the non-conformity of activities was 65.80 Ha (39.16%). The Plan Block that has been exceeded by activities with a proportion of 10% is Block 17-07-01 (Tembung). In the Trade Sub-Zone in the corridor of Jalan Letda Sujono, it is known that the suitability of its activities covers an area of 19.45 Ha (89.05%) and the non-conformity of its activities covers an area of 2.39 Ha (10.95%). This indicates that the spatial zoning plan has not been fully realized with the existence of Unpermitted Activities (X) in the form of Integrated Schools and the existence of Conditional Activities (B) in the form of Vehicle Pools, Workshops, and Warehouses/Warehouses. The conditional activities are no longer allowed (not allowed) in the Plan Block 17-07-01 (Tembung) because it has exceeded the proportion of activities of 10% of the plan block.
