Abstract

This study analyzes the legal and operational challenges hindering Indonesia's State Intelligence Agency (BIN) from effectively coordinating national intelligence activities. Findings reveal that BIN's establishment via presidential regulation, rather than statutory law, weakens its authority over law-based agencies like TNI and Polri, causing coordination failures. The absence of constitutional recognition, a permanent coordinating body, and enforcement mechanisms further exacerbates these issues. Urgently, the research proposes: (1) elevating BIN's legal status through constitutional amendment, (2) creating a binding coordination body, and (3) implementing oversight safeguards. These reforms aim to strengthen Indonesia's intelligence system against dynamic threats while balancing centralized authority with democratic accountability. The study contributes a practical framework aligned with international best practices (Thailand and Netherlands) to address critical national security gaps.

Abstract

The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) provides a comprehensive legal framework for protecting and preserving the marine environment, including coastal areas. This study examines the application of international legal regulations regarding coastal conservation and jurisdictional management of coastal lands between Indonesia and Malaysia in the digital era. Employing a normative and qualitative approach, the research analyzes secondary data from legal materials of both countries, using a comparative method to identify similarities, differences, and points of convergence between their legal systems. In Indonesia, digital transformation by the Ministry of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning/National Land Agency has enhanced transparency and efficiency in land management; however, policy adjustments are still needed for effective coastal ecosystem protection. Meanwhile, Malaysia, with its long and erosion-prone coastline, has implemented various laws and policies, including Coastal Zone Management (CZM), to address issues such as erosion and pollution. Although both countries face similar challenges and opportunities, their approaches differ. Indonesia needs to optimize its policies to effectively protect coastal ecosystems, while Malaysia requires adjustments in implementing its existing laws and policies. Challenges such as overlapping jurisdictional authority, funding limitations, and the need for stakeholder involvement remain significant obstacles. Therefore, successful coastal land management in both countries requires better integration of legal policies, environmental conservation efforts, and digital technology to achieve sustainable outcomes.

Abstract

This research aims to compare the mobile court case settlement practices in Malaysia and Indonesia, such as legal framework and jurisdiction, operational structure, successes and challenges and implementation strategies in both countries. Research methods used in this paper is a normative juridical approach, and the collection of data is conducted through statutory law: gathering relevant statutes, regulations, and legal provisions governing the establishment and operation of mobile courts in Indonesia and Malaysia. The findings reveal a comparison of mobile court case settlement practices in Malaysia and Indonesia, where the mobile court service is advantageous because it facilitates access to the court for justice seekers. Beyond the logistical benefits, these services offer psychological comfort by allowing proceedings to occur in familiar and less intimidating environments. The difference in the implementation of mobile courts is that in Indonesia mobile courts only exist at the district level religious courts, where judges go to the field to conduct trials in rural locations, for example in the village hall, and the cases handled only involve minor cases such as isbat marriage, divorce, divorce, child custody and determination of heirs. To overcome the geographical and logistical challenges, enhancing collaboration between different government agencies is crucial. In both countries, coordination between the judiciary, local governments, and other relevant agencies, such as transportation and communication departments, can improve the effectiveness of mobile courts.

Abstract

Financial technology has experienced rapid expansion amidst the digital economic development that has made services more accessible while increasing financial inclusion. The rapid growth of financial technology creates substantial challenges for consumer protection. The primary problems arise from inadequate data protection measures and electronic payment security protocols. The lack of proper security measures and insufficient digital literacy exposes consumers to increasing risks of data theft, phishing attacks, and personal information misuse. This research evaluates the current regulatory structure that defends consumer rights and ensures secure financial operations through technological systems. The study adopts a normative legal research method through statutory analysis. The research shows that Indonesia's regulatory framework extends broad protection but requires modernization to address contemporary technological developments and emerging security risks. Fintech requires a regulatory framework that adjusts to evolving conditions while fostering partnerships to deliver adequate consumer protection.

Abstract

The use of standardized contracts today shows one side of the dominance of the modern economy by business entities or companies and even banks. Agreement is one of the main sources in civil law relationships, where the parties involved have the freedom to determine the contents and form of the agreement in accordance with Article 1338 of the Civil Code. In practice, this freedom often does not take place in a balanced manner, especially in standardized agreements. This research focuses on the principle of justice in standard agreements, where the agreement should be able to fulfill a sense of justice for the parties.    Justice is very important in standard agreements, to avoid exploitative practices and ensure equal legal protection between the parties. Based on this narrative, it is important to examine how the principle of justice is applied, protected, and enforced in standard agreements that develop in the community. The approach used in this study is normative juridical, focusing on secondary data. The results of the study show that the application of the fairness aspect of contracting in agreements or standardized contracts is still far from expectations. Agreements made in standardized forms tend to benefit one party who has a stronger bargaining position, who usually acts as the "designer" of the standardized contract.

Abstract

This research addresses the deficiencies in the scholarly exploration of constitutional law in relation to elitist populism within the legislative framework of Indonesia. The article examines the tendency of elitist populism in Indonesian legislative practice and advocates the idea of curbing it by constitutional law. Elitist populism, in the context of this article, refers to a political approach in which leaders claim to represent the common people, while simultaneously engaging in elitist practices. This study uses a normative juridical research method using statutory and conceptual approaches, and analyzes controversial cases with significant legislation impact. The research findings show that elitist populism in legislative practice is manifested in rapid legislation, and the consolidation of power that minimizes participation fails to reflect public aspirations. To limit these tendencies, constitutional law arrangements in institutional design, supervisory mechanisms, as well as spaces for public participation and awareness, need to be stronger. Therefore, it is recommended to strengthen the institutional rules of the constitutional court, revitalize the supervisory function of the house of representatives, encourage lawmaker’s consistency in the application of meaningful participation, and build public awareness.

Abstract

As trade in fish between Indonesia and the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) States intensifies under the Indonesia-EFTA Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (IE-CEPA), it becomes paramount to harmonize international trade with sustainable fisheries management. This study delves into this crucial nexus, employing descriptive and analytical legal research methodologies. It scrutinizes the sustainable development provisions embedded within the IE-CEPA, examining how these trade regulations align with and support sustainable fisheries management principles. The study further investigates the compliance of Indonesia with these rules, focusing on the protection of marine fishery resources, the suppression of Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) fishing, and the promotion of sustainable fishing practices that safeguard fish stocks and marine ecosystems. Ultimately, this research underscores the potential for a positive synergy between trade liberalization and environmental stewardship, ensuring the long-term viability of fishery resources while fostering economic growth for both Indonesia and EFTA States.

Abstract

The primary purpose of this research is to examine the potential corruption by corporations through the policy of granting mining licenses to religious community organizations (religious organizations) in Indonesia. This research contributes to analysing the potency of corruption and provides a concept for preventing corruption in the mining sector after the issuance of mining business licenses for religious organizations. The novelty of this research is to detect various potential criminal acts of corruption by corporations after the enactment of regulations that permit religious organizations to manage mines. Additionally, the concept of corporate corruption prevention provides policy input to prevent corruption in this sector. This research uses normative legal research methods with conceptual, statutory, and case approaches. A significant finding of this research is that corruption is potentially liable in mining management by religious organizations, considering that the business entities owned by religious organizations are not very credible in managing the mining sector. Furthermore, previous studies and surveys have found that many mining companies overlook or ignore their anti-corruption commitments and policies. The potency of corruption is also exacerbated by regulatory loopholes in the mining sector, which are susceptible to corruption. This research recommends a policy that regulates the standard quality of the business entity owned by a religious organization, especially human resources capacity, organizational management, and anti-corruption commitments and policies within the business entity. In addition, to avoid potential corruption in this sector, the government's commitment and the participation of society in monitoring mining governance are certainly needed.

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping the legal profession by enhancing research speed, document review, and case analysis. Yet, its integration also raises pressing concerns over accountability, data privacy, and ethical standards. This study addresses the research problem: How should Indonesia regulate AI in law to balance innovation with justice and human rights? Three guiding questions inform the analysis: (1) What is the extent of AI adoption by Indonesian legal practitioners? (2) What legal and ethical risks arise? (3) What regulatory responses are most suitable for Indonesia’s plural legal context? Adopting a socio-legal methodology, data were collected through literature review, in-depth interviews, and an online survey of 102 practitioners. Findings show that 38% of respondents currently use AI tools, mainly for legal drafting and research, but skepticism persists. Advocates in Semarang reported errors in AI-generated contracts, illustrating unresolved accountability gaps under existing laws. Judges highlighted risks of bias and opacity if AI expands into case management without safeguards. The novelty of this research lies in its empirical evidence: it is the first Indonesian study to combine practitioner perspectives with regulatory analysis, moving beyond conceptual debates. By linking adoption patterns to deficiencies in the ITE Law, PDP Law, and PERMA No. 1/2019, the study reveals concrete vulnerabilities in legal practice. The study concludes that interim sectoral measures such as PERADI guidelines and judicial ethics updates are urgently needed while developing a comprehensive AI law. Responsible governance is essential to ensure AI strengthens, rather than undermines, fairness, transparency, and the rule of law.
