The Law no 11 of 2008 contains a penal rule against spreading hatred by the means of the internet (or digital social media). The enforcement of this penal sanction, due to its vagueness on the meaning of the term hate and spread of hate, consequently result in a public debate on how it impacts on people’s right of free expression. Apparently this vagueness opens up the possibility to limit even suppress freedom of expression. Using a juridical normative approach, this article discusses the leitmotiv of the above penal sanction. The author suggests that the express purpose of this article is to secure the unity and integrity of a pluralistic society.

State budget management is tightly related to how the existing state law regulates fiscal relationship between the central government and the regional-local governments. The authority granted to regional-local government to manage their own budgeting more or less autonomously in practice results in mismanagement, misuse of available financial resources and even corruption. Unfettered and unchecked financial leakage at the regional government level may and have resulted in failure to realize and implement projects much needed by society. In light of this situation, a justified need arise for state intervention to monitor-control planning and realization of regional-local government budget. The author proposed the expansion of the Audit Board of the Republic Indonesia’s authority. They should not passively wait for financial reports to be submitted but actively assist regional-local government in planning their own budget, monitor the spending and realization of it and lastly, provide assistance in drafting the final report.

This article discusses the problems encountered in the preliminary court proceeding of gross human right violation cases in Indonesia. Identified are two state institutions, i.e. the National Human Right Commission and the Attorney General, who possess the authority to initiate investigation and subsequent successful prosecution of gross human right violation cases. Good cooperation and relation between these two agencies is therefore a must. This article looks into the problems encountered by these two institutions in doing the preliminary process and discusses possible redistribution of these two state agency authorities. To do this a doctrinal approach will be used.

Uncertainty with regard to the proper implementation of Article 44 of the Criminal Code is to be discussed. In legal practice, the existence of mental disorder in those who are accused of murder or homicide will be made dependent on the decision of psychiatrist (authorized to conduct forensic psychology or psychiatry). In the case that such mental disorder is determined to be existing during a pre-trial hearing, the court is under no obligation to order cessation of the criminal proceeding. It is noted that in a number of cases the decision to terminate investigation or cease court proceeding falls completely under the Judge discretionary power. The author’s recommendation is that a reformulation of Art. 44 of the Criminal Code is in order.

Advancement in the information and communication technology make possible the development of e-government. The Indonesian government already grasped the opportunity to develop its own e-government system in providing public services. The obvious intent is to increase the quality of public service provision by the bureaucracy. This is hoped to be achieved by securing transparency and accountability of public officials. It is also to be expected that e-governance will be able to eradicate or at least decrease the possibility of corruptive behaviour. Unfortunately, fact speaks differently. Cases to be analysed here are: corruption committed by public officials working at the Investment and One Stop Service Office of the Bandung Municipality and those performed by public officials managing e-procurement services. In particular, this article shall discuss the issue how to develop e-government as to better at eradicating and preventing corruption by public officials.

This article discusses the utilization of the Islamic institution of wakaf (an Islamic institution) to transfer ownership or right to use of trademark. The issue at hand is that method of trademark transfer is found regulated by Law No. 20 of 2016 re. Trademark and Geographical Indication whilst procedure and conditions of wakaf is regulated by Islamic/Syariah Law (Law No. 41 of 2004). The author notes that wakaf, understood as transfer of (ownership or proprietorship) of Trademarks, is or should be motivated by religious considerations or made in the public interest. Therefore, transfer done through wakaf will always be made in perpetuity. Nonetheless, the Law no. 41 of 2004 re. wakaf make possible temporary transfer of ownership which may be performed by a license agreement, transferring only right to use the trademark but not the ownership (title) thereof. Another important note to be highlighted is that Islamic law prohibits or considers not appropriate (not halal) trademark of living being or non-kosher products (goods or services).

In this article the author traces the historic development of Islamic or sharia banking in Indonesia and this will be done by analysing the evolution of a series of successive laws promulgated over time. From these laws (Law Nos. 7/1992; 10/1998 and 21/2008) we can discern, how over the years, the Indonesian government gradually accept and recognized sharia banking principles, resulting in the establishment of Sharia Banks alongside conventional Banks. These successive laws also shows the gradual process of policy changes which involves a top-down, bottom up and again a top down approach. Through this process, Sharia Banks develops in Indonesia and has been able to meet society’s need not only for a modern banking system, but also more importantly, providing banking services in line with the sharia.

The author grapples with the issue of how Heads of Regional government respond to Ombudsman’s recommendations, suggesting correction of public service failures, and what are the legal repercussions if those regional government heads chose to disregard such recommendation. Relevant legal norms - identified from existing legal sources - shall be discussed. It is suggested that Heads of Regional Governments are under the legal obligation to heed the given recommendation and rectify the government error as proposed. In practice, recommendations can and have been on numerous times been ignored. Administrative sanctions, i.e. obligatory special re-training-education programs, in the case of failure to meet Ombudsman’s recommendation, has been dismissed with impunity by both the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Heads of Regional/Local government, by reason of political or legal considerations.
