second, how does the community engage in the document of environmental impact assesment eia pt.mmc implementation. the results of this study indicate that the eia position in the environmental permit is an absolute obligation and prerequisite if a company violates the environmental permit, the business license or activity may be canceled. and the pt.mmc eia issuance procedure has been in accordance with the legislation but in its implementation is not in accordance with the planning. keywords: environmental impact assesment eia of pt.mmc; environmental permit; licensing law; amdal introduction eia is a very important part of a plan for environmental or natural resource exploration activities. the legal basis of eia is contained in law number 23 year 1997 regarding environmental management, as it has been amended through law number 32 year 2009 on environmental protection and management hereinafter its implementation rule through government regulation no. 27/1999 on environmental impact analysis life and regulation of the state minister of environment no.11 of 2006 on the type of business plan and or activity that must be completed eia. thus eia is a technical means used to estimate the negative and positive impacts that will be generated by a planned activity on the environment, considering that in the preparation of eia documents it is necessary to https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ mailto:rahmatlawyers@gmail.com volume 1, issue 2, july 2018 : 95 102 | 96 community involvement in preparation of eia documents as implementation of participatory principles in law no.32 year… involve the public widely and openly,1 as it is the principle of participative in law number 32 of 2009 on the protection and management of the environment. with the implementation of a participatory eia, then decision-making on the plan of an activity has been based on consideration of ecological aspects. from the above description, then the problem we face is how malaksanakan development that does not damage the environment and natural resources, so that development can improve the environmental capability in supporting the continuation of development as a whole. with the support of environmental capabilities that are maintained and built in harmony and balance, the implementation of development, and the results of development can be implemented and enjoyed on an ongoing basis from generation to generation. the mining business is one of human effort to improve the quality of its economy, because the mining industry promises prosperity and prosperity of the people. but behind it there is also a big threat to the environment if the mining business management is done irresponsibly. mamuju district, west sulawesi province is an area rich in natural resources potential in the form of gold, oil, natural gas, coal and manganese materials. one of the areas with potential coal and manganese mines, is bonehau village, bonehau district, mamuju district with an area of 96,176 km2, which can even be assumed that it could damage the tourism potential in other regions due to the lack of attention to environmental sustainability that may affect the visit or the decision of the tourists who participate in providing foreign exchange for regional development.2 among the companies that have a mining business license are pt. mandiri mining corporindo (mmc) with exploration license no. 418/2009 and production operation license no. 333 of 2010, which is engaged in mining of manganese, where the production process has started since october 2010. the area of mining business license owned by pt.mmc is 178 ha covering a production forest area of 125 ha and community plantation of 53 ha. but the newly managed area is about 30 percent. since the beginning of the opening of mining companies in the village of bonehau has caused pros and cons in the community, where some people judge if the socialization is not done by the company or local government, so it is feared the opening of manganese mining company will cause the impact of environmental damage in various sectors, directly adjacent to the plantations and rice fields of local communities, as hasmin, a local youth figure (author interview on 19 march 2012). it is, therefore, necessary to have a comprehensive assessment of the environmental law instruments, existing licensing laws and their impact on the communities affected by the development of manganese mining 1 baharuddin, h. 2008. hak gugat lembaga swadaya masyarakat (lsm) dalam rangka kontrol terhadap pelayanan publik, pt. umitoha ukhuwah grafika: makassar. 2 bahari, a. f., & ashoer, m.

bonehau village, mamuju district, west sulawesi province. for that matter, this study formulates the following issues: how is the implementation of pt. mmc preparation eia? and how is community involvement in the eia document team of pt. mmc ? method this article uses legal research with an empirical approach and forms the formulation of the problem set out to review and provide an analysis of the implementation of eia pertamabangan business (study at pt. mandiri mining corporindo in mamuju district, west sulawesi province). analysis and discussion implementation of pt.mmc eia preparation against the implementation of eia pt.mmc, a survey of thirty respondents comprising communities around the pt.mmc mining site, measured by participation and community involvement in the implementation of the eia. the results of the interviews and questionnaires to measure community knowledge on eia are arranged in the form of tables as follows: table.1 public knowledge of eia no

found the following things, as much as 10 percent of respondents answered that community involvement only in the early stages of socialization and discussion eia course, the remaining 90 percent said no even not know about the existence socialization eia pt.mmc, more fully illustrated in the following table. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ volume 1, issue 2, july 2018 : 95 102 | 98

presented above, it is clear that in the implementation of the preparation of eia pt.mmc has not maximally involved the community so that the participative principles explicitly stipulated in article 26 paragraph (1) to paragraph (3) of law no.32 of 2009, protection and management of the environment, in the article it is explained that the eia document is prepared with the involvement of the community in a transparent manner, especially the people who will be affected by a business activity. the question that arises then is whether or not the public involvement in the preparation of the eia document, the pt.mmc mining business license can be reviewed ?. administrative law enforcement instruments are part of the rule of law (besturen), then the enforcement of state administration law is subject to general principles (government law), namely the principle of validity (rechtmatigheid van bestuur), the principle of efficiency and effectiveness (doelmatigheid an doeltreffendheid), the principle of openness openbaarheid van bestuur) and the principle of planmatigheid (planmatigheid).3 mas achmad santosa stated that the administrative law enforcement devices in a legal system and the government should at least include five devices which are prerequisites for the effectiveness of administrative law enforcement in the environmental field4. the five devices are : 1. permission, which is utilized as a control and control device 2. conditions of consent with reference to eia, environmental quality standards, legislation 3. structuring control mechanism; 4. the presence of adequate supervisory officials in both quantity and quality 5. adminisrative sanctions 3 aditia syaprillah, 2016, penegakan hukum administrasi lingkungan melalui instrumen pengawasan, jurnal bina hukum

documents as implementation of participatory principles in law no.32 year… there is a model of law enforcement of the administrative environment with some kind of administrative sanctions that are usually applied to violations committed by the perpetrators of activities are: 1. bestuursdwang (government coercion). 2. withdrawal of favorable decisions (permits, subsidies, payments, and so on) 3. the imposition of forced money by the government (dwangsom). 4. imposition of administrative fine (administrative boete).5 this view is a form of administrative law enforcement developed in the netherlands, which is expected to be a comparator in the formation and practice of administrative law in indonesia. a pyramid form in enacting sanctions in the enforcement of environmental law is the imposition of administrative sanctions as mentioned above applied systematically and gradually (ranging from mild, medium to heavy), uuplh set the implementation of three types of administrative sanctions namely: 1. coercion of government article 25 paragraph (1) 2. payment of a certain total of money article 25 paragraph (5) 3. revocation of business license article 27 paragraph (1)6 that enforcement of environmental law in the environmental field has several strategic benefits compared to other law enforcement devices (civil and criminal) such benefits are as follows: 1. enforcement of environmental administration law can be optimized as a preventive tool 2. enforcement of administrative law (which is prevention) can be more efficient in terms of financing than criminal and civil law enforcement. financing for administrative law enforcement includes routine field inspection costs and cheaper laboratory testing compared to evidence collection efforts, field investigations, hiring expert witnesses to prove causality (causality) in criminal and civil cases. 3. the enforcement of the administrative law has more ability to invite community participation.7 administrative law enforcement devices in a legal and administrative system should at least include permits, permit requirements with reference to eia, environmental 5 rahmat, 2015, hukum perlindungan dan pengelolaan

requirements of the effectiveness of environmental administration enforcement. officials authorized to impose administrative sanctions of governmental coercion and payment of a certain total of money are the governor. the governor may transfer the authority to the regent / mayor. for the application of administrative sanction in the form of revocation of business license, the authorized person is the officer issuing the business license concerned. the governor is only authorized to propose the revocation of a business license to the authorized official issuing the permit. therefore, based on the above studies, the mamuju district government of west sulawesi province can perform administrative actions in the form of a recommendation to improve the eia document of pt. mandiri mining corporindo (mmc). community involvement in assessment team of pt.mmc eia document the eia document assessment shall be undertaken by the eia appraisal commission to assess the eia documents of strategic business and/or activities, located over one province, located in the disputed territory, in the ocean spaces, and/or their location across the borders of the republic of indonesia with other countries. in the implementation of regional autonomy, for the provincial level, the eia document assessment is undertaken by provincial development planning agency at sub-national level (bappeda), which is to assess businesses and/or activities that are located in excess of one district. for regency/municipality level is also available the assessment team is the officials who have received the certificate of appraiser (eia). the eia document assessment is undertaken for several documents and includes assessments of administrative completeness and document contents. as for the documents assessed, include : 1. assessment of the terms of reference document. 2. assessment of environmental impact analysis documents. 3. assessment of environmental management plan. 4. assessment of environmental monitoring plan. the based on the results of research related to the implementation of pt. mmc amdal/eia issuance as the holder of a business license for manganese mine management in bonehau village, bonehau subdistrict, mamuju district, west sulawesi province. based on the author's interview with the head of bappedalda of mamuju district as the institution issuing the environmental permit, according to him pt.mmc has fulfilled 8 gatra, dwi, et al.

regions to manage and utilize regional resources optimally, of course, the granting of such authority must be balanced with the establishment of adequate regulations. however, there are still many problems related to the formulation of regulations, especially the village regulations. as long as government-cooled development starts from the lowest levels of government, the village has not proceeded as desired. the purpose of this study to determine the status of village rules in autonomy village governance system. the research method used in the preparation of this research is the normative juridical method that is in answering the problem used the legal point of view based on the applicable law regulation, to then be connected with the reality in the field related to the issues to be discussed. village regulations serve as indicators in the successful implementation of village autonomy. in law number 6 year 2014 article 115 letter b and e jo article 112 paragraph 1 stipulates the provision that the regency / municipal government shall supervise and administer the village government which in the case of village regulation in the form of guiding the formulation of

this republic, the arrangement of the village has undergone several changes since the colonial age, regeeringsreglement, which was the beginning of the village administration. at least there are some rules of legislation that emerged since 1945, among others, law no. 1 of 1945 on the status of the village and the power of the national committee of the region, the decree of the mprs no. iii / mprs / 1960 on the outline of the planet development pattern of first stage 1961-1969, law no. 5 the year 1979 on village government, pp. 76 of 2001 on general guidelines on village regulation, pp. 72/2005 on villages, government regulation no. 47 of 2015, law no. 6 of 2014 on villages, hereinafter referred to as the village law. refer a statement about village autonomy that:4 the village is a unitary legal community that has its original structure based on special privileges of origin. the basic concept of thinking about village governance is diversity, participation, indigenous autonomy, democratization and community empowerment. observing village geography is a result of geographical, social, political, and cultural manifestations in one region and having a reciprocal relationship with other regions,5 the definition is, in fact, the village is an important part for the existence of the indonesian nation because the village is the smallest unit of this nation that shows the diversity of indonesia. as long as it is proved that diversity has become a support force for the existence of a nation. thus the strengthening of the village becomes a thing that cannot be negotiable and can not be separated from the development of this nation as a whole. thus, the existence of the village needs to be empowered and protected, especially in the exercise of its authority. historically, the village was the forerunner to the formation of political and governmental society in indonesia long before the nation was formed. the social structures that exist in similar areas of villages, indigenous peoples, and others have become social institutions that have a very important position. the village is an autonomous institution with its own traditions, customs, and laws and has an independent tendency. this is demonstrated, among other things, by the high level of diversity that the village may be the most concrete form of the nation. however, in law number 23 the year 2014, it is mentioned that villages in districts/municipalities can gradually be changed or adjusted their status to urban village according to the proposals and initiatives of the village government

establishment of laws and regulations, village regulations are not explicitly regulated. previously in law no. 10 of 2004 and the minister of home affairs regulation no. 17 of 2006 on the gazette and regional news stipulates that village regulation is enacted in the regional news. although law number 12 the year 2011 does not stipulate explicitly about village regulations, it does not mean that law number 12 the year 2011 does not recognize village regulations as legislation. village regulations are still recognized as legislation under the provisions of article 8 of law number 12 the year 2011 which reads:7 1. types of legislation regulations other than those referred to in article 7 paragraph (1) include the rules established by the people's consultative assembly, the people's legislative assembly, the regional representative council, the supreme court, the constitutional court, the supreme audit board, the judicial commission, bank indonesia, a minister, a body, body or

authority) also has the authority and power as a gradual delegation from the government above it. the village government is organized under the leadership of a village head and his or her assistant village head in organizing or running village governance.10 if we trace the history of village setting we can start in 1854, the dutch colonial government issued regeeringsreglement which was the forerunner of the arrangement of the region and the village. in article 71 or article 128.i.s. affirming the status of the village, firstly that the village which is the regulation is called inlandsche gemeenten for the approval of the regional head is entitled to elect his own village leader and government. secondly, that the village head was given the right to organize and manage his own household by taking into account the regulations issued by the governor-general or from the regional head (resident), the governor-general shall safeguard that right against all violations.11 the regulation has also succeeded in promoting the advancement of village legal status as the owner of its natural resources, in terms of legal history studies, it can also be observed that the regulation of the village as mentioned above has the potential to generate debate among academics as well as internal colonial government. according to van deventer, with the passage of village rules, the right of villages to obtain and control their own property has been given a legal basis. based on the right, the village will be able to arrange their own village income. this is important in relation to the establishment of village schools and village barns at that time.12 the existence of village rules as one form of legislation since the enactment of law number 22 the year 1999 on regional government, and from the moment stated as applicable then as one of the tasks of the village representative body is a body formed as the realization of democracy at the village level. the enactment of law number 32 the year 2004 regarding regional government, still recognizes and reinforces village regulation although it still has not provided a definition or definition of what is meant by village regulation. the definition of the village rule is mentioned in article 1 of law number 10 the year 2004 on the establishment of legislation, namely the legislation regulation made by the village representative body or other names together with the village head or other names. this definition is also used by government regulation no. 72 of 2005 which is a further regulation of the village. further things about the village regulations themselves have not been regulated in law number 32 the year 2004 or government regulation 10 dody eko wijayanto, kepala desa dengan badan permusyawaratan

however, both regulations have mandated that further matters concerning village rules are regulated in each region by referring to the minister of home affairs regulation no. 29 of 2006 challenging guidelines for establishment and mechanism of village rule preparation.13 the recognition of the existence of village rules and having binding legal force as long as ordered by a higher regulation or established under the authority (formal), reinforced in article 8 paragraph (2) of law number 12 the year 2011. based on article 101 of law number 12 in year 2011, all laws and regulations that are the implementing regulations of law number 10 the year 2004 are declared valid as long as they are not contradictory to the provisions of law number 12 the year 2011. thus, although law number 10 the year 2004 has been revoked the government regulation is still in effect, also the government regulation of law number 32 the year 2004 which as the implementer of the article on the village in the act, namely government unity number 72 the year 2005 regarding village. although the village government cannot simply form a village rule to elaborate a higher-level legislation if there is no order from the regulation or delegation because the original affairs or authorities held by the village are very limited. the position of the village regulation actually still includes the legislation. this is based on the provisions of article 8 of law number 12 the year 2011 on the establishment of laws and regulations:14 1. the types of legislation other than those referred to in article 7 paragraph (1) include the regulations stipulated by the people's consultative assembly, the people's legislative assembly, the regional representative council, the supreme court, the constitutional court, the supreme audit board, the judicial commission, bank indonesia, a commission, body or commission of the same level established by law or government on the order of the act, provincial people's legislative assembly, governor, regency / municipal house of representatives, regent / mayor, village head or equivalent. 2. the laws and regulations referred to in paragraph (1) are recognized and have the binding legal force to the extent required to be ordered by a higher legal regulation or established by authority. the concept of a democratic constitutional state of the existence of legislation, including the village regulations in its formation, must be based on several principles, which can be distinguished in two (2) categories of legislation formation of appropriate 13

containing promises or abilities spoken or written1 the agreement may be made by anyone, between one person and another, or between an individual and a legal entity, this is because the agreement embraces the principle of freedom of contract. the agreement is a promise of two or more parties who make an agreement, so as not to close the possibility of those promises are not met. the accomplishment of a treaty is the exercise of the things that have been agreed upon or that have been written in an agreement by both parties who have committed themselves to it. the counterpart of the achievement is a default, that is, the non-performance of an achievement or a pledge or obligation as may be imposed by the agreement on certain parties mentioned in the agreement, which constitutes a deflection of the exercise of the agreement, resulting in a loss caused by a mistake by one or the parties2 1 subekti, r. 1996: hal 1. law of agreement. jakarta: intermas. 2 munir fuady.

encountered in silent agreement. oral agreements occur a lot in social life, and are often unconscious but there has been agreement, for example in shopping activities in stores, in the markets for daily needs, accounts payable with friends, and others. it can be said that oral agreements are often found in simple agreements, in the sense that they are not complicated in legal relationships and also do not cause great harm to the parties in case of default. but what matters is what if oral agreements are used on agreements that can cause major losses to the parties in the event of default. moreover, when prosecuted in the court, the alleged defendant undertakes the defense by not admitting or denying the oral agreement. making an agreement is basically not tied to a particular form. the civil code does not mention systematically the nature of the agreement. each contracting party shall have the freedom to make the agreement, in the sense that it is free to make the agreement orally or in writing. the principle of freedom of contract is a principle which gives freedom to the parties to.3 a. making or not making agreements; b. make an agreement with anyone; c. determine the contents of the agreement, its implementation, and its terms; and d. determining the form of the agreement, ie written or oral. at present, for certain treaties, there are laws that determine the covenant making in written form in the authentic deed, as follows.4: a. the grant agreement must be written in a notarial deed, except the land rights grant agreement (vide article 1682 civil code); b. the power granting agreement for installing a mortgage on a vessel shall be in writing in a notarial deed (vide article 1171); c. agreement of transfer of receivables secured by mortgages shall be written in notarial deed (vide article 1172 civil code); d. subrogation agreement must be written in notarial deed (vide 1401 sub 2 civil code); e. transitional agreements (especially sale and purchase) of land rights, except through auctions, for registered lands must be in writing in the deed of the land deed (vide article 37 of government regulation no. 24/1997); 3 salim h.s. 2003: hal

the fiduciary guarantee agreement must be in writing or notarial deed (vide article 5 paragraph (1) of law number 42 year 1999); k. the firm establishment agreement shall be in writing in a notarial

of a limited liability company shall be written in a notarial deed (vide article 7 of law number 40 year 2007). the treaty prescribed by the law shall be applied as it shall, because if it is not applied, the legal consequences shall be unlawful treaties, thus null and void, and not giving rise to the treaty (the agreement is considered never existed) (muhammad syaifuddin, 2012: 147). oral agreements are not applicable in the treaties established by the law, in other words, as long as no law governing a treaty must be in writing, the oral agreement is still valid as a treaty binding on the parties that make it. unlawful agreements are lawful to the extent that they comply with the provisions of the criminal code article 1320 on the terms of the validity of an agreement. however, this unwritten agreement will face difficulties in terms of proof of the lawsuit filed by the court when the defendant does not recognize the existence of the agreement before the judge (article 1927 civil code "an oral verdict given outside the court can not be used for verification, except in the case of verification with witnesses allowed. "). the matter of recognition which can be made as a proof of this can be seen in the civil code of article 1923 s / d article 1928. besides the absence of recognition from the party being sued, the obstacles that may be faced are the witnesses (more than one person) who hear and see https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ volume 1, issue 1, march 2018 : 56 64 juridical review the

other means of verification, in the court should not be trusted"). the matter of proof with this witness is contained in article 1906 s / d article 1912 civil code. on the whole of this proof we can see in the fourth (fourth) book of the civil code of evidence and expiration, namely 1) proof with tuliasan, 2) proof with witnesses, 3) proof with comprehension, 4) proof with recognition and 5) oath before the judge. in the settlement of a breach of acquisition, please note first whether the agreement made by the parties is legitimate or unlawful because it binds or does not bind it an agreement to the parties making it dependent on the legitimate or unlawful agreement made by the parties. article 1338 paragraph (1) of the civil code, reads "all legally-made agreements act as laws for those who make them". the validity or nonvalidity of an agreement can be ensured by testing it using a legal instrument. the terms of the validity of an agreement are set forth in book iii of the civil code. article 1320 of the civil code is the principal legal instrument to examine the validity of a treaty made by the parties, since that article determines the existence of 4 (four) conditions which must be fulfilled for the validity of an agreement, namely: a. agree to those who commit themselves; b. ability to make a commitment; c. a certain thing; d. a lawful cause. article 1320 of the civil code concerning the terms of the validity of the treaty, does not govern the form of a treaty, so in making the treaty, the public is freed to determine its form. making a verbal agreement remains valid, as long as it meets the requirements of the validity of the agreement set forth in article 1320.oral agreements are also valid as long as there is no law that determines that the agreement to be made must be in writing. based on such description, the oral agreement also has the legal power to bind the parties making it, so that in case of default in the oral agreement, the oral agreement can be used as a basis to declare a person to default. unconsciously in social life, oral agreements are often done. oral agreements are agreements made by parties solely by oral or mutual agreement of the parties. oral agreements are often found in simple agreements, in the sense that they are not complicated in legal relationships and also do not cause great harm to the parties in the event of default. unlike written agreements, oral agreements do not use the deed. written agreements may be made in a deed under the hand and may be made also in an authentic deed. sufficiently risky if verbal agreements are used in treaties which can cause substantial harm to the parties in the event of default, since the oral agreement https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ volume 1, issue 1,

denies or has not concluded the agreement. the oral agreement in it contains a promise that expresses the declared will and is considered a constitutive element of the binding power of the covenant. a new agreement is formed when there is an encounter or a match between the promises of one party to the other.5 in an agreement it should be seen first whether there is an encounter or agreement between the promises of one party to another, which in this case is included in the terms of the validity of the agreement in article 1320 of the civil code concerning their binding agreements. the agreement in the oral form, means the submission of what is desired and requested by the party who offers to the receiving party. the promise, though expressed verbally and expressed in words and deeds, is a potential factor, the point of what is actually desired in order to affirm certain legal relations of the covenant.6 article 1320 of the civil code concerning the terms of the validity of the agreement is very important to be taken into consideration, because in deciding upon a breach of wanprestasi which is first seen is a valid or invalid agreement. if the agreement is invalid then a person alleged to have committed a non-breach can not be declared to have defaulted. this is reinforced by the judge considering article 1234 civil code which states "each engagement is to give something, to do something, or to do nothing". persons who do not engage in an engagement agreed upon in an agreement may be deemed to have committed a default. the relationship between the agreement and the engagement is that the agreement has a legal effect that causes the engagement. the agreement is the source of the law of engagement other than any other legal source. engagement is a legal relationship in the abstract sense, whereas the covenant is a legal act that creates concrete rights and obligations in the legal relationship.7 under the terms of the terms of the validity of the agreement, there is no requirement in article 1320 of the civil code which requires that an agreement be made in writing. in other words, an orally created agreement is also legally binding for the parties making it, pacta sun servanda (vide: article 1338 civil code. however, in the process of establishing a civil case, the usual evidence used by the argumentating party (vide article 163 hir) is a letter proof. this is because in a civic relationship, a letter / deed is intentionally made with the intention to 5 muhammad syaifuddin. 2012 hal 137. contract law: understanding contracts in

parties concerned. in this case, i will take the example of the debt agreement orally. in the case of an agreement of oral debt, then other evidence instruments other than letter proof (vide: article 1866 civil code and article 164 hir) can be applied. therefore, if a party (plaintiff) wishes to postulate the existence of an agreement of oral debts to the court, the plaintiff may file a witness evidence which may explain the agreement of the oral debts. in the event that a plaintiff filed a witness to corroborate the argument on the existence of an agreement of oral debt, it is known the principle of unus testis nullus testis, affirmed in article 1905 of the civil code as follows: "the description of a witness only, without any other evidence, before the court should not be trusted" this means that a witness is not sufficient to prove an event or a covenant, since there is a minimum amount of proof in filing witness evidence, at least two witnesses, or one witnesses accompanied by other evidence, for example the recognition of the opposing party make the agreement (vide: article 176 hir) or in the case of any suspicion (article 173 hir), for example, there is already some debt paid to the plaintiff. an agreement of any kind must be an engagement therein, since the covenant is the source of the engagement. giving something is an act of surrendering ownership or by certain measures, surrendering from the enjoyment of the property.8 article 1238 of the civil code states "the debtor is negligent, if he by warrant or by a similar deed has been declared negligent, or for his own engagement, is if it establishes that the debtor shall be deemed negligent by the passage of the prescribed time". a negligent statement is a legal remedy in which the creditor notifies, reprimands, and warns the debtor when at the latest it is obligated to fulfill the performance and when that time is exceeded, the debtor is negligent.9 certain circumstances to prove a default debtor are not required negligent statements. certain circumstances, for example, namely.10 a. to ensure achievement is a fatal grace period; b. the debtor rejects fulfillment; c. the debtor admits his negligence; d. fulfillment of achievements is not possible; e. fulfillment is no longer licensed; and 8 (mariam darusbadrulzaman. 2015. the law of alliance in the third book civil code.

defined as a protection afforded to legal subjects in the form of either repressive or repressive means, whether oral or written. in other words it can be said that the protection of the law as a separate feature of the function of the law itself, which has the concept that the law gives a justice, order, certainty, benefit and peace. consumer law is defined as the whole legal principles and rules governing relationships and problems between various parties or each other related to goods and / or services within the social life. based on article 163 hir and article 1865 of the civil code, any party that argues for a right, then the party must prove it. so if the consumer demands his right to the business actor that harms him, then the consumer must prove. however, in law number 8 year 1999 concerning consumer protection article 22 and article 28, the evidentiary obligation is "reversed" (reversed proof) to be the full responsibility and responsibility of the business actor. so the provisions on responsibility and redress in the consumer protection act are lex specialists against the general provisions contained in the civil code. conclusion the oral agreement is still valid and has the legal power to declare a person to default, but if the oral agreement is denied / not recognized by the alleged infringer, the oral agreement has no legal power to declare a person to default, because the agreement is true and can also not exist, depending on the proof of the parties. this is because the presence or absence of the agreement is crucial in declaring a person to make a default, because a person can not be declared wanprestasi if there is no agreement made.oral agreements denied / not acknowledged by any of the parties making them, do not have the force of law to declare a person to default, but a verbal agreement that has been denied / unrecognized may regain its legal power if it can be proven that the oral agreement actually exists or ever made. law no. 8

2. increased professionalism of public servant officials; 3. corporatization of public service units; 4. development and utilization electronic government for public service agencies; 5. increased public participation in public services; 6. giving awards and sanctions to the community service unit. as the first step in efforts to improve quality public service is through revitalization, restructuring, and deregulation in the field of public services. by changing the position and role in revitalization of bureaucracy in providing services to the public. from those volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 43 53 50 | regional autonomy in realizing good governance who like to govern and govern, to change to serving, from those who like to use the power approach, turn to be helpful towards a flexible collaborative direction, and from slogans ways to realistic ways of working. in connection with this, it is emphasized that the public bureaucracy should not prioritize authority, but what needs to be prioritized is the role of public servants. another important aspect of improving the quality of public services is conducting institutional restructuring by forming the right organization. appropriate organizational can be interpreted as an effort to simplify the bureaucratic governmental organization aiming to develop a more proportional, flat transparent, short hierarchy and decentralized authority. the posture of public service organizations will be more proportional, effective and efficient and supported by quality human resources. this can happen if public officials are committed to the four principles of service quality, namely reliability, surprise, recovery and fairness. reliability concerning the reliability and accuracy of services. this concerns the fulfilment of promises. the quality of service will be highly dependent and is usually measured by the terra principle which stands for service quality elements which include: tangibles, forty, reliability, responsiveness and assurance.11 in the future, what can be expected from regional autonomy is the provision of more satisfying public services, accommodating community participation, reducing the burden on the central government, growing regional independence and maturity and formulating programs that are more in line with regional needs. in this case, it can be seen that regional autonomy is a manifestation of political will to improve public services. in addition, regional autonomy was also recognized as a principle needed for government efficiency. therefore, the government needs to be closer to the community, so that the services provided are getting better. according to the government’s view of science, one way to bring government closer to society is to implement a decentralization policy. c. optimization of human resources in the region human resources are the potential contained in humans to realize their role as social beings who adaptive and transformative are able to manage themselves and all the potential contained in achieving prosperity in a balanced and sustainable order. human resources are one of the key factors in economic reform, namely how to create quality and skilled human resources with high competitiveness in global competition. the 21st century presents a national and international strategic environment that is different from the strategic challenges faced in the 20th century. at the end of 11maani, k. d.

indonesia email: rizkiramadani18@gmail.com abstract this research aims to know, analyze, and formulate the independency indicators of independent institutions based on the concept of independent regulatory agencies (iras) in advanced countries (united states and europe). also as an efforts to examine and see the extent to which independent institutions in indonesia meet these indicators. this study focuses on kpk institution that are well known as one of independent institutions in indonesia. although in practice it often rise the controversy and resistance from many parties. the method used in this legal research is normative legal research, conducted through literature study or secondary data. data consists of legal materials primary, secondary and tertiary, which are then processed descriptive-prescriptively. the research also uses several approaches such as legal, conceptual, and case approach. keywords: independent regulatory agencies (iras), independence, kpk introduction compared to the united states, it can be argued that the term independent state institution (lni) in the context of indonesia doesn’t have any meaningful justification. this is because until the present day there has not been a single article in the legislation which mention the term " independent state " definitively. in the early time of the uud nri 1945 (1945 constitution) formulation, the lni has not yet found a place of discussion in the constitutional format.1 even the term state institution itself has not been discussed. while the 1945 temporary constitution (uuds), used the term "state equipment" to define state institutions, but still has not specifically embedded the word "independent". the legitimacy for the establishment of independent state institution (lni) just gained quite good sentiments only after the amendment of the 1945 constitution.2 the corruption eradication commission (kpk), for example, in article 3 of law no. 30 year of 2002 regarding the corruption eradication commission, states that the corruption 1zainal arifin mochtar, (2016), lembaga negara independen: dinamika perkembangan dan urgensi penataannya kembali pasca-amandemen

of the corruption eradication commission of the republic of indonesia (kpk ri) in indicators of … eradication commission is a state institution which in carrying out its duties and authorities is independent and free from any influence of power. there is no formulation or further explanation regarding the independent aspect which has been mentioned. in fact, when the kpk translated the word 'independent' in the form of concrete actions against various corruption cases, controversy arose. even by some parties it is often regarded as a form of arrogance by the superbody institution. related to the phenomenon above, it becomes important and strategic to formulate measurable standards of independency for independent institutions. it is also interesting to examine the independency of independent institutions in indonesia by by referring to the institutional concept and design in europe and united states. this review will focus on the institutional and independency aspects of kpk as one of the independent state institutions in indonesia. method as a legal research, this research is a study of the concept of independency and institutional independence. thus this research requires secondary data from literature studies. based on this, this research is included in the type of normative research. from its nature, this research is descriptive-prscriptive. information from various aspects of the issues discussed in this research, this research uses several approaches, such as statutory approach, second, case approach, third, conceptual approach. analysis and discussion independent regulatory agencies (iras) indicators as indicators of independent state institutions (lni) in indonesia in contrast to the existence of independent institutions that are still vague in indonesia, the opposite can be found in the united states and europe. where independent state institutions or commonly called independent regulatory agencies (iras) are legally guaranteed by the legislation and even explicitly and limitatively mentioned. this exist for example in the provisions of the paperwork reduction act44 (u.s.c. § 3502), which in point (5) states; ”the term “independent regulatory agency” means the board of governors of the federal reserve system, the commodity futures trading commission, the consumer product safety commission, the federal communications commission, the federal deposit insurance corporation, the federal energy regulatory commission, the https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ volume 1, issue 2, july 2018 : 82 94 | 84 the independency of the corruption eradication commission of the republic of indonesia (kpk ri) in indicators of … federal housing finance agency, the federal maritime commission, the federal trade commission, the interstate commerce commission, the mine enforcement safety and health review commission, the national labor relations board, the nuclear regulatory commission, the occupational safety and health review commission, the postal regulatory commission, the securities and exchange commission, the bureau of consumer financial protection, the office of financial research, office of the comptroller of the currency, and any other similar agency designated by statute as a federal independent regulatory agency or commission”.3 under these provisions, it can be known immediately that there are at least nineteen state institutions which explicitly designated as independent state institutions or iras. thus exist a role model or blue print regarding what independent regulatory agencies refer to in the context of the united states. in contrary, other institutions which are not included in the provisions or their institutional characteristics are not entirely the same, not included as the iras. the institutional design of iras or independent institution in the united states as proposed by funk and seamon, elaborate the characteristics of iras into the following elements; “these characteristics are (1) they are headed by multi-member groups, rather than a single agency head; (2) no more than a simple majority of these members may come from one political party; (3) the member of the group has fixed, staggered tems, so that their terms do not expire at the same time; and (4) they can only be removed from their position for “cause”, unlike most executive officials, who serve at the pleasure of the president.”4 while zainal arifin mochtar as he quoted fro, milakovich and gordon describes some of the characteristics of american and european independence institution as follows; 1) the institution has collegial leadership, so decisions are taken collectively. 2) the members or the commissioners of the institution do not serve what the president desires. 3more see “the paperwork of reduction act of 1980”. as quoted from https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/44/3502 this regulation is essentially designed to lighten the administrative burden of government agencies in the private sector by delegating such authority to institutions outside the executive. all of these rules contain procedural requirements for such institutions in exercising their authority. see

federal reserve board in america. 4) the period of his position is "staggered". that means, every year each commissioner changes gradually and therefore, a president can not fully control the leadership of the relevant institutions. 5) the number of members or commissioners is odd and decisions are made by a majority of the votes 6) membership of this institution usually maintains a representative partisan balance5. thatcher, who analyzed the phenomenon of iras in britain, france, germany and italy, drew the conclusion that there are three most important aspects of iras, namely the independence of elected officials, relationships with other administrative institutions (regulatees), and decision making process. he then explained that the independence of iras in practice can be seen from five indicators which are; 6 1) party politicisation of appoinments, which means the greater politicization towards iras, the smaller its independence. it also affects greater oversight by elected officials (executive / parliament). 2) departures (dismissal and resignation), ie the dismissal of iras members before the end of the term of office, the more frequent and rapid the dismissal, the lower the independence. 3) the tenure of ira members, the longer their tenure, the greater their independence to the elected officials. 4) the financial and staffing resources of the ira, namely independence in terms of finance and resource management. 5) the use of power to overturn the decisions of iras by elected politicians, ie the extent to which government officials are able to change the iras' decisions and policies. in addition to institutional characteristics, independence is also manifested in the characteristics of the authority possessed by the lni. in the united states, there are many federal government bodies granted constitutional authority by legislatures (through law) to exercise power independently. these federal agencies practically carry out government

indonesia (kpk ri) in indicators of … functions by combining the legislative, executive and judicial powers. regarding this quasicharacteristic authority funk and seamon point out; “specifically, an agency may have (1) the “quasi-legislative” power to adopt regulations that control people’s everyday conduct; (2) the executive power too enforce those regulatios and ther law that he agency is responsible for administering; and (3) the quasi-judicial power to apply those regulations and laws in individual cases.…some agencies not only combine powers resembling those of the three separate branches but also are somewhat insulated from presidential control, these are called “independent agencies”..”7 in american and european countries, it's widely known that the state institutions which categorized as iras have regulatory authority or rule making function.8 this "self regulatory" characteristic is one of the elements of iras in beside the independency. based on several concepts and models of independence initiated by the experts above, the authors intend to integrate these views in order to establish an ideal standard of independence according to the concept of independent regulatory agencies (iras). this independence standard will be used as an indicator in analyzing and examining the independence aspect of kpk institution which becomes the object of study in this research. those indicators of independence are formal independence (formal independence) aspects which includes; 1) personnel independence, which consist of several aspects namely; a. appointment and dismissal protection, ie mechanism for the appointment and dismissal of the institution's head under certain causation stipulated in law, thus not depending on the will of the president alone. b. multi-member groups, namely the leadership model that plural or collective leadership is composed of several people with decision making that is collegial c. nonpartisan members; leadership that is not majority and not dominated from one party or certain group d. definitive terms of office; namely the defined and definitive term of office of the member. 2) functional independence, consisting of; a. regulatory authorities / quasi legislative power; namely having the authority of rulemaking or stipulating regulations in certain fields mandated and established by law. 7 william f. funk dan

regulating and determining budget and managing internal affairs. b. external relation; namely the mechanism of inter-institutional relations. the extent to which the lni independent from influence and dependence with other institutions. in addition to the formal independence aspects above, the analysis will also be conducted towards the aspects of informal independence (de facto independence). this is done by applying case study approach to several aspects of the authority implementation and real condition of the institution. some concepts from mark thatcher are used as indicator of analysis which are; 1) politicisation of appoinments, ie to see if there is politicization in terms of appointment of the leadership of the institution. 2) departures (dismissal and resignation), ie how often the chairman of the institution stepped down from office before his term ended. 3) the use of power to overturn the decisions of iras, ie the extent to which other institutions are able to change and influence the decisions or policies of the lni. the formal independence of corruption eradication commision republic of indonesia (kpk ri) speaking about kpk as independent state institution (lni), the aspect of formal independence are institutionalized and reflected in it’s legal provision which is law no. 30 of year 2002 concerning the commission for the criminal act of corruption. based on the formal independence indicator in the concept of independent regulatory agencies or iras which are consisting of personnel independence, functional, and institutional aspects and their respective elements, the independence of kpk can be seen in the following table; https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ volume 1, issue 2, july 2018 : 82 94 | 88 the independency of the corruption

exist article 6 letter b: supervision on the authorized institution in corruption eradication; article 15 point 2: the kpk shall prepare an annual report and submit it to the president of the republic of indonesia, the house of representatives of the republic of indonesia, and the state audit board; based on table 1 it can be seen that the institutional design of the corruption eradication commission as contained in the provisions of law 30 of year 2002 almost fulfill all of formal independence indicators in the concept of iras. in terms of personnel independence, the kpk has met the mandatory requirement to be categorized as iras, referring to the mechanism of removal protection, ie the regulation concerning dismissal of 'certain causes' which does not depend on the 'political taste' of the president. similarly, the collegial leadership model and the collective decision making process. nevertheless, although in the selection of the commissioners involving a committee chosen by the kpk itself, the final decision to vote is still in the hands of the dpr (congress). makes it a big potential for politicization towards the candidates for by the politician. in fact, congress will generally vote for the same candidate based on political preference, or at least as appropriate to their interests. the authority of the legislative assembly to elect its own

of … public officials is still rising a debate in the context of constitutionality, since it is basically the authority of the president as the hig hest executive officer or head of government to do so. in the aspect of functional independence, unfortunately the kpk has no authority in regulatory or rulemaking, which is one of the important aspects of iras. its tasks, authorities and functions have been implemented based on existing regulations spread in corruption act, kpk act and general provisions on criminal law procedure. however, basically quasi-judicial authority such as investigation, prosecution and supervision over other institutions in the case of corruption crime is sufficient to classify the kpk as an independent institution. the formal independence of the kpk also exists in terms of organizational and staffing that can independently managed by the it's own. thing is also supported by the budget which allocated directly from the apbn (state budget of income and expenditure). from a relational perspective to other institutions, the kpk's responsibility to provide an annual report to the president, including the house of representatives (legislative branch) and also audited by bpk, doesn't indicating the dependence of kpk to other organs. in fact, it is necessary to ensure the institution's accountability to the public. it's also used as a control mechanism of the people's and the government in assessing kpk's performance in general. de facto independence of kpk it must be acknowledged that behind the institutional design of the corruption eradication commission (kpk) which almost entirely in accordance with the concept of independent state institutions in the modern era (iras), its existence in indonesia is the most often reaping conflict and being exposed to various problems. since the antasari azhar leadership, the term "lizard vs. crocodile" emerged as an analogy of the kpk conflict against the polri. the course of this conflict then not only happened once, but up to three times (volume i, ii, iii in the language of the media) in every change of kpk management. the conflicts which occured varies from the issue of criminalization, to the investigation authority dispute between two institutions.9 9for example after the conflict of "lizard vs. crocodile" (volume i) in july 2012, the dispute between kpk vs. police was reopened (volume ii), after kpk appointed former chief of police traffic corps inspector djoko susilo as suspect of corruption case in sim simulator project. in fact, before the police headquarters has stated, after investigating the internal investigation, did not find the element of corruption in the project, involving djoko susilo there was a dispute over the authority between the kpk and police in investigating the corruption case. while in the third conflict, beginning with the determination of the suspect by the commission against komjen budi gunawan who is a candidate for chief of police. in the aftermath of this long feud, two kpk commissioners, abraham samad and bambang widjoyanto, were arrested by the police criminal investigation unit (police criminal investigation unit) each with a family card case and alleged witness briefing by bw when handling election dispute cases in the constitutional court. automatically both are disabled as kpk leaders. while on the polri, komjen budi gunawan canceled off as the chief of police was replaced by baddrodin haitian commander. see tempo magazine, "sim salabim sim simulator", 23-29 april 2012 edition.

of … in practice, it can be concluded that in terms of the de facto independence, kpk has great constraints in the aspect of the use of power to overturn the decisions of iras, as proved by the frequent intervention of polri in the exercise of the kpk's authority. whereas specifically in corruption, the act regarding kpk has determined that it has supervision authority over other institutions. this agency's intervention has not been included from the alleged effort of systematic weakening against kpk by the legislative through revision of kpk and kuhap regulation. for example with the proposal to revoke kpk's authority in recruiting independent investigators, and forming an executive council that acting as extension of the president's hand to control and oversee the performance of the kpk.10 the idea of revision on the corruption eradication commission by legislative which is non-transparent and not disclose will affect the existence of kpk as law enforcer.11 recently, the public was also preoccupied with the question of the right of inquiry submitted by the legislative (dpr) against the kpk, which then led to the final decision by the constitutional court allowing such action. in the departures (dismissal and resignation) indicators, the kpk was reaping very bad results. throughout the kpk's record, there were several commissioners who were disbanded before their term ends. among them is the former kpk commissioner antasari azhar, who was found guilty of a crime of premeditated murder.in kpk volume ii, commissioners chandra hamzah and bibit waluyo also had dimissed in charge of the bribery case. in addition, there is also abraham samad, former chairman of the corruption eradication commission in the third regime who was hit by a family card forgery case, and bambang widjoyanto who holds the status of a suspect in bareskrim polri for the case of witnesses manipulation. both are dismissed by the president, even though the provisions state that commissioner can only be dismissed if he/she has bear the status of a defendant. in the aspect of politicisation of appoinments, the discourse of the politicization of kpk began to emerge since the election of the kpk in 201612, where the names are predicted to be strong and have a good track record was not removed by the house. there are allegations that the house of representatives tends to vote for one candidate with the same agenda and interests of the house.13 particularly in the election of basaria panjaitan with the background of polri, it is considered that the public is not in line with the effort to independent kpk from the influence of polri. 10lihat http://www.cnnindonesia.com/politik/20151007125208-32-83389/icjr-dewan-eksekutif-intervensi-pemerintahdi-kpk/ lihat juga

republic of indonesia (kpk ri) in indicators of … tabel 2. de facto independence of kpk independency elements description politicisation of appoinments politicisation by legislative in the selection process of commissioner candidates. departures (dismissal and resignation), some of kpk commissioners are dismissed before the office term due to criminal cases. the use of power to overturn the decisions of iras intervention to kpk's authority by national police department, ressitance and some efforts to weakening the institution by the legislative. kpk commissioner selection has always been a problem. one of them was when the antasari azhar corruption eradication commission (kpk) candidate was reported to the supervisory section of the ago on the alleged violation of the code of conduct of the prosecutors by a number of students who joined in the anti-manipulation student movement (geram bumn). in other cases, a pattern that threatens the independence of kpk's filling position has also been conducted by the president against the kpk, which at that time was short of commissioners. as known, the appointment of kpk commissioners as an independent institution requires them to be elected through selection mechanisms, but the president actually issues a perppu which in principle enlarges the president's authority to appoint kpk commissioners. if the recruitment mechanism is not corrected immediately, the politicization of kpk commissioner elections will clearly affect the level of independence as an lni. conclusion based on the description above, the independence of an independent institution or lni can be divided by two indicators. first, the formal independency which includes aspects of institutional design. this formal indicator can also be used as a reference or blueprint for the future establishment of independent institutions in indonesia. secondly, non-formal or de facto independence, which used as indicators in practice, such as politicization election, and external resistance. in the context of the kpk, there has been no correspondence between the formal independence aspect and the implementation according to de facto independence.. the kpk's institutional design, which is formally very independent, yet has not been able to make the kpk truly independent in its implementation level. by that time, the government and the public must be more consistent and have greater commitment regarding to the position and guarantee the independence of kpk in the indonesian state administration system. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/

and twice, and twice, the government of denpasar city through the health office in collaboration with bbpom routinely conducts checks and supervisions of sanitation and security of processed food which is marketed in various regions in denpasar city. keywords : guidance and supervision; food quality; regulation; hygiene sanitation; food security. introduction the definition of food is contained in law number 18 of 2012 concerning food. food includes food and beverages to be a basic human need. therefore, the need for food is increasing along with the growth of the population of a country. as a basic requirement, trade in foodstuffs and processed food products is found in every corner of indonesia. increasing food needs creates an increase in food sales. in addition to food sales, there are also sales of processed foods and beverages, even fast food processed, which is currently in demand by most indonesians because it is considered practical and efficient. however, problems arise because processed food traders often do not pay attention to environmental and safety hygiene in food and beverage processing. this happened because regulations related to hygiene and safety of food quality were not effective, lack of supervision of traders, lack of public awareness of food quality, and lack of socialization of food hygiene and safety. as a result, there have been many cases of food poisoning. volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 31 42 32 | regulation of food quality development and supervision in denpasar city based on data from the national poisoning information center (sikernas), from january to march 2017, there were 23 incidents of food poisoning which were dominated by food poisoning as many as 19 incidents in which there were 17 incidents of food poisoning and 2 incidents of beverage poisoning. then from april to june 2017, there were 31 incidents of food poisoning which were again dominated by food poisoning as many as 27 incidents in which there were 24 incidents of food poisoning described as follows: 1 incident due to consumption of processed food in packaging there were 4 victims; 4 incidents due to consumption of processed street food snacks (pkl) were 102 victims; 10 incidents due to processed food catering services have 666 victims; 9 incidents due to processed household food have 493 victims. and 3 incidents due to processed drinks there were 96 victims. continued in july to september 2017 there were 39 incidents which were dominated by 30 food incidents in which there were 27 incidents of food poisoning described as follows: 9 incidents of food poisoning in food services there were 422 victims; 8 incidents of household food poisoning have 249 victims; 6 incidents of pkl processed food poisoning have 88 victims; 2 incidents of food poisoning in the pack have 22 victims; 1 incident of food poisoning which is unknown, there are 7 victims. and 3 incidents of drink poisoning have 16 victims1. food quality must be considered by every food and beverage business actor.2 food quality is defined as the value determined on the basis of the safety criteria and nutritional content of food as referred to in article 1 number 36 of act number 18 of 2012 concerning food. food quality consists of several aspects, namely nutritional aspects, business aspects and health aspects3. with the existence of food quality, it is hoped that producers or food entrepreneurs will pay more attention to the cleanliness of sanitation and the safety of processed food and beverages produced and sold. the community as consumers must also be aware of the importance of consuming processed food that is clean and safe so that it does not interfere with public health. the government has the most important role in creating regulations, fostering and supervising food hygiene and security to avoid outbreaks of malnutrition and food poisoning as recently happened, namely malnutrition in the asmat regency of papua to death. in denpasar city there were several cases of food poisoning, namely in 2012, there were cases of food poisoning so that twenty-one people had to be hospitalized4. then in 2014, there were food poisoning cases so that twenty-two people had to be hospitalized 1bpom.

how is the protection for consumers in the purchase of flats made by the order process? writing this journal has two objectives, namely general goals and specific objectives. the general purpose is to develop the scientific field of law in the field of notary as a legal study relating to ppjb in terms of consumer protection for flats. the specific purpose of writing this journal is to analyze and understand the strength of ppjb in terms of legal protection for consumers of flats; and to review and analyze the protection of consumers in purchasing flats when buying and selling flats with an order process. the theoretical study related to this research related to this research is later in order to be useful for the reader in connection with the instructions to get references especially in the field of notary and provide additional sources of thought regarding the position of ppjb with regard to legal supervision of buyers regarding sales and home purchases. stacking; for this research lecturer and student team can function as thought material and support lecture activities in terms of ppjb as legal safeguards for clients in the sale and purchase of flats. this research is also expected to be a guide for the community when facing problems in terms of ppjb sale and purchase of flats as legal protection for consumers; for the author, the results of this study can be additional knowledge, especially in the case of ppjb as a legal shield for buyers of apartment sales and purchase transactions and as a final provision for completing final studies in the notary masters of the faculty of law, udayana university. method the type of research done in this journal is a normative legal research. this research is based on an ambiguity of the norm related to the position of ppjb in terms of protection against consumers during sale and sale transactions. the housing law stipulates that the sale and purchase transactions of flat housing units that are still in volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 21 30 | 25 standing commitment of sale and purchase agreement (ppjb) in purchasing flats unit as legal protection for consumers development stage are made using ppjb manufacture. the process of making ppjb is in front of notary. the making of ppjb in a sale and purchase transaction of a flat usually uses a basic agreement and is made by the seller, so that the principle of freedom of expression is not practiced at the time of a contract. other ambiguities that the ppjb did not fully guarantee the buyer in the sale of the flats, because ppjb did not transfer the ownership rights of the flats. the transfer of ownership from the seller to the buyer occurs when the trade and purchase (ajb) is signed on behalf of the seller and buyer. the type of approaches undertaken in this normative legal research isthe statute approach, and the fact approach. this research uses the source of the primary law material namely civil code, law number 20 year 2011 about the house, law number 8 year 1999 about consumer protection. in addition to primary legal materials, this study also uses secondary sources of legal materials such as legal journals, legal readings, legal papers and journals as well as the opinions of scholars from jurisprudents. techniques of collecting legal materials conducted in this research are literature study techniques. this research also uses legal analysis technique with description technique, interpretation technique, construction technique, evaluation technique, argumentation technique, and systematization technique. analysis and discussion a. legal strengths of the agreement on bonds for sale and purchase (ppjb) in the sale and purchase process of flats ppjb is an event of sale and purchase of objects in which the parties agree that an item at a future time will transfer ownership rights to another person. this ppjb actually does not result in a transfer of property rights from one party to another, but ppjb is an agreement between sellers who are apartment developers and prospective buyers of flats in terms of buying and selling units of the flats. in addition, ppjb also results in the existence of rights and obligations that must be carried out by both parties.12 the emergence of ppjb, wherein the parties are sellers and buyers when linked to the scope of an agreement, ppjb is contained in an obligatory agreement. the definition of an obligatory agreement is one that has been validated so that one agreement will become a bond between the parties, but this agreement only brings out the rights and obligations of the parties bound and has not yet occurred the transfer of rights from the object agreed.13 consideration of the emergence of ppjb in the sale 12simamora, n. a., kamello, t., sembiring, r., & leviza, j.

(sheldon & sankaran, 2017) (varkkey, 2014) (heilmann, 2015) (bilqis, 2020) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ mailto:myrnaasnawati@univpancasila.ac.id http://dx.doi.org/10.56087/substantivejustice.v5i2.204 volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 205 – 215 206 | weak investment law… in the last five years there has been a downward trend in forest and land fires in indonesia. however, this does not mean that the threat of forest and land fires can be eliminated. after the massive 2015 forest and land fires that engulfed 2.6 million hectares of forest and land in the country, 2016 to 2021 saw a significant decline. based on data from indonesia's ministry of environment and forestry (klhk) from 2016 to 2021, the average area of forest and land burned was approximately 573 thousand hectares. the highest fire occurred again in 2019 which consumed 1.6 million hectares. but after that, the level of forest and land fires can be maintained not exceeding 400 thousand hectares. (al-jalahma et al., 2020) forest and land fires in 2015 mostly occurred in forestry and plantation concession areas. the 2015-2016 forest and land fires involved 30 corporations, and from 2019 to 2021 there were 19 corporations. these include corporations with foreign capital. (juniar, 2021) forest and land fires threaten biodiversity, trigger damage to forest ecosystem functions and increase global temperatures. loss of life, property, health, and furthermore national and regional economies are also affected by forest and land fires. the world bank, for example, stated that economic losses due to forest and land fires in indonesia in 2015 reached usd 1.6 billion or 2% of indonesia's gross domestic product (gdp) at that time. (glauber et al., 2016) indonesia's investment law actually adheres to the principle of being environmentally sound. this law states that investors have an obligation to maintain the environment. it also requires investors who cultivate non-renewable natural resources to allocate funds for environmental restoration. however, law enforcement in this investment sector is still weak. for this reason, it is important to know how the investment law regulates sanctions against investors who do not carry out environmental maintenance obligations and government supervision of the implementation of environmental obligations of investors. a review of the literature shows that the legal aspects of investor liability are mostly studied from criminal, civil, administrative, and international law perspectives. no studies have been found that investigate the ability of investment law to strengthen investors' legal responsibility for the environment. studies on the legal responsibility of corporations and investors for the prevention of forest and land fires explain the importance of making clear criteria in the formulation of the responsibility of corporations, shareholders and officers of the corporation. (wibisana, 2016) (gintoe et al., 2019) (ikhsana & rahmah, 2021) (juniar, 2021) (wikasitakusuma & hartiwiningsih, 2022) however, studies that explore the relationship between investment law in indonesia and environmental law enforcement, especially in the case of forest and land fires, have yet to be found. apart from the sanction aspect, supervision of investment is also important. one study recommends that oversight of investors is not only carried out by the government but also parliament. the house of representatives in this case needs to increase supervision of the government that provides investment licenses. parliament is also expected to encourage the government to tighten supervision on companies. (yusyanti, 2019) however, how the volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 205 – 215 weak investment law… | 207 government, in this case the ministry of investment, conducts supervision has not been discussed. investment law that has a firm and robust formulation of norms on investors' environmental obligations and responsibilities can strengthen the implementation of a multi-door approach in environmental law enforcement that allows the use of various laws and regulations in handling a legal case. so far, the multi-doors approach has not used the investment law regime. it can be presumed that this is due to the weak legal sanctions provided by existing investment law. therefore, to strengthen the multi-doors approach, strengthening sanctions in investment law is needed. (trisna agus, 2019) (aminudin et al., 2020) this article aims to describe the development of international and transnational investment law today and relate it to the quality of norms in the investment law relating to sanctions and supervision of investors who do not carry out their environmental obligations and responsibilities. it is important that norms related to sanctions and supervision are formulated clearly and firmly so that law enforcement can be strengthened. method this paper is based on legal research using a statutory approach. legal materials are mainly taken from laws relating to investment, environment and forestry. several international legal instruments such as united nations resolutions and relevant international treaties are also used. the focus of the research is the development of international investment law associated with the quality of legal norms in investment law that can support law enforcement. this research assesses the robustness of legal norms based on two elements, namely the existence and clarity of the formulation of sanctions and supervision rules that will determine the enforcement power of the investment law under study. analysis and discussion this section explains three things related to the focus of the research, namely the concept of environmental responsibility in multinational investment; the regulation of sanctions against the obligations and responsibilities of foreign investors in indonesian investment law and the scope of supervision of investment in indonesian law. in the foreign investors concept of environmental responsibility, recent developments in transnational business show that investors are now held accountable for integrating environmental, social responsibility and good business governance. the environment, social and governance (esg) approach to investment has emerged in line with demands to implement green investments and respect human rights. (henderson, 2012) (aljalahma et al., 2020) (macneil & esser, 2022) three driving factors behind the emergence of the concept of transnational corporate environmental responsibility. the first is the rise of demands by investment host countries on transnational corporations to protect the environment, either in domestic or international dispute volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 205 – 215 208 | weak investment law… resolution forums. the second factor is the recent trend of investment treaties demanding the inclusion of clauses on respect for human rights, environmental protection and social responsibility of transnational corporations when operating in the host country. finally, united nations resolution 26/9 elaborates the use of internationally legally binding instruments on transnational corporations and other business enterprises in relation to human rights. (gathii & puig, 2019) un resolution 26/9 emphasizes three points. the first is that the primary obligation and responsibility of states is to promote and protect human rights from violations that occur within their national jurisdiction, including violations committed by transnational corporations. second, it emphasizes that transnational corporations are responsible for respecting human rights and that civil society has an important role to play in promoting corporate social responsibility, and supporting efforts to prevent, mitigate and seek remedies for adverse human rights impacts resulting from the activities of transnational corporations. important to note is the un resolution on guiding principles on business and human rights (resolution 17/4). this resolution commands business entities, among other things, to avoid causing or contributing to adverse human rights impacts and to address such impacts when they occur. business entities are also required to prevent or mitigate human rights impacts that are directly linked to their operations, products or services, even if they do not contribute to those impacts. the business and human rights guidelines are an important instrument to enforce the environmental responsibility of transnational corporations because the environment is intrinsically linked to human rights. everyone has the right to a good and healthy environment. this is stated in the indonesian constitution. recent human rights theory also states that the right to the environment is an important part of human rights either procedurally or substantively. (anton & shelton, 2011) (alan, 2017) the un guidelines on business and human rights have been adopted into the national action plan on business and human rights published by the national human rights commission. the document states that the adverse impacts that may be caused by a company's operations include impacts on communities, on the environment and on workers. komnas ham stated that there is an increase in human rights violations involving corporations. one of the most common violations is related to the environment. (prinhandono et al., 2021) given these developments, it is imperative that the environmental obligations and responsibilities of investors, including foreign investors, are taken seriously. the question then is how the investment legal framework in indonesia supports this intention. the following section explains the substance of investment law relating to investors' environmental responsibilities. limitation of legal sanctions on investor's environmental liability and responsibility determined by indonesian regulation, know as job creation intends to improve the investment volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 205 – 215 weak investment law… | 209 ecosystem through the implementation of risk-based business licensing. investment activities according to the job creation law need to mitigate hazards from health, safety and environmental aspects. in reality, investment in the utilization of natural resources is prone to causing environmental damage and pollution. therefore, investment law needs to ensure that environmental disaster mitigation needs to be clearly regulated. the main legal basis for investment activities in indonesia. one of the objectives of this law is to promote sustainable economic development. according to the investment law, environmentally sound principle is one of the principles in investment. this principle requires investors to pay attention to and prioritize the protection and maintenance of the environment. in general, investors have obligations and responsibilities that every investor is obliged to apply the principles of good corporate governance, implement corporate social responsibility, make reports on investment activities and submit them to the investment coordinating board (now the ministry of investment), respect the cultural traditions of the community around the location of investment business activities, and comply with all provisions of laws and regulations. that the responsibilities of investors are to ensure the availability of capital from sources that are not contrary to the law, not to abandon business activities, to create a healthy business climate, to prevent monopolistic practices and activities that harm the state, to preserve the environment, to ensure work safety, and to comply with all provisions of laws and regulations. in practice, there are many violations of the obligations and responsibilities of investors. abandonment of land that has obtained land rights, for example, is widely practiced by investors in the plantation sector. some of the environmental damage and pollution caused by forest and land fires also occurred in the concession areas of foreign investment companies. one of the companies which operates in riau province, is a malaysian palm oil company that was convicted by the supreme court through decision number 2042k/pid.sus/2015. in the verdict, the supreme court sentenced the company to a fine of rp. 1.5 billion (usd 98 thousand) and an additional penalty of restoring 40 hectares of burned land. for this, the company provided idr 15 billion (usd 980 thousand) to the government for environmental restoration costs. in west kalimantan, a similar case occurred involving a subsidiary of a malaysian palm oil company. the district court of sintang, west kalimantan sentenced the company to pay material damages of rp. 270 billion and to pay environmental recovery costs of rp. 642 billion. the total cost incurred by the company was rp. 912 billion. meanwhile, the ministry of environment and forestry is asking for rp. 1 trillion (usd 6.5 million) in compensation and restoration costs. this is for the 2,560 hectares of burned land. law enforcement in the two forest and land fire cases above did not use the investment law at all. despite explicitly stating the responsibility of investors to preserve the environment, there are no sanctions stipulated in the investment law for violations of this responsibility. law enforcement, as in the case of forest and land fires, can certainly be constrained by the absence volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 205 – 215 210 | weak investment law… of these sanctions. environmental law enforcement is the result of various factors such as regulatory content material, government apparatus, infrastructure, community participation and program innovation. (akhmaddhian et al., 2021) nevertheless, the content of the regulation remains the main determining factor. therefore, the existence of clearly and firmly formulated sanctions will be significant in law enforcement. administrative sanctions associated with non-performance of the investor's obligations, not sanctions against non-performance of responsibilities. the investors who do not fulfill their obligations may be subject to administrative sanctions, such as written warnings, restrictions on business activities, suspension of investment activities or facilities, and revocation of licenses or facilities. there are no provisions related to sanctions in the case of breach of responsibility. thus, it can be said that there are no sanctions at all provided by the investment law against nonperformance of environmental conservation responsibilities by investors, including the responsibility to prevent and mitigate forest and land fires in their working areas. environmental responsibility is also regulated in the law on limited liability companies. this law states that companies conducting business in the field of or related to natural resources are obliged to implement social and environmental responsibility. social and environmental responsibility is the company's commitment to participate in sustainable economic development. non-implementation of this obligation may be subject to sanctions in accordance with the provisions of laws and regulations in the field of business. the problem is that there is no sectoral regulation on natural resources that formulates sanctions for non-implementation of social and environmental responsibility. several studies have concluded that law enforcement using sectoral laws in the field of natural resources has not provided a deterrent effect for corporations that commit land burning. in the case of burning by transnational corporations, international and transnational legal instruments are also not sufficient to support the implementation of this environmental responsibility. social and environmental responsibility also needs to be distinguished from the responsibility to protect and preserve the environment. (toppinen et al., 2015) social and environmental responsibility in the limited corporate law is more of a required commitment. meanwhile, the responsibility required here is more than just a commitment but a legal responsibility that implies the imposition of sanctions if ignored. this fact shows that investment law in indonesia still does not support sustainable development. green investment, which is now a global development goal, (ibragimov et al., 2019) (rizzello, 2022) does not appear to be accommodated in the investment law. and at the practical level, the company's willingness to comply with environmental responsibility is still low. (yani et al., 2019) (nyoman et al., 2020) local governments themselves are also still not optimally implementing green investment, as the framework for green development in the regions is still in line with national policies. (sulistio et al., 2019) aims to improve the investment ecosystem, also does not sufficiently strengthen law enforcement of environmentally sound investment. (santosa, volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 205 – 215 weak investment law… | 211 2021) the amendment of the investment law in the job creation law does not change article 15, article 16 and article 34 paragraph (1) of the investment law. nonetheless, the job creation law tries to provide environmental disaster mitigation through the amendment of article 12 paragraph (2) of the investment law that regulates business fields that are closed to investment. initially, the closed business fields only included business fields related to weapons and war equipment. with the job creation law, it is added to the business of catching protected fish species, utilization or collection of coral and coral, as well as the chemical industry and the ozone layer depleting material industry. however, this norm becomes weakly enforced when the job creation law does not change the provisions of the investment law regarding sanctions. as stated earlier, the existing sanctions in the investment law are only administrative sanctions and they are also not related to violations of the investor's environmental responsibility. the drafters of the investment law and the job creation law may have taken the view that sanctions for environmental obligations and responsibilities could be embedded in other laws in the environment and natural resources sector. this has been the practice so far. on the one hand, there is progress in terms of law enforcement using environmental law instruments. however, on the other hand, when a multi-doors approach is also considered important to strengthen law enforcement, the existence of clear and firm sanctions in investment law instruments will be able to strengthen law enforcement, especially in the case of forest and land fires where many foreign investors operate.(thomas et al., 2018) absence of investment supervision in addition to not containing sanctions against violations of investors' responsibility to preserve the environment, the investment law also does not contain rules regarding government supervision of the implementation of investment activities. this law provides more facilities and incentives to investors rather than supervisory aspects. included in the incentives provided are those for investors who take good care of the environment (article 18 paragraph (3) letter g). the ministry of investment as an authorized agency in the field of investment should supervise investors, including foreign investors, so that they do not destroy the environment, such as forest and land burning. however, such supervision is not included in the scope of duties and functions of the ministry of investment, which is regulated by presidential regulation number 63 of 2021. this regulation states that the ministry of investment is tasked with organizing government affairs in the investment sector. the functions carried out include functions related to policy, coordination and synchronization, employee development, management of state property and internal supervision. there is no function that provides the basis for supervision of investors. this supervision may be carried out by sectoral ministries in accordance with the investment business field. however, if this aspect of supervision is also regulated in the investment law regime, it will strengthen the multidoor approach in cases of environmental damage and pollution, as discussed in sub-chapter b. volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 205 – 215 212 | weak investment law… the aspect of supervision by the ministry of investment is needed considering that local government supervision is still not optimal. (sulistio et al., 2019) parliament itself wants supervision to be tightened by asking the government to tighten supervision in licensing and investment implementation. (utomo et al., 2022) in addition, several legal cases of forest and land fires are related to foreign investment. (juniar, 2021) one media outlet, for example, reported that in 2019 four companies suspected of forest and land fires were owned by foreign investors from malaysia and singapore. the four companies were found guilty of violating the environmental protection and management act for committing the crime of land clearing by burning. although they were deemed to have set aside funds to carry out rehabilitation efforts for environmental damage, the four companies were still charged with fines. the obligation of foreign investors to prevent and mitigate forest fires is regulated in the limited liability company law no. 40/2007. the limited liability company law states that companies carrying out business activities in the field of and/or related to natural resources are obliged to carry out social and environmental responsibilities. this responsibility is a reflection of the company's commitment to sustainable development. (renouard & ezvan, 2018) the social and environmental responsibility must be budgeted by the company and calculated as the company's cost. companies that do not carry out social and environmental responsibilities are subject to sanctions in accordance with the sanctions regulated by each regulation in the natural resources sector (article 74 of the pt law). social and environmental responsibility of course also applies to foreign investors because the requirement to do business in indonesia is to have an indonesian legal entity. thus, multinational and transnational companies have an obligation to protect the environment in order to improve the quality of life and a beneficial environment, both for the company itself and the local community, as well as society in general. unfortunately, the formulation of this obligation is not accompanied by a supervisory institution that checks whether the company has carried out its obligations in implementing social and environmental responsibility. conclusion this paper concludes that indonesian investment law is still unable to respond to the development of international investment law that promotes green investment, and has difficulties in strengthening the multi door approach in environmental law enforcement. this is because the indonesian investment law only regulates administrative sanctions on investors who do not fulfill their obligations, and does not specifically regulate sanctions against investors who commit forest fires. the inconsistency of the investment law is also evident from the absence of supervision by the ministry of investment on the obligations and responsibilities of foreign investors to preserve the environment. the job creation law, which aims to improve the investment ecosystem, does not strengthen legal sanctions on investors who do not carry out their environmental obligations and responsibilities. volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 205 – 215 weak investment law… | 213 acknowledgment this article is a further development of an internal research report of a lecturer at the faculty of law, universitas pancasila. the author would like to thank the leadership of the faculty as well as the research and community service unit of the faculty of law, pancasila university of indonesia refference akhmaddhian, s., virigianti, r., & yuhandra, e.

(halim, 2015) (hidayat, 2013) (dimitrova-grajzl et al., 2014) (akerboom & craig, 2022) fort united nations congress on the prevention of crime and the treatment of offenders that the impact of such changes is considered a potential criminogenic, meaning that crime can occur anywhere. therefore, any changes due to the population explosion must be accompanied by the provision of sufficient land and employment so as not to cause social problems and, in the end, can become one of the causes of imbalances in society. sociologically, any imbalance in society will disrupt order and security, and this phenomenon occurs due to aspects of urbanization, industrialization, population growth, population movement, social mobility, and technological change. (kamal, 2022) these social problems do not need to be allowed to develop without any effort to anticipate them. however, https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ mailto:aanaswari@umi.ac.id http://dx.doi.org/10.56087/substantivejustice.v6i1.215 volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 17 – 27 18 | sociology of law perspectives… ideally, a solution must be immediately sought to solve the problem to realize security and public order. based on empirical data, it is known that in the past, every social problem that had the potential to disturb order and security was usually resolved through empowering local wisdom, such as deliberations and consensus. (kawamura, 2013) (tan, 2015) (tamma & duile, 2020). however, with the development of science, technology, and informatics, it turns out that local wisdom has begun to shift and has naturally been replaced by culture from outside. as a result, there are frequent cases of vigilante (eigenrichting) as an option in the context of solving the problem. whereas in formal juridical terms, eigenrichting is a form of unlawful activity, and the perpetrators can be punished. (a & mahfud, 2018) (efendi, 2020) the reality of law enforcement, is it possible that culture from outside, which is adopted through various mass and electronic media (television and internet), can solve social problems in trying to create security and peace in the midst of indonesian society? is it true that indonesian law, which is reduced from local wisdom, is no longer able to solve social problems? then how can these two social phenomena be answered through the application of legal sociology theories. as a legal sociology concept, theoretically, it can be said that the existence of a sociology of law will study law in terms of its visible reality, especially regarding laws that are carried out on a daily basis. at least legal sociology will study the reciprocal relationship between law and other social phenomena. or in other words, legal sociology will study the legal symptoms of a society concerned whose scope includes social structures (social groups, culture, social institutions, social stratification, power, and authority) and social processes. in fact, many theories of the sociology of law can be used to analyze legal phenomena that occur in society in order to be able to provide as many conditions as possible so that the law can apply effectively and efficiently. this is intended so that through the application of legal, sociological theories, it can at least explain the social aspects of law and vice versa, as well as try to predict legal problems that will arise in the future. in indonesia, it is quite ideal if the application of legal sociology theories to social problems, always refers to local wisdom in the form of the philosophical values of the indonesian nation as contained in the iv paragraph of the preamble of the 1945 constitution, namely; belief in one almighty god, just and civilized humanity, indonesian unity, and democracy led by wisdom in deliberations/representations, and by realizing social justice for all indonesian people. local wisdom which has been transformed into the philosophical values of the five precepts of pancasila, (dwi anggono, 2016) has been further elaborated in the constitution (1945 constitution) as the basic law in the life of the society of nation and state. (akbar, 2021) (adji & budi, 2022) it is this basic law that should animate every regulation and legislation produced by the government. however, there is often overlap and at the same time negates sectoral egoism. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 17 – 27 sociology of law perspectives… | 19 analysis and discussion the security issue is not solely an obligation of the state, because the state constitution has emphasized, “every citizen has the right and obligation to participate in maintaining the defense and security of the state.” furthermore, if state security is viewed from the perspective of state functions, especially from the perspective of legal sociology, then the state security function can be classified into; the national defense function is the duty and responsibility of the indonesian army, while the national police is the developer of internal security tasks. the policy of separating the two functions of state security is a reflection of the spirit of reform in all fields, including within the scope of the armed forces of the republic of indonesia (abri). the idea of the new order, which was hidden behind the concept of the dual function of abri as a militaristic and political force, apparently left the impression that there had been an abuse of authority and power. it is said to be an aberration, because the law no longer occupies the top of the pyramid or as commander in chief, and individualism is increasingly entrenched. the abuse of authority and power by the armed forces can affect security and create a sense of fear in society. this can cause the law to no longer be recognized as the supremacy of law and not accepted as the highest authority. the abuse of authority and power by the armed forces can create doubts and distrust of the legal system and government, which in turn can exacerbate the security situation. therefore, the government needs to take action to ensure that the armed forces do not abuse their power and to restore the rule of law as the supreme authority. (rini et al., 2022) the story above has become a socio-juridical reason for people's representatives in parliament to be more proactive in removing indonesian police from abri as a civilian force. this policy is done by setting tap mpr republic of indonesia number vi/mpr/2000 concerning the separation of the indonesian army and indonesian police, and tap mpr republic of indonesia number vii/mpr/2000 concerning the role of the indonesian army and indonesian police. the second follow-up was to tap mpr republic of indonesia so that the law was enacted. law number 34 of 2000 concerning the indonesian national armed forces (indonesian army), and law number 2 of 2002 concerning the indonesian national police, and it should be understood that the two institutions indonesian army and indonesian police are each given authority in the field of state security. (leni, 2013) according to the concept of sociology of law, the existence of the indonesian army and indonesian police as symbols of the state apparatus who are prosecuted must try to establish cooperation, because both are authorized by law to maintain national security, which involves the process whereby persons consider in simple terms the social relationships and other phenomena arising from their interaction. (burkitt, 2015) the importance of social interaction between the indonesian army and indonesian police in the context of protecting every member of society is solely aimed at realizing security and public peace. then for the realization of legal volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 17 – 27 20 | sociology of law perspectives… certainty, the cooperation between the indonesian army and indonesian police as state apparatus should be stated in the form of regulations. it is important to have regulatory authority in the security sector in the form of laws and regulations so that the limits of authority of the two institutions concerned become clear. in addition, it is expected that the authority granted by law appears in reality, cause entitled law without sanctions is correct, that is that system of manipulable symbols that functions as a representation, as a model of social structure. (epstein, 2014) the existence of these two institutions, both the indonesian army and indonesian police, are instruments of the state that are both involved in the realm of national security, but if we go further from the legal basis, then there is a principal difference between the indonesian army and indonesian police in viewing state security. even though it is realized that the army and indonesian police, both are an integral part of the government (in the narrow sense) or the executive which is under the tactical leadership of the president. a juridical sociological consideration contained in the preamble of the law number 34 of 2004 concerning the indonesian national armed forces, it is explained that the notion of national defense is all efforts to uphold state sovereignty, defend the territorial integrity of the unitary republic of indonesia, and the safety of the entire nation from armed threats to the integrity of the nation and state. then the army as a tool of the state in the field of defense in carrying out its duties is based on state policies and political decisions. furthermore, it is explained through the function of the army as a defense tool that expands the task of restoring the state's security conditions that have been disrupted due to security disturbances, whether due to war, rebellion, communal conflict, riots, terrorism, and natural disasters. the function of the indonesian army is generally carried out by a force of arms as a professional military as the organizer of national defense in terms of strategic definition, such as operations to crush armed groups in papua, security for indonesia's outer islands, the release of indonesian-flagged ships taken hostage by somalia rebels, and guarding around the national borders. in this regard, it is only natural and proper for the indonesian army to view security as an abstract value, and to focus on maintaining the independence and sovereignty of the state. while the dimension used must indeed be a militaristic dimension considering the threats that come, namely disturbances due to war, rebellion, communal conflict, riots, terrorism, and natural disasters. with such a function of the indonesian army, it means that the indonesian army is no longer involved and/or involved in practical political activities as it was during the new order era. therefore, the professionalism of the indonesian army as a tool and state apparatus is required to maintain the security and integrity of the state from all possible disturbances from outside. likewise, the sociological juridical considerations contained in the preamble to law number 2 of 2002 concerning the indonesian national police clearly emphasized that the maintenance of volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 17 – 27 sociology of law perspectives… | 21 domestic security is carried out through the implementation of the police function. meanwhile, regarding domestic security from the optics of legal sociology, it is the embodiment of the internal security of a country like indonesia, towards all its people. the meaning of domestic security has been clarified in the formulation of article 1 paragraph (6) of the law number 2 of 2002, that what is meant by domestic security is a condition characterized by the occurrence of security and public order, order and upholding of the law, as well as the implementation of protection, protection, and service to the community. observing the formulation of article 1 paragraph (6) of law number 2 of 2002, it turns out that the realization of domestic security is in line with the functions of the national police contained in article 2 of law number 2 of 2002, that; the function of the police is one of the functions of the state government in the field of maintaining public order and security, law enforcement, protection, protection and service to the community. while its application and implementation must always pay attention to the spirit of upholding human rights, law, and justice. in this regard, it is determined that there are 3 (three) main tasks of the national police: (daryn & iskandar, 2018) 1) maintain public order and security; 2) upholding the law; and 3) provide protection, shelter, and service to the community. among the three main tasks of the national police, one of them is oriented toward security and public order. the notion of security and public order itself refers to the legal spirit of law number 2 of 2002, so it is natural and appropriate if public security and order are interpreted as a dynamic condition of society as one of the prerequisites for the implementation of the national development process in the framework of achieving national goals which are characterized by guaranteed security, order and upholding of law and fostering peace. observing from the optics of the sociology of law the three main tasks of the police concerning several cases that are spreading in the regions, according to the conception of legal sociology that can only be implemented as it should be if the composition of the three main tasks of the police is not seen as a priority arrangement that must be carried out in trying to realize security and order in the country. this is understandably important because the three main tasks of the police are equally important. furthermore, security disturbances in the sense of refers to all forms of law violations and other forms of disturbance that disturb the community. for example; brawls between students that occurred in several big cities, fights between groups or tribes that occurred in papua, land disputes in east lampung over land disputes, there was resistance from two indigenous groups, and migrants from java claiming control over land. (siradjuddin, 2015) regarding the examples of the cases above, it is only natural and proper that the security function carried out by the national police is more oriented towards efforts to promote the public welfare by using economic non-strategic dimensions. it means security here focuses on safeguarding economic resources volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 17 – 27 22 | sociology of law perspectives… and non-military aspects of state functions. thus, the state requires a form of service to all its citizens and/or people utilizing law enforcement efforts and all laws and regulations that regulate, bind, and provide sanctions to anyone who violates the law together with other legal institutions and joins the criminal justice system. population around 2012 the national defense institute republic of indonesia published the definition of national resilience, as the dynamic condition of the indonesian nation which includes all aspects of integrated national life and contains tenacity and toughness that contains the ability to develop national strength. in facing and overcoming all challenges, threats, and disturbances that come from abroad or from within the country to guarantee the identity, integrity, and survival of the nation and state in achieving national goals. (mulyono, 2017) condition of the national life must be realized and fostered continuously as well as synergy starting from the individual, family, environment, and national capital with tenacity and toughness which contains the capacity for national development. personal and family elements are an integral part of the community or population. while the environmental and national elements are an integral part of the territory of the republic of indonesia. these two elements, capitalized on tenacity and toughness, are oriented toward the ability to develop national power. regarding the description above as a concept means a concept of developing potential in the form of national strength through the regulation and implementation of balanced, harmonious and harmonious welfare and security in all aspects of life in society as a whole and comprehensively and integrated based on pancasila, the 1945 constitution, even the archipelagic outlook. (yahaya et al., 2017; yuniarto, 2014) in the previous section, it was stated that some local wisdom has been introduced into philosophical values in the form of the precepts of pancasila. while the five precepts of pancasila, have been translated into the state constitution (1945 constitution). then it is concretized into the concept of archipelagic insight. all of these are expected to be fully and thoroughly integrated into potential strengths for the realization of national resilience. the existence of tannas as a concept is a psycho-analysis to solve every problem through an approach to 8 (eight) aspects of national life called astagatra, consisting of (a) geography; (b) demographics; (c) natural resources; (d) ideology; (e) political; (f) economics; (g) sociocultural; and (h) security defense. the first three aspects (a, b, and c) are natural, usually called trigatra. while the next five aspects (d, e, f, g, and h) are social and are better known as pancagatra. demography or population as an integral part of trigatra, has a very important role in forming national resilience. the reason is that the population is one of the main prerequisites for the formation of a country. the conditions for the formation of a state are, territory, government, legislation, and population, (neno, 2018) regarding the requirements of the population or the people in society, that the people are people who are governed so the state needs to improve its welfare. (putra, 2021) the existence of the population here should be understood as the people of the country, then it is volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 17 – 27 sociology of law perspectives… | 23 these people who need to improve their welfare and prosperity. in addition, the state continues to strive for the existence of the indonesian people to gain recognition in international relations, so the essence of the state can indeed be assumed as a social building of known as gesellschaftliche gebilde, and at the same time as a legal institution (rechtliche institution). (warjiyati et al., 2022) the indonesian people need to intelligently and carefully pay attention to population issues as an integral part of the context of increasing national resilience to realize national aspirations. aspects of the intended position, include; a. quantity (amount, structure, composition, and growth rate). b. quality (education, health, income, and purchasing power). c. mobility (migration and distribution). d. population administration. then to try to increase national resilience in terms of population aspects, it is only natural and appropriate if there is a need for appropriate policies, strategies, and other efforts related to issues of quantity, quality, mobility, and administration of indonesia's population. but until now it turns out that population development in indonesia is still faced with various obstacles which in the end become problems during society. (lele, 2019; walker, 2016) furthermore, in terms of quality, literature data was obtained showing that the number and growth of indonesia's population can be said to be worrying. why is that?, because the threat of population explosion cannot be ignored. therefore, there are several reasons for concern that can be used as arguments to place the population problem as a development priority. (grabowski & self, 2020) indonesia's population has doubled in just 40 years, and the rate of population growth in the 20002010 period increased compared to the 1990-2000 period. even though during the 1970s it seemed that the growth rate of indonesia's population had already shown a downward trend. if so, then a large population with a high growth rate will have an impact on the environmental carrying capacity and carrying capacity that is getting worse. agricultural and plantation lands had to be converted by the bearers into housing and office areas, causing a further decline in agricultural productivity. this can also affect the structure and composition of the population, which will be more visible when analyzing age groups, gender, occupation, ethnicity, income, and so on. still related to the quality of the population, it turns out that indonesia is still struggling to overcome various problems related to population. these efforts are more oriented toward the education of the population which is relatively low, the level of health of the population is poor, the infant and maternal mortality rates are relatively high, and the increasing number of people who are dependent on illegal drugs. (meijerink et al., 2014, 2015) the population problems above are still a very serious concern of the government. even though the measurement of world volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 17 – 27 24 | sociology of law perspectives… development performance has shifted from development that focuses solely on economic growth performance to development that is oriented towards the quality of the population. real form; the current hdi has become a reference for achieving human development performance in 187 countries in the world, while in 2011 indonesia's hdi was ranked 124th. even though indonesia is the fourth most populous country in the world after china ranked 101st, india ranked 134th, and the united states ranked 4th. regarding the population phenomena above, it is not an exaggeration that from now on it must be carefully calculated for the next one to three decades so that the population is a quality indonesian human resource. for this purpose, it is necessary to have a gradual and sustainable population program by empowering local wisdom in the regions. local wisdom is an ancestral inheritance in the repertoire of life values that are integrated into the form of beliefs, culture, and customs. while in its development the community or population adapts to the environment by developing a pearl of wisdom in the form of knowledge or ideas, and equipment, combined with customary norms, cultural values, and activities to manage the environment to fulfill their daily needs for the realization of security and order. local wisdom can be understood as all forms of knowledge, belief, understanding, or insight as well as customs or ethics that guide human behavior in the life of an ecological community (human relations with the creator, human relations with fellow human beings, and human beings with their natural surroundings). states that all forms of local wisdom are internalized, practiced, taught, and passed down from generation to generation as well as forming patterns of human behavior towards fellow human beings. according to the analysis of the sociology of law, that wisdom means wisdom, and intelligence is something that is needed in interacting. while local means a place or in a place where something grows, exists, lives which may be different from other places, or exists somewhere, something of value which may apply locally or may also apply universally. in this regard, there is still a lot of local wisdom that continues to be a role model for people in indonesia, including in java (pranoto mongso, nyabuk gunung, considers a place sacred); in sulawesi (in the form of prohibitions, solicitations, sanctions) and in the inner baduy (great-grandfathers and pikukuh as well as the tenets of precepts). these local pearls of wisdom play a role in the management of natural resources and the environment. a clear picture of local wisdom in south sulawesi. in this area grows what is known as panngadereng (panngadakkang) built on a siri' foundation. while siri' is a legal principle (rechtsbeginsel) that underlies legal principles (rechtnormen). in the rechtnormen built the values of legal ethics (values of legal ethics) whose compliance value is based on legal awareness (legal awareness, in essence, is compliance with legal ethical values). it is further said that the bugismakassar people in the past realized that ade' (ada') was built to guard and maintain their siri' and their obedience will be ade' (ada'), in essence, is obedience and glorification of siri' which underlies the legal principles of ade' (ada'). the term legal ethical values (value of legal ethics) is volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 17 – 27 sociology of law perspectives… | 25 almost unknown in legal textbooks (rechtswetenschap). however, in the textbook on introductory law books (encyclopaedie der rechtswetenschap, inleiding tot de rechts wetenschap), the term rechtsbeginsel (legal principle) is used which is a normative term (legal term) for the value of legal ethics. (buana, 2021) how much and how rich indonesia is, in terms of local wisdom can be explored again to be used as a reference in maintaining security and public order. however, as time goes by. gradually it turns out that the community's wisdom of being friendly with nature is starting to be eroded by technology and economic disparities. leading to encroachment and resulting in an imbalance in nature and finally giving birth to the human disaster itself. therefore, it is time to return to pursuing the future of the nation and state by improving the quality of the population through empowering local wisdom. conclusion in essence, local wisdom that exists and is still alive and spread in various regions from sabang to merauke is a legacy from our ancestors that needs to be explored and preserved again, to be further empowered as a legal norm in regulating the order of life of the community or population, nation, and state. patriotic the success of our ancestors in maintaining the balance (security and order) of society in interacting through the application of local wisdom, sociologically, law needs to be revived because it synergizes with the values of the nation's philosophy which are summarized in the five precepts of pancasila, and are in no way contradictory to the state constitution. reference a, r. a., & mahfud, m.

(desy et al., 2017) electronic transactions are also buying and selling transactions that involve an agreement. however, the parties' e-commerce agreements are not like other agreements because electronic transactions differ from conventional transactions. in this context, electronic transactions are governed by law number 19 of 2016 concerning amendments to law number 11 of 2008 concerning information and electronic transactions, which regulates all electronic transactions and ensures that business actors do not violate the law in their day-to-day activities and transactions. (sulastri et al., 2021; widyanto, 2021) business activities are closely related to the type of corporate entity and the permits required to operate it. because legal entities can provide certainty in business activities, so that worries of breaking the law are minimized, the existence of a business legal entity will protect the company from all claims arising from the activities it performs, and keeping in mind that business legal entities have signs that must be obeyed. the company will satisfy the obligations and interests of numerous parties associated to the company, both inside and outside the company, by establishing a legal entity. however, the prerequisites for establishing a corporate legal entity must be met. this is in accordance with law number 40 of 2007 on limited liability companies, which states that it must be a capital partnership founded on an agreement, conduct business activities, and be formed through a legal process requiring government permission. (anjani & santoso, 2018) for a rule of law nation, as being declared in article 1 paragraph 3 of the republic of indonesia's 1945 constitution, indonesia unquestionably requires regulations as an indicator of certainty in the law. legal certainty represents one of the aims of the law and can be described as an attempt to attain justice. according to gustav radbruch, the form of legal certainty is when the regulation has been passed and stipulated, and the implementation must adhere to the norms and theory. when customers purchase goods or services from merchants that are not legal companies, it will be difficult to file complaints if the purchase has issues. including who will be sued or held accountable in the event of a consumer dispute. (moha et al., 2020) on that basis, the purpose of this essay is to examine how the law governs the status of merchants as legal entities and what legal protection can be provided for consumers in the field of e-commerce. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 71 – 82 unincorporate merchant: how does… | 73 method this type of research is a type of doctrinal legal research, namely legal research conducted by researching library materials using the object of writing study in the form of existing literature, both in the form of journals, books, relevant articles and laws and regulations that have a correlation with the discussion of the problem, so that this writing is also literature writing (library research). the following types and sources of legal resources were employed in the research: primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials. reading, studying, taking notes, evaluating literature, and looking through other media that is related to the research subject are the legal material gathering techniques used in this research. the analysis utilized in this study is analytical prescriptive, which means that it is based on the author's reasoning that is relevant to the data and then presents a problem-solving solution. analysis and discussion a. regulation of unincorporated business actors in e-commerce electronic commerce is one example of internet technology development, and itself is defined as a business activity that uses electronic technology to connect enterprises, consumers, and society through electronic transactions. (ramli et al., 2023) the legal framework for e-commerce in indonesia is clearly specified in trade law number 7 of 2014. prior to the law, e-commerce rules depended solely on law number 19 of 2016 amendments to law number 11 of 2008 concerning information and electronic transactions. the goal of trade law is to offer certainty and comprehension in the context of e-commerce, business actors, and consumers who conduct trading activities via electronic platforms. these restrictions, however, have not reached consumer protection, taxation, national borders and laws, electronic contracts and security guarantees, electronic payments, and dispute resolution. there are currently new rules regarding trade through the electronic system that are regulated in the minister of communication and informatics regulation number 5 of 2020 concerning electronic system operators for private scope, as well as regulations for permitting business actors through the electronic system that are regulated in the minister of trade regulation number 50 of 2020 concerning provisions for business licensing, advertising, guidance, and supervision of businesses. e-commerce has become much more sophisticated, consumers face additional dangers when transacting through electronic networks, such as data theft, online fraud, delivery of faulty or incorrect goods, and deceptive promotion of goods, many factors point to the conclusion that consumer rights in indonesia remain vulnerable to e-commerce activity. (arifin et al., 2021; prastyanti et al., 2022) volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 71 – 82 74 | unincorporate merchant: how does… the national consumer protection agency (bpkn) reported receiving 1,176 consumer complaints in 2020. the trading industry experienced the greatest increase in complaints via the computerized system, with 299 complaints. the government's policy for providing legal protection to parties involved in electronic transactions, (haganta, 2020) namely consumers and business actors, is currently listed in consumer protection law number 8 of 1999, but this law is still difficult to reach trading activities through electronic systems. consumers encounter challenges in e-commerce because of lax law enforcement, which leaves them completely unprotected by the law. any individual or business entity, whether in the form of a legal entity or not, that is established and domiciled or carries out activities within the jurisdiction of the republic of indonesia, either individually or jointly through agreements to carry out business activities in various economic fields, is defined as a business actor in article 1 point 3 of law number 8 of 1999 concerning consumer protection. the laws regulating business actor licensing are outlined in article 24 paragraph (1) of trade law no. 7 of 2014, which states that "business actors conducting trading business activities are required to have a permit in the trade sector granted by the minister." regarding business licensing for e-commerce activities, it is governed by article 15 paragraph (1) of government regulation number 80 of 2019, namely "businesses are required to have a business license in carrying out business activities in trading through electronic systems." furthermore, the minister of communication and informatics regulation no. 5 of 2020 concerning private electronic system operators emphasizes that registration is required for all electronic system operators. the regulation of the minister of trade number 50 of 2020 concerning provisions for business licensing, advertising, guidance, and supervision of business actors in trading through the electronic system states that "business actors are required to have a business permit in carrying out pmse business activities" specifically in article 3 paragraph (1). in this case, a business actor is any individual or business entity, whether a legal entity or not, that performs business activities in the field of trading through electronic systems and can be both domestic and foreign. in this article, business licensing takes the form of a trade business license obtained through an electronic system. article 1 paragraph (4) makes it clear that business actors dealing through the electronic system, including legal and nonlegal companies, must hold a trading business license. limited liability companies (pt), for example, are legal business entities. in law number 40 of 2007, concerning limited liability companies, a company is defined as a legal material that is a partnership of capital, established based on an agreement, conducting business activities with authorized capital that is entirely divided into shares and meets the requirements stipulated in the law and its implementing regulations. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 71 – 82 unincorporate merchant: how does… | 75 the limited liability company has its own assets, which are distinct from the assets of the limited liability company's shareholders. in the sense that if the limited liability company incurs a loss, the shareholders' liability is limited to the value of the shares they possess. in contrast to non-legal companies such as commanditaire venootschap (cv) or limited partnerships and firms, the assets of the founders are not distinct from the assets of the business entity. as a result, if the business entity that is not a legal entity suffers a loss, the owner of the business entity will be held liable. in addition, the difference between a business entity that is a legal entity and a business entity that is not a legal entity is: 1. legal entitiy (incorporated bussines) a) the legal subject is the business entity itself (acting as human), which categorized as legal subjects before the law; b) company assets are separate from the personal assets of its management or members. if the company goes bankrupt, only the company's assets will be confiscated and does not include the personal assets of its management or members; c) examples of legal entities are limited liability companies, cooperatives and foundations. 2. non-legal entity (unincorporated business) a) the legal subjects are the people who become its management. the company is not the legal entity itself and can’t act on its own behalf. b) the company's assets are united with the personal assets of its management or members. as a result, if the company goes bankrupt, the assets of the management and members are also confiscated. c) examples of business entities that are not legal entities are commanditaire venootschap (cv) or limited partnerships and firms. seeing the distinction between business entities that are legal entities (incorporated) and those that are not legal entities (unincorporated) above implies that forming a limited liability company (pt) for e-commerce activities is safer than other types of business companies. this is based on the provisions of article 3 paragraph 1 of law number 40 of 2007 concerning limited liability companies, which state that the shareholders of the company are not personally liable for the company's engagements and are not liable for the company's losses in excess of the shares owned. forming a corporate entity is an important first step in starting a business. business entities that are legal entities will safeguard the company from any claims arising from the company's operations. furthermore, with a legal corporation, business actors can safeguard volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 71 – 82 76 | unincorporate merchant: how does… the public from potentially unsafe items, give complaint services when orders received by consumers are in issue, comply with indonesian laws, and be taxed. (saefudin, 2014) having this element of legality indicates that the business actor has complied with the applicable legal rules, which indirectly shows disciplined action, and if the business actor is a legal entity, it is also a means of legal protection, because establishing a business entity requires a permit. this has the consequence of generating a sense of security and comfort for both business actors and business consumers. however, many bussiness actor such as merchants have yet to establish incorporated bussines or legal entity, one of the reasons being that they consider their operations to be small-scale and want to avoid paying taxes. because business actors in e-commerce include merchants who provide services using an electronic system, e-commerce business actors are included in the category that is required to register and hold a trading business license through the electronic system. registration of business actors for trading business licenses through this electronic system is a form of legal certainty that will clarify responsibilities for business actors, as well as a place to receive reports and complaints from the public as consumers. with the registration of this business license, (mucharomah, 2023) it can be a step to prevent problems such as online fraud because the public and consumers can identify business actors through website that have been provided by the government. business actors must get a business license and a trade business license using the electronic system (siupmse). the business license, on the other hand, does not apply to intermediary facility operators, which are business actors who supply electronic communication facilities other than telecommunications operators and only act as mediators in electronic communications between senders and recipients, if they are: 1. not a party that does not directly benefit from transactions; 2. 2. not directly involved in the contractual relationship of the parties conducting pmse. to obtain a business license to conduct trade electronically, business actors can apply to the minister of trade via the online single submission (oss) agency. the trading business license obtained through the electronic system is only valid if the following commitments are met: 1. electronic system operator registration certificate issued by the competent authority no later than 14 working days after the electronic system trading business license is issued; 2. website address and or application name; 3. customer complaint services in the form of a contact number and/or email address that can be contacted and responded to and displayed clearly on a page that is easy for consumers to read; volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 71 – 82 unincorporate merchant: how does… | 77 4. a consumer complaint service that contains contact information for consumer complaints from the directorate general of consumer protection and commerce. this registration can be done online and is free of charge. however, data from the ministry of communication and informatics noted that only 2698 business actors operating electronic systems were registered in the electronic system, while e-commerce business actors in indonesia, according to data from the indonesian central bureau of statistics, reached 26.6 million units. (putri & dwijayanthi, 2022; rongiyati, 2019) this means that the implementation of this electronic system registration has not been fully complied with by business actors; in fact, business actors who have registered will benefit from being recorded on the electronic system operators registration certificate so that they can be clearly identified on the service page of the ministry of communication and informatics and receive protection as well as legal certainty for parties involved in electronic commerce. with many e-commerce business actors in indonesia not registering themselves with business licenses, it is difficult for the government to be able to control business through the electronic system. this trading business license through the electronic system, abbreviated as siupmse, is very essential; if a merchant is not in possession of it, he or she will be subject to administrative sanctions in the form of written warnings, which can be given three times with a grace period of up to 14 (fourteen) calendar days between each warning, and if you still do not have a trade business license through the electronic system within this period, you will be subject to administrative sanctions in the form of fines. one of the causes for the low number of e-commerce business actors enrolling for business licenses in indonesia is a lack of socialization regarding the necessity to register and hold business licenses for e-commerce business actors, both legal and non-legal businesses. furthermore, the government's explanation of the aim and purpose of these regulations is not widely understood, therefore many business players are unaware of the requirements requiring trading business licenses through the electronic system. b. consumer legal protection against unincorporated merchant in e-commerce the rapid development of the internet has influenced the growth of e-commerce or electronic business. the emergence of e-commerce in indonesia might spoil consumers because they can buy without leaving their homes and have access to a diverse range of goods and services. this is also a business opportunity that can benefit entrepreneurs. however, many business players continue to disregard the quality of the goods or services they provide, resulting in losses for the consumers themselves. business actors must obtain an e-commerce business license, which is governed by government regulation number 80 of 2019 concerning trade through electronic systems and minister of communication and informatics regulation number 5 of 2020 concerning volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 71 – 82 78 | unincorporate merchant: how does… private electronic system operators. if you do not register, you will receive a letter of warning and may be blocked by the ministry of communication and informatics, as reported by detik.com. the ministry of communication and informatics has sent a letter of warning to paypal, steam, epic games, and yahoo to register as pse scope private as soon as possible. however, paypal cs never registers until the deadline of five working days, and the ministry imposes a blocking sanction. since being prohibited for the first time, indonesian netizens immediately exploded and the ministry of communication and informatics' blocking of pse has been widely discussed. the ministry has finally unblocked paypal, but only for the time being. the financial transaction service is available for five days till paypal registers. paypal claimed in its statement that it is dedicated to following the guidelines and has been registered as a private scope pse. they apologized to users who had been inconvenienced by the blocking issue. the lack of clear sanctions for e-commerce business actors who do not register, as well as the mechanism and standardization for e-commerce businesses that are required to do so, is currently causing the problem of non-compliance by e-commerce business actors regarding the registration of electronic system operators. there are still numerous business actors who are not legal businesses and cause a variety of difficulties, such as online fraud and the leakage of consumer personal data. as stated in the research's background, there are numerous merchants both inside and outside the country who are not legal entities but are nevertheless actively supplying various kinds of goods and or services that can cause problems. the ministry of trade said that between january and june 2021, 4,855 consumers filed complaints, primarily in the electronics sector, while statistics from kominfo revealed 115,756 occurrences of fraud from e-commerce and online transactions on social media through september 2021. in the indonesian civil code, e-commerce transactions are categorized as sale and buy agreements, therefore e-commerce transactions can also give rise to an achievement or an obligation for a party to execute things that are in an agreement. default occurs when one party fails to carry out these accomplishments or commitments. some examples of ecommerce defaults committed by a business actor are as follows: 1. failure to do what he is committed to do, which is a circumstance in which the seller fails to meet the commitment to deliver an item offered to the buyer as well as the obligation to bear hidden deficiencies; 2. 2. carry out what was promised but not according to the agreed specifications, where the business actor provides services or is responsible for obligations but does not comply with what was promised or promoted at the beginning before the transaction; volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 71 – 82 unincorporate merchant: how does… | 79 3. carry out what was promised but it was late; if the order arrived late but could be used, it is labeled as a late achievement; if it could not be used, it is defined as not carrying out what was promised; 4. when a business actor does something that, according to the agreement, cannot be done, such as when the business actor is required not to disclose information and personal data about the buyer to the general public but does so, the action is described as a default. transactions through electronic means are regulated in law number 19 of 2016 on amendments to law number 11 of 2008 concerning information and electronic transactions. article 28 paragraph (1), which reads: "every person intentionally and without right spreads false and misleading news that results in consumer losses in electronic transactions," with a criminal threat in article 45a paragraph (1), namely a maximum criminal prison of six (six) years or a maximum fine of idr 1,000,000,000 (one billion rupiah). in addition to law number 19 of 2016, government actions to provide legal protection for the public are also regulated in law number 8 of 1999 concerning consumer protection, law number 7 of 2016 2014 concerning trade and government regulation number 80 of 2019 concerning trade through electronic systems. the concept of accountability in e-commerce transactions also applies to corporate actors in law number 8 of 1999 concerning consumer protection, which is governed in articles 19 to 28. business actors must be held accountable for compensating consumers for losses incurred as a result of consuming goods and/or services traded, including compensation in the form of replacement goods or refunds. rules regarding electronic trading are also contained in law number 7 of 2014 concerning trading. if the business actor violates the regulations in article 65, paragraph (1), which reads: "every business actor who trades goods and/or services using an electronic system must provide complete and correct data and/or information," and also in paragraph (2), which reads: "every business actor is prohibited from trading goods and/or services using an electronic system that is inconsistent with the data or information as referred to in paragraph (1)." for data and/or information that must be provided, at least include: 1. identity and legality of business actors as producers or distribution business actors; 2. the technical requirements of the goods offered; 3. technical requirements or qualifications for services offered; 4. prices and methods of payment for goods and/or services; and 5. how to deliver the goods. if a merchant that trades goods on an electronic system fails to give complete and clear information, the business actor may face administrative sanctions in the form of license volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 71 – 82 80 | unincorporate merchant: how does… revocation under article 65 paragraph (6) of law number 7 of 2014 concerning trade. this policy is critical for ensuring legal clarity in the operation of an e-commerce business for both business actors and customers. so that no merchant may conduct business while ignoring consumer protection. the objective of regulating consumer protection laws is to increase consumer dignity and awareness, as well as to encourage a sense of responsibility for business actors when carrying out their business activities, because basically every citizen has the right to legal protection, one of which is consumer protection, and consumer rights are liability for manufacturers. consumer protection law no. 8 of 1999. the consumer protection act defines consumer protection as "all efforts that ensure legal certainty in order to provide protection to consumers." consumer protection is carried out to ensure that individuals do not purchase or use goods or services that may risk their safety, and so on. article 19 of law no. 8 of 1999 concerning consumer protection specifies the obligation of business actors who are not legal organizations if a default is identified. default is governed by book iii article 1234-1252 of the civil code, and it is defined as the failure to meet an achievement or obligation specified by the parties in an agreement. default compensation is compensation levied to debtors who fail to fulfill the terms of an agreement reached between creditors and debtors. article 1249 of the civil code specifies how to pay damages for default, with the restitution taking the form of a monetary payment. and. according to article 1365 of the indonesian civil code, any conduct that violates the law and causes harm to another person obligates the person who caused the loss due to his error to compensate for the loss. consumer issues in e-commerce become roadblocks to the introduction of electronic technologies in indonesia. consumers are not entirely protected by law due to societal issues such as online fraud, personal data leaks, and insufficient law enforcement in these circumstances. (yadi et al., 2022) to provide legal protection for the public, there are two legal protection principles: preventive legal protection, which is consumer protection for the public who is given the opportunity to submit their opinion before a government decision becomes final; and repressive legal protection, which is protection aimed at resolving disputes. (sommaliagustina, 2016) as an effort to prevent this, business actors should register their business entities so that they become legal entities or incorporated merchants, so that if problems arise, consumers can make complaints and be accounted for. unlike the platform model so far, incorporated merchants will be fairer to consumers and protect them. for repressive legal protection, the indonesian government, through the ministry of trade and the ministry of communication and information, must require e-commerce business actors to register. this registration aims to make it easier for the government to record and identify e-commerce volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 71 – 82 unincorporate merchant: how does… | 81 actors that are regulated in government regulation number 80 of 2019 concerning trade through electronic systems and minister of communication and informatics regulation number 5 of 2020 concerning private electronic system operators. it is mandatory to register every electronic system operator. conclusion the regulatory provisions for e-commerce merchants who are required to be legal entities are not specifically established in the applicable laws and regulations. this results in a lack of legal certainty for customers and a loss of potential state revenue through taxes. concerning those relevant to consumer legal protection from e-commerce unincorporated businesses, it has essentially been regulated in numerous rules, but these arrangements are not specified in nature, so they continue to generate difficulties and confusion in their interpretation and implementation. based on this situation, the government should enact special rules for e-commerce trading, requiring them to have legal entities in order for merchants and consumers to have legal certainty and protection. in its development, the job creation law has regulated all sorts of legal business entities, notably individual corporations and sole proprietorships. this kind of business entity has the potential to be an alternative for msme e-commerce businesses to continue to run their businesses professionally and responsibly. regulations requiring the legal incorporation of ecommerce will also provide the state with potential revenue through a taxation mechanism. reference anjani, m. r., & santoso, b.

anti corruption; prevention of corruption; introduction character is the nature that is brought by each individual, which each person has their own character. understanding more characters lead to the moral and personality of a person, of course, which is positive. the character of an individual is formed since he was small due to genetic and environmental influences. the process of character formation, whether consciously or unconsciously, will affect the way the individual views himself and his environment and will be reflected in his or her daily behavior. universities as institutions of higher education are one of the most important resources.1 the character is the values of human behavior related to god almighty, self, fellow human, environment, and nationality embodied in thoughts, attitudes, feelings, words, and deeds based on religious norms, law, etiquette, culture, and customs. so for students, it is very important to get character education, it aims to strengthen morals and praiseworthy nature for learners (in this case students). because intelligence in the field of education alone is not enough without the provision of moral and strong character. so 1fidyani fitri, https://fidyanifitri.wordpress.com/2012/07/02/pentingnya-pendidikan-karakter-dikalanganmahasiswa/ (diakses tanggal 7 juli 2017). https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ https://fidyanifitri.wordpress.com/2012/07/02/pentingnya-pendidikan-karakter-dikalangan-mahasiswa/ https://fidyanifitri.wordpress.com/2012/07/02/pentingnya-pendidikan-karakter-dikalangan-mahasiswa/ |115 volume 1, issue 2, july 2018 : 114 128 anti corruption attitude of students as a corruption measure of criminal measures that when the student plunge in the community there will be no misuse of knowledge learned during school. as we see today, where smart people abuse their cleverness to commit criminal acts such as corruption or terrorism. the cleverness in question is a planned undertaking undertaken by an educated actor because of his expertise, his professionalism in a particular field, or because of his authority and position. for example, corruption, because the limits of the perpetrators who can be charged with corruption act is limited to the state civil apparatus, state organizers, or any party that utilizes state finances. potential perpetrators referred only to those who have certain educational qualifications, in other words, the perpetrators of corruption are people who are educated in the sense narrow.2 if only they had a strong character and manners, surely it would not have happened. so for reasons of kindness, it is necessary to emphasize the importance of character education for students. therefore we must transform our character into a successful character. the character of success is to work hard to achieve something we want, never complain about any risks we face. because for the next few years is needed are people who have good character. academically, character education is interpreted as value education, character education, moral education, character education, or moral education whose purpose is to develop the ability of learners to give good decisions, to maintain goodness, and to realize the good in everyday life with all the heart. character education as an educational concept that inculcates manners that involves aspects of knowledge (cognitive), feeling (feeling), and action (action) is a solution to improve the character and morals of the nation. practically, character education is a system of planting good values to the citizens of the school or campus which includes the components of knowledge, awareness or willingness, and actions to implement those values, whether in dealing with god almighty, fellow human beings, the environment, as well as the nation and nation to become a whole human being.3 the desire to be a democratic nation, free from corruption, collusion and nepotism (kkn), respect and obey the law are some of the nation's desired character in the life of society, nation and state. however, the fact that there is exactly the opposite phenomenon. horizontal and vertical conflicts characterized by violence and unrest are ubiquitous, accompanied by a spiral of regionalism and primordialism that can threaten the institution of the nation; the practice of corruption, collusion and nepotism has not 2 yusrianto kadir (disertasi), 2016. hakekat penerapan pendidikan anti korupsi di perguruan tinggi sebagai upaya pencegahan tindak pidana korupsi. program doktor ilmu hukum, universitas muslim indonesia makassar. 3 yusfita kumala dewi, math didactic: jurnal pendidikan matematika vol. 1, no. 2, mei agustus 2015 © stkip pgri banjarmasin, lihat juga aswari, a., & perdana, a. h.

attitude of students as a corruption measure of criminal measures subsided even further; the demanding democratic democracy turns into a democracy that goes too far and leads to anarchism; social and political politeness fades on the various levels of life of society, nation, and state; the intelligence of the nation's life mandated by the founders of the state increasingly invisible, all of which show the unturned noble values of the nation.4 among the students and students of moral decadence is no less apprehensive. the behavior of ethical, moral and legal bumping from mild to severe still often shown by students and students. the habit of cheating when the test or test is still done. the desire to pass easily and effortlessly during a national exam causes them to seek answers in an unethical way. they are looking for leaked answers from various sources that are not clear. especially if the desire to pass easily is institutional because it is engineered or conditioned by the leadership of educational institutions systemically. in those who do not pass, there are those who take acts of recklessness with self-harm or even suicide. unethical behavior is also shown by students. plagiarism or plagiarism of scientific work among students is also still massive. there is even done by doctoral program students. all this shows the fragility of characters among students and students.5 another thing that is symptomatic among students and students in the form of delinquency. some of them are a brawl between students and students. in some big cities, student brawls become a tradition and form a fixed pattern, so that among them form a mortal enemy. tawuran also often done by the students as done by a group of students at certain universities in makassar. another form of delinquency by students and students is to drink alcohol, promiscuity, and drug abuse that can lead to depression and even hiv / aids. another phenomenon that tarnished the image of students is and educational institutions are rampant gang learners and motor aisles their behavior often leads to even bullying that disturbs society and even criminal acts such as logging, torture, even murder. all the negative behaviors among students and students mentioned above, clearly indicate the fragility of the character is quite severe one of which is caused by the not optimal character development in educational institutions in addition to environmental conditions that do not support.6 strengthening the character became one of the priority programs of president joko widodo (jokowi) and vice president jusuf kalla. in nawa, ideals mentioned that the government will do the character revolution of the nation. the ministry of education and culture implements the strengthening of the nation's successor character through the movement of strengthening character education (ppk) which was launched in 2016. in accordance with president joko widodo's direction, character education at

corruption attitude of students as a corruption measure of criminal measures education level gets a bigger portion than education which teaches knowledge. for elementary school by 70 percent, while for junior high school by 60 percent.7 the ministry of education and culture (kemendikbud) continually strives to mourn the jaws through government priority programs in education and culture. during the two years of the working cabinet, kemendikbud increased the human development index (hdi) by 0.75 points from 68.8 in 2014 to 69.55 in 2015, with the education index rising by 0.82 points from 60.18 to 61.00 in 2015. the increase in hdi is due to an increase in the average length of schooling population aged 25+ from 7.73 years to 7.83 years in 2015 and an increase in average school life expectancy increased from 12.39 years to 12.55 years in 2015.8 human development index above unfortunately only describes the output that does not lead to the development of the nation's character as a whole. targets in the first and higher levels of higher education do not reflect continuity efforts in higher education, so the hdi target of secondary education does not guarantee hdi at higher education levels. so the role of college is only more directed to the development of knowledge competence (cognitive) only. though college graduates are expected to immediately adjust to the work environment, which of course not only rely on knowledge competence only but more includes other supporting competencies. although education is only one of the variables that influence the formation of anti-corruption character, so it is expected to prevent the corrupt behavior, but education is a long-term investment in the whole human development index. university graduates who at least fill positions/jobs as members of dpr and dprd, heads of institutions / ministries, ambassadors, commissioners, governors, mayors / regents and deputies, echelon i / ii / iii, judges, prosecutors, police, lawyers, private, corporations, did not escape corrupt behavior, as the data below:

echelon i / ii / iii in government institutions. even if the corruptive behavior has many variables that effect, but the provision of cognitive, affective, and psychomotor competence is established through education that is quite influential in the prevention of corruption behavior.9 various efforts have been made to improve access and quality of education services including strengthening the role of vocational education as a strategic step of increasing the productivity and competitiveness of the nation and strengthening the role of culture in national education as an effort to revolutionize the nation's character.10 implementation of strengthening character education (kdp) will become the main motor of government policy in education and culture. we want to build indonesian people who have character, virtuous, and noble. our nation also wants to have a superior and noble civilization. such a civilization can be achieved if our society is also a good society. and an ideal society like this we can realize 9 yusrianto kadir, 2016, disertasi: hakekat penerapan pendidikan anti korupsi di perguruan tinggi sebagai upaya pencegahan tindak pidana korupsi. program doktor ilmu

indonesia is a morally good human, moral human, and ethical good, and humans who speak and behave well as well. there are five main character values sourced from pancasila which is actually also the role of universities in developing anti-corruption attitudes in the student environment, which became the priority of developing the kdp movement; namely religious, nationalism, integrity, independence, and mutual cooperation. each value does not stand and develop independently but interacts with each other, develops dynamically, and forms a personal whole.11 for that, we need to find the best way to build and develop human character and nation of indonesia in order to have good character, superior and noble. the right endeavor for that is through education because education has an important and central role in the development of human potential, including mental potential. through education is expected to happen a transformation that can build positive character, and change the character of the bad to be good. ki hajar dewantara explicitly states that education is an effort to promote the growth of character (inner strength, character), mind (intellect), and the body of children.12 so clearly, education is the main vehicle for cultivating good character. the problems identified in this paper are, first; how should the formation of characters that support the application of anti-corruption attitudes, and secondly; how the internalization process of the application of anti-corruption attitudes among students. efforts to prevent the culture of corruption in the community first can be done by preventing the development of mental corruption in indonesian children through education. the spirit of anti-corruption that should be a study is the planting of thought patterns, attitudes, and anti-corruption behavior through schools because school is a process of culture. the formal education sector in indonesia can play a role in meeting corruption prevention. preventive measures (prevention) can indirectly through two approaches (approach), first: make learners become targets, and second: use the empowerment of learners to suppress the environment in order not permissive to corruption. to participate in the anti-corruption and eradication movement, there are two models that educational institutions can undertake in developing an integrative-inclusive anti-corruption education curriculum for education. first, the educational process must foster social-normative concerns, build objective reasoning, and develop a universal perspective on the individual. second, education should lead to strategic seeding, the individual's consistent and robust personal qualities in social engagement. the

: 114 128 anti corruption attitude of students as a corruption measure of criminal measures integrative-inclusive model of anti-corruption education in applicative education is more domiciled as an approach to contextual-based learning. character education is based on six ethical values, that everyone can agree on values that do not contain political, religious or cultural biases. some of these things can be explained and to be easily understood about the six pillars of character education13, as follows: 1. trustworthiness honest, do not cheat, plagiarize or steal, be reliable, do what you say you will do, have the courage to do the right thing and build a good reputation, obedient. 2. respect be tolerant of difference, use courtesy, not a bad language, consider other people's feelings, do not threaten, beat or hurt others, reconcile with anger, humiliation, and disagreement. 3. responsibility (responsibility) always do your best, use self-control, discipline, think before acting, consider the consequences, be responsible for the choices already taken. 4. fairness (justice) play by the rules, take as necessary and share, openminded, listening to others, do not take profit from others, carelessly. 5. caring (caring) be loving and show you care, gratitude, forgive others, helping people in need. 6. citizenship make schools and communities better, work together, involve themselves in community affairs, be good neighbors, obey laws and rules, respect authority, protect the environment. method the domain of this article is in the realm of legal science on the nonpenal side or prevention with the type of approach used is the normative approach. this approach examines the matters using the positivist concept of legislation by integrating the concept of prevention of corruption with the integration of character education in education which states that the law is identical with written norms, but further to measure the workings of the law should be supported by a non-legal approach, which in this case is the internalization of moral values and propriety in the educational environment. data were obtained through primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials. 13 nanda ayu setiawati, pendidikan karakter sebagai pilar pembentukan karakter bangsa, prosiding seminar nasional tahunan fakultas ilmu sosial universitas

measure of criminal measures analysis and discussion character formation as a form of anti corruption attitude according to the ministry of national education, the character is the character, character, morality, or personality formed from the internalization of virtues that are believed and used as the basis for the worldview, thinking, attitude and action. character terminology contains at least two things: values (values) and personality. as a reflection of the whole personality, the character bases itself on the values of society. the underlying values of individual thought and behavior are embedded in a process of internalizing values that are in accordance with the culture adopted by society. this internalization process then forms the character of an individual.14 mounier proposes two ways of interpretation by looking at characters as two things, first, as a set of conditions that are given away or simply exist, which are more or less forced within us. such a character is regarded as something that has existed from the past (given). second, the character is understood as the level of power through which an individual is able to master the condition. such a character is referred to as the desired process (willed)15. thus, it can be concluded that the character is a dynamic condition of the anthropological structure of a distinct and distinct human being as a result of the integration of heart, mind, body, taste, and intention as a congenital condition accompanied by an attempt to self-perfection. character education can be interpreted as a valuable education, moral education, moral education, character education, which aims to develop the ability of learners to give good decisions bad, maintain what is good, and realize the goodness in daily life with a vengeance. the formation and development of character as an educational endeavor is expected to have a positive impact both for individuals as well as for their environment. character education is an attempt to educate children to make wise decisions and practice them in everyday life,16 so they can make a positive contribution to their environment.17 character education should involve not just aspects of good knowledge (moral knowing), but also feel good or loving good (moral feeling), and good behavior (moral action). character education emphasizes the habit or habit that is constantly practiced and practiced. thus, it can be concluded that character education is an effort to form and 14 diptasari wibawanti, persepsi dan perilaku mahasiswa dalam pendidikan karakter

psychomotor (physical) by knowing, feeling and executing good behavior (knowing the good, loving the good , an acting the good) to become a habit or habit that is continuously practiced that is personal and social as a joint responsibility of government, society, schools, and parents. character education is expected to result in more positive behavioral changes. behavior has a subjective meaning for every culprit, and weber states that an action is a human behavior that has a subjective meaning to the perpetrators. understanding the subjective meaning of an action means empathy, that is, how to place oneself in the frame of thinking of others acting, and situations and objectives seen according to the perspective. character education is a conscious effort that considers goals and ways to achieve them. by weber, this is referred to as an instrumental rational action, which includes consideration and conscious choice relating to the purpose and the tools used to achieve it. the image of a work culture based on strong character (including trustworthiness and exemplary) and intelligent, is stated as follows:18 no. characteristics defenitions indicator 1. commitment

there are several things to consider in building the ideology of anti-corruption education.19 first, place education as a means of character building. german pedagogue fw foerster20 say that the main essence of education is character formation. in foerster's view, there are four basic characteristics in character education, namely the order of the interior in which every action is measured by the hierarchy of values, the coherence that gives courage, is steadfast in principle, not easily vacillated in new situations or fear of risk, giving autonomy in internalizing rules outside becomes personal value, and builds firmness and loyalty in the fight for truth and justice. the maturity of the four basic values of the foerster will build the form of a person in all his actions. with the four basic values that will be born a strong person and ready to hit the inequality that hit the community, especially corruption. second, create a curriculum that always condemns corruption as a social crime. in every subject matter, an educator should not only explain the textual meaning of scientific theory but also be able to contextualize the phenomenon of social inequality that occurs in society. with the integration of theory and reality, the educational curriculum, in addition to not dull students, is also able to lead them to a vast and powerful knowledge hollow. they are not only rich with knowledge, but also life experiences of stock in the future. third, no real action in eradicating corruption. this concrete action can be in the form of cooperation with the judiciary that drags the corruptors or non-governmental organizations concerned with corruption eradication policies. with this concrete action, students or students will see the real price of corruption in indonesia and explain to them 19 http://id.beritasatu.com/home/korupsi-dan-pendidikan-karakter/26509 diakses tanggal 10 juli 2017, pukul 12:40 wita. 20

level. that way, the students will be "stranded" to rise up to restore the morality of education and will eventually be dedicated positively to the nation's survival. fourth, build a new flow cross-sectoral education. here we need to establish massive movements in various central and local educational institutions in opposing the actions of the corrupt. the new wave will always be covered by the media and will gradually become the mainstream of future humanitarian thinking. by becoming a new mainstream then anticorruption education is not just a discourse, but a movement that is very important for the sake of the future of the nation.21 anti-corruption education in the form of special courses seems to make corruption as knowledge, or at least the study materials of lecturers and students. the difference is, the expectation is that knowledge is not to be applied, but avoided. who knows the realization of a collective determination to not go along with corruption when graduating later, including the corruption that actually happens in college itself. cleaning up the house and self is much more important than examining the taxonomy of corruption in college.22 21

(von jouanne & brekken, 2019) coastal and marine resources that are renewable such as fisheries resources (captured fisheries, cultivation), mangroves, wave energy, tides, wind, and ocean thermal energy conversion (otec) require good management to be used optimally. the smoked skipjack/cakalang fufu is a favorite dish in manado and north sulawesi in general, and it is processed into popular skipjack tuna dishes that are typical to north sulawesi. the smoked skipjack fish/cakalang fufu management business is a business that has https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ mailto:tellysumbu@unsrat.ac.id http://dx.doi.org/10.56087/substantivejustice.v6i1.224 volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 28 – 41 existence of consumer protection… | 29 a very important and strategic position, potential, and role in realizing national development goals in general and the objectives of economic development in particular. these small businesses are generally the ones that are owned and managed independently by someone, are not bound, and do not dominate the market. (liandi & andryawan, 2022; von jouanne & brekken, 2019) skipjack tuna (katsuwonus pelamis) is fishery commodity from bay waters in indonesia. (ali et al., 2016) this particular type of fish has become the target of fishermen because it is considered profitable. (liandi & andryawan, 2022) the skipjack tuna is then sold fresh, frozen, canned, dried, or even smoked. the impact that arose due to the dynamic movement of small businesses was very large because it created jobs where there were innovations in the field of business and creativity in the processing of the smoked skipjack fish/cakalang fufu. however, the question is that along with the processing of the skipjack fish that can create jobs, is this product feasible to be categorized as a safe food product that is not harmful to health and is safe for consumption by consumers? (abel et al., 2022; chintagari et al., 2018; wallace et al., 2018) the focus point of the smoked skipjack fish/cakalang fufu fish as a safe product is the process of catching, preparing, storing, and marketing raw skipjack fish, as well as the processing and management of the smoked skipjack fish/cakalang fufu. thus, in order to assess the feasibility of skipjack fish products as safe food products that are not dangerous to consume, of course, the assessment must go through the process of catching, storing, and through to reaching the marketing raw skipjack fish. safe food products in the smoked skipjack fish/cakalang fufu production business through the process of catching, storing, and though to reaching marketing of raw skipjack fish become a very important focus of attention in interpreting law number 8 of 1999 concerning consumer protection. (hasan, 2014; konsumen & maulidia, 2013; purnamasari et al., 2019) this is so that producers are required to be careful before releasing their products. this situation certainly requires quality control of the management business of skipjack fish as a safe food product, given that the management of skipjack fish is at the maximal without there being a careful examination of aspects of consumer security and safety before the product is released into the market. the reality of the ‘product out’ paradigm is that from the process of catching, storing, and until reaching the marketing of raw skipjack fish before arriving at the processing of smoked skipjack fish/cakalang fufu, it is without adequate quality control, and the ‘market in’ paradigm is to examine tuna fish management carefully for its safety aspects before the product is released into the market. method this type of research is a qualitative type with a socio-legal approach and then analyzed descriptively qualitatively by describing, explaining, and describing the various factors revealed through a juridical approach. the juridical approach is intended as an effort to bring the problem volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 28 – 41 30 | existence of consumer protection… closer to the normative of law. the doctrinal legal approach is the perspective used, namely by studying legal objectives, values of justice, the validity of legal rules, legal concepts, and legal norms. the sociological approach is carried out through efforts to identify and conceptualize law as a real and functional institution in the pattern of community life. then referring to the juridical sociological approach, this research uses layered research by tracing the management of skipjack food products. analysis and discussion the handling aspects when fish are caught are very important things to consider, especially in fisheries because it involves how to get good quality fish. good quality products that can be maintained consistently will increase consumer confidence. (abiala et al., 2020) the quality aspect is one aspect that is very important in advancing the world of indonesian fisheries in international markets. (adam, 2018) added that in the management of fish quality since the fish was caught up to the marketing it was very important to be understood by the related actors both fishermen, collectors, and marketing. fisheries are all activities related to the management and utilization of fish resources and the environment ranging from pre-production, production, and processing to marketing carried out in a fisheries business system. fish are all types of organisms that all or part of their life cycle is in the aquatic environment. a good way of handling fish is a way of handling fish caught on board a ship including dismantling from the ship to meet the requirements for quality and safety assurance of fishery products, which are carried out quickly, carefully, hygienically and applying cold chain handling methods. the method of catching is carried out by fishermen who are indonesian citizens, both individuals and their families whose livelihoods depend on fishing. the survey results that the researcher can explain are as follows: 1. catching using sailboats (2.5%), outboard motorboats (35%), and large motorboats (62.5%). the fishing gear used by fishermen is fishing rods (2.5%), nets (62.5%), and fishing lines (35%). fishermen in manado and the surrounding do not use chemicals (fish bombs) in the process of catching fish. • the fishing community in the fishing business still uses traditional equipment. this can be seen from the fleet that is used on average which is of small size. the fishing gear used is also only nets and fishing rods. 2. the main types of fish caught are skipjack fish. other types of fish are as follows: tuna, mackerel (tude), flying fish (malalugis), and grouper (goropa). 3. the number of fish obtained varies between fishermen based on the facilities used and also the seasonal factor. the fish obtained range from 35kg/day to 6000kg/day. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 28 – 41 existence of consumer protection… | 31 • the dominant type of fish caught with a net or fishing rod is the skipjack tuna or katsuwonus pelamis. the skipjack fish are found in almost all indonesian waters, especially in the eastern part of indonesia. 4. the catch is stored in a cooler box, a bucket with ice, or a basket. to maintain its quality, in addition to using ice to keep the temperature cool, salt is also used. after arriving on land, fish are immediately sold out. • the freshness of the fish that has just died is the maximum level of freshness, meaning that the freshness of the fish cannot be increased but can only be sustained through the application of good and right post-capture handling principles. • the process of handling fish with cooling methods is the most effective and widely used method. the most effective cooling medium for fish freshness is ice because it does not cause any physical changes in fish. 5. fishermen sell fish to retailers or directly to consumers. sale conditions are frozen or not. sale times vary from 1 hour to 18 hours. this affects the quality of the fish. in connection with the quality of fish, of course, it must be in accordance with the fishery product quality and security assurance system which is a prevention and control effort that must be considered and carried out from pre-production to distribution to produce quality fisheries that are safe for human health. fishery products are fish that are handled, processed, and/or used as final products in the form of fresh fish, frozen fish, and other processed products. the fishery product quality and security assurance system include activities such as: 1. development and application of requirements or standards of raw materials. raw materials are fish including those that come from the catch and cultivation which can be used as a production factor in the processing of fishery products. 2. development and application of hygienic requirements or standards, handling techniques, and processing techniques. fish processing is a series of activities and/or treatments of raw fish materials to be the final product for human consumption. 3. development and application of product quality requirements or standards. 4. development and application of requirements or standards of facilities and infrastructure. 5. development and application of requirements or standard testing methods. 6. quality control; quality control is all activities that include inspection, verification, audit, and sampling in order to provide satisfactory results. 7. quality supervision is all activities that include guidance, facilitation, monitoring, and evaluation of the quality and safety of the fishery products. 8. certification is a series of certificate issuance activities for products, facilities and infrastructure, processes and personnel as well as the quality system. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 28 – 41 32 | existence of consumer protection… standard operational processing of fishery products catching fish cultivation distribution and marketing as for the standard operating procedure for processing skipjack fish which are good safe food products, researchers depart from law number 18 of 2012, article 68 paragraph (1) which is the explanation states: 1. what is meant by “food chain” is the sequence of stages and operations in the production, processing, distribution, storage, and handling of food and its raw materials ranging from production to consumption, including materials related to food so that the food is ready for consumption. 2. what is meant by “in an integrated manner” is the implementation of food safety must be carried out in an integrated and synergistic manner by all stakeholders in each food chain. then, departing from the food chain mentioned above, the researcher tries to compile a standard operating procedure for processing the skipjack fish product which is described as follows: standard operating procedure for processing skipjack fishery products according to the researcher, the element of fish caught should be included as a main part of the standard operating procedure for processing skipjack fish products. this is intended because food security is inseparable from good fishing methods. if fishermen obey the rules in fishing, of course, the fish catch contains food security. in connection with fishing, the researcher has explained in the previous section, hereinafter relating to fish cultivators, are indonesian citizens, both individuals and their families whose livelihoods are raising, breeding, and/or maintaining fish and other aquatic biological resources and harvesting the results in a controlled environment. there are good ways to cultivate fish, among them is a method of cultivation including how to maintain and/or raise fish and harvest them that show the safety aspects of fishery products, among others: (george dieter nakmofa, 2014; m. r siombo, 2007; marhaeni ria siombo, 2010, 2011) 1. preventing land use where the environment has the potential to threaten the security of fishery products; volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 28 – 41 existence of consumer protection… | 33 2. controlling biological contamination, pests, and fish diseases that threaten the security of fishery products; and 3. minimizing the already minimum chemical residues as a result of the use of fish drugs, growth-promoting ingredients, and ineffective fish medicines. 4. harvesting equipment uses materials that do not physically damage, are not made from toxic and dangerous materials, have the potential to contaminate the product, are not easily corrosive, and are easy to clean; and 5. the manner of harvest is done quickly and carefully, with hygienic, and apply cold chain handling methods. furthermore, the matter of distribution and marketing, of course, cannot be separated from food trade, that is every activity or series of activities in the context of selling and/or purchasing food, which include offers to sell food transferred by obtaining compensation. in connection with the statement above, article 71 paragraph (1) of act number 18 of 2012, states that: every person involved in the food chain is obliged to control the risk of harm to food, whether it comes from ingredients, equipment, production facilities, or from individuals so that food safety is guaranteed. subsequently, paragraph (2) states that: every person who organizes activities or process of production, storage, transportation, and/or distribution of food must: meet sanitation requirements; and guarantee food safety and/or human safety. (zimmermann, 2021) the government guarantees the realization of the implementation of food safety in each food chain in an integrated manner. the government establishes food safety norms, standards, procedures, and criteria. farmers, fishermen, fish cultivators, and food business actors must implement food safety norms, standards, procedures, and criteria. the application of food safety norms, standards, procedures, and criteria is carried out in stages based on the type of food and food business scale, and the government must develop and supervise the implementation of food safety norms, standards, procedures, and criteria. (njatrijani, 2021; widiyaningsih, 2018) food safety is held to keep food safe, hygienic, good quality, nutritious, and not against the religion, beliefs, and culture of the community. food safety is intended to prevent the possibility of biological, chemical, and other contaminants that can interfere with, harm, and endanger human health. (arif, 2018) food safety is carried out through: 1. food sanitation; 2. regulation of food additives; 3. regulation of genetically engineered food products; 4. regulation of food irradiation; 5. the standard setting of food packaging; 6. guaranteeing food safety and food quality; and volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 28 – 41 34 | existence of consumer protection… 7. guaranteeing halal products for those that are required. food sanitation is done so that food is safe for consumption, carried out in the activities or process of production, storage, transportation, and/or distribution of food., it must meet the requirements of food safety standards. (haerani & nurcahyo, 2019) the process of observation rather than the implementation of all organizational activities to ensure that all work is being carried out goes according to a predetermined plan. supervision is a process that determines what must be done, so that what must be done, or so that what will be done is in line with the plan. a process for determining what work has been carried out, assessing and correcting it if necessary, with the intention of carrying out the work in accordance with the original plan. supervision is every effort and action in order to find out how far the implementation of the task is carried out according to the provisions and objectives to be achieved. (cohen, 2019; dove & bryant, 2019) in relation to the fishery, product quality control system has experienced quite a rapid development. however, the national fishery product quality control system that has been implemented so far seems to still require sharpening and feedback so that its implementation is more effective and efficient. this is intended to unite the pace of all levels and networks of the quality of fishery quality supervisors, especially in terms of the similarity of perceptions about the importance of implementing quality assurance for fishery products related to food safety and quality. in addition, it is necessary to harmonize understandings in the application of quality supervision by quality supervisors, both at the center and in various regions throughout indonesia, as well as refinement of several related documents. in law number 31 of 2004 concerning fisheries as amended by law number 45 of 2009 concerning the amendment of law number 31 of 2004 concerning fisheries it is expressly regulated that the fisheries business is carried out in the fisheries business system which includes pre-production, production, processing, and marketing. furthermore, it is also stipulated that the fish processing and processed fish products process must meet the requirements for fish processing feasibility and fishery products quality and safety assurance system. as an effort to implement and operationalize the mandate of the act in question, more regulations are needed in continuing regarding processing, quality of fishery products, and security assurance system, so that it is based on the stipulation of government regulation concerning fishery product quality and safety assurance system and increasing the added value of fishery products. the quality fishery product and safety assurance system is a prevention and control effort that must be considered and carried out from pre-production to distribution to producing good quality fisheries that are safe for human health. quality control covers all activities which include inspection, verification, surveillance, audit, and sampling in order to guarantee the quality and safety of the fishery products. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 28 – 41 existence of consumer protection… | 35 in the republic of indonesia’s government regulation no. 57 of 2015 concerning the system for guaranteeing the quality and safety of fishery products and increasing the added value of fishery products, in this case, fisheries are all activities related to the management and utilization of fish resources and the environment starting from pre-production, production, processing to marketing carried out in a fisheries business system. raw fish materials include the parts that come from the catch and cultivation that can be used as a factor of production in the processing of fishery products. fish are all types of organisms that all or part of their life cycle is in the aquatic environment. again, talking about quality control in the field of fisheries, the quality control activities, through: 1. quality supervision is carried out on cultivation or capture activities, handling, processing, packaging, storage, and distribution of fishery products. 2. quality supervision is carried out through the: • guidance in the preparation of procedures and application of requirements for cultivation or capture, handling, processing, packaging, storage, and distribution; • guidance and facilitation in document preparation, validation, and quality system implementation; and • monitoring and evaluation of the quality and safety of products for consumption. 3. quality supervision results in the form of recommendations for issuing a feasibility processing certificate. 4. quality supervision is carried out by the quality supervisor. quality supervisors are civil servants who are appointed by the minister or officials who are then appointed to carry out quality control. according to the republic of indonesia’s government regulation no. 58 of 2001 concerning guidance and supervision of the implementation of consumer protection, article 7 states that supervision of the implementation of consumer protection and the application of statutory regulations is carried out by the government, the community, and non-governmental consumer protection institutions. supervision is carried out by means of research, testing, and/or surveys. research, testing, and/or surveys as intended are carried out on goods that are allegedly not fulfilling the elements of security, health, comfort, and safety of consumers. with regard to quality supervision, the researcher has presented sensory analysis sheets based on the indonesian national standart 01-2729-1992 on the quality of fish as follows, the sensory quality of skipjack fish sold in the markets in manado and its surroundings, the results of the analysis show that the value of quality ranges from 6-8, with the following assessment criteria score of 7-9 is stated to be fresh, the score of 4-6 is stated to be somewhat fresh, the score of 1-3 id stated to be not fresh. law enforcement of fishery activities that violate the law are: volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 28 – 41 36 | existence of consumer protection… 1. fishery activities conducted by foreign people or ships in water that are part of the jurisdiction of a certain country without permission from the said country or that are contrary to the laws and regulations of said country; 2. fishery activities are carried out by ships that are flying the flag of a country that is a member of a regional fisheries management organization but are carried out in a manner that is contrary to the regulation concerning the management and conservation of resources adopted by the organization, where the provisions are binding on the country that is a member, or contrary to other relevant international laws; and/or 3. fishery activities that are contrary to national law or international obligations, including the obligations of member states of regional fisheries management organizations towards the said organization. “unreported fishery activities” are: a.i.1. fishery activities that are not reported or are reported incorrectly to the authorized national authorities, which are contrary to the laws and regulations of the authorized national authorities; and/or a.i.2. fishery activities carried out in the area of competence of regional fisheries management organizations that are not reported or are reported incorrectly, which is contrary to the reporting procedures of the organization. unregulated fishery activities are: 1. fishery activities carried out in the area of competence of regional fisheries management organizations by: a) a ship without nationality; b) ships that fly the flag of a country that is not a member of the regional fisheries management organization; or c) fishery companies, in which the fishery activities are carried out in a manner that is contrary to the regulations concerning the conservation and management of fisheries of the regional fisheries management organization. 2. fishery activities carried out by: a) a ship without nationality;

2. community structure; and 3. institutions/organizations. of the 3 (three) elements mentioned above, the implementation cannot be separated from the influence of the environment in the form of certain patterns and behaviors of the community. the law, in carrying out its function as a regulator of common life, runs a long process and involves a variety of activities with different qualities and the outline of the activity is in the form of law-making and law enforcement. the law in this sense is not the law in the broad sense, but the law in a positive sense, namely written regulations or legislation that apply in a certain place, in this case in indonesia. factors that affect law enforcement are: (1) the legal factor itself, namely the legislation. (2) the law enforcement factor, namely those who form or apply the law (government and law enforcement officers). (3) the factors of facilities and infrastructure that support law enforcement. (4) the cultural factor. the success of law enforcement always requires the functioning of all components of the legal system. law enforcement system for the marketing of skipjack fish as a safe food product can be described as follows: 1. the legal substance component is law no. 8 of 1999 concerning the law of consumer protection. • article 1:1 of the consumer protection act states that: consumer protection is all efforts that guarantee legal certainty to provide protection to consumers. • article 4 of the consumer protection act states that: consumer rights are the right to comfort, security, and safety in consuming goods and/or services. • article 7 of the consumer protection act states that: the obligations of business actors are good faith in carrying out their business activities. • article 8:2 of the consumer protection act states that: business actors are prohibited from trading damaged, defective or used, and polluted goods without providing complete and correct information on the said goods. • article 19 of the consumer protection act states that: business actors are responsible for providing compensation for damage, pollution, and/or services produced or traded. 2. the legal structure component is: • in connection with the foregoing, the law cannot be upheld if there is no credible, competent, and independent legal apparatus. if the law is not supported by a good legal apparatus, then justice is only wishful thinking. the weakness of the legal apparatus mentality has resulted in the application, implementation, and volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 28 – 41 38 | existence of consumer protection… enforcement of the law not working properly. many factors influence the weakness of the legal apparatus mentality. even though the regulations are good, if the quality of law enforcement is low, there will be problems. there is an adage that states that fiat justitia et pereat mundus meaning even though the world is collapsing the law must be upheld. the law cannot be upheld if there are no law enforcement officers who are credible, competent, and independent. if the law is not supported by a good law enforcement officer, then justice is only wishful thinking. this means that a legal structure is needed in the application, implementation, and law enforcement of the law. • however, on a practical level, there are several problems that exist, namely: • weak coordination between the government vertically, namely the central government: the directorate general of consumer protection at the central ministry of trade with regional governments: the field of consumer protection of north sulawesi industry and trade service; and horizontally, namely the north sulawesi industry and trade service the north sulawesi special criminal investigation directorate the north sulawesi pom agency. • the lack of human resource stakeholders in carrying out their duties as investigators in consumer protection law enforcement. • weak public service. • the local government has not provided the means and facilities for the consumer dispute settlement agency. 3. the legal culture component is: • diversity of ideas about the law that exist in various societies and their position in the social order. these ideas explain legal practices, the attitude of citizens towards the law and unwillingness to file cases, and relative legal significance, in explaining broader thoughts and behaviors outside of practice and specific forms of discourse related to legal institutions. thus, variations in legal culture may be able to explain a lot about the different ways in which legal institutions that appear to be the same can function in different societies. • in connection with the purpose of this study, the indicator of legal culture is a measure from researchers to trace the effectiveness of law number 8 of 1999 concerning consumer protection. • based on facts found in the field, the following are discovered: i. the existence of culture set and mindset stakeholders have not fully supported a bureaucracy that is efficient and effective, productive and professional. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 28 – 41 existence of consumer protection… | 39 ii. the weakness of the legal apparatus mentality has resulted in law enforcement not working as it should. iii. weak public service from stakeholders. iv. the stakeholder of the human resources factor is not yet competent. v. the performance of government organizations is still low. vi. the monitoring system has not yet run optimally. vii. performance accountability is not yet effective therefore the legislation still overlaps. viii. weak coordination vertically, namely the central government: the directorate general of consumer protection at the ministry of trade with the regional government: the consumer protection sector of the north sulawesi industry and trade office; and horizontally, namely the north sulawesi industry and trade service the north sulawesi special criminal investigation directorate the north sulawesi pom agency. ix. the lack of attention from stakeholders in implementing law no. 8 of 1999 concerning consumer protection. x. the lack of public awareness of law no. 8 of 1999 concerning the law on consumer protection. the field conditions stated above indicate a lack of legal culture from both stakeholders and citizens. this is certainly an inhibiting factor in consumer protection law enforcement. this is intended, that if the government and society have had a positive value, then the law will be well received, on the contrary, if it is negative, the community will oppose and stay away from the law and might even consider that the law does not exist. legal culture is closely related to public legal awareness. the higher legal awareness of the community will create a good legal culture and can change the mindset of the public regarding the law. in simple terms, the level of compliance with the law is one indicator of the functioning of the law. conclusion the process of catching, storing, and marketing skipjack tuna in north sulawesi still uses traditional methods where the health and safety aspects of the catch cannot be ascertained, and the storage and marketing process for skipjack tuna is not in accordance with the appropriate standard operating procedures so that the impact on the incorrect information provided to the consumer and the process of catching, storing and marketing skipjack tuna in north sulawesi still uses traditional methods where the health and safety aspects of the catch cannot be ascertained and the storage and marketing process for skipjack tuna is not in accordance with the appropriate standard operating procedures so that the impact on the incorrect information provided to the consumer. and the suggestions that the author gives are in the context of consumer protection law enforcement in north sulawesi, the vertical coordination of the shareholders is needed, volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 28 – 41 40 | existence of consumer protection… namely: the central ministry of trade and the north sulawesi trade industry service; as well as horizontally, namely the north sulawesi trade industry service north sulawesi special criminal investigation directorate north sulawesi food and drug supervisory agency. there needs to be the empowerment of human resources for civil servant investigators because all this time there has been a lack of human resources for stakeholders in carrying out their duties as investigators of civil servants in consumer protection law enforcement. it is necessary to establish a consumer dispute settlement agency in consumer protection law enforcement. reference abel, n., rotabakk, b. t., & lerfall, j.

underage-marriage date of submission: august 10, 2021 date of publication: december 31, 2021 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.33096/substantivejustice.v4i2.167 introduction amendments to article 7 paragraph (1) of the marriage law can cause problems in increasing the practice of child marriage. the current minimum age limit of 19 years for women is a new problem for suppressing the number of early marriages in indonesia.1 the practice of child marriage is heavily influenced by the two main sectors of the function of the competent authority, structurally and the legal culture of the community towards the marriage law so that the practice of underage marriage continues.2 failure to accommodate data on underage marriages in each year changes to law number 16 of 2019 will harm the controlling early marriage.3 the revision of the marriage law (uup) is inseparable from the decision of the constitutional court, which states that everyone must be given fundamental rights and constitutional rights. it can be seen that the position of the decision is strongly motivated by 1 mayadina rohmi musfiroh, “pernikahan dini dan upaya perlindungan anak di indonesia,” de jure: jurnal hukum dan

and the health of a child by getting married at a young age.4 likewise, with the drafting process, the stipulation in parliament is the same pretext that women must have equal political, economic, and social positions so that the ages of women and men are equalized for the equal rights of a person. the revitalization of the marriage law (uup) creates a burden on measures to minimize the practice of underage marriage. the minimum age for women is too high, so it is a new burden for the office of religious affairs (kua) to face the pressure of early marriage practices.5 in addition, religious courts will still be an exceptional alternative and provide space for applicants to obtain legality and recognition before the law 6; 7. although for example, the court (judge) is forced to give a decision as a legal umbrella because the behavior of women and men and the role of the family are not very functional. according to yunus, the portrait of the practice of underage marriage in the last three years has increased based on 2017-2019 data.8 the increase in the number of marriages is due to several supporting factors, namely a low level of understanding, the economy, free association, and the will of family members.9 the factor causing young marriage is the reality of changes to article 7 paragraph (1) of the uup experiencing social issues in a judicial review in the constitutional court and a revision in the dpr ri. minimum age-specific changes cannot solve the problem of young marriage practice because the changes are not based on the actual root cause. law as a social control solves a problem not based on changes (revisions) to legal products from a selfish perspective and existing minority cases. the modification of the marriage law is a phenomenon that can have a negative impact on the existence of underage marriages. the factor that causes the practice of easy marriage is the failure of institutions and agencies in providing education and counseling to the maximum. the steps to resolve underage marriage must be based on the real root of the problem. the legal policy led to a polemic against implementing the revised marriage law, still prioritizing normative steps as the leading force without looking at other facts as the main factor. the practice of early marriage continues to increase. the neglected sociological facts are about structural functions that are in direct contact with the field as a form of implementation, socialization of the marriage law from the 4 inna noor inayati, “perkawinan anak di bawah umur dalam perspektif hukum,

examining the synchronization and systematics of legal products whose existence is categorized as valid data. this writing uses statute approach, associated with a conceptual approach that focuses on legal concepts and legal principles relevant to implementation in indonesia. analysis and discussion a. factors affecting changes in marriage law 1. the decision of the constitutional court (mk) as an instrument the reconstruction of the minimum age limit for marriage is motivated by legal protection for women. the argument is apparent in the decision of the constitutional court (mk) register 22/puu-xv/2017 that every child has the right to have their constitutional rights as citizens, including the right to health insurance (mental and physical, as well as women's welfare. along with the times that encourage the development of women's productivity and education, the minimum age limit for women has caused debate, on the other hand; the constitutional court has rejected the judicial review article 7 paragraph because it will generate new problems in the practice of marriage and this is in line with the increase in the divorce rate which is still high.10 on the other hand, in the2017 article 7 paragraph 1 the year 2017 of the marriage law, several people again sued and demanded justice as a form of legal equality between women and men (equality before the law) by citing article 27 paragraph of the 1945 nri constitution 11. equality before the law that the child's age has implications for the practice of early marriage in the community. this aspect of change cannot be separated from the factual arguments put forward by community groups, namely the issue of human rights (ham), health, justice for women.12 indeed, marriage is a constitutional right mandated by the constitution that every child has the right to form a family and give birth to offspring. then there should not be a single prohibition 10 xavier nugraha, risdiana izzaty, and annida aqiila putri, “rekonstruksi batas usia minimal perkawinan sebagai bentuk perlindungan hukum terhadap perempuan (analisa putusan mk no. 22/puu-xv/2017),” lex scientia law review 3, no. 1 (2019): 40–54. 11 ibid. 12 s

article 7 paragraph 1 of the marriage law in indonesia | 185 volume 4, issue 2, december 2021 : 182 – 194 for a person to be able to get married as long as the provisions regarding legal marriages are fulfilled based on the marriage law but related to child marriage, it is only natural that the age limit for marriage conditions are regulated as a means of control for the state.13 likewise, the constitutional court (mk) position is only given the authority to examine a normative provision vertically so that the court cannot provide a legal logic to the law that is equivalent to the one it is testing, causing polemics against other laws. the mandate of legislation has full authority to adapt to different regulations. still, the changes are made following interests without seeing and considering priority facts as the basis for these changes. 2. marriage law legislation process one of the main factors as a legal basis is based on the decision of the constitutional court (mk) as an instrument for changing the law mandated by law number 12 of 2011 concerning the establishment of legislation. therefore, the gap in forming a normative horizontal marriage law is not fully accommodated, including civil law for children aged at least 18 years, civil registration for children aged 18 years, and the health side is at least 21 years old. of the several age choices regulated by law, there are inconsistencies in the size of a child's youth so that the change is floating because of the many age variants as a provision for a child's maturity. changes in the marriage law that the government's basis for a child to marry at the age of 16 years, a child is not mentally sufficient, fulfilling education, and health after pregnancy. in addition, the age of 16 is not yet closely related to the right to get 12 years of schooling 14. however, changes to the age limit were made by legislators beyond the age of child protection which set the standard 18 years. tirmizi that the community's paradigm that understands the size of maturity is different from the perspective of health and law. community parameters regarding the scope of maturity are when a child has met financial needs, physical changes have matured, pregnant out of wedlock, and mindset society's own 15. therefore, lawmakers' change in the minimum age is a phenomenon that can be realized as the basis that the practice of underage marriage should not be resolved by changing the substance of the law. instead, the implementation of resource utilization from the central and regional levels to remote areas is used as an instrument to overcome community practices, especially young marriage. andi yaqub said that inequality occurred in the community, not because of regulatory factors. still, the involvement of extension workers was not maximal in 13 jihan anjania aldi, elma putri tanbun, and xavier nugraha, “tinjauan yuridis kewenangan dewan kehormatan penyelenggara pemilu (dkpp) dalam menciptakan pemilu

volume 4, issue 2, december 2021 : 182 – 194 contacting the community to provide assistance and special education related to families and children 16. b. implications of law no. 16 of 2019 on marriage practices data from unicef that the practice of child marriage that among 24 provinces there are 11 provinces has increased every 2015-2018 against the practice of child marriage is still young 17 illustrated as in table 1: table 1. increase in child marriage in indonesia according to unicef province before enhancement north maluku 10,01% 13,36% sulawesi average 14% average 19% west sulawesi 14 % 19,43% central and east kalimantan 11,54% 19,13% ntb, jawa, bali 14,48% from the presentation of the practice of child marriage, the average age of those who practice this practice is in the age group > 15, > 16, > 18 years, the majority is practiced by the female gender group 18. considering the factor of the average age of child marriage, the change in the legal substance of the latest article 7 paragraph 1 marriage law was carried out without looking at field data as a sociological basis for changes to the law. so that the change in legal substance is a negative discourse regarding the practice of marriage. according to waqiah, the child's legal position difference before and after the change is still postulated with strict provisions. however, this basis is still put forward in urgent conditions to ascertain whether it is acute or not; this is rarely done by law enforcement officials and can even be played by law enforcement officials to legalize early marriage on the basis of court decisions 19. then the amendments to article 7, paragraph 1 of the marriage law based on data on the age of children who apply for a marriage dispensation based on data the average age is 14.5 years for girls and 16.5 years for boys. then the divorce rate is decided to reach 500,000 or about 24% of the total divorce. decisions are known to be married at the age of children and indicate a high divorce rate for women who are married under the age of 18 (eighteen) years. so that public awareness is needed as a basis for reducing the entity of marriage at an early age, including the legal culture of the community 20. 16 andi yaqub, iswandi, and jabal nur, “reconstruction of the sakīnah family criteria during the covid-19 period” 31, no. 1 (2021): 1–24. 17 gaib hakiki et al.,

the legislation explicitly regulating this latest marriage is that such changes will pose new problems in overcoming the age of marriage. amri and khalidi said the difference in the age limit for marriage rather than lawmakers did not formulate the impact if there was a violation such as criminal sanctions as a form of emphasis so that the practice of early marriage remains a trend among children. the horizontal relationship in the law-making marriage law is only based on law number 23 of 2014 on child protection 21. therefore, on this basis, the legislators only negate the normative horizontal and vertical provisions as the main components without studying the social impacts that will be caused. apart from that, sociological facts are also only based on minority cases in the community without looking at the factors driving the practice of early marriage. the implication of changing the age limit of article 7, paragraph 1 of the marriage law is that the ngamprah religious court has impacted changing the minimum age limit, increasing the application for marriage dispensation from 2019-2020 significantly. the representation of marriage dispensation applications in 2019 recorded 81 cases of early marriage, and in 2020, there were 44 cases at the beginning of the year. therefore, the ngamprah religious court stated that changing the minimum age limit for a child has a significant impact on increasing the practice of early marriage 22. looking at the data on the practice of underage marriage since the age limit of 16 years and 19 years after these changes has a negative impact on the course of marriage at an early age. c. inefficient participation of the office of religious affairs (kua) minimizing the practices of early marriage that kua's participation has a central role in suppressing the number of underage marriages because kua is a line that has direct contact with the community and has tools such as extension workers to educate the public. but this contrasts with what oktavia said that public knowledge about the risks of marriage at a young age is still below average 23. thus, fieldwork such as counseling, socialization of the marriage law, and integration with other agencies as supporting factors are also not appropriately utilized. likewise, according to daryus, the kua has a role in increasing the socialization of the law to the community. because not all levels of society understand and even know about the position of the marriage law and similarly in anticipating the practice of underage marriage if only looking at the administrative completeness of a child who wants to marry. these factors 21 aulil amri and muhadi khalidi, “efektivitas undang-undang nomor 16 tahun 2019 terhadap pernikahan,” jurnal justisia: jurnal ilmu hukum, perundang-undangan dan pranata sosial 6, no. (1) (2021): 85–101. 22 pengadillan agama ngamprah, pengaruh undang-undang nomor 16 tahun 2019 tentang perubahan atas undang-undang nomor 1 tahun 1974 tentang perkawinan terhadap jumlah perkara

paradoxical implications of article 7 paragraph 1 of the marriage law in indonesia have no effect and impact on the prevention because there is still a way to legalize the practice by applying for a marriage dispensation to the court 24. najib said that overcoming the practice and minimizing it needed to be integrated from various components, namely health workers, religious leaders, community leaders, government, and families. this integration process can be created as a form of education so that the law can be implemented following the purpose of its formation 25. this integration process is not found as a form of unity in overcoming the impact of underage marriage so that the gap increases and takes place among the community. likewise, data from the ministry of religion related to the effectiveness of the office of religious affairs (kua) throughout indonesia does not run optimally because of the total number of kua only about 10% are functioning optimally to provide counseling. so that the public's understanding of the basics of marriage is based on the law, both in terms of the consequences of marrying a child young and the boundaries are not well known. this understanding occurred because of the lack of socialization of the previous law, and the legislators made changes 26. the role of kua and its instruments is a factor or main in minimizing the practice of marriage at an early age. kareema and garfes said that the phenomenon in the field regarding the exercise of underage marriage has a variety of motives, including 1) the age range of children and parents are not far apart, 2) there is a third person 3) they are considered to know nothing about the law, 3) impact of underage marriage and 4) changing locations 27. from the factors behind that, the executive officers who are domiciled in the regions do not understand the series of laws regarding the impact and legal position in the force so that underage marriage occurs and is significant. based on these data, explain that the main factor is not influenced by the age limit of 16 years, which is more problematic than before. still, the implementation of the law and explaining the substance to understand a factor is one of the main factors. especially the existence of the kua, which always relies on the judicial function as the last step to get the legal umbrella of a child as to legal standing. the two components that the kua and the court integrate are that, of course, the final solution is to give a decision to carry out the practice of underage marriage, because of course, each applicant will provide concrete testimony and the negative impact of a child so that the goal of underage marriage continues. 24 erlin el daryus, “peranan pegawai pencatat nikah (ppn) dalam

in indonesia | 189 d. marriage law: negative impact on emphasizing young marriage rates data on underage marriage was still significant before the minimum age limit was changed to 19. it continued to increase every year and the projected average divorce rate for a child who married at a young age. the form of revision carried out by lawmakers does not look at the influencing factors so that the practice continues to increase. according to pratiwi, early marriage is carried out because of internal and external impulses that affect a child. internal factors are the encouragement of family and parents because they think marriage is a match and an opportunity for children, and internal factors are influenced by colleagues because they see their friends getting married and even things that a child does not want because they are pregnant out of wedlock 28. these factors can basically be used as benchmarks before changes to the law itself are made to decide whether the problematic marriage law is the legal substance, legal structure, and/or legal culture. conclusion therefore, it can be traced that the problems that occurred in law no. 16 of 2019 concerning particular marriage article 7 paragraph 1, borrowing from friedman the legal system theory, which is divided into three indicators, namely legal substance, legal structure, and legal cultural 29. so these three indicators are as follows: 1. revision of legal subtance of marriage law article 7 paragraph 1 the revision of article 7 paragraph 1 regarding the age limit of children is not a concrete solution to minimize the practice of underage marriage. still, it will have a negative impact on the number of young marriage entities because it has standardization that exceeds the limits of the child protection law and the category of adolescent age in the regulations. according to talli, changing the substance of the law will make it easier for institutions or law enforcement to carry out legal processes following the rules 30. however, looking at the position of the material and formal legal substance of the marriage law, it can be seen that in material direction. changes were made significantly and exceeded the age limits of adolescence and ignored a component of data about factors that influence the increase in the volume of underage marriages. likewise, formally, the legal position is only based on the will and participation from below to the obstacles faced by law enforcement as well as the components of the agency in direct contact with the community. one of the participations that can be used as a basis is that the increase in underage marriage every year always experiences a significant boost as well as various studies 28 bintang agustina pratiwi et al., “analisis pernikahan usia dini di kabupaten bengkulu tengah tahun 2017,” jurnal kesmas asclepius 8, no. 5 (2019): 55. 29 lawrence m. friedman, the legal system a social science perspective (new york: russell sage foundation, 1987). 30

76–93. volume 4, issue 2, december 2021 : 182 – 194 190 | paradoxical implications of article 7 paragraph 1 of the marriage law in indonesia which state that underage marriage is based on association, parental will, and the economy, as well as a lack of understanding of the components of the marriage law. therefore, this basis is not a change in a substance as the primary reference for solving problems in the community even though the child protection law regulates the ideal age of 18 years. instead, activate human resources and integrate with other agencies. together, provide education to the public on the negative impact of underage marriage. 2. problems with institutional structures changes in the substance of article 7 paragraph 1 regarding the minimum age limit of 19 years for children are a failure of lawmakers to understand other factors as a form of consideration of sociological facts as a basis so that the structural function is not a significant problem in preventing underage marriages, yaqub state that one of the factors in the ongoing gap in the field for the existence of family harmonization was the involvement of kua and extension workers providing education for the future of the family 31. therefore, with the less than optimal involvement of the kua and its tools, most of the practices are not following the law. the structural function is the way to print underage marriages. basically, the legality lies in the horizontal position of the agency, namely between the kua and the religious courts as the printers of underage marriages. because a child is based on a recommendation from the kua, and then the court gives a legal decision as to legal standing 32. so structurally, regulations and arrangements and sanctions should be the main point, not the minimum age to be increased because it will have an impact on dispensation for marriage in court. 3. the culture of the people is less aware of the marriage law changes in the minimum age limit to 19 years law number 16 of 2016 concerning marriage that sociological facts are only based on human rights such as the fulfillment of fundamental rights without looking at other facts as the basis for the legal logic of the marriage law. friedman said that the legal culture is not as long as it is realized in written law but is realized as a form of treatment to the community by utilizing human resources in those who have a role in the field. asnawi said that the positivistic flow of law could not as long as it can create justice and legal benefits for the community because this is done following the political will of the legislators 33. so observing the change in the age limit is based on the political interests of gender without considering the negative impacts with the age limit of 19 years. the 31 yaqub, iswandi, and nur, “reconstruction of the sakīnah family criteria during the covid-19 period.” 32 janah, “dispensasi nikah di bawah umur dalam hukum islam pernikahan adalah

2, december 2021 : 182 – 194 paradoxical implications of article 7 paragraph 1 of the marriage law in indonesia | 191 ongoing positivistic culture and its enormous influence on this marriage law's existence is that problem solving must be based on binding rules. in terms of the upstream issue of the practice of underage marriage, many researchers have revealed that early marriage is based on the legal culture of the people who do not understand the substance and its impact. so that the reform should take place by increasing community capacity and implementing the law with creativity, starting from the primary education sector to the primary education sector. follow-up and sustainable family education as the main program 34. likewise, the implication of changing the minimum age of 19 years to get married will impact increasing the practice of underage marriage with the legal standing of court decisions. thus, the marriage law cannot provide an answer and instead becomes an alternative or a way for children to practice marriage 35. so that child protection efforts will be in vain and do not affect having a permanent legal umbrella. even though muhajir state, the protection procedure was initiated as a form of fulfilling the necessities of life, it is human nature 36. however, it will not have a positive impact on minimizing the practice of underage marriage because it requires integration and synergy across institutions as an instrument in prevention based on community education (non-formal). similarly, solomon's narrative and similar research regarding the age limit of a child, the majority think that it has reached the point of benefit 37; 38. but forgetting the impact of a minimum age of 19 years will have implications for law enforcement agencies (the judiciary) and the community. likewise, wijaya and thai state that law number 16 of 2019 has been adequate and is supported by dispensation tools 39. the built paradigm is that there is a failure to understand a legal, cultural substance in the community with the support of essential data related to underage marriage. 34 ana latifatul muntamah, dian latifiani, and ridwan arifin, “pernikahan

the quality of democracy,2 and indonesia as a democratic country entrusted with the general elections in the 1945 constitution of the republic of indonesia. the post-amendment constitution has provided the basis for the administration of the state and an orderly arrangement of communal life. this is reflected in recognition of people’s sovereignty, which is carried out according to the constitution (article 1 paragraph 2 of the 1945 constitution) as well as the confirmation that the state of indonesia is a constitutional state (article 1 paragraph 3 of the 1945 constitution). the

of judges in supreme court decision number: 46 p/hum/2018 | 157 whereas in the provisions of article 240 paragraph (1) letter g there is no norm that prohibits former corruption convicts from nominating themselves as candidates for dpr and dprd. the supreme court considers article 4 paragraph (3), article 11 paragraph (1) letter d and the model attachment b.3 regulation of the election commission number 20 of 2018 in principle has limited the political rights of someone who will run as a prospective legislative candidate in the general election. the considerations of the supreme court in terms of the formation of legislation containing article 4 paragraph (3), article 11 paragraph (1) letter g and appendix model b.3 of the election commission regulation number 20 year 2018 are not in line, conflict or do not meet the principles formation of good statutory regulations as explained in article 12 letter d of law number 12 of 2011, namely “the regulations under the law contain material to carry out the law as it should”. however, the material in article 4 paragraph (3), article 11 paragraph (1) letter g and appendix to model b.3 of the election commission regulation number 20 year 2018 which regulates a person’s political rights and contains a prohibition for former corruption convicts to run for people’s representatives is regulations which have never been ordered by the laws above, in this case law number 7 of 2017 concerning general election in conjunction with law number 12 of 2011 concerning formation of laws and regulations. the judge saw an election commission action that made provisions that were not ordered by law. decision of the supreme court number 46 p/hum/2018, the judge mentioned several considerations as the basis of interpretation such as article 28 of the 1945 constitution, law number 12 of 2005 concerning ratification of the international covenant on civil and political rights (international covenant on rights civil and politics), article 43 paragraph (1) and article 73 of law number 39 concerning human rights, article 18 paragraph (1) letter d of law number 31 of 1999 concerning eradication of corruption in conjunction with article 35 paragraph (1 ) the criminal code (kuhp) which regulates the revocation of political rights (the right to choose and vote). based on the judges’ considerations above in adjudicating and adjudicating cases mentioning article 4 paragraph (3), article 11 paragraph (1) letter g and appendix model b.3 of the election commission regulation number 20 year 2018 is contrary to law number 7 year 2017 concerning general election in conjunction with law number 12 of 2011 concerning the formation of regulations and regulations in its ruling so that the two laws become the main basis for the test in interpreting but also other considerations are inseparable parts because they also have a relationship with the judge’s ruling. decision of the supreme court number 46 p/hum/2018 when viewed from the method of legal discovery by a judge making legal discoveries based on the law, interpretation is made of the norms in the law as a guide, the text in the law becomes volume 2, issue 2, december 2019 : 147 160 interpretation of judges in supreme court decision number: 46 p/hum/2018 158 | the main reference by the judge in deciding the case. the first time taken by the judge in the beginning of the interpretation of the judge must learn the word in the wording of the sentence or its relationship with other regulations, and this is the first way that must be done by the judge. therefore the supreme court decision number 46 p/hum/2018 must be respected because it has been through the method of interpretation that is in accordance with the principles and principles in applying its power in finding and creating law. conclusion decision of the supreme court number 46 p/hum/2018 which adjudicates that article 4 paragraph (3), article 11 paragraph (1) letter g and appendix model b.3 election commission regulation number 20 year 2018 is contrary to law number 7 year 2017 concerning general election in conjunction with law number 12 of 2011 concerning formation of regulations and regulations judges’ considerations are based on the interpretation of the test object test stones namely the sentences in the text of law number 7 of 2017 concerning elections and law number 12 of 2011 concerning the formation of laws and regulations as a guide so that the interpretation of judges is based on exploring the meaning contained in written norm text statements by studying the text in sentence structure or its relationship to other regulations. reference asshiddiqie, jimly.

(trueblood & pettibone, 2017) (banerjee et al., 2022) (keck & tang, 2020) there are also those who use the decoy effect as a profitable marketing strategy. (uribe et al., 2017) however, many of these studies have not addressed the decoy effect in relation to digital literacy. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ mailto:afrilia.c.psc19@mail.umy.ac.id http://dx.doi.org/10.33096/substantivejustice.v5i2.196 volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 193 – 208 194 | consumer legal protection… figure-1. scopus indexed papers on “decoy effect” source: vosviewer processed results understanding the decoy effect and digital literacy are critical given the rapid changes in online buying and selling transaction, (azemi & kini, 2021) (uribe et al., 2017) (yu, 2022) even artificial intelligence is used in online trading research. (bawack et al., 2022) digitalization can have a positive impact on well-being, but at the same time it can be disruptive. (ferrari et al., 2022) digital literacy skills will reduce the negative impact of the decoy effect, especially on the millennial generation. (lu, 2022) by using the theoretical framework of legal protection for the millennial generation to avoid the negative impacts of decoy products, this article will discuss the concepts of legal protection, decoy products, and digital literacy. the research approach uses a qualitative descriptive study. data were collected through literature studies, questionnaires, and interviews. currently, indonesia has law number 8 of 1999 concerning consumer protection to strengthen the balance of justice, consumer safety and security as well as legal certainty. (arif & djajaputera, 2022). indonesia also has legal protection for consumers' freedom of opinion, which is respected and guaranteed by the 1945 constitution in article 28 and article 28e paragraph (3), freedom of expression in public in the law of the republic of indonesia number 9 of 1998, and the indonesian human rights law number 39 of 1999. (y. li, 2020) many business actors who feel aggrieved by negative comments and consumer opinions on social media use the electronic information and transaction law as a basis for protecting their rights as business actors. on the other hand, business actors attempt to increase sales through marketing strategies while disregarding existing laws. volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 193 – 208 consumer legal protection… | 195 literature study the law protects consumers from the negative psychological influence of business actors. it also protects consumers from reporting business actors who feel polluted or harmed. however, as information technology advances, one marketing strategy that has caught the attention of legal experts is the use of decoys in the marketing of certain products. the decoy effect is a marketing strategy that uses bait products to influence consumer decisions (m. cui, 2022). (f. li et al., 2020) these bait products are usually offered in the form of three different options in terms of size, price, shape, and so on to attract consumers. (whitman et al., 2019) (jeong et al., 2021) (meng et al., 2018) human choices are influenced by the context in which choices are presented. (whitman et al., 2019) as an example, consider the following two options: a and b, which differ in price and size. both of these options are presented to consumers, so the choice is a or b, but suddenly option c is presented with a slightly lower price and larger size as a bait product, even though choice c is what the business actors hope for. consumers change their preferences to c to make business actors happy, but consumers are trapped in the decoy effect. (c. wu & cosguner, 2020) (l. wu et al., 2020) some companies tend to make the target product more appealing by introducing a third alternative (which is usually referred to as the "bait") by exploiting the consumer's ignorance and doubts to create a dilemma so that the company makes the expected decision. this is known as the "bait effect," and it is a common occurrence in the real world (meng et al., 2018). the bait effect is relatively stronger when a consumer makes a consumption choice in a non-induced situation and then makes a choice in a situation with inductive information, whereas the creation of a situational direct feed has a relatively small impact on consumer purchase selection behavior. (xu et al., 2021) before purchasing a product, consumers should use their knowledge to their advantage. consumers with more knowledge will be able to make better choices from the company's wide range of products. the internet is one source of knowledge that can be used in today's digital era. consumers can obtain the information they require about the products offered via the internet. consumers must have digital literacy skills in order to obtain, process, and apply information from the internet. digital literacy as a technical skill and understanding of ideas, (peng & yu, 2022) is a basic information technology literacy to understand global awareness. (mujtahid et al., 2021) basic literacy is the ability to understand how information technology devices work and the benefits of information technology, not only for recreation and non-educational purposes. (dashtestani & hojatpanah, 2020) digital literacy is not just the ability to use digital devices or know how to use various software (baber et al., 2022), but the basic literacy they have about the benefits or uses volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 193 – 208 196 | consumer legal protection… of digital devices. digital literacy is an important component of everyone's personal and professional life in order to survive and thrive in the digital world. (reddy et al., 2022) digital literacy functions as a competency to obtain useful information from various sources via the internet, (peng & yu, 2022) as information and technology skills (mujtahid et al., 2021) and competence to adapt to new media. (reddy et al., 2022) therefore, "digital literacy is the competence to acquire, process, and understand information through internet technology to survive and develop in the digital world". digital literacy plays an important role in promoting self-control. (baber et al., 2022) (peng & yu, 2022) people with low digital literacy tend to have low levels of self-control and have the potential to either become suspects or victims online or offline. (peng & yu, 2022) conversely, people with high digital literacy tend to be able to complete work confidently. (baber et al., 2022) (dashtestani & hojatpanah, 2020) digital literacy is disruptive if it is not accompanied by, among other things, 1) basic literacy, 2) scientific skills, 3) economic skills, 4) information skills, 5) technological skills, 6) visual skills, 7) cultural diversity skills, and 8) global awareness. (mujtahid et al., 2021) parents' economic factors influence their children's digital literacy. (peng & yu, 2022) financial ability has a significant effect on digital literacy skills. (ullah et al., 2022) people with greater economic or financial abilities also tend to have greater digital literacy skills than people with lesser economic or financial abilities. (gong et al., 2021) digital literacy serves as a potential safeguard for young people against the harmful consequences of negative online experiences. (vissenberg et al., 2022) variables such as age, educational background, gender, educational institutions, and preferences can have a large influence on digital literacy levels. (yu, 2022) likewise, a keen interest in digital technology tends to increase digital literacy. (brata et al., 2022) therefore, digital literacy functions to protect the younger generation by increasing education, preferences and interest in understanding digital technology. in line with the advancement of digital technology, consumer protection laws, particularly in financial markets where transactions are related to cash flow, must adapt quickly to these changes, especially the use of social media data (mäihäniemi, 2022). for this reason, it is important to identify potential threats to consumers related to the use of digital transactions and artificial intelligence in financial services. for example, in the case of financial services, one can point out the risks to consumers resulting from the use of digital transactions and artificial intelligence. (bygrave, 2022; vieira, 2022) (d. zhang et al., 2022) protection of their privacy on the internet, exposure to cyberattacks, and liability issues for crimes committed with the use of artificial software (bygrave, 2022; mäihäniemi, 2022; nizioł, 2021). consumers have recognized their rights, which will result in a better appreciation of competition policies by consumers without forcing them to abandon what they already know in terms of competition and consumer protection volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 193 – 208 consumer legal protection… | 197 (tavuyanago, 2020). consumer protection is important as a legal foundation because consumers have no bargaining power with traders and can become targets of market exploitation and abuse (cseres & reyna, 2021). consumers must be provided with useful information for users, especially when considering goals such as safety, fairness, and equity. methodology this study uses a quantitative descriptive approach with research subjects from the millennial generation and generation z who are given a choice of products using bait items. the main focus of this research is a review of consumer protection regarding the effect of decoy products on the millennial generation. there were 101 respondents who were selected randomly. data collection was carried out using a questionnaire technique that was randomly sent to the millennial generation (students). the results of data processing are presented in the form of frequency tables and graphic images to obtain variants of all respondents' answers. by using excel and nvivo 12 plus to obtain variants of the respondents' answers, the research results were analyzed by comparing them with data from predetermined literature studies. conclusions after in-depth data analysis are linked to the theoretical framework of the literature review. result and diskudiscussionsi a. result when making decisions to purchase the products offered by the seller, respondents frequently become trapped in the psychological decoy effect. as shown in figure 2, the seller initially offers two types of food and beverage product options for purchase: product a for rp. 15,000 and product b for rp. 23,000. respondents chose product a up to 51.50% of the time and product b up to 48.50% of the time. after offering product c for rp. 25,000, 49.5% of the respondents chose product c. respondents who chose product a were 23.80%; respondents who chose product b were 37.60%. this phenomenon indicates that there has been a significant change in the choices of respondents, not only for those who previously chose product b but also for those who chose product a to change their choices to product c. the bait is product b. the seller expects the product purchased by the consumer to be product c, so the seller succeeds in influencing 49.50% of the respondents. volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 193 – 208 198 | consumer legal protection… figure-2. decoy product for food and beverages source: questionnaire processed results furthermore, sellers offer electronic products, with a choice between products d and e. respondents tend to choose product d in excess of 30.70% and product e in excess of 69.30%. sellers offer product f by slightly increasing the price, so respondents choose product f by as much as 49.50%, while product d decreases to 23.80% and product e decreases to 26.70%. respondents are affected by the decoy effect, that is, they tend to switch their choices to product f. figure-3. decoy product for electronics according to the data in figures 2 and 3, the respondents are trapped in the decoy effect. price, size, quality, and need are the primary motivators for respondents to purchase a product. respondents decided to buy electronic products because of the quality (49.50%), the needs (32.70%), the price (11.90%), and the size (5.90%) (as shown in table 1). meanwhile, 54.40% of respondents chose dominant food and beverages, 22.80% chose price, 20.80% chose size, and 2% chose quality. the following information pertains to the respondents' reasons for selecting the products offered; a b a b c rp.15.000 51,50% rp.23.000 48,50% rp.15.000 37,6023,80 % rp.23.000 24,8037,6 0% rp.25.000 37,6049,5 0% volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 193 – 208 consumer legal protection… | 199 table 1. respondents' reasons for choosing the product electronic food and drink price 11,90% 22,8% size 5,90% 20,8% quality 49,50% 2% needs 32,70% 54,4% electronics food and beverages price 11,90% 22,8% size 5,90% 20,8% quality 49,50% 2% needs 32,70% 54,4% source: questionnaire processed results table 1 shows that more than 101 respondents chose staple foods (22.8%) over electronics (11.9%) for price reasons, while in terms of size, respondents tended to choose food (food and drink) (20.8%) compared to electronics (5.9%). meanwhile, for reasons of quality, respondents tended to prefer electronics (49.5%) over staple foods (2%) and, for reasons of necessity, respondents tended to prefer snacks (70.3%) over electronics (32.7%). this shows that when respondents are offered three products, they tend to be stuck with decoy products when it concerns their daily needs. table 2. information displayed no . very clear clear standard unclear very unclear 1. complete 24,8% 39,6% 27,7% 7,9% 0 2. promotion 13,9% 38,6% 40,6% 5,9% 1% 3. understood d 17,8% 41,6% 30,7 % 9,9% 0 very understoo d dipaha mi standard less understoo d not understo od 1. complete 24,8% 39,6% 27,7% 7,9% 0 2. promotion 13,9% 38,6% 40,6% 5,9% 1% 3. understood 17,8% 41,6% 30,7% 9,9% 0 source: questionnaire processed results volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 193 – 208 200 | consumer legal protection… figure-4. feelings for the product source: questionnaire processed results there is a possibility that the respondents chose because of a lack of information. based on the data in table 2, the completeness of the information included when the product was offered to respondents was: 24.8% answered very clearly, 39.6% answered it was clear, 27.7% answered standard, and 7.9% answered it was not clear. then, when asked about the promotional tools used, 40.6% of respondents said they were standard, 38.6% said they were clear, 13.9% said they were very clear, and 5.9% said they were unclear; even 1% said they were very unclear. finally, when asked about the level of understanding related to the products offered, 41.6% of respondents stated that it was clear, 30.7% stated standards, 17.8% stated that it was very clear, and 9.9% stated that it was not clear. if it is concluded from the three indicators asked related to the completeness of the information, the clarity of the promotional tools, and the level of understanding of the respondents, they are in the very clear, clear, and unclear categories. likewise, when they were asked about feelings, if they were happy with the product offered, then they answered "happy" and "very happy." as depicted in figure 4. "i decided to buy a product because i felt that it was worth the money." "i also feel that the product suits my needs." the results of the interviews show that the issues of price and feelings are very decisive in deciding the choice of a product. b. discussion based on the data in figures 2 and 3 and table 1, respondents tend to be trapped by the decoy effect. they are trapped because of the third product offering (m. cui, 2022; meng, 2018). (l. wu et al., 2020) (l. wu et al., 2021) the third product can be a bait product, it can also be an expected product. (jeong et al., 2021) (whitman et al., 2019) the third product emerged because of changes in size, price, and shape. (tanaiutchawoot et al., 2019) the reasons respondents changed their choices were because of price, size, quality, and need factors. respondents do not realize that they have been trapped in the decoy effect. (cao & alon, 2021) (dumbalska et al., 2020) (l. wu et al., 2021) customers are not always rational when making decisions (chen & mišić, 2022) sometimes influenced by information technology factors, (qamar & aswari, 2018) (y. zhang & liu, 2021) full 17,80 43,60 37,60 1,00 0,00 feeling happy pretty happy happy less happy not happy volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 193 – 208 consumer legal protection… | 201 of uncertainty. a rational decision is a decision to choose an alternative based on certain considerations because it is satisfactory. (asiama & zhong, 2022) rational decisions are decisions that can be measured from uncertainty (awati & nikolova, 2022), avoid emotional factors. (zilincik, 2022) on the other hand, irrational decisions are decisions that are intervened by emotional factors. (amin, 2018) (mahmoud et al., 2020) (shan, 2022) however, bounded rationality always appears in every decision making, namely a decision that has two cultures, namely 'idealistic' and 'pragmatic', (katsikopoulos, 2014) even supported by the development of digital technology. (monteiro, 2016) (febyana & surbakti, 2019) in figure 3 data about the feeling of the product, the respondents feel happy with their choice, even though they are stuck in the decoy effect. thus, the importance of digital literacy in self-control. (baber et al., 2022) (peng & yu, 2022) digital literacy must be accompanied by legal protection to strengthen the balance of justice, consumer safety and security as well as legal certainty. (arif & djajaputera, 2022) the decoy effect can be reduced by providing consumer protection for legal certainty. (perkasa & saly, 2022) the data in figure 2 shows that it is so easy for respondents to get caught up in the decoy product (m. cui, 2022). even though it was acknowledged that the respondents were aware of the effect of the decoy product, as figure 4 explains, they were very happy and quite happy. legal protection is important for consumers, especially from something that can harm consumers. (el-chaarani et al., 2022) (juanda & untari, 2022) strategies for protecting consumers by controlling yourself, the community and the government. (juanda & untari, 2022) the seller completes the explanation related to the decoy product offered to consumers (m. cui, 2022), especially about price changes and size changes (y. (gina) cui, 2021). (l. wu et al., 2020) consumers have the right to know before making a decision, (apffelstaedt & mechtenberg, 2021) so consumers can control themselves. the community knows and provides suggestions or criticism (he et al., 2021) related to the goods offered. (cronin & kerr, 2022) suggestions and criticism through the availability of a suggestion box or consumer satisfaction survey of the products offered. (ren et al., 2022) (he et al., 2021) (ye & li, 2022) sellers socialize survey results and suggestions that have been given by the community in an open and transparent manner. it is more practical and effective to use social media or digitize through the company's official website. likewise, the government formulates policies related to consumer protection. the government is obliged to protect the public (asante & helbrecht, 2022) from negative influences arising from buying and selling or business transactions. (schilling & seuring, 2022) the government draws up consumer protection laws, (szafir & marks, 2022) (ojeda rodríguez & lorenzo, 2022) while ensuring investment stability for producers or companies. existing consumer-related laws must follow market signals, be flexible and rational. so that producers and volume 5, issue 2, december 2022: 193 – 208 202 | consumer legal protection… consumers can conduct transactions controlled by themselves, the community, and the government based on their individual needs. conclusion based on the data in figures 2 and 3 and table 1, respondents have a tendency to be stuck in the decoy effect. the emergence of a third product offering is one of the factors changing choices. the third product was created to bait consumers into changing their choices to increase sales. the third product can be a bait product, but it can also be an expected product. as a bait product, a third product emerges because of changes in size, price, and shape. the reasons respondents changed their choices were because of price, size, quality, and need factors. respondents do not realize that they have been trapped in the decoy effect. existing consumer protection laws must follow market signals and be flexible and rational. so that producers and consumers carry out transactions according to their respective needs in a way that is controlled by themselves according to the needs of the government. consumers have the right to know before making decisions; the public knows and provides suggestions or criticism; and the government formulates policies related to consumer protection. in particular, consumer protection laws specifically protect the public from the negative influence of the decoy effect. the most appropriate way is for consumers to have digital literacy. the seller does not intend to sell the goods offered but with the intention of selling other goods. in order to minimize the influence of the negative decoy effect, namely by increasing knowledge of the products offered so as not to get stuck with the bait items offered. to understand the information related to the products offered. the importance of consumer protection laws related to product attractants for the millennial generation and generation z consumer protection laws will protect against the negative impact of product attractions on making choices due to feelings. laws can be made based on feelings and refer to certain personalities and behaviors as factors that motivate legal action. the way to regulate and protect indonesian consumers from the influence of decoy products and the decoy effect is for law enforcers such as judges, prosecutors, and lawyers to use these two laws strictly. at the same time, they seek amendments or pass new laws related to bait products and bait effects. acknowledgment the author would like to thank yogyakarta muhammadiyah university for providing facilities for this research. the authors would also like to thank sidenreng rappang, dean of the faculty of health at the university of muhammadiyah, for his assistance in data collection. reference amin, f.

(chen & silver, 2022; pelfrey, 2020) the placement of inheritance law in the second book of burgerlijke wetboek (hereinafter referred to as bw), among the property rights is related to the thought of antiquity / time ago as can be seen from the sound of article 528 on the law or rights relating to heirs. article 584 of the bw states that property rights to an object can only be obtained due to ownership, due to attachment, due to expiration, due to inheritance either by law https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ mailto:edylisdiyono@untagsmg.ac.id http://dx.doi.org/10.56087/substantivejustice.v6i1.213 volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 42 – 55 consequences of rejecting the principle... | 43 (abintestato) or by will (testamenteir) or delivery based on a civil event to transfer property rights. the law of testamentary inheritance arose later after the law of inheritance according to statutory provisions. this is due to some facts in society such as: a. that in the middle of the century there was a thought that everyone can act freely on his property, so, naturally, his property is given to others in whole or in part; b. sometimes a testator has a will during his lifetime to give all of his property or only part of it to someone he wants. this is because the testator feels that he has a close relationship with the other person, both those who have blood relations and those who do not have blood relations. the wishes of the inheritance sometimes deviate from the inheritance law because they consider that the distribution of the inheritance law is not following their wishes. (pelfrey, 2020) the law of inheritance allows the testator to determine how to distribute the inheritance that deviates from the law of inheritance. this is a natural thing considering that in essence, an owner of a property has the full right to treat his property to fulfill his wishes according to his own will. for this reason, the heir deserves honor and the last. (wongkar et al., 2021) in indonesia, until now there are still three types of inheritance law that apply. one of them is the law of inheritance regulated according to the bw. while the other two are customary inheritance law and islamic inheritance law. the existence of three types of inheritance law is due to the fact that until now there has been no nationally enacted inheritance law that can be used by all indonesian people. (abubakar, 2011) therefore, in applying the law of inheritance to indonesian residents, we must see which choice of inheritance law is adopted by each indonesian resident and what legal basis applies. (khayati, 2018) people born in indonesia / indonesian occupation that does not apply western civil law can submit themselves voluntarily to western civil law based on staatblad 1917 number 12. testament in the formal sense is a letter or deed, which letter contains information made as evidence, and is generally made with the participation of an official. the official who participates in the making of the testament is generally a notary, however, there are also times that the official in question is another official, as is the case with the making of a testament in an emergency. the testament can also be made without the participation of an official, which is known as a codicil. (dinaryanti, 2013; islami, 2017) the main thing to note in making a testament is that it is a very personal act. this means that the testament cannot and should not be made with the help of a statutory representative, a contractual representative, or another person who declares himself to be a representative. (kuncoro, 2015) in the normal function a testament is an attempt for the testator (the person who makes the testament) to organize his inheritance as desired, so for a will to be valid according to the provisions of the law then according to its content is a statement of will, and the form is in the form of a deed. because of this nature, article 930 of the bw stipulates that in a single deed, two volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 42 – 55 44 | consequences of rejecting the principle… or more persons are not allowed to declare their wills, up for the benefit of any third party for the mutual benefit of each other. for example, there are two husbands and wife, namely a and b, then a as the husband wants to give a will to c, then a goes to the notary asking to make a will for c. the action is certainly beneficial to c. if a wants to revoke his will to c, then of course a cannot revoke it without the consent of a. with this will, it is clear that it cannot be revoked at any time, because there are two parties, namely a and c, whereas the nature of the will is an act that is done unilaterally, and it can be revoked at any time by the maker. if there is such a will, then this will be invalid, article 930 of bw is held to maintain the nature of the will stipulated in article 870 of bw. so, the last will is a unilateral statement of will and a legal act containing an act of transfer of property rights regarding the property of the testator as outlined in a special written form, which can be revoked at any time and only takes effect with the death of the testator and does not need to be notified to the person concerned. a so-called will or testament is a deed containing a person's statement about what he wants to happen after he dies, which can be revoked by him. (marthianus, 2019) the will is made before the testator dies, and is executed after the testator dies. usually, the inheritance is given to the heirs or other people who deviate from the provisions of the law or division according to the law. either without reason or with any reason, the testator can revoke the will that he has made. this is because a will is a one-sided will or statement so that at any time the will can be withdrawn by the maker. article 875 defines the notion of a last will and testament. this expression has two meanings which are meteril and formil, in the material sense the word last will is a gift at the time of death. (talib et al., 2022) in the material sense of the word last will is a gift at the time of death. in the formal sense of the word: a deed fulfills the form required in articles 930 onwards (to the extent not specified by law). basically, or generally, the testator is authorized to stipulate something in his will that deviates from the provisions of the law on inheritance due to death (ab intestato). however, for certain people, the testator is limited in the determination of his last will. the restriction in question applies to heirs in the straight line (such as children and/or their descendants, and parents or other ancestors). they should not be excluded as heirs at all. the law guarantees that straightline heirs, both upwards and downwards, will receive a certain minimum share, which is called the legitieme portie. the part that has been regulated by this law on article 913 of bw, in many cases defeats both wills and grants made by the testator during his lifetime if it is violated or becomes less. reduction or incorting of the heir than other heirs can only occur, if the absolute heirs (legitimaris) or his heirs or if they died earlier than the testator, his successors make a prosecution. (helrina, 2017) the part protected by the law is called legitime portie and its absolute share according to the law must be received by the entitled in full and without being burdened by any conditions whatsoever, even though the conditions are as light as possible, while the heirs who can exercise their rights to the goods protected by the law are called legitimaris or volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 42 – 55 consequences of rejecting the principle... | 45 heirs who have legitime portie, meaning that if as long as the heirs whose shares have been determined in the will do not harm the share that must be received by the legitimaris heirs, the will can be executed, even if the absolute share that must be given to the legitimary heirs is harmed by the testamenter's heirs, it must be returned to the legitimary heirs, according to the share they should get. (kuncoro, 2015) the heir as the owner of the property has the absolute right to regulate whatever he wants on his property, and this is a consequence of inheritance law as a regulatory law. the way that heirs can manage their assets is to bequeath their assets through a will or donate their assets either through a will or not. however, the will or grant may not violate the rights of the person who is an heir by law (ab intestato) because of their blood relationship with the testator. (saji & tedjosaputro, 2020) according to the bw, apart from heirs’ ab intestato, there are heirs by testament (testamentair) who are heirs appointed by a will. (sanjaya, 2018) the law stipulates that certain parts must be accepted by several heirs ab intestato (without a will) because of the close blood relationship with the heir. the law forbids a person during his lifetime to donate or will his assets to others by violating the right of legitieme portie, namely the absolute or smallest part according to the law which must be accepted by the entitled in full and without being burdened with any conditions. the heirs who can exercise their legitimate rights are called legitimaries, as long as the will determined by the testator does not violate and harm the legitimate part, the will can be implemented. if the will violates the absolute share, then it must be returned to the legitimate heirs, according to the share they should get. (izzah et al., 2022; yanti purnawan, 2020) an example of a violation of the legitimate absolute part of legitime portie by the testator is the case of budijono hartono's will and grant. budijono hartono as heir has left a will with a notary deed. at the time of his death, budijono hartono left a wife from his second marriage named vellisia friska, and two legitimate children from the first marriage named irwan hartono and wming hartono, respectively. the will deed made by budijono hartono stipulates that his wife gets 1/3 of the total inheritance. in addition, budijono hartono gave a grant of two plots of land to his wife through the deed of grant. this violates the portie legitimacy of budijono hartono's two legitimate children. therefore, the two children of the late mr. budijono hartono filed a lawsuit for the cancellation of the will and the grant to the court. the court of first instance in its decision number: 206/pdt.g/2019/pn.jkt.brt decided that the deed of will and deed of grant are valid and enforceable. the court of appeals in its decision number 246/pdt/2020/pt dki decided otherwise by canceling the will and deed of grants and ordering all inherited assets to be included in the boedel to be divided. this decision was upheld by the supreme court at the cassation level with decision number 3683/k/pdt/2020. the purpose of this study was to find out and analyze the legal consequences of canceling wills and grant deeds for violating the legitieme portie by conducting a case study on the supreme court's decision number: 3683/k/pdt/2020. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 42 – 55 46 | consequences of rejecting the principle… method the approach method used is normative juridical carried out with scientific research procedures to seek the truth based on the scientific logic of law from a normative side based on the provisions of the law. the main objective is an in-concrito case to test the normative postulates regarding the cancellation of the deed of will for violating the legitieme portie (study of supreme court decision number: 3683/k/pdt/2020). for this reason, researchers must see the law as a closed system that is comprehensive, thorough, and systematic. in addition, in the statutory approach method, researchers need to understand the hierarchy and principles of statutory regulations. thus, the laws and regulations in this study are the laws and regulations regarding the cancellation of wills because they violate the legitieme portie for the study of the supreme court decision number: 3683/k/pdt/2020). researchers carry out investigations by accessing all concrete facts in legal events according to the study, as well as conducting an inventory of positive legal norms that are relevant to concrete events so that they can determine the results of the analysis correctly. searching for relevant facts contained in concrete legal events, as well as searching for abstract legal prescriptions is a technique for gathering information in this research, as well as an analytical technique using syllogistic logic. (irwansyah, 2020) analysis and discussion inheritance by or through a will is mostly supplementary (aanvullend), in addition some are compelling (dwingend), and the last mentioned is for example about the part guaranteed by law or legitieme portie which is often also called the absolute part ex article 913 of bw. (ankie, 2018) the extent to which the legislator determines whether a matter is regulating or compelling has been considered for reasons relating to family law connected, among others, with the will or last will of the deceased (heir). in the law of inheritance according to the bw, several principles can be summarized, including the principle that only rights and obligations in the field of property law can be inherited. the existence of saisine for heirs, namely once heir by itself automatically because the law obtains property rights to all goods. the principle of death, the individual principle, and the bilateral principle. the law recognizes two ways to get an inheritance, namely: ab intestato (heirs by law), testamentair. the conditions for an inheritance to obtain an inheritance must be met, namely terms related to the heir, the death of the heir, in this case, can be divided into (1) the death of the heir is known in fact, (2) death by law. people who have rights/heirs to the inheritance must already exist or still be alive at the time of the death of the testator. the life of the heir is possible in real life, and legally alive. the existence of causes according to the law heirs are not appropriate or prohibited (onwaardig) to receive an inheritance from the testator. article 838 of the bw states that those volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 42 – 55 consequences of rejecting the principle... | 47 who are considered inappropriate to be heirs and therefore excluded from inheritance are those who have been convicted of being blamed for killing or trying to kill the testator, those who by a judge's decision has been blamed for slanderously complaining to the testator, is a complaint of having committed a crime punishable by imprisonment of five years or more severe, by force or act have prevented the testator from making or revoking the will, and who have embezzled, damaged or falsified the testator's will. the law of inheritance in civil law is a certain part of civil law as a whole and is part of the law of property, and therefore only rights and obligations in the form and form of property that constitute inheritance will be inherited by the testator, rights, and obligations in public law, and rights and obligations arising in decency, decency and rights and obligations arising from family relationships cannot be inherited. in the bw there are no specific articles that provide an understanding of what is meant by the law of inheritance. we can only understand as stated in article 830 of the bw, which states that "inheritance only takes place due to death." thus, based on article 830 of the bw, the definition of inheritance law is that without a person who dies (heir), no person inherits (heir) and does not leave the property (inheritance), and there will be no legal event of the heir. although the law in article 832 of the bw has stated that those entitled to become heirs are blood relatives, the provision is still general, because it turns out that not all blood relatives appear together when the testator dies. the law regulates further, regarding who must appear first among the blood relatives, namely by dividing the blood relatives into 4 groups, which appear in turn. if there are still heirs of group i, then people/blood relatives from group ii cannot appear to receive the inheritance, new group ii appears after the heirs of group i are absent, and so on up to group iv. a will testament is a letter containing stipulations of the will of the maker of the will or messages that will only take effect when the maker dies. article 875 of the bw states: "as for the so-called will or testament is a deed containing a statement of a person about what he wants to happen after he dies, and which can be revoked by him. the last will is a unilateral statement of will and a legal act containing a besschikkingshandeling (an act of transferring property rights). so this is a deed, namely a statement made as evidence with the intervention of an official. furthermore, because the testament is a unilateral statement, the testament must be revocable. the most important thing is that the last will as a statement of will is a legal act and therefore an act that aims to cause legal consequences. types of will which contain "erfstelliing" or will of appointment of inheritance, and containing a bequest legaat. in principle, people have the freedom to regulate what will happen to their property after they die. an heir has the freedom to revoke the inheritance rights of his heirs, because although there are provisions in the act that determine who will inherit his estate and how much each share, the provisions of the distribution are regulatory law, thus resulting in the loss of the right of a share of an heir ab intestato. however, for some heirs ab intestato or without a will, by the act held a certain share to be received by them, so it is a share that is protected by the law, because so volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 42 – 55 48 | consequences of rejecting the principle… close their family relationship with the testator so that the legislator considers it inappropriate if they do not receive anything at all. so that people do not easily exclude them, the law prohibits a person during his lifetime to grant or bequeath his property to others in violation of the rights of the ab intestato heirs. the provision on legitieme portie is not in the public interest but rather it exists for the benefit of the legitimary. therefore, the legitimary can allow his rights to be violated, which is closely related to the opinion that the violation of the legitieme portie does not result in nietigheid or nullity for the sake of the law. legitieme portie is an absolute part owned by blood heirs and cannot be reduced by anyone including the testator. heirs in the line down, if the testator leaves only one legitimate child according to article 914 of the bw is ½ of his share according to the law, if leaving two legitimate children, then the amount of the absolute share is 2/3 of the share according to the law and the statutory share of the two legitimate children, while if leaving three or more legitimate children, then the amount of the absolute share is ¾ of the share of the heirs according to the provisions of the law. they are not entitled (non legitimaris) because they are in the lateral line. whether or not the calculation based on legitieme portie is used depends on whether or not there is a grant of testament that can be executed. the case began when a deed of testament was made in front of a notary by the late mr. budijono hartono where the contents of the deed of testament were that the testator gave too much of his inheritance to the heirs of mrs. vellisia friska, the wife of the second marriage with the testator, namely as the first defendant. the deceased mr. budijono hartono had two biological children from his previous marriage, namely irwan hartono and wming hartono as the plaintiffs. the testamentary deed made by the testator in front of a notary was argued by the plaintiffs that the testamentary deed was null and void insofar as it related to the civil partnership referred to by the testator. the plaintiffs claim that according to the deed of testament, there was a violation of the legitieme portie of the heirs because the testator gave all of his assets to the first respondent. therefore, the plaintiffs demanded the annulment of the testament deed made by the testator in front of a notary. in principle, those who are entitled to become heirs are people who have blood family relations, both legal under the law and outside of marriage, and the husband or wife who has lived the longest according to article 832 of the bw. in this case, budijono hartono's legitimate children, namely irwan hartono and wming hartono, and budijono hartono's wife, vellisia friska, are the heirs. in the civil inheritance law, a principle applies, namely if a person dies (heir), then by law and immediately his rights and obligations pass to his heirs, as long as these rights and obligations are included in property law or other words the rights and obligations liabilities that can be valued in money. according to article 833 of the bw, the heirs by law automatically get ownership rights over all goods, all rights, and all receivables of the deceased. thus, irwan hartono, wming volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 42 – 55 consequences of rejecting the principle... | 49 hartono, and vellisia friska have the right to the inheritance of the late budijono hartono, wills are important because disputes between heirs regarding inheritance can be avoided with the last message. based on article 875 of the bw, a will is a deed containing a statement of a person about what he wants that will happen after he dies and by which it can be revoked. the making of the deed of will number 2 dated december 3, 2015, caused problems because, in addition to withdrawing and revoking the previous will, vellisia friska was also appointed as a separate heir for 1/3 part of the entire estate of the late budijono hartono. the inheritance of 1/3 part is contrary to article 852a of the bw where if the marriage of husband and wife is for the second or subsequent time, and from a previous marriage there were children or descendants of those children, the wife or new husband will not get a share. an inheritance that is greater than the smallest part of the inheritance that one of the children will receive. based on the deed of will number two dated december 3, 2015, by receiving 1/3 of the share, vellisia friska received the same share as the two legitimate children of the late budijono hartono as legitimate heirs and this is contrary to article 852a of the bw. the judges of the high court and the supreme court then decided that the deed of will no. 2 dated december 3, 2015, was null and void and had no legal force because it violated the legitieme portie of the legitimate heirs. the proportion or share claimed by vellisia friska is getting bigger with the deed of grant number 250/2016 and the deed of grant number 251/2016 based on the deed of self-bidding agreement to implement the grant number: 16 dated october 14, 2016, which transferred the rights to two parcels of land from above. budijono hartono's name became in the name of vellisia friska. these deeds were also declared null and void and had no legal force because, by receiving this grant, vellisia friska received a larger share of the legitimate heirs, thus violating the legitieme portie of the legitimate heirs. this is under article 920 of the bw which stipulates that gifts or grants, both between those who are still alive and by will, which is detrimental to the part of the legitimation portie, may be reduced at the time the inheritance is opened, but only at the request of their legislators and heirs or their successors. based on these matters, the decision of the judex facti/high court of dki jakarta which was upheld by the decision of the supreme court through decision number 3683/k/pdt/2020 decided all disputed assets according to the deed of will number 2 dated december 3, 2015, the deed of self-binding agreement to implement grant number: 16 dated october 14, 2016, deed of grant number 250/2016 and deed of grant number 251/2016, along with other assets that are recognized as personal property of vellisia friska but cannot be proven to be included in the inheritance certificate. the author's analysis of the supreme court decision number: 3683/k/pdt/2020. in this case, it began when a deed of testament was made in front of a notary by the late mr. budijono hartono where the contents of the deed of testament were that the testator gave too much of his inheritance to the heirs of mrs. vellisia friska, the wife of the second marriage with the testator, volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 42 – 55 50 | consequences of rejecting the principle… namely as the first defendant. the deceased mr. budijono hartono had two biological children from his previous marriage, namely irwan hartono and wming hartono as the plaintiffs. the testamentary deed made by the testator in front of a notary was argued by the plaintiffs that the testamentary deed was null and void insofar as it related to the civil partnership referred to by the testator. the plaintiffs claim that according to the deed of testament, there was a violation of the legitieme portie of the heirs because the testator gave all of his assets to the first respondent. therefore, the plaintiffs demanded the annulment of the testament deed made by the testator in front of a notary. the law of inheritance allows the heirs to determine how to distribute the inheritance that deviates from the law of inheritance. this is a natural thing considering that in essence, a person who owns the property has the full right to treat his property according to his wishes, for that the heir deserves honor and to the last. this aims to avoid unwanted things, namely the occurrence of inheritance disputes between fellow heirs. the last will of the testator may want the distribution of inheritance that is not fair according to the feelings of the heirs or unfair according to the applicable law. for this reason, the law of inheritance regulates and limits so that the heirs are not harmed. the act of determining the last inheritance is called a testament or will. thus, the will is made before the testator dies, which is executed after the testator dies. usually, the inheritance is given to the heirs or other people who deviate from the provisions of the law or distribution according to the law. either without reason or for any reason, the testator can revoke the will that he has made. this is because the will is a one-sided will or statement so that at any time the will can be withdrawn by the maker. the heir based on the testament deed number 2 dated december 3, 2015, namely mrs. vellisia friska on october 14, 2016, came to a notary named mrs. hj. titiek febriyanti utami marwan, bachelor of laws to make a deed of agreement to bind herself to carry out the granting of the entire inheritance of the testator to her, namely mrs. vellisia friska. then on december 23, 2016, grant deed number 250/2016 and grant deed number 251/2016 were made before mrs. titiek febriyanti utami marwan, bachelor of laws in her capacity as a land deed official (ppat) where the grant deed is in the name of mrs. vellisia friska. this is what causes the legitimate children of the testator, namely mr. irwan hartono and mr. wming untung hartono who are legitimate descendants or straight-line descendants down according to the law from the testator, to be more entitled to all the testator's property. they then filed a lawsuit at the west jakarta district court against mrs. vellisia friska as the defendant, mrs. hj titiek utami, marwan, bachelor of laws, notary and ppat in jakarta as the first defendant, mrs. merry susanti siaril, bachelor of laws, notary in jakarta as the second defendant, the ministry of agrarian affairs and spatial planning/national land agency of west jakarta administrative city land office as the third defendant and pt agung podomoro land, tbk, as the fourth defendant. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 42 – 55 consequences of rejecting the principle... | 51 the plaintiffs included letter evidence indicating that the plaintiffs, mr. irwan hartono and mr. wming untung hartono, proved that they were the legitimate children of the testator. the legitimate children of the testator filed a lawsuit arguing that the testamentary deed made by the testator, namely the late mr. budijono hartono with a testamentary deed number 2 dated december 3, 2015, made before a notary named mrs. merry susanti siaril, bachelor of laws is null and void because it has violated the absolute rights of legitieme portie of the testator's legitimate children. in this case, the bw protects the rights of the legitimate children of the testator or straightline descendants according to law, against a will that has violated the rights of legitimary heirs to inherit, to get an absolute share legitieme portie because of the legitimary's close relationship with the testator so that legitimary rights need to be protected by law from the actions of the testator in making a will, (royani, 2015) because based on the provisions in article 913 of the bw, the absolute part or part of the inheritance according to the law is a part of the inheritance that must be given to legitimate children (straight line down) and biological parents (straight line up), (israfil et al., 2023) so that the testator does not easily make or stipulate something according to his will, whether it is in the form of a grant that has been given to someone or more or in the form of a will. with the absolute part by the bw act, which is a rule that limits the testator to his last will against the testator's estate. as for legitimaries, the law has guaranteed them as heirs who are protected by their absolute hat to also get a share of the testator's estate, that the legitimary will receive a certain minimum share, namely the share that has been guaranteed by the law or the absolute share of legitieme portie. this absolute part defeats both wills and grants that have been or have been made by the testator which results in a lack of absolute part of legitieme portie. since the testator made a testament before mrs. merry susanti siaril, bachelor of laws in her capacity as a notary which contained all the assets of the inheritance given to mrs. vellisia friska, where according to the will of the testator that the children of the testator since the making of the will are no longer heirs, but according to civil law article 929 they are heirs in which case the legitimate children of the testator according to the law must file a lawsuit to get absolute rights? legitieme portie from the will that has been made by the testator. the law gives the legitimate children of the testator the right to file a lawsuit against the will that has violated their rights as heirs. if the provisions in the will or testament violate the legitieme portie of legitimate children, then the will is not null and void, because although the provisions regarding the absolute rights of legitimaries are coercive law not in the public interest, therefore legitimaries can allow their rights to be violated. violation of the absolute right of legitieme portie, resulting in the will can be requested to be canceled simply, in other words, cannot be executed. if the legitimary claims his rights in the will, and does not accept the violation contained in the will, then the provisions in the will that violate his absolute rights are unenforceable. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 42 – 55 52 | consequences of rejecting the principle… legal effects of cancellation of deed of testament for violating legitieme portie is all the property of a person who has died belongs to all his heirs according to the law, so that only against it by a will he has not taken a valid provision. starting from the sound of the article above, it appears that the person who dies must first be seen whether the person at the time of his life made a will. if it turns out that the testator during his lifetime did not make a will, then the inheritance is divided based on the law of inheritance according to law or ab intesto. conversely, if the testator leaves a will, then the calculation certainly deviates from the calculation according to the law of inheritance according to law or ab intesto. to safeguard the efforts of the heirs not to be harmed by the existence of a will, the legislator established an institution called legitieme portie (absolute share). the absolute part of the law must be received by the full right and without being burdened by any conditions. people have the freedom to regulate what will happen to their property after they die. (moechthar, 2017) a testator has the freedom to revoke the inheritance rights of his heirs, because although there are provisions in the law that determine who will inherit the inheritance and how much each part is, the provisions of the divisions are regulatory law and not imposing law, thus the loss of the right to part of an ab intestato heir. to keep the efforts of the heirs from being harmed by the existence of a will, the absolute part of the law must be received by the rightful full and unencumbered by any conditions. the legal consequences of the determination of heirs who violate the provisions of the determination of the absolute part or legitieme portie have long been discussed/debated by legal experts, there are also several judicial decisions (rechtsbank, hof and/or h.r) netherlands. some assume that the clause is not written, some argue that it can be canceled by the judge and some are completely void (van rechtswege nietig). the supreme court of the dutch east indies in its decision dated november 5, 1936, 537, has ruled that "a testamentary provision, to the extent that it causes the violation of a person's absolute share, is by law void. supreme court decision number 3683/k/pdt/2020 is a decision regarding a testamentary deed made by the testator during his lifetime to the defendant in this decision which disturbs part of the inheritance that must be given to the plaintiff. the granting of the will made by the grantor of the inheritance is contrary to the applicable legislation. because the granting of the inheritance has violated the absolute portion or legitieme portie of other inheritances. the absolute right of the plaintiff in this decision who is a legitimate heir is not fulfilled. (anisah et al., 2019; muzakir, 2022) the inheritance made by the testator to the defendant in supreme court decision number 3683/k/pdt/2020 must not interfere with the part of the inheritance that must be given to the plaintiff. this is as contained in article 920 of the burgelijke wetboek which states that gifts or grants, either between living persons or by will, which is detrimental to the legitieme portie, may be reduced at the time of the opening of the inheritance, but only at the request of the legitimaries volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 42 – 55 consequences of rejecting the principle... | 53 and their heirs or their successors. however, the legitimaries may not enjoy any benefit from the reduction to the detriment of those who are indebted to the testator. conclusion legitieme portie is the absolute right of the heirs' ab intestato to get property from the heirs which are not violated by other heirs. thus, the other heirs are not allowed to get a larger share of the heirs' ab intestato even though it is through a will or a grant. if the will or grant causes a violation of the legitieme portie, then the court will cancel the will or grant and include all assets in the boedel inheritance to be divided among the heirs under the provisions of the law. the inheritance made by the testator to the defendant in supreme court decision number 3683/k/pdt/2020 must not interfere with the part of the estate that must be given to the plaintiff. this is as contained in article 920 of the burgelijke wetboek (bw) which states that gifts or grants, either between living persons or by will, which is detrimental to the legitieme portie, may be reduced at the time of the opening of the inheritance, but only at the request of the legitimaries and their heirs or their successors. however, the legitimaries may not enjoy anything from the reduction to the detriment of those who owe the testator. the actions taken by the heir, namely the late mr. budijono hartono, where the late mr. budijono hartono had given all of his inheritance to the defendant mrs. vellisia friska without regard to the absolute rights or legitieme portie of the rights of other heirs, namely the plaintiff party who was the biological child of the late heir budijono hartono, and this is certainly contrary to the aspect of the contents of the will as stated in article 913 of the bw, where the will may not interfere with or reduce the absolute share of the legitimary. reference abubakar, f.

normatively, not sociology.24 law as a norm system whose statements emphasize the supposed ideal or das sollen aspects, by conveying some rules about what must be done. norms are born as a product and deliberative human action. laws that contain general rules are a guideline for individuals behaving in society, both in relationships with fellow individuals and in relation to society. the rule becomes a limit for the community in burdening or taking action against individuals, then the existence of the rule and the implementation of the rule raises legal certainty.25 the legal theory used in analyzing this paper is the theory of legal certainty, namely regarding a particular (condition), provisions, or provisions. the law must be absolutely specific and fair, certainly as a guideline of conduct and fair because the code of conduct must support an order that is considered reasonable. only because it is appropriate and carried out with certainty the law can carry out its functions. normative legal certainty is when specific regulations are made and promulgated because they regulate clearly and logically, clearly, in the sense of not raising doubts and logical. clearly, in the sense that it becomes a norm system with other norms so that they do not clash or cause norm conflicts. legal certainty refers to the implementation of transparent, permanent, consistent and consistent laws whose application cannot be influenced by subjective circumstances. confidence and justice are not just moral demands but factually characterize the law. a law that is uncertain and does not want to be fair is not only bad.26 related to the above theory, the application of the principle of openness in the appointment of a proper village apparatus in cileuleuy village, cigugur sub district, kuningan regency, has been regulated in article 48 – 53 of law no. 6 of 2014. the law explains that the village apparatus is appointed from villagers who fulfill the requirements, namely: a) the lowest educated public high school or equivalent; b) aged 20 years to 42 years; c) registered as a resident of the village and residing in the village at least one year before registration; and d) other conditions specified in the regulations of regency/city. further provisions regarding the village apparatus are regulated in district/city regional regulations based on government regulations.

implementation 172 | 1) legal factors. the law functions to achieve justice, certainty and expediency. in practice in carrying out law in the field there are times when there is a conflict between legal certainty and justice. legal certainty is concrete tangible, whereas justice is abstract so that when a judge decides on a case by applying the law alone, there are times when the value of justice is not achieved. so when seeing a problem about the law at least justice is a top priority. because law is not merely seen from the perspective of written law. 2) law enforcement factors. in the functioning of the law, the mentality or personality of law enforcement apparatus an important role, if the rules are good, but the quality of apparatus is not good, there is a problem. during this time there is a strong tendency among the public to interpret the law as an officer or law enforcer, meaning that the law is identified with the real behavior of the officer or law enforcer. unfortunately in carrying out their authority, problems often arise because attitudes or treatments that are seen as exceeding the authority or other actions that are considered to fade the image and authority of law enforcement. this is due to the low quality of the law enforcement apparatus. 3) factors supporting facilities or facilities. factors supporting facilities or facilities include software and hardware. law enforcers cannot work properly if they are not equipped with vehicles and proportional communication devices. therefore, facilities or facilities have a very important role in law enforcement. without these facilities or facilities, it is not possible for law enforcement to harmonize their roles with their actual roles. 4) community factors. law enforcement comes from the community and aims to achieve peace in the community. every citizen or group more or less has legal awareness. the problem that arises is the level of legal compliance, namely high, moderate, or poor legal compliance. the degree of community legal compliance with the law, is one indicator of the functioning of the law in question. 5) cultural factors. culture basically includes the values that underlie applicable law, which values are abstract conceptions of what is considered good (so obeyed) and what is considered bad (so avoided). therefore, indonesian culture is the basis or underlying customary law. besides that also applies written law, which is formed by certain groups in society who have the power and authority for it. the law must be able to reflect the values that form the basis of customary law, so that the law can be actively applied. factors that hinder or influence the process of recruiting a good village apparatus in cileuleuy village, cigugur sub-district, kuningan regency based on law no. 6 of 2014 and soerjono soekanto’s theory of effectiveness benchmarks in law enforcement can be explained as the results of the following research:28 28interview with mr. nendi suhendi, head of cileuleuy village. monday, august 12, 2019, at 09.30 wib. volume 2, issue 2, december 2019 : 161 176 recruitment of village apparatus in the regions and implementation | 173 1) legal factors, namely the existence of laws and regulations governing the process of recruiting village apparatus in the form of law no. 6 of 2014, minister of home affairs regulation no. 83 of 2015, and regional regulation of kuningan regency no. 11 of 201529 concerning organizational structure and administration of village governments. these laws and regulations relate to the process of recruiting village apparatus in cileuleuy village, cigugur sub-district, kuningan regency. 2) law enforcement factors, namely the village head as the legal implementer in the process of recruiting village apparatuses and the village consultative body as the supervisor of the village apparatus recruitment process. in connection with this research, law enforcement is carried out by the village head and the village consultative body (bpd) of cileuleuy village, cigugur sub-district, kuningan regency. but in the implementation there are obstacles where the village head is more likely to use a family or kinship system in the selection of village apparatus. in addition, bpd as the village government supervisor has not been able to carry out its functions optimally, especially in overseeing the performance of the village head in appointing village apparatus. 3) factors of supporting facilities or facilities, namely the presence of computers, vehicles, and communication devices that support the recruitment process of the village apparatus based on law no. 6 of 2014. however, in practice, the village government has not been able to maximize the facilities/facilities that are owned to better support the recruitment process of the village apparatus in cileuleuy village, cigugur sub-district, kuningan regency as social media and internet have not been used to socialize village apparatus recruitment. 4) community factors, namely the contribution or participation of the community in the process of recruiting village apparatus based on law no. 6 of 2014. in connection with this study, the community in cileuleuy village, cigugur sub district, kuningan regency did not participate and contributed in the process of recruiting village apparatus. the attitude of the community still uses the traditional mindset, customs, habits of the people. the lack of community participation in this matter is related to the orderly implementation of the village government. many people do not care or can be said to be indifferent to the activities carried out by the village government. in addition, the majority of community education in the basic education category (elementary and junior high school graduates) also influences community participation and contribution in the process of recruiting village apparatus in cileuluy village. 29regional regulation of kuningan regency number 11 of 2015 concerning organizational structure and administration of village governments. regional gazette of kuningan regency, number 11 series d of 2015. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ volume 2, issue 2, december 2019 : 161 176 recruitment of village apparatus in the regions and implementation 174 | 5) cultural factors, namely the culture of the local community that influence the process of recruiting village apparatus. in connection with this research, cultural factors that influence the recruitment process of the village apparatus in cileuleuy village, cigugur sub-district, kuningan regency are feeling of insecurity, as many villagers do not want to become village apparatus because they feel they are less capable. insecurity can make a person unsure of his abilities so it is difficult to explore and bring up his potential. this makes it difficult for people to develop because they themselves do not want to develop in accordance with their potential. conclusion based on the discussion, it can be drawn some conclusions that are also the core of this research, namely: the regulation and implementation in the appointment of the village apparatus in kuningan regency based on law no. 6 of 2014, regional regulation of kuningan regency no. 13 of 2015, and kuningan regent regulation no. 73 of 2015. the factors that hinder or influence the process of recruiting a good village apparatus in cileuleuy village, cigugur sub-district, kuningan regency include several things, namely: village heads are more likely to use a family or kinship system in the selection of village apparatuses; bpd has not been able to carry out its functions to the maximum; the use of social media or the internet is not yet used to socialize the recruitment of village apparatus; community attitudes still use the traditional mindset, customs, community habits and education, the majority in the basic education category; and cultural factors where the community tends to feel insecure about being a village apparatus because they feel less able. suggestion based on the conclusions that have been described, the researcher submits several suggestions for related parties as follows: the community must actively participate and cooperate appropriately by participating in activities carried out by the village government, including in the process of appointing village apparatus. the village government needs to conduct broader and more comprehensive dissemination related to the operation of selecting village apparatus through print and electronic media so that the community can obtain sufficient information about the implementation of village apparatus recruitment. besides, it is necessary to avoid a familial/kinship approach in the process of appointing village apparatus. the regional government must strive to conduct training and outreach activities to the community related to their roles and participation to increase their confidence and quality in the administration of fair and prosperous village governance. volume 2, issue 2, december 2019 : 161 176 recruitment of village apparatus in

(kosandi & wahono, 2020; lele, 2019) on this basis, an electoral https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ mailto:rizkiramadani@umi.ac.id http://dx.doi.org/10.56087/substantivejustice.v6i1.230 volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 56 – 70 judicial activism in regional… | 57 governance system is needed to ensure the implementation of elections is not only in accordance with procedures, but also fair and obedient to the principles (hartlyn et al., 2008). this includes the establishment of an independent election committee and regulations that guarantee this independence (nelson, 2023; ramadani, 2020), ensuring that elections are conducted in compliance with appropriate legal procedures, including the provision of a dispute resolution mechanism that ensures legal certainty and justice (mozaffar & schedler, 2002). regional head elections should be celebrated as a democratic party for every local community as an essential democratic ritual. however, it is impossible to deny that the regional head election is also a political struggle that brings together prospective regional heads with diverse perspectives and objectives. regional head elections, which are designed to set ideas against each other, frequently devolve into a contest of financial capacities or a struggle of followers, resulting in horizontal conflict. this is exacerbated by the proliferation of money-politics (hidayaturrahman et al., 2022), clientelism (bakker, 2021; mahsun et al., 2021), and patronage in regional head election (lewis, 2020). the implementation of regional head elections in various regions in indonesia was accompanied by various violations, both committed by election organizers, regional head candidate participants and their masses of supporters (kusdarini et al., 2022). in its development, various violating practices in the post-conflict local election have resulted in regional head election disputes. since it was first held on june 1, 2005, the holding of regional head elections has almost always been followed by lawsuits over regional head and deputy regional head election disputes (firmanto et al., 2021). for example, out of around 270 regional head elections that were held during 2020, there were 132 post-conflict local election results being challenged at the constitutional court. in the construction of indonesian law, disputes in elections are divided into two categories: process disputes and election result disputes. according to article 466 of law number 7 of 2017 concerning general elections (election law), process disputes are disputes that occur between election participants and disputes between election participants and election organizers as a result of the issuance of decisions by the general election commission (kpu), provincial kpu, and regency/city kpu. meanwhile, disputes over general election results are regulated in article 473; in this context, they are defined as disputes between the regional head election administration and participants regarding the determination of the vote acquisition of post-conflict local election results. in practice, the mechanism for resolving disputes over post-conflict local election results has experienced a change in the legal regime. in the early stages of democratization, post-conflict local election disputes were handled by the supreme court (ma) as the executor of judicial power as mandated in law number 32 of 2004 concerning regional government. the authority to decide post-conflict local election disputes (disputes over post-conflict local election results) is only volume 6, issue 1, june 2022: 56 – 70 58 | judicial activism in regional… owned by the constitutional court after the third amendment to the regional government law (law number 12 of 2008). (ayuni, 2018; junaidi, 2010). initially, the handling of disputes over regional head election results by the constitutional court drew sharp criticism from various groups. this criticism targets the narrow interpretation of the constitutional court on the meaning of the phrase "election results" which is only interpreted as "a dispute regarding the determination of election results carried out nationally by the general election committee (kpu)". this has resulted in the nickname "calculator court" for the constitutional court, which solely assesses the suitability of the process of determining the vote count results of election participants by the organizers. but neglected to examine allegations of violations that occurred during the electoral process. thus, the court only relies on quantitative indicators (number of votes) in handling the election disputes, no longer as a judicial power whose duty is to guard the quality of democracy as mandated by the constitution. on its journey, this view slowly faded along with the progressiveness of the constitutional court's decisions on how regional head election disputes were handled. for example, in the 2008 east java regional head election dispute decision (decision number 41/phpu.dvi/2008, december 2, 2008), the constitutional court ordered re-voting in two districts (bangkalan regency and sampang regency) and a recount of the votes in pamekasan regency because it was considered that there had been structured, systematic, and massive violations. this decision is also the first time the constitutional court has ordered a re-voting and recount of votes. if we look at the considerations of the decision, the judges seem to eager to counter the previous accusation that the constitutional court is not a "calculator court" that can be confined by a narrow interpretation of the law, but that it still has the dignity of being the guardian of the constitution and democratic values, so it is appropriate to question the aspect of electoral justice (reininda, 2021b). the progressivity of the constitutional court's authority in deciding disputes over election results, especially regional head elections, continues to grow rapidly. decisions similar to the east java regional head election have been issued by the constitutional court, which is considered to have contributed a lot to the development of democracy in indonesia. this was done by the court by correcting the implementation of the election, which was not limited to determining the results of the general election (procedural democracy), but also the process of voting and counting (conversion) of votes by determining the qualifications for a structured, massive, and systematic violation. in other words, there was a legal breakthrough made by the court to ensure that the vote results as determined by the general election commission were in accordance with the will of the people without any manipulation, intimidation, or cajoling that could harm the true meaning of democracy (substantial democracy) (kartabrata, 2022). when compared to the 2004 disputes over legislative election results, constitutional court judges used a procedural justice approach. different things can be seen in a number of volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 56 – 70 judicial activism in regional… | 59 disputed decisions on regional head election results in 2009, where the constitutional court tended to use a substantial justice approach by questioning electoral process violations (election offenses). this step was not free from controversy and was even considered to have exceeded the limits of the constitutional court's authority (ultra vires and ultra petita) (ali et al., 2016). on the other hand, this kind of phenomenon has also given rise to speculation about the existence of a judicial activism movement by the constitutional court (mietzner, 2010). based on the background of the issues above, this article attempts to analyze two problems: first, what are the efforts of judge activism carried out by the constitutional court in the context of post-conflict local election disputes; and second, what is the consistency of the judge's activism in the context of the 2020 simultaneous local elections? based on the author's investigation, there have been several studies conducted related to the topic of the activism of constitutional court judges, including writings from pan mohamad faiz, which address the dimensions of the judicial activism of the constitutional court to protect citizens' constitutional rights through their decisions (faiz, 2016a). in addition, there is an article from prabowo, which outlines the importance of judge activism by the constitutional court in decisions regarding the presidential threshold (prabowo, 2022), and rofiq and hamidah who discussed the same topic but in the context of the constitutional court's decision on children out of wedlock (rofiq & hamidah, 2021). in comparison, dramanda has actually initiated an idea that contrasts with the studies mentioned earlier, namely judicial restraint which should be formalized within the institution of the constitutional court (dramanda, 2016). in terms of originality, no studies have been found that specifically discuss judicial activism in the context of regional election disputes and, at the same time, evaluate the consistency of the constitutional court’s activism in deciding disputes in simultaneous regional elections. in fact, this issue is quite important and relevant to assess how far the authority of the constitutional court has developed in deciding regional head election disputes, does it continue to experience progressiveness or even become degressive? departing from this urgency, this study intends to offer a new perspective on filling the gap. method as legal research, this study utilizes secondary data obtained from literature studies on legal material, which includes primary legal material in the form of relevant laws and regulations and judge's decisions, as well as secondary legal material, which includes journal articles and previous research results. data analysis uses a conceptual approach and a case approach. conceptually, this study seeks to formulate parameters or criteria based on the theory of judicial activism to analyze and justify the decisions of the constitutional court in a number of cases that meet these criteria. furthermore, the existing parameters will be an indicator of the consistency of the substance of decisions in election dispute cases in the 2020 simultaneous local elections. volume 6, issue 1, june 2022: 56 – 70 60 | judicial activism in regional… in terms of its nature, this research is descriptive-analytical in nature and seeks to describe the form of activism of constitutional court judges in post-conflict local election disputes and analyze its consistency in simultaneous regional head election disputes in 2020. analysis and discussion a. judicial activism and its practice by the constitutional court in the regional head election disputes based on a literature search, the concept of judicial activism was popular in the 20th century but was known long before. according to kmiec, who specifically researched the origins of judicial activism, the term was first coined by arthur schlesinger, an american historian, public intellectual, and social observer, in 1947 in an article in fortune magazine (josev, 2017; kmiec, 2004). from various literature searches, formulating a definite and representative definition of the term judicial activism is not an easy matter. according to bolick, everyone has their own take on the phenomena of judicial activism. he then gives a reasonably clear description, namely, the situation in which the court invalidates a statute that breaches individual rights or the constitutional restrictions of other branches of government (bolick, 1994). thirlway, for example, proposed a more general definition in his paper titled 'judicial activism and the international court of justice', stating that judicial activism refers to the approach used by judges in handling a case by maximizing the function of judges as lawmakers with a logical interpretation and (if necessary) goes beyond an authentic interpretation of the law in favor of something more substantive (thirlway, 2022). he went on to say that activist judges are those who still believe that the duty of the court is to proclaim laws, not to make them. however, under specific conditions, they will not hesitate to broaden or direct the meaning of the law in order to obtain the desired result. this is done because activist judges are dissatisfied with the current rules and regulations, or if it is determined that there is a legal vacuum, and they are always ready to make the required legal breakthroughs as the foundation for their rulings (thirlway, 2022). the judicial activism movement is a prominent school of thought in anglo-american and indian countries because of its ability to accomplish substantive justice rather than justice according to the law (procedural justice), which is frequently selective and arbitrary on the side of the populace. societal minorities and marginalized groups (amarini, 2019). an understanding of judicial activism can also be compared with the idea of judicial restraint as its antithesis. in contrast to the idea of judicial activism, which supports the freedom of judges to make decisions based on their beliefs, judicial restraint emphasizes that judges must refrain from positioning themselves as legislators and only interpret what is necessary according to a doctrinal or formalistic justice approach (king, 2008). volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 56 – 70 judicial activism in regional… | 61 nonetheless, many people believe that the notion of judicial restraint, as opposed to judicial activism, dominates the arena of justice in indonesia. this is due in part to the indonesian legal system, which is typical of civil law and in which judges support the bouch do loi concept, therefore judges choose to refrain and refuse to take on legislative obligations in enacting laws. meanwhile, judicial activism in the civil law legal system is undemocratic and breaches the principle of separation of powers (rodríguez-garavito, 2011). on the one hand, this kind of attitude is good for avoiding abuse of power by judges who take over legislative authority as positive legislatures (buana, 2020; claus & kay, 2010), but on the other hand, excessive restrictions can result in the judge's decision being dry with progressive considerations and far from true justice. in the context of indonesian constitutional courts, judges apply the trend of the two perspectives above in deciding various cases involving disputes over regional head election results. the first inclination is for judges to refrain from interpreting anything other than what is stated in the terms of the laws and regulations, both materially and formally; in this case, the judges emphasize procedural or formalistic justice (restrictive judges). second, in some situations, judges behave as activists, abandoning formal legal rules in order to achieve far more important aims (active judges). in practice, judicial activism is frequently praised since it frequently breaks the deadlock between a handful of constitutional issues, and activism decisions are frequently become landmark decisions (faiz, 2016b). in the context of regional head election dispute resolution at the constitutional court, the practice of judicial activism is reflected in several decisions. one of the phenomenal is constitutional court decision no. 41/phpu.d-vi/2008 concerning disputes over the results of the general election of regional heads of east java, dated february 2, 2008. in this case of dispute over the results of the regional head elections, the constitutional court did not determine the correct vote count results, according to the court, but instead issued a decision that ordered the counting of votes and re-voting in several designated electoral districts. this is the first time the constitutional court has done this in the context of an election dispute. the activism side of the judges' decision on the dispute over the east java regional head election can be seen in the judge's considerations when making the decision, which were not based on mere differences in the number of votes as stipulated in the legislation but on the judge's belief that a structured, massive violation had occurred and systematically in the voting process, which has an impact on vote acquisition. thus, for the first time, judges have stepped out of the corridors of their authority by considering other aspects apart from the problem of the vote count. in fact, the provisions of the legislation at that time, namely law no. 32 of 2004 concerning regional government, law no. 22 of 2007 concerning general election organizers, and government regulation no. 6 of 2005 concerning election, confirmation of appointment, and dismissal of regional heads and deputy regional heads, volume 6, issue 1, june 2022: 56 – 70 62 | judicial activism in regional… stipulate that if there is a violation in the general election process, it must be resolved through the district or city supervisory committee. if the violation contains a criminal element, it must be forwarded to the investigator. referring to the provisions of the existing laws and regulations, the court actually has no authority to try the case based on the fact that there was a violation in the election process. nevertheless, the judges are of the view that the prohibition to deal with cases of violations and criminal acts in regional head elections must mean that the constitutional court may not carry out the functions of criminal justice or administrative justice but may still examine and adjudicate any violations in the administration of elections, which includes the process of collecting and counting votes, which affect the vote count result. furthermore, the judge attempted to legitimize his considerations by quoting radbruch's view that, as guardian of the constitution, the court must not allow formal-procedural provisions (procedural justice) to hinder the achievement of greater justice (substantive justice). the aforementioned situation demonstrates that judges have dared to leave conventional interpretations of the legal constraints on their jurisdiction in favor of interpretations that, in their opinion, can achieve larger purposes. nonetheless, many parties claimed that the ruling exceeded the constitutional court's authority and went beyond the scope of the claims filed (ultra petita) (harijanti, 2010). even the constitutional court's decision can be said to have castrated the authority of the oversight committee and investigators who have the authority to handle election administrative and criminal offenses. this phenomenon at the same time confirms one of the characteristics of judicial activism as stated by canon, namely the existence of dimensions specificity of policy (cohn & kremnitzer, 2016), whereby the constitutional court judges, in their decisions, formed their own paradigm to decide based on violations in the process of administering elections that broke through the principle of discretion or authority possessed by other institutions, in this case the election supervisory committee and investigators. in several subsequent decisions, the mk judges attempted to clarify this matter as stated in the considerations of decision number 190/phpu.d-viii/2010 concerning the regional head election of pandeglang regency. in this decision, the judge stated that the cancellation of the election results or regional head election due to structured, systematic, and massive violations had absolutely no intention of taking over the authority of another judicial body. the judge argued on the argument that the court only took those violations that were proven to have an impact on the results of the regional head election but still limited itself from imposing criminal or administrative sanctions on the perpetrators (kasim et al., 2021). the same thing is also reflected in the case of the regional head election dispute in kota waringin regency. in decision number 45/phpu.d-viii/2010, the constitutional court again reaped pros and cons because it disqualified one of the candidate pairs for regent and volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 56 – 70 judicial activism in regional… | 63 deputy regent and ordered the election organizers, in this case the general election commission of west kotawaringin regency, to issue a decree stipulating the other candidate pairs as elected regent and deputy regent. usually, the constitutional court's decision only disqualifies candidates who are suspected of committing violations and orders a re-vote, but in this case, the court went even further by designating one of the parties as the winner of the regional head elections. the main rationalization of the trial judges was that there had been structured, systematic, and massive violations in almost the entire area of west kotawaringin regency committed by the disqualified candidate pairs. the violation was so serious that it had a systemic and massive impact on democracy and undermined the principles of direct, general, free, confidential, honest, and fair elections. referring to the provisions of article 24c of the 1945 constitution and article 10 paragraph (1) letter d of law no. 24 of 2003 concerning the constitutional court, it is clear that the constitutional court does not have the authority to determine the winner of regional head elections but only determines the results of the correct vote count according to the constitutional court. this was solely done by the judge with the consideration of avoiding a legal vacuum while guaranteeing legal certainty for the community regarding the winner of the regional head election in west kotawaringin. based on the results of noorwahidah's analysis, the constitutional court's decision was the result of the judges' effort to produce greater benefit for society (noorwahidah, 2010). another noteworthy aspect of the two activism decisions above is the emergence of the terms structured, systematic, and massive in the consideration of the decisions. this is important because such violations become a stepping stone for judges to decide disputes over regional head election results with nuances of activism. the parameters regarding these structured, systematic, and massive violations have not yet appeared in the east java regional head election decisions but have begun to be defined along with the increasing intensity of similar decisions. the definition of these terms can be found, among others, in decision number 45/phpu.d-viii/20103232 concerning disputes over the results of the general election for the head of the west kotawaringin region. the “structured” nature is defined as violations that have been carefully planned and involve officials and election organizers in stages. "systematic" refers to violations committed with careful planning and using a good strategy. while “massive” is recognized as a violation committed in a comprehensive manner with wide area coverage (rudy & purba, 2014). b. consistency of constitutional court activism in deciding simultaneous regional head election disputes the intense competition between political parties to secure seats in office is described as one of the triggers for judge activism in the context of election disputes in the by tate and volume 6, issue 1, june 2022: 56 – 70 64 | judicial activism in regional… valinder study as cited by faiz (faiz, 2016a). this spurred a number of lawmakers to file a lawsuit, which compelled the judiciary to engage in the election controversy and resulted in significant improvements thanks to a judge's decision. this also explains the proclivity for requests for disputes over the results of regional head elections, in which participants frequently include administrative infractions, criminal offenses and conflicts during the election phases as grounds for litigation. in fact, all those issues are beyond the constitutional court's jurisdiction and should be resolved through the criminal justice system's mechanisms by police, public prosecutors, and criminal courts. meanwhile, administrative violations can be resolved through the regional general election commission. while disputes in the election process or stages are resolved through the election supervisory body or the election supervisory committee, however, due to the structured, systematic, and massive nature of the violations, in order to uphold democratic values, the constitutional court considered it necessary to grant such a request and annul the results of the regional head election. despite the uproar, the constitutional court judges' action has garnered a lot of acclaim and respect. especially in its endeavors to promote substantive justice rather than being limited to procedural law. the constitutional court's progressive judgements in protecting electoral law and democracy have resulted in numerous legal breakthroughs. on that basis, it's worth looking into the consistency of the constitutional court's judgements during the 2020 simultaneous regional head elections. this consistency is critical in order to keep democracy moving forward, to ensure legal certainty, and, of course, to maintain the integrity and dignity of the constitutional court itself. on december 9, 2020, regional head elections were held concurrently. in principle, the stages of simultaneous regional head elections are identical to the conventional regional head election model. it's merely that in 2020, simultaneous regional head elections will be held in the midst of the covid-19 pandemic, with the necessity to follow the health protocol. on that premise, the conduct of the 2020 simultaneous regional head elections has yielded several benefits and drawbacks, as well as numerous infractions, both in the election context and in violation of health protocols (ramadani & rezah, 2021). a total of 270 regions held regional head election contests, with details of 9 provinces, 224 regencies and 37 cities. according to kode inisiatif study, 136 cases of regional head election disputes were brought to the constitutional court. of the 136 cases presented to the court, the court granted 18 (eighteen) requests, the majority of which included the judge's order to conduct a re-vote, while one ruling ordered a vote recount (reininda, 2021a). this finding suggests that the court does not hesitate to overturn the general election commission's regional head election results, and that it remains consistent in deciding on a re-vote if an error is suspected in the regional head election process. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 56 – 70 judicial activism in regional… | 65 in addition to re-voting, in its decision, the constitutional court again disqualified one pair of candidates, as occurred in the regional head election dispute case in boven digoel regency, papua province. however, the reason for the disqualification is not based on any violations committed by those concerned, but because administratively they do not meet the requirements for candidacy, namely the waiting period for ex-corruption convicts. in the a quo case, the pair of candidates who were disqualified were ex-convicts in a corruption case who in fact had not passed the 5-year gap when registering as candidates for boven digoel regent in 2020, where the 5-year gap should have ended after january 26, 2022. thus, violations were actually committed by election organizers, in this case the general elections commission. this is as stated in the decision 132/php.bupxix/2021, where in its conclusion, the judge stated that there had been a violation in the decision letter and decision letter of the boven digoel general election commission regarding the determination of the pair of candidates in question as contestants for the election of the regent and deputy regent of boven regency digoel of 2020. coincidentally, in the boven digoel case, the applicant was the pair of candidates whose votes were second in number (9,156 votes) below the disqualified candidate pair (16,319 votes). however, the judge did not immediately determine the applicant as the winner of the local election, as in the case of the dispute over the results of the regional head election in west kotawaringin regency. in his decision, the judge only ordered the general election commission of papua province and the general election commission of boven digoel regency to conduct a re-vote for the regent and deputy regent of boven digoel without involving the disqualified candidate pairs. this is most likely due to the fact that after the disqualification of one candidate pair, three other candidate pairs remain, so voting can still be carried out again. it is different from the case in kotawaringin, which only had two pairs of candidates, where if one of them is disqualified, then only a single candidate will be left. furthermore, there is a substantial difference between the decision to annul the results of the 2020 simultaneous regional head election and the decisions of the constitutional court in the previous regional head election. even though they consistently decided on re-voting, the arguments relating to structured, systematic, and massive offenses involving money politics, mobilization of the state civil apparatus, pork barrels, or the partiality of regional head election organizers were not the main factors in the judge's considerations. this is exemplified by the dispute over the results of regional head elections in banjarmasin regency. the judge ordered a re-vote in his decision number 21/php.kotxix/2021 on the banjarmasin regional head election. it's only that it appears the judges are still doubting a variety of reasons surrounding the applicant's allegations for a structural, systematic, and massive offense. volume 6, issue 1, june 2022: 56 – 70 66 | judicial activism in regional… in the case of the simultaneous regional head election dispute case in banjarmasin, the applicant in principle argued that there had been a structured, systematic, and massive violation, which included: 1) misuse of social assistance and direct cash assistance committed by related parties; 2) there was misuse of the banjarmasin municipal government's videotron for the sake of imaging incumbents (related parties) during the campaign period; 3) there has been a deployment of civil apparatus and cleaning staff with the aim of winning over the related parties. 4) there was fraud in the voting and vote counting process, including voter mobilization, which was known from the high number of additional voters and the large number of voters who did not meet the requirements, which was detrimental to the petitioner's vote acquisition.. of the three arguments of the applicant above, only argument number four was accepted by the judge, while for the other three violations, the judge stated that the evidence and facts presented before the trial were insufficient. for example, in relation to the misuse of social assistance and direct cash assistance, the court stated that even though the incident had actually occurred, there was no evidence to justify the existence of a directive from the related party as the incumbent mayor to instruct the state civil apparatus (asn) to campaign for himself or influence voters as the recipient of the assistance. in the context of the argument for videotron abuse, the court stated more or less the same thing: “not finding evidence that the incumbent ordered his staff to abuse the videotron with the aim of campaigning for himself through city government facilities..”. regardless of the judge's belief in the truth of those arguments, the considerations of the constitutional court tend to complicate efforts to prove the arguments for violations that are structured, systematic, and massive in nature. in fact, proving structured, systematic, and massive violations is considered quite difficult because it must link evidence with all the facts that emerged during the trial and must be cumulative (carolina & maryanah, 2022; kasim et al., 2021). as a comparison, article 15 of the general election supervisory agency regulation number 9 of 2020 states that structured, systematic, and massive elements must be interpreted cumulatively by the existence of evidence showing violations in at least 50% (fifty percent) of districts or cities for provincial regional head elections and 50% (fifty percent) of the sub-districts within 1 (one) regency or city for the election of the regency or city regional head. in short, the complainant must be able to prove that the tsm elements actually occur in full in at least 50 percent of the districts or electoral districts. with such provisions, it is hard to present quality evidence in a very limited time. this contrasts with the constitutional court's decision no. 41/phpu.d-vi/2008 on the dispute over the results of regional head elections in east java. in considering his decision, the judge acknowledged that during the evidentiary process, the petitioner was unable to provide evidence to support the results of his calculations. so that the argument for violations volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 56 – 70 judicial activism in regional… | 67 was not formally proven, however, the judge still believed that materially there had been a structured, systematic, and massive offense. to this point, it is appropriate to state that in the simultaneous regional head elections, the constitutional court is still attempting to be consistent with its activism efforts to correct the results of less democratic regional head elections and does not hesitate to order a revote. however, from a considering standpoint, it demonstrates that the judge was cautious in recognizing the justifications for structural, systematic, and massive offense. this can be regarded as a court's attempt to raise the burden of evidence in cases involving election offense. it is believed that this approach will set a precedent and make proving the case for an structural, systematic, and massive election offense a lot harder in the future. conclusion judges engaged in constitutional activism in the context of regional head election disputes in at least the following manners: first, the constitutional court's determination to rule on voting and recounting of votes in regional head elections; second, the constitutional court's willingness to examine and include violations that are structured, massive, and systematic as a basis for decisions; and third, the judge's courage to disqualify regional head candidates as well as determine the winner to avoid confusion while providing legal certainty to society. the constitutional court has continued to pursue this activist practice in the 2020 simultaneous regional elections, allowing 18 requests for regional head election disputes and requiring a revote on 17 of its decisions. there are indications, however, that the structural, systematic, and massive election offenses, were not the primary basis for dismissing the regional head election results, but rather received more objections from judges who sought adequate proof. this condition shall render it much more difficult to prove a structured, systematic, and massive offense in the future. this appears to be at odds with earlier constitutional court decisions, which were believed to be progressive and emphasize substantive justice. reference ali, m. m.,

(budiyono, 2011; setiyanto, 2012) national and/or private financial institutions such as banks, the people's credit agency (bpr), or legal entities permitted by law to provide loans play an important role in providing loans in credit arrangements in indonesia. (ningsih, 2020) (braga et al., 2019) (danquah et al., 2022) it should be noted that in carrying out its business activities, every financial institution must follow the 5 c https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ mailto:hijriani@gmail.com http://dx.doi.org/10.56087/substantivejustice.v6i1.206 volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 2 | restorative justice's approach… (character, capacity, capital, collateral, and condition) as stipulated in article 2 of law number 7 of 1992, as amended by law number 10 of 1998 concerning banking (hereinafter referred to as the banking law) (prawitra thalib et al., 2020). banking crimes in general can occur in a variety of new forms as science and technology advance. (triputra, 2011) (de la feria, 2020) for example, the occurrence of credit abuse, bad credit, the bank's leadership or management fleeing customer money, establishing a type of banking business without a permit, forging letters of credit, or counterfeiting current accounts or savings accounts. corporations frequently commit crimes in the economic field, such as banking crimes, corruption, or money laundering, which not only harm people or the wider community, but can also cause losses to the state and even the global economy. (christian, 2017) (koudijs et al., 2021) some examples of corporate banking crime cases include pt. bma, which collects funds from the public in an unclear form and engages in illegal banking activities that violate article 46 of the banking act under the guise of being a multi level marketing business (hereinafter abbreviated as mlm). another example is the management of bank global tbk's actions to sell the mutual funds issued by pt. prudence asset management, which turned out to be fictitious to the detriment of customers, and the transfer of pt. signature capital indonesia to pt. accent investment indonesia carried out without the customer's knowledge as collateral for debt (zulkarnain sitompul, 2002). the evolution of banks as perpetrators of crimes demonstrates that there have been significant changes in the banking sector's perpetrators of economic crimes and their victims. banks were initially considered to be targets or targets of criminals, but banks as corporations can also commit crimes. victims should be protected, given the magnitude of their losses as a result of crimes committed by banks as corporations. individual customers, corporate customers, the general public, and even the state are among the intended victims (hudi, 2021). regulation of the supreme court of the republic of indonesia no. 13 of 2016 concerning procedures for handling criminal cases by corporations (hereinafter referred to as perma no. 13 of 2016) and regulation of the attorney general of the republic of indonesia no. per.028/a/ja/10/2014 concerning guidelines for handling criminal cases with the subject of corporate law is a special regulation in the criminal justice system, intended to fill a void in criminal procedure (kristina, 2018). the restorative concept according to wright has the main goal of restoration and compensation (hutauruk, 2013). perpetrators of crimes, victims and the whole community are involved in solving crimes directly and focusing on the recovery suffered by victims (victimcentred). (o’malley & smith, 2020) restorative justice is a victim-centered response to crime, that allows victims, their families, and members of society to deal with the damage and losses caused by the crime. (oktarina, 2015). volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 restorative justice's approach… | 3 in 1994, the american bar association (aba) supported the existence of mediation between victims and perpetrators, as well as dialogue in court, and developed voluntary guidelines for its use. in 1995, nova (the national organization for victim assistance) was founded, and the treatise "restorative community justice: a call to action" was published. these results were then expanded across the united states, europe, australia, africa, korea, and russia, including the united nations, the council of europe, and the european union, through dialogue and initiatives (pradityo, 2016). inconsistency in law enforcement against banking crimes in terms of preventing and eradicating them using the corruption crime act instrument, because what is referred to is the term banking crime, which is based on the term white-collar crime popularized by e. h. suterland (timasheff et al., 1955). white-collar crime refers to crimes committed by businessmen/executives and officials that harm the public interest. as a result, almost all perpetrators of illegal acts in the banking sector are businessmen/executives and officials. (carlos et al., 2019) this is a form of legal uncertainty in the legal approach used. the formulation of criminal sanctions and the corporate punishment system are regulated in various laws and regulations, so the resolution of corporate crimes and the imposition of sanctions are not consistently determined. setting deterrent sanctions, fines, or compensation, for example, and protecting the interests of victims who are underrepresented and frequently ignored (oktarina, 2015). settlement of corporate crimes, particularly banking crimes, still leads to legal accountability through various statutory instruments, and the imposition of sanctions tends to be oriented toward the perpetrator's criminal responsibility rather than representing the victim's interests. as a result of this research's analysis, it is possible to conclude that there is novelty in banking crime settlement research that employs alternative restorative justice solutions that benefit victims who have suffered losses. another point to consider is that imposing criminal responsibility on organs that only carry out orders or as the personification of corporations governed by the banking law is insufficient to fulfill the value of justice, which emphasizes partiality to victims of banking fraud, and does not create a deterrent effect for criminals (hijriani et al., 2022). this study considers how to resolve non-litigation disputes involving corporate banking crimes, as well as whether the concept of restorative justice can be used as an alternative to sanctions in resolving corporate banking crimes with a bias toward victims. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 4 | restorative justice's approach… in summary, the researcher describes the background above as shown below: figure 1. conceptual framework the figure above shows whether the settlement of banking crimes can be carried out through a restorative justice approach, can be used as an alternative solution for resolving banking corporate crime that is oriented towards victims who are harmed. this will be explained in the analysis of the next sub discussion. method a. type of research the type of research used is normative legal research, using several approach including (irwansyah, 2020): 1) an analytical approach is taken to examine the meaning of a legal term and seen in legal practice. 2) a comparative approach is used to compare the applicable legal regulations in indonesia with similar regulations in other countries, particularly those governing corporate, banking and restorative crimes. 3) legal approach (statute approach) this approach is carried out by examining the provisions of laws and regulations consisting of regulations related to banking, restorative justice, and regulations related to the research theme. b.

and regulations related to the research object. 2) secondary legal materials in the form of publications on laws, legal materials that provide explanations on primary legal materials, such as scientific journal articles, reports, circulars and results of previous research. the primary material was analyzed using the theme analysis model of the research title (theme analysis). the analysis of primary and secondary legal materials is prescriptively banking crime settlement through restorative justice aprroach? banking crime restorative justice corporation criminal act settllement volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 restorative justice's approach… | 5 presented and is based on a comprehensive, holistic, and in-depth approach in accordance with qualitative research methods. analysis and discussion a. a. settlement of non-litigation disputes against corporate banking crimes 1. the “out of court settlement” model the restorative paradigm is viewed as a concept of resistance to retributive justice that emphasizes the model of dialogue and negotiation in the process of resolving criminal acts, leading to an out-of-court settlement model by prioritizing peace, dialogue between disputing parties to resolve legal issues that arise. faced, by emphasizing the balance of society's, perpetrators', and victims' interests in criminal acts. out-of-court settlement agreements are not adhered to in the criminal code because the paradigm in criminal law is retributive, namely punishing perpetrators and resulting in suffering that is not equal to that experienced by victims. although peace efforts between the parties are attempted at the beginning of the trial in civil cases, out of court settlement can also be found in chapter viii book i of the criminal code, article 82, which is known as the afkoop institution1, thus causing the right of prosecution to be null and void by being compensated for the payment of the maximum fine voluntarily. the basis of the protection of victims of crime refers to several theories, viz (kusuma, 2015): 1) utility theory. this theory focuses on the benefit for the greatest number. the concept of providing protection to victims of crime can be applied as long as it provides greater benefits than not applying the concept, not only for victims of crime, but also for the criminal law enforcement system as a whole. 2) the theory of responsibility. in essence, the legal subject (person or group) is responsible for all legal actions he/she commits so that if someone commits a crime which causes another person to suffer losses (in a broad sense), that person must be responsible for the losses incurred, unless there is a reason. who freed him. 3) 3) compensation theory. as an embodiment of responsibility for their mistakes towards other people, the perpetrators of criminal acts are burdened with the obligation to provide compensation to victims or their heirs. the principle of dispute resolution with the concept of a restorative approach departs from the principle of a just settlement as an initial stage. this principle is an effort to provide protection for customers and resolve customer complaints principle of a just settlement as an initial stage. this principle is an effort to provide protection for customers and resolve customer 1 institutions limited to certain criminal acts, for example on tax and customs violations. this violation can be compensated by paying a fine, provided that the permission of the official who has the right to prosecute, for example a tax or customs inspector. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 6 | restorative justice's approach… complaints. therefore, banks are required to respond to customer complaints, especially those related to financial transactions that are detrimental to them. in an effort to avoid resolving customer complaints, it is necessary to have clear and generally applicable time standards at each bank. for this reason, alternative dispute resolution is needed as an effort to continue customer complaints in the form of restorative alternative dispute resolution. one way is through banking mediation, namely bringing together customers and banks to find a solution to the main issues in order to reach an agreement without recommendations or decisions from bank indonesia (hereinafter abbreviated as bi). settlement of a case outside of court, also known as "non-litigation" or "out of court settlement," is not a new concept in the indonesian legal system or legal practice, as it has long been used in civil cases. the disputing parties can reach an out-of-court settlement to achieve peace or settlement. in other words, court decisions are final, so national and international contract dispute settlement actions can use arbitration law or alternative dispute resolution (adr), which is also an embodiment of out-of-court settlement and is recognized in indonesia's legal system (saija, 2017). the non-litigation dispute resolution paradigm has actually been implicitly regulated in statutory regulations, namely the banking law, which states in chapter viii administrative sanctions article 52 that bank indonesia is authorized to impose administrative sanctions on banks that do not fulfill their obligations, and the capital markets law number 8 of 1985. the capital market supervisory agency (hereinafter abbreviated as bapepam)2 is authorized to determine administrative sanctions for financial service providers or other parties involved in market manipulation, human trafficking, and fraud in chapter xiv administrative sanctions. because it was resolved by bank indonesia examiners or ojk investigators rather than a court decision, the formulation of the two laws above is a non-litigation dispute settlement or out of court settlement. the decisions of bank indonesia examiners and ojk investigators in this case call for declaratory and condemnatory administrative sanctions. even in some cases, such as banking fraud, the decisions of public officials are constitutive, implying a change in the suspect's legal status in order for him to cooperate (artadi, 2007). the legal implication of the out-of-court settlement paradigm is that the parties can still submit a lawsuit to the state administrative court (hereinafter abbreviated as ptun) due to the fact that the decision of the ojk official is administrative in nature, or in other words, a civil lawsuit is still being carried out, with the reason that the ojk official's decision is not final and binding because it only has legal force for both parties and is still temporary. if the peace is not adhered to, then the lawsuit process must be used through the courts. meanwhile, the decision 2 at the end of 2011, as an effort to reform the financial sector, the government and the house of representatives (dpr) agreed to establish the financial services authority (ojk). then, on november 22, 2012, law number 21 concerning the financial services authority was passed. this so-called independent institution began functioning on december 31, 2012, replacing the functions, duties and regulatory authorities that had been carried out by the ministry of finance through the capital market and financial institution supervisory agency (bapepam-lk). volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 restorative justice's approach… | 7 of the parties to carry out reconciliation in court is final and binding, so that the parties are prohibited from making appeals and cassations as regulated in article 130, paragraph (3) hir. in the peace deed made at trial, the court has the power of a judge's decision, which has permanent legal force, known as kracht van gewijsde. if one of the parties does not comply with what has been mutually agreed upon, then an execution can be requested from the head of the district court due to the deed of reconciliation that has been made. 2. injuction institution the paradigm of non-litigation settlement as an alternative is carried out on the basis of consideration of the complexity of the problem in an effort to increase public confidence in the world of financial and banking services. in this case, a non-litigation settlement paradigm needs to be built using an injunction settlement institution. this institution is a settlement institution that is known in the legal system in the united states and england which uses the common law system, where the court at the request of one of the litigants can order a delay in examining the case, if the applicant can prove that there is no clear and adequate legal means. in the settlement or examination of the case, so that losses will occur later when the application is granted. in other words, greater losses can be prevented if the settlement process through administrative, civil, or criminal sanctions continues in accordance with applicable laws. where a court decision ordering the termination of the ongoing settlement process and by financial or banking officials as investigators for civil servant officials (ppns) can prevent losses for the parties involved in the case. inclusion of a non-litigation settlement process involving injunctions and the role of the court, long before or during the settlement process mandated by law. meanwhile, the goal of criminal case settlement in practice has shifted from deterring perpetrators and preventing others from committing similar crimes to deterring perpetrators and preventing others from committing similar crimes. the process of the judge's actions prior to the filing of a lawsuit was previously unknown in the civil procedural law system. however, there is a provisional stipulation institution (which was adopted from the injunction institution) in several provisions of the new law, particularly in the field of intellectual property rights, namely a judge's order requiring certain parties to carry out an act (mandatory or positive injunction) or not to commit an act (inhibitory or negative injection). conversely, there is also a paradigm of resolving criminal cases with alternatives that use restorative and rehabilitative perspectives. in other words, a restorative approach aims to restore an imbalanced situation to achieve harmony in the life of a particular community. meanwhile, the restorative-rehabilitative approach has taken the spirit of settlement according to customary law, namely being able to restore imbalances in the cosmos or those that have been volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 8 | restorative justice's approach… modernized. when connected with the paradigm of resolving financial and banking cases that contain criminal elements from a macro-economic policy perspective, it seems that this has become a decision that is difficult to avoid, even though it is difficult for the wider community to accept because it is seen as not in line with people's feelings of justice as opposed to restorative justice. when comparing the development of law enforcement in developed countries, the government's position in preventing financial and banking crimes has actually strengthened. whereas developing countries, including indonesia, continue to have flaws in their political, economic, financial, and banking environments, it is difficult to implement criminal law consistently and in accordance with the principle of legal certainty. b. restorative justice as an alternative for corporate banking crime settlement restorative justice is one example of the evolution of criminal law. this development is due to the fact that the retributive system that has been implemented thus far has not fully satisfied the people's sense of justice. the orientation of retributive justice is the orientation of justice aimed solely at violators and solely for breaking the law. as a result, the concept of retributive justice does not include a provision for victim protection. the concept of fairness in the restorative concept is based on a "consensus" of agreement that provides alternative options in problem solving, whereas proportionality relates to the scope of similarity in the suffering sanctions that must be imposed on violators. proportionality is considered to have been fulfilled in criminal justice in general if it has fulfilled a sense of retributive justice (a reciprocal balance between punish and reward), whereas in a restorative approach it can impose disproportionate sanctions on offenders who commit the same offense (hutauruk, 2013). in the criminal justice system, restorative justice does not use the principle of who wins and who loses. restorative justice, on the other hand, seeks to find a middle ground of communication between all parties involved in crime in order to reach a collective resolution of dealing with criminal acts. restorative justice is thought to provide better guarantees of justice for all parties, including society, in practice (pradityo, 2016). settlement of criminal acts through a restorative approach to a conflict, damage or loss arising from a crime is seen as a conflict that occurs in the relationship between community members which must be resolved and restored by all parties together. all law enforcement institutions in indonesia, including the supreme court, the attorney general's office, the police of the republic of indonesia, and the ministry of law and human rights of the republic of indonesia, have adopted the principle of restorative justice as a way to resolve a criminal case, limited only to the implementation of the adjustments to the limits of action. light crimes and total fines, speedy examination procedures, and the implementation of restorative justice, as contained in the memorandum of understanding (kristanto, 2020) . volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 restorative justice's approach… | 9 guidelines for terminating prosecutions based on restorative justice are contained in ri prosecutor's office regulation number 15 of 2020 concerning termination of prosecution based on restorative justice (hereinafter referred to as prosecutor's office no. 15/2020). based on attorney no. 15/2020, restorative justice is the settlement of criminal cases involving perpetrators, victims, families of perpetrators and victims, and other related parties to jointly seek a fair solution by emphasizing restoration to its original state and not retaliation. this prosecutor's office contains the prosecutor's authority to stop prosecutions based on restorative justice as a breakthrough in solving criminal acts. termination of prosecution based on restorative justice is part of the public prosecutor's authority to close cases in the public interest, more specifically on the grounds that there has been a settlement of cases outside the court (the abiding by the law process) (handoko, 2020). however, the provisions stipulated in this prosecutor's office must pay attention to the existence of basic conditions that must be met, including: a) the suspect is the first time to commit a crime; b) criminal acts are only punishable by fines or threatened with imprisonment of not more than 5 (five) years; c) the crime was committed with the value of the evidence or the value of the losses incurred as a result of the crime of not more than idr 2,500,000; d) there has been restoration to its original state by the suspect by returning goods obtained from the crime to the victim; compensation for the loss of the victim; reimbursing costs incurred as a result of a criminal act; repair the damage caused by the crime; e) there has been a peace agreement between the victim and the suspect; and f) the community responds positively aside from the permissible conditions and principles for the implementation of restorative justice, exceptions to the implementation of restorative justice are also regulated, specifically in article 5 paragraph (8), which regulates the termination of restorative justicebased prosecution except in cases of grave misconduct: a) criminal acts against state security, the dignity of the president and vice president, friendly countries, heads of friendly countries and their representatives, public order and decency; b) criminal offense punishable by a minimum penalty; c) narcotic crime; d) environmental crimes; and e) criminal acts committed by corporations. there are basic requirements and exceptions regulated by the prosecutor's office no. 15/2020, and technically it is not possible to handle cases that are oriented towards the value of volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 10 | restorative justice's approach… restorative justice for crimes committed by corporations. a restorative sanction approach, on the other hand, is an alternative choice of sanctions that can be applied to corporations in order to prioritize victims as the injured party in the settlement of corporate crimes. dispute resolution through non-litigation channels has gained a place in the banking world (wulandari, 2013), with the establishment of the bank indonesia banking mediation institution, whose mission is to carry out non-litigation settlements through the use of mediation as a method of dispute resolution. banking mediation is one of the mechanisms for resolving customer and bank disputes in the context of customer protection, as established by bank indonesia regulation number: 10/1/pb1/2008 concerning amendments to bank indonesia regulation number: 8/5/pb1/2006 concerning banking mediation. customer protection is pursued by ensuring customer rights when dealing with banks and encouraging equal relationships between banks as business actors and customers as consumers who use banking services (tamara, 2008). the presence of banking mediation institutions is becoming increasingly important and urgent because every customer problem has the potential to cause a dispute and damage the bank's reputation, so it must be properly and professionally mediated. the resolution of disputes between customers and banks through banking mediation institutions can help to maintain public trust while reducing negative publicity that can harm the bank's reputation. according to the indonesian consumers foundation (abbreviated ylki), there are three major reasons for the need for a banking mediation institution: 1) the banking potential is getting bigger, and the possibility of conflict is also getting bigger; 2) the position between the bank and the consumer is unequal so that there is a possibility of pressure from the bank on the customer; 3) there is no place to make complaints. disputes that can be submitted for mediation by bank indonesia are those that are not currently in process, have never been decided by an arbitration institution or court, or where there has been no agreement facilitated by another mediation institution. bank indonesia, through the directorate of banking investigation and mediation (hereinafter abbreviated as dimp), always recommends that it be resolved through legal channels, but if in the agreement forum there is another opinion from the police and prosecutors to stop the case and not process it through legal channels, bank indonesia will accept that. this opinion is, of course, in accordance with the conditions agreed upon during the meeting between bank indonesia, the police, and the attorney general's office (wulandari, 2013). basically, the settlement of banking crimes is possible without going through court channels as long as the bank's internal party has resolved the case, both between the bank and the perpetrator and with the customer, so that it does not become a finding by bank indonesia. volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 restorative justice's approach… | 11 settlement of disputes through banking mediation does not negate the crime in that case. therefore, criminal disputes are still being prosecuted in the district court. banking mediation is carried out for any dispute that has a maximum financial claim value of rp. 500,000,000 (five hundred million rupiah). the customer cannot file a financial claim resulting from an immaterial loss. likewise with the provisions in article 41 pojk no. 1/pojk.07/2013, which stipulate that the value of financial claims is the same as what is regulated in ojk regulations, requiring a maximum loss of rp. 500,000,000 for a customer. this amount can be in the form of cumulative financial losses that have occurred to customers, potential losses due to delays or the inability to carry out customer financial transactions with other parties, or costs incurred by customers to obtain dispute resolution. according to article 26 paragraph (4) of the united nations convention against corruption, 2003 (united nations convention against corruption, 2003), the state is obligated to ensure that the corporations responsible face effective, proportionate, and prohibitive criminal or non-criminal sanctions, including financial sanctions. if non-criminal sanctions are deemed more effective and proportionately by law enforcers and judges, the use of criminal law can be considered and set aside. profits obtained by corporations and losses suffered by society as a result of corporate crimes are so large that they cannot be balanced if corporations are only subject to criminal sanctions. as a result, an alternative dispute resolution mechanism such as deferred prosecution is required. furthermore, in order to effectively implement the system for dealing with corporate banking crimes, alternative methods and strategies that enrich the existing criminal system can be expanded by imposing sanctions that include elements of restitution, compensation, and/or mediation. several countries have implemented a deffered prosecution agreement (abbreviated as dpa) policy to reduce bankruptcy or corporate bankruptcy as a result of criminal prosecution. the handling of criminal acts of corruption committed by corporations in england is based on schedule 17 of the crime and courts act 2013 (hereinafter referred to as schedule 17 of c&c act 2013), which uses the deffered prosecution agreement policy in dealing with crimes committed by corporations. deferred prosecution agreement, also known as deferred prosecution, is an out-of-court alternative form of dispute resolution. suspended prosecution is essentially an informal agreement between the lawyer/defendant and the public prosecutor to establish conditions that the perpetrator must meet. a dpa is a court-supervised agreement between the british public prosecutor and the corporation being sued. the deferred prosecution agreement was implemented in england and wales in 2014 and is still being negotiated. the dpa, however, was not without controversy. concerns have been raised about reduced prosecution of perpetrators, the requirement for self-reporting (and volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 12 | restorative justice's approach… reduced penalties even if no self-reporting occurs), and the rarity of prosecution of corporations that are not part of the dpa regime. despite these reservations, the dpa has received strong backing from the legislature, law enforcement, and the judiciary (hawley et al., 2020). the only criticism of dpa stated that because corporations as defendants had to pay fines and submit to structural reforms without being found guilty at trial, dpa in this case was deemed to have violated the presumption of innocence (shiner & ho, 2018). criminal acts that can be applied to dpa are only certain crimes, namely conspiracy to commit fraud, tax evasion, theft, falsification of accounting, bribery and other economic crimes contained in the provisions of theft act 1968, customs and excise management act 1979, forgery and counterfeiting act 1981, section 450 of the companies act 1985, section 72 of the value added tax act 1994, financial services and markets act 2000, proceeds of crime act 2002, companies act 2006, fraud act 2006, bribery act 2010, regulations 45 of the money laundering regulations 2007. the application of dpa is only for corporations, not individuals (iqbal, 2020). in order to implement the dpa policy in indonesia, legislators must systematically change the laws and regulations that support corporations being punished, as contained in english laws and regulations. taking into account the following factors (mutiara, 2019): a) consider the indonesian justice system in terms of its constitutional structure and legal traditions. the impact of regulatory and compliance burdens on corporations, where corporations require additional costs; b) crimes that can use the dpa mechanism include serious crimes (but not limited), so it is necessary to establish a special law that regulates this; c) it only applies to corporations so there is an opportunity to have a deterrent effect and possibly sue employees (company organs). however, if it is limited to corporations, then there is a possibility that individuals have committed crimes but do not report them for fear of being punished. d) the role of the courts will be very important for the dpa. judicial involvement will increase trust. e) there is a balance between the interests of building public trust and also the interests of pursuing fraudulent corporations. f) increasing public trust, indonesia's dpa scheme can require agreements in the public interest and to be fair, reasonable and proportionate. g) clear guidelines on how the dpa will be negotiated and an effective oversight mechanism. in addition to the foregoing, the sense of justice in society must be considered. because the dpa mechanism is still likely to face challenges in its implementation in society. the public will find it difficult to accept dpa policies in certain criminal contexts, particularly those involving volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 restorative justice's approach… | 13 crimes against state finances or corruption. for a developing country like indonesia, the criminal act of corruption is an extraordinary crime that necessitates a serious basic punishment, including revocation of political rights in the name of justice and protection of human rights, rather than simply returning state assets. (ramadani & mamonto w.w., 2019). the restorative approach may contradict the aims of efforts to eradicate corruption, because then efforts to form independent institutions in the field of anti-corruption such as the corruption eradication commission (kpk) will be questioned (ramadani & mamonto, 2018). banking crimes that are found are usually resolved through litigation. the police and prosecutors have the right to determine whether the crime should still be brought to litigation or can it be resolved internally with a number of provisions, for example: the material loss is not in a large amount and has been returned by the perpetrator; the perpetrator has received sanctions from bank indonesia, for example, termination of employment, or has been crossed out in the indonesian banking register; the perpetrator is not a recidivist; and there is no legal claim from the customer. based on these considerations, the public prosecutor will postpone the prosecution process against him. the new prosecution will be officially abolished if the perpetrator fulfills all the conditions that have been agreed upon. however, if the perpetrator fails or cannot fulfill the requirements, the public prosecutor can proceed with a formal prosecution. however, when a corporation becomes a suspect in a crime, a model such as dpa can be used. the public prosecutor may offer corporations not to be prosecuted in court a postponement of prosecution in exchange for the corporation admitting its actions and agreeing to voluntarily pay a fine and a certain amount of compensation to the public or the state. to be clear, if the corporation fails to fulfill the agreement reached with the public prosecutor, it will be prosecuted as a defendant in court. with a model like this, corporate crimes can be settled and state financial losses recovered more quickly (sinaga, 2021). conclusion settlement of a case outside the court, better known as "non-litigation" or "out of court settlement," is not something new in the legal system or legal practice in indonesia because it has long been implemented in civil cases. an out-of-court settlement can be carried out by the disputing parties to make peace. non-litigation dispute resolution against corporate banking crimes needs to be built using an injunction settlement institution, where the court, at the request of one of the litigants, can order a delay in examining the case if the applicant can prove that there are no clear and adequate legal means in the settlement or examination of the case so that losses will occur later when the application is granted. the concept of restorative justice can be applied as an alternative settlement for corporate banking crimes by establishing the bank indonesia banking mediation institution, which is tasked with carrying out non-litigation volume 6, issue 1, june 2023: 1 – 16 14 | restorative justice's approach… settlements using mediation. the deferred prosecution agreement policy can be an alternative dispute resolution that can be done outside the court, in the form of a deferred prosecution policy. acknowledgement thank you to the directorate general of higher education, research and technology, ministry of education, culture, research and technology, university of southeast sulawesi, faculty of law, university of southeast sulawesi, and the research team who helped and supported so that the research implementation and research results in the form of this article could be completed. reference artadi, i.

intellectual property rights; creative economy; introduction intellectual property is the result of ideas in the form of ideas or ideas that are manifested or expressed in the form of inventions, literary and artistic works, designs, certain symbols/signs, creation of the layout of semiconductor components and breeding varieties. this expression will be a legal product and inherent into an intellectual property rights, intellectual property rights (ipr) if it is processed through applicable procedures and provisions so that ipr can be said to be a legal product in the form of rights arising from intellectual property generated. the intellectual property results are then used in the world of commerce to produce economic value for the inventors/creators of these creations. in its journey, intellectual property to become a product of ipr requires applicable procedures and procedures, for which regulations are in accordance with the law and volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 54 70 | 55 legal protection on intellectual property rights in the development of creative economy in mamuju regency government regulations. these procedures and stages are usually considered difficult and complex by intellectual property producers so that there are still many intellectual property results that have not yet been submitted by the ipr. the impact of this condition is that the economic benefits of ki that have been used by the public have not yet been optimized by intellectual property producers.1 a product that can be given ipr protection, then the product must be creative and innovative. a product is said to be creative and innovative in the perspective of ipr that the product can meet the criteria of each ipr regime. for the copyright of a product, it is said to be creative and innovative if it meets the criteria of originality, fixation and creativity. for patents, a product is said to be creative and innovative if the product meets the criteria of novelty, inventive steps and can be applied in industrial activities. must be new and not the same as the previous disclosures, and for trade secrets, the criteria that must be met is an effort to safeguard the information of economic value to the public. looking at these criteria, it is clear that the products requested by ipr should be creative and innovative. but unfortunately, currently there are still creative economic actors not paying attention to the existing criteria. as a result, existing products are not new or even counterfeit from pre-existing ones. the reality of ipr protection relating to the ipr registration system is in the form of registration procedures which are considered complicated, costly “expensive” and which tend to be uncertain so that they are not eventually registered. this certainly weakens legal protection and has implications for not protecting the products of the creative economy. other realities of ipr protection are related to ipr law enforcement. ipr law enforcement is still considered selective and lacks good and professional treatment. the lack of, law enforcement officers who have a good understanding of ipr also become a real reality in ipr law enforcement. as a result, creative economic products that have been registered with ipr cannot always be protected, even though the legal process should have been carried out. in general, intellectual property rights can be divided into two categories, namely: copyright and industrial property rights. whereas industrial property rights include patents, brands, industrial designs, layout designs of integrated circuits, trade secrets and plant varieties. intellectual property rights have been regulated by various laws and regulations in accordance with the demands of trips, namely law number 29 of 2000 (plant variety protection), law number 30 of 2000 (trade secret), law number 31 of 2000 (industrial design) law number 32 of 2000 (layout design of integrated circuits), law number 14 of 2001 (patent), law number 15 of 2001 (trademark), and law number 28 of 2014 1mujiyono, m., & ferianto, f.

protection of intellectual property rights against the development of creative economy in mamuju regency regency is one of the districts formed based on law number 29 the year 1959 concerning the formation of level ii regions in sulawesi within the territory of the south sulawesi province. mamuju is the capital of west sulawesi province, volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 54 70 | 65 legal protection on intellectual property rights in the development of creative economy in mamuju regency which holds a million treasures. starting from a very strategic location, a large area to abundant natural wealth. this area has an area stretching from the border of tapalang district to sampaga district. mamuju is directly opposite the makassar strait and kalimantan island in the west which is a bustling national trade route and the trans sulawesi west coast land route which is the main trade route that connects cities on the island of sulawesi. besides having a very strategic location, mamuju regency also has abundant natural wealth even though until now most of its potential has not been well managed. the potential of natural resources owned by this region comes from several sectors, namely: agriculture and animal husbandry sector, plantation and forestry, fisheries and marine affairs, and the mining and energy sector. in addition, to reach mamuju regency which is also the capital of west sulawesi province which is the 33rd province in indonesia can be reached by aeroplane based at tampapadang airport, kalukku district, about 35 kilometres from mamuju city. other supporting factors include accommodation facilities such as adequate hotels and inns, restaurants and restaurants and telephone facilities in the form of telkom and cellular telephones as well as banks that are ready to serve the needs of prospective investors visiting the area. especially for tourism, this area also has potential that is not inferior to other regions. the tourism potential is in the form of marine tourism, nature tourism and cultural tourism. in the city of mamuju itself, the mamuju regional government has been trying to build a creative economy through government programs, one of which is the development of a creative economy through the use of local food processing to support the increase in income per capita of the community.15 creative economic development is in line with the mission of the mamuju district government, namely to increase the ability and economic independence of the community, through business development and home industry and support for improving public transportation, said mamuju regent habsi wahid. he conveyed this at the institute for the development of appropriate local communities of indonesian technology (lembaga pengembangan teknologi tepat guna-masyarakat lokal indonesia – lpttg – malindo) director’s expose and the inauguration of the mamuju community economic business development forum (forum pengembangan usaha ekonomi masyarakat fpuem) which took place in the local regent’s office pattern room on sunday. therefore, he said, the mamuju district government invited every village in mamuju regency to utilize the food in their respective regions. no doubt, mamuju is rich in local food such as corn, cassava, pumpkin and several other local 15putra, a. h. p. k., nasir, m., & buana, a. p.

(2016). mamuju kembangkan ekonomi kreatif. antaranews.com. retrieved from https:// makassar.antaranews.com/berita/74512/mamuju-kembangkan-ekonomi-kreatif 17bukhori, s. a.

2019 : 54 70 | 67 legal protection on intellectual property rights in the development of creative economy in mamuju regency which has the potential for agriculture quite rapidly, and is one of the biggest sources of income from the community. however, with the emergence of creative ideas, collaboration between natural resources in mamuju regency and creative ideas of the community will produce creative economies which are now fully supported by the central government through the establishment of an institution called the creative economy agency (badan ekonomi kreatif – bekraf) then there is no reason for the regional government to refuse or not support the development of the creative economy in the region, because the central government has fully supported its aim to empower the people in each region, through the development of a creative economy. in addition, the process of development of the creative economy must be supported by digitalization systems or what we are more familiar with information digitalization, namely the process of transforming various information, news from analogue format into format digital so that it is easier to produce, store, manage, and distribute. information that is digitalized can be presented in the form of text, numbers, audio, visual, which contains ideology, social, health and business. so many products from creative economic actors are not in line with expectations or behavior, one of the reasons is problematic marketing process, then constrained on the issue of promotion, especially when the promotion and advertising are no longer carried out as before through brochures or print media, almost all promotions are carried out through internet media, both websites, blogs and social media, because in the digitalization era as now information is more and faster obtained through the internet than through print media. so the discussion above we can see that the issue of intellectual property rights will have an impact on the problem of increasing the creative economy, one of which is the issue of the use of trademarks, for example in mamuju regency, which will develop creative economies. especially from the regional government so that the products sold have legal certainty and are not problematic in the future. the government’s efforts in overcoming the problem first are direct assistance in improving the creative economy, especially in the area of public understanding of the importance of trademark registration so that trademarks used by creative economic actors in mamuju regency have legal certainty about the products produced in accordance with potential resources nature owned by mamuju regency, second is the making of regulations in the form of regional regulations that specifically provide legal certainty for creative economic business actors even though it has been regulated in the brand law, there is no harm in regional government also supporting through the creation of regional regulations that protect economic actors creative and creative economy improvement in mamuju district, because the potential in a region that knows better is the local government itself, so the regional government volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 54 70 68 | legal protection on intellectual property rights in the development of creative economy in mamuju regency should make regulations regarding issues of intellectual property rights intestine to improve the creative economy in mamuju district. conclusion creative industries cannot develop independently and separate from other sectors. creative industries support each other and collaborate with other sectors, starting from the education, technology, trade, tourism, defence, politics, social and cultural sectors. creative products are created and distributed on various platforms. in the current mamuju regency, a trend that has begun to grow among young people, the strengthening of creative economic activities. we can observe this in business growth, especially in the manakarra coast region. it’s just not yet become a large and significant industry and the availability of facilities in its development. the products produced are also tailored to the minimal market demand, and most marketing methods are marketed in a simple way, for example through the internet, social media, and from door to door. indonesia has a regulation that is assessed in accordance with the rules in the creative economy, namely law number 20 the year 2008 concerning msmes, law number 33 the year 2009 concerning film encouraging the development of the film industry, law number 3 the year 2014 concerning industry encourages the development of the national creative industry, law number 28 the year 2014 concerning copyright provides intellectual property protection for creative works, and law number 7 the year 2014 concerning trade encourages product trade based on the creative economy. the regional government of mamuju regency needs to formulate a regional regulation that can provide legal guarantees and certainty to the intellectual property of creative entrepreneurs in mamuju regency. currently in mamuju regency west sulawesi province does not yet have a creative industry centre, both from production and marketing activities. it is important, the local government to build complex and creative industrial facilities, where each actor and creative industry elements collaborate with each other and are easy to bring together creative industry producers and consumers. everything will not be achieved properly, if it is not supported politically by the ruling party or in other words if there is no political-will from each stakeholder, especially for the mamuju regional government. reference ahmad,

b. gender; c. duration of sentence imposed; d. type of crime; e. other criteria according to the needs or development of coaching. furthermore, this classification is further regulated by a ministerial decree. in the explanation of the law it does not provide a clear description of the basic concept of the classification. and the ministerial decree in question also does not yet exist. and in its implementation at the makassar correctional institution conceptually and practically in the classification program only on sex and even then it is only done by block / room separation, because makassar does not have a special juvenile correctional institution. the concept of safe protection in its application there are some child inmates who are still at the institution who are feared to have a negative impact both physically and psychologically on inmates of younger children.11 whereas according to law number 11 of 2012 concerning the juvenile court system in article 60 said; that correctional students are placed in a juvenile correctional institution that must be separated from adults. article 61 states that a criminal child who has not finished his sentence and has reached the age of 18 must be immediately transferred. if it is not yet 21 years old, it is placed in a young adult correctional institution, but this study shows that classification based on the type of crime and recidivism is also not done at this institution. according to the binakdik section, this classification is not done so that they can “mingle” with other child inmates, but unfortunately this is a false understanding, because based on national and international legislation the concept of community with other fellow inmates is not the case. the condition of handling children in the land is very concerning and deserves caution because those who have repeatedly committed crimes if they are not separated from those who are beginners, are worried that they will transmit negative traits.12 there are a number of factors why 18-year-old inmates are still placed in juvenile correctional facilities. one of them is at the time of the trial the child claimed to 11toha, s.

(2018). loc. cit. volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 71 88 | 77 implementation of human rights protection towards in penitentiary of children in makassar the implementation of worship as a change in lifestyle in prison basically mostly felt that religious guidance in the development of religious aspects within the institution was considered quite good. this religious formation is important, because it is hoped that with this mental formation the child prisoners can be strengthened by their faith and given an understanding to be able to realize the consequences of their actions. a humanistic approach through religious formation must be able to raise the awareness of the violator of human values and the values of social life in society.15 regarding the implementation of worship outside the institution, most of the child inmates basically felt they did not get the right to carry out worship together with the community. even though this is very important in the context of assimilation and integration with the community. implementation of worship outside of correctional institutions is important so that child prisoners feel accepted as part of the community. it is better for prisoners to be included, for example in lightning pesantren joining children in general, of course with supervision by officers. thus there are two benefits at once, namely in addition to increasing the thickness of faith, also child inmates are trained to adapt to children in general. regarding physical and spiritual care, basically some feel less. the care of child inmates does not work as it should, which serves to keep them physically and mentally healthy, so that they must continue to obtain sufficient needs, such as food, water for drinking and bathing, but it is very unfortunate because of limited facilities and the capacity is not in line with the expectations of the implementation of protection for child prisoners in indonesia.16 especially for food, food must be considered with a number of calories that is suitable for the growth of children. in addition, what must be considered is how to give food to child prisoners not to lower their dignity as humans. regarding health services, some child prisoners feel they are not getting it, this is probably due to the number of medical personnel (general practitioners) who are only two people in prison. whereas for those who feel they are getting enough health care, those who are affected by minor illness, most of the diseases suffered by child prisoners are skin diseases, metabolic disorders, difficulty sleeping, this is due to poorly maintained sanitation or hygiene, and the nutrition they obtain from food. in the event the health check is carried out if there is a request from the prisoner in question. health checks should be carried out routinely every month, with preventive health services and curative services so that it is expected that the conditions of child 15rambitan, c. m.

(2016). aspek layanan kesehatan bagi warga binaan pemasyarakatan dan tahanan di lembaga pemasyarakatan dan rumah tahanan negara (aspects of health carestowards convicts and inmates). jurnal ilmiah kebijakan hukum, badan penelitian dan pengembangan hukum dan ham, 10(1), p. 42. volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 71 88 | 79 implementation of human rights protection towards in penitentiary of children in makassar important so as not to cause negative effects between one inmate and another inmate. furthermore, to find out the rights of child prisoners to obtain remission, it must also be known about the length of the criminal sentence, this is related to the requirements regarding remission.18 when looking at the length of the criminal period, those who have the right to receive remission are prisoners who are serving a sentence of more than six months, thus based on 60 child prisoners formally 9 people who are entitled to remission are 51 while those who are not entitled to remission are 51. the implementation of remission is given if during criminal proceedings, child inmates are well behaved, and the reduction in the period of serving this criminal sentence can be increased if during the criminal procedure the prisoner is doing service to the state and carrying out actions that are beneficial for the state and humanity . the reduction in the criminal period is given by the minister of justice, which is submitted by the head of the correctional institution in question through the head of the regional office of the ministry of justice concerned. whereas the implementation of remissions at the makassar correctional institution has basically been carried out but because of the many procedures that must be taken so as to cause delays, while their criminal period is sometimes exhausted so that they do not get their rights to obtain remission. even though in article 4 paragraph (1) implementation of the presidential decree of the republic of indonesia number: 174 year 1999 concerning remission, it is stated that only prisoners and criminal children have undergone a sentence of 6 (six) to 12 (twelve) months who have received remission. however, this provision also cannot reach the problems that exist in makassar correctional institutions, because most of them are sentenced to short prison terms, one year down. in this case the role of the community observation team and the penitentiary advisory board needs to be improved so that a rapid movement occurs in dealing with the remission problem of child prisoners, so as soon as possible after observing child inmates. furthermore, regarding the right of prisoners to obtain assimilation, in this case it must also be known about the criminal period that has been carried out by inmates, this is related to the conditions that must be taken to obtain assimilation permits. for assimilation19 given to prisoners who have served half their sentence, while those who have carried out ⅔ of their prison periods are assimilated by providing independent activities outside the prison. this paper illustrates that formally the prisoners who are entitled to assimilation are 7 people. however, in its implementation, this was not fully done because of 18abdullah, r. h. (2015). urgensi penggolongan narapidana dalam lembaga pemasyarakatan. fiat justisia: jurnal ilmu hukum, universitas lampung, 9(1), p. 53. 19nugroho, o. c. (2015). pemenuhan hak atas kebutuhan seksual warga binaan pemasyarakatan. jurnal ham, badan penelitian dan pengembangan hukum dan ham, 6(2), p. 132. volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 71 88 80 | implementation of human rights protection towards in penitentiary of children in makassar procedures involving many parties, which resulted in delays which in the end the prisoners did not obtain full rights in obtaining assimilation. to get assimilation, prisoners must go through a correctional observation team, by listening to the community research report, after holding a hearing and then being proposed to the head of the regional office of the ministry of justice, then issuing a decree stating that the person can carry out the assimilation process inside and outside the prison . the problem that is then faced is the number of supervisors who are responsible for prisoners who are undergoing assimilation, especially for those who carry out assimilation with third parties both government and private institutions so that assimilation is carried out mostly in prison only. officers who supervise prisoners who are undergoing assimilation outside of prison are all kplp (lapas pengawasan persatuan unit) officers and bimker (job guidance) officers. in addition, the role of judge wasmat in this matter must be put forward, considering that judge wasmat’s role has been less effective, because judge wasmat’s visit was only a formality, namely checking whether the verdict on the prisoner had been carried out. the giving of remission and assimilation should not be based on giving relief or gifts because of good behavior but rather a program as a means of fostering in the correctional process. thus too complex juridical and administrative requirements need to be reviewed. furthermore, regarding the right to obtain parole according to law 12 of 1995 concerning correctional childhood, it is given to prisoners who have served their prison term 2/3 of their imprisonment period of at least 9 months. one of the requirements that must be taken to obtain parole is the existence of a community research report from bapas, about families that will accept inmates, the circumstances of the surrounding community and other parties related to child prisoners. furthermore, community research, which is one of its functions, is to provide a report to the correctional observation team as a material consideration for giving parole. furthermore, the opinion of child inmates regarding the guidance carried out in the children, there are those who argue that it is more a form of retaliation and some are more coaching, or some inmates who consider the implementation of coaching in institutions, are still tending to retaliation. this should not happen because since the issuance of the correctional law and the juvenile court law the orientation of prisoner formation must be changed to a more humane direction. criminal decisions in the form of restrictions on freedom must not exceed the mistakes made by the child and must not ignore the sense of justice of the community.20 only what needs to be remembered here for children must be seen proportionally in the 20achmad, r.

implementation of human rights protection towards in penitentiary of children in makassar sense that coaching must be seen on a case by case basis. and all child development activities must be based on the basic idea of child protection, and coaching in correctional institutions must still try to change the “naughty nature of children” so that they can be good people, and the community is protected by the inclusion of children in prisons. guidance for child prisoners who are based on the assumption that imprisonment is retaliation is feared to bring a variety of consequences that harm the child, for example the occurrence of torture in the form of speech, care and placement. crimes carried out in prisons must be adjusted to the characteristics of the perpetrator. b. analysis factors influence human rights implementation for children on child penitentiary guidance in the child correctional institution has several factors that need attention because it can function as a supporting factor and can also be a limiting factor. these factors include the following: the pattern and layout of the building as stipulated in the decree of the minister of justice of the republic of indonesia no. m.o1. pl.01.01 in 1985 on april 11, 1985 concerning the building pattern of penitentiary institutions and state detention houses, it was necessary to realize this, because the pattern and layout of buildings were important factors to support the implementation of human rights for child prisoners with guidance in accordance with their objectives. correctional service. some of the factors that influence the location of the makassar penitentiary are: a. conditions and layout of makassar correctional buildings location this building is located on the outskirts of the city. in terms of transportation and communication there are no problems. however, because of this makassar correctional institution, the residents are not only from the surrounding area, but can also be from various parts of indonesia, so that it is certainly difficult for families who will visit their children. at present the state of spatial planning in the makassar penitentiary, especially the living space, is well-maintained and takes into account the human dignity and rights of children as human beings so that their basic needs are guaranteed. and correctional institutions have been designed while paying attention to privacy children’s and supporting the rehabilitation and integration of children into the community. b. facilities needed by makassar correctional institutions there are a number of facilities that have an influence on the implementation of fostering child inmates, namely; 1. administration room, which is where all administrative process activities are carried out. makassar correctional institutions have one administrative room that is quite adequate. volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 71 88 82 | implementation of human rights protection towards in penitentiary of children in makassar 2. reception room, which is the place for receiving admissions for newly arrived inmates in prisons. prisoners of newly arrived children are registered and given uniform clothing, which is then put into an orientation cell for some time to determine the next coaching program. this reception room is equipped with facilities for administrative purposes such as registration, shooting, finger marks and matters relating to the reception process. at the makassar penitentiary there is also a reception room for newly arrived inmates. 3. living room for child prisoners in the living room with medium standard security is subject still to supervision but not too tight. the equipment in this living room is the same as the equipment in the living room with maximum security, namely beds, small tables, cabinets, lighting. in the living room maximum security is still needed due to tight supervision because inmates are considered dangerous. regarding the living space of child inmates basically they are still between medium security and maximum security, because supervision is still carried out strictly and the room key is still held by the officer. indeed the classification of institutions with maximum security, medium security and minimum security is not in accordance with the needs of the prison system. the basis of this classification is only viewed from the security approach, as stated in article 13 of the criminal code and article 49-56 gestichten regulations. it is better to think about the condition of open prison buildings with minimum security standards or the need for semi-institutional facilities that are well coordinated within the framework of integrating children into the community. although this certainly requires careful planning and preparation which also requires the involvement of an independent institution and is supported by qualified officers. 4. the dining room, all prisoners eat in their cell rooms because the agency officers deliver the food directly. in this case the child has the right to get quality food and sufficient quantity that is adjusted to the growth and development of children and in accordance with health standards. 5. discipline cells, namely cells to place inmates who violate the rules or discipline of the rules that have been determined. lapas makassar has disciplined cells which are intended for child prisoners who violate the regulations. however, this discipline cell is not used because if there is a violation, it will be subject to sanction of reprimand, except for heavy violations. 6. cell orientation, which is to place new prisoners as a temporary residence, where they are studied here to determine the next program. makassar correctional institution has one orientation room, this cell is in accordance with its function in giving rights to child prisoners. volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 71 88 | 83 implementation of human rights protection towards in penitentiary of children in makassar 7. visiting room, which is the place for holding meetings with families. the makassar correctional institution has a visiting room that is united with the formation administration room. it’s just that in its implementation for current family visits even though it has a clear time limit, but sometimes violations still occur. usually it occurs in prisoners with high social status and also for visitors who are familiar with the officer, the period can be extended. 8. coaching room, in the framework of fostering prisoners. then we need rooms that function to support the realization of the coaching. 9. middle school study room (pursue package b) in accommodating educational and scientific activities, under the leadership of the regional office of the ministry of education and culture. the problem here is that not all child inmates can attend school here, because they have to take requirements, one of which is a letter information that they attended school before entering the penitentiary. 10. the work room (workshop) in makassar lapas currently has a workspace, which functions as a space for non-formal education. this room serves to carry out skills exercises such as painting, music, electronic skills, screen printing, sewing and plywood crafts. however, for some activities it is not fully implemented because of a shortage of teaching staff or experts in work guidance. 11. library room library space in this institution, although it is quite adequate, but the condition of the books is partially outdated with the contents of the book that are not actual / not updated. this certainly influences the process of fostering child inmates, because after all children have to get actual outside world information so that they do not miss information even though they are inside the institution. 12. auditorium room this room is intended as a multipurpose place for example to hold ceremonies, lectures, arts and so on. at present the multipurpose room is sufficiently functioned properly. for example, with more effective counseling. 13. places of worship in the makassar penitentiary there is one prayer room and one church room. this room serves to accommodate religious activities for inmates. physically this building is quite adequate, but it needs to be improved both qualitatively and quantitatively regarding religious programs. volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 71 88 84 | implementation of human rights protection towards in penitentiary of children in makassar 14. hospital at present the makassar penitentiary does not have a special hospital or clinic, there is only one room that is used for medical services for child prisoners who need examination and treatment. c. organizational structure work mechanisms, especially relations and command lines of command and staff should be able to be carried out efficiently so that the implementation of tasks in each work unit runs smoothly. each officer must understand and be able to carry out their duties in accordance with their respective authorities and responsibilities. however, discipline and the application of organizational structures should not be tasks that are slow, but are treated flexibly as long as they do not violate existing provisions. organizational structure is a formal pattern of activities and relationships among various subunits within the organization, and is a formal pattern of how people and jobs are grouped. d. the human resources quality of human resources must be endeavored to be able to answer the challenges and problems that always exist and emerge especially within the institution. with certain qualities, it means that officers must have the minimum qualifications needed in accordance with the demands of their field of work, both those possessed in accordance with their academic abilities and the abilities obtained from the tasks obtained from experience and training. correctional officers besides that must have the right and the same perception regarding the naughty nature of the child. until now, only a small number of prisons have conducted special debriefing on this issue. based on the information from the administration of this institution, even though the makassar lapas has sought to have its officers take part in exercises, leadership courses will however be inadequate in frequency, this is due to insufficient budget. in general, in dealing with these obstacles can be taken by way of working with universities and social agencies to provide debriefing in the face of students in all coaching activities. in addition, a administration personnel are needed where these management personnel have a comprehensive personnel plan that covers all aspects, including; recruitment, placement, formation, transfer, education and training, career development motivation. for example upgrading programs, education and courses have something to do with career development programs. and to be able to formulate a comprehensive personnel plan must first know the scope of the task of fostering correctional students, so that it can be known the needs of employees both in quality and quantity, in this case including general administration staff, and experts such as psychologists, sociologists, community volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 71 88 | 85 implementation of human rights protection towards in penitentiary of children in makassar officers . thus the increase of human resources in order to provide guidance for child prisoners is expected to be able to realize the idea of correcting for children. in addition, the increase in human resources is also in line with what is stated in the beijing rules for the take part. thus in juvenile justice (in this case in particular the juvenile correctional institution) experts are needed in their field. for this reason, expertise education, training, and courses are also needed, so that guidance for child prisoners will be more meaningful. this training and education is carried out both for new employees to be able to understand and carry out the tasks assigned to them as well as for old employees to improve the quality of their duties. basically this training and education program is implemented is a continuous process and not just a momentary process. the purpose of fostering child inmates will be achieved well if it is carried out by employees who can carry out their duties efficiently and effectively, so that human resource development is needed. e. management management is closely related to leadership quality, organizational structure and capabilities and management skills (managerial skills) from the top of the leadership and staff so that administrative management in the correctional environment as well as its relationship with the cabruit prison and bapas can run orderly and smoothly. conclusion limitation of criminal penalties for children is very necessary to see the facilities and infrastructure of the makassar city penitentiary that accommodate children with problems with inadequate laws, in order to realize the ideal punishment system for children. in addition, the image of the child can be taken into consideration in the application of criminal penalties against children, because the results of this study indicate that the various concerns of the main children’s parents feel embarrassed that not only children who bear the burden, but also parents of children who have problems with the law. separation of prisoners based only on sex carried out in the form of blocks, is not an application that is in accordance with the law, which can have a detrimental effect on the obstruction of physical and psychological development of children in prisons. erroneous perceptions of child classification not carried out by the implementing apparatus added to the severity of the system of implementing child convictions oriented to perpetrators of crimes that entered the penal institutions that did not need to be distinguished because they both contained criminals. the responsibility of the implementing apparatus seems to be lacking in legal certainty related to the implementation of unspoken concrete responsibilities related to the pattern of service and implementation of child protection in correctional institutions, volume 2, issue 1, june 2019 : 71 88 86 | implementation of human rights protection towards in penitentiary of children in makassar giving rise to the impression that there is corrupt behavior that causes out of sync between legal objectives and legal functions law enforcement in the field. on the other hand, this paper also states a variety of factors that can affect the non-implementation of human rights protection for the government, including the condition and layout of buildings that do not rethink their suitability, supporting facilities and infrastructure in implementing legal protection for child prisoners, structures organization that does not work as it is ideally implemented, quality of implementing resources and implementing management. suggestion the need to provide facilities that guarantee the needs of children in social institutions, as an effort to foster children in a sustainable and more specific way, because children are the generation of a nation that has a long future and can still be improved. judges in making fair decisions must at least pay attention to the rights of children fundamentally, and no less important is the readiness of implementing resources and the facilities available in realizing children’s rights. implementation of guidance in the child correctional institution there are factors that need attention because can function as a supporting factor and can also be a limiting factor. these factors include the following: the pattern and layout of the building as stipulated in the decree of the minister of justice of the republic of indonesia no. m.o1.pl.01.01 in 1985 on april 11, 1985 concerning the building pattern of penitentiary institutions and state detention houses, it was necessary to realize this, because the pattern and layout of buildings were important factors to support the implementation of human rights for child prisoners with guidance in accordance with their objectives. correctional service. reference abdullah, r. h.

regional autonomy; border area introduction article 33 of the 1945 constitution of the republic of indonesia whose purpose is for the welfare of the people, all potentials in the field of economic development, especially earth, water, and natural wealth must be maximized as the maximum goal is for the prosperity of the people. the highest authority holder, the interests of the people must be prioritized by involving the state as the movers, organizers and executors of development with the aim of the people’s prosperity, as the national development vision and mission of 2005 – 2025 refers to the country’s goals as outlined in chapter iii of the republic of indonesia number 17 in 2007 concerning the national long-term development plan and the core of a just, prosperous, and independent nation that is also the driving force, implementer and object of national development, the people also have the right to enjoy the results of development all of which are carried out for the benefit of the people by the people and https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ mailto:rietha_lontoh@yahoo.com volume 2, issue 2, december 2019 : 118 136 problems of border regions in ensuring legal certainty invest in indonesia | 119 for the people who prioritize justice in nation-building. the stream of expediency with the motto “the greatest happiness of the greatest number” emphasizes the importance of government intervention to create maximum happiness for many people.1 vision and mission will be realized if optimally and the potential possessed by maximizing natural resources as the main capital of national development an important task of the government is to realize indonesia as a welfare state with the aim of advancing public welfare and social justice, namely by establishing various public policies in order to improve social welfare. this does not conflict with the thought of the flow of law that emphasizes the achievement of happiness as much as possible for many people, known as utilitarianism. utility theory states that the law aims to realize only what is beneficial.2 good and bad law in managing a country’s economy must be measured by the merits of the consequences resulting from the application of the law. this means that a new legal provision can be judged well if the consequences resulting from its application are good, maximum happiness and less suffering.3 the economic growth of a region also depends on the geographical factors of a region. the geostrategic concept is not associated with the development of the concept of development policies and strategies that motivated the economic benefits, but also capable of bringing glory development of a country in various fields who not only seek economic profit as the main objective, but also build strength, influence, and the glory of the country.4 the implementation of government affairs by the regional government is carried out based on the principle of autonomy and co-administration, which means that the rights, authorities and obligations of the autonomous region to regulate and manage their own government affairs and the interests of the local community, because the government realizes that central government affairs which are the authority of the central government cannot possibly be carried out as well as possible by the central government in the interests of public service governance and the welfare of the people in all regions. considering the geographical, political, legal, social and cultural conditions that are very diverse and patterned, and the territory of the unitary republic of indonesia is so broad that it encompasses various islands, it is very appropriate to provide autonomous policies so that each region will be more capable and independent to provide service and improvement of people’s welfare in the area. this change and development is a characteristic of the modern state which places more emphasis on improving people’s welfare.5 1riyanto, astim.

economic development is carried out in accordance with the national development planning system, which was compiled in the law of the republic of indonesia number 25 of 2004 concerning the national development planning system, with one of the considerations that the government of the indonesian state was formed to protect all the people of indonesia and all of indonesia’s blood spills, advancing general welfare, educating the nation’s life and participating in carrying out world order. a more detailed description of the national development planning system is contained in the form of law no. 17 of 2007 concerning the national long-term development plan 2005 – 2025 (rpjpn 2005 – 2025) and is now in the third period as outlined in the republic of indonesia presidential regulation (perpres) number 2 of 2015 concerning the 2015 – 2019 national medium-term development plan. improving the investment climate is based on the fact that the lack of interest of foreign investors to indonesia due to various constraints, which in turn inhibits the efforts of investors or cause the transfer of business to another country. the problems faced by, among others: 1. the lack of legal certainty among others, reflected a delay in settlement of cases of investment, 2. the licensing procedure and manner of bureaucratic service, takes time and is expensive, 3. the lack of investment incentives granted, 4. uneven infrastructure and damage to a number of infrastructure in the regions have hampered the smooth expedition and distribution of people, goods and capital for investment activities, 5. the employment climate less conducive to supporting the investment activities that include quality up to wage. investment activities are defined as capital formation in the form of expenditures made by investors to purchase capital goods and production equipment to increase the ability to produce goods and services available in a country’s economy, and economic growth in a country can occur if supported by there is an investment flow (direct investment) in the country. the presence of direct investment in general provides positive benefits for the host country, consumers and local business partners in the investment destination country. indonesia’s economic system showed that indonesia’s economic development can’t be separated from international economic activities. the presence of the investment law is an example that indonesia’s economic development cannot be carried out on its own. the presence of foreign capital in indonesia’s economic development is a

with other countries such as china and india. to find out how the role of foreign investment in the indonesian economy is still relatively little research conducted to measure specifically the role of foreign investment. since the enactment of the foreign investment law in 1967 and replaced with law of the republic of indonesia number 25 of 2007 concerning investment, investment development both in terms of the total investment value and the number of companies per year, fluctuates from year to year. fluctuations both in terms of value and number of companies heavily influenced by government policy in the field of foreign investment both foreign and domestic, from time to time, have ups and downs, which means that at any given moment, discretion is rigorous but at other times relatively loose. the law contains the norms that regulate, govern, force and prohibit and so on. the norm does not understand whether the norm will be effective or not. term development of the law has a broader meaning, thorough and fundamental than the term law reform, legal guidance. legal reform implies constructing a legal system to adjust to changing society. economic growth activities are strongly supported by development funds that can be obtained through savings and investment activities. this investment activity influences contributing to economic growth. the law is very instrumental in increasing economic efficiency through investment activities, for example, that the rule of law that provides guarantees of certainty will attract investors. economic development resulted in a fundamental shift in world trade. this not only has a significant impact on the country but also on all forms of regional and multilateral cooperation. investment is a key enabler which can encourage the growth of industry and trade sector activities and the creation of a good balance between sectors and trade as well as the creation of a balance across sectors and economic actors in restoring economic growth.20 investment activities or investments both foreign and domestic have an impact on economic growth, this is due to the development of capital from government sources that there are limitations to investment must be minimized and reorganized. legal certainty can give a value for the investor to take their investment policies. if the investment activities in indonesia have a good opportunity, in the sense of a very high level of investment return for investors it is a fortune. b. legal arrangements investment gives certainty and legal protection for investors following the nature of the law that is the law that regulates also the law that resolves disputes. legal certainty is created by written regulations made by the 20halwani, hendra.

(1999). ketertiban yang adil: problematik filsafat hukum. jakarta: grasindo, pp. 150 – 151. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ volume 2, issue 2, december 2019 : 118 136 problems of border regions in ensuring legal certainty invest in indonesia | 127 understanding of the decision does not depend on one’s interpretation, not multiple interpretations so that everyone who faces the decision must be able to grasp what is meant in the decision.23,24 another important investment activity is obedience in contract matters, because if not, then it is an indicator of violations of legal protection due to lack of legal certainty. the indonesian people have explicitly stated in the 1945 constitution of the republic of indonesia that indonesia is a state of law, this means that all activities must be based on existing legal norms, including investors and recipients of capital in carrying out business activities in it is investing. this means that if an investor is going to make an investment in addition to having to pay attention to investment law, he must also understand the various provisions related to investment because it is important to know that the rules are made so that those who will enter the business realm to be carried out already understand the rules set.25 if a company that has obtained a business license by considering the benefits that will be obtained when running a business that has received an investment license is suddenly revoked its license, in this case it requires consistency and consequences in granting a license so that it does not violate the established legal signs so that investors feel comfortable in investing. the principle is that the relationship between investors as owners of capital and recipients of capital is very closely related because investors will be willing to invest their capital if the state as a recipient of capital can provide and guarantee legal certainty, legal protection and a sense of investment security. in the absence of legal certainty, legal protection and security it is impossible for an investor is willing to invest.26 but in reality the judge also provides multi-interpretation of the rule, for example in derivative agreements in the stock market, on the one hand derivative agreements is justified by the act but often judges rests on the provisions of articles contained in the draft civil code that does not justify derivative agreements because it is categorized as a profit agreement, conducive regulations are needed that can provide protection and legal certainty in carrying out investment activities in indonesia. economic development must be carried out in a consistent, joint and complementary and supportive manner so that growth leading to stable economic development increases to produce a just and prosperous state goal.27 economic achievement in improving the lives of many people certainly cannot be separated from 23fahmal, a. muin.

(2) the occurrence of individual anomalies; (3) weak and paralyzed social control mechanisms; and (4) the occurrence of stress and turbulence of social values. therefore, social movements can occur in any community, including indigenous people.2 the protagonist in the indonesian indigenous movement is the alliance of indigenous peoples of the archipelago (aliansi masyarakat adat nusantara, henceforth aman). aman was established in 1999 in jakarta as an umbrella network organization for indonesia’s indigenous adat communities. although the word ‘adat’ has many meanings in indonesian, it is generally used to refer to custom, traditions or local norms and morals.3 in recent years, the organization has grown extensively to become an important political player in the domain of rural and environmental justice activism.4 advocates of indigenous rights hold that there are 50-70 million indigenous people in indonesia, accounting for roughly 20 to 30 percent of the country’s population.5 as of 2017, aman has 2.304 member communities, reportedly comprising 17 million people.6 aman defines adat communities as communities who live on land that has been passed 1 the english term "indigenous" comes from the latin "indigenae" which is used to distinguish between people who are born in a certain place and those who come from other places (advenae). in political discourse and the human rights movement, indigenous people are commonly referred to as indigenous peoples. they are called indigenous because the roots of their lives have become an inseparable unity with the land and the area in which they inhabit. they are also called peoples in the sense that they are a unique community with their existence and identity that is continuously hereditary, connecting them with communities, tribes, or nations from their history. in m. hatta roma tampubolon, givu as criminal sanctions tau taa wana indigenous people and its relevance to the national criminal justice reform, (disertation, pdih, brawijaya university, malang, 2014). tampubolon, m., & roma, h.

"capitalism" oxford dictionaries. "capitalism an economic and political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state." capital owners in doing their business try to achieve maximum profits. with this principle, the government cannot intervene in the market to obtain mutual benefits, but government intervention is carried out on a large scale for personal interests. "capitalism, as a mode of production, is an economic system of manufacture and exchange which is geared toward the production and sale of commodities within a market for profit, where the manufacture of commodities consists of the use of the formally free labor of workers in exchange for a wage to create commodities in which the manufacturer extracts surplus value from the labor of the workers in terms of the difference between the wages paid to the worker and the value of the commodity produced by him / her to generate that profit. jenks, c. (ed.).

protection of the tau taa wana indigenous peoples, but the state must reiterate the customary communal forest management rights because until now the customary law community of tau taa wana is still threatened by the expansion of capitalism. capitalist expansion which has been a frightening thing for the customary law community of tau taa wana is a project to expand oil palm plantations by a local company, pt. kurnia luwuk sejati (kls), is owned by a central sulawesi bourgeoisie, murad husain who has been expanding in the customary forest area of the tau taa wana customary community since 2007. in the oil palm expansion project, the company employs tau taa wana farmers in the process of breeding, clearing land until planting. various sources say that oil palm land owned by farmers from the tau taa wana indigenous community was obtained easily by means of a program of distributing basic needs to tau taa wana through collaboration between the company and the regional government. but in the end this was regretted by the indigenous law community of taa wana because they had worried about the future of their agricultural land which could be replaced by oil palm land. in addition, capitalist hegemony to acquire the land of tau taa wana farmers is done by utilizing village officials to persuade residents to sell land to the company for various reasons that are deliberately made rational. besides pt. kurnia luwuk sejati, there are other companies that have been working to expand the area around the customary forest community of the taa wana indigenous law in the north bungku region, such as pt. rajawali, with a planned land target of 15.000 ha., this indicates that the tau taa wana indigenous community is increasingly in a circle of regional capitalist expansion. moreover, many residents' lands have been sold to capital owners since the 90s, and even many members of the tau taa wana customary law community in the taronggo village area no longer have arable land to enable them to move to other places. finally, land which was once the main source of food production for meeting the basic needs of local communities, has now disappeared and replaced with land owned by capitalist palm oil production. b. the threat of loss of communal natural resources capitalist expansion through oil palm expansion seems to create a new problem that is feared by the indigenous law community of taa wana, namely the threat of loss of communal natural resources in the form of forests and customary land. why is that? because the tau taa wana customary law community does not merely treat customary land and forests as a material aspect or a mere means of production, but is interpreted and believed to be the source of life or the giver of life on earth. so whatever the consequences, customary lands and forests must be defended collectively. volume 3, issue 2, december 2020 : 147 166 legal and problematic protection | 155 the emergence of the problem of oil palm expansion in the lives of indigenous and tribal peoples tau taa wana causes them not only to feel the loss of forests and customary land, but also local wisdom that has a fundamental relationship between life between humans, jagar raya (nature) and god. because, during its civilization, the customary law community of tau taa wana is very compliant with customary law, especially in preserving customary forests as a source of communal governance, which is often proven by the implementation of traditional rituals. the purpose of traditional rituals is believed to be a form of repelling or avoidance of various natural disasters and epidemics and the preservation of customary forests as a source of livelihood on earth. local wisdom in maintaining the integrity of natural resources has received support from the local government with recognition through morowali district regulation no. 13 of 2012 concerning recognition and protection of wana tribal customary law communities, in article 4 paragraph (2) customary law as referred to in article 3 letter b is the order of life that is obeyed by wana tribal customary communities and is enforced by an adat institution. the hidden meaning contained in the policy implies that in the tau taa wana customary law system, the existence of customary social and cultural laws and institutions is functional towards the preservation, balance and harmony of social relations and relations with nature / the environment. local wisdom possessed is internalized, practiced and socialized everyday to form normative behavior patterns based on local contexts. especially concerning the relationship between humans and nature through the preservation of customary forests. that is why the expansion of oil palm lands is not only considered a real threat, it is also seen to be in conflict with the values of the local wisdom of the indigenous people of the taa wana community, which views that the sequence of humans, nature and god is something that must be balanced. damaging the forest and customary land is believed to damage the relations of the three that have been running in harmony. for capitalism that nature is a servant to their desires so that exploitation of nature is considered rational. as for the customary law community of taa wana, that they are servants for nature, so nature must be treated fairly and wisely. that is why the customary law community of taa wana treats nature (forests and land) simply. they are limited to hunting for food today and storing rice granaries for tomorrow. they do not think about conquering nature by means of destruction and exploitation, but rather manage nature by simply based on local wisdom. forests and land as a source of life, for the customary law community of taa wana is a mandate that must be maintained and believed. because, forests and land are the only natural resources they have. rice, wood, animal labor, and medicine, all come from volume 3, issue 2, december 2020 : 147 – 166 156 | legal and problematic protection the forest and the land so that it becomes a kind of spirit of the people of taa wana's customary law. so that the loss of natural resources, for the customary law community tau taa wana is the same as losing the source of life on earth. c. defend customary rights and local wisdom the customary law community of tau taa wana is an indigenous community that inhabits forest areas with a modest social system pattern, very close social relations and is bound by moral consensus sourced from local customs. the tau taa wana traditional law community social movement is a collective effort to defend customary rights, including defending natural resources in the form of forests and customary lands that are managed communally and hereditary. the inclusion of the oil palm plantation expansion project that has touched part of the customary forest lands of the tau taa wana indigenous community is a burden for them. so far, the tau taa wana traditional law community believes that the forest and customary land are hereditary. they also believe that customary forests are not state forests so that neither the state nor outsiders have the right to manage them, including investing their customary forests. the belief of the customary law community of tau taa wana has indeed been supported by state policy through constitutional court decree no. 35 / puu-x / 2012 which recognizes that customary forests are not state forests with the implication that the state returns customary forests to indigenous peoples. to understand the local claim-making, a particularly important achievement to address here is ruling 35 of 2012 of the indonesian constitutional court, which altered the legal regime on forestry. in 2012, aman and two of its member communities submitted a case before the court, arguing that the limited recognition in the 1999 basic forestry law of communal forests belonging to adat communities contradicted the indonesian constitution. the court agreed and decided on an alteration of the law. in may 2013, it ruled that communal adat forests would no longer be part of the state forest zone, but were to become collectively owned by adat communities.24 many considered the ruling a groundbreaking landmark for rural communities across the archipelago.25 rachman and 24 the state forest zone is state land administered as forest and comprises around 63 percent of indonesia’s landmass. three years after the ruling 35/2012 of the indonesian constitutional court, in december 2016, the ministry of forestry and environment for the first time formally recognized a number of adat forests. the initial transfer of land title however constituted only 13,000 hectares. in comparison, there were 450 serious agrarian conflicts nationwide in 2016 involving the contestation over almost 1.3 million hectares of state-owned land. the majority of this land, 600,000 hectares, concerned plantation concession land (mostly palm oil plantations) while another 400,000 hectares was disputed land administered as ‘state forest’. viewed from this perspective, 13,000 hectares constitutes a mere fraction of the land under dispute. some therefore wrote the land transfer off as merely a political gesture to boost the legitimacy of president joko widodo′s administration. for a critical account of the government’s ‘adat forest’ policy. agung hermansyah, ‘menindaklanjuti pengakuan hukum adat’ (geotimes, 29 juni 2017),

(2) the threat of loss of natural resources due to oil palm expansion on communal land; and (3) the presence of efforts to defend customary rights and local wisdom. the social movement of the tau taa wana indigenous people is a social 27 tampubolon, op.cit., 162-169. 28 ter haar in his book states that: the relationship between humans and the land, that is, the land where they live, the land that feeds them, the land where they are buried and which becomes the place of refuge for the spirits and the spirits of their ancestors, the land which permeates the faculties of life, including the lives of the people, and therefore depends on it, the relationship perceived and rooted in the realm of his mind can and should be considered as a legal relationship (rechtbetrekking) of humanity with the land. according to the legal dictionary, the customary rights are: the right of the customary law community to control the land and its contents in the area of its territory; a series of authority and obligations of a certain customary law community with a certain area, which is the environment and livelihood of its citizens for all time. customary rights (rechtbetrekkingrecht) are in the form of rights and obligations of the legal alliance as a whole over a certain area namely the area where they live. soetiknjo and ruwiastuti, said that customary rights came from the word region, which means the right to control customary land and for legal relations between the legal community and customary land, then hereinafter referred to as customary rights is the parent of management rights natural resources owned by the community. aminuddin, s.

(right now we are not expecting promises, what we need now is calm, we hope they will no longer come to disturb because we will not remain silent. we will continue to maintain what is left at this time, we will refuse and fight). however, the capitalist ways to win the goal none other than the road of violence, destruction to intimidation. all that is done without thinking about humanity. until now the tradition of capitalist expansion can still be felt. the validity of regional autonomy actually does not bring fresh air to the small community (marginal), but it is profitable for the capitalists and the regional political elite. the characteristic of regional autonomy that combines elements of society, government and the private sector turns out to bring problems in the form of domination which is apparently owned by the private sector in regional development efforts. the customary law community of taa wana has felt the impact of the development model that benefits the private sector (capitalist). similar conditions have also been felt by the toili community farmers in luwukregency who experienced oppression and injustice from a regional development process through the expansion of oil palm by the private sector (capitalists). palm oil expansion project by pt. kurnia luwuk sejati in 2009, which had entered the community plantation area, finally caused a big resistance from farmers with the intention of reclaiming the rights that had been seized, and finally brought disaster to 23 local farmers who were imprisoned with an environmental activist.34 thus, capitalist expansion is a major threat to the harmonization of the lives of the indigenous and tribal peoples of taa wana and other communities that have similar conditions. meanwhile, the threat of losing communal-based natural resources for the indigenous and tribal people of tau taa wana is a factor that will determine their destiny 31 interview with indo erna (53 years), totua ada (indigenous

future, especially if they do not receive structural support through consistent policies. looking at its history, the life of the tau taa wana indigenous people continues to be in the shadow of a massive structure that has not beencompletely impartial. this can be seen beginning when the minister of forestry decree no. 374 / kepts-vii / 1986 on 24 november 1986 concerning the establishment of the morowali nature reserve and the issuance of minister of forestry and plantation decree no. 757/kepts-ii / 1999 on 23 september 1999 concerning the appointment of 209.400 ha., of central sulawesi forest and waters, in which the decree had taken 25.526 ha., of the tau taa wana indigenous people forest area to be converted into a nature reserve. it means, that when the interests of the state speak through and move with policies, at that time the customary law community seems helpless when their customary lands are seized by the state. in addition, the expansion of capitalism that makes the tau taa wana indigenous people feel that losing their natural resources is deemed necessary to get state policy support for the protection of indigenous peoples, because between capitalist ideals and the ideals of indigenous and tribal peoples is quite the opposite. in society there are two opposing groups, which he calls dual society. the illustration of the dual movement is seen from the two principles of community regulation where, both of them set their own institutional goals, obtain support from certain social forces by using their own methods. the first is a movement with the principles of economic liberalism with the aim of building a private market, to free trade as a method. meanwhile, the only movement is a movement with the principle of social protection that aims to preserve people, nature and production arrangements, to find support from various associations that protect it. whereas the efforts of tau taa wana indigenous people in defending their customary rights and local wisdom are carried out with agricultural practices based on customary rules, including cosmically respecting customary forests and lands. the customary law community of tau taa wana believes that the mountain is the "body" and the river is the "soul" where the two elements must harmonize together. through this conception the tau taa wana indigenous people views land as a material-production element as well as a philosophical element considered to have a close relationship with humans. what is called land is a natural element that is closely intertwined with human institutions. traditionally, land and labor are an inseparable set of life and nature. thus, the land is closely related to the arrangement of kinship, neighborhood, expertise and belief in the communal circle of tribes, temples, villages, guilds and religion. at present the tau taa wana indigenous people are still seeking justice, protection and recognition of their existence and their customary territories which do not want to be intervened by the private sector, especially capitalists. the tau taa wana indigenous people is a part of this country that cannot be ignored and must receive positive volume 3, issue 2, december 2020 : 147 166 legal and problematic protection | 163 intervention, especially through policies that favor them. based on the description of the problem above, the importance of a social transformation to release the tau taa wana indigenous people and the capitalism confinement through several efforts including, returning costumery land and communal rights, the creation of equitable and without exploitative economic systems and relations and the government (state) must not be a steward of capitalists. conclusion the social movement of the tau taa wana indigenous people is caused by the imbalance of policies, the weak functioning of the state protection and the lack of state recognition of the existence of the tau taa wana indigenous people. this social movement is driven by external and internal factors. external factors are the threat of expansion of oil palm expansion by capitalists and the threat of loss of communal natural resources as a consequence of oil palm expansion. while internal factors are the growth of social solidarity in maintaining customary rights and local wisdom. it is recommended that the state's recognition and protection of the tau taa wana indigenous peoples be through regional and national policies. reference books alagappa, m.

or revocation of the relevant decision and issuing a new decision; or issuance of decisions in the case of a lawsuit based on article 3. the three types of liabilities are basically two liabilities, namely revocation of decree and issuance of new decree. both of them constitute the substance of the basic decision which is condemnatoir. an additional condemnatory decision is the obligation to pay compensation as article 97 paragraph (10) of the administrative court law and the obligation regarding rehabilitation as article 97 paragraph (11) of the administrative court law. based on article 97 there are 5 (five) items in the content of the decision which is condemnatoir, namely three obligations which include the principal and two obligations which include additional proposals. if the obligation in the decision is not carried out by the defendant on a voluntary basis, it is possible to carry out an execution because the condemnatory decision has an executive power. a. revocation of administrative decision after the decision of the state administration court whose sentence is conditional is handed down, the defendant namely the state administration body or official is obliged to carry out the contents of the decision. in its implementation, the defendant may be reluctant to implement the contents of https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ volume 2, issue 2, december 2019 : 89 117 discourses of legal certainty in execution of administrative court decision 96 | the decision voluntarily, so the implementation of the contents of the decision should be carried out by force through execution. related to the execution of the obligation to revoke a state administration decision, contained in article 97 paragraph (9) letter (a) of the administrative court law. the procedure for carrying out the execution of the decision containing the obligation to revoke this decision is regulated in article 116 paragraph (2) of the administrative court law, and after 60 (sixty) working days of the court’s decision the inkracht van gewisjde is received but by the defendant not carried out then the disputed decision has no legal force anymore. therefore, no other efforts are needed from the court, because the state administrative decision automatically loses its legal force which is commonly referred to as automatic execution.19 although not revoked, but the decision has no legal force anymore. regarding the revocation of the decision based on a court decision which is inkracht van gewisjde, for example, in the case of a plaintiff who faces a decision that is burdensome, for example related to the dismissal of an employee or an order to demolish a building. if the plaintiff’s lawsuit is granted by the court and the defendant is sentenced to revoke the said decision, the plaintiff will have obtained his rights only after the stipulated deadline, which is four months after the judicial decision which has permanent legal force is submitted to the defendant. b. issuance of new administrative decision the obligation to issue a new decree is regulated in two different articles, namely article 97 paragraph (9) letter b and article 97 paragraph (9) letter c of the administrative court law. there is a difference between the two articles, article 97 paragraph (9) letter b contains two obligations, namely revoking the plaintiff’s decision and issuing a new decision, and article 97 paragraph (9) letter c contains the obligation of the defendant to issue a decision if the lawsuit is based on article 3 paragraphs (1) through (3) of the administrative court law, which essentially states that if the defendant does not issue a decision, whereas it is the defendant’s obligation, then it is equated with the state administrative decree, both in terms of not issuance of the decision is requested over the time period or not specified time period but after four months from receipt of the request, the defendant is considered to have refused to issue the decision in question. 19sunge, maisara.

after the decision is decided, the government must determine the decision to implement the court’s decision. in the government administration act for defendants who do not comply with the contents of court decisions in accordance with article 53 paragraph (6) are threatened with administrative sanctions. these administrative sanctions are regulated in article 80 paragraph (2) of the government administration act, where the threat of violation of article 53 paragraph (6) is moderate administrative sanctions. what is meant by moderate administrative sanctions as stipulated in article 81 paragraph (2) of the government administration act namely forced payment or compensation; temporary dismissal with or without obtaining office rights. these sanctions are sanctions that are basically imposed on state administrative officials or their positions, and are not directly related to government administrative decisions, so that there will be no change without the willingness of the body or institution authorized to issue the decision. 3. constraints in execution of judicial decisions in state administration after the entry into force of the law on government administration after the government administrative law came into force, the execution of the judicial decision on the state administration must have experienced obstacles. the obstacle faced is precisely because of the contradictions between the regulation of the government administration act and the state administrative court law. constraints faced are mainly related to legal certainty for the enactment of the positive fictive principle adhered to by the government administration act which is the opposite of the negative fictive principle adhered to by the state administrative court law. the negative fictitious principle is regulated in the provision of article 3 of the state administrative court law, which basically stipulates that if the defendant party, namely an agency/institution/government official, has the obligation to issue a decision and they will not issue the decision requested within the stipulated time period on related legislation or if not regulated, based on article 3 paragraph (3) the law is limited to only 4 (four) months, then the silence of the agency/institution/ officer is the same as a state administration decree. the state administration decree is defined as a decision on the rejection of the application submitted. basically, the negative fictive principle is based on the silent attitude of the official/agency/institution upon a request to issue a decision, but the official/agency/ institution does not issue the said decision. the official silence is then assumed that the official/agency/institution has issued a decision but in fact never existed so it is called a fictitious decision. that the official silence means that the request is rejected, so that it is negative, so that the negative fictive principle is born. volume 2, issue 2, december 2019 : 89 117 discourses of legal certainty in execution of administrative court decision | 105 the negative fictive principle is the opposite of the positive fictive principle adhered to by the government administration act. this positive fictive principle in article 53 paragraphs (1) through (6) of the government administration act with provisions governing the time limit for obligations in the context of establishing/ making decisions or actions in accordance with the law, and in legislation does not determine the time limit for such obligations, the said government agency/ institution/official is obliged to stipulate/execute decisions and/or actions within a limit of up to ten working days after the application has been received in full by the agency/institution/official. if beyond this time, the agency and/or government official does not determine/make a decision or action, the request is deemed legally granted, and then the petitioner submits the application through the court in order to obtain a decision regarding receipt of the request. the court is required to decide on the application no later than twenty-one working days since the application was submitted, and it is stated that government agencies/institutions/ officials must determine the decision to implement the court’s decision no later than five working days after the court’s decision is determined. basically like a negative fictive principle, this positive fictive principle is also based on the attitude of silence from officials/institutions/state administrative bodies. the difference lies in the end result, where the positive fictive principle of silence actually means that the official accepts or grants the request in question. that the positive term in the positive fictive principle is defined as acceptance or granting of a request. the positive fictive principle then creates obstacles, how is its position with the negative fictive principle adhered to in the state administrative court law. as a solution, the legal preference used, namely the lex posterior derogate legi priori principle, applies to two equal rules and regulates the same problem to determine that the latest/newer rules outperform the older rules. in the process of drafting legislation (legislative drafting), generally when there is a new rule that is set and there are certain things in the previous regulations that are still valid or declared invalid will be regulated in the transitional rules of the new law. however, in the government administration law there are no rules that state explicitly that the article 3 of the state administrative court law is not related to a negative fictive administrative decision. the existence of two opposing principles, both the negative fictive principle and the positive fictive principle, of course also impact on the difference in the execution of the execution. if a lawsuit based on a negative fictive principle is granted, the court determines a decision containing the state administration agency or officer required to issue a state administration decree as requested by the plaintiff (deemed rejected on the basis of a negative fictive principle) as volume 2, issue 2, december 2019 : 89 117 discourses of legal certainty in execution of administrative court decision 106 | stipulated in article 97 paragraph (9) letter c of the law state administrative court law. if the state administrative agency or officials as referred to in article 116 paragraph (3) of the state administrative court law in 90 days are reluctant to obey the decision, the plaintiff pleads with the chair of the state administrative court so that the defendant is ordered to carry out the contents of the decision. this actually does not seem to have any urgency because the chairperson of the tun court is required to oversee the implementation of the tun court’s decision which has been inkracht. after the request is submitted, if the body/institution/ official still refuses to implement the contents of the new decision then he may be subject to payment of a sum of forced money and/or administrative sanctions. unlike the case with executions related to positive fictive principles. if the time limit provided under article 53 paragraph (1) and (2) of the government administration act to issue a state administration decision and/or certain actions has passed, the applicant submits an application and not a lawsuit to the administrative court. the application is to obtain a decision on receipt of the request (not to obtain the determination as is usual in the administrative court application). five days after the decision of the state administrative court, the administrative agency or officer is determined to determine the decision to implement the decision. only then will article 53 paragraph (6) of the government administration act not be implemented, in this case the agency/institution/official may be subjected to moderate administrative sanctions, in the form of forced payment of money or compensation or temporary dismissal with/without obtaining office rights. another obstacle in the execution of the judicial decision on state administration after the enactment of the government administration act is the absence of formal rules or procedural law governing the implementation of positive fictive principles. this has long been a concern of the judiciary, especially the judges at the state administrative court, apparently there has been no follow-up from the legislative body to draw up formal regulations related to this matter. the supreme court then took the initiative to resolve this problem by issuing a supreme court regulation no. 5 of 2015 concerning guidelines for procedures for obtaining a decision on acceptance of requests to obtain decisions and/or actions of government agencies or officers (perma no. 5/2015), issued as the embodiment of the authority of the state administrative court as regulated in article 53 of the government administration law, regarding the authority of the court to examine and decide upon the receipt of an application to obtain a decision and/or actions of government agencies/institutions/officers. that article 53 is the basis of implementing positive fictive principles in the state administrative court. because it was considered not to provide clear guidance for volume 2, issue 2, december 2019 : 89 117 discourses of legal certainty in execution of administrative court decision | 107 judges in adjudicating cases related to the application of positive fictive principles, the perma no. 5 of 2015 was then replaced by supreme court regulation no. 8 of 2017 concerning guidelines for procedures to obtain decisions on acceptance of requests to obtain decisions and/or actions government agency or officials (regulation no. 8 of 2017). regarding the implementation of positive fictive principles, government bodies and/or officials who are reluctant or disobey the contents of decisions related to the implementation of the principle are threatened with moderate administrative sanctions. these sanctions are imposed on state administrative officials or their positions, not directly related to the administrative decisions themselves. so another obstacle is that there will be no change without the willingness of government agencies/institutions/officials to issue the decision. in addition, the imposition of sanctions is also unclear the legal basis that becomes the reference and there are no implementing regulations. so after the government administration act regarding the execution of the judicial ruling the state administration still faces many obstacles in its implementation so it does not reflect legal certainty. 4. legal certainty for the community in provisions for execution of judicial decisions in state administration after the entry into force of the government administration act in carrying out the execution process, of course the ultimate goal is for a court decision to be carried out. the implementation of the decision must of course have a legal basis regulating who is authorized to order and lead the execution, who carries out the execution, and how the execution procedure is carried out. the rule of law regarding executions in judicial bodies is very crucial. execution is a step that justitiabelen is expected to provide justice for a case that it faces. if we talk about law enforcement, the execution process is the last step especially if the judicial decision is not heeded. not implementing a court decision can occur in a state administration case. however, the decision of the state administrative court is very dependent on legal awareness or the willingness of the officials concerned to implement the contents of the decision32 or often referred to as execution based on self respect. the importance of execution in implementing decisions is related to one of law enforcement functions, namely legal certainty, as well as justice and expediency. legal certainty is a guarantee for those entitled according to law to be able to obtain their rights and that a decision can be implemented, because it is a 32rafiqi, rafiqi.

the unclear time or when can be determined the amount of forced money that must be paid; and it is unclear whether the imposition of forced money, whether charged to the agency/institution/administrative officer or the personal government official. second, the unclear implementation of administrative sanctions that is not yet clear what types of sanctions can be applied; it is not clear about the basic regulations regarding administrative sanctions that can be used as a reference; and the mechanism and procedures for implementing administrative sanctions are not yet clear. after the entry into force of the government administration law, specifically article 54, is related to the implementation of a positive fictive principle, because the silence of the agency/institution/state administration officer is considered approval, if the request for acceptance of the ruling by the applicant is granted, the administrative court then determines the decision to accept the request. obligations that must be carried out by the related agency/institution/official are then to determine the decision to implement the decision to accept the application by the court. the decision (by the state administration agency/officer/institution) to execute the decision to accept the application by the court is constitutive or declarative in nature. referring to article 17 number 2 of the supreme court regulation no. 8 of 2017, if the court accepts the petition for the decision to accept the petition to read the petitioner’s request and requires the agency/institution/ government official to issue a decree/take action referring to the petitioner’s request. so the contents of the decision to accept the application by the court in the government administration act is an obligation for the administrative agency/ institution/official to issue a decision/take action. the obscurity of forced efforts related to the execution of the execution was also experienced in the implementation of article 81 paragraph (2) of the government administration act. the forced effort is closely related to the execution of the decision to accept the application based on the implementation 36lotulung, paulus effendi.

| 111 of a positive fictive principle that was not carried out by the state administrative body/official. where sanctions in the government administration act are basically similar to sanctions as for the state administrative court act that is forced money (dwangsom) or temporary dismissal with/without obtaining office rights. regarding forced money, there are no implementing regulations related to the procedures and mechanism for the payment of forced money that regulates the procedure for imposition, both time, the amount of forced money to be paid and related to the subject of imposition of forced money, whether charged to the agency/administrative officer or to the person of the administrative official. as well as the temporary dismissal, there are no specific implementation rules yet so that this effort cannot be implemented. from this description, the lack of legal certainty related to execution in the state administrative court law. in addition to the revocation of the state administrative decree as referred to in article 97 paragraph (9) letter a of the state administrative court act, for which automatic execution applies as stipulated in article 116 paragraph (2) of the state administrative court law, the execution of execution in administrative court is basically again, it depends on the awareness and good intentions of the state administrative body/officials to carry out the content of the decision in a self respect manner which results in legal uncertainty. that is because only the state administrative body/officials can carry out the contents of the decision. in addition, forced efforts to encourage the implementation of the contents of the decision are also unclear, so the regulations cannot be implemented. the public interest will potentially be greatly harmed because in terms of the execution provisions of the state administrative court decision the execution of the execution is related to the defendant’s obligation to issue a state administrative decision depending on the will or good will of the defendant. the forced effort as an effort related to the execution of the court’s decision cannot be realized. so if the defendant is reluctant/does not implement the contents of the decision, the execution of the state administrative court’s decision cannot be carried out. conclusion based on the study examined in this paper, it can be concluded that the verdict of the state administrative court can be executed is the verdict of the state administrative court inkracht van gewisdje (which has permanent legal force) and is condemnatoir. there are two things that require the execution of the defendant’s obligations related to the revocation of the decree and the defendant’s obligations related to the issuance of the state administration decree and/or taking action. the obligation is accompanied by the imposition of compensation and the provision of rehabilitation. the provisions of execution of the execution of the decision volume 2, issue 2, december 2019 : 89 117 discourses of legal certainty in execution of administrative court decision 112 | related to the obligations of the defendant to revoke the decision are sufficient, through the provisions of automatic execution. on the other hand there is a legal vacuum related to the provisions of the execution of the decision containing the defendant’s obligation to issue a new and replacement state administration decision. the legal vacuum is because the unclear regulation regarding forced efforts and forced money reflects the lack of legal certainty regarding the execution of execution in state administrative courts. constraints faced in the implementation of the execution of the decision of the administrative court after the enactment of the government administration act are still the same as before the enactment of the law. where there are four things that become obstacles, namely who orders and leads the execution, who carries out the execution, and how the procedures are carried out, the law does not regulate and then the implementation cannot be forced because it is highly dependent on government organs. the element of coercion as a characteristic of execution is not apparent, so potentially there is a possibility of being unworkable. because the execution of the administrative dispute is still based on self respect, and due to unclear rules both in the administrative court law and the government administration law and the absence of implementing regulations related to forced efforts, the defendant’s obligation to carry out his obligation to issue state administrative decisions cannot be forced, so that potentially could not be implemented, causing legal uncertainty. that is because the rights of the people contained in the state administration court ruling that inkracht van gewisjde cannot be realized. so that people do not get legal certainty in terms of the provisions and implementation of the execution of the state administrative court which is their right. reference astomo, putera.
