This study analyzes the corporate crime perspective and directors’ liability in the LNG procurement case at Pertamina as a State-Owned Enterprise (SOE). The research aims to examine how the elements of corporate crime are constructed, how directors’ actions are assessed within the framework of fiduciary duty and the business judgment rule, and what legal implications arise for corporate accountability in SOEs. The study employs a normative juridical method using a case approach, statute approach, and conceptual approach. Primary data consist of court documents, statutes, and regulatory frameworks, while secondary data are obtained from academic journals, institutional reports, and credible publications. The findings reveal that distinguishing legitimate business risk from abuse of authority is central to determining corporate criminal liability, particularly when decisions intersect with state finances and public interests. The analysis further indicates that SOE directors carry dual obligations: to ensure effective corporate governance while at the same time facing heightened exposure to criminal liability when losses are associated with state assets. This study contributes by clarifying how legal assessments should balance accountability with the protection of reasonable managerial discretion. The implications highlight the need for clearer decision-making standards, stronger governance mechanisms, and better alignment between corporate law and anti-corruption frameworks in order to promote legal certainty without discouraging prudent business judgment.

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) in the digital age offers substantial benefits by enhancing efficiency and productivity. Nevertheless, these developments also pose significant challenges to the protection of human rights. Issues such as privacy violations, algorithmic bias, discrimination, and opaque automated decision-making highlight the need for a strong integration of ethical values and legal frameworks in the use of AI. This study applies a normative legal method supported by literature-based research to examine the existing regulatory frameworks and the ethical principles underpinning them. The findings indicate that ethical principles such as transparency, accountability, fairness, and human-centeredness serve as essential moral guidelines to prevent AI misuse. Meanwhile, legal rules ensure certainty, establish accountability mechanisms, and provide sanctions for violations. The synergy between ethics and law forms a crucial foundation to ensure that technological innovation aligns with the protection of human rights, upholds human dignity, and supports the creation of a safe and just digital environment

This study examines Terra Drone Indonesia's implementation of management dialogue in addressing crisis communication following a fire at the company's office building. The incident sparked a wave of negative sentiment on Instagram, marked by increased public comments assessing occupational safety, data security, and the company's transparency in conveying information related to the legal process. The study used a qualitative approach with a case study method to understand how the company developed a crisis communication strategy through official statements published on social media. Data were analyzed based on dialogic elements of communication, particularly empathy for victims, humanitarian commitment, and the company's position and normative and defensive stance in affirming legal handling and compliance measures. The results show that the company attempted to balance an empathetic narrative to mitigate public pressure with a defensive strategy to maintain institutional legitimacy. However, the dynamics of public opinion on Instagram indicate that the company's response has not fully met the expectations of two-way communication. This is evident in the dominance of one-way communication patterns and the lack of technical clarifications needed by the public, thus creating a productive economic outlook. Overall, dialogic management has been implemented responsively, but has not been optimal in building a space for dialogue and public trust as a whole.

The 21st century is marked by a profound transformation in digital communication. Social media has become a new public space, enabling people to interact, disseminate information, and shape public opinion rapidly and massively. This article analyzes the role of social media in shaping public opinion and its influence on the dynamics of government policy in Indonesia. Through a literature review and case analysis of policies influenced by viral issues on social media, this study finds that social media increases citizen participation and accelerates government responses to public issues. However, the pattern of 'viral-based policy' also carries risks, such as reactive policies, a lack of evidence-based policies, and inequality in representation. To manage this phenomenon, the government needs to develop an inclusive digital communication strategy, establish an early detection system for public sentiment, and uphold the principles of good governance and evidence-based policy. These findings are relevant for academics and policymakers seeking to understand the interaction between social media, public opinion, and government policy in the digital era.

Network service disruptions are critical issues that can negatively affect public trust and corporate reputation in the telecommunications industry.

This study aims to analyze how the Public Relations division of PT Telkomsel manages issues in handling network service disruptions in Indonesia.This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach by analyzing secondary data, including literature studies, official corporate communications, and media coverage related to network service disruptions. The findings indicate that PT Telkomsel’s Public Relations implements issue management through several systematic stages, namely issue identification, issue analysis, communication strategy formulation, message dissemination, and evaluation. The communication strategy emphasizes transparency, rapid response, and the use of digital media as the main channel to communicate with the public.Effective issue management enables the company to reduce negative public perceptions and maintain customer trust. This study confirms that strategic and proactive public relations communication plays an important role in managing network service disruption issues and protecting corporate reputation.

This qualitative research, employing a literature review method, aims to dissect the massive influence of digital media on the shifting social structures of Generation Z. The findings indicate that technology has transformed interaction patterns from physical encounters to continuous digital communication, creating new forms of sociability that are expansive yet often superficial. The process of identity formation now relies heavily on self-curation in cyberspace, where digital metrics serve as benchmarks for validation, frequently triggering psychological pressure. This phenomenon also impacts the weakening of traditional parental authority due to the intergenerational digital divide. Although Gen Z is adept at building social capital through interest-based virtual communities, the risk of polarization remains a concern. Regarding value orientation, there is a shift toward authenticity and work flexibility that prioritizes personal meaning. Given its ambivalent impact on mental health, the study concludes that a synergy of robust digital literacy, strengthened family roles, and platform policies prioritizing user well-being is essential to navigate this social transformation.

Early childhood education is a fundamental phase in the formation of children's character, literacy skills, and social skills. However, children's basic literacy skills in various regions of Indonesia, including Aisyiyah 2 Aimas Kindergarten, Southwest Papua, are still relatively low, exacerbated by limited learning media, conventional teaching approaches, and teachers' lack of understanding of inclusive education and positive discipline. This study aims to analyze the implementation of basic literacy training with inclusive education and its impact on improving teacher competence. The method used is a one group pretest in the context of community service, involving six teachers as subjects. The program is carried out through three stages: pre-training (observation, interview, and pretest), training (literacy materials based on the DUBT model—Listen, Speak, Read, Write; inclusive education; and positive discipline), and post-training (posttest, classroom observation, reflection, and mentoring). The results showed a significant increase in teacher competence, as shown by the increase in the average pretest score from 57.5 to 84.8 in the posttest. In addition, 83% of teachers are able to implement literacy practices such as reading picture stories, letter cards, reading corners, and dialogue interactions with children. Teachers also began to show acceptance of children's diversity and applied positive discipline without punishment. These findings show that inclusion-based literacy training is effective in improving teachers' pedagogical knowledge and practices. This research emphasizes the importance of developing adaptive, humanist, and equitable literacy as the foundation of early childhood learning.

Local government budget management is a crucial element in regional governance, as it directly impacts accountability, transparency, and efficiency in public service delivery. To support effective regional financial management, the Indonesian Government has established the Government Internal Control System (SPIP), as stipulated in Government Regulation Number 60 of 2008. This study aims to examine the role and practical implementation of SPIP in regional budget management through a case study of the Regional Financial and Asset Management Agency (BPKAD) of Dumai City. Using a qualitative case study approach, this study analyzes regional financial documents, audit reports from the Regional Audit Agency (BPKAD), as well as laws and regulations and internal policies governing SPIP implementation. The results indicate that SPIP has been implemented in BPKAD Dumai City throughout the budget management cycle, from planning and implementation to reporting and accountability. However, its implementation has not reached an optimal level due to constraints such as limited leadership commitment, inadequate human resource capacity, and suboptimal internal oversight mechanisms. Therefore, improving SPIP implementation is a strategic step to realize accountable, transparent, and performance-oriented regional financial governance.

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of civil servant discipline enforcement based on Surabaya Mayor Regulation Number 44 of 2022 at Gubeng Subdistrict. The research employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis, and analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman within the Context–Mechanism–Outcome (CMO) framework. The findings indicate that the regulation has generally improved civil servant discipline, particularly in attendance, punctuality, administrative compliance, and public service quality. This improvement is supported by organizational context factors such as daily work culture, active leadership, and the integration of digital attendance systems. Key mechanisms driving compliance include layered supervision, persuasive coaching, and the gradual application of disciplinary sanctions. However, challenges remain, including high workloads and limited human resources, which require continuous guidance for certain employees. The study concludes that the effectiveness of civil servant discipline enforcement is largely shaped by the interaction between organizational context and policy implementation mechanisms.

Flood disasters are recurring hydrometeorological hazards that significantly impact social, economic, and environmental conditions in Tulungagung Regency. This study aims to analyze the flood disaster mitigation communication strategies implemented by the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) of Tulungagung Regency and to identify the roles, challenges, and implications of both internal and external communication in flood disaster management. The research employed a qualitative approach using a descriptive method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the Secretary of BPBD Tulungagung Regency, the Head of the Emergency and Logistics Division, the Head of the Prevention and Preparedness Division, and members of flood-affected communities. The findings reveal that BPBD Tulungagung Regency has attempted to optimize disaster communication during the pre-disaster, emergency response, and post-disaster phases. The effectiveness of these communication efforts remains limited due to several challenges, including inadequate communication infrastructure, varying levels of disaster literacy among community members, diverse geographical conditions, and insufficient coordination in internal and external communication. Pre-disaster communication plays an essential role in improving community preparedness, communication during emergency response supports timely and accurate decision-making, and post-disaster communication contributes to recovery processes and the strengthening of community resilience. This study concludes that optimizing disaster communication requires integrated information systems, improved human resource capacity within BPBD, and active community participation through community-based communication approaches to sustainably enhance resilience to flood risks.

The majority of Kebomas District's residents are connected to working hours during government office hours (Monday through Friday), which creates access obstacles in administering public services due to the high population density and busy community life. In response to these time constraints, the SOS MAS (Service On Saturday in Kebomas District) invention was introduced, which offers services on Saturdays. However, the implementation of this innovation still faces challenges in the form of a low social integration rate and a restricted range of public services that have the potential to sway public opinion. The goal of this research is to assess how the SOS MAS innovation affects community happiness in Kebomas District. A quantitative technique with an associative approach is used in this research. Through an unintentional sampling method, questionnaires were given to 86 individuals in order to gather primary data. With the aid of SPSS, the determinant coefficient and a simple linear regression test were used to analyze the data. The study's findings reveal that the SOS MAS invention has a favorable and substantial influence on community happiness. The regression coefficient of 0.969 and a significance level of 0.000 <0.05 support this. The innovation variable accounted for 59.7% of public happiness, while the remaining 40.3% was impacted by variables not included in the study model, according to the coefficient of determination (R2) test. This result supports the notion that the efficacy of service innovation outside of working hours is a major element in boosting happiness for individuals with limited time. The SOS MAS innovation has been shown to greatly improve public satisfaction. Agencies are encouraged to improve their communication and outreach efforts as well as create SOS MAS innovations that maximize the advantages of innovations that meet community needs.

Contemporary digital advancements have significantly impacted the manner in which individuals engage in economic activities, as evidenced by the rising volume of online transactions. While offering convenience and efficiency, electronic transactions also provide numerous legal challenges, especially regarding seller defaults, including delayed delivery, goods that do not conform to the agreement, or sellers failing to meet their duties post-payment by consumers. This scenario may result in consumer losses, necessitating sufficient legal certainty and protection. This study seeks to analyze the legal regulations pertaining to contracts and defaults in digital platform transactions and to evaluate the types of legal liabilities that may be placed on sellers. This study employs normative legal research, focusing on legislative and conceptual approaches, and utilizes primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials as data references. The study's findings reveal that seller liability regulations in electronic transactions are defined in the Civil Code, the Consumer Protection Law, and the Law on Electronic Information and Transactions. Nonetheless, its execution has several challenges, especially concerning evidence and the efficacy of law enforcement measures. Consequently, it is imperative to enhance the function of marketplaces and establish more adaptive legislative frameworks to guarantee consumer protection and restitution for losses in online commerce.  

Public transportation plays an important role in supporting community mobility and accelerating regional economic growth. To improve public transportation services in East Java, the East Java Provincial Transportation Agency introduced the Trans Jatim Bus system. However, its implementation still faces several challenges, including long bus arrival times, the use of mobile applications that are difficult for elderly users, and inconsistencies in the availability of supporting facilities such as seating and trash bins at bus stops. This study aims to analyze the quality of Trans Jatim Bus services based on the service quality dimensions proposed by Wirtz and Lovelock. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed using stages of data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that reliability has not met service standards due to prolonged waiting times. Responsiveness and assurance were found to meet service standards, as passengers expressed satisfaction with service responses and complaint handling. Empathy was considered adequate, although accessibility issues for elderly passengers remain. Tangible aspects were also sufficiently met, but inconsistencies were found in the provision of seating and trash bins at several bus stops. Based on these findings, the study recommends increasing the number of buses on corridor 2, evaluating bus schedules, conducting public awareness campaigns, and ensuring the consistent provision of seating and trash bins at all bus stops to improve overall service quality.

People with disabilities continue to experience barriers in accessing education, employment, and social participation, requiring active government involvement through inclusive programs. One such initiative is the International Disability Day event organized by the South Tangerang City Social Service in collaboration with Rumah I’m Star. This study aims to analyze the public relations activities of the South Tangerang City Social Service by examining problem identification, planning, implementation, and interpretation in organizing the event. The research is based on the public relations model of Cutlip, Center, and Broom, which includes four stages: defining the problem, planning and programming, taking action and communicating, and evaluating the program. A qualitative approach with a descriptive method was employed. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, involving purposively selected informants from the Public Relations Division of the Social Service, the founder of Rumah I’m Star, beneficiaries, and public relations experts. The findings show that the Social Service identified low public awareness of disability issues as the main problem and responded by developing a collaborative communication strategy with Rumah I’m Star. The activities implemented included art performances, talk shows, and a bazaar showcasing the works of persons with disabilities, which were disseminated digitally. Program evaluation was conducted internally without standardized measurement instruments, limiting interpretation to event outcomes and participant involvement. Overall, the study concludes that these public relations efforts enhanced government communication and promoted inclusion awareness, although broader public engagement is needed for sustainable impact.

The development of Islamic political thought cannot be separated from the historical context and social dynamics surrounding it. One significant period that influenced the direction of this thought is the era of Western colonialism in the 19th to early 20th centuries. During this period, much of the Islamic world was under Western colonial rule, which had a profound impact on the social, political, and intellectual conditions of Muslims. Within the Muslim community itself, various internal issues related to religious understanding arose, causing difficulties in facing the dominance and hegemony of the West. Islamic political thought became one of the fields of study in political science, which is not only relevant today but also gained attention during the classical Islamic period. This study is highly significant, both in the development of knowledge and as a framework for political practice. Therefore, it is important to study Islamic political thought, as it provides deep insights into political dynamics and Islam’s contribution to shaping existing political systems, as well as offering perspectives that are useful in facing contemporary global challenges.
