This study discusses the liability of directors for unlawful acts in the form of merging personal assets with corporate assets in the context of bankruptcy of limited liability companies. Although the principle of separation of assets protects the personal assets of directors, there are conditions in which this principle can be revealed through the principle of piercing the corporate veil. The merging of personal assets by directors, which causes losses or bankruptcy of the company, can be held accountable. The Limited Liability Company Law and the Civil Code emphasize that if proven to have committed unlawful acts or negligence in carrying out their duties, directors can be sued in civil court and their assets confiscated as part of the bankruptcy estate. This study applies a normative legal approach and a literature study method to analyze legal norms and the liability of directors for losses due to bankruptcy. The aim is to provide an understanding of the legal liability mechanism for directors who abuse their authority in managing corporate assets. By applying the principle of justice, directors can be held personally responsible for the protection of creditors and fair law enforcement.

Object detection in digital images is a crucial aspect of image processing and computer vision, with applications ranging from surveillance systems and robotics to image-based search. One commonly used approach is template matching, a technique that compares a template image with sections of the target image to identify similar patterns. This study explores the implementation of the template matching method for object recognition in digital images. The process begins with image preprocessing to enhance data quality, followed by a matching procedure using normalized cross-correlation. Experimental results indicate that this method can accurately detect objects under stable lighting and scale conditions. However, its performance decreases when images undergo rotation or scale variations. Therefore, while template matching proves effective under ideal conditions, further methodological development is needed to improve its robustness against geometric transformations.s

This study aims to examine immigration administration within the context of foreigner surveillance in Indonesia through a literature review approach. The primary focus is on policy analysis, implementation, challenges, and the effectiveness of surveillance systems based on legal documents, institutional reports, and recent academic publications. Findings indicate that Indonesia’s immigration policy has a relatively strong legal framework through Law No. 6 of 2011 and its derivative regulations. However, its implementation still faces challenges such as limited human resources, uneven technological infrastructure, and suboptimal inter-agency coordination. The adoption of information technology tools such as SIMKIM, APOA, and CEKAL represents an important innovation, although they have not been fully optimized. This study recommends strengthening institutional capacity, updating evidence-based regulations, and enhancing multi-actor collaboration as strategic future steps.

Illegal fishing is a form of maritime crime that threatens the sustainability of marine resources and causes significant economic losses for the country, particularly for coastal communities such as those in Natuna Regency. This activity not only harms the fisheries sector but also impacts food security, social stability, and the marine ecosystem. This study aims to examine in depth the surveillance strategy implemented by the Maritime Security Agency (Bakamla) in combating illegal fishing practices in Natuna waters. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection through in-depth interviews and analysis of Bakamla's strategic documents. The theoretical framework used refers to the concept of strategy according to Fred R. David (2016), which includes strategy formulation, implementation, and evaluation. The results of the study indicate that Bakamla has formulated a surveillance strategy by relying on 24-hour sea patrols, utilizing technologies such as the Automatic Identification Sistem (AIS), radio communications, and satellites, and establishing cross-agency collaboration including the Indonesian Navy, the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, and local government officials. The strategy was implemented through rotating patrols, outreach activities for fishermen and coastal communities, and the establishment of a public reporting channel to facilitate the dissemination of information regarding illegal activities. However, the implementation of this strategy still faces obstacles, including limited operational budgets, inadequate patrol fleets, and suboptimal response to public reports. Evaluation of the monitoring strategy showed positive impacts in the form of increased public awareness and participation, as well as a decrease in cases of fish theft in several vulnerable areas. However, the level of public involvement in reporting and independent monitoring still needs to be increased so that the monitoring strategy can be more effective and sustainable in safeguarding the sovereignty of Indonesia's marine resources.  

Immigration has become a central issue in U.S. national security policy, especially after the events of September 11, 2001. The discourse around immigration is increasing, especially in the context of national security policy, which leads to the securitization of immigration. This process constructs immigration as a security threat, which justifies a strict political and policy response. In former President Obama's perspective, U.S. immigration policy has been focused on national security since the beginning of his presidency. This emphasis is manifested through increased border surveillance and inclusive and humane immigration law enforcement through the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. Instead, Donald Trump's administration adopted a more secure approach, focusing on border security and immigration restrictions, including a controversial border wall and travel ban. This shift reflects a broader shift in U.S. domestic politics and global perceptions. Understanding these differences provides insight into how immigration policy impacts U.S. national and public security.

The phenomenon of the Facebook group "Fantasi Sedarah" which was revealed in May 2025 has shaken Indonesian society and sparked deep concern, this case involving thousands of members revealed a network of sexual predators and pedophiles who use digital space as a place to share explicit content about incest and sexual violence against children. This study aims to analyze the responsiveness of public service officials in handling the case. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with a case study method to analyze the complexity of the problem. The results of the study show that the response of various public service agencies such as the Police, Komdigi, KPAI, and the Ministry of PPPA demonstrate the state's commitment to implementing the welfare state principle in the context of digital security. However, handling is still hampered by various structural and operational obstacles. Limited human resources who have expertise in the field of cybercrime, technical capacity that is not yet optimal in dealing with rapid technological developments, and the complexity of digital regulations that still require harmonization between regulations are the main challenges in law enforcement. The research findings emphasize the urgency of strengthening structural coordination between institutions through the establishment of more solid cooperation protocols, increasing community digital literacy, and developing innovative surveillance technology that can proactively identify and counter dangerous content. Strategic recommendations include implementing periodic evaluations of the digital legal system to ensure responsiveness to technological developments, empowerment, and strengthening institutional capacity in dealing with cybercrime.

This study aims to examine one of the efforts in creating order and safety on the highway by implementing the Electronic Traffic Law Enforcement (ETLE) system as an alternative to electronic traffic violation enforcement, without direct interaction between officers and violators and to find out how the ETLE system is implemented in Serang City and to what extent its effectiveness in reducing the number of traffic violations. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of ETLE in Serang City has been running quite well, supported by surveillance camera technology and an integrated reporting system. However, there are still obstacles such as the lack of public understanding of this system and the limited coverage of the ETLE monitoring area. The implementation of ETLE is a progressive step in traffic law enforcement, but it needs to be accompanied by more massive socialization and development of supporting infrastructure so that the results achieved are more optimal.

Pneumonia is an acute respiratory infection that remains a major public health issue in Indonesia, particularly among infants and children. West Java is among the provinces with a high number of cases, and in 2024, Tasikmalaya City reported 2,178 cases, with Cilembang Public Health Center (Puskesmas Cilembang) recording the highest number. This study aims to evaluate the P2 ISPA (pneumonia) surveillance system at UPTD Puskesmas Cilembang. A descriptive-evaluative method was used, involving interviews, document reviews, and observations with surveillance and P2 ISPA program officers at the Tasikmalaya City Health Office and Puskesmas Cilembang. The findings indicate that the pneumonia surveillance implementation at Puskesmas Cilembang is fairly adequate, although improvements are needed to better align with current guidelines and government regulations.

Tuberculosis is one of the dangerous infectious diseases and is still a public health problem in Indonesia. Nisam District is one of the sub-districts in North Aceh with the highest TB cases in 2024, This study aims to analyze factors related to the incidence of tuberculosis (TB) in Nisam District, North Aceh Regency. The research design used was cross-sectional. The population in this study is all people living in Nisam District, and the sampling in this study used purposive sampling as many as 30 respondents. The results of the study found a relationship between sex (p: 0.002, OR: 55.00, CI: 4.13-732.71), knowledge (p: 0.005, OR: 35.00, CI: 2.98-411.47), behavior (p: 0.023, OR: 15.00, CI: 1.45-155.31), occupancy density (p: 0.002, OR: 115.00, CI: 6.11-2165.95) and floor type (p: 0.013, OR: 14.00, CI: 1.74-112.55) against the incidence of TB. So it is suggested to the Health Office through Promkes that it is expected to increase education on TB prevention based on gender, knowledge, and environmental conditions, while Puskesmas, especially surveillance personnel and TB programs, need to optimize active screening, patient coaching, and cadre empowerment, and the community is encouraged to create healthy housing and increase awareness of TB.  

This study examines consumer protection efforts against the distribution of hazardous illegal traditional herbal medicines in Serang City, Banten. The widespread circulation of such products—particularly those containing Chemical Drugs (Bahan Kimia Obat/BKO) and lacking distribution permits—poses a significant threat to public health. Between 2020 and 2025, the Inspection Division of the Food and Drug Monitoring Agency (BBPOM) in Serang secured and destroyed approximately 706 items, totaling 6,841 units, with an estimated economic value of IDR 91,158,350. The research focuses on two main issues: the mechanisms for protecting consumers from dangerous illegal traditional herbal medicines in Serang City, and the role of BBPOM in supervising their circulation. Employing an empirical juridical method with a qualitative-descriptive approach, the study collected data through literature reviews, documentation, and interviews with BBPOM Serang officials. The findings indicate that consumer protection is carried out through both preventive and repressive measures. Preventive efforts involve pre-market and post-market supervision to ensure that products meet safety and regulatory standards before and after they enter the market. Repressive actions include law enforcement against violations, confiscation and destruction of illegal products, and the imposition of administrative and criminal sanctions on offenders. BBPOM Serang plays a pivotal role in monitoring illegal herbal medicines by conducting regular inspections, surveillance, and investigations of production and distribution facilities, as well as educating the public about the dangers of unsafe products. Nevertheless, supervision efforts are hindered by challenges such as low public awareness regarding product safety and economic pressures that drive some producers and sellers to ignore legal requirements. Strengthening collaboration between regulatory agencies, law enforcement, and community stakeholders is essential to improving consumer protection and ensuring the circulation of safe traditional herbal products in the region.

Current study identified Acinetobacter baumannii isolates from burn wound samples using biochemical andmolecular techniques focusing on the rpoB gene. All isolates showed variable virulence factors, includingbiofilm formation (100%), gelatinase activity (90%), and mannose-resistant hemagglutination (72%). Antibioticsusceptibility testing revealed high resistance rates to Rifampin (96%), Tetracycline (92%), and third-generation cephalosporins such as Cefotaxime (73%) and Ceftriaxone (81%). Lower resistance rates wereobserved for Levofloxacin (31%) and Gatifloxacin (27%), suggesting potential effectiveness.PCR analysis confirmed the presence of AdeE and AdeY efflux pump genes in several isolates. However,statistical analysis, including Chi-square/Fisher’s tests and t-tests, demonstrated no significant correlationbetween the presence of these genes and antibiotic resistance patterns (p > 0.05). This indicates that whileefflux pump genes are present, their presence alone does not predict antibiotic resistance in the tested isolates.The findings highlight the complex mechanisms of resistance in A. baumannii and the need for continuedsurveillance and molecular diagnostics to guide effective infection control.

Slope failure can occur even though slope design and reinforcement have been carried out. However, before it completely collapses, there are often signs from the slope. These signs should be carefully observed through slope monitoring or surveillance activities to provide advance warnings regarding the development of slope instability, allowing mitigation measures to be implemented to reduce or avoid the impacts of instability, as well as to predict the timing of landslides using Inverse Velocity. This study was conducted at the PIT of PT Fajar Sakti Prima in East Kalimantan Province. Observations were carried out over 39 days to obtain deformation behavior, velocity values for mitigation actions, and inverse velocity values to predict the timing of landslides. In this observation, the deformation behavior values at PM 01, PM 02, and PM 03 were initially linear, then exhibited progressive behavior on November 7-8, 2024. The predicted landslide timing from this observation was November 20-21, 2024. Based on velocity values correlated with the TARP, critical categories were obtained at 7.40 - 9.86 cm/day and very critical at >26.17 cm/day

Notaries have a crucial role in making the deed of establishment of a limited liability company which is the basis for the existence of a legal entity. However, in practice, deeds containing false data are often found, causing legal problems related to the liability of the parties involved. This research aims to analyse the application of the piercing the corporate veil doctrine to limited liability companies established with false data as well as the notary's responsibility in such cases. The research method used is normative legal research with statutory and conceptual approaches. The results show that the doctrine of piercing the corporate veil can be applied when there is evidence of abuse of the legal entity, so that the responsibility shifts to the owner or management. In addition, notaries who are negligent or intentionally allow forgery can be held civil, administrative, and criminal liabilities. Therefore, notaries must apply the precautionary principle in making deeds to avoid legal consequences.

Background: Preterm labor (PTL) remains a major global health concern, contributing significantly to neonatal morbidity and mortality. Asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB), has been implicated as a predisposing factor to PTL. This research investigates association between ASB and PTL, emphasizing inflammatory mediators such as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein along with tumor necrosis factor- α. Methods: This observational case-control study was conducted at Tikrit Teaching Hospital, Iraq, involving 100 pregnant women (50 PTL cases and 50 full-term controls). Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data were collected. Urine cultures identified bacterial isolates. In addition, levels of TNF-α and hs-CRP in serum were measured using ELISA. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS.  Results: ASB was significantly associated with PTL, with 30% from PTL cases having a positive urine culture compared to 8% in controls (p = 0.009). Escherichia coli was the predominant pathogen (53%). TNF-α and hs-CRP levels were significantly elevated in PTL cases (p < 0.001), suggesting an inflammatory pathway in PTL pathophysiology. Conclusions: ASB is a significant risk factor for PTL, likely mediated by systemic inflammation. Routine ASB screening and targeted antimicrobial therapy may reduce PTL risk. Further study is required to explore the mechanistic connections amongst microbial infection and inflammatory responses in PTL. 

This study aims to describe and analyze: the role of supervision and obstacles faced and the efforts made by the Surabaya Special Class I Immigration Office in its role to supervise the existence of foreigners.  The research method to be used is qualitative descriptive.  Data Collection Techniques include: Interviews, Observations, Documentation. The research informant is the Head of the Suarabaya Special Class I Immigration Office. The data analysis technique using interactive model analysis was developed by Miles et al., (2014), namely data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study show that the Surabaya Special Class I Immigration Office has three roles in supervising foreigners, namely as an immigration facilitator on duty, including providing residence permit and immigration status services, determining immigration status for foreigners in Indonesia, conducting research on the correctness of a person's citizenship evidence.  As an Administrator in the supervision of foreigners, it is carried out through administrative supervision when a foreign citizen submits an application to the Immigration Office. As an Executor in the supervision of foreigners, it is carried out by 1) searching for and obtaining information about the existence of Indonesian citizens who are outside Indonesian Territory; 2) Conduct an interview when applying for a Travel Document of the Republic of Indonesia; or 3) Coordinate with the local government through the Chief Representative of the Republic of Indonesia to monitor the existence of Indonesian citizens outside the Indonesian Territory. The obstacles faced by the Surabaya Special Class I Immigration Office include the range of work which includes Surabaya, Mojokerto, and Sidoarjo. There are limitations of officers. Lack of understanding of immigration law by foreigners. Lack of information obtained from the public regarding the existence of foreigners. Lack of openness on the part of the company where the foreigner works. The efforts made by the Surabaya Special Class I Immigration Office in supervising foreigners are to conduct direct field surveillance to find out the whereabouts of foreigners. Attend KOMINDA (Komunitas Intelejen Daerah: Regional Intelligence Community) activities organized by the Regional Government.  Conducting socialization programs to foreigners and the community. Conducting administrative supervision.

Human action recognition involves recognizing and classifying actions performed by humans. It has many applications, including sports, healthcare, and surveillance. Challenges such as a limited number of classes of activities and variations within inter and intra-class groups lead to high misclassification rates in some of the intelligent systems developed. Existing studies focused mainly on using public datasets with little focus on real-life action datasets, with limited research on HAR for military obstacle-crossing activities.  This paper focuses on recognizing human actions in an obstacle-crossing competition video sequence where multiple participants are performing different obstacle-crossing activities. This study proposes a feature descriptor approach that combines a Histogram of Oriented Gradient and Region Descriptors (HOGReG) for human action recognition in a military obstacle crossing competition. The dataset was captured during military trainees’ obstacle-crossing exercises at a military training institution to achieve this objective. Images were segmented into background and foreground using a Grabcut-based segmentation algorithm, and thereafter, features were extracted and used for classification. The features were extracted using a Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG) and region descriptors from segmented images. The extracted features are presented to a neural network classifier for classification and evaluation. The experimental results recorded 63.8%, 82.6%, and 86.4% recognition accuracies using the region descriptors HOG and HOGReG, respectively. The region descriptor gave a training time of 5.6048 seconds, while HOG and HOGReG reported 32.233 and 31.975 seconds, respectively. The outcome shows how effectively the suggested model performed.

The proliferation of network information algorithms (NIAs) in contemporary society has sparked significant ethical concerns regarding their societal impact. This study investigates the influence of NIAs on social interactions, decision-making processes, and the perpetuation of structural biases through a multidisciplinary perspective (Ananny, 2023). The findings reveal that while NIAs enhance operational efficiency across various domains, they also introduce ethical challenges, including privacy infringements, systemic inequities, and algorithmic opacity, which threaten social justice. Employing Ananny’s (2023) conceptual framework—which categorizes NIAs into three dimensions: encounters, observation, and probability/temporality—this research deconstructs the operational mechanisms of these algorithms. The analysis demonstrates that NIAs not only replicate historical biases but also engender new forms of discrimination through ostensibly neutral predictive processes. For example, algorithm-driven recruitment systems may perpetuate gender disparities if their training data reflects prior discriminatory practices (Crawford, 2021). This study underscores the inextricable link between technological ethics and societal context, arguing that an overreliance on algorithmic systems risks undermining human autonomy (Zuboff, 2019). The originality of this research lies in its integration of computational ethics theory with empirical case studies, such as the deployment of NIAs in mass surveillance, where privacy is often compromised in pursuit of perceived security. To ensure academic rigor, the arguments are developed through a critical comparison with prior research (e.g., Mittelstadt et al., 2016), while avoiding redundancy in phrasing or structure. Scholars such as Floridi (2019) emphasize the necessity of algorithmic transparency in regulatory frameworks. However, critics like Noble (2018) argue that technical solutions alone are inadequate; structural reforms in data governance and corporate accountability are essential to mitigate the misuse of NIAs. In response, this study proposes an ethical framework that not only addresses technical risk mitigation but also incorporates civic participation in algorithmic decision-making processes. The ethical implications of NIAs necessitate a holistic approach that integrates principles of data justice, independent algorithmic auditing, and public digital literacy. Future research should explore inclusive models of algorithmic governance, particularly in developing nations where regulatory frameworks often lag behind technological advancements. This study concludes with a reflective inquiry: How can algorithmic accountability be ensured if developers lack transparency regarding data sources and programming logic? By addressing these questions, this research contributes to the ongoing discourse on the ethical governance of NIAs and their societal implications.

The rapid advancement of digital technology has led to widespread mass surveillance, raising concerns about the protection of individual privacy. International human rights law plays a crucial role in balancing national security interests with the right to digital privacy. This study examines the impact of international human rights frameworks, such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), in safeguarding digital privacy amid increasing government surveillance. Using a qualitative approach, the research analyzes key legal principles, court rulings, and policy responses from different jurisdictions. The findings indicate that while international legal instruments provide a foundation for digital privacy protection, enforcement remains inconsistent due to varying national implementations and technological challenges. The study underscores the need for stronger legal mechanisms and international cooperation to ensure the effective protection of digital privacy rights in the digital age.
