Human trafficking is a complex crime against humanity that involves the exploitation of vulnerable individuals, including Indonesian citizens who have become victims of online scams in Cambodia. This study aims to analyze the implementation of legal protection for victims of human trafficking in Cambodia and to identify the challenges and obstacles faced in efforts to combat this crime. The research method used is a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis, gathering data from various secondary sources, including legislation, legal documents, and relevant academic literature. The findings indicate that although the Indonesian government has made efforts to rescue and rehabilitate victims through diplomatic roles and international cooperation, there are still significant challenges, such as differences in legal systems, limited resources, and the increasing complexity of trafficking modus operandi. Therefore, a comprehensive approach is needed, encompassing the strengthening of bilateral cooperation, enhancing the capacity of law enforcement officers, and public education to prevent human trafficking. This study emphasizes the importance of collaboration between governments, society, and the international community in protecting human rights and the dignity of individuals from exploitation.

Financing in Indonesia, especially banks, is very important, especially for business actors, this is a natural thing considering that banks have a strategic role in national development in order to realize a just and prosperous Indonesian society. Regulations regarding Sharia financing are regulated in Law No. 10 of 1945 and Article 1 number 2 of Law No. 10 of 1998 concerning amendments to Law No. 7 of 1992 concerning Sharia Banking (hereinafter referred to as the banking law) defines a bank as a business entity that collects funds from the community in the form of deposits and distributes them back to the community in the form of credit and/or in the form of claims in order to improve the standard of living of the people, but there is an inconsistency in the regulation in terms of guarantees. This legal provision continues until the implementation of the Sharia Banking Law, because there are no legal regulations governing sharia guarantees, therefore in terms of sharia banking practices, the guarantee procedures used by conventional banking are still applied, namely fiduciary guarantees and mortgage rights.

This thesis examines the legal consequences faced by notaries who refuse to draft credit agreement deeds containing elements of usury, with a focus on Tuban City. The study addresses two main issues: whether a notary can lawfully refuse such a deed, and what legal sanctions may apply if they do. Using a normative legal research approach with case, statutory, and conceptual analyses, the study finds that while the UUJN (Notary Law) does not explicitly permit refusal on religious grounds, it also does not prohibit it if the client can be served by another notary. Refusal based on Islamic principles—specifically the prohibition of usury (riba)—does not warrant sanctions under Article 85 of the UUJN, unless the refusal leads to the client's abandonment. In such cases, administrative sanctions may apply. According to the Notary Code of Ethics, acting outside legal provisions may also result in disciplinary action. The study concludes that current laws do not provide sufficient legal protection for notaries who seek to align their professional duties with religious beliefs. It recommends legal reform to ensure notaries have the right to uphold sharia principles without fear of sanctions, through amendments to the UUJN that consider religious freedom and human rights, while still ensuring client access to legal services.

Hidden defects are defects in goods that cannot be directly known by the buyer at the time of the transaction. In the Civil Code, hidden defects are regulated in Article 1491 of the Civil Code and Article 7, paragraph (2) of Law No. 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection. This study aims to analyze the seller’s liability for goods containing hidden defects using a normative approach. The findings indicate that the seller's liability for hidden defects is strict (strict liability), obligating the seller to provide compensation to the buyer who suffers a loss. A harmed consumer is entitled to claim compensation in the form of returns, replacements, or reimbursements. Legal protection is essential to create a balance of rights and obligations within the legal relationship between consumers and business actors. Enforcing seller liability also promotes compliance with quality standards and increases consumer awareness of their rights. Therefore, the existing regulations play a significant role in ensuring justice and guaranteeing consumer safety in sales transactions.

The aim of this study is to analyze the legal consequences of company bankruptcy for individuals and the legal certainty of company bankruptcy for individuals. The method used in this study is normative juridical with a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. This study uses primary, secondary and tertiary legal materials. Data collection uses document study or literature study techniques. The data that has been obtained is analyzed qualitatively using deductive and inductive methods or interpretation is carried out. The results of the study show that individual companies that have been declared bankrupt through a court decision can immediately give rise to legal consequences, namely that the debtor loses the right to carry out management and control over the assets owned and everything produced during bankruptcy, and the rights and obligations of the bankrupt debtor are transferred to the curator. to manage and control the debt as regulated in Article 19 to Article 62 of Law Number 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and Postponement of Debt Payment Obligations. The concept of bankruptcy law certainty in bankruptcy law can be demonstrated in the principle of quick case resolution and simple proof.

The irfani approach in the study of Islamic law is a method that integrates spiritual experience, intuition, and moral values in understanding and applying legal principles. This research aims to explore the relevance, implications, and challenges of the irfani approach within the context of Islamic law in Indonesia. By employing normative juridical analysis and literature study, this study finds that the irfani approach enriches the understanding of Islamic law by linking it to contemporary issues, such as social justice, environmental protection, and human rights. This perspective encourages a more holistic and ethical interpretation of legal principles, moving beyond rigid textual analysis. Furthermore, this research highlights the potential harmonization between Islamic law and customary law (adat law) in Indonesia. This integration can create a more inclusive, culturally adaptive, and community-responsive legal system, which aligns with Indonesia's pluralistic legal landscape. However, challenges remain in the widespread acceptance and implementation of the irfani approach. Resistance often arises from scholars and institutions that prefer conventional, textual, and rationalistic approaches to Islamic law, perceiving the irfani method as subjective or lacking legal rigor.Despite these challenges, strengthening education, scholarly dialogue, and interdisciplinary engagement between Islamic law scholars, legal practitioners, and policymakers can foster a greater appreciation for the ethical and spiritual dimensions of Islamic law. By incorporating mystical insights and moral considerations, the irfani approach has significant potential to contribute to the evolution of Islamic law in Indonesia, ensuring its relevance, inclusivity, and adaptability in addressing the complex challenges of modern society.

The United Nations is an international organization that has very important role in maintaining world peace and security. The United Nations Charter does not provide much explicit regulation regarding Veto rights. the use of the Veto rights is community, and in this research we will discuse the regulations regarding the Veto right and its various relevance in relation to the principle of sovereignty adopted by the United Nations. That basically the regulation of the principles and principle of equality of state sovereignty has been expressly regulated in article 2 paragraph (1) of the UN Charter. The provisions are the basis for carrying out the functions of the UN as an international organization, including the basis for carrying out the functions of its main organ. Therefore, this principle becomes a guide for decision makers in the UN security council until there is no longer any reason to justify the use of the Veto right.

Sexual Violence against children is a serious problem that requires in-depth attention in the context of legal protection of victim. In the case of Herry Wirawan, involving 13 (thirteen) victims of sexual assault in Bandung, has raised controversy over the reimbursement charged to the state. In it’s ruling, the chamber of Judges of PN Bandung sentenced Herry Wirawan to life sentence and ordered the payment of restitution to the victims. However, there are questions about the legality of the payment of restitution, especially since the perpetrators have been sentenced to life imprisonment, which is incompatible with Article 67 2023 of the Covenant. This study uses a normative approach to analyze this problem, focusing one the case of Herry Wirawan. The result showed a gap between the legal process and the victim’s need to obtain adequate compensation for the suffering they suffered. In addition, there are problems related to the minimality of the claim for restitution made by the victim and the implementation of restitution that is not always smooth. Implementation of restitution in legal practice still faces a minimum victim awareness and understanding of their rights as well as the perpetrator’s ability to pay restitution. The study highlights the need to raise victim awareness, improve law enforcement mechanism, and provide adequate support service. In addition, recommendations for improvement of relevant policy or legal practice are also identified. It is hoped that this research can contribute to understanding the complexity of the restitution process in cases of sexual violence in Indonesia and provide a basis for improving legal protection for victims.

Exploitation is an activity carried out to gain benefits by harming others arbitrarily without responsibility. Exploitation is a threat in the field of Cyber Security that not only poses risks but also jeopardizes an individual's security and privacy. According to data from the Institute of Internal Auditors, financial losses due to cybercrime exploitation worldwide reached 8 trillion US dollars in 2023. In Cyber Security, one exploitation technique involves using Remote Access methods to take over access rights and enable remote system control. Based on this issue, the author conducts research on Remote Access using three different target models based on the Windows operating system. These three targets will demonstrate how vulnerabilities in an operating system can be exploited to gain Remote Access. The method for testing Remote Access involves identifying the vulnerabilities available in the target system. The study employs three techniques: exploiting the ms17-010 vulnerability, utilizing the SmbGhost vulnerability, and using a backdoor. The results show that all three approaches successfully penetrated the target system and made modifications.

This study aims to identify the human rights (HR) violations experienced by Palestinian civilians in the context of international law and to evaluate the various conflict resolution efforts that have been undertaken. Based on an analysis of various forms of violations, such as killings, administrative detention without charges, movement restrictions, evictions, and disruptions to education and healthcare services, this research finds that HR violations against Palestinian civilians are widespread and systematic. The study also assesses the effectiveness of the resolution efforts made by the international community, such as the Oslo Accords and various UN resolutions. Although there have been some advancements, these efforts are often hindered by distrust, ongoing violence, and failures to address core issues. To achieve a fair and lasting resolution, this research recommends full respect for human rights, cessation of actions that violate international law, and a genuine commitment from all parties to meaningful negotiations. The type of research used is a library research method with descriptive analysis by collecting data, organizing or classifying it, compiling, and interpreting it. This method is used because it can clearly describe the object of the study.

The provision of friendly facilities for people with disabilities is one form of government concern in creating social inclusion and equal access for all levels of society. In this context, the National Land Agency (BPN) plays an important role in ensuring that public facilities provided can be accessed by all individuals, including people with disabilities. This study aims to analyze how BPN provides disability-friendly facilities at the regional office located on Jalan STM, Sitirejo, Medan Amplas District, Medan City, North Sumatra. This study uses a qualitative approach with an in-depth case study method, where data is obtained through interviews, direct observation, and documentation studies related to the provision of facilities for people with disabilities at the BPN. The results of the study indicate that despite efforts by the BPN to provide facilities that are friendly to people with disabilities, there are still a number of obstacles that need to be fixed, such as the lack of supporting facilities such as disabled lanes, and information on service procedures that are not fully disability-friendly. From this study, it is recommended that the BPN can improve infrastructure and services for people with disabilities by paying attention to applicable standards, and conduct wider socialization related to accessibility rights for people with disabilities, in order to realize more inclusive public services.

Normative legal research examines legal behavioral products, such as laws, through normative case studies.

The in dubio pro reo principle is a fundamental principle in criminal law that states that if there is doubt in the proof of a case, then the decision must be taken in favor of the defendant. The application of this principle is particularly crucial in rape and murder cases, where the legal consequences faced by the accused are severe. However, the use of this principle often causes debate because it can have an impact on the sense of justice for victims and society. This research uses a normative qualitative method with a normative juridical approach to analyze laws and regulations, legal doctrines, and court decisions related to the application of the in dubio pro reo principle. Data was collected through literature study by analyzing relevant court decisions. The results showed that the application of this principle is based on the negatief wettelijk evidentiary system, which requires a minimum of two valid pieces of evidence and the judge's conviction to impose a sentence. However, in practice, the difficulty of proof in rape and murder cases can lead to the defendant being acquitted despite indications of guilt. Therefore, the balance between the protection of the defendant's rights and justice for the victim must be considered in the application of this principle.

Sexual violence is an act that is degrading, humiliating, harassing, and/or attacking a person’s body or reproductive function, typically caused by an imbalance of power relations or gender discrimination, which results in psychological and physical suffering. Sexual violence against children is a social problem that requires special attention because this crime involves children in its commission. The Institute for Criminal Justice Reform (ICJR) also emphasizes that intercourse with a child constitutes a criminal offense, even if it is framed as consensual, in order to protect the child’s rights and future. Based on this issue, the author aims to examine efforts to combat sexual violence against children under the guise of sexual consent to find the most effective strategies to reduce this increasingly widespread crime. The research method used is a normative and empirical juridical approach. The data used includes both primary and secondary data. Data collection procedures involve literature study and field research. The data analysis was conducted using qualitative analysis. The results of the study show that efforts to combat sexual crimes include both penal and non-penal measures. Penal efforts involve the government enacting more specific regulations on sexual crimes involving adults and children under the pretense of sexual consent, as well as taking repressive measures as a last resort. Non-penal efforts conducted by relevant institutions include public outreach and education that provides information about such criminal behaviors. The suggestions in this study are: (1) To prevent sexual crimes committed under the guise of sexual consent, it is necessary to involve the community and a supportive environment that is aware of unlawful acts occurring around them, and to collectively protect family and community members from engaging in harmful behavior. (2) The government is expected to establish more specific policies regarding sexual crimes involving adults and children under the pretext of sexual consent.

This research uses George Edward's implementation theory which includes 4 aspects, namely resources, communication, bureaucratic structure, and disposition. The results showed that the implementation of the child-friendly city program in Serua Village has several success factors that have been carried out well, namely disposition and bureaucratic structure. Disposition is carried out with synergized cooperation between stakeholders, while the bureaucratic structure is well displayed in the form of coordination in the implementation of the child-friendly city. Meanwhile, other aspects that should be improved are communication and resources. Communication in this case is in the form of lack of public awareness and understanding of the program, while resources are related to budget limitations.

The development of the Toba Caldera Geopark as a national priority tourism destination is part of the government’s efforts to drive regional economic growth, improve community welfare, and strengthen Indonesia’s position in sustainable tourism. However, its implementation presents significant challenges in balancing economic development, environmental sustainability, and social justice, particularly for indigenous communities around the area. This study aims to analyze the impact of the Toba Caldera Geopark development policy on the environment and local indigenous communities. A multidisciplinary approach was employed, combining qualitative methods through in-depth interviews and participatory observations, along with quantitative data from surveys and official secondary sources. The results indicate potential conflicts between tourism infrastructure development and nature conservation, including environmental degradation and the erosion of local cultural values. Additionally, there is a risk of marginalization of indigenous communities in terms of access to natural resources and their involvement in decision-making processes. Therefore, this study recommends the need for more inclusive and sustainable policies that place indigenous communities at the center of geopark management. Active participation of local communities, recognition of customary land rights, and development approaches based on local wisdom are essential to achieving equitable, sustainable, and environmentally responsible development of the Toba Caldera Geopark.

This study explores the role of the Catholic Church in fostering dialogue with migrants and refugees in the Diocese of Maumere, Indonesia, while also examining its pastoral and theological responses to the complex challenges posed by modern migration. As migration becomes a pressing global issue, the Church is called to be a beacon of compassion, justice, and inclusion for those displaced from their homelands. Employing a qualitative research method, this study utilizes both fieldwork and literature review, with data gathered through in-depth interviews with clergy and community members, as well as analysis of ecclesiastical documents and pastoral guidelines.The findings reveal that the Church implements three primary forms of dialogue: the dialogue of presence, which emphasizes being physically and emotionally present with migrants; the dialogue of life, which promotes shared daily experiences and mutual respect; and the dialogue of liberation, which focuses on advocating for the rights and dignity of refugees. Despite these efforts, the Church faces several challenges, including limited financial and human resources, bureaucratic inefficiencies, and cultural resistance from segments of the local population.To address these obstacles, the study recommends that the Church strengthen collaboration with government agencies and civil society organizations, enhance education and empowerment initiatives for refugees, and promote community awareness on the values of solidarity and acceptance. By adopting a comprehensive and sustainable approach, the Church can reinforce its mission to serve the marginalized and uphold the inherent dignity of every human being, especially those most vulnerable due to forced migration and displacement.

Vastenburg Fort is a cultural heritage area that has been designated by the Department of Culture and Tourism in 2010. In line with this designation, the City Government changed the spatial plan of Surakarta City by revising the Regional Regulation related to the regional spatial plan.
