The Indonesian National Army as a member of the Indonesian National Guard is at the forefront of Indonesia in the eyes of the public as an example and role model in discipline, ethics, and compliance with the law. However, in the reality of daily life, there are still TNI soldiers who commit traffic violations, such as driving a vehicle without having a Driver's License (SIM). This research includes empirical juridical research, or called field research, which examines the applicable legal provisions and compares them with the reality that occurs in society. The research method used was in the form of interviews with five relevant sources, then the data was analyzed descriptive-qualitatively to provide a comprehensive understanding. The results of the study showed that (1) law enforcement against TNI soldiers who committed traffic violations without a driver's license was checked according to the procedure of the rapid inspection event; no long inspection minutes are required, it is enough to use the minutes of traffic violations and road transportation or tickets from the military police; (2) Sanctions applied for minor traffic violations in the form of administrative disciplinary sanctions, including criminal prosecution of fines paid to military authorities and deposited into the state treasury. This reflects the balance between legal compliance and internal discipline of the TNI, as well as efforts to develop soldiers so that they remain an example for the community.

Local governments manage substantial public resources under conditions of decentralization, fiscal complexity, and heightened accountability demands, making them particularly vulnerable to financial mismanagement and fraud. In this context, risk-based internal oversight has increasingly been promoted as a governance-oriented alternative to traditional compliance-based supervision. This literature review article examines how risk-based internal oversight is conceptualized, operationalized, and linked to fraud prevention and control in the management of local government finance. The study addresses a central problem in the existing literature: the fragmentation of analytical perspectives across risk-based internal auditing, fraud risk management, internal control systems, public financial management, and public accountability, which has limited a comprehensive understanding of how internal oversight contributes to safeguarding public funds. The primary objective of this article is to synthesize and integrate these strands of literature to clarify the role of risk-based internal oversight as a systemic governance mechanism for fraud prevention and control at the subnational level. Methodologically, the study employs an integrative literature review approach, drawing on peer-reviewed journal articles and authoritative institutional publications indexed in major academic databases over the past decade. A structured search, screening, and thematic synthesis process was applied to identify patterns, convergences, and divergences across conceptual, empirical, and policy-oriented studies. The findings indicate a clear shift from compliance-oriented inspection toward risk-based internal oversight that prioritizes high-risk financial processes—particularly procurement, grants, and asset management—where fraud risks are most pronounced. The synthesis further shows that effective fraud prevention depends on the alignment of risk-based oversight with fraud risk management practices, robust internal control systems (including SPIP).

This study aims to analyse the role of the East Java Provincial Transportation Agency in improving the quality of inter-city bus transportation services within the province (AKDP) based on Soekanto's role theory (in Solahudin et al, 2022), which is reviewed using three indicators: regulatory role, service role, and supervisory role. The research employed a qualitative research method with techniques of interviews, observation, and documentation of the Transportation Agency, Organda, PO owners, drivers and conductors, as well as passengers at Bungurasih Terminal. The results of the study show that in terms of regulation, the Transportation Agency has established tariff policies and Minimum Service Standards (SPM), but these have not functioned optimally as operational guidelines, as reflected in the low transparency of tariff information and the varying quality of the fleet. In terms of service, although safety inspection procedures and service facilities are available, the quality of safety, comfort, terminal facilities, as well as access to information and complaint mechanisms have not been consistently felt by users. In terms of supervision, tariff compliance control and SPM implementation remain weak and tend to be tolerant of irregularities. The main findings indicate a serious gap between normative standards and field practices, resulting in standards losing their coercive power as quality guarantors. Therefore, this study recommends strengthening the enforcement of standards in a firm and consistent manner, increasing the transparency of service and tariff information, and conducting supervision that is oriented towards tangible results for the community.

This research examines law enforcement against immigration violations and the factors influencing the effectiveness of border crossing inspection at the Immigration Checkpoint (TPI) of Tanjung Perak, Surabaya. Immigration inspection plays a vital role in safeguarding national sovereignty and monitoring cross-border human movement. Using a normative juridical approach with statutory and conceptual approaches, the findings demonstrate that enforcement procedures include document verification, identification of violations, administrative actions, and deportation in accordance with Law Number 6 of 2011 concerning Immigration. Common violations found include misuse of stay permits, travel document forgery, unauthorized border crossers, and illegal activities by foreign nationals beyond visa provisions. However, implementation still faces challenges such as limited human resources, inadequate infrastructure, and weak inter-agency coordination. Several factors affect the effectiveness of inspections, including personnel quality, technological support, legal frameworks, infrastructure capacity, traveler volume, inter-agency cooperation, political and international relations factors, socio-cultural dynamics, financial and logistical support, as well as internal supervision and accountability systems. The research concludes that institutional capacity building, policy integration, regulatory harmonization, and strengthened internal supervision are essential to ensure optimal immigration control at TPI Tanjung Perak in facing global challenges.

The background of this research is based on Cervical cancer, a disease that poses a serious threat to women's health in Indonesia. Early detection through prevention programs such as IVA (Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid) is a crucial step in reducing the number of cervical cancer cases. In this effort, an effective communication strategy from the Pasar Minggu District Health Center plays a very important role. This study focuses on the prevention program and communication strategies implemented at the Pasar Minggu District Health Center. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive study method. Data collection techniques were carried out through in-depth interviews with Health Center officers, observations of socialization activities, and documentation. The results show that the communication strategies implemented by the Pasar Minggu District Health Center include informative, educational, and persuasive communication strategies. The Health Center utilizes various communication channels such as social media and direct counseling. Obstacles faced include low levels of public health literacy, stigma against IVA examinations, and limited human resources.

The Mataram High Court Decision Number 183/PDT/2023/PT MTR, which upheld the Selong District Court Decision Number 59/PDT/2023/PN SEL, stated that the Appellants' (formerly the Plaintiffs) lawsuit was inadmissible because there were parties who had not been involved in the case (lack of parties). The legal fact regarding this lack of parties had actually emerged since the on-site examination stage conducted by the Panel of Judges at the first instance. In fact, this had also been expressly conveyed by the Appellees (formerly the Defendants) through an exception. However, the Panel of Judges rejected the exception and ultimately contradictorily declared the lawsuit inadmissible. This study emphasizes the urgency of considering the results of the on-site examination in relation to the lack of parties and its implications for the ownership status of the disputed object after the decision. The research method used is a normative juridical approach, with analysis referring to statutory provisions, legal doctrine, and civil law principles. Specifically, this study highlights the law of evidence and the position of on-site examination in the judicial process. The research results show that on-site inspections actually play a crucial role in assessing evidence and witness statements related to the existence of parties who should be called into the lawsuit. However, this urgency is lost because the panel of judges' considerations are inconsistent with the provisions regarding the strength of evidence as stipulated in Article 284 of the RBg. Furthermore, the exception regarding the lack of parties whose substance is similar to the results of the on-site inspection is actually set aside. A further implication of this decision is that the ownership status of the disputed object does not change. After the decision is rendered, the object remains in the possession of the Respondents, without legal clarity regarding who the party legally has authority over it.

This research analyzes the legal provisions regarding the obligation to pay overtime wages and legal options for workers if the company fails to provide overtime compensation. Overtime wages are the right of workers regulated in Law No. 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower which has been amended by Law No. 6 of 2023 and Government Regulation No. 35 of 2021. This study uses a case analysis of PT X in Semarang, which was accused of not paying overtime wages in full to its employees. The findings show that despite clear legal regulations, implementation faces various obstacles, such as inadequate supervision and lack of legal awareness. Employees whose rights are not met can pursue out-of-court (e.g. bipartite negotiation, mediation, conciliation, arbitration) and court channels through the labor court. Non-compliance with regulations on overtime pay not only impacts the economic situation of employees, but also causes imbalances in labor relations. This research recommends strengthening the labor inspection system, increasing transparency in the handling of working hours, increasing legal awareness among employees, and developing a more accurate time recording system to ensure the fulfillment of employee rights according to the applicable regulations.

This research aims to examine the gap in legal protection for domestic workers in Indonesia through an analysis of Law No. 13 of 2003 on Manpower and ILO Convention No. 189 on Decent Work for Domestic Workers. Until now, domestic workers have not been explicitly recognized in national regulations, so their basic rights such as living wages, social security, and humane working hours are often neglected. This condition is exacerbated by the absence of written work contracts, the dominance of informal recruitment, and the view of the community that does not consider domestic workers as formal workers. This article concludes that the ratification of ILO Convention 189 and the passing of the Domestic Workers Protection Bill are strategic steps to strengthen legal protection for domestic workers in Indonesia, which also needs to be supported by labor inspection and comprehensive legal education.

This research focuses on the involvement of community organizations (CSOs) in business activities in Makassar City, emphasizing the dynamics of power relations that develop outside the formal framework of the state. In daily practice, CSOs frequently conduct inspections, symbolic enforcement, and even intimidation against business actors despite lacking official government mandates, resulting in a shift in oversight functions to the informal realm. The aim of this research is to understand how CSOs can gain social legitimacy and exercise pseudo-authoritative authority in the public sphere. To address this, the research methods used include in-depth interviews with 18 informants and analysis of 21 relevant documents. The analysis shows that CSOs' authority is formed through informal socio-political networks that rely on three main factors: community support, closeness to security forces, and local media coverage that strengthens their symbolic legitimacy. This then results in pseudo-authority, a form of de facto authority that is accepted in certain social contexts even though it is not legally recognized. Further findings indicate resistance from business actors and community leaders who question the legality and economic impact of mass organization interventions, which are considered to have the potential to hamper the business climate and create uncertainty. However, the weak response from local governments actually emphasizes the gap in formal oversight mechanisms, opening up space for mass organizations to fill this role. This condition indicates that the authorizing environment is not institutional as it should be, but rather social, contested, and dependent on the dynamics of power relations at the local level. Thus, this study provides a picture of how the pseudo-authority practices of mass organizations are formed, accepted, and questioned in the context of urban social and economic governance.

This research examines North Korea's violation of the principle of good faith under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and its legal consequences. The main issue addressed in this study is North Korea’s breach of the good faith principle within the framework of the NPT, which raises legal implications regarding its status and obligations as a party to the treaty. Although North Korea was formally bound by the NPT, it secretly developed a nuclear weapons program, demonstrating non-compliance with the fundamental principle of international treaty implementation. This issue was further exacerbated by its refusal to allow inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and its unilateral withdrawal from the NPT, which has sparked debate over the legitimacy and legality of such action.Using a normative juridical approach, this study analyzes North Korea’s clandestine development of nuclear weapons while still a member of the NPT, as well as the validity of its withdrawal from the treaty. The findings show that North Korea violated the principle of good faith through its secret nuclear program, refusal of IAEA inspections, and withdrawal that did not meet the requirements of Article X of the NPT. The withdrawal may be deemed invalid as it was conducted in bad faith and without fulfilling the treaty's formal provisions. The legal consequences include the continued applicability of obligations under the NPT and state responsibility for breaches of international law. Ideal forms of accountability include the cessation of the nuclear program, payment of reparations, guarantees of non-repetition, and renewed compliance with NPT provisions through verifiable denuclearization.

The purpose of this research is to examine and analyze the validity of scientific crime investigation as evidence in the process of proving murder cases and what are the advantages and disadvantages of using the scientific crime investigation method in crime scene processing carried out by forensic laboratories. Then the method used in this research is the normative legal research method. The results of the study show that the scientific crime investigation method, which is expressed in concrete form through forensic laboratory examinations and information from police forensic experts, is the central point. In connecting the relationship between the perpetrator, victim and evidence with the crime scene, the construction of evidence for a criminal act becomes stronger and can give confidence to the judge in deciding a case fairly and in accordance with the actual facts. In the case of the crime of murder with poison, the statements of the witnesses and the statements of the two defendants were linked and interconnected with each other after the scientific crime investigation method was applied; The advantages and disadvantages of using scientific crime investigation methods in crime scene processing carried out by forensic laboratories include. The advantages and disadvantages of using scientific crime investigation methods in crime scene processing carried out by forensic laboratories include: (1). The advantage of implementing scientific crime investigation is that uncovering cases using old methods full of violence, intervention, etc. has been abandoned. (2) Fast, precise and accurate inspection supported by special tools that have been internationally standardized, (3) Minimizing errors made before SCI implementation (manual patterns replaced with digital patterns). Meanwhile, the weaknesses are: Internal side of the SatKer (Work Unit): the number of human resources who supervise and understand the use of Special Tools (Alsus) is limited, the special equipment, both primary and secondary, is expensive. If we look at the human resources that this country has, it should be enough to assist the Forensic Laboratory team in supervision and are people who understand the special tools that support the performance of the Forensic Laboratory. Apart from that, the government should be more respectful of the procurement of these special tools, even though not everyone has to always use these special tools. However, these tools are very useful for the smooth running of investigations and/or investigations. Because the resulting examination data is much more detailed and accurate.

This research aims to find out the role of Bawaslu in creating honest and fair elections in Gorontalo Province and how Bawaslu handles violations of ASN neutrality.

This research is based on the importance of shipping safety to protect passengers, crew, and the maritime environment from high risk of accidents, especially on high-speed ships that have special operational characteristics. Legal arrangements related to HSC seaworthiness have been regulated in various national regulations such as Law Number 17 of 2008 concerning Shipping, Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number PM 12 of 2022, as well as international conventions such as SOLAS, MARPOL, and STCW. However, its application in the field still faces various obstacles. This study aims to analyze the law regarding the seaworthiness of high-speed passenger ships (HSC) and challenges in the supervision of shipping safety in the waters of the Riau Islands, with a focus on the study at Sekupang Domestic Port, Batam City. This study uses normative juridical methods to analyze applicable laws and regulations and empirical sociological methods to explore field information through interviews and observations of related parties, such as port authorities, ship operators, and crew members at Sekupang Domestic Port. The results of the study show that the implementation of HSC seaworthiness in the waters of the Riau Islands is not optimal. The main obstacles include a lack of trained human resources, inadequate inspection facilities, weak law enforcement, ineffective inter-agency coordination, and low awareness and education on the importance of maritime safety. Based on these findings, it is recommended that the Batam Special KSOP improve the competence of inspectors and supervisors through a continuous training program. The government is expected to allocate a budget for investment in modern inspection facilities and equipment. In addition, the maritime community, especially operators and crew members, need to increase their awareness and understanding of shipping safety through active participation in education and training programs. With these efforts, it is hoped that the implementation of HSC seaworthiness can be more optimal, thereby improving shipping safety in the waters of the Riau Islands.

This research aims to determine the regulations related to the implementation of digital gold investment in Indonesia and to determine the form of legal protection that BAPPEBTI can provide through statutory regulations for digital gold customers. This research is normative legal research that is descriptive in nature. The research approach used is a statutory and conceptual approach. The types and sources of legal materials used consist of primary legal materials and secondary legal materials. The legal material collection technique used is literature study a. The legal material analysis technique used is deductive using the syllogism method. Based on the research results, it was found that the implementation of digital gold investment trading in Indonesia is generally regulated in the Commodity Futures Trading Law, explained in more detail in Minister of Trade Regulation No. 119 of 2018, and the technical provisions are regulated in BAPPEBTI Regulations. The legal protection that BAPPEBTI can provide to digital gold customers includes carrying out supervision and even inspection of companies carrying out digital gold trading activities, then if violations are found by the company concerned, BAPPEBTI can impose administrative or criminal sanctions. However, there is a contradiction in Article 6 letters e and f in the Commodity Futures Trading Law, in letter e it is stated that BAPPEBTI has the authority to carry out inspections of parties who have business permits, individual permits, approvals or registration certificates. However, in letter f it is stated that BAPPEBTI appoints another party to carry out certain inspections in the context of implementing BAPPEBTI's authority as referred to in letter e. This shows that BAPPEBTI as a special institution for futures trading cannot be directly involved in enforcing the futures trading system, which means that BAPPEBTI's role in providing legal protection for digital gold customers is not optimal.
