The policy plan to integrate parking fees into the Vehicle Registration Certificate (STNK), scheduled for nationwide implementation in 2027, has generated debate regarding contractual validity and fiscal justice. From the perspective of Islamic Economic Law, the transformation from a conventional pay-per-use retribution system to an annual prepaid system raises issues related to mutual consent (an-taradin) and the certainty of service benefits. This study aims to analyze the 2027 subscription parking policy using the framework of Maslahah Mursalah and the principle of distributive economic justice to assess its legitimacy as an instrument of public welfare. This research uses a normative legal method with conceptual and statutory approaches. Literature data are analyzed qualitatively through deductive reasoning to derive legal conclusions from general principles of Islamic economics in relation to contemporary fiscal policy. The findings indicate that the policy contains elements of Maslahah Mursalah, particularly in improving bureaucratic efficiency and preventing state revenue leakage (sadd adz-dzari'ah). However, from the perspective of distributive justice, the policy may contain elements of dzulm (injustice) if it is not supported by fair tariff segmentation. Without guaranteed service availability for all payers, mandatory annual parking fees risk being categorized as akl al-amwal bi al-bathil (unlawful appropriation of wealth). Therefore, a zoning-based tariff system is recommended to ensure fairness between obligations and benefits.

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of market governance and the implementation of affirmative policies for Indigenous Papuan traders (OAP) at the Sorong City Central Market in 2026. Using a mixed methods approach with a sequential explanatory design, quantitative data were collected through a survey of 90 OAP trader respondents, followed by in-depth interviews with key informants from government elements and community leaders. The study results show a high level of trader dissatisfaction (58.7%), particularly regarding trade zoning and price protection. Qualitative findings reveal that affirmative policies remain administrative in nature and fail to address spatial marginalization, placing OAP traders in low-accessibility areas. This study recommends restructuring market zoning to be more equitable, standardizing local commodity prices, and digitizing trader data to ensure that Special Autonomy policies are on target. By addressing these core issues, it is hoped that the market environment in Sorong City will be more inclusive and supportive of OAP traders, fostering economic empowerment in line with the goals of Special Autonomy.

The implementation of the zoning-based admission policy (PPDB) in Semarang City continues to face challenges related to the accuracy of distance measurement and the transparency of information provided to the public. This study aims to examine the application of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in defining zoning boundaries for public junior high schools in Semarang City and integrating the results into a web-based information platform. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed, incorporating spatial analysis through a 3-kilometer buffer radius using QGIS software. The results indicate that buffer analysis is effective in delineating priority domicile zones based on school coordinate data. These findings are integrated into a GIS-based website that presents visual information on school locations, enrollment capacity, and final score calculation mechanisms in accordance with current regulations. The proposed system contributes to improving information transparency, enabling the public to better understand admission opportunities while supporting government decision-making in promoting equitable access to education. For future development, the use of road network analysis is recommended to obtain more realistic distance estimations.

The issue of street vendors (PKL) in Sidoarjo Regency, particularly in the Gading Fajar area, has become a significant concern as it relates to public order, the use of public space, and the economic dynamics of small communities. To address these challenges, the Sidoarjo Regency Government enacted Regional Regulation Number 3 of 2016 as the legal basis for structuring and empowering PKL. This study examines how the regulation is implemented in practice and evaluates its effectiveness using a qualitative descriptive method through interviews, observations, and documentation, analyzed with Leo Agustino’s policy evaluation model, which assesses five key aspects: administrative resources, institutional coordination, infrastructure and technology, financial support, and regulatory adequacy. The findings show that the implementation of the regulation has not yet reached optimal performance, as limited socialization, insufficient personnel, weak coordination among agencies, inadequate supporting facilities, and low compliance with zoning rules hinder the achievement of policy objectives. These issues are reflected in the continued presence of PKL operating in non-designated areas despite clear regulatory provisions. Therefore, strengthening institutional capacity, improving facilities, enhancing enforcement consistency, and developing more operational technical guidelines are essential to ensure more effective and sustainable management and empowerment of street vendors in Sidoarjo Regency.

The zoning system policy in the New Student Enrolment (PPDB) is an educational policy reform aimed at equalising access to services and improving the quality of education in Indonesia. This research analyses the implementation of the PPDB zoning system policy at the level of State Junior Secondary Schools using George C. Edward III's policy implementation theory approach, which covers four main variables: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The research method employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive research type. Data collection techniques were conducted through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation study of the regulations implementing the zoning system policy. The findings show that the implementation of the PPDB zoning system policy has proceeded in accordance with the technical regulations of Permendikbud Number 01 of 2021 and Sidoarjo Regent Regulation Number 37 of 2020. The admission routes provided include the zoning route, achievement, affirmation, and parental transfer, which offer fair opportunities for all prospective students. Nevertheless, there are still obstacles in the execution, particularly related to the limited infrastructure for distance learning, public perception regarding the selection mechanism, and the disparity between the number of available places (quota) and the number of applicants for certain routes. This research recommends the need for more comprehensive socialisation, improvement of supporting infrastructure, and periodic evaluation of policy implementation to ensure the achievement of the goal of equitable and quality education.

This article explores the dynamics of implementing the New Student Admission (PPDB) policy, focusing on the zoning system. The study aims to analyze how this policy is carried out at the school level and the various challenges encountered during its implementation. Using a qualitative approach through observations, interviews, and document studies, the findings show that although the zoning system has succeeded in reducing the distance between students’ homes and schools, disparities in school quality remain unresolved. The affirmative pathway has not effectively reached its target groups due to limited outreach and lack of supporting facilities. Additionally, technical issues such as online system errors, address manipulation, and poor coordination between schools and education offices are significant obstacles in implementation. The study concludes that improving digital systems, enhancing human resource capacity, and actively involving communities are essential steps to ensure equitable access to and quality of education as envisioned by the policy.

Pasuruan City has an economic dynamic driven by the informal sector, especially street vendors (PKL), which play a crucial role in supporting the community's economy. One of the locations that is the center of street vendor activities is the Pasuruan City Square area. Despite its strategic value, the presence of street vendors in the area has caused problems related to order, cleanliness, and public space management. In response, the Pasuruan City Government has enacted Local Regulation No. 2/2013 on the Arrangement and Empowerment of Street Vendors. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the policy and identify factors that support and hinder its implementation. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach by referring to Van Meter and Van Horn's policy implementation theory, which includes six main indicators. Data collection techniques were conducted through interviews, observation, documentation, and literature study. The results show that policy implementation is quite effective, as seen from the addition of official locations, assistance with facilities such as carts, and entrepreneurship training. However, challenges remain, mainly related to limited human resources and low compliance of street vendors with zoning regulations.
