Forest and land fires are a serious problem that has a negative impact on the environment and the economy, especially in the Riau Islands region, including Bintan Regency. The background of this research is the high frequency of forest fires that cause ecosystem damage, air pollution, and significant economic losses. This study aims to analyze the forest and land fire prevention and law enforcement strategies that have been implemented and identify obstacles in their implementation. The research method used is qualitative with a case study approach. The data was collected through in-depth interviews with law enforcement officials, forestry officers, and local communities, as well as analysis of documents related to forest fires in Bintan over the past few years. In addition, questionnaires were also distributed to get a broader perspective on the effectiveness of existing strategies. The results of the study show that although there have been various prevention efforts such as routine patrols, socialization, and the installation of prohibition signs, the effectiveness is still not optimal. The main obstacles identified include limited resources, lack of community participation, difficulty in identifying perpetrators, hard-to-reach terrain, and pressure from certain parties. The lack of resources such as personnel and equipment, as well as the low level of public awareness and participation in forest fire prevention, are the main factors hindering the effectiveness of these strategies. In addition, pressure from landowners or influential parties often hinders firm and fair law enforcement. Suggestions for improving the effectiveness of prevention and enforcement strategies include increasing the budget and capacity of officers, the use of advanced technology for monitoring and investigation, and education and empowerment of local communities. In addition, there is a need for increased coordination between agencies and legal protection for officers who face pressure in carrying out their duties. With a comprehensive and inclusive approach, it is hoped that forest and land fires in Bintan can be minimized, so that a more sustainable environment and a stable economy can be realized

The Sea and Coast Guard Base (PLP) plays a vital role in maintaining maritime security and safety in Indonesia, especially in strategic waters such as the Riau Islands. However, the implementation of the PLP's authority in carrying out its duties at the Tanjung Uban Class II PLP Base has not run optimally. This study aims to analyze the authority of the PLP from a juridical and sociological perspective, as well as identify the obstacles faced and provide recommendations to overcome them. The research methods used are normative juridical and empirical sociology. The normative juridical method is used to analyze various laws and regulations that are the legal basis for the authority of the PLP, such as Law Number 17 of 2008 concerning Shipping, Regulation of the Minister of Transportation of the Republic of Indonesia Number PM 119 of 2021 concerning the Organization and Work Procedures of Marine and Coast Guard Bases, Decree of the Director General of Hubla Number 13/VIII/DV-05 of 2005 concerning the Working Area of Marine and Coast Guard Bases and the Decree of the Director General of Sea Transportation Number KP.867/DJPL/2020 concerning the Patrol of the Marine and Coast Guard Unit of the Directorate General of Sea Transportation. Empirical sociological methods are used to collect data through interviews and direct observations in the field to understand the implementation of PLP authority and the obstacles faced. The results of the study show that limited human resources and equipment, lack of coordination between agencies, inadequate infrastructure, and complex bureaucracy are the main obstacles in the implementation of PLP authority in the Tanjung Uban Class II PLP Base. In addition, the low legal awareness among the maritime community is also a significant challenge. Based on these findings, this study provides several suggestions, including increasing recruitment and training of personnel, procurement and maintenance of patrol boats and supporting equipment, the formation of an inter-agency coordination team, the construction of adequate port facilities, and socialization and education to increase public legal awareness. This research is expected to contribute to strengthening policies and strategies for the implementation of PLP authority, so as to be able to increase effectiveness and efficiency in maintaining maritime security and safety in Indonesian waters.

Law enforcement in the shipping sector is an important aspect in maintaining security and order in Indonesian waters. Civil Servant Investigators (PNS) at the Marine and Coast Guard Base (PLP) have a central role in cracking down on shipping crimes. This study aims to analyze the role of civil servant investigators at the Tanjung Uban Class II PLP Base in law enforcement of shipping crimes, identify the obstacles faced, and provide recommendations to increase the effectiveness of law enforcement. The research methods used are normative juridical and empirical sociology. Normative juridical research is carried out through the study of relevant documents and laws and regulations, such as Law Number 17 of 2008 concerning Shipping and its implementing regulations. Empirical sociological research was conducted through interviews with civil servant investigators, related parties, and analysis of concrete cases handled at the Tanjung Uban Class II PLP Base. The results of the study show that civil servant investigators at the Tanjung Uban Class II PLP Base have an important role in law enforcement of shipping crimes, but face various obstacles. Limited human resources and facilities, lack of coordination between agencies, and technical and legislative obstacles are some of the main obstacles. Case handling such as KM. Putra Harapan Baru and MT. Queen Majesty revealed that violations often occur due to non-compliance with shipping regulations, as well as a lack of legal awareness among shipping industry players. Based on the results of the research, it is recommended that the number and quality of investigators be increased through training and recruitment, investment in adequate facilities and equipment, and increased coordination between agencies. In addition, the adjustment of domestic regulations to international standards and legal awareness campaigns for the public and shipping industry players are also important to ensure compliance with the law. Strengthening legal protection for investigators from external intervention and strict enforcement of the code of ethics will help maintain integrity and professionalism in maritime law enforcement. With this effort, it is hoped that law enforcement of shipping crimes at the Tanjung Uban Class II PLP Base can run more effectively and efficiently.

The incident of residents on Rempang Island rejecting the development of the Rempang Eco-city Project certainly raises many questions for the general public in viewing this problem. With the publication of Coordinating Ministerial Decree Number 7 of 2023 concerning the Third Amendment to Coordinating Ministerial Decree Number 7 of 2021 concerning Amendments to the List of National Strategic Projects, the public is in the spotlight to find out what processes and laws and regulations regulate each process and stage. To study this in more depth, it is necessary to carry out a Juridical Analysis of the Allocation of land in Forest Areas above BP Batam's Management Rights on Rempang Island to be able to find out the legal arrangements, implementation, obstacles and solutions for allocating land in forest areas above BP Batam's Management Rights on the Island. Eccentric. The research method used is a normative and juridical approach, which focuses on doctrinal legal research and refers to legal norms contained in applicable laws and regulations as a normative basis, so this research emphasizes secondary data sources, both in the form of theories- legal theory and through interviews with sources or parties related to the problems to be researched above. All data obtained is then processed, analyzed and interpreted logically, systematically using deductive methods. The results of research on the allocation of land in forest areas above BP Batam's Management Rights on Rempang Island based on applicable laws and regulations are not justified and BP Batam will not be able to use and utilize all or part of its land either for its own use or in collaboration with other parties because BP Batam's authority as the holder of Management Rights will only arise after the issuance of a Management Rights Certificate from the Batam City National Land Agency Office, it is not permitted to carry out new development and development in forest areas before changes to the designation and function of forest areas are made, and if it is on land that will be granted Rights Management still has land/buildings/plants belonging to the people, so compensation for losses and relocation of residents to new residential areas must be carried out first on the basis of deliberation. The author hopes that from the research that has been carried out, the government can create legal products that create a sense of justice for society and can turn the results of this research into useful knowledge for parties facing similar legal problems.

Law enforcement against the Self-Interest Terminal (TUKS) in Tanjung Pinang City is an important issue in the context of shipping safety and environmental protection. The background of this research is based on various violations that occur in the field, such as lack of facility maintenance, non-fulfillment of safety standards, and environmental pollution, which shows the absence of suboptimal law enforcement by the Tanjung Pinang Class II Port Authority (KSOP). The purpose of this study is to assist the legal arrangements that regulate TUKS, identify obstacles in law enforcement, and provide suggestions to overcome these obstacles to improve the effectiveness of law enforcement. The research method used is a normative juridical approach with an analysis of applicable laws and regulations, including Law No. 17 of 2008 concerning Shipping, Law No. 32 of 2014 concerning Marine Affairs, and Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number PM 51 of 2011. In addition, an empirical juridical approach is carried out by interviews and observations to obtain empirical data on the application of law enforcement. The results of the study show that law enforcement by KSOP Class II Tanjung Pinang faces several significant obstacles, such as limited human resources and facilities, lack of coordination between agencies, complicated bureaucratic related procedures, and low awareness and compliance of companies with applicable regulations. These obstacles result in the supervision and enforcement of violations in TUKS not running effectively. To overcome these obstacles, this study suggests several strategic steps. First, increase the capacity and resources of KSOP by increasing protected labor and providing modern equipment. Second, strengthen coordination between agencies through the formation of special forums or committees and the implementation of bureaucratic procedures to accelerate the handling of violations. Third, increasing the awareness and presence of the company through socialization and education programs and involving the public in reporting violations. For this reason, it is recommended to increase the allocation of resources, strengthen coordination between related agencies through the formation of forums or special committees, the community, especially companies that operate TUKS, must actively participate in socialization and education programs organized by KSOP Class II Tanjungpinang and the government and for the Civil Servant Investigator Position to be included in the Position Map within the Technical Implementation Unit of the Directorate General of Sea Transportation of the Ministry Transportation at KSOP Class II Tanjungpnang.
