Abstract

Sexual violence is a crime against humanity. Because, it is, closely related to human rights Cases of sexual violence caused the government to issue the idea of castration for perpetrators of sexual violence. However, this raises pros and cons in the community. The problem of this research is, how is the imposition of castration sanctions on pedophiles from a human rights perspective, and what are the supporting and inhibiting factors for implementing castration sanctions against pedophiles? The study uses a normative juridical and empirical juridical approach carried out on theoretical matters of legal principles. In contrast, the empirical approach is carried out to study the law in reality through behavioural assessments. The study results stated that the perspective of imposing castration sanctions on pedophile perpetrators also reaped the pros and cons in its implementation. Some thought that castration sanctions were quite effective if applied to perpetrators of sexual crimes to immediately provide a deterrent effect on perpetrators and break the chain of sexual crimes that developed in the community. Opinions against the castration sanction are also criticised by various groups, including human rights activists, because castration is considered a cruel punishment for perpetrators, and cruel punishments aim to torture the perpetrators of the crime, but this is undoubtedly related to human rights. Supporting and inhibiting factors for the implementation of castration sanctions against pedophile perpetrators. Supporting factors for the discourse of castration sanctions on perpetrators of sexual crimes against children are caused by the high number of sexual crimes in Indonesia, which has entered a dangerous stage. It was passed into Law Number 17 of 2016. The inhibiting factor is that castration sanctions are not allowed in the national criminal law system. The purpose of punishment, castration is a violation of human rights, seen from the facilities or facilities. Furthermore, there are obstacles from the executor of the castration crime, namely doctors, because it contradicts the code of ethics (KODEKI). Suggestions in this study should be in imposing criminal acts of sexual violence against children to pay attention to humane punishments without degrading and provide benefits, namely a deterrent effect.

Abstract

A presidential threshold or a threshold for presidential candidacy dramatically hinders a person's democratic rights. This is because a person can rightfully nominate and elect themselves through a political party, which must be limited due to this system. The Presidential Threshold could eliminate the fundamental rights of the people in the constitution, where every citizen has the right to be elected and to vote. This statement is stated in Article 28(D) paragraph 3 of the 1945 Constitution, later revealed to be Law No.39 of 1999. With the existence of this presidential threshold, it is feared that it could injure the law's mandate. The research aims to determine whether the presidential threshold injured democracy and the mandate of the 1945 constitution. This research uses a normative approach. The research will focus on the principles, comparisons and history of law. The presidential threshold will close the space for political parties to carry the best presidential and vice-presidential candidates for the community. This automatically kills democracy, political parties' constitutional rights, and the people's right to choose the best and quality, leaders.

Abstract

Protection of Freedom of association, assembly, and expression as recognition of human rights. Through the Community Organization Law, the state regulates the balance in protecting rights without neglecting social responsibility. This balance is regulated as an effort to safeguard the country's sovereignty. This paper uses the following approaches: a) conceptual approach, to look at concepts of law and democracy that are relevant to the research problem; b) statute approach, a juridical normative analytic research approach, the research based on critical thinking by referring to legal sources of the Community Organization Law. This research concludes that Pancasila seeks to build harmony and balance between individual and national interests (society). Therefore, the freedom that exists in Indonesia is not an absolute right. This means that these freedoms are subject to many restrictions established in law. Principlescontrary to Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia have triggered the government to expand the prohibition against mass organizations. These principles aim to change the ideological basis of Pancasila and choose to make changes in the mechanism for revoking the status of a legal entity using the principle of contrarius actus to be more effective and efficient in taking action.

Abstract

In the Working Committee Meeting of the Draft Law on Personal Data Protection, there was a proposal to establish an Independent Supervisory Authority in the protection of personal data. With the existence of an independent supervisory authority, it is hoped that it will create impartial and optimal independence in its supervision and enforcement. The purpose of this study is to analyze the urgency of the Independent Supervisory Authority in the protection of personal data and the ideal concept of the Independent Supervisory Authority in the protection of personal data in Indonesia based on comparisons in other countries. This study uses a normative legal research method using a statutory approach, a conceptual approach, and a comparative approach. The results of this study indicate that the existence of an Independent Supervisory Authority in Indonesia in enforcing the protection of personal data is very important given the considerations of independence, adequacy, checks and balances, and socialization. Regarding the concept of establishing an Independent Supervisory Authority, there are two choices that can be made in Indonesia, namely by establishing it specifically as a separate institution, such as Hong Kong and South Korea, or embedding and adding to the authority of existing institutions such as in Singapore and the United States. With consideration of efficiency and effectiveness, in Indonesia this can be done by attaching an Independent Supervisory Authority with other related institutions such as the Information Commission with the obligation to change the existing institutional structure as an adjustment.

Abstract

Problems in the labor law sector in Indonesia cannot be separated from the increasing number of foreign workers which are feared to take the place and role of domestic workers. This problem almost always exists every year because foreign investment enters Indonesia while bringing in foreign workers as expert workers or genuine workers from the investors' countries of origin. The entry of foreign workers is a trigger for disputes between foreign workers and domestic workers. As it is known that the Indonesian population is very large, which can be seen from the annual data of the national statistical center, while the high population is not matched by a large number of jobs, resulting in unemployment and regional economic inequality. Based on this background, the problem of foreign workers is related to the renewal of the Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation (herein after referred to as the Job Creation Law) and its implementing regulations. This paper uses a normative legal research method using legal sources from secondary legal materials. This legal research uses a legal and conceptual approach with a focus on regulations and concepts or theories or principles related to the research topic. This paper presents problems in the new regulation on foreign workers after the enactment of the Job Creation Law. In addition, this paper presents its solution efforts to overcome these problems in Indonesia. This paper uses a normative legal research method using legal sources from secondary legal materials.

Abstract

The elimination of discriminatory value added tax (VAT) laws on commodities are required for the proper functioning of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) single market. The proper functioning of a single market entails the elimination of discriminatory internal VAT regulations of imported goods or services. Hence, the purpose of this study is to empirically examine the need for harmonizing VAT legislation among GCC countries. The data of this study was collected through a variety of sources, including the ministry's website, VAT law for each country, published articles, and other online data sources/websites with regards to VAT. The data were statistically evaluated using Microsoft Excel. The dependent variable in this study is Harmonization. The factors affecting Value Added Tax Legislation are also called independent variables. Through this search, they harmonize VAT legislation in the GCC countries to maximize the effectiveness of tax laws. That helps to know the challenges faced by GCC companies due to discriminatory VAT regulations and double taxation.  There is a need to harmonize VAT legislation in the GCC countries to maximize the effectiveness of tax laws. This study adds value by assessing the present state and the need for harmonizing VAT legislation in the GCC countries.

Abstract

Privacy is the essential thing regulated in Human Rights. As a country that recognizes human rights, Indonesia is a state that adheres to the principles of human rights and also recognizes that privacy is a human right that the state must protect. However, no law addresses the issue of public data protection in Indonesia comprehensively. On Monday, October 18, 2021, data leaks on the identity of the complainant and underage victim, case summary, and mediation results were found. It has at least two significant impacts, firstly it can impact the inhibition of KPAI's performance due to public trust, and secondly, it will have a worse impact on victims and whistleblowers, both physically and mentally, because this can trigger predatory movement. The research method used is normative legal research based on secondary data library research which is descriptive, evaluative, and prescriptive. Several approaches are used, namely the legal approach, conceptual, to answer the first question, the point of contact between individual and state interest, and a comparative approach to answer the second problem regarding the dynamics of personal data protection arrangements in the problem of data leakage experienced by KPAI. Therefore, Indonesia needs to immediately legitimate the Draft Law on Public Data Protection (RUU PDP) so that the urgency of the legalization of public data protection can be immediately resolved.
