The results of the calculation of physiological and psychological workload were proposed to increase the number of workers because they experienced a high workload. Police institutions are advised to conduct periodic evaluations to manage the physiological and psychological workload of satreskrim members, so that they remain optimal.

Implementation of the Principle of Constitutional Supremacy in Law Enforcement in Indonesia

2025-08-01T11:54:45+07:00

The principle of constitutional supremacy serves as a foundational cornerstone within Indonesia’s legal and governmental framework, positioning the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia (UUD NRI 1945) as the highest authority in the hierarchy of legislation. This supremacy is not merely symbolic; it acts as a fundamental norm (grundnorm) that should guide both the legislative process and the execution of state power. This article explores how the principle of constitutional supremacy is applied in the enforcement of law in Indonesia, while also highlighting the normative and structural challenges that hinder consistent constitutional adherence. Utilizing a normative juridical approach, this study analyzes statutory regulations, Constitutional Court rulings, and observes state practices. The findings reveal that despite the Constitutional Court’s significant role in safeguarding constitutional integrity through judicial review, implementation at the practical level often suffers from regulatory inconsistencies, non-compliance with constitutional rulings, and limited constitutional understanding among law enforcers and lawmakers. To address these issues, institutional strengthening, legislative reform, and widespread constitutional education are imperative to ensure all state actions and policies are in harmony with the principle of constitutional supremacy.

The Application of the Ultimum Remedium Principle in the Handling of Minor Crimes in Indonesia

2025-08-01T12:03:34+07:00

The principle of ultimum remedium serves as a fundamental concept in criminal law, emphasizing that criminal sanctions should be the final recourse after other legal remedies are deemed insufficient. This doctrine arises from the understanding that criminal law is inherently repressive and should only be employed when non-penal approaches fail to resolve legal issues. In Indonesia, the application of this principle in handling minor criminal offenses remains problematic. Although recent legal reforms have begun to incorporate restorative justice mechanisms, punitive approaches still dominate in practice. Many individuals committing petty crimes continue to be prosecuted through formal judicial proceedings and subjected to imprisonment, despite the relatively minor harm caused. This study explores the extent to which the ultimum remedium principle has been implemented in the enforcement of minor criminal offenses in Indonesia. It also examines the challenges hindering its effective application and offers potential policy recommendations. Using a normative juridical approach, this research analyzes statutory provisions and relevant case studies. The findings indicate that the principle has not been fully realized, primarily due to inconsistent enforcement practices among law enforcement officials and the underdevelopment of alternative dispute resolution frameworks outside the court system.

Optimizing the Function of the House of Representatives in Overseeing the Government in the Digital Government Era

2025-08-01T12:09:46+07:00

The shift towards digital governance has triggered major transformations in public administration, particularly in how oversight is conducted by the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR). The era of digital government is characterized by the adoption of the Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE), which enables electronic data storage, processing, and dissemination. This digital infrastructure offers a significant opportunity for the DPR to enhance its supervisory role through faster, more transparent, and traceable access to government data. However, several challenges persist, including limited access to internal government data, risks of digital information manipulation, and the relatively low level of digital literacy among some legislative members. This study employs a qualitative-descriptive approach to explore these dynamics, with a focus on the DPR’s oversight of digital education funding during the Covid-19 pandemic. The findings reveal that effective parliamentary oversight requires not only open data systems and improved digital competencies among legislators but also active collaboration with civil society. The case of monitoring internet quota assistance and digital infrastructure in underdeveloped, frontier, and outermost (3T) regions illustrates the importance of data-driven and adaptive oversight in formulating responsive public policies. In conclusion, as bureaucracy undergoes digital transformation, strengthening the DPR’s oversight capacity is essential to uphold government transparency and accountability.

Legal Certainty on Business Dispute Resolution Through Arbitration

2025-08-01T12:23:09+07:00

Arbitration has increasingly become the preferred method for resolving business disputes, offering an alternative to the often lengthy and complex litigation process. It presents several advantages, such as expedited proceedings, confidentiality, and final, binding decisions. This article explores how legal certainty is upheld within the arbitration process and evaluates its effectiveness in resolving commercial disputes in Indonesia. The research adopts a normative juridical method, utilizing qualitative analysis of legislation, legal doctrines, and case studies of arbitration awards. The findings indicate that Indonesia’s arbitration framework, governed by Law No. 30 of 1999 concerning Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution, provides a solid legal foundation for arbitration proceedings. The final and non-appealable nature of arbitration decisions enhances legal certainty for the disputing parties. Nevertheless, challenges remain in the enforcement phase, particularly in the execution of arbitral awards through the district courts. These issues highlight the need for better coordination between arbitration institutions and the judiciary, along with improved legal awareness among law enforcement officials regarding the role of arbitration. In conclusion, arbitration continues to play a vital role in ensuring legal certainty and promoting the efficient resolution of business disputes in today’s legal landscape.

The Role of Registered Certificate (SKT) as an Instrument of Legal Protection in Indonesian Tax Administration

2025-08-01T12:30:19+07:00

This study provides a normative legal analysis of the role and challenges of the Certificate of Registration (Surat Keterangan Terdaftar or SKT) as a fundamental legal instrument in Indonesia’s tax administration system. The SKT serves not only as proof of legal authority but also marks the commencement of a taxpayer’s formal tax obligations, whether for individuals or legal entities. Employing a regulatory review approach combined with scholarly literature and relevant legal doctrines, the study reveals that although the SKT is designed to uphold the principle of legality and strengthen the administrative validity of taxation, several practical issues persist. These include inconsistent interpretations, inefficient bureaucratic procedures, and the need for adaptation to digital systems and inter-agency data integration. Such challenges can lead to miscommunication, administrative oversight, and legal vulnerabilities for both taxpayers and tax authorities. To address these concerns, the study recommends regulatory harmonization, enhanced taxpayer education, stronger oversight mechanisms, and improved data verification and security systems. Streamlining administrative procedures and conducting periodic evaluations are essential to reinforce the SKT as a tool for legal protection and certainty within the national tax framework. These findings aim to offer both theoretical insight and practical recommendations for advancing tax law and improving fiscal administrative governance in Indonesia towards a more accountable and equitable system.

Criminal Aspects of Illegal Online Lending Practices in Indonesia

2025-08-01T12:48:37+07:00

The economic crisis, the increasing needs of society, and the development of the internet and digital world are seen as a golden opportunity for official banks and large financiers to gain greater profits. Banks that have existed so far provide loan facilities through applications and internet networks without collateral or guarantees and without complicated conditions. The interest is still affordable, the conditions are also in accordance with Bank Indonesia (BI) regulations and are under the supervision or supervision of the Financial Services Authority (OJK). In addition, there are also large investors, both individually and syndicated and in collaboration with banks that have made a financial technology (fintech) breakthrough in the form of providing online loan facilities or known to the public as "pinjol". This online loan is favored and utilized by people who need money quickly because the conditions are very easy, without collateral or collateral, and directly disbursed to the customer's bank account (borrower). Along with the development of online loans, there are also online loans that are not licensed and operate outside the stipulated provisions or often called illegal online loans. Based on the results of the research, these illegal online loans have mushroomed and operate in violation of criminal provisions and other applicable provisions such as the application of high interest rates, fraud, intimidating collection methods, and dissemination of personal data. If examined closely, the practice of illegal online lending is full of legal violations, especially criminal law, which makes its customers victims. Intimidation and the dissemination of personal data have caused suffering for customers caught up in illegal online loans, even causing someone in Jambi to commit suicide some time ago. This journal will discuss the various criminal offenses that occur in illegal online lending practices and the efforts that can be made to eradicate illegal online lending practices. The author hopes that this Journal can contribute ideas for lawmakers so that in the end a law regulating online loans can be created that provides justice, benefits, and legal certainty for the community, especially users of online loan services.

Optimization of the Integrated Security System Based on Traditional Villages (Sipandu Beradat) In The Framework of Preventing Motor Vehicle Theft in the Jurisdiction of the West Denpasar Police Station

2025-08-01T12:58:34+07:00

Bali, as a premier tourist destination, has led to a high population density in Denpasar, increasing the risk of criminal activities, particularly motor vehicle theft (curanmor) in the West Denpasar jurisdiction. Effective policing efforts, including the implementation of the Integrated Security System Based on Traditional Villages (Sipandu Beradat), are needed to address this issue. However, due to the persistently high number of curanmor cases in the past three years, it is necessary to study the implementation and factors influencing the optimization of Sipandu Beradat. This study employs theories of cooperation, the Sipandu Beradat concept, policing science, management theory, crime prevention theory, and optimization concepts. The research is conducted using a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach, involving interviews, observations, and document studies. Data analysis techniques include data reduction and data triangulation. The findings indicate that the Sipandu Beradat Forum has undertaken several efforts to prevent motor vehicle theft, such as joint patrols, socialization, inter-element communication, and regulation of incoming residents. However, these efforts have not been maximized due to several internal factors, including the lack of government-allocated funding and human resource constraints, as well as external factors such as environmental conditions and public vigilance. To optimize these efforts, it is necessary to secure funding, enhance personnel quality, and organize tasks and responsibilities more effectively. The conclusion of this study.

Legal Protection For Victims of Criminal Offense In The Perspective of Law Number 16 of 2011 on Legal Aid

2025-08-01T13:08:06+07:00

This research discusses legal protection for victims of criminal acts according to Law Number 16 of 2011 concerning Legal Aid. Although legal aid is very important and needed for victims of criminal acts, its application is still limited, especially litigation legal aid for victims, which results in many victims of criminal acts not getting legal aid assistance. The provisions in Law Number 16 of 2011 limit the provision of litigation legal aid only to suspects, defendants, and convicts, resulting in victims being neglected. This research aims to explore efforts to provide legal aid for victims based on Law Number 16 of 2011 concerning Legal Aid and the importance of legal protection assistance for victims of criminal acts.

Effectiveness Implementation of Fine Criminal Sanction in Extraordinary Events or Pandemic Outbreak According to the Law Number 17 of 2023 Concerning Health (Health Omnibus Law)

2025-08-01T13:16:42+07:00

Pandemic outbreak is a non-natural disaster that is physically invisible and difficult to detect. Along with the experience and high death rate in Covid-19, it has encouraged the Government to issue Law No. 17 of 2023 concerning Health (Health Omnibus Law). Criminalization is the path chosen by the government as a form of state priority for the people in overcoming the spread and transmission of the pandemic outbreak. However, currently there is still a polemic about how legal action uses criminal sanctions during a pandemic. The study was conducted using a descriptive method, which aims to examine the effectiveness of the application of criminal sanctions for anyone who obstructs the implementation of efforts to control pandemic outbreak or violates health protocols. The results of this study indicate that Article 446 of Law No. 17 of 2023 concerning Health (Omnibus Law of Health) is the basis for criminalization for violators of the pandemic outbreak response, with the imposition of a maximum criminal fine of IDR 500,000,000 (Five hundred million Rupiah). With restrictions on movement accompanied by administrative sanctions alone, it has made the people's economy very difficult, especially if it is added to criminal fine. The sense of justice and legal certainty for the community is increasingly absent. The application of criminal sanctions should not be applied during a pandemic, because everyone has the right to maintain their own lives. This only adds to the suffering of people who do not agree with government policies by forcing them to follow health protocol rules that are contrary to their conscience.

Legal Schools in Islam, History of the Emergence of Legal Schools, Differences of Opinion About the Position of Legal Sources

2025-08-10T19:49:58+07:00

Differences of opinion among scholars in the fields of Islamic law actually occurred during the time of the Companions of the Prophet. However, these differences can still be overcome with political policies and the legality of ijmak. However, at the end of the Companion period, known as the Tabi'in period (approximately starting in 41 AH), differences of opinion could not be resolved like they were resolved during the Companion period. This is where the process of transitioning Islamic law began from a form of ijtihad which was based on the greatness of friends to a scientific and measurable process until the birth of school imams who codified the results of their legal thinking in the form of fiqh books. Ahl al-Hadith and Ahl al-ra'y are two forms of legal thought that ushered in this transition process. That period was the time when efforts to shape Islamic law began to suit societal conditions and rationality. The school of thought is the main idea or basis used by the mujtahid Imam in solving problems; or adhere to Islamic law. The emergence of the school of thought, as part of the historical process of establishing Islamic law, was neatly arranged from generations of friends, tabi'in, until it reached its golden age in the Abbasid Caliphate, but it must be acknowledged that the school of thought has made a major contribution to thinking in establishing Islamic jurisprudence law. The reasons for the differences opinion/school of thought due to differences in perception in ushul fiqh and fiqh as well as differences in interpretation or interpretation of mujtahids. Adhering to the understanding of bermahzab, due to factors Our "inability" to explore Sharia law itself directly from its sources (the Koran and Sunnah). The source of Islamic law is the most basic thing in the process of establishing a law. In Islam, the main sources of law are the Al-Quran and Sunnah.

Sexual Dysfunction in Schizophenia Patients

2025-08-10T19:59:50+07:00

Sexual dysfunction (SD) is a significant but often overlooked complication among patients with schizophrenia, with a global prevalence of 56.4%—55.7% in men and 60.0% in women. SD in this population is generally caused by both the symptoms of schizophrenia and the side effects of antipsychotic treatment, leading to diminished motivation for intimacy and potential disruption of marital relationships. Despite its impact on quality of life, SD remains underdiagnosed and stigmatized in clinical practice. This literature review aims to explore the general aspects of sexual dysfunction, its various types in patients with schizophrenia, and potential treatment strategies based on current clinical guidelines and considerations. The review was conducted using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) method. Findings show that the global incidence of sexual dysfunction among schizophrenia patients increased by over 65% between 1990 and 2019, affecting an estimated 941,000 to 1.3 million individuals, primarily due to antipsychotic use. Management strategies include reducing antipsychotic dosages or switching to prolactin-sparing medications, with aripiprazole being the most frequently recommended option.

The Implementation of Project Based Learning Model in CAD/CAM Instruction to Improve Learning Outcomes of Mechanical Engineering Students

2025-08-10T20:39:16+07:00

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of implementing the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model in the CAD/CAM course to improve the learning outcomes of Mechanical Engineering students at Universitas Tomakaka. Using a quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design, the study involved 60 fourth-semester students divided equally into an experimental group taught with PjBL and a control group taught using conventional methods. Data were collected through cognitive tests, project assessments, and affective rubrics, then analyzed using normality and homogeneity tests, independent t-tests, and N-Gain scores.
The findings showed that the experimental group experienced significant improvement in cognitive learning outcomes, with higher posttest scores and moderate to high N-Gain values, compared to the control group, which demonstrated only low improvement. Psychomotor outcomes also revealed a strong positive effect, with the PjBL group outperforming the control group in 3D modeling accuracy, design quality, and software utilization. Furthermore, affective outcomes highlighted that the experimental group exhibited greater teamwork, communication, and participation, supported by significant statistical differences.
These results confirm that PjBL is an effective learning model that enhances not only cognitive and technical competencies but also essential soft skills required by the engineering profession. The integration of PjBL in CAD/CAM courses provides a holistic learning experience that prepares students to face the challenges of Industry 4.0. This study recommends broader implementation of PjBL in technical education, supported by adequate facilities and collaboration with industry to ensure the relevance and sustainability of project-based curricula.

Sound Learning Strategies for Phase F Students with Intellectual Disabilities in Special Needs Schools

2025-08-10T20:49:04+07:00

This study aimed to describe the implementation of physics learning on the sound topic for intellectually disabled students in phase F at Special Schools, and to find out how teachers adjusted strategies, interactions, and learning media based on students’ characteristics. This research used a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, with validation using method triangulation. The results showed that physics learning on the sound topic was conducted in three stages: preliminary, core, and closing activities. In the preliminary stage, the teacher greeted, prayed, and gave appreciation, but the learning objectives were not clearly stated. In the core activities, the teacher used the lecture method with textbooks as the main learning resource, while the use of concrete media or technology was minimal. The interaction between teachers and students tended to be one-way, and not all students were actively engaged.In the closing stage, the teacher asked students to independently summarize the material and assigned homework as an evaluation tool. The learning strategies were mostly verbal and had not fully involved multisensory media or individual approaches tailored to students’ needs.In conclusion, the teacher made efforts to adjust the learning strategies to the characteristics of intellectually disabled students in phase F. However, improvement was still needed, particularly in the use of varied learning media, fostering more active interactions, and applying more concrete and participatory learning approaches to enhance learning effectiveness.

The Effectiveness of Silica and Activated Carbon Sand Filters in Reducing BOD, COD, and TSS Levels of Liquid Waste at Boalemo Regency Farmers and Fishermen Hospital

2025-08-10T20:58:38+07:00

Hospital liquid waste is waste from medical activities in the form of liquids containing organic compounds, toxic chemicals, and pathogenic microorganisms that are harmful to health and the environment. The BOD, COD, and TSS parameters can be used to measure the content of organic and inorganic matter in hospital liquid waste. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of silica sand and activated carbon filters in reducing the levels of BOD, COD, and TSS of liquid waste at the Boalemo Regency Farmers and Fishermen Hospital.

The type of research is Quasi Experiment with a Pre Test-Post Test Group design. The sampling technique is Grab Sample. Wastewater samples were taken from a single reservoir (inlet) and analyzed before and after silica sand and activated carbon filtration. The data analysis technique uses the Paired Sample T Test.

The results showed that the BOD and COD levels of hospital liquid waste before and after filtration using silica sand and activated carbon with three filters were obtained as a result of a reduction in BOD levels of 94 mg/L (75.32%) and COD of 95 mg/L (78.21%). Meanwhile, TSS levels increased by 312.1 mg/L caused by saturation of filtration media. This media has been shown to be effective in reducing BOD levels with p-value = 0.000 and COD with p-value = 0.000. However, there was no difference in TSS levels before and after the filtration of silica sand and activated carbon with p-value = 0.109.

The Boalemo Regency Farmers and Fishermen Hospital is advised to monitor liquid waste and to further researchers to modify silica sand and activated carbon filtration media with other media to increase its effectiveness.

The results show that in Madurese weddings, the values of family honor and social unity are highly valued. Wedding rituals are not just about ceremony, but also reflect the relationship between two extended families connected by long-standing traditions. Regarding gender roles, women are generally expected to maintain the family's dignity, while men play a greater role in economic matters and decision-making. However, over time, there has been a gradual shift in the younger generation's perspective on gender roles in marriage, with more couples beginning to discuss equality in their relationships.

The Concept of Religious Moderation in Islamic Education According to Nurcholish Madjid's Thoughts

2025-08-11T16:13:11+07:00

Recently, Islam has faced two major challenges from within itself: first, the challenge stemming from some Muslims who are extreme, harsh, and strict in their understanding of religious verses and who constantly try to impose their views on other Muslims, often even resorting to violence in their indoctrination. Second, the challenge stemming from some Muslims who are lax, seemingly directionless in their religious practices and who follow negative ideas originating from other religious cultures and civilizations. Strengthening religious moderation is an effort to ensure that, no matter how diverse, interpretations and understandings of religion remain within the framework of the code, preventing the emergence of extreme religious practices. It also serves as a basis for understanding the substance of religious teachings that accommodate the values of humanity, culture, nationality, diversity, and adherence to the constitution in force in the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. Therefore, one effort to strengthen religious moderation is through education. Nurcholish Madjid, an intellectual figure who championed a reformist concept for multicultural Islamic education, emphasizing an open attitude to new ideas that could be implemented in education, is an intellectual figure. Therefore, this study examines strengthening religious moderation through Islamic education, according to Nurcholish Madjid's thinking. The research questions addressed in this study are Nurcholish Madjid's conceptualization of religious moderation, his conceptualization of religious moderation in Islamic education, and his implementation of religious moderation in Islamic education. The research method used is library research with a content analysis approach. Nurcholish Madjid's concept of religious moderation has given rise to three concepts: first, inclusive theology, second, tolerance, and third, religious pluralism. These concepts have implications for Islamic education: first, non-dichotomous Islamic education, second, democratic Islamic education, third, pluralist Islamic education, and fourth, humanist Islamic education. Nurcholish Madjid's concept of religious moderation in Islamic education has been implemented in the universities and schools he founded: Paramadina University, Madania Islamic Boarding School, and Global Sevilla International School (GSIS).

Analysis of the People's Rubber Marketing System in Mandailing Natal: Review of Distribution Channels, Margins, and Efficiency

Smallholder rubber is a leading commodity that plays a vital role in the regional economy, particularly in Mandailing Natal Regency, which is known as one of the main rubber-producing areas in North Sumatra. However, the marketing system for smallholder rubber in this region still faces several structural constraints that significantly affect farmers' income. This article aims to analyze the distribution channels, margin distribution, and marketing efficiency of smallholder rubber in Mandailing Natal using a literature review approach. The data were obtained from various scientific publications, government reports, and agribusiness studies published over the past ten years. The review found two common marketing channel patterns: a long channel (farmers ? local collectors ? wholesalers ? factories) and a short channel (farmers ? wholesalers ? factories). The short channel proves to be more profitable for farmers by reducing intermediaries and increasing marketing efficiency. Additionally, farmers' share of profit margins increases significantly under the short channel. Nonetheless, challenges such as weak farmer institutions, limited market access, and lack of price information remain major obstacles. Therefore, recommended strategies include establishing marketing cooperatives, improving distribution infrastructure, and digitizing price information systems. Enhancing the existing marketing system is expected to improve the welfare of smallholder rubber farmers in Mandailing Natal sustainably.
