The primary legal framework governing forex trading in Indonesia is Law No. 10 of 2011, which amends Law No. 32 of 1997 on Commodity Futures Trading. Although this law does not explicitly mention forex, forex trading falls under the category of derivative contracts as it involves transactions based on the fluctuation of currency exchange rates. This research employs normative legal methods to analyze the relevant regulations. The findings indicate that the Indonesian legal framework offers comprehensive protection to investors and brokers engaged in forex trading. Key protections include strict supervision by the Commodity Futures Trading Regulatory Agency (Bappebti), requirements for the segregation of client funds, prohibitions against market manipulation, and stringent licensing requirements. Additionally, the law provides structured procedures for dispute resolution to ensure fairness and efficiency in resolving conflicts. Both administrative and criminal sanctions are imposed to ensure compliance and integrity in the forex trading market. The existence of Bappebti’s regulations, such as the Electronic Customer Acceptance Regulation in Commodity Futures Trading, further enhances the safety and reliability of online forex trading. Overall, Indonesia's regulatory framework establishes a secure and transparent environment for online forex trading, safeguarding the interests of all parties involved. This ensures that both investors and brokers can engage in trading activities with greater confidence, knowing that robust legal protections are in place.</em></p> Sergius Utusan Kudus Orpa J Nubatonis Yossie M.

The research method used is normative juridical with a literature approach. The research results show: (1) Wantimpres has limited authority with advisory powers that are recommendatory and not mandatory for the President to implement, (2) The lack of executive authority of Wantimpres reduces its effectiveness in influencing public policy, and (3) The strategic function of Wantimpres often overlaps with other institutions and lacks transparency and accountability, while its advice can be ignored without clear legal or political consequences.</em></p> Gladys Chyntia Malo Saryono Yohanes Cyrilius W.

This topic is important because, to date, there are no specific regulations that explicitly govern the rights of internet banking users. This research focuses on two main questions: how legal protection is provided to internet banking customers at Bank BRI, and what challenges are encountered in the implementation of such legal protection. The research method used is normative, with a legislative approach to relevant laws and regulations, such as Law No. 10 of 1998 on Banking, Law No. 8 of 1999 on Consumer Protection, as well as regulations from the Financial Services Authority (OJK) and Bank Indonesia, which govern customer data security and digital banking services. The research results show that Bank BRI has implemented preventive legal protection measures, such as security policies, customer education, and security technologies like Secure Socket Layer (SSL). However, significant challenges in providing legal protection to customers include the complexity of regulations related to cybercrime and the lack of law enforcement that adapts to new technological developments, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain. Cross-border jurisdiction also becomes an obstacle in handling cybercrime cases. Additionally, the lack of customer education on cybersecurity increases the risk of attacks, while cyber threats continue to evolve with increasingly sophisticated methods. This research is expected to contribute to the development of more effective legal protection regulations for internet banking customers.</em></p> Samson Ratuloli Orpa J Nubatonis Husni Kusuma Dinata ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2024-10-20 2024-10-20 2 2 343 357 TINJAUAN YURIDIS TERHADAP TANDA BUKTI HAK SEBAGAI PETUNJUK KEPEMILIKAN HAK ATAS TANAH (STUDI PUTUSAN PENGADILAN NOMOR 41/PDT.BTH/2019/PN KUPANG) https://ejurnal.undana.ac.id/index.php/plj/article/view/18886 <p><em>Land disputes in Indonesia often give rise to complex legal problems, especially those related to certainty of ownership of land rights. This research aims to analyze the strength of evidence in the land dispute between CF as the plaintiff and LT as the defendant, based on Court Decision Number 41/PDT.BTH/2019/PN Kupang. This case involves land located in Oepura Village, Kupang City, which is claimed as inheritance by both parties. The research method used is normative juridical research with a case approach. Data was obtained through literature study and analysis of documents submitted in the trial. The evidence examined includes Certificates of Ownership Rights, Land Reform Letters, as well as various previous court decisions. The research results showed that the evidence submitted by the plaintiff, even though it included formal documents such as Certificates of Ownership and Supreme Court Decisions, was considered not clear enough in describing the boundaries of the disputed land. On the other hand, the evidence presented by the defendant, including previous court decisions and executorial letters, is considered stronger because it shows continuity of ownership and legal validity. The conclusion of this research is that in land disputes, the court not only considers formal documents such as land certificates, but also the clarity of the land object in dispute. The strength and consistency of evidence is the main factor in determining the direction of the court's decision. In this case, the court sided with the defendant because the evidence presented was stronger and supported the land ownership claim.</em></p> Anna Xaveria Ekaputri Wungo Darius Mauritius Chatryen M Dju Bire ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2024-10-20 2024-10-20 2 2 358 370 10.35508/pelana.v2i2.18886 EFEKTIVITAS PENERAPAN ASAS LANGSUNG, UMUM, BEBAS, RAHASIA, JUJUR, DAN ADIL DALAM PENYELENGGARAAN PEMILIHAN UMUM ANGGOTA DEWAN PERWAKILAN RAKYAT DAERAH (DPRD) KOTA KUPANG TAHUN 2024 https://ejurnal.undana.ac.id/index.php/plj/article/view/18859 <p><em>This study examines the implementation of the principles of direct, general, free, secret, honest, and fair elections (LUBER JURDIL) in the 2024 elections for the Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD) of Kupang City.

However, after obtaining a permit from the Court, the Kelapa Lima sector police did not confiscate evidence on the grounds of lack of personnel. Article 38 of the Criminal Procedure Code has expressly stated that confiscation can only be carried out by investigators with a permit from the chairman of the local court. It should have been carried out with a permit from the chairman of the confiscation court.

Using an empirical legal approach and direct interviews with Department staff and prospective PMI registered in the SIAPKERJA application, the research explores the administrative and technical processes conducted by the Department. The findings reveal that the Department strives to provide comprehensive protection through document validation, training, and interagency coordination. However, challenges such as limited training facilities, insufficient socialization at the village level, and the negative role of brokers still persist. Cooperation between local government and related institutions, such as BP3MI, is crucial to achieving optimal protection for prospective migrant workers.

KTA has become one of the most widely used financing instruments by MSMEs because it does not require physical collateral from borrowers. However, despite providing easier access to financing, there are several challenges in its implementation, particularly related to the risk of non-performing loans and the legal protection for both parties. This research employs a normative legal approach by examining banking regulations governing KTA agreements and the responsibilities of banks in their execution. The analysis focuses on provisions in banking laws that regulate transparency, fair interest rates, and dispute resolution mechanisms. In addition, the study highlights the role of banks in conducting thorough credit risk assessments and the importance of educating MSME borrowers on sound financial management. The findings of this study indicate that KTA can be an effective solution for supporting the growth of MSMEs in Indonesia, provided that the agreements are implemented in accordance with applicable regulations. The conclusions emphasize the importance of enhancing compliance with banking regulations and transparency in providing information to borrowers. Improved consumer protection and credit risk management are also critical steps to ensure the sustainability of KTA as a financing instrument for MSMEs.</em></p> Romana Ratu Dara Orpa Juliana Nubatonis Yossie M.

The method used is empirical research, with primary data obtained through interviews and observations. The results show that law enforcement in waste management at Wolowona Market is still suboptimal, marked by insufficient supporting facilities, low public awareness, and weak legal actions against violations. Efforts such as socialization, community service, and inter-agency collaboration have been carried out, but limitations in human resources, budget, and coordination remain major obstacles. This study recommends enhancing law enforcement, including strict administrative sanctions, provision of adequate facilities, and intensive public awareness campaigns.

The findings of this research indicate that the legal protection of TKBM at Tenau Kupang Port is in accordance with Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Labour. The protection encompasses working time, rest time, work safety, and the provision of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to minimise the risk of accidents. However, the implementation of these measures is hindered by several factors. These include wage uncertainty, which is dependent on the frequency of ship arrivals, the wage gap between containers and bulk containers, and a lack of awareness regarding the importance of PPE use. Furthermore, inclement weather, damage to transport equipment, and instances of thuggery pose additional challenges to the protection of TKBM's welfare and safety.

The research method used is empirical juridical with a case and conceptual approach. Data was collected through interviews, observation and document study. The research results show that the main factors for PMI choosing the illegal route are the faster and easier departure process, as well as their low level of education which makes them vulnerable to the persuasion of brokers. Illegal PMI do not receive the legal, economic, social and health protection that should be their right. The impacts experienced include violence, exploitation and lack of guarantees of safety. Mitigation efforts carried out by the government include promoting safe migration, collaborating with religious and community institutions, as well as increasing supervision and legal protection. The conclusion of this research is the importance of increasing public awareness about the risks of working through illegal channels and the need to improve the government's system of protecting and placing PMI.

Starting from compensation for the land that has been acquired and the time of land acquisition or relocation of the community. The implementation of land acquisition for public interest often experiences obstacles and challenges. The application of a fair compensation mechanism in the construction of Temef Dam in South Central Timor Regency is important considering the potential for conflict that can arise between the landowner community and the government. These conflicts can arise due to various factors, such as disagreements over compensation values, late payments, or lack of information provided to the community. Therefore, the principles stated in Law Number 2 of 2012 concerning Land Acquisition for Development in the Public Interest, such as transparency, justice, and consensus, must be implemented properly so that the land acquisition process can take place peacefully and meet the interests of all parties. These inhibiting factors illustrate some of the fundamental challenges that often arise in land acquisition projects, especially in the context of the Temef Dam construction. The discrepancy in compensation values ​​is one of the biggest factors that triggers community objections. Local communities often feel that the compensation offered does not reflect the market value or potential economic benefits of their land, especially for land used for agriculture or other productive economic activities.</em></p> Andry Samuel Manafe Yossie M Y Jacob Husni Kusuma Dinata ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2025-03-17 2025-03-17 2 2 588 604 10.35508/pelana.v2i2.20798 KAJIAN YURIDIS TENTANG ZAAKWAARNEMING DAN PENERAPAN HUKUMNYA DALAM PUTUSAN NOMOR 1574K/Pdt/2011 MENURUT KUHPERDATA https://ejurnal.undana.ac.id/index.php/plj/article/view/20799 <p><em>Zaakwarneming is a voluntary agreement without any order to that effect.

This case involves AAF, an employee authorized to collect payments from customers in Rote and Sabu Districts, who misused funds amounting to IDR 135,568,090 for personal interests, including online gambling. This research uses empirical juridical methods with an empirical legal approach, analyzing legal provisions in Articles 372-376 of the Criminal Code (KUHP), Law no. 31 of 1999 concerning Eradication of Corruption Crimes, and Law no. 13 of 2013 concerning Employment. The findings show that the perpetrator fulfills the elements of embezzlement in a position of trust as regulated in Article 374 of the Criminal Code, which includes the existence of the perpetrator, the ability to be held accountable, malicious intent, and no justification. Although the perpetrator was also involved in online gambling, the judge decided to impose a sentence based on the embezzlement charge, imposing a prison sentence of 2 years and 6 months, while considering online gambling as an aggravating factor. This research concludes that law enforcement needs to be increased more firmly and proportionally to create a deterrent effect, and companies must strengthen internal supervision to prevent abuse of authority by employees.</em></p> Yosefina Sarlin Nenobais Bhisa V Wilhelmus Rosalind A Fanggi ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2025-03-17 2025-03-17 2 2 635 648 10.35508/pelana.v2i2.20818 TINJAUAN YURIDIS PERBUATAN MELAWAN HUKUM TERHADAP OBJEK SENGKETA TANAH PEKARANGAN DI DESA IKAN TUANBESI KABUPATEN MALAKA (STUDI KASUS PUTUSAN NOMOR 35/PDT.G/2023/PN ATB) https://ejurnal.undana.ac.id/index.php/plj/article/view/20829 <p><em>An unlawful act is any action that causes harm to another person, requiring the guilty perpetrator to compensate for the losses incurred.

This study delves into the efficacy of mental disorder management within Manggarai Regency, Indonesia, guided by the framework of Law No. 18 of 2014 concerning Mental Health. Utilizing an empirical juridical research approach, data was meticulously gathered through a combination of interviews, direct observations, and thorough document analysis. The findings reveal a concerning reality: the Manggarai Regency Health Office's current strategies for addressing mental disorders have proven to be largely ineffective, as evidenced by a substantial surge in reported cases. Key impediments to successful management include deficiencies in essential facilities and infrastructure, compounded by the challenge of inconsistent and insufficient funding. To rectify these shortcomings, the study strongly advocates for the Health Office to intensify its efforts across the spectrum of mental health services, encompassing promotive, preventive, curative, and rehabilitative initiatives. Furthermore, the regional government is urgently called upon to bolster its support for the Health Office, ensuring that it is adequately equipped to tackle the complex challenges posed by mental health disorders.</em></p> Paulinus Afra Saryono Yohanes Yosef Mario Monteiro ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2025-04-09 2025-04-09 2 2 667 680 10.35508/pelana.v2i2.20900 PENGATURAN PENGELOLAAN PASAR DAN FAKTOR PENGHAMBATNYA (STUDI TERHADAP PENGELOLAAN PASAR WUE KECAMATAN WOLOMEZE KABUPATEN NGADA PROVINSI NUSA TENGGARA TIMUR) https://ejurnal.undana.ac.id/index.php/plj/article/view/20974 <p><em>Market management regulations are a series of activities carried out to regulate, manage, and maximize market functions so that they run in an orderly, efficient, and profitable manner for all parties involved, such as traders, buyers, and the government.
