The Implementation of CITES to Prevent Endangered Species Extinction in Indonesia
Full text linkThe extinction of flora and fauna species can be caused by a variety of factors, one of which is the outrageous conduct of some individuals despite the carefully regulated international trade in endangered species. The international community is concerned about this issue, and their concern stems from the need to combat the extinction of endangered species. The purposes of this article are as follows: 1) to assess the efficacy of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) in preventing the extinction of endangered animals and plants; 2) to learn about Indonesia's efforts to conserve endangered species. This is a normative research with a statutory approach; it makes use of secondary data from the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) and other sources. The results indicate that the implementation of CITES in Indonesia is carried out through the establishment of various laws and regulations to conserve species and the delegation of responsibilities to a management authority and a scientific authority
The Essential Concepts For The Regulation of The Right To Public Information
Full text linkRegulation ofthe right to information isvery essential in a democratic country. This isbecause the more open the governmentis towardsthe public, the more accountable itwill be. However, theoretical and conceptual studies on the right to informationare limited. For this reason, thisstudy intends to specifically review the basic concepts that must exist in an ideal right to information regulation. This research is a normative legal research (doctrinal) with a normative-conceptual approach. Data wereobtained through a literature study and analyzed descriptively and analytically. This study concludes that the right to information is conceptually based on the government's obligation to fulfill citizens' requests to access public information without exception (maximum disclosure) as well as on the obligation to proactively submit public information regularly and without being asked (obligation to publish). Conceptually, the right to information can be classified into primary, secondary and tertiary rights based on how far these rights are directly related to access to government information. Several important variables regulating the right to information include normative aspects, institutional design, and the existence of mechanisms or procedures that can ensure that the provisions of the right to information are complied with by all parties. Aspects of restrictions and exceptions to the right to information also need to be regulated, among others, by referring to the concept ofthethree-parttest

This is a Research and Development study and is part of the 2021 SKIM for Professor Facilitation Research
The Improvement of Villager Participation in Handling Human Trafficking Crime through Community Watch
No full textOne of thestrategic ways of preventinghuman trafficking and crimesagainst themigrant workeris that the implementation measures should begin from the village and should involve all elements of society. This research aims to study Community Watch (CW) as a model of human trafficking and crime prevention atthevillage level in relation to the dispatch and placement of Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI). This research adopts a combination of methodological approaches. First, itengages with the doctrinal-legal approach to access the legal provisions, in particular, UU TPPO (Human Trafficking Law) and Law concerning Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI). Second, itengages with the sociological approach to study the human trafficking phenomenon in Madura in order to find the factsand to further identifythe problems. Datacollection was conducted through library studies, interviews, and observations. The result of this research shows that the village government has not demonstrated its contribution to the prevention of human trafficking and crimes related to the dispatch and placement of PMI.This research concludes that the development of CW isessential in solving the human trafficking issues at the village level due to its paramount position in the society to ultimately protect andprevent citizens from being victimsof human trafficking
Criminal Liability of Terrorism Financing Actors
Full text linkCarrying out terrorism requires funds; without funds, it is very difficult to carry out terrorism. Based on Law Number 9 of 2013 concerning Prevention and Eradication of Criminal Acts of Terrorism Financing, the subjects that can be held accountable for their actions are people and corporations. Cumulative and single systems of sanctions are prescribed by the law, and the types of sanctions include imprisonment, fines and revocation of certain rights. Corporations are only subject to fines and additional penalties. Attempting and assisting criminal acts of financing terrorism have the same punishment as having committed financing of terrorism. The law on prevention and eradication of financing of terrorism raises problems related to the qualification of criminal acts, the absence of specific minimum penalties, the absence of special rules or guidelines for implementing criminal sanctions formulated with the cumulative system, the problem of criminal fines, and the absence of an explanation of the terms relating to the crime of financing terrorism. It is recommended that in applying the criminal provisions of the law on financing terrorism, the principle of prudence and protection of human rights should be applied because many people who donate to religious organizations or recitation groups do not know the purpose and objectives of the donated funds
Pandemic Online Learning Experiences of Graduate Students in Education: Motivations, Hurdles, and Coping Strategies
Full text linkThis study describes the graduate students’ experiences amidst the hurdles of a covid-19 pandemic in the Philippines, their coping with the varying demands of full-time teaching in the basic education and higher education, tasks and responsibilities in the family, personal, and graduate schooling. Thirty-three education graduate students in a prestigious university in the Philippines were surveyed using online questionnaires and were interviewed via online video chat. These students attended distance online learning classes that were offered in the evenings and weekends beyond office work hours. Manual coding finalized the concepts and themes related to online teaching and learning experience, motivational factors to earn graduate degree and title, perceived academic strengths and values realized in coping with full-time teaching and graduate schooling. The difficulties encountered like attending to immediate needs and concerns,echnological problems like internet connectivity were surpassed with the support from immediate work supervisors, university professors and classmates, and immediate family members and relatives. Findings suggest the interplay of factors like personal and family, work, and the wider community connectedness that leverage the struggles and survival during a trying situation like a pandemic. Findings suggest further the applicability and consistency of graduate students’ experiences across university cultures and environments using mixed methods cross-case analysis, comparing reflective dialogue before, during, and after a global health-related ordeal that helps in understanding graduate schooling and redesigning graduate programs evaluation approaches
The Urgency of Reforming the Pattern of Criminal Prosecution by the Prosecutor’s Office in Implementing Progressive Decisions
Full text linkWith the ineffectivelegal situation in Indonesia, a critical study is needed to address the issue.Therefore,it is necessary to reformthe pattern of prosecution by the Prosecutor’sOffice. Variousaspectsof thefunctions of thepublic prosecutor have raised concerns, especially the mention of the severity of sentencein criminal charges, whichopens up opportunities for unprofessional conductby public prosecutors and judges.The reformationof the process of criminal charges isa way out of the problem as itplacesthe public prosecutor within his authority without undermining the authority of thejudge with regards tothe party that determines the severity of the sentence. This research uses a combined approach.First,it uses the comparative approach bycomparing the concept of prosecution that is practiced in Indonesia and those of someEnglish-speakingcountries. Also, it uses the conceptual approach to view the doctrines or theories related to the issues raised. The results of this research supportsthe reformationof theprosecutionprocess currently been appliedby the Prosecutor's Office as a way of implementingof progressiveideas/decisions to achieve justice
Effect of Peer Tutoring On The Mathematics Performance of Grade 5 Learners In A Public Elementary School
Full text linkThis study looked into the effect of peer tutoring technique on the mathematics performance of Grade V learners in a public central elementary school in the schools division of Eastern Samar. This study tried to find out and compare the performance of Grade 5 learners exposed to peer tutoring technique and lecture-discussion strategy. The pretest-posttest quasi experimental method of research was among two groups of heterogeneous Grade V classes, subjected to one-month experimentation. A validated district-made test consisting of forty items multiple-choice test was used as the data instrument. In analyzing the data obtained from the investigation and to test the hypothesis raised prior investigation, a t-test for independent samples was employed. Mean scores were utilized to describe learners' entry knowledge before the intervention and their academic performance after the peer tutoring technique. Standard deviations were used to describe pretest and posttest scores variability. Regarding the difference in the pretest and posttest in both the experimental and comparative group, a t-test for independent samples was employed. Further analyses have illustrated that learners have almost the same mathematics performance on mathematical operations on fractions before administration of the intervention technique. This was supported by p-value lower the level of significance set at 0.5. After utilizing two varying techniques to the two groups of learners, posttest means scores revealed that there had been a significant difference in the mean scores of learners in favor of the experimental group of learners who were taught using the intervention technique. This finding was statistically supported by a p-value greater than the level of significance. From all the analyses conducted, findings rejected the hypothesis that there is no significant difference in learning gains of learners in experimental and comparisongroups. The result of the study unveiled that learners exposed to peer tutoring technique noticeably achieved better than exposed to lecture-discussion strategy. Hence, it is suggested that mathematics teachers should regularly use peer tutoring techniques to improve learners' mathematics performance. Further studies in other competencies in mathematics and other disciplines should be conducted to validate the effectiveness of peer tutoring
Subsidiary Sources of International Law: Is It Only as Law Determining?
Full text linkThe sources of international law are divided into two categories which are the primary sources and subsidiary sources. Primary sources are considered as the law-making while subsidiary sources considered only as law determining. This paper discusses how far the role of subsidiary sources in international law. This research used literature research which the writer used journals, cases and documents related to the research. This research finds out that it is true that subsidiary sources act as law-determining but both judicial decisions and writing of the publicists assist the creation of international customary law. Specific for judicial decisions in some cases also ca be considered as law-making
Dispute Resolution Model of Construction Work Contract: A Case Study In Indonesia
Full text linkThe complexity of the construction industry causes the potential for construction disputes to be very large and cannot be avoided. There have been many methods of resolving construction contract disputes, but the resolutions still cause losses to the conflicting parties, both financially and non-financially. Thus, it is necessary to explain the construction work contract dispute resolution model in Indonesia that reflects the win-win solutionprinciple, and propose an ideal dispute resolution model of construction work contract. Considering that a construction work contract dispute arises as a result of an escalation of disagreements, a dispute resolution should be done quickly, without harming each other. Based on the common goals of the parties to the contract, this study is adequate to use the contract normative legal method. This study yields two conclusions. First, the dispute resolution model of construction work contracts still reflects the win-win solutionprinciple (which consists of mediation, conciliation, and dispute council) in a narrow sense. The resolution only produces suggestions and does not have binding force and is not final, even though the construction sector which basically has a high business risk really needs a quick resolution and can be complied with by all parties in the construction work contract. Second, the ideal dispute resolution model of construction work contract in Indonesia is sufficient to use arbitration in a broad sense, that is, arbitration that accommodates mediation and conciliation, but the results are still final and binding. It is recommended to remove the word "court" in the explanation of Article 47 paragraph (1) letter (h) of the Construction Services Law, as well as adopt a compromise on the revocability doctrine and its exceptions and ratify the New York Convention in 2015 in the 1999 Arbitration Act
