Since 1997 until now, forest and land fires (Karhutla) in Indonesia occur almost every year. The 2015 Karhutla incident is believed to have burned 2.61 million hectares of forest and land. In 2016, even though Indonesia was hit by La Nina, forest and land fires continued to burn forest and land area of 14,604.84 hectares. Forest and land fires have a detrimental impact on the environment, social and economy. Even the problem of fires in Indonesia has caused smoke problems for neighboring countries, especially in the Southeast Asia region. The government has tried to deal with the forest and land fires both in the form of regulations and programs, but the forest fires still occur. Several studies have shown problems in handling forest and land fires, including difficulties. The government itself is aware that forest and land fire is a multidimensional problem that requires cross-sectoral coordination to deal with it. Keywords: forest fires, Indonesia, policy

The unequal distribution of the population in Indonesia is caused by the concentration of the population of Java, which led the government to create a population movement program called transmigration. The types of transmigration carried out by the Indonesian government are general transmigration and self-employment transmigration. West Borneo, which is the destination for transmigration, is Rasau Jaya District, Kubu Raya Regency. Of the six villages in the Rasau Jaya sub-district, there are only four villages that are the placement areas for transmigrants, namely Rasau Jaya Satu Village, Rasau Jaya Dua Village, Rasau Jaya Tiga Village and Bintang Mas Village. Rasau Jaya Tiga Village in 1975-1977 became the most transmigration destination area because it had the largest land area among other villages. The method used is descriptive with a qualitative approach and the object under study is the transmigrant who came from West Java.

The widespread forest fires in South Sumatra were disastrous for the community around the forest area. However, this condition is beneficial to sonor underage activities. The government policy number 6 of 2016 that prohibit forests and/or land limits people's access to exploit the potential of forests as a source of income and food sources. The community’s adaptation to new condition/regulation is not easy because of the community’s dependent to forest. The purpose of this study is to look at forest as resources and the community's adaptive capacity. This study uses qualitative methods supported by quantitative data. The study indicated that there is a decrease of forest as the main source of livelihood. Sonor rice can no longer be produced, other forest plants have been greatly reduced because the forest has changed into a plantation. Rubber production is reduced due to heat from fires. The adaptive capacity of the community is classified as lacking because although there have been repeated fires there has been no change or new way that the community has done to overcome the lack of food resources. Linkages with outside parties have little impact on the growth of new economic opportunities. The lack of effective leadership role is one of the main causes. The resiliency of the Perigi community is only in Stability.

Although the government of Indonesia and Timor Leste have conducted a number of policy decisions and actions to manage border conflict between Indonesia and Oecusse District, Timor Leste, the conflict remains unresolved and has the potential to continue. This study examines the influence of government policy on the management of border conflict between the two countries. Data obtained from questionnaires were analysed statistically descriptive, and through Pearson correlation and simple linear regression. The findings show that Indonesian government policy decisions and actions are slightly slow and less equal in acting on managing the border conflict, and less clear in implementing border line regulation between the two countries, but has high ability to prevent the conflict escalation. Customary figures who live in the border conflict region highly agree with and suggest to the government of both sides the use of customary law/oath as policy alternative in managing the conflict but the suggestion remains less responded well. This study also reveals that Indonesian government policy positively and moderately correlates, however, its influence on management of the border conflict is 33.5%. The government of Indonesia needs to improve its policy decisions and actions to manage the border conflict so that can prevent well the potential of the conflict continuation.

Batik was first listed as an Intangible Cultural Humanity Heritage by UNESCO on October 2, 2009. As the home country for batik, Indonesia has committed to preserve and increase its popularity in the global market. These efforts are carried out through various strategies and policies to encourage the internationalization of batik, especially during the 2015-2019 period where there has been a significant decline in batik exports. This study aims to describe the strategy and government policy in encouraging the internationalization of batik in the global market. Using the Hybrid model proposed by Lei Li & Li/Tevfik Dalgic as one of the models of internationalization carried out by Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs). This model explains the stages of internationalization which include Planning, Execution, and Antecedent Phase. Based on this research, between 2015-2019, the Indonesian government has implemented various strategies and policies domestically and internationally to support batik SMEs, expand its non-traditional markets, and hold provisions on importing TPT batik and batik motifs to protect the industry. Yet, these strategies and policies were not very successfully implemented. The government efforts were still decentralized, so the strategic steps taken by various institutions and related stakeholders were not in sync. In addition, the shift in the antecedent phase to involve SMEs in every implementation of the internationalization program was also minimal.

The government through the law makes a policy to aggressively seek rehabilitation for the drug users. This is done in the context of tackling the abuse of narcotics in Indonesia. Thus, it is necessary to study the policy objectives based on the perspective of maqashid sharia by conducting qualitative research using secondary data. From the results of the research, the Indonesian Government has implemented rehabilitation sanctions for the narcotics user because the users are victims of other people's crimes, namely illegal narcotics dealers. If a narcotics user is given a sanction of imprisonment / imprisonment, it will have a worse impact and cannot eliminate his dependence on narcotics. Seen from the perspective of maqashid sharia, this government policy does not conflict with the objectives contained in the maqashid sharia concept, as the goal of rehabilitation which requires the users to be aware of their mistakes, so that they will become better humans both towards their God and those around him.

<p>Indonesia has become independent country since 1945, however this country still facing many internal conflicts. The power of Soeharto (the second Indonesian President) regime that lasted for 32 years, spread fears to many people which make them silenced. After the reformation in 1998 that led to the collapsed of that regime, Indonesia experienced a period of “freedom from fear”. Since then there are many new mass organizations emerged in Indonesia. Some of these mass organizations are arrogance and causes fear to Indonesian people. Therefore, in the current era of president Jokowi leadership, the government acts firmly on those mass organizations by issuing Government Regulation No.2 which was signed on July 10, 2017. Moreover, this new regulation has raised pros and contras in society. One group of people who care about this is the Women Indonesian Care Group which consists of women from various segments on a racial, religious, educational, work and age basis. The researcher is interested to raise this matter as a research because it is a new thing in Indonesia where group consisting mostly of mothers perform an action in the form of a demonstration conducted in front of Parliament Building/House of Representative on Friday, July 27, 2017. It turns out that those mothers who have been upset and disturbed by the actions done by certain mass organizations. Thus they feel the need to do the demonstration.
