The ISIS terrorist group still poses a serious threat in Indonesia, especially because it operates in a network (net-terrorism) so that the handling of this terrorist group often does not reach its roots. The research is aimed to reveal the social network strategy in resolving terrorist acts in Indonesia using a structural hole theory. The research method is a qualitative research approach with secondary data analysis from four sources: books, journal articles, previous related research, and the Law of the Republic of Indonesia. The data above is then processed with Ucinet-Draw to calculate the linkage score between members in the network and then see the movement map for each ISIS network in Indonesia: Jakarta, Poso, and Surabaya. Thus, this study proves that there is a gap in the structure of the ISIS group's communication network in Indonesia. The research results revealed that many terrorist acts in Indonesia had the same pattern, namely the strong communication network between terrorist actors. Terrorist actors carried out at least three tertius strategies, namely tertius gaudens, tertius inguens, and a combination of the two. Through the tertius strategy, the government will be able to play its most crucial role in taking preventive actions against actors in terrorist networks. Therefore, the government needed to carry out various integration strategies with various institutions to conduct deradicalization appropriately.

Based on the results of the study it can be seen that, the implementation of the adoption carried out by the Putra Bakti Orphanage in the Regency of Batang experienced various problems, which in the implementation of adoption were carried out directly without going through court decisions. The reason for the Putra Bakti Orphanage in Batang Regency to appoint children without conducting a court decision is that parents who raise their children want to establish kinship with their biological parents by adopting children because they assume that the appointment of children in a court is complex and the regulations are too complicated. convoluted and requires a lot of money, takes a long time, the orphanage does not provide special costs in the process of implementing adoption, cultural factors that emphasize the appointment of adoption without going through the court and assume that the community is together, lack of socialization and guidance given or carried out by the government and society, this raises a discrepancy with the Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 54 of 2007 concerning the Implementation of Child Appointment which explains that the adoption of the child must be carried out through the court and broken off by the judge.<br />Keywords: Problem; Appointment of Children; Orphanage</p><p>Abstrak<br />Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui problematika pelaksanaan pengangkatan anak ditinjau dari  Peraturan Pemerintah Republik Indonesia Nomor 54 Tahun 2007 tentang Pelaksanaan Pengangkatan Anak di Panti Asuhan Putra Bakti Kabupaten Batang.

Alasan Panti Asuhan Putra Bakti Kabupaten Batang melakukan pengangkatan anak tanpa melakukan penetapan pengadilan adalah orang tua yang mengangkat anak ingin menjalin kekeluargaan dengan orang tua kandung dengan cara melakukan pengangkatan anak karena mereka beranggapan bahwa pengangkatan anak yang dilakukan di pengadilan tergolong rumit serta peraturan tersebut terlalu berbelit-belit dan membutuhkan banyak biaya, membutuhkan waktu yang lama, pihak panti asuhan tidak menyediakan biaya secara khusus dalam proses pelaksanan pengangkatan anak, faktor budaya masyarakat yang mengedepankan pengangkatan anak tanpa melalui pengadilan dan beranggapan bahwa masyarakat bersifat kebersamaan, kurangnya sosialisasi serta bimbingan yang diberikan atau dilakukan oleh pemerintah dan masyarakat, hal tersebut menimbulkan tidak efektifnya Peraturan Pemerintah Republik Indonesia Nomor 54 Tahun 2007 tentang Pelaksanaan Pengangkatan Anak yang menjelaskan bahwa pengangkatan anak harus dilakukan melalui pengadilan dan di putus oleh hakim. <br />Kata Kunci: Problematika; Pengangkatan Anak; Panti Asuhan</p>

Predicting terrorist attacks by group networks is an important but difficult issue in intelligence and security informatics. Effective prediction of the behavior not only facilitates the understanding of the dynamics of organizational behaviors but also supports homeland security’s missions in prevention, preparedness, and response to terrorist acts. There are certain dynamic characteristics of terrorist groups, such as periodic features and correlations between the behavior and the network. In this paper, we propose a comprehensive framework that combines social network analysis, wavelet transform, and the pattern recognition approach to investigate the dynamics and eventually predict the attack behavior of terrorist group. Our ideas rely on social network analysis to model the terrorist group and extract relevant features for group behaviors. Next, based on wavelet transform, the group networks (features) are predicted and mutually checked from two aspects. Finally, based on the predicted network, the behavior of the group is recognized based on the correlation between the network and behavior. The Al-Qaeda data are investigated with the proposed framework to show the strength of our approaches. The results show that the proposed framework is highly accurate and is of practical value in predicting the behavior of terrorist groups.

Data were taken from the Central Bureau of Statistics of the Republic of Indonesia, Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy of the Republic of Indonesia, World Bank, and Statistics Bureau of Japan. Then, those data were analyzed by a descriptive statistics method. The result intends to formulate a strategy to seek more potential tourist growth from a Japanese market. The result shows four strategic efforts that Indonesia can take to maximize the potential for the arrival of foreign tourists from Japan. The government can consider the increased number of “silver age” and adult female workers (Joshitabi), which dominate the travelers’ segment to Indonesia, and pay attention to air connectivity and unique cultural characteristic of Japan.
