Indonesia has enough access to freshwater resources of the planet. However, uneven distribution together with mediocre water management and a lack of water infrastructures make a significant number of households in this country have inadequate access to safe water. This becomes big issues, because the provision of safe water, sanitation and hygienic conditions are essential to protect human health and save humanity during the Covid-19 pandemic. When this article was written, COVID-19 patients who were confirmed to be infected were in all Indonesian provinces, with the largest numbers of patients located in Java. The purpose of this study is to determine the efforts of the Indonesian government to fulfill its responsibilities in fulfilling clean water during a pandemic. The study collects all regulations and policies concerning clean water and an analyses them using doctrinal method. The result of the study shows that although there are enough regulations governing the use of clean water, they have not resolved the problem of clean water fulfillment. In overcoming water needs during the pandemic, the Indonesian government did not make additional efforts other than those previously planned in the Strategic Plan of the Ministry of Public Works and Housing. The disruption of the economy has an impact on state finance, causing the government to refocus budgeting. As a result, many programs related to clean water are postponed. This minimum effort by government is neglecting its responsibility in fulfilling the right to water. The government must emulate how to fulfill the needs for water during the pandemic from other countries and using this situation to fix the problem of clean water in Indonesia

Water plays a very important role in supporting human life and other living beings as goods that meet public needs. Water is one of the declared goods controlled by the state as mentioned in the constitution of the republic of Indonesia. The state control over water indicated that water management can bring justice and prosperity for all Indonesian people. However, in fact, water currently becomes a product commercialized by individuals and corporations. It raised a question on how the government responsibility to protect the people's right to clean water. This study found that in normative context, the government had been responsible in protecting the people’s right over the clean water. However, in practical context, it found that the government had not fully protected people's right over clean water. The government still interpreted the state control over water in the form of creating policies, establishing a set of regulations, conducting management, and also supervision.

This paper aims to prove that the registration of marriages is one of the requirements  of marriage, which means unregistered marriagesare illegal. The basic reasonsfor this conclusion is two-fold. First, the Prophet Muhammad had commanded public notices of marriage (walimahan, iklan). The purpose of this public notice is to secure the rights of spouses so that couples can achieve the purpose of marriage: a harmonious family. In fact, public notices are means to achieve this. Thus a contextual change is possible to changes the legal form as a mean to achieve the objectives of the marriage. Registration of marriage (marriage certificate) is a kind of contextualization of the command for the public notice of marriage. This contextualization is necessary because it is more effective and efficient to guarantee the achievement of a harmonious family as the ultimate goal of marriage. Second, Indonesian citizens must obey the rules of registration of marriage as set out and defined in the Act no. 1 of 1974 on Marriage [Marriage Act], as it is an implication of the obligation to obey the government (uli al-amr). Therefore, Indonesian citizens  who do not comply with the contents of Marriage Act is disobeying the government.  Furthermore, the Indonesian government has the right to make rules for creating welfare for the community (mashlah), being Indonesian citizens. Consequently, citizens are required to obey rules set by the Indonesian government for the whole welfare of community, and it is clear that the purpose of registration of marriage is for welfare of Indonesian citizens

Use Rights Certificate Business Place (SHPTU) is proof of ownership of the right to use business premises (shop) in a market that is owned by market traders. SHPTU have a fairly high economic value. Therefore, expected SHPTU can be used as loan collateral. SHPTU have a common element of the lease, as in article 1548 of the Civil Code. Because SHPTU not the right material, then SHPTU can not be guaranteed by using a material guarantee institutions. The research method with the added element of normative juridical empirical, with the analysis of qualitative data. From the analysis it can be concluded that SHPTU not the right material, but given SHPTU has economic value and can be transferred, it is expected that the government can immediately respond to the needs of society (the Merchants Market) to the existence of a guarantee institution which can accommodate SHPTU shop as loan collateral. Resulting from the rigidity of the legal material to deliver the right material on business premises or SHPTU recommended for use kaedah contained in Article 48-49 of the legislation Flats by issuing Certificates of Building Owners and Building (SKBG), where the issuance of the certificate is the same between Local government in this case the Department of Public Works and the Department of Housing, while still managing PD Pasar Jaya as it has been running for this. Issuing authority on the issuance of a certificate is not PD Pasar Jaya but agency in charge of publishing the SKBG. When referring to the Building Act SKBG publishing at the Department of Public Works, and when referring to the Law on Housing, the publishing SKBG by the Department of Housing. That way it is assured of legal certainty as mandated by state law, as well as the grand theory of Hans Kelsen. SKBG is way out proof of ownership of the store, which is very expensive because of the value it needs the necessary legal certainty regarding the right material.Keyword: Droit De’ Preference, UMKM, Shops

Muaro Tombang Village, Sungai Manau Village and Bukit Kauman Village are the three villages in Kuantan Mudik Sub-District that have not had access to 100% clean water. Indicators of success and sustainability of the Pamsimas Program are the quantity and quality of water sources, management policies and management strategies for the Pamsimas Program. The quantity of water in the three villages in terms of discharge and minimum reservoir capacity meet the needs of the community, the water quality in the three villages there are several parameters that do not meet the quality standards of the Minister of Health Regulation No. 416 of 1990 concerning Clean Water Quality Requirements, so it needs to be treated for water Pamsimas Program. The community's perception of the socio-economic and management policies of the Pamsimas Program Muaro Tombang Village and Sungai Manau Village is included in the agreed category, while the community's perception of the socio-economic and management policy of the Pamsimas Program in the Bukit Kauman Village is in the neutral category.

This writing analyses access to water not merely as a right but as human  rights. Since the right to water constitues human rights, then constitutionally, the state, mainly the government, is obliged to respect, fulfil and protect that right. In order that the government can perform its obligation to fulfil the right of citizens   to water, the sate should put control of water under the power of the state. Thus, there are two perspectives in fulfilling the rights of citizens to water, human rights perspective and the perspective of state control. From the perspective of human rights, the 1945 Constitution has stipulated the obligation of the state in fulfilling the human rights of citizens including the right to water as stated in Article 28I paragrahp (4). From the perspective of state control over water resources, the 1945 Constitution has also determined constitutional standard as stipulated in Article 33. This concept of state control based on Article 33 has been interpreted by the Constitutional Court in its decisions. Specifically, in the decision concerning the law on water resources, the Court returned control over water to the state. The Court  set some limitations on how to utilize water resources. Private corporations are still allowed to participate in water management with strict conditions. The enhancement of this control by the state over water is intended to guarantee the fulfilment of the right of citizens to water. As an idea, monopoly of the state over water resources might be also be considered just like monopoly of state over electricity.

This paper aims to explore and explain to what extent and in what ways the Indonesian Government has securitised the Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) fishing in Indonesia since 2009, by utilising critical discourse analysis. Using the Securitisation theory from the Copenhagen School, this paper explains the analysis of the speech act and extraordinary measures from SBY’s administration, Jokowi’s first term and second term administration. While IUU fishing has been a severe global issue, 30 percent of the cases take place in Indonesia and it becomes a serious threat for the economy and maritime resources. In 2009, Indonesia amended the fisheries law by establishing the new article about the right to burn and sink illegal foreign vessels. However, the securitisation remained ‘latent’ as it lacks the extraordinary measures and supporting speech act from the government. In 2014, during Jokowi’s first term, Indonesia had done extraordinary measures by regularly sinking the illegal foreign vessels. During Jokowi’s second term, the measures were gone, although the law still exists. Thus, it became ‘latent’ again in 2019 up until present. This paper claims that the Indonesian Government successfully securitised the issue in 2014 after the latent securitisation that happened in 2009. However, it remained ‘latent’ again in 2019 up until now.
