Indonesia currently has Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Criminal Justice System for Children (UU-SPPA) to provide protection for children who need special protection such as child offenders, victims and witnesses. In fact, the implementation of the UU-SPPA actually only focuses on children as perpetrators. This not only shows that justice for children is still not upright especially for children who are victims of sexual violence. This is evident from the findings of a study conducted in 2019 entitled "The Effectiveness of the Convention on the Rights of the Child Victims of Sexual Violence". This study found that although Indonesia already has 2 government regulations governing the fulfillment of victims of sexual violence in the form of compensation and or restitution, none of the decisions of the Medan District Court and Lubuk Pakam contain the rights of victims. The decisions of the Medan District Court and Lubuk Pakam throughout 2018 were oriented towards providing penalties for the perpetrators. The two Government Regulations which are guidelines for implementing the Law are (a) Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 7 of 2018 concerning Provision of Compensation, Restitution and Assistance to Witnesses and Victims; and (b) Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 43 Year 2017 Concerning Implementation of Restitution for Children Who Are Victims of Criminal Acts. These two Government Regulations are the basic ingredients for the implementation of the 2019 Mandatory Servant Lecturer service dedication. This situation is the basis of community service in two districts namely Medan Baru and Medan Sunggal. Law Enforcement Officials (APH) in this case the police and the community not only obtain new information about victims' rights but also increase their awareness to guarantee the rights of children victims of sexual violence are requested in legal proceedings for perpetrators. Furthermore, the Police and the community hope that the information on these two Government Regulations can be continued both by the Regional Government Organization (OPD) and other institutions such as the Civil Society Organization (CSO) in Medan.

The District Court and Syari’ah Court (Mahkamah Syar’iyah) jurisdictions to deal with child sexual abuse cases have still overlapped. This issue generates legal uncertainty in the enforcement of Jinayat Law in Aceh. This study aims to analyze the resolution patterns over child sexual abuse cases in Aceh, the resolution patterns over child sexual abuse cases at District Courts, and the efforts to solve dualism issues of the courts in trying child sexual abuse cases in Aceh. This study employed a juridical-empirical method that attempts to analyze behaviors of law enforcement officials in handling sexual abuse cases in Aceh using case and statute approaches based on the rules and principles of law studies. The legal materials utilized in this study were Law, Qanun, Government Regulation, and Syari’ah Court and District Court Decisions. Data were analyzed qualitatively. The findings reveal that both District Courts and Syari’ah Courts still settle sexual abuse cases. The results also point out that the resolution patterns in adjudicating sexual abuse cases at District Courts are categorized into adult offenders and young offenders. The provisions stipulated in the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP) are applied for adult offenders, while the Juvenile Criminal Justice System Law is regulated for young offenders. The efforts to overcome dualism are generating new policies by the Supreme Court to delegate the authority to solve sexual abuse cases and other jinayat cases from District Courts to Syari’ah Courts, and the issuance of Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Aceh Syari’ah Courts, Aceh Regional Police, Aceh High Prosecutor’s Office, and Aceh High Court governing the authorization limits over the settlement of jinayat cases.

Children's rights are marked by the guarantee of protection and fulfillment of the Rights of the Child in the 1945 Constitution of the State of the Republic of Indonesia and several provisions of laws and regulations both national and international. This guarantee is upheld through the ratification of the International Convention on the Rights of the Child, namely the ratification of the Convention on the Rights of the Child through Presidential Decree No. 36/1990 on the Ratification of Convention On The Rights Of The Child. In the case that the authors found that there was an adoption of a child who could not be made due to Government Regulation No. 54 of 2007 article 3, paragraph 2 stating that in the case of the origin of the child is unknown, the child's religion is in accordance with the religion of the majority of the local population. With this case, according to the author means there has been discrimination against prospective parents who have good intentions to appoint children because of the constraints of religious differences between parents and prospective children. Whereas in the course of the child is also possible to choose a different religion with the parents' religion. Directly this Government Regulation is contrary to the principle of Non-Discrimination adopted by the Convention on the Rights of the Child

The criminal act against children is a gross violation of human rights. The criminal act committed by the offenderis intolerable because it can affect their survival as well as growth and development. Therefore, the victim deserves legal protection. Restitution is one of forms of protection and fulfillment of the rights of the child to compensate any damages. So far, child victim of criminal act suffers not only material loss (countable) but also immaterial loss (uncountable) such as shame, loss of self-esteem, depression and/or traumatic anxiety.It is the fact that so far the rights of child victims to restitution are very often violated. Therefore, the child victim and his or her family feel that they do not given justice.

The method used in this research is normative legal research, namely research that refers to legal norms and principles contained in statutory regulations and government regulations. The result of the research is that Law Number 17 of 2008 concerning Shipping contains articles that regulate ports which require further regulation in the form of a Government Regulation. The law establishes a system of port authority that will carry out a regulatory role, end state-owned monopoly control over port services, and require the development of national and regional port master plans. Legal protection in implementing regional autonomy is in accordance with the enactment of Law Number 23 of 2014 concerning Regional Government, legal protection for the implementation of various government affairs in the framework of serving the community and managing natural resources. The problems that have arisen in the management of ports in the regions so far are conflicts of use and power. It is hoped that the efforts to deal with these problems can be carried out reactively, meaning that local governments can carry out conflict resolution, mediation or deliberation in dealing with these problems.

In Article 28 B paragraph (2) of the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, it is stated that the State guarantees the rights of children to survival, to grow and develop and to protect them from violence and discrimination. Along with the rapid flow of globalization and the negative impact of the development of information technology and telecommunications, sexual violence against children is increasing. The Indonesian Child Protection Commission (KPAI), stated that in 2015 there were 218 cases, in 2016 there were 120 cases, and in 2017 there were 116 cases. To address the phenomenon of sexual violence against children, the President of Indonesia issued a Government Regulation in Lieu of Law No. 17 of 2016, which was subsequently upgraded to Law namely Law No. 17 of 2016 concerning Stipulation of Government Regulation in lieu of Law No. 1 of 2016 concerning the second Amendment to Law No. 23 of 2002 concerning Child Protection becomes Law. The contents of criminal offenses against perpetrators of criminal acts of sexual violence against children can be subject to additional criminal sanctions in the form of announcing the identity of the perpetrators, and can be subjected to acts of chemical castration accompanied by rehabilitation and installation of electronic detectors. The basic consideration for the issuance of this Perppu is to minimize sexual crimes, give a deterrent effect to perpetrators of sexual crimes and prevent any intention for anyone to commit sexual crimes. However, the issuance of this Perppu invites pros and cons of how to implement it, considering that until now there has been no further Government Regulation regulating, especially the Indonesian Medical Association has refused to do chemical castration. This paper wants to explore the existence of the Perppu seen from the study of criminal law politics.
