AbstractThis paper explores the value of international law in combating transnational organized crime in the Asia-Pacific, with particular reference to the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime. It begins by highlighting the definitions of organized crime under national and international law. It then analyzes the extent to which states in the Asia-Pacific have implemented the Convention, focusing on harmonization of national criminal laws and procedures, mutual recognition of law enforcement decisions and measures, as well as provision of technical assistance. The paper also touches upon the protection of the human rights of victims and perpetrators of organized crime. The main conclusion reached is that, although the implementation of international instruments pertinent to transnational organized crime has not been an easy task in the Asia-Pacific, they are slowly but surely making a difference on the ground. Therefore, their value should not be dismissed completely.

The establishment of an extradition treaty between the Government of the Republic of Indonesia and other countries is a strategic effort in order to increase cooperation in the field of law enforcement and the implementation of justice. With the formation of the extradition treaty, the perpetrators of crimes that are being sought and fleeing the country cannot escape easily from lawsuits. Although the extradition issue is basically seen as part of international law, the discussion cannot be emphasized only in terms of international law. Many things are not further regulated in extradition agreements, especially if the problem is a domestic problem of each country. This article discusses Law Enforcement Against Transnational Criminals through Extradition Agreements. This research is normative juridical and prescriptive. The results of the study conclude that Law Enforcement Against Transnational Crime Actors under the provisions of the United Nations Convention Against Transnational Organized Crime (UNTOC) is not fully implemented in the Indonesian legal system. Based on data until the 2017 period, it can be concluded that the implementation of extradition in Indonesia based on the provisions of UNTOC is still not fully implemented.
