Welcoming the simultaneous regional head election in 2020, it is expected to be an entry point in building a higher quality democracy in Indonesia. Initially, this year's election should be held on September 23. However, this plan must be constrained when the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak occurs and spread wildly all over the world including Indonesia, and was officially declared a pandemic by World Health Organization (WHO). When the number of positive cases and deaths continues to increase, the government decided to continue holding the regional election in the midst of the pandemic. Such policy created controversy and faced several challenges, especially regarding the government's inconsistency in fulfilling the rights of its people in the time of the pandemic. This article aims to explain and analyze the contradiction in the government policies from the antinomy of law and human rights perspective. This legal research is doctrinal research conducted using a conceptual, statutory, and case approach. The data will be described in a descriptive-prescriptive manner through qualitative analysis. The results of the analysis show that there are some contradictions between policies regarding physical distancing (both in the Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) and Health Protocol regulations) and the policy for holding Regional Head Elections during the pandemic. In essence, this contradiction is the antinomy between the aspects of public health and political rights. Antinomies occur when the government seeks to fulfill and guarantee political rights as well as public rights to health at the same time during a pandemic, which actually leads to mutual negation between these rights.

Terlepas dari beragam kontroversinya, kehadiran Omnibus Law Cipta Kerja setidaknya telah mencabut dua peraturan dan mengubah sedikitnya 80 (delapan puluh) undang-undang yang lain. Salah satu yang ikut terdampak adalah Undang-Undang Nomor 40 Tahun 2007 Tentang Perseroan Terbatas (UU PT). Penelitian ini bermaksud untuk mengkaji seperti apa konsep dan permasalahan yang ada pada omnibus law Cipta Kerja, serta implikasinya terhadap pengaturan dan konsep Dasar Perseroan Terbatas. Studi ini merupakan penelitian normatif (doctrinal) terhadap data sekunder yang diperoleh dari studi pustaka (library research), yang terdiri dari bahan hukum primer dan sekunder. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Omnibus law merupakan metode legislasi dengan cara menyatukan beragam jenis undang-undang ke dalam satu undang-undang khusus. Hal ini berpotensi meniadakan kepentingan yang beragam dari masing-masing undang-undang atas nama satu kepentingan saja. Di samping itu, praktik penyusunannya di Indonesia tidak memiliki dasar yuridis serta melanggar asas keterbukaan dan partisipasi. Dari segi implikasinya terhadap UU PT, sejumlah ketentuan dalam Omnibus law Cipta Kerja telah memperluas makna Perseroan terbatas dengan menghadirkan model Perseroan Perorangan yang melahirkan sejumlah kontradiksi dalam konsep Dasar Perseroan Terbatas, disamping juga menghapus batas modal minimum Perseroan yang dikhawatirkan akan menyebabkan kerentanan bagi kelangsungan usaha.

This article aims to explain the patterns of corruption in the environmental sector (environmental corruption) and the possibility for Independent agencies to address them. Also, to initiate a better policy and supervision against environmental corruption in Indonesia. The research was carried out based on the normative legal method (library research) towards secondary data using a statutory, conceptual, and comparative approach. The results show that the main pattern of environmental corruption involves corrupt actors in bureaucratic institutions that cause weak environmental policies and supervision. The benefit of Independent Agencies with structural and personnel independence is expected to fill the gap in the old bureaucratic management and reduce corruption. The regulatory power of such agencies can also set more stringent environmental policy and supervision. Thus, there needs to be institutional reform in the environmental authorities for future policies by establishing an independent agency. The new agency must also have the power to formulate and enact policies in environmental management and give them authority to investigate and impose sanctions. We also recommend compiling a national strategic program in the form of work synergy between independent agencies in the environmental and anti-corruption sector.
