The crisis of Rohingya people has been accumulated both in global and national sphere. Particularly, in northern part of Indonesia (Aceh province), Rohingya people found floating under emergency situation since 2015. Fortunately, local people and local government helps them while the Indonesian government faces a legal constrains as Indonesia is not a party to the 1951 Convention and the 1967 Protocol on the Status of Refugee. So there is no legal obligation to accept what has been called 'illegal migrants' under Indonesian's immigration law. However, the issuing of Presidential Regulation (Perpres) 125/2016 has flashed out a new hope for Indonesia to play a significant role in settling Rohingya people in Indonesia. Hence this paper examines the understanding and the extent to which the effectiveness of Perpres 125/2016 in dealing with refugees in Indonesia, especially with Rohingya people in Aceh province. Using doctrinal and field study approach, this paper found that the Perpres 125/2016 has been limited in terms of meaning and scope to cover the reality of Rohingya people in Aceh province. The meaning is mostly to cover emergency, political based refugees, handing over the responsibility from central into local government under immigration setting. Therefore this paper suggests some fundamental change of this Perpres 125/2016 to include preventive measures, resettlement and repatriation based on factual reality of Rohingya crisis which is remain uncertain in temporary places in Aceh province. The multi-stakeholders coordination should be taken into account, particularly, International organisation such as UNHCR representatives in Indonesia, government and nongovernment institutions, as well as local communities.

Salah satu bentuk datang orang asing ke Indonesia yakni pengungsi. Pengungsi merupakan orang asing yang berada di wilayah Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia dikarenakan oleh ketakutan akan terjadinya persekusi dari negara asalnya dengan alasan-alasan ras, suku, agama, kebangsaan, anggota kelompok sosial tertentu, perbedaan politik serta tidak mendapatkan perlindungan dari negara asalnya. Pengungsi merupakan bentuk datangnya orang asing yang mempunyai ciri berbeda dengan perpindahan penduduk, sehingga berpengaruh terhadap mekanisme perlindungan yang diterapkan. Realitas sosial saat ini, masyarakat Aceh dihadapkan dengan kedatangan pengungsi dari luar negeri. Yayasan geutanyoe mencatat kedatangan pengungsi Rohingya ke Aceh sejak Tahun 2009-2022 sebanyak 17 kali, yaitu Tahun 2009-2021 sebanyak 15 kali dan Tahun 2022 ada dua kali, Kedatangan pengungsi tersebut sebagai bagian dari tamu yang diperlakukan secara kemanusiaan dan adat setempat. Pemulia jame merupakan suatu tradisi yang melekat bagi masyarakat Aceh tanpa membedakan suku, bangsa yang harus dilayani secara baik dan sesuai dengan syari’at Islam. Perlindungan terhadap pengungsi pada dasarnya merupakan tanggung jawab setiap negara. Masalah perlindungan kepada pengungsi menjadi masalah internasional, namun sampai saat ini Aceh belum mempunyai peraturan khusus mengenai penanganan pengungsi dari luar negeri yang masuk ke dalam wilayah Aceh. Hal ini menjadi masalah karena Aceh salah satu tujuan yang didatangi pengungsi luar negeri sehingga tentunya perlu mendorong Pemerintah Aceh untuk membuat suatu peraturan pemerintah atau Qanun khusus untuk menangani pengungsi luar negeri yang masuk kedalam wilayah Aceh

This study analyzes the legal problem regarding implementing the distinction principle related to drones as military weapons by the United States of America (USA) based on international humanitarian law. The method used in this research is normative legal research. The results show that implementing the distinction principle when the United States of America uses drones as military weapons is not correctly implemented, as international humanitarian law requires. It can be seen from the number of civilian casualties who fell during drone attacks and the destruction of civilian objects. So the USA has been violated the distinction principle of international humanitarian law, so legal liability must be pursued under the international justice system. Also, other states have to follow the principle when using to conform to international requirements, commit to solid criteria for disclosure, monitoring, and accountability, and release regular updates on drone strikes and casualties. Keywords: Distinction principle; International Humanitarian Law; Drones as military Weapon; United States of America
