Loss of Guarantee The Protection of Traditional Culture

Once again, the Indonesian society are faced with a commotion about the claims of traditional culture by the Malaysian society. In this cases that have arisen are related to Tarian Tor-Tor dan Gondang Sambilan (Sembilan Gendang) originating from the Mandailing society of North Sumatra. The interesting thing about this incident is that many parties feel “angry” on what has been done by the Malaysia. From the ordinary people to politicians. Because of this commotion, one question has really raised a question, is there a commitment by the State to guarantee the protection of traditional culture?

 

Constitutional Guarantee in Protecting Traditional Culture

According to the Preamble to the 1945 Constitution, it is clear that one of the objectives of the establishment of the State of Indonesia is within the framework of protecting the entire Indonesian nation and all of its bloodshed. It means that the State is obliged to be able to provide protection for both human and non-human resources. In the context of non-human resources, the State should be able to protect both natural and non-natural resources, there are no exception in terms of protecting traditional culture.

In accordance with this issue, based on the constitution bodies there are several provisions that provide direction as well as firm guarantees for the protection of traditional culture. The basic of constitutional in the context of protecting traditional culture is stated in Article 18B paragraph (2) of the second amendment to the 1945 Constitution which stated that “The state recognizes and respects customary law community units and their traditional rights as long as they are still alive and in accordance with community development and the principle of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia as regulated in the Law.” and Article 28I paragraph (3) of the second amendment to the 1945 Constitution which reads as follows: Cultural identity and rights of traditional communities are respected in line with the development of times and civilizations”. In addition to the above provisions, Article 32 paragraph (1) and paragraph (2) of the fourth amendment to the 1945 Constitution provide a basis for further strengthening the direction and guarantees of the constitution on the importance of protecting traditional culture in Indonesia.

 

 

Loss of Traditional Cultural Protection Guarantee

Based on the currently issue which is developing regarding Malaysia’s efforts with the recording of Tarian Tor-Tor dan Gondang Sambilan (Sembilan Gendang) as cultural heritage, which is really concerning. This concern arises because this case is not the first case but has become a case for the umpteenth time related to traditional culture. The question is, in this context can the State be considered to have lost its commitment to guarantee the protection of traditional culture?

Talking about the state’s commitment to guarantee the protection of traditional culture, it is actually not enough to just express it in the form of normative formulations in the constitution, but there are no more tangible actions. In reality, the State has lost its commitment to guarantee the protection of traditional culture. There are two parameters that the commitment of the State has actually been lost in providing guarantees for the protection of traditional culture. The two parameters are;

First, in the context of case resolution, it appears that the State is unable to complete the settlement of cases of claims of traditional culture by foreign parties completely and clearly. From the Batik case to Tarian Tor-Tor, the state can only remain silent without a clear attitude to resolve the case. Even if there is a response, this does not solve the case completely. Recognition by UNESCO of several traditional cultures has not resolved the problem of protecting traditional cultures, as evidenced by the case for other types of traditional cultures. On the other hand, efforts to encourage all traditional cultures to be recognized by UNESCO may not necessarily be carried out due to strict requirements and may be inefficient.

 Second, in the context of developing a legal system, the State is unable to develop legislation that leads to the development of a traditional cultural protection system. In fact, if you look at the provisions of Article 18B paragraph (2) of the Second Amendment to the 1945 Constitution, the constitution explicitly requires that in the framework of respecting traditional rights which also includes the protection of traditional culture, a statutory provision should be made that can optimize the intent of Article 18B paragraph (2). the 18B. In fact, until now the expected legislation has not appeared. In the past, the Directorate General of Intellectual Property Rights at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights had indeed drafted a Bill on the Protection and Utilization of Traditional Culture, but the bill itself so far has not shown a clear end to its origins. Therefore, this can be interpreted that it is true that the State has lost its commitment to guarantee the protection of traditional culture.

COLLECTIVE MOVEMENT OF IPR AWARENESS

On Friday, April 26 2013, the international community celeberate the 13th intellectual property rights day. In this context, this warning is often used as a momentum by the international community and countries in the world to further strengthen the importance of IPR in encouraging the progress of human civilization. Currently, the theme carried by WIPO in commemoration of the 13th World Intellectual Property Rights Day is “Innovation for the Next Generation”, while the theme raised by the Directorate General of Intellectual Property Rights is “Continuous Innovation for National Glory”.

For the Indonesia, IPR should become a collective awareness in order to improve the welfare of the people. To achieve this, the IPR movement really must be able to involve all components of the nation’s children. The IPR movement should not only be partial, sporadic, and carried out by a handful of groups without a clear direction, but should be a comprehensive, systemic movement, and involve the widest participation of the community by focusing on a goal,which is building Indonesian society welfare through IPR.

Notes on Awareness of IPR

The Indonesian nation has always been perceived as a society that has not optimally possessed IPR awareness. This perception is actually more due to several reasons. There are at least two reasons that strengthen this, consist of; First, there are still rampant IPR violations committed by the Indonesian society. For example, in the case of music and song violations, according to Member of the Board of Management of the Indonesian Recording Industry Association, Jusak Irwan Sutiono, there are illegal sales of Indonesian song downloads amounting to more than 6 million songs. For example, 1 song costs Rp. 3,000, so the potential loss for Indonesia aka the music industry per day is Rp. 18 billion/day.; Second, the low number of IPR applications submitted by the Indonesian people, especially in terms of filing patent applications. According to data from the Directorate General of Intellectual Property Rights, overseas PCT patents amounted to 4839, Domestic PCT patents amounted to 8 in 2011.

In other side of the perception that the awareness of IPR in Indonesia is not optimal, this is also inseparable from the weakness of the IPR management system both at the center and in the regions. Indications of the weakness of the IPR management system can be seen when IPR is currently considered a matter for the Ministry of Law and Human Rights of the Republic of Indonesia if it is in the Central Government, while IPR becomes a matter for the Department of Industry and Trade if it is in the Regional Government.

In conclusion, it is possible that the issue of IPR awareness in Indonesia is actually a serious matter. It happened because of the low understanding of IPR of the Indonesian society, is not only experienced by people who incidentally are IPR actors, such as creators, designers, inventors and so on, but also experienced by government officials both at the Central and Regional levels, which incidentally is the government apparatus. It is hoped that it can build awareness of IPR in the Indonesian people even better.

Collective Movement of IPR Awareness

Based on the reality of IPR awareness among Indonesian society, it is clear that the Indonesian society in terms of building IPR awareness are still being carried out partially, sporadically, not focused and the parties involved are still very few. Partial nature of IPR awareness. As a result, the IPR conscious movement has only become a routine and only belongs to a handful of certain community groups. In addition, the development of the IPR system both at the center and in the regions is developing slowly and tends not to be responsive to the needs of the community itself.

Realizing this issue, the momentum of the 13th World Intellectual Property Rights Day on 26 April 2013 should be used by the Indonesian society as a starting point for moving awareness of collective intellectual property rights. By building a collective IPR conscious movement, of course, IPR that has been developed and implemented in Indonesia can ultimately have an impact on efforts to realize the welfare of the Indonesian people themselves. This, of course, is also in line with the purpose of IPR as stated in Article 7 of the TRIPS Agreement that IPR is basically developed and applied to improve the welfare of the community.

THE GRADE OF PRODUCT COMPETITIVENESS THROUGH THE GEOGRAPHIC INDICATION

Do you still remember the case of the Sulotco Kalosi Toraja Coffee Brand with a picture of a Toraja house registered and owned by IFES Inc. Corporation California with Registration Number 74547000. This is very extraordinary learning. One of them, it turns out that many foreign parties are currently increasing the competitiveness of their products through mentoring on behalf of the typical and quality products of the Indonesian nation. From this case, it is very important that the names of these distinctive and quality products can be protected through the Geographical Indication (GI) system in order to increase product competitiveness.

Geographical Indications: Regional Marks for /Special Products

Perhaps all this time we have known that in Indonesia there are several products that have uniqueness and quality and this is at the same time a superior product. Some of these products such as Salak Pondoh Sleman, Kopi Kitamani Bali, Lada Putih Muntok, Tembakau Mole Sumedang and many others. These products are basically products that have the potential to be registered with their GI.

GI is a sign that is used for goods that have a certain geographical origin and also have the quality or reputation caused by the place of origin. In general, GI consists of the name of the place of origin of the goods. The purpose of GI registration is so that the product can be legally protected. Protection against GI is collective, which is protection given to a product produced by a product produced by a certain area (Sugiono Moeljopawiro and Surip Mawardi, 2010).

GI was appeared and born in several centuries ago at Europe. GI itself includes the name of the place of origin of the goods. GI is a sign used on goods that have a specific regional origin and have the quality and reputation caused by the place of origin (Dora de Teresa, 2003). In the world, there are many products with quality and reputation due to the demand for GI. It is like; champagne wine (France), Parmigiano cheese (Italy), brandy pisco (Peru)—these products have been registered as GI in Indonesia (Riyaldi, 2012).

In the manner of paying attention to the definition of GI, it is clear that GI is a sign used for products that have distinctive and quality, where the sign refers to the regional name of the product.

Implications of GI Certification on Product Competitiveness Improvement

GI was appeared in the World Trade Organization (WTO) as part of the Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPs), particularly in Article 22 paragraph (1) of the TRIPs Agreement. GI is usually used to mark products that have specificity and quality caused by geographical factors, both natural and/or human factors. To obtain the GI it must be register.

GI registration itself is a legal mechanism that is carried out by means of labeling products to the Directorate General of Intellectual Property Rights of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights where to obtain the label there must be a product standard both in terms of institutional and governance as well as the quality and characteristics of the product as outlined in the GI registration. requirements book. The requirements book is a requirement for GI registration, which has a function if the GI label for a typical product is approved by the Director General of Intellectual Property Rights, then the typical product must be produced by the product community by referring to the requirements book.

In the manner of taking into the things above, GI basically can be equated with efforts to standardize the typical products of a region. This understanding can be known because to obtain the certificate of GI, a typical product community must first have product quality standards that can explain the uniqueness of the product.

Furthermore, by registering GI for distinctive and quality products, the following benefits will be obtained: First, on a macro basis it is hoped that it will improve the welfare of the community of distinctive and quality products and other communities around the community of typical and quality products; Second, legally the unique and quality products that exist in each region can be protected in legally; and Third, in terms of quality and grade, the competitiveness of distinctive and high-quality products in their respective regions will be able to be further improved.

Anti Plagiarism Social Movement

The news about the widespread practice of plagiarism of scientific work in universities with a quantity up to 100 lecturers with the purpose to carry out promotions from the lector, head lector to professor level is something that is both concerning and heart breaking in the context of the future of higher education in Indonesia. However a university which incidentally is an institution that prints the nation’s next generation and is expected to produce true intellectuals both in terms of knowledge and integrity that has been tainted by acts of plagiarism committed by lecturers as educators in universities.

Therefore, it is common when there is an act of plagiarism in such a way, it should begin to reflect on how this nation responds to the rampant acts of plagiarism.

Plagiarism and Dishonesty

Plagiarism is a term that is very well known among scientists and intellectuals. The term plagiarism actually refers to an act in the context of making scientific work that does not pay attention to the rules and ethics of writing scientific papers. For example, citing people’s opinions without mentioning the source. Meanwhile, people who commit acts of plagiarism are often called plagiarists.

There is a relationship between plagiarism and the morality of this nation. The practice of plagiarism among scientists and intellectuals is basically an act that is considered unethical/immoral. The concrete form of this immoral act is represented in terms of the dishonesty of scientists or intellectuals for the knowledge they develop.

If we pay attention to the form of dishonesty, it is a moral basis that is now very rare to find in Indonesia. It seems that in this country it is very difficult to find honest people than to find smart people. Therefore, it becomes a serious problem when this act of plagiarism continues to escalate in Indonesia. However, it becomes serious problem because it is believed that the widespread dishonesty of educators/lecturers in making scientific works will have a further impact on other dishonesty in the development of education in Indonesia. As a result, it is not surprising that the quality of the integrity of education is currently very low.

So, it is not surprising that in the practice of everyday life, almost most of the Indonesian people, along with the administration of the government, live their lives full of pretense if it is not said that they live with full of dishonesty. The closest example today, can be seen in the case of the arrest of the chairman of the Constitutional Court, where he was a doctor who was later caught red-handed by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). In fact, previously he seemed fierce with the symptoms of corruption in Indonesia. This is a fact that we cannot ignore.

Anti Plagiarism Social Movement

Seeing the implications of plagiarism for the future of this very dangerous nation, the government and other related institutions, such as educational institutions should seriously take strategic steps to eliminate the act of plagiarism itself. At least the act of plagiarism can be suppressed in such a way.

One thing that needs to be done in this context is to make the anti-plagiarism movement as social movement. The anti-plagiarism social movement is an extension of the legal movement and is the embodiment of strategic steps in suppressing plagiarism itself. The intended social movement is to invite all components of this nation to agree to say no to all forms of plagiarism.

It is expected that with this kind of social movement, social sanctions will be able to intensify legal sanctions. However, these two sanctions can be used as effective means going forward to preventing plagiarism which has become the source of this nation’s moral depravity. In addition, with the existence of these two kinds of sanctions, it is expected that Indonesia can truly realize the commitment of the founding fathers of this nation, specifically the intellectual life of the nation and the welfare of the Indonesian people.

Carrying the Theme of Surviving, Cleaning up, and Growing, the Implementation of the Coordination Meeting of FH UII Implements Strict Health Protocols

The Faculty of Law of the Universitas Islam Indonesia (UII) held a 2020 Coordination Meeting to Concepting Working Plan (Rakorja) on Sunday (27-09-2020). The UII FH Coordination Meeting 2020 this time carries the theme theme “Bertahan; Berbenah; Tumbuh; dalam Rangka Mencetak Lulusan FH Berintegritas dan Profesional (Defending; Clean up; Grow; in Order to Produce Faculty of Law’s Graduate with Integrity and Professional)”. Implementation of this Rakorja is different from previous years because it is carried out online. This is a reminder of the high number of cases of Covid-19 transmission in Indonesia. The implementation of this Rakorja was carried out in a hybrid manner from the Main Meeting Room, 3rd Floor of FH UII and was attended by around 25 people. Although many participants realized, the implementation of the Faculty of Law’s Rakorja 2020  was carried out in accordance with health protocols.

In his speech, the Dean of Faculty of Law UII, Assoc Professor Dr. Abdul Jamil, SH., MH., said that the implementation of this Rakorja had complied with the existing health protocols. Abdul Jamil, who is also the Chairperson of the UII Siaga Covid 19 Team, said that all coordination meetings paid attention to existing health protocols. “We have opened the windows, we have also opened the doors so that the air can circulate properly”, said Abdul Jamil.

The Rakorja was opened by the Rector of UII, Prof. Fathul Wahid, ST, M, Sc., Ph.D ,. In his remarks, Fathul Wahid praised the willingness of Faculty of Law UII lecturers to organize activities amidst the existing busy schedule. “This is proof that you are good people, because they volunteered for the meeting on Sunday,” said Fathul Wahid, responded with laughter from the participants.

According to Fathul Wahid, the pandemic condition is the main challenge for universities in Indonesia, including UII. “This pandemic condition has a tremendous impact. This condition will greatly affect our future policy direction”, he said. According to Fathul Wahid, many private universities could barely survive this pandemic. “Alhamdulillah, UII after doing the ‘belt tightening” managed to survive until it has a salary cash reserve of up to 12 months, “added Fathul Wahid optimistically.

Fathul Wahid conveyed that this pandemic condition should not be considered merely as an obstacle, but must also be seen as a momentum. This is the meaning of the UII’s Rakorja theme. “We have to quickly adapt,” said Fathul Wahid. The online learning system is one form of momentum referred to by Fathul Wahid. According to him, during the pandemic, UII has been ‘forced’ to develop a good online learning system. It is projected that this system will not continue to end after the pandemic is over, but will continue to be developed. The main objective is to increase the usefulness of UII’s existence in Indonesia. “I imagine if we can make online meetings permanent. It can also be used as a mixture of online and offline. ”, Said Fathul Wahid.

Pra Rakorja Faculty of Law Universitas Islam Indonesia, Dean: In 2021 We Will Have Five Professors

The Faculty of Law of the Universitas Islam Indonesia (UII) held the Coordination Meeting to Gather Inputs for Civitas academics (Pra Rakorja) of Faculty of Law UII, on Monday (21-09-2020). This Pra-Rakorja organizing is different from previous years because it is carried out online. This is due to the fact that there are still high cases of Covid-19 transmission in Indonesia. The pre-coordination meeting was attended by more than 150 participants.

In the implementation of this Pra-Rakorja, the Dean of Faculty of Law UII, Associate Professor Dr. Abdul Jamil, SH., MH., conveyed several points of explanation on the dean’s work program. One of them is professor acceleration. “The target in 2021, we will have five professors,” said Abdul Jamil.

Currently, Faculty of Law UII has six professors. This was conveyed in Abdul Jamil’s presentation at the 2020 Pra-Rakorja with the theme “Bertahan; Berbenah; Tumbuh; dalam Rangka Mencetak Lulusan FH Berintegritas dan Profesional (Defending; Clean up; Grow; in Order to Produce Faculty of Law’s Graduate with Integrity and Professional”. According to Abdul Jamil, currently Faculty of Law UII has 107 lecturers, but only has six professors. So, a stimulus is needed to immediately accelerate professors at Faculty of Law UII.

Abdul Jamil also said that this year’s Pra-Rakorja was carried out under special conditions. The Pra-Rakorja meeting was forced to not be carried out ‘face-to-face’ or offline due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The condition of the Covid-19 Pandemic is also the biggest challenge for Faculty of Law UII in implementing this year’s work program. Therefore, according to Abdul Jamil, Faculty of Law UII must ‘clean up’ and try to adjust to the situation in the new normal period. “In 2021 we must improve, we must be able to adjust the site. When we can make adjustments to the situation, and when the situation is normal, we must immediately ‘run’, to achieve the achievements for 2021, “said Abdul Jamil.

During the Pra-Rakorja presentation, Abdul Jamil also conveyed several flagship programs and activities in 2021. One of the flagship work programs is preparing the international accreditation of the Foundation for International Business Administration Accreditation (FIBAA). “We will prepare FIBAA accreditation for the undergraduate program, and international accreditation for the Master of Law Program and Notary Program”, said Abdul Jamil.

Beside the Professors Acceleration Program and FIBAA Accreditation, Faculty of Law UII also launched many internationalization programs in 2021. One of them is to conducting Research Collaboration with Ahmad Ibrahim Kuliyah of Laws International Islamic University Malaysia (AIKOLS IIUM).

The Pra-Rakorja will be followed by a Coordination Meeting to Concepting Working Plan (Rakorja) on Sunday (27-09-2020). Through the Pra-Rakorja, which was attended by all lecturers and education staff at Faculty of Law UII, it is hoped that it can provide constructive input for the implementation of the Coordination Meeting. “Therefore, we hope for input from all ladies and gentlemen for the smooth running of the Pra-Rakorja today,” said Abdul Jamil.
