Regional expansion is the splitting of a province or district or city into two or more new regions. The impact of this regional expansion is that houses whose regional names change must update the information in their data. Including his land certificate. Secretary of the Directorate General of Determination of Land Rights and Registration (Sesditjen PHPT) Shamy Adrian said that the process of updating the address on this certificate will be free of charge. However, the community must take the initiative to submit it to the Land Office (Kantah) in each district or city. "This area change process is carried out at no cost. What is important is that the applicant can attach a certificate from the relevant sub-district, stating which sub-district the land in question is located in," explained Shamy Adrian.[1]

Regarding changes in address on land certificates due to regional expansion, it is regulated in Government Regulation (PP) Number 24 of 1997 concerning Land Registration. Article 36 in the PP states that maintenance of land registration data is carried out if there are changes to the physical data or juridical data of registered land registration objects. Then, rights holders are required to register these changes with Land Office (Kantah). Later the data on the certificate can be updated automatically in the system after being approved by the management at Land Office (Kantah).[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

A man has been missing for 22 years without a trace. Thanks to Google Earth, this person's whereabouts were discovered. William Moldt was reported missing from Lantana, Florida, on November 7, 1997. He did not return home after a night out. At around 21.30, the 40 year old man contacted his girlfriend to say he would be home soon. But apparently, that was the last contact between them.[1]

Then the police tried hard to find Moldt, but this case ended up being a cold case for more than two decades. Unexpectedly, in August 2019, a new bright spot where Moldt was located emerged. One day, someone was checking on his old house in the Grand Isles neighborhood of Wellington, Florida. When he looked at Google Earth, he saw something strange in a large pond. Curious, he zoomed in on Google Earth. He also saw an object that looked like a car and immediately contacted the person who lived in the house to check it.[2]

The homeowner, Barry Fay, then flew his drone over the area. It was there that he found a white car that had sunk. Fay rushed to report to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's office. Not long after, the police arrived. When the car was towed and the door opened, they found skeletal remains that were later confirmed to be Moldt's body. "Obviously it had been in the water for a long time," police said. Meanwhile, Fay admitted that she assumed it was just an old car wreck. “I never believed there would be a 22-year-old body,” he admitted to The Palm Beach Post. Additional facts, it turns out that the car has been seen on Google Earth since 2007. This is based on the Charley Project report, an online database of unsolved cases in the US. However, it took 12 years for someone to find it.[3]

Previously, the sheriff's office told the BBC in 2019 that Moldt likely lost control of his vehicle and crashed into a pond. However, witnesses said he did not appear drunk when he left the nightclub. Police insist that when the investigation into Moldt's disappearance was first launched, the car was nowhere to be seen. Now, there is a change in the pool waters so that these vehicles can appear. "You can't say for sure what happened years ago, what happened," police spokeswoman Teri Barbera told the news site. "All we know is that he disappeared from the face of the earth, and now he has been found," he said.[4] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

Mary Jane was arrested at Adisutjipto Airport, Yogyakarta, in 2010 for carrying a suitcase containing 2.6 kilograms of heroin. The Sleman District Court Panel of Judges then sentenced him to death in October 2010. When he was about to be executed simultaneously in April 2015, a request for a postponement came from the Philippine Government. The postponement was proposed after Maria Cristina Sergio, who initially recruited and promised Mary Jane a job as a domestic helper in Malaysia, surrendered to the Philippine police. Cristina admits to framing Mary Jane as a drug courier.[1]

Chairman of the Indonesian Legal Aid Center (PBHI) Julius Hebrew said that Mary Jane was a victim of a criminal act of human trafficking and was not the main figure of a drug syndicate. According to Julius, the legal system in Indonesia does not provide enough space for Mary Jane to defend herself. When interrogated, Mary Jane was not accompanied by a translator or lawyer. "Her profile alone doesn't allow Mary Jane to have tens of billions in drugs. Even buying a plane ticket can't afford it," said Julius. "I've been accompanying him since 2015. What happened to his family in the Philippines, when I went back and forth to the Philippines. I saw that he couldn't afford to buy basic necessities every day. How can he have tens of billions of rupiah worth of things like that?" continued Julius.[2]

When this article was published, This woman from the Philippines who was sentenced to death in connection with a drug case in Indonesia has returned to her country.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

Japan Asks Its Citizens To Write Cellphone Passwords And Applications In Wills

The National Consumer Affairs Center (NCAC), a private body that works with the Japanese government to protect consumer rights, advises Japanese citizens to share some data as "digital inheritance." It is recommended that the data be written down in the inheritance letter to prevent unnecessary use of digital services after they die. This recommendation was conveyed by NCAC, because many residents there tried to cancel subscriptions to services registered by those closest to them, before they died. Meanwhile, to cancel the service, you need a username and password which are usually kept secret from anyone.[1]

Therefore, NCAC advises Japanese citizens to share a number of digital data, including smartphone keys and certain account details, to make it easier to cancel digital services used during their lifetime. In more detail, NCAC recommends that the public take the following four steps:[2]

1. Make sure family members can unlock your smartphone or computer in case of an emergency.
2. Save your subscription list, user ID, and password. 
3. Consider entering those details into a document that can be accessed when you take your last breath. 
4. Use a service that allows you to designate someone to have access to your smartphone and other accounts after you die.

It is recommended that this recommendation be carried out now, considering that the process of completing the administration if the person concerned is gone takes quite a long time. Moreover, with the large number of smartphones used by each person, it can increase the complexity of completing the administration of each subscription service, as well as draining the credit card used for the subscription. Apart from making it easier to manage digital heritage, this recommendation is also considered to reduce the burden on data centers which ultimately minimizes environmental damage due to storage in the cloud.[3]

In Japan, the "Dead Man's Switch" application is available which allows users to determine which contacts can be contacted when they are detected as being inactive for a long time or are indicated to be dead.  Several digital platforms such as 'Meta' also provide a feature to close the accounts of deceased users, including on Facebook. Additionally, users can include legal contacts or heirs to manage the account when they die. Apple also has a similar feature, namely 'Legacy Contact', which allows users to assign someone to access their iCloud account data after they die. Unfortunately, not all platforms accommodate this feature. Apart from that, managing accounts will also be easier if you use a directly related account.[4] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

The founder of a Singapore oil trading company, Lim Oon Kuin, faced charges. Lim Oon Kuin was charged with defrauding HSBC bank out of millions of dollars. Lim Oon Kuin has been involved in the law since last May. He is considered to have damaged Singapore's reputation as a leading oil trading center in Asia. He owned a company called Hin Leong Trading, the largest oil trading company in Asia, before it collapsed in 2020. District Court Judge Toh Han Li is scheduled to sentence Lim today. Prosecutors demanded that Lim be sentenced to 20 years in prison.[1]

"This is one of the most serious cases of trade finance fraud ever prosecuted in Singapore," said the Public Prosecutor. Lim faced a total of 130 criminal charges involving hundreds of millions of dollars, but prosecutors tried and convicted him on only three counts. The second was charged with defrauding banking giant HSBC and the third for encouraging a Hin Leong executive to falsify documents. Prosecutors also said he tricked HSBC into disbursing almost US$ 112 million or the equivalent of IDR 1.7 trillion (exchange rate Rp. 15,850). The defendant told the bank that his company had signed oil sales contracts with two companies.[2]

"This transaction was actually a fabrication, made at the behest of the defendant. This seriously tarnishes Singapore's hard-earned reputation as a leading oil trading center in Asia," emphasized the prosecutor. As an additional information, Lim is now 83 years old. He founded the company in 1965. The company played a key role in helping Singapore become a leading ship refueling port in the world. However, this collapsed in 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic. The pandemic plunged the oil market into unprecedented chaos.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

Because of Criticizing Animal Care Centers, An Irish Tourist Arrested In Dubai

An Irish tourist didn't expect his holiday to end in disaster. It all started with online criticism of dog grooming companies. Craig Ballentine (33) worked as a dog groomer in Dubai for six months. She was having difficulty at work and left a negative online review about the treatment center and its experience. He then went on holiday to Abu Dhabi. However, when he arrived there, he was arrested by the authorities. A Detained in Dubai campaign group said that Ballentine faced prison time due to the UAE's cybercrime laws. Yes, the practice of online criticism is a cyber crime in the UAE.[1]

"Craig has been told by local lawyers that there is virtually no chance of the case against him being dropped," said Radha Stirling, a member of the organization. "The recently enacted cybercrime law in the UAE is a nightmare for foreigners. It is enough for a whistleblower to simply tell the police that someone posted something offensive or abusive," he said. Stirling said that Ballentine's parents were so worried that she didn't dare to give the news. Stirling even asked Northern Ireland's First Minister Michelle O'Neill to send a statement on his behalf. "Craig needs to go home and get to work. It's appalling that the authorities would allow such a frivolous crime report to ensnare visitors in the system," he said.[2]

"We have contacted Craig's local representative, Michelle O'Neill, to ask her to make a diplomatic statement to the UAE ambassador and the FCDO." Previously, the same case happened to Tori Towey. He was finally free after receiving help from O'Neill. "We hope he can help in the same way Ireland helped Tori Towey come home," he concluded.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

TEOFL Requirements for Civil Servant Candidate Tests Challenged to the Indonesia Constitutional Court

An Indonesian citizen named Hanter Oriko Siregar filed a lawsuit against the Law on Employment and the Law on State Civil Apparatus (ASN) to the Constitutional Court (MK). The lawsuit filed was related to the Test of English as Foreign Language (TOEFL). The lawsuit has been registered with case number: 159/PUU-XXII/2024. In his lawsuit, he asked the Constitutional Court to regulate that there is no longer a TOEFL requirement for Civil Servant Candidate tests or seeking work in private companies in Indonesia.[1]

He argued that the TOEFL requirement had prevented him from taking the CPNS/"Civil Servant Candidate" test at a number of agencies in 2024. He said there were agencies that made TOEFL with a minimum score of 450 an absolute requirement and had to be attached when registering for the CPNS/"Civil Servant Candidate" test. He also admitted that he could not achieve these requirements. He admitted that he had tried taking the test four times and the maximum score he got was 370.[2]

"That the application of conditions by requiring job seekers to master English well is proven by the existence of TOEFL as a mandatory and absolute requirement to be fulfilled as prospective CPNS/"Civil Servant Candidate" participants in each state/government agency as well as to apply for work in private agencies/companies as the Petitioner has mentioned in above is that it has harmed the Petitioner's constitutional rights which have been protected and guaranteed in Article 27 paragraph (1) and Article 28D paragraph (2), Article 28H paragraph (2), and Article 28I (2) of the Constitution of 1945 as the 1945 Constitution is the basis for all sources of law that apply in Indonesia," he said.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

Massachusetts Court Jurisprudence: Wedding Ring Must Be Returned If Marriage is Void

Previously, the www.hukumindo.com platform has talk about "A Young Woman From England, Falls In Love With a Con Man Named Lord Bertie", "Amazing, Public Road Transformed Into Garage", you may read also "A Wife in India Asked For a Divorce Because Her Husband Rarely Bathed" and on this occasion we will discuss about 'Massachusetts Court Jurisprudence: Wedding Ring Must Be Returned If Marriage is Void'.

Massachusetts' highest court recently ruled that an engagement ring worth US $ 70,000 or around IDR. 1 billion must be returned to its giver, without considering who caused the marriage to be annulled.  This case involves Bruce Johnson, who gave the diamond ring to Caroline Settino. Their relationship ended after Johnson found suspicious messages on Settino's cellphone. Johnson ultimately broke off the engagement after finding messages showing Settino's communications with another man.[1]

Initially, a lower court allowed Settino to keep the ring, finding Johnson had wrongly accused him of having an affair.  However, appeals courts, and ultimately the Massachusetts Supreme Court, reversed the ruling, stating that Johnson was entitled to get the ring back. The court explained that 'the engagement ring was a conditional gift related to the marriage agreement'.  If the marriage is annulled, the giver of the ring is entitled to its return, regardless of who was responsible for the end of the relationship. This ruling ends the long-standing standard of considering fault in determining entitlement to an engagement ring.[2]  

Following modern legal trends, Massachusetts courts have now joined most other jurisdictions in the US in rejecting the concept of fault in determining ownership rights to an engagement ring if the marriage is void.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
