The massive forest and land fires in Indonesia have been raging and caused haze disaster. The haze disaster is not suffered only in Indonesian territory, but it has become a transnational disaster resulting in extensive economic and health quality losses. In addition, the disaster has led damage to agricultural land and disruption of diplomatic relations among affected states. The number of perpetrators of forest and land fires that increase annually shows that the enforcement of criminal law is relatively ineffective. This article covers the problem whether the principle of strict liability can be applied to the perpetrators of forest burning. In 2019, forest fires in the Jambi Province had took placed in estimated 165.86.58 hectares. The forest fire is the main source of transnational haze disaster. Law enforcement on forest fires in Jambi has not provided a deterrent effect yet. There are forty-six companies acquiring fires in their concession land areas. Unfortunately, only four of them reached court proceedings and only two companies were declared guilty by the court. Therefore, as a deterrent effort, the principle of strict liability can be applied as the main principle to handle perpetrators of forest burning.

This paper discusses the issue of consumer protection in criminal law, where in the applicable laws and regulations, the inclusion of standard clauses in motor vehicle loan agreements through leasing institutions whose contents are detrimental to consumers has been explicitly prohibited, even in the Consumer Protection Act there is a criminal threat for business actors who violate these provisions. But in practice, motor vehicle financing agreements through leasing still include standard clauses that provide flexibility to act for creditors when there is a problem in installment payments. With law enforcement against violating business actors, it is expected to provide a deterrent effect for business actors.

Abstract The biological potential in Indonesia is no longer managed and protected. So far Indonesia has had biologically related laws and regulations, but its implementation is still weak and less effective. Therefore, Law No. 32 of 2009 on Environmental Protection and Management or called UUPPLH mentioned the management and protection of biodiversity based UUPPLH namely two principles in law of criminal provision, the principle of remedium ultimum which is an effort, and the principle of premium remedium that takes care of the law. So far many mistakes in interpreting the application of the principle of remedium ultimum which is said to make it difficult for law enforcement to enforce environmental criminal laws and can shackle law enforcements in carrying out task of environmental law enforcement. In addition, it is also said that the principle of remedium ultimum can also harm the environment due to violations of waste water quality standards, emissions, and disturbances that take precedence is the administration of administrative sanctions, meaning that there is no deterrent effect on perpetrators. Therefore, it is necessary to deconstruct the principle of remedium ultimum in the proper enforcement of environmental criminal law including structuring and enforcement (compliance) which can also be a view of criminal law that can be used as an instrument in the framework of protection and management of tropical biodiversity, especially the environment and can bring consequences for the intertwining of criminal law with administrative law. The results of the research are based on UUPPLH that can protect biodiversity by Indonesia and reconstruct the principle of ultimum remedium in environmental law. Research methods using normative legal research on philosophical.
