Strengthening the Implementation of the Indonesian Police Professional Code of Ethics as a Strategic Effort in Building Transparency, Accountability and Legitimacy of the Police Institution
Compliance of Polri members with the Police Code of Ethics is essential to building public trust. Professionalism and integrity, reflected in transparency, accountability, and legal fairness, enhance Polri’s legitimacy as a law enforcement institution. Ethical violations such as abuse of authority, excessive force, or involvement in crimes can damage the police’s public image and indicate that ethical reforms remain ineffective. According to the theory of legal legitimacy, public trust improves when laws are enforced fairly and without discrimination. Social compliance theory suggests that officers’ adherence to ethical codes influences public legal compliance. To improve the effectiveness of code enforcement, ongoing internal reforms, periodic evaluations, and a clear reward and punishment system are required. Strengthening the role of the Professional and Security Division (Propam), enhancing transparency via accessible complaint mechanisms, and involving external oversight bodies such as Kompolnas and the Ombudsman are crucial to maintaining Polri’s credibility. Ethics and leadership education from the recruitment stage, alongside regular training in human rights and public engagement, can improve professionalism. Public involvement through citizen reporting and open forums also ensures the police remain service-oriented and accountable. With consistent implementation and strict supervision, Polri can strengthen its integrity, boost public confidence, and foster broader legal compliance within society.
Legal Protection for MSMEs in the Digital Economy: E-commerce Regulatory Innovation Toward Business Sustainability
MSMEs are very important to the national economy, they face many structural and legal challenges during the digital transformation. Relevant regulations include Law No. 20 of 2008 on MSMEs, the ITE Law, and Government Regulation No. 80 of 2019. This normative legal research uses a juridical-normative approach based on secondary legal materials and literature studies. It explores three main questions: the current legal protections for MSMEs in Indonesia's digital economy, the legal challenges MSMEs face in using e-commerce platforms, and how regulatory innovations can support sustainable business continuity.

Examining the Relationship Between Teacher Interaction and Satisfaction Among College Students
Student satisfaction in higher education is influenced by multiple factors, with teacher interaction often considered a key determinant. This study examined the relationship between teacher interaction and college students' satisfaction using a non-experimental quantitative correlational design. A sample of 100 students was selected through stratified random sampling. Results indicated a weak and statistically insignificant relationship between teacher interaction and student satisfaction (r = 0.164, p = 0.104), suggesting that teacher interaction alone is not a primary predictor of student satisfaction. These findings align with Self-Determination Theory (Deci & Ryan, 1985), which highlights autonomy, competence, and relatedness as more influential factors in academic fulfillment.
