Dynamics of Illegal Mining Law Enforcement in Arosbaya

Abstract

Handling the illegal mining problem in Buduran Village, Arosbaya Subdistrict, Bangkalan Regency, East Java, requires a comprehensive and diverse approach. This problem reflects the complexity between people's economic activities, laws and regulations, and environmental protection. First of all, stricter supervision and law enforcement are needed to prevent and crack down on illegal mining activities. This involves improving the capacity and independence of law enforcement officials, as well as increasing public legal awareness. In addition, there is a need to improve legal structures and legal culture that support compliance with the law and environmental protection. The government also needs to strengthen cooperation among various stakeholders, including local governments, law enforcement officials, NGOs and local communities, to find sustainable and equitable solutions. Thus, only through a holistic and integrated approach, supported by active participation from all parties, can the problem of illegal mining be effectively addressed to realize social justice, environmental sustainability, and overall community welfare.
