Dr. Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono I am pleased to welcome the distinguished delegates to the 5th World Islamic Economic Forum, which Indonesia is hosting for the first time. As Patron to the 5th World Islamic Economic Forum, I find it rewarding to witness how, year after year, economic cooperation among Muslim countries has been growing from strength to strength. In fact, the earlier World Economic Forums succeeded in promoting partnership for development not only within the Muslim world but also beyond. I am confident that this 5th World Islamic Economic Forum will also be successful in showcasing and fostering economic collaboration within the Islamic world as well as between the Islamic world and the rest of the international community. Indonesia is in the best position to serve as the hub of the wide-ranging interaction that is being advocated and promoted by the Forum. Indonesia is a politically stable and economically dynamic nation with a vast market of 230 million people, abundant natural resources, a highly skilled labour force and a pro-business policy environment. It is also home to the largest Muslim population in the world, the world’s third largest democracy and fourth largest population. Moreover, we in Indonesia are strong advocates of global partnership as a way of addressing the problems of our time. We believe that global problems require global solutions. Thus it is timely and appropriate that the theme of the Forum is “Food and Energy Security & Stemming the Tide of the Global Financial Crisis.” It is therefore my hope that in the course of the Forum the participants will find feasible ways of addressing the global financial crisis and ensuring food and energy security through a global partnership involving the nations of the Islamic world and the rest of the international community. Once again, on behalf of the Government and people of the Republic of Indonesia, I warmly welcome the participants to the 5th World Islamic Economic Forum. I also commend the hard work and creativity of the World Islamic Economic Forum Foundation and the Organizing Committee which will ensure the success of this Forum. H.E. Dr. Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono President of the Republic of Indonesia Patron of the 5th World Islamic Economic Forum Honourary Fellow of the WIEF Foundation 4 5th World Islamic Economic Forum 5th World Islamic 5 Economic Forum Preface from H.E. Dr. Sofyan A Djalil Co-Chairman of The 5th WIEF Organizing Committee Assalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh It is a great honor to host the 5th World Islamic Economic Forum. As the largest Muslim country in the world, Indonesia is the appropriate venue for this forum where the articulation of Islamic principles into business practices are emerging to flourish. The pressing issue of food and energy security and the recent global financial crisis precipitate an urgency for economic communities worldwide to take charge in improving on their respective sectors and fields. It is therefore our responsibility to maximize the potential of this Forum with the hope that it may bring upon wide and positive impact on Muslim ummah and the world at large. The 5th World Islamic Economic Forum is not only a continuation of the past forum, but more importantly it will address wide-ranging issues by experts from around the world. The forum consists of several programs, such as Young Leaders Forum with the theme “The Leadership Imperative: Towards a Good Succession Plan”, the Businesswomen Forum with the theme “Women Entrepreneurs: The Driving Force Towards a Stronger Future”, and the Main Forum with the theme “Food & Energy Security and Stemming the Tide of Global Financial Crisis”. The event will be concluded by a Post Forum Programme with the theme “Indonesia in Focus: Tourism and Investment in the Region”. The forum will be attended by many distinguished guests and around 80 prominent international speakers. The participants range from prominent heads of state/government and notable captains of business and industry to young entrepreneurs and businesswomen from various parts of the world with a shared view, and that is to strengthen business collaboration among the Muslim business community at large. The post forum program will provide the opportunity for our distinguished guests to be introduced to the immense resources that Indonesia has as well as the vast potential that has yet to be maximized. This forum will put emphasis on the various opportunities that Indonesia has to offer with more than 37 potential projects that we have specifically identified. These projects cover various sectors that comprise oil and gas, mining, agriculture, infrastructure, tourism, finance, and many more. I hope the program will give you an insight about the opportunity of the potential mutual benefit with Indonesia. It is my hope that this year’s World Islamic Economic Forum will bring much success through the contribution and cooperation by all of the participants and that this forum may become the platform for the trajectory of new and ongoing constructive relationships within the Muslim business community. Thank You Wassalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. H.E. Dr. Sofyan A. Djalil Co-Chairman of The 5th WIEF Organizing Committee 6 5th World Islamic Economic Forum 5th World Islamic 7 Economic Forum Preface from Tanri Abeng Co-Chairman of The 5th WIEF Organizing Committee On behalf of the 5th World Islamic Economic Forum Organizing Committee, we are delighted to welcome our delegates to this prestigious Forum whereby the sole vision is to promote the ongoing economic development and cooperation in the Muslim world as well as the non-Muslim world. With Indonesia as host for the first time, the 5th World Islamic Economic Forum has incorporated a few additional enhancements to the existing accomplished formats of the World Islamic Economic Forums – Pre-Forum and Main Forum. The Global CEO Panel is our first addition scheduled immediately after the existing Leadership Panel of past Main Forums whereby the Heads of States and top government officials impart their years of wisdom on the world economy from a governmental and policy point of view. To support these pearls of wisdom, the Global CEO Panel will then highlight from a business perspective a more detailed understanding of the present economic development, pressing issues and potential resolutions. Following this CEO Panel, the visible and concrete outcome of such collaborations in the Forum’s economic enterprises will be showcased through the signing of Memorandum of Agreements relating to bilateral or multilateral investments, specifically in this year’s Forum with the host country – Indonesia. A final addition to the 5th World Islamic Economic Forum is the Post Forum. This Forum will allow the business participants to focus on specific regional investment interests and raise awareness of natural tourism wonders belonging to the host country, with this year being “Indonesia in Focus” as its main theme. We hope the overall Program of the 5th World Islamic Economic Forum will bring novel economic strategies and ventures including stronger and more robust cooperation between the business communities attending the Forum, especially through the ample opportunities during the Forum for business networking. This exciting Program Book publication features all of our 3 Forums events – Pre-Forum, Main Forum and Post Forum with detailed schedules of all our plenary session topics and speakers. Last but not least, as co-chairman of 5th World Islamic Economic Forum, I extend our renowned Indonesian hospitality in welcoming our honored guests as well as thanking all for the continued support of our partners in the corporate community. Tanri Abeng Co-Chairman of The 5th WIEF Organizing Committee 8 5th World Islamic Economic Forum 5th World Islamic 9 Economic Forum Message from Hon. Tun Musa Hitam Chairman of The WIEF Foundation It is a pleasure to welcome you to the 5th World Islamic Economic Forum in the capital city of Jakarta, Republic of Indonesia. This year’s Forum bearing the theme “Food and Energy Security & Stemming the Tide of the Global Financial Crisis” seeks to address some of the most important issues confronting the Muslim world at present. Issues such as the global financial crisis, food and energy security, the role of SMEs in development, the prospects of green technology and its job growth trajectory are among the pertinent subjects that will be discussed in the plenary sessions of this year’s Forum. I am sure that this year’s Forum in Jakarta will be an informative and fruitful event for the government and business leaders and many others present, with the hope that more business cards will be exchanged, more business partnerships will be forged, and a stronger collaboration in trade in the Muslim world can be realized. I wish the participants of the Forum a great networking and enlightening session. And last but certainly not least, I would like to thank the Government of the Republic of Indonesia, the Indonesian National Organizing Committee and the Indonesian people for sharing our dream and giving us support to make this Forum an astounding success.

    ETIKA POLITIK DAN KEKUASAAN (Studi atas Pemilihan Ketua DPD RI Periode 2017-2019, Oesman Sapta Odang) Skripsi Diajukan Untuk Memenuhi Persyaratan Memperoleh Gelar Sarjana Sosial (S.Sos) Oleh: Muhammad Mardhiyulloh 11141120000045 PROGRAM STUDI ILMU POLITIK FAKULTAS ILMU SOSIAL DAN ILMU POLITIK UNIVERSITAS ISLAM NEGERI SYARIF HIDAYATULLAH JAKARTA 1440 H/2019 M ABSTRAK ETIKA POLITIK DAN KEKUASAAN (Studi atas Pemilihan Ketua DPD RI Periode 2017-2019, Oesman Sapta Odang) Pemilihan Ketua DPD RI merupakan bagian dari pemilihan pimpinan DPD RI, tercakup di dalamnya pemilihan wakil ketua I dan wakil ketua II. Terdapat sesuatu yang berbeda pada pemilihan ketua DPD RI periode 2017-2019 dengan pemilihan-pemilihan periode sebelumnya, yaitu kebiasaan memilih ketua DPD RI dari kalangan independen atau non partisan, sedangkan kali ini memilih ketua DPD RI Oesman Sapta Odang dengan status rangkap jabatan sebagai wakil ketua MPR RI periode 2014-2019 dan juga ketua umum partai Hanura. Selain itu, pemilihan tersebut juga sebagai wujud perubahan Tata Tertib DPD RI No. 1 Tahun 2014 yang mengatur masa jabatan pimpinan selama lima tahun menjadi No. 1 Tahun 2016 dan No. 1 Tahun 2017 dengan aturan dua tahun enam bulan. Secara otomatis periode pimpinan DPD RI 2014-2019 berubah menjadi periode 2014-2017 dan terpaksa berakhir pada April 2017. Namun demikian, Mahkamah Agung (MA) melalui putusannya No. 38P/HUM/2016 dan 20P/HUM/2017 membatalkan perubahan Tata Tertib DPD RI tersebut dan mengembalikannya pada Tata Tertib DPD RI No. 1 Tahun 2014. Akan tetapi, pemilihan tersebut tetap berlangsung dengan diwaranai kericuhan yang berdampak terhadap buruknya citra moral DPD RI. Skripsi ini mengkaji dinamika politik sebenarnya yang terjadi pada pemilihan pimpinan DPD RI periode 2017-2019, juga membedah fenomena tersebut dan status rangkap jabatan Oesman Sapta Odang dari sudut pandang etika politik, juga membongkar sumber-sumber kekuasaan Oesman Sapta Odang sebagai Ketua DPD RI terpilih.

In the course of the purges, hundreds of thousands, perhaps even over a million people are believed to have been killed, disappeared, raped, or tortured by state security forces and non-state actors abetted by the government. A large number of people were also allegedly detained in the decade following the purge with little regard for due process of law. Ensuring justice and remedies for the victims and their families is a legal obligation under Indonesian and international law. In the 850-page report released on 23 July, Komnas HAM found that state officials were responsible for the persecution of alleged members or supporters of the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) after the failed 1965 coup. The report characterized the persecution as gross human rights violations www.fidh.org / 17, passage de la Main-d’Or / 75011 Paris / France / Tél +33 (0)1 43 55 25 18 / Fax +33 (0)1 43 55 18 80 / [email protected] / N° SIREN 352 390 082 / Code APE 9499Z that were both widespread and systematic.

Both will attempt to answer the question: How has the moral ambiguity that marks both colonial and contemporary Australian crime fiction been informed and influenced by the dissenter and anti- authoritarian aspects of Australian history and character? Crime fiction has a long tradition in Australian culture, ensured by its Western origins as a penal colony.
