“…Environmental laws and regulations at the policy level face various enforcement challenges, as they reflect the interests of powerful groups (Lynch 2020; Sahramäki and Kankaanranta 2021). The relationship between weak air pollution control and policy corruption has also been established in previous studies from other countries, such as the United States (US)(Basseches et al 2022;Gonzalez 2001;Scoville 2021), the UK(Walters 2009), China(Wang et al 2019;Yan 2020) and Indonesia(Husin and Tegnan 2017;Muslihudin et al 2018; United Nations Environment Program 2019).…”

Air pollution has been widely studied as a primary green crime, but its relationship with secondary green crime has not been well investigated in Thailand. This article explores the link between particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) pollution in the Bangkok Metropolitan Area and policy corruption, treating it as a secondary green crime. The study conducted documentary research, in-depth interviews, focus groups and a qualitative content analysis. The findings indicate that certain human activities could subsequently enable air pollution to occur and that corruption between the government and corporations seeking economic gain under favourable policies is a significant contributing factor. Business elites also play a role in environmental policy deadlock. Four sectors (i.e., vehicles and traffic congestion, construction, industrial factories and power plants, and agricultural burning) were identified as sources of PM2.5 pollution related to policy corruption. This suggests that addressing policy corruption is a necessary part of preventing PM2.5 pollution.

This research is quantitative research with a survey method that aims to obtain and determine the level of perception, namely on situational factors, perception factors, and object factors with research subjects namely women in 34 provinces in Indonesia. The sample in this study was women with an age range of 16 to 45 years with a total sample of 1,171 respondents and the distribution of research questionnaires was carried out online. The research finds that the situation factor which became the first indicator in this study, there were six questions given with an average of 78.62 or in the very good category range. The second indicator is the perception factor with eight questions that get an average of 60.34 so that it is included in the good category. The third indicator is the object factor with six questions that have a higher average value of 88.82 with an excellent category. This shows that the index of women’s perceptions of corruption cases in Indonesia has a very good index on the object factor, a good index on the situation factor, and a good index on the perception factor. However, women in Indonesia also perceive corruption as a normal thing and it has even become a culture in people’s lives. Therefore, it can be interpreted that corruption cases become objects or targets of events that are very influential in the minds or perceptions of women in Indonesia.

“…Law No.23/1997 failed to manage the activities causing deterioration and pollution of the environment, due to its leniency toward environmental and other governmental officials who did not comply with environmental laws. On October 03, 2009, Law No.23/1997 was repealed and replaced by the Environmental Protection Law No.32/2009, which sets forth criminal sanctions for license issuers, including government officials and law enforcement officers, who do not comply with the laws and regulations related to environment protection (Husin & Tegnan, 2017).…”

“…Then, in Article 97 of this Law, the basis for punishing perpetrators of environmental destruction was established. This law appointed ministers and regional leaders (governors, regents/mayors) to oversee all businesses/activities involved in environmental protection and management (Husin & Tegnan, 2017).…”

<div><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="left"><tbody><tr><td align="left" valign="top"><p class="AbstractText">Indonesia has enacted mining law, environmental protection law, and a number of rules addressing mining and environmental issues. However, the establishment of these numerous laws and regulations has not resulted in a decline in corruption cases and environmental degradation. In fact, government officials are frequently lenient with mining industry owners who fail to follow good environmental standards. This is critical since Indonesia has spent the last two decades attempting to resolve corruption and environmental challenges. This study describes specific instances of mining and environmental law confusion resulting from corrupt activities. The study takes a normative legal approach. Resources have been gathered through examinations of mining and environmental laws and regulations, as well as reports by multiple authorities that track the same subject. The study demonstrates how prior Indonesian mining law policy acknowledged regional governments as mining authorities. The policy has caused widespread mining corruption, particularly in the area of business permits, involving regional political leaders and the private sector. The irresponsibility of regional political elites has jeopardized the environment and ecosystem. It is also an echo of overlapping legislation and authorities in the mining and environmental sectors.</p></td></tr></tbody></table></div>
