Abstract
Corruption in the procurement of goods and
services remains a significant challenge in Indonesia, particularly in
island-based regions where geographical isolation, limited infrastructure, and
institutional weaknesses hinder effective law enforcement. This study aims to
analyze the judicial system obstacles in handling corruption cases related to
goods and services procurement within island-based jurisdictions. Using a
normative juridical approach combined with empirical insights from selected
cases, this research identifies several key barriers: limited investigative
capacity of law enforcement agencies, procedural delays in prosecution and
adjudication, lack of coordination between supervisory and judicial
institutions, and sociocultural factors influencing local governance. The study
reveals that geographical constraints often exacerbate the ineffectiveness of
legal mechanisms, resulting in weak deterrence and recurring corruption
patterns. Strengthening institutional synergy, enhancing digital-based supervision,
and promoting transparency in public procurement are recommended as strategic
measures to improve judicial responsiveness in island-based regions.
