PROBLEMATIKA NETRALITAS APARATUR SIPIL NEGARA DALAM PEMILU 2024 DI KOTA SAMARINDA
Abstract
The neutrality of the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) is a prerequisite for electoral integrity because civil servants have access to public authority, resources, and services that must not be used for electoral interests. This study examines problems concerning ASN neutrality during the 2024 elections in Samarinda, focusing on supervisory relations among the General Elections Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu), the General Elections Commission (KPU), and the Inspectorate, as well as the effectiveness of administrative sanctions. The research adopts a socio-legal approach by combining statutory analysis with field information obtained through surveys and input from relevant parties. Legal materials are analyzed qualitatively, while field data are examined descriptively to connect normative requirements with supervisory and enforcement practices. The findings indicate that a legal framework on ASN neutrality exists, but implementation continues to face challenges involving inter-agency coordination, the division of responsibilities for follow-up action, and the consistency of sanctions. The case of three Samarinda civil servants allegedly approaching political parties in connection with candidacy for local executive office highlights the need for supervisory recommendations to be followed up transparently, proportionately, and accountably. The study concludes that ASN neutrality depends not only on legal prohibitions but also on coordinated supervision, certainty of follow-up, and consistent sanctions.
