War on drugs has been a justification issue for nationalism necessary. Various political figures have appeared by taking the opportunity. In this decade along with the rise of populist politics in various parts of the world, especially in Southeast Asia, drug dealer execution has been an instrument of punishment for the political elite to gain political support from populist society. Most of the executions are considered as human right violence by human right watch. This paper examines and studies the rustic characteristics of reason populism in war on drugs in Indonesia, the Philippines and Thailand, then compares how the issue of war on drugs is carried out by political elites while comparing the results and symptoms that arise in this deterrent populism reasoning policy.
Reconfiguring Post-Ahok Populism, Post-Truth, and Cyberspace in Indonesia, 2019

Furthermore, it is observed as the global phenomenon that cyberspace has become a significant site for such contestation, where disinformation and hate are frequently rampant (Bradshaw and Howard, 2017). In particular, Indonesia has recently witnessed the rise of political figures who embrace the aspiration of dissatisfied people; of these an Islamist group is one of the notable contestants among others attacking each other in cyberspace by frequent use of social media and fake news. This paper will, firstly, describe the nature of such populist cyber activities in the Indonesian political context, drawing primarily on that of the opposition parties' supporters in facing the 2019 presidential election, and, secondly, discuss the validity of the populist force in navigating Indonesian political dynamics, namely in terms of whether it will be a new political model or end up as a brief phenomenon empty of significance.

Cultural criminology criticizes the construction form of a news, the focus raised in this paper is the reciprocity aspect that mutually benefits both parties between the criminal journalist and the police institution. The police will always provide information, facilitate access, and news material to criminal journalists, the police are the ones who dominate the information and sources of crime news. Conversely, criminal journalists tend to framing with a positive image (good police) to the main source, the police institution. This paper analyzes the reciprocity aspect of mass media editorial of Pos Kota online.

Therefore, the reciprocity relationship between journalist and its news source has an effect on how a mass media doing framing.
