Yusuf Gunawan — 2023-09-17

The authority to adjudicate tax disputes in the tax court is currently technical-judicial guidance under the Supreme Court (MA) while in terms of organizational, financial, and administrative development under the authority of the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu), resulting in the independence and independence of the Tax Court is not objective. The purpose of the study was to juridically analyze the decision of the Constitutional Court (MK) regarding tax justice in Indonesia. The research method in this study uses normative juridical qualitative research methods with a statutory approach, historical approach, concept approach and comparative approach. The problem statement is 1. How are tax disputes resolved in Indonesia; 2. How to reform tax disputes in Indonesia after the decision of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia Number. 26/PUU-XXI/2023? The analysis theory uses the theory of justice which will analyze justice in resolving tax disputes before the enactment of the Constitutional Court decision, while the effectiveness theory will see the effectiveness of the court's work after the enactment of the Constitutional Court decision that must be carried out by the tax court. The conclusion of this study is that the settlement of tax disputes in Indonesia under the Ministry of Finance is considered less objective, less independent or less than providing a sense of justice in resolving tax disputes where tax handling by the state is represented by the Ministry of Finance and with the decision of the Constitutional Court No. 26/PUU-XXI/2023 can reform the tax court which is expected to be effective and provide taxpayer justice in resolving tax disputes. It is recommended for the two (institutions) of the state to coordinate and harmonize all provisions in the Tax and Justice Law within 3 years as mandated in the Constitutional Court decision and advised to the government and the House of Representatives (DPR) in revising the existing tax law. The war must end between two (2) institutions after the decision of the Constitutional Court No. 26/PUU-XXI/2023, in the authority to resolve tax disputes in Indonesia.

Mohammad Basuri — 2023-09-17

Durian peel waste which is difficult to decompose and not utilized properly has the potential to become a biological waste which causes environmental pollution. This research utilizes this waste to become bio-briquette as solid fuel such as bio-briquette using cassava peel flour adhesive. The implementation of this research consisted of 2 aspects, namely the manufacture of bio-briquette and testing of bio-briquette (technological aspects) and economic analysis (economic aspects). The aim of this study was to study the effect of the concentration of cassava peel flour adhesive and to study the effect of compressive strength on the characteristics of the resulting durian peel bio-briquette charcoal. Durian peel waste was first made into biochar by pyrolysis. Biochar was made into a slurry by mixing adhesive (with a concentration of 10, 15, and 20% of the total mixture. Then the mixture was put into a hydraulic press and pressed into a bio-briquette product. Bio-briquette products have potential applications in bioenergy production. The results showed that the best bio-briquette is bio-briquette at a compressive strength of 4 tons with an adhesive content of 20% by weight of biochar (Sample A3B4). The best bio-briquette characteristics include 31,39% volatile matter, 50,29% fixed carbon, 7,32% ash, 11% water, sulfur 0,116%, calorific value 5.856 cal/gr, relative density 0,65 g/cm³ and combustion rate 0,1035 gr/min. The results of the economic analysis show that the production of this bio-briquette has a Return on Investment (ROI) percentage of 32%, Pay Out Time (POT) of 2,3 years and Break Event Point (BEP) of 51%.

Exploring the Invasive Potency of Salmonella Typhimurium ST313 in Animal Infection Models

Hasta Handayani Idrus — 2023-09-17

The enigmatic virulence of invasive Salmonella Typhimurium ST313 strains in various animal infection models. Often associated with severe septicemia in infants within sub-Saharan Africa, the ST313 strains have shown distinct genetic and phenotypic differences from gastroenteritis-related ST19 strains, leading to conflicting interpretations of their in vivo virulence. However, a remarkable finding emerged: BALB/c mice infected with ST313 exhibited substantially higher bacterial counts in their blood at 24 hours compared to ST19-infected mice, suggesting a potential difference in invasiveness between these strains. The researchers also explored dissemination patterns, tracking bacterial burden in organs over time post-infection. Notably, when Indian rhesus macaques were infected with ST19 and ST313 strains, the outcomes unveiled intriguing insights. ST19-infected monkeys displayed moderate-to-severe diarrhea, while their ST313-infected counterparts showed little to no diarrhea. This aligns with clinical observations indicating that ST313 strains do not typically induce diarrhea in infected individuals. The corroborative non-human primate results validate clinical observations, suggesting that ST313 strains generally evade causing diarrhea. This study not only bridges the gap in understanding the varied virulence of ST313 but also underscores the importance of animal models in deciphering the complexities of bacterial infections. As the landscape of bacterial pathogens continues to evolve, such studies provide crucial insights into the intricate mechanisms underlying infection dynamics and offer valuable knowledge for the development of effective prevention and treatment strategies.

Borax Compounds Tested at Permanent Meatball Shops in The Area of Bantaeng Sub-District using Qualitative and Quantitative Methods

Mega Fia Lestari — 2023-09-17

Meatballs are a food that has fans of various ages, from small children to adults. Currently, meatballs containing borax are very widespread on the market. Borax is added by manufacturers because it can function as a preservative and improve the texture of food. However, borax is a substance that is prohibited from being used in Indonesia because it can cause various diseases, such as central nervous disorders and disorders of the liver. Bantaeng sub-district is one of the sub-districts in Bantaeng District, South Sulawesi Province. Based on the results of observations, meatballs are quite popular with the people of Bantaeng sub-district. This is because there are many permanent meatball stalls that are frequently being visited by consumers.

This study aims to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze the borax content in meatballs sold at permanent meatball stalls in Bantaeng sub-district. The sampling technique used is random sampling, which is a type of probability sampling in which everyone in the entire target population has the same chance of being selected. The population in this study was all permanent meatball stalls in Bantaeng sub-district. While the sample used is permanent meatball stalls that are the best-selling or the most crowded in Bantaeng sub-district.

Qualitative analysis was carried out using the decomposition test, flame test, and turmeric paper test. The decomposition test is a test to observe whether there is a physical change in the meatball samples during the 3-day storage period. Parameters observed in the decomposition test included appearance, color, smell, and texture. The flame test is carried out to identify the presence of borax compounds by producing a greenish flame color if it is positive for borax compounds. While the turmeric paper test is a test using turmeric paper from turmeric extract. Turmeric extract can be used as a borax detector because it contains curcumin. The curcumin compound can decompose borax bonds into boric acid and bind it to a rose-colored complex (brownish-red), commonly called the borocyanine curcumin complex. So if it is positive for borax, the turmeric paper will turn brownish-red. Based on the results of the qualitative analysis, the five samples analyzed showed negative results for the three tests.

A quantitative analysis was carried out to determine quantitatively how much borax was contained in the meatball samples. Quantitative analysis was carried out using the acid-base titration method. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution will react with borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O) to form boric acid (H3BO3). This boric acid will react with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to produce sodium metaborate (NaBO2) in the form of a clear, colorless solution. So it is necessary to add phenolphthalein as an indicator so that it can be visually observed to give rise to a pink color. The results of the quantitative analysis showed that there was one sample containing borax, but with a very small concentration of 0.0095%. Because this level is very small, close to zero, when tested qualitatively, it cannot be detected

Analysis of BOD, COD, and TSS in Leachate at Batu Terang Landfill, Bontosalluang Village, Bissappu District, Bantaeng Regency

Sherly Towolioe — 2023-09-17

Leachate is a liquid waste that has the potential to cause environmental pollution because it contains toxic compounds and contains pathogenic microorganisms. Therefore, leachate should not be discharged directly into water bodies without prior treatment and known quality. Leachate is a liquid that seeps through garbage piles by carrying suspended solid, especially the result of the decomposition process of waste matter. To overcome the leachate problem, leachate treatment efforts are needed at the landfill site.This research is descriptive quantitative which aims to determine the quality of leachate at the Batu Terang Landfill (TPA) Bantaeng Regency.

Leachate samples were taken from 4 sampling points, namely reservoir wells, anaerobic ponds, facultative ponds and maturation ponds. Analysis of leachate quality based on parameters of temperature, pH, Biology Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), and Total Suspendid Solid (TSS). According to the leachate quality standard requirements based on the Regulation of the Minister of Environment and Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia No. 59 of 2016, the results of research on the reservoir well are pH of 8.55; temperature of 29 oC; BOD of 1201.12 mg/l; COD of 4400.44 mg/l, and TSS of 59 mg/l; while in the anaerobic pond obtained a temperature of 25 ºC, pH of 10.43, BOD of 2616.45 mg/l, COD of 9512.25 mg/l, and TSS of 161 mg/l. In the facultative pond, the temperature was 25 ºC, pH of 9.33, BOD of 2163.07 mg/l, COD of 7199.16 mg/l, and TSS of 158 mg/l. In the maturation pond, the temperature is 25ºC, pH of 8.51, BOD of 1856.87 mg/l, COD of 59975.50 mg/l, and TSS of 152 mg/l. The results of this study indicate that BOD, COD, TSS and pH have not met the leachate quality standard requirements caused by the absence of aeration processes in facultative and maturation pools, while the temperature has met the leachate quality standard requirements based on the Minister of Environment and Forestry RI No. 59/2016.

Fauziah Ramdani — 2023-09-17

This research is entitled Public Perception of the Halal Status of the Indonesian Ulema Council on Jco Donut Products in Indonesia. The goal to be achieved is to find out public perception of the existence of halal fatwas published by the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) on Jco donut products in Indonesia. To achieve this goal, the methodology used is qualitative descriptive research with data collection techniques through interviews (interviews) and literature studies (literature review). The results showed that the existence of halal fatwas on Jco Indonesia donuts showed different public responses or perceptions, including the following; First, the response of the community who became calmer and did not hesitate anymore in buying and consuming Jco donuts because of the official halal status of MUI. Second, the lack of public attention with the development of opinion that Jco donuts consumed are halal, and do not evaluate the truth of the information. The assumptions that develop in the community that Jco donuts do not contain ingredients and illegal processing methods are seen as one of the influences of the lack of community literacy culture in responding to information about the existence of halal status officially issued by the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) on the 19th of the 5th month of 2023 and what attitude consumers must show towards the issuance of the fatwa. Third, the Jco Donut producers regarding the issuance of the MUI halal certificate fatwa are increasingly beneficial for Jco donut producers in gaining more consumer interest and will have implications for the increasing number of Jco Donuts enthusiasts in Indonesia.

Sukoso Sukoso — 2023-09-17

In the Indonesian culinary world, meatballs have gained immense popularity and get a local name as “bakso”. Bakso comes in various dishes, such as meatball noodles or chicken noodles, and is often used as a mixed ingredient. Bakso is a meatball-shaped product made from animal protein, such as beef, chicken, fish, and shrimp. Bakso as food that is well kown in the community is a tool to solve the problem of stunting. Stunting is one of the serious problem that occurs in condition of growth failure in children under five due to chronic malnutrition. Stunting causes children to be shorter than they should be for their age, which is caused by malnutrition. Fish and fishery products have the potential to solve the stunting problem, one of which is fresh water fish. One of the freshwater fish that this research focuses on is Patin Fish (Pangasius sp.). This study uses two additional ingredients: carrageenan flour and moringa leaves in order to increase the nutritional value and appearance of the product . This study aimed to investigate whether adding carrageenan flour and moringa leaves affects Patin fish meatball’s nutritional content and organoleptic characteristics. This study used the experimental method of making Patin fish meatballs fortified with various levels of carrageenan flour and moringa leaves. The parameters tested included carbohydrate, protein, fat, water, ash, and multiple tests of appearance, aroma, taste, and texture. The ANOVA, Tukey, and Kruskal Wallis test results showed that the parameters were tested in fish meatballs with carrageenan flour and moringa leaves (Moringa oleifera L.).

Siti Maryam — 2023-09-17

A food can be said to be halal and permissible in Islamic law if the food is free from pork contamination. Pork contamination usually occurs in meat-based foods. Beef hamburgers and meatballs are foods made with meat as a base. This study aims to detect whether there is pork DNA contamination in beef hamburgers and pork DNA contamination in beef meatballs, chicken meatballs, and fish meatballs circulating in the city of Makassar using the PCR ( Polymerase Chain Reaction ) method. PCR is an in vitro DNA synthesis and amplification technique that is capable of producing results in a short time, has high sensitivity, and can be used for testing and DNA manipulation. This study used fresh pork as a positive control and fresh beef as a negative control, as well as 4 kinds of beef hamburger samples and 8 kinds of meatball samples taken from supermarkets and traditional markets. There are three stages in the PCR process, namely denaturation at 95°C, annealing at 50°C, and extension at 72°C. The amplification was carried out for 30 cycles, the PCR amplification results used a pig specific primer, namely cyt b gene which showed that of the four beef hamburger meat samples analyzed, it was suspected that there was contamination of pork DNA from one of the samples while the eight meatball samples circulating in the northern part of Makassar city were suspected There were two samples containing pork DNA, namely beef meatball b and fish meatball samples which were marked by visible bands in UV light on the amplification results. From the results of this study it can be concluded that it is necessary to carry out further testing of samples suspected of containing pork DNA.

The results of the study show that there is an excellent need for halal vaccinations for the elderly. Elderly perceptions of halal vaccination tend to be positive. They see halal vaccination as a solution that protects health and provides a sense of security. Factors affecting the participation of the elderly in vaccination programs include lack of access to adequate information, low confidence in the halalness of vaccines, and social and cultural factors. The implication of this research is the importance of providing halal vaccinations that can meet the needs of the elderly. This can be done through increasing communication and providing clear information regarding vaccine halalness, involving related parties in preparing vaccination policies that pay attention to the needs of the elderly, and increasing public health literacy regarding halal vaccinations.

Design of Chicken Processing Tools using QFD (Quality Function Deployment) and Anthropometry Approaches to Improve Chicken Halal Integrity

Nismah Panjaitan — 2023-09-17

Islamic Sharia requires consumers to consume products that are guaranteed to be halal and pure. Chicken, which is a type of animal that is halal for consumption, can become non-halal if its slaughter and handling do not comply with Islamic law. This research was conducted in several businesses selling broiler chickens in the city of Medan. From initial observations, it can be seen that several production activities can make chicken meat non-halal, especially in the process of stacking chickens in barrels after the slaughter process and before the boiling process. The aim of this research is to design processing tools at chicken slaughterhouses to maintain and improve the halal integrity of chicken meat. The initial design of tools for processing chickens was made based on the results of field observations using QFD and anthropometric approaches. Questionnaires were distributed to obtain product attributes and improvements from the initial design of chicken processing aids. The data from the questionnaire was then tested for validity and reliability and the final design of the chicken processing tool was obtained. Determination of tool size is determined using an anthropometric approach. The working system designed is that after the chicken is slaughtered, the chicken will be put into a chicken processing tool which can accommodate 10 chickens and there are 10 partitions in this tool so that the chicken is not crushed by other chickens. At the end of the chicken processing tool there is a valve that can be opened if the chicken has gone through an inspection process which aims to ensure that all the chickens are dead. Once the chicken is confirmed to be dead, the valve will be opened by sliding the hinge so that the chicken will automatically go straight into the boiling process so as to avoid the chicken dying from exposure to hot water. If chicken processing tools are applied at the chicken slaughterhouse, the chicken produced can be halal.

Zelfia Zelfia — 2023-09-17

The Ammatoa indigenous community is a traditional group inhabiting the protected forest area of Kajang in Bulukumba Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. This community lives harmoniously with nature, adhering to a way of life that involves nurturing the forest as a source of sustenance while practicing traditional agriculture. An intriguing aspect from a communication perspective is that the Ammatoa Adat community communicates verbally using a local language and wears all-black attire without footwear. In their daily lives, the traditional Ammatoa society strongly upholds their customs while intentionally distancing themselves from the influence of production and communication technologies. This study aims to understand the social structure of the Ammatoa indigenous community and their level of acceptance or rejection towards technologies that might bring about changes in their lives. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method with an ethnographic communication approach, utilizing in-depth interviews and participatory observations. The study draws upon the Social Construction of Technology (SCOT) theory and the Identity Negotiation Theory by Stella Ting-Toomey to explore how the identity of the Ammatoa Adat community plays a role in their interactions. The findings reveal that the Ammatoa indigenous community is open yet selective, utilizing technologies such as mobile phones, the internet, and other social media platforms as long as these do not disrupt their customs. In this manner, the Ammatoa Adat community strives to preserve their cultural identity by embracing changes selectively. Various social norms were also identified within their culture, such as prohibitions against pruning trees during flowering seasons, capturing animals during their breeding periods, and the obligation to plant trees for sustenance and environmental conservation. Consequently, it can be inferred that the Ammatoa indigenous community possesses a functional biculturalism ability, allowing them to transition between different cultures with ease. This capability empowers the Ammatoa Adat community to integrate into external cultures without compromising the essence of their sustaining customs.

Fermented Plant-Based Milk as Halal Functional Food: Bacterial Profile and Health Potential

Nur Fa’iq — 2023-09-17

The research on functional food development is driven by consumers’ increasing preference for functional food. Fermented milk products, dominated by dairy milk, are starting to switch to plant-based milk. The issue of lactose intolerance in dairy products still matters among Indonesian consumers, which is one of the reasons for the development of plant-based milk. Apart from that, the issue of halal is one of the considerations of the Indonesian people, mainly Muslim consumers. The obligation to consume halal food in Muslim communities encourages the development of halal food research. This literature review aims to review fermented vegetable milk, namely kefir and yogurt, and the bacterial profile and health potential they produce. The most frequently used plant-based milks are soy and corn, with and without adding other ingredients. The bacteria most commonly found in fermented milk are Lactobacillus sp. Plant-based fermented milk has the potential to be a functional food because it can stimulate the immune response, increase mucosal immunity activity, and reduce cholesterol, obesity, and hypertension. In addition, adding other ingredients to manufacture plant-based fermented milk also has a positive impact, especially in maintaining milk quality. Plant-based fermented milk has the potential to be developed on a broader scale because it is free from the issue of lactose intolerance, which many people avoid. Apart from that, there are still opportunities to use other ingredients to improve the quality and physiologic function.

What is with Customers Buying Behaviour: an Examining Processes of Customers Habit Conducted with Association Rules

Ar-Royyan Utama Tanjung — 2023-09-17

Along with the way of information technology development, companies nowadays can easily obtain, save, analyze, and interpret relevant data more significant and even cheaper. To get the understanding of consumer behavior and optimizing sales, a retail company could do everything to achieve their goal. Association Rule is one of the data mining methods that can determine the relationship between two things or analyze the relationship between two items when combined is Association Rule (Mohamad Fauzy1, 2016). In this study, data processing of product sales transactions at retail store R will be carried out as many as 50 customers receipts.The method used is Market Basket Analysis to see the association relationship (correlation) between a few sales attributes. The algorithm is using the Frequent Pattern Growth (FP-Growth) algorithm. This algorithm is used to generate item sets which will later be used to determine association rules. Support, which indicates the frequency of itemset in the dataset. Confidence, measures how strongly two things in a rule are associated. Lift Ratio, measures if a link within a rule is more significant than random chance. The figures presented provide a comprehensive overview of the initial layout of retail store R, as shown in Figure 1, and the corresponding assortment of goods distributed across different departments, as detailed in Figure 2. Following data compilation, there is an essential step in converting this data into binomial form to facilitate further processing and the extraction of valuable insights. Subsequently, sophisticated data analysis techniques, namely the Association Rules method and the FP-Growth algorithm, are applied within the RapidMiner software. This meticulous analysis yields valuable results, as depicted in Figure 3, revealing crucial information and patterns within the retail store's data, thereby assisting in informed decision-making and optimization of the store's operations. RapidMiner is a tool that can completely shows many coefficients needed to explain information contained in the data. Here, coefficients like support, confidence, and lift ratio are results chosen. Support explains how likely a certain relationship between two events occurred, while confidence is a coefficient that bolsters the relationship. This research uses a minimum support value of 0.1 to eliminate weak relationships between events. Events that have a lift ratio that no more than 1 are also being eliminated. Customers unconsciously tend to buy products that has a similar scent, this behavior showed by retail customers generally. From the results obtained, it can be seen that ritel store R does not really have a problem with the layout of items. It can be seen from the results obtained from RapidMiner software that the combination of products purchased, and matched with the existing layout in the retail store. Although some layouts are not close together this is not necessarily a bad thing. Placing products far apart makes it easier for customers walking through other aisles to seeother items.

Application of Association Rules-Market Basket Analysis through Sales Transaction in Retail NF

Nada Putri Fauziyah — 2023-09-17

In the era of industrial revolution and technological advancements, society is pampered with the presence of various shopping centers. The proximity of these shopping locations provides various options for customers to visit, but this leads to intense competition among businesses. One of the shopping destinations is Retail NF, a retail center that provides daily necessities, especially for families and students. In its operations, Retail NF prioritizes customer service and comfort. Therefore, to maintain and enhance customer loyalty, Retail NF needs to create a marketing strategy that involves the application of Association Rule Market Basket Analysis to understand customer shopping behavior patterns. This research aims to identify associative relationships among item purchases at Retail NF and find marketing strategy solutions to increase the sales. This research was conducted at Retail NF with 12 product departments. Data collection was carried out for 7 days from September 13th to September 20th, 2022. A dataset of 50 consumer shopping receipts was used, which had undergone pre-processing data and was subsequently processed using the Rapidminer software. By employing the AR-MBA method, the minimum support value used by the researcher is 10%, and the minimum confidence required in this study is 50%. Four rules meeting the criteria for valid association relationships have been identified. Department 2 (snacks) will be purchased together with department 4 (drinks), with the confidence level of 68% and supported by 26% of the overall data. Department 6 (toiletries) will be purchased together with department 2 (snacks), with the confidence level of 71% and supported by 10% of the overall data. Department 7 (bread) will be purchased together with department 2 (snacks), with the confidence level of 71% and supported by 10% of the overall data. Lastly, department 3 (cigarettes) will be purchased together with department 4 (drinks), with the confidence level of 77% and 14% of the overall data. The Association Rule-Market Basket Analysis revealed valuable insights for Retail NF in creating more effective marketing strategy. The results highlighted strong associations between snacks and drinks, as well as cigarettes and drinks, suggesting the promotion of product bundling opportunities. However, the associations involving toiletries and bread were supported by less data but still significant and can be enhanced by applying shopping coupons. A layout redesign for the store shelves is needed to address the observed simultaneous purchase of items from non-adjacent departments. The marketing strategy can leverage these associations for increased sales and customer loyalty. Limitations stem from the short data period, necessitating an extended analysis to capture seasonal trends and assess association stability. From the results of four association rules obtained and the analysis of consumer behavior, the recommended marketing strategies given are changing the layout, making shopping coupons, and promoting product bundling.

Evaporation Rate Enhancement in a Traditional Salt Pond using a Natural Halal Water-Absorbing Material

Setyawati Yani — 2023-09-17

Indonesia is the fourth longest coastline in the world, but the vastness of Indonesia’s coastlines does not guarantee that Indonesia’s salt needs are met. Indonesia still imports salt for consumption and industrial purposes. Salt production in Indonesia is mostly carried out conventionally using the evaporation method in salt ponds by salt farmers. The disadvantages of this method include the high level of air humidity and the short dry season in Indonesia as well as the limited land area for salt ponds. As a result, the production process takes quite a long time, the quality of the salt produced is low and the production quantity is less than optimal. In the process of evaporation of water in salt ponds, the area of mass transfer is only as large as the area of the pond. In order for the evaporation process to run quickly, a larger surface area for water evaporation is required. The use of water-absorbing materials arranged regularly using the immersion method in salt ponds can increase the mass transfer surface area so that salt production is faster. This research is intended to provide solutions to salt farmers in increasing the productivity and quality of the salt produced by an innovation to increase the surface area in the pond evaporation process by immersing a halal natural water absorbing materials into the ponds. The aim of the research is to carry out surface area tests on a laboratory scale prototype of a traditional salt pond equipped with water-absorbing media from a halal natural material. The seawater raw material used for the research was obtained from a pond owned by a partner salt farmer from Jeneponto Regency. The results showed that the addition of water absorbing media significantly accelerated the evaporation of the brine. The greater the evaporation surface area, the faster the evaporation process will be. This may result in the increase of salt production.

Improvement of Layout and Design of Sales Strategies at OPQ Minimarkets using the FP-Growth Algorithm

Igoh Satria Futra Pratama — 2023-09-17

The existence of shopping centers in the community certainly positively impacts human livelihoods. Indirectly, it helps and facilitates people in fulfilling their daily needs. On the other hand, shopping center management faces challenges to advance their business. One way to survive and compete is by implementing the right marketing strategy. In designing these strategies, it is necessary to have information related to the purchasing habits or patterns of products carried out by customers. This information can be historical purchasing data at a shopping center. This data or information will make purchasing patterns and association rules between purchased items known. Then, once the output is known, interpretation will be conducted for marketing strategy improvement and enhancement. This research aims to determine and identify association rules or combinations of items purchased by customers at the OPQ minimarket. Data was collected using a questionnaire, and 50 purchase transaction data were gathered. The data was processed using the AR-MBA (Association Rules-Market Basket Analysis) approach to discover rules and item combinations. The algorithm used was FP-Growth, which played a role in identifying purchasing patterns that frequently occurred in the 50 customer transaction data. Data processing was performed using Microsoft Excel to categorize product departments and transform the data. The categorization of departments formed a total of 13 departments, which facilitated data analysis. The process continued using RapidMiner to identify patterns or association rules. Afterward, suitable and valid association rules were determined based on confidence, support, and lift ratio values. The results obtained from the data processing using the FP-Growth algorithm revealed the formation of several association rules and inter departmental decisions. Specifically, three association rules were established, indicating that items in these departments are often purchased together. This was substantiated by confidence values ranging from approximately 50% to 72%, falling into the reasonably good category. Furthermore, the support values went from 10% to 16%, providing sufficient support for these rules. These established rules are considered valid because they have a lift ratio greater than 1. In one of the association rules formed, a connection or item combination exists between Department 1 (Spices and Condiments) and Department 2 (Food and
Snacks). This suggests that there is a high likelihood, around 72.7%, that customers will purchase both items together, with a support value of 16%. It is known that the established rules benefit the sustainability of sales at the OPQ minimarket. These results are a benchmark for improving the layout and designing marketing strategies. Improvements to the layout of the OPQ minimarket include bringing two departments closer together and creating a customer flow that allows them to pass through specific departments. Furthermore, for sales strategy design, bundling products can be completed at a relatively low price, targeting products that are less popular but are appealing when combined with other products. Additionally, discounts or price reductions can be offered to increase customer loyalty. Based on the processed customer transaction data, several conclusions have been drawn that can be applied by the management of the OPQ minimarket. The fundamental aspect of layout improvement and marketing strategy design is derived from the association rules or relationships among items purchased by customers. For layout improvement, consideration can be given to association rules with high support and confidence values. Meanwhile, the importance of support and confidence can also be considered for sales strategy design, but they can be adjusted according to the actual conditions in the mini market.

Syamsul Bakhri — 2023-09-17

The skin is often exposed to sunlight and pollution, which can cause dullness, dryness and loss of moisture, so it is necessary to use the right body scrub product to nourish the skin. This research is about making body scrubs from coffee grounds and liquid soap, which aims to determine the effect of adding coffee grounds to body scrubs on organoleptic tests, pH, homogeneity, humidity and level of irritation. This research began with making a body scrub using experimental methods with 3% cornstarch as a fixed variable, coffee grounds and liquid methamphetamine as changed variables whose composition was variant 1 (57% liquid soap and 40% coffee grounds), variant 2 (47% liquid soap and 50% coffee grounds), and variant 3 (37% liquid soap and 60% coffee grounds). Organoleptic, pH and homogeneity testing using descriptive methods, and testing for moisture and irritation levels such as itching, redness and edema using analytical observation method and questionnaires for 13 panelists. The results of this research are that all body scrub preparations are safe against irritation level tests, but only variants 1 and 2 have good humidity, but all body scrub preparations have a pH that does not match the standard pH of the product beauty (SNI 16-4399-1966) so it is not safe for use by the public.

Efforts to Preventing the Risk of Mental Workload using the NASA-TLX Method for Woodworkers

Hanif Maulana Albar — 2023-09-17

By relying on several advanced technologies and other automation systems, the development of the Industry 4.0 revolution brings changes to the industrial sector in Indonesia. One of these changes occurs in the production sector, where the process allows for alterations in activities or work cycles. This is common in all workplace environments due to the workload imposed on workers exceeding their capacity at PT. X, a Veneer Preparation stage significantly affects the quality of the produced plywood. Therefore, this process requires high concentration and precision during its execution. The demands for attention and accuracy that must be met are two crucial factors influencing the mental workload of workers. Such conditions can adversely affect the stability of the company's productivity levels and the mental well-being of its employees. Hence, further investigation into the mental states of the workers is necessary to take action by implementing the proposed recommendations for the company's benefit. The data obtained consists of weighting results and ratings given within a range of 0-100. It will then calculate product values by multiplying the weight values by the rating values. Table 1 shows the summarizes the weighting, ratings, and product value. The next step involves calculating the WWL by summing up all the product values obtained for each operator. Then, to get the mental workload score, it calculates the average WWL by dividing the WWL value by the total number of comparisons. Table 2 shows the results of the grouping of mental workload scores. Based on the results of the mental workload calculation using the NASA-TLX method, it can be observed that all operators received scores in the moderate category, which are 48.6, 51.67, 49, 49, 44, and 58.33. Most operators received the highest ratings in the Effort (EF) indicator, which is attributed to the manual nature of the work and the considerable effort required to complete the tasks. On the other hand, the lowest ratings were found in the frustration level (FR) indicator, as the level of frustration among workers is generally relatively low. This is due to the physically demanding nature of the work, which only sometimes involves complex mental considerations. Based on the calculations and analysis conducted, the measurement of mental workload can be carried out in two ways: objectively and subjectively. In the calculations using the NASA-TLX method, it is evident that all operators fall into the moderate category. These values can be influenced by both external and internal factors, such as the physically demanding nature of the work, workplace facilities and infrastructure, and the need for improved work motivation. Therefore, recommendations that can be made include: Maintaining workload distribution, Paying attention to the facilities and infrastructure used in the repair and selection unit, Motivating employees and Conducting regular checks of employees’ mental workload to control it effectively.

Halal Industry as an Opportunityand Growth Potential Sustainable Sharia Economy

Muhammad Nusran — 2023-09-17

Indonesia is the country with the largest Muslim population in the world, namely 87.2% of Indonesia’s 270 million population, which is 13% of the entire Muslim population in the world. With such a large number, the need for halal products in Indonesia is very large. Therefore, Indonesia is referred to as the embodiment of the world halal industry market. The halal industry has a strategic role in improving the economy. Therefore, it is very unfortunate that the potential of the halal industry in Indonesia has not been fully exploited. Data in the field shows that there is still very little output from the halal industry in Indonesia. The halal industry should have a significant impact on national economic growth. The government in this case has provided a cluster for the halal industry. The halal industry clusters are: Food and beverages; Tourism, Fashion, Media and recreation, Pharmacy, and cosmetics. The problem is that Indonesia, as a population with a Muslim majority, is still unable to make Halal products the main source of economic commodities. There are still products that have not received halal certification which are widely circulated in the community. This makes a gap between the majority of citizens and the growth of halal products on the economic growth of the Muslim community. This research aims to see the economic growth capacity of Muslim communities with the number of producers and consumers who are the majority of citizens in Indonesia. This research uses quantitative methods by examining more deeply the economic growth of communities dominated by Muslim communities on national economic growth. The hypothesis is that the economic growth of the Muslim community should dominate the growth of the national economy. This is because the majority of citizens in Indonesia are Muslim people who are obliged to produce and consume only halal products. The research tool used for decision-making is Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). In addition, to assess the economic growth of the majority of citizens, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) measurement tools are used for internal analysis (strengths and weaknesses) and external analysis (opportunities and threats). The expected results of this research are: determining the opportunities and potential for halal economic growth to support national economic growth.

The results show that the use of sawdust in cofiring contributes to increasing combustion efficiency and reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and other pollutants. The use of white teak sawdust also provides a promising economical alternative with the potential to reduce operational costs. This research contributes to efforts to improve energy sustainability in the steam power plant industry and provides a basis for developing strategies for implementing the use of sawdust as an alternative fuel in a power plant in Indonesia.

The Power of Words: Motivating Secondary Students using Positive Reinforcement

Musfira Hidayat — 2023-09-17

Motivation is a significant thing for every student to acquire enthusiasm for learning. Successful teachers are teachers who have the ability to foster the spirit and motivation to learn (Karwati, E., & Priansa, 2013) . There are two factors influence each other in the learning process so that to produce effective learning. Internal factors include; physiological/physical factors and psychological factors, while external factors include; family factors and school factors. Since the last two years students have become familiar with online learning, students have become less active in conveying their aspirations and thoughts, which can lead to boredom in learning because they usually look for material on the internet and so on. Therefore, it is necessary to provide reinforcement so that students are enthusiastic in learning. The researcher used a qualitative method in this research. This research was started in March. The subject of this research was class X Mipa 2 which consisted of 36 students. The instruments of this research are an observation checklist, questionnaire and interview. To find out the results of the questionnaire, the researcher analyzed and collect the data that was collected based on the Likert scale level. Based on the results of the research in the findings section, it shows that the intensity of positive reinforcement given by the teacher to students of class X MAN 1 Makassar in the form of face-to-face learning is very high because the average score is 64.25 from the two meetings. In both meetings, here were 2 indicators of verbal reinforcement and 4 indicators of non-verbal reinforcement appeared. From the verbal side, reinforcement is in the form of the words: very good; good; smart; all right; good job, and the sentences: yes, very good answer; I am satisfied with your answer; and you succeeded, was given by the teacher at both meetings. While from the nonverbal side, reinforcement in the form of gestures (smiles, thumbs up, applause), contact (patches on the shoulder), activity (giving games), and tokens (additional points) were also given by the teacher. These results are relevant to previous research conducted by Pratiwi (2018) who found that the intensity of rewards given by teachers is included in the form of face-to-face learning. The result showed that students were highly motivated in learning English toward the positive reinforcements given by teacher since the result of the mean score was 58.9. This result is relevant to the statement of (Uno, 2016) "extrinsic motivation arises because of stimuli from outside the individual such as a teacher”. Also, it is supported by the statement that the main goals of using positive reinforcements in the learning activity is to encourage the students to repeat the good behavior that they have done and that would be useful evidence for them and also for the class (Sari, 2019). Based on several theories above, the researcher concluded that giving positive reinforcement is very important to encourage students to learn and attract attention so that they are more enthusiastic about learning. The teacher’s intensity in giving positive reinforcement was categorized into very high which resulted that students were highly motivated. It caused by the teacher’s awareness of their roles as the source of extrinsic motivation for the students. The teacher focused on giving positive reinforcement especially giving praise at every meeting and the additional score for students who actively participate in learning which it may improve students’ motivation.

Researcher used listening test and questionnaire as data collected technique. SPSS used to find out T-Test. According to (Rost, 1994) students are frequently listening monologue, dialogue and speech in the listening class. According to expert Researcher decided to make scene selection procedure in the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone scenes, which were the scene contained monologue, the scene contained dialogue and scene contained speech. The result of this research showed there was an improvement in students’ listening skill. The mean score of students’ listening test was increased from 51,82 to 75,64 and there was 0,002 numeral significance. Students’ responses using Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’ Stone scenes very well, enjoyed and got motivated. This research used film as media to improve students’ listening skills. In the research process, the researchers applied several treatments. In the treatment process, the researcher repeats the scenes repeatedly with the aim that students can listen clearly what the speaker said. Based on (Apriliany, L., & Hermiati, 2021) that films can be used as media in the classroom, the use of films as learning media can build emotions and have a positive impact on students. The limitation of this research are terms of the student population which can not be used as a general reference and the time in the research also limited. However, this research obtained a significant
improvement. The researcher hopes that future can conduct more specific for this research and this research able to used as media in learning. Based on data analysis, the pre-test score before treatment was 51,82 and the post-test score after treatment was 75,64. That means there is an increase in class XI students of SMA Al-Bayan Makassar by using Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone Scenes as a learning media to improve listening skill.

Learning English through Qur’an; Improving Students’ Vocabulary Analysis by Color Coding the Surah Ash-Shams’ Translation

Athiyyah Mutammimah — 2023-09-17

Authentic material is material taken directly from sources found in daily life that are not made for pedagogical purposes. Sumarsono (2018) has previously implemented the concept of authentic content for ELT. Since the Noble Qur'an has been translated carefully, he recommends a strategy for teaching and studying reading that uses the English translation of the Holy Qur'an as a trustworthy source of real learning materials. Methods and materials that are suitable for student circumstances are required to fulfill learning objectives, especially in ELT. Thus, students will put what they have learned into practice so that the learning process can be carried out well. This study was conducted to determine the effect of the color-coded text of surah Ash-Shams in improving students’ vocabulary analysis. The study was conducted by applying a descriptive quantitative method with a Pre-experimental design. In collecting the data, the researcher used written tests and questionnaires as research instruments. Written test which was pre-test and posttest aims at finding out students’ improvement in analyzing the vocabulary. While questionnaire was used to aim students’ responses about the color-coding method. The results of this study showed a significant increase in students’ vocabulary analysis after being treated with color coding translation of surah ash-shams, this is evidenced from the significance value of 0,017 is less than 0,05 where the mean score of the pre-test was 36.4 while the post-test was 52. It was also found that all students agreed that the use of the color coding method made it easier for them to sort and distinguish word classes. On the other hand, the use of the surah Ash-Shams’s translation is beneficial on the religious side where students can get closer and more familiar with the Qur’an. So this method is very suitable to be applied in ELT classes at Islamic-based educational institutions such as MTs, MTsN, Islamic Boarding Schools, and so on. Sumarsono (2019), the use of the English translation of the Holy Qur’an has two crucial roles, in the development of knowledge (students’ vocabulary analysis) which has been described previously, and also in the development of faith by reading the translation of the Holy Qur’an frequently which is a good deed. In vocabulary analysis, 8 parts of speech need to be analyzed that is verb, noun, adjective, pronoun, conjunction, adverb, interjection, and preposition. For the research to be effective in a short time, this research is limited to 4 parts of speech that is verb, noun, adjective, and pronoun. For future research, it is recommended to increase the intensity of meetings and use a higher-level population such as university students. Students’ vocabulary analysis improved by color coding the surah Ash-Shams’ translation. This can be proven from significance value of 0,017 is less than 0,05. In addition, it was found that most of the students gave positive responses to the use of the color coding method in analyzing vocabulary. The students agreed that it ease them in distinguishing the word classes. Students can more easily learn to read and highlight teaching materials with color coding.

Study on Government Agencies’ Initiatives for Halal Compliance and Food Safety in Brunei

Siti Majidah Rahim — 2023-09-17

The global halal industry has grown due to Muslim consumers’ preference for halal-certified goods, requiring comprehensive regulatory frameworks for authenticity and safety. Therefore, Brunei, a Southeast Asian nation, prioritizes halal compliance and food safety to ensure access to halal products and adherence to Shariah. Several related governmental entities, including the Halal Food Control Division (HFCD), Brunei Darussalam Food Authority (BDFA), and the Department of Scientific Services (DSS), oversee these initiatives. Being an Islamic nation, Brunei places a high priority on halal compliance and food safety to guarantee that its Muslim population has access to halal products and that every food consumed in the nation complies with Shariah requirements. Hence, this study examines the role of governmental bodies in ensuring halal produc integrity and food safety in Brunei. It analyzes HFCD, BDFA, and DSS’s effectiveness in ensuring halal compliance and food safety, providing insights into Brunei’s holistic strategy. For this study, a qualitative research design was used that involved a careful review of prior literature studies and the incorporation of supporting information acquired from dependable sources. It takes a diverse approach to ensuring halal compliance and food safety in Brunei, involving numerous government measures to make sure that goods, services, and procedures comply with Shariah. The functions and accountability of relevant organisations in Brunei that are relevant to halal compliance and food safety are listed in Table 1. HCFD, BDFA, and DSS effectively ensure halal standards compliance and food safety in Brunei Darussalam. HCFD investigates uncertified halal food imports, demonstrating dedication to upholding halal standards. They supervise meat processing operations, promoting halal certification and public awareness. Meanwhile, BDFA is involved in food safety consultation and initiatives, focusing on education and adherence to safe procedures. Whereas, DSS improves food safety through scientific analysis, rigorous laboratory services, and international standards, ensuring reliability and trustworthiness in Brunei Darussalam’s food safety regulations. Collaboration between HCFD, BDFA, and DSS is crucial for upholding halal compliance and food safety measures. Government agencies, including religious affairs, health, trade, and commerce, must work together to ensure comprehensive oversight and implementation. Their achievements in ensuring halal product integrity and food safety include robust regulatory infrastructure, educational projects, and implementing halal certification requirements.

Halal Sustainability: Assessing Community Perceptions on the Implementation of ‘No Plastic Bag Everyday’ Intervention as an Approach to Tackle Single-use Plastic usage in Brunei Darussalam

Nabilah Ulfah Mujib — 2023-09-17

Plastic waste, particularly single-use plastics, has been identified as one of the issues that the Government wish to tackle and resolve. Despite having the ‘No Plastic Bag Everyday’ (NPBE) initiative to eliminate single-use plastic in participating stores by 2019, Brunei Darussalam continues to produced 29 percent of plastic waste of some 229,496 tone of disposed landfills materials in 2021, making it as the second top waste composition in landfills. This study aimed to evaluate community perceptions on the implementation of the NPBE intervention, to minimize the dependency on the limited non-renewable resources and encouraging communities to improve the nature, environment, and plastic waste management as an approach to promote Halal Sustainability in Brunei Darussalam. A cross-sectional descriptive study design was conducted on 200 local Bruneians utilizing an online questionnaire through Google Forms, distributed via WhatsApp. Descriptive statistical analyses were performed using SPSS to describe the characteristics of the
respondents as well as their perceptions. The findings indicate that the participants responded a variety of justifications for their frequent usage of plastic bags. Although many respondents claimed they begin implementing NPBE, with a total of 149 (74.5%) mainly when shopping in large grocery stores, but majority (105 (52.5%)) of the respondents also stated that they use 5 to 10 disposable plastic bags, and 57 (28.5%) use more than 10 disposable plastic bags per week for different purposes. Accordingly, 168 (84.0%) responded that one-time plastics are cheap, 147 (73.5%) responded that plastic bags are light and convenient to use, 93 (46.5%) use them due to lack of alternatives. However, almost all respondents, 196 (98%) support NPBE implementation to reduce single-use plastic bags, 98 (49%) support a ban on single-use plastic bags, and 156 (78%) were willing to pay for alternative bags. In Brunei, plastic bags are the most often used plastic items, and this trend is rapidly expanding. The primary factors are the simplicity of single-use plastic and their accessibility for free or at a low price, as well as a lack of sustainable plastic bag alternatives. These disposable plastic bags wind up in public spaces, resulting in plastic pollution. However, the majority of research participants would cease to utilize single-use plastic bags if inexpensive substitute bags were offered. This encouragement promotes the use of more environmentally friendly and sustainable alternatives to plastic shopping bags. Brunei communities are aware of the environmental issues brought by the extensive usage of single-use plastic usage, as well as the waste they produce and the need for substitutes. They also recognized the NPBE implementation as a potential solution to curb plastic pollution in Brunei Darussalam. However, until inexpensive and eco-friendly alternatives are offered, it will continue to provide serious environmental difficulties.

Jakarta Air Pollution

Andi Fajaruddin — 2023-09-17

The declining air quality in the capital city of Jakarta is currently deeply concerning. Besides disrupting daily activities, it also poses health risks and diseases for both the local population and all of Indonesia. In addition to natural factors, human activities play a pivotal role in this case, with vehicle emissions and industrial manufacturing ranking as the top contributors to air pollution. According to the statement by the Minister of Environment and Forestry (LHK) Siti Nurbaya, motorized vehicles are the leading cause of air pollution. In her records, there were 24.5 million motorized vehicles in 2022, with 19.2 million of them being motorcycles. The potential health impacts on humans include respiratory problems, heart complications, and hypertension. In addition to the scarcity of green spaces, a lack of public awareness is a significant factor contributing to this issue. Rampant development by the government, often at the expense of green areas, has left some regions barren. This, in turn, makes them susceptible to natural disasters when they occur. The importance of awareness in such a situation is the key to minimizing the pollution levels in Jakarta. Implementing restrictions on private vehicle use, promoting public transportation, and expanding green spaces can be reliable and guaranteed solutions in this regard.

Sindi Antika — 2023-09-17

Indonesia is a country where the majority of the population is Muslim. This can actually be a potential for Indonesia to develop the halal product industry, especially in the food sector. Halal food is food that does not contain elements or items that are haram or prohibited for consumption by Muslims, both regarding food raw materials, food additives and other supporting materials, including food ingredients processed through genetic engineering and food irradiation processes. Halal food is a food product that has been declared halal in accordance with Islamic law. The forms can vary from animals, fruit, vegetables and other plants, unless there is a hadith or explanation in the Koran that explains the prohibition. The halal food process includes providing ingredients, processing, storing, packaging, distributing,selling and serving products. Halal food products must be protected from contamination with unclean things, such as faeces, urine or other substances considered unclean in Islam and accompanied by good food safety. Food safety is the conditions and efforts needed to prevent food from possible three contaminants, namely biological, chemical and other contaminants that can disturb, harm and endanger human health and do not conflict with religion, belief and community culture. In the current era, there are many foods that are popular with the public but their halal qualities are ignored. Based on several studies, among the factors that influence consumer halal awareness are: trust and religiosity, identity, marketing components, and halal guarantee labels. This research tries to look at a number of factors that influence halal awareness and the development of halal products from a food safety perspective in urban communities. For this reason, high security is needed, so that Muslim communities in Indonesia consume halal food products, considering that Indonesia has the largest Muslim population in the world who should be the leading halal industry developer.
