The legal mechanism of bankruptcy relies on the concept of debt, because the absence of debt undermines the fundamental purpose of bankruptcy as a legal institution to liquidate the debtor's assets to satisfy creditors' claims. Debt is the main criterion that must be met in order to be able to apply for bankruptcy, along with additional provisions such as having two or more creditors, as stipulated in Article 2, paragraph (1) of Law Number 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and Suspension of Debt Payment Obligations (Bankruptcy Law). Notaries who have completed the bankruptcy process and are undergoing rehabilitation to improve their good name cannot re-apply to become Notaries. Here, the Notary will lose his/her right to work to carry out his/her position simply because the Notary has or has been sentenced to bankruptcy by the court. This bankruptcy is simply the notary's inability to pay the debt owed to the creditor, not a criminal act. If associated with the provisions contained in the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, namely Article 28 letter d concerning Human Rights which explains that everyone has the right to work and receive fair and proper compensation and treatment in employment relations, the efforts made in this problem are handled in accordance with the law and will be a substantial obligation for the curator. Based on Article 1 number 5 (Law Number 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and Suspension of Debt Payment Obligations), it states that a curator is an individual or an estate office appointed by the court to resolve and manage all problems of the bankrupt debtor's assets under the supervision of a supervising judge based on applicable laws. The citation of the law shows the clear jurisdiction of the curator over the debtor's property and assets.

Solving electrical circuits often requires finding solutions to systems of linear equations, which are derived from fundamental laws like The laws of Kirchhoff and Ohm's law. In this study, two widely known numerical methods are used to solve these systems, Gaussian elimination and matrix inversion. Both methods are applied to the linear equations that represent the electrical circuit network. MATLAB is used to model and solve the circuits with these techniques, making the calculations more efficient and accurate. By employing both methods, we can solve systems of equations for various circuit configurations, determining the voltage and current values for each component. The results demonstrate that both methods are reliable and fast, providing valuable insights for electrical engineering and circuit analysis.

The integration of machine learning (ML) into English language teaching is gaining traction due to its potential to support personalized learning and increase student engagement. However, its implementation presents critical challenges. Many educators lack the pedagogical training needed to use ML tools effectively, such as adaptive learning platforms and automated assessment systems. Institutional approaches often remain fragmented and reactive, offering limited support, vague curricular links, and few opportunities for collaboration. Ethical concerns—such as data privacy, algorithmic bias, and diminished teacher autonomy—further complicate the adoption process. This study employs a qualitative library research method to examine recent literature on ML in English education and teacher preparation. Results emphasize the need for inclusive training strategies, including blended learning, mentorship, and AI-focused modules, that enable teachers to use ML tools thoughtfully and ethically. Yet these efforts are still limited in reach, highlighting the importance of systemic reforms that ensure ethical and equitable ML integration across diverse educational contexts.

This study raises the theme of Theology of Faith Based on Proverbs 3:1–8 in an effort to strengthen the spiritual life of the members of the Indonesian Protestant Christian Church (GKPI) Pandumaan Special Congregation amidst the challenges of the modern era. Proverbs 3:1–8 teaches important theological principles about living a strong faith, living in wisdom, faithfulness, and fearing God. Through qualitative and quantitative approaches, this study found that many church members experience wavering faith due to the influence of secular culture, technological advances, and social pressures. This study interprets Proverbs 3:1–8 as a call to trust God with all our hearts, not to lean on our own understanding, and to live in real loyalty and goodness. Wisdom in this context is understood not only as rational intelligence, but also as the result of total submission to God's will. This study emphasizes that strong faith is the foundation for a healthy and strong spiritual life amidst today's pluralism and spiritual crisis. Thus, faith rooted in the word and wisdom of God becomes a theological solution for church members to remain firm as the light and salt of the world.

Political debates are one of the main elements in the flow of democracy in various countries, including Indonesia. In the context of the general election held by presidential and vice presidential candidates in 2024, the 5th debate is a crucial moment in the political campaign. This study aims to analyze the various communication patterns carried out by each presidential and vice presidential candidate pair in the 5th debate in 2024. The content analysis method is used to identify and analyze the communication methods used by the candidate pairs. Data were obtained from debate transcriptions and analyzed qualitatively to reveal communication patterns, including word choice, speaking style, use of rhetoric, framing, and argumentation strategies. The results of the study show variations in communication patterns between candidate pairs. Each candidate pair uses different communication strategies in their efforts to influence public opinion. Differences in the use of language, rhetoric, and message focus were found between the candidate pairs, reflecting differences in their campaign strategies. This study contributes to the understanding of the dynamics of political communication in the context of political debates in Indonesia. The results of the analysis can provide valuable insights into the understanding of political communication strategies in the democratic process, and provide a foundation for subsequent researchers in this scientific field.

Ships as the main mode of transportation that has a strategic role in trade transportation, the trade supply chain really needs proper operations. The operational of the ship is greatly influenced by the performance of the main engine. One of the critical components of the main engine is the exhaust valve which functions to regulate the release of exhaust gas from the combustion chamber to the exhaust manifold. The research is qualitative, collecting data through observation, documentation, and interviews. The event tree analysis (ETA) method is implemented the sequence of impacts produced by exhaust valve, such as high working temperatures, low engine performance, and standard functions described in the manual book so that leaks can be identified. So, From this analysis, the impacts that are traced sequentially to the performance of the exhaust valve itself can also be found. In addition, a fishbone diagram is used to describe the factors that cause leaks, including human error, managerial deficiencies, neglected inspections, and errors in maintenance techniques. Thus, the right handling can be found to overcome exhaust valve leaks, such as repairs required while the engine is stopped, repeated spare part submissions from ship management, conducting spindle thickness inspections, and improving maintenance techniques as specified in the engine manual book. Proper and effective preventive and handling actions based on the root causes outlined are essential to ensure proper operation of the machine.

Faith crisis is one of the psychological and spiritual challenges faced by university students during their identity-seeking phase.
