The results of this study can be recommended in the evaluation and optimisation of tele-transmitting station networks.

The digital design of cultural museums with an interactive and educational approach in Indramayu Regency aims to present a modern, innovative, and interesting cultural preservation space. This concept was born from the urgent need for a means that are able to preserve, document, and promote local cultural wealth in the midst of the rapid flow of globalization. The lack of cultural literacy among the public, especially the younger generation, as well as the loss of historical objects due to inadequate storage facilities, are the main reasons for the importance of developing digital-based museums. Through an interactive approach, visitors can actively engage with cultural collections using advanced technologies such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and interactive multimedia. This technology provides an immersive, engaging, and personalized learning experience, so that visitors not only see, but also virtually experience the richness of the culture on display. Meanwhile, the educational approach is designed to create an informative, collaborative, and fun learning environment, which is highly relevant for learners and the younger generation as the successors of cultural preservation. Indramayu Regency, known for its long history, maritime traditions, and distinctive coastal culture, has great potential to become a center for cultural education. This digital museum will utilize digital technology to document cultural narratives in depth, so that it can be accessed not only by local people, but also national and international tourists. With its strategic location in the city center, the presence of this museum is expected to encourage the participation of the public and tourists in understanding, appreciating, and preserving the local culture of Indramayu. Apart from being an educational facility, this museum is expected to be able to become a driver of local tourism that makes a positive contribution to the economy of the surrounding community. Digital cultural museums are not only a place for preservation, but also a symbol of a strong regional identity, reflecting the synergy between technological innovation and commitment to cultural sustainability in the modern era.

Community Health Centers (Puskesmas) serve as primary healthcare facilities with a strategic role in delivering quality services and adequate infrastructure to the public. However, patient complaints are still frequently found, particularly concerning suboptimal service aspects such as unprofessional staff attitudes and uncomfortable waiting areas. This study aims to examine the relationship between service quality and facilities on patient satisfaction at Puskesmas Selogiri, Wonogiri Regency. The research employed a quantitative associative method with a survey approach. A total of 100 respondents were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using the Spearman Rank test due to the non-normal distribution of the data. The findings revealed a very strong and positive correlation between service quality and patient satisfaction, with a correlation coefficient of 0.906. Similarly, facilities also showed a strong and significant relationship with patient satisfaction, with a correlation coefficient of 0.850. These results imply the importance of improving service interaction quality and providing comfortable facilities to enhance positive patient experiences and strengthen public trust in the services delivered by Puskesmas.  

The phenomenon of homelessness and begging in public places remains a complex social problem that impacts public order and legal norms. The main problem in this study is how criminal law is applied to homelessness and begging in public places, and how the provisions compare in the old Criminal Code and the new Criminal Code based on Law Number 1 of 2023. This study uses a normative juridical method with a legislative approach and literature study. In the old Criminal Code, begging is regulated in Article 504, which threatens imprisonment for anyone who begs in public. Meanwhile, the new Criminal Code regulates similar acts in Article 425, which no longer uses the term "begging" explicitly, but regulates the prohibition against the repeated exploitation of certain activities in public places that disturb the community. The results of the study show that although there is continuity in substance, the new Criminal Code tends to use a more humanistic approach and emphasizes social rehabilitation. Law enforcement against homelessness and begging still faces various obstacles such as low public reporting, limited police supervision, and a lack of rehabilitation facilities. Therefore, the main conclusion of this study is that a repressive approach alone is insufficiently effective. An integrated legal strategy is needed, combining penal and non-penal approaches with the active involvement of the government, the community, and social institutions.

The special autonomy granted to Aceh Province allows for the implementation of Islamic criminal law (jinayat), yet challenges remain in law enforcement, particularly against corporations that provide facilities for Jarimah. Despite the enactment of Qanun Number 6 of 2014 on Hukum Jinayat, prosecutions have largely focused on individuals, while companies such as hotels, boarding houses, and cafés frequently escape accountability, even when their facilities are used to commit acts such as khalwat, maisir, and zina. This study aims to examine the enforcement mechanisms targeting such corporate entities within the jurisdiction of Banda Aceh City. Employing empirical legal research methods, the study utilizes qualitative analysis based on field observations, interviews with stakeholders, and a review of legal documents. The findings indicate that law enforcement efforts are hampered by five major factors: vague and incomplete legal provisions; limited knowledge and training among investigators; inadequate human resources and supporting infrastructure; a lack of public support; and deeply rooted cultural practices that often favor informal resolutions over formal prosecution. Despite the legal possibility of corporate liability under the qanun, enforcement remains weak due to unclear definitions, particularly concerning intent and the element of facilitation. The study concludes that the effectiveness of law enforcement in this domain is critically undermined by structural and normative deficiencies. Therefore, reform is urgently needed, including amendments to legal texts, comprehensive investigator training, and public engagement strategies to ensure corporate accountability in supporting the implementation of syari’at Islam in Aceh.

Village digitalization is one of the village government transformation strategies in providing fast, transparent, and easily accessible services to the community. Through the use of village websites, village governments strive to accelerate administrative processes, disseminate public information, and strengthen community participation. The methods used in this community service activity are participatory and collaborative. The results of the activity evaluation show that the implementation of digitalization in Sungai Baung Village has had a positive impact on the efficiency of service time, increased access to information, and community involvement in village development. However, challenges such as limited human resources, internet infrastructure, and community digital literacy are still obstacles that need to be overcome. Therefore, ongoing efforts are needed in training and mentoring, provision of digital facilities, and collaboration between parties to ensure the success of village digitalization as a whole.

The phenomenon of homelessness and begging in public places remains a complex social problem and has an impact on public disclosure and legal norms. The main problem in this study is how the criminal law against homelessness and begging in public places, and how the calculation of its provisions in the old Criminal Code and the new Criminal Code based on Law Number 1 of 2023. This study uses a normative juridical method with a regulatory-statutory approach and literature study. In the old Criminal Code, the act of begging is regulated in Article 504 which threatens imprisonment for anyone who begs in public. Meanwhile, the new Criminal Code regulates similar acts in Article 425 which no longer uses the term "begging" explicitly, but regulates the prohibition against the repeated exploitation of certain activities in public places that disturb the community. The results of the study show that despite substantial continuity, the new Criminal Code tends to use a more humanistic approach and emphasizes social rehabilitation. Law enforcement against homelessness and begging still faces various obstacles such as low public reporting, limited supervision by officials, and minimal rehabilitation facilities. Therefore, the main conclusion of this study is that a repressive approach alone is insufficiently effective. An integrated legal strategy is needed, combining penal and non-penal approaches, with the active involvement of the government, the community, and social institutions.

This study contributes to broadening understanding of the practical benefits of implementing the use of the Si Lancar application at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Ciamis Regency.

Street crime is a conventional crime that occurs in public spaces and disturbs people's sense of security. The National Police of the Republic of Indonesia has an important role in dealing with this crime through preventive, preemptive, and repressive strategies. This article uses a descriptive qualitative approach based on a literature study. The results of the analysis show that the effectiveness of the police force is influenced by the availability of resources, community participation, and cross-sectoral coordination. Efforts such as Operation Cipta Condition have proven to be able to reduce the crime rate, but there are still obstacles such as a lack of personnel and technological facilities. Therefore, a multidimensional approach that involves the support of the government, the community, and strengthening the criminal justice system is key to tackling street crime effectively and sustainably.

Enterobius vermicularis, or pinworm, continues to be a public health concern, particularly among children in coastal and densely populated areas. Though it is classified as a non-Soil Transmitted Helminth (non-STH), its fecal-oral transmission route allows rapid spread, especially where hygiene practices are inconsistent. In Indonesian coastal communities such as Lasiana, Kupang, limited studies have focused on the intersection between environmental factors, personal hygiene, and parental knowledge in relation to enterobiasis. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and morphological characteristics of Enterobius vermicularis in children aged 3–9 years living in the coastal area of Lasiana Beach, Kupang. A descriptive observational study was conducted involving 81 heads of households and 24 children as research participants. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to parents to assess sanitation conditions, hygiene practices, and knowledge levels. Perianal samples were obtained from the children using the clear tape (scotch tape) method and examined microscopically to identify E. vermicularis eggs. Findings revealed that 21% of the children tested positive for E. vermicularis. The eggs displayed typical morphological features—oval shape with one flattened side and a transparent double-layered shell. Despite most respondents reporting good hygiene behavior and environmental sanitation, cases of infection persisted. Limited access to handwashing facilities and dense housing conditions were identified as contributing risk factors. The presence of Enterobius vermicularis infections despite adequate sanitation and knowledge highlights a gap between awareness and effective daily practices. These findings underscore the need for strengthened community-based health education and consistent monitoring in high-risk coastal areas to prevent enterobiasis among children.
