Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) is an infectious disease that often affects the upper and lower respiratory tract. This disease is one of the main causes of death in children under five, especially in areas with less favourable environmental conditions. This study aims to map the distribution of ARI in Central Java Province using the K-Means clustering method. Through data analysis that includes inputting, transforming, processing, and visualisation, this study successfully identified three clusters of areas with different levels of ARI distribution. Cluster 0 indicates areas with low risk, such as Demak and Semarang Regency, Cluster 1 indicates areas with medium risk, such as Klaten, Magelang Regency, Pati, while cluster 2 indicates areas with high risk, including Semarang City and Surakarta City. The results of this analysis are presented as a map using QGIS to spatially visualise the distribution of ARI across Central Java. Thus, local governments can design more effective and targeted ARI prevention and control strategies.

The process of Islam entering the archipelago has a long and interesting history to study. It is estimated that Islam entered the archipelago in the 7th century AD to the 13th century AD. The process of Islamization in the archipelago took place peacefully, where its spread emphasized the spiritual and ethical aspects of life, so that society could accept it well. The routes used were also very diverse, ranging from trade, marriage, politics to art and culture. In addition to these routes, the spread of Islam was also supported by the role of Islamic kingdoms such as the Samudra Pasai Kingdom, the Aceh Kingdom to the Demak Kingdom. With various routes and roles of the kingdom, Islam developed and took root in the archipelago. However, when Islam actually entered the archipelago is still a question to this day. These theories have historical evidence that supports their opinions, so that various theories have developed that explain the beginning of Islam entering the archipelago. These theories include the Gujarat Theory, the Arab Theory, the Persian Theory and the Chinese Theory.

The Majapahit Surya Ornament is an ornament in the form of a sun decoration with a circular center and the outermost part forming the rays of the sun. The center is circular and has been divided into eight rooms with one room on the middle side. The Majapahit Surya Ornament is found in the Trowulan Museum and the Great Mosque of Demak.

This study uses a three-form cultural approach: ideas, activities, and artifacts to analyze the transformation of ornaments in terms of philosophical meaning, social function, and physical form. The results of the study show that in the Trowulan Museum, this ornament is maintained in its original form to symbolize harmony and divine power, while in the Great Mosque of Demak, this ornament has undergone modifications in meaning and technique according to Islamic-Javanese values. This finding reveals the process of harmonious cultural acculturation between Hindu-Buddhist and Islam in Java, while also emphasizing the relevance of the Majapahit Surya ornament as a symbol of the rich and dynamic cultural heritage of the archipelago.

The conflict involving Armed Criminal Groups (KKB) in Papua presents a serious dilemma between law enforcement and the protection of human rights. On one hand, KKB’s actions—such as attacks on civilians and security personnel—are classified as gross human rights violations, posing threats to national security and obstructing regional development. On the other hand, law enforcement efforts by state authorities are often criticized for alleged human rights abuses, especially in military operations that may involve excessive use of force. This study aims to analyze the conflict from both legal and human rights perspectives using a normative juridical approach. The analysis is based on relevant legal frameworks, including the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and Law Number 39 of 1999 concerning Human Rights. The article proposes strategic measures to achieve a balanced resolution, such as inclusive dialogue with Papuan communities, human rights-based training for security forces, independent oversight of security operations, and adherence to humanitarian principles. These approaches are expected to foster stability and peace while ensuring the protection of human rights. Ultimately, this study emphasizes that the resolution of the Papua conflict must not rely solely on repressive measures but must also prioritize justice, humanity, and long-term sustainability.
