The increasing demand for electrical energy and the issue of climate change are driving the utilization of renewable energy, one of which is through Solar Power Plants (PLTS). The Province of Bali targets the development of PLTS of 108.2 MW, equivalent to 8.62% of the total solar energy potential of 1,254 MW by 2025. However, land limitations pose an obstacle to the construction of large-scale PLTS. Floating solar power plant design can be a solution to this issue. By utilizing 4,955.32 m² of water surface at the Telaga Tunjung Dam, the Floating Solar Power Plant at Telaga Tunjung Dam has a potential capacity of 141.4 kWp, using 280 Trina Solar modules of type TSM-DEG18MC.20(II) (505 Wp) combined with one SG110CX inverter with a capacity of 110 kW. The annual electricity production of the floating solar power plant, based on Helioscope software, is 201.1 MWh. The economic feasibility parameters used in this study include initial investment cost, Profitability Index (PI), and Payback Period (PP). The analysis results show that the 141.4 kWp floating solar power plant project at Telaga Tunjung Dam has an initial investment value of IDR 1,248,764,582, a PI of 1.26, and a PP of 3.91 years. Therefore, this project is considered economically feasible and contributes positively to reducing CO₂ emissions.

The Family Welfare Empowerment (PKK) is a community organization that plays a vital role in improving family welfare in Indonesia. Through various programs, the PKK contributes to family empowerment, particularly in education, health, and economics. However, many PKK activities are still conducted manually, including recording and managing member data and activities. This creates several challenges, such as difficulty in archiving, time-consuming information searches, and difficulties in preparing accurate and timely reports. This research aims to design and develop a web-based information system that can simplify member data management, activity recording, attendance management, and report generation more quickly, efficiently, and accurately. This system will be designed using an object-oriented approach, involving several stages, starting from needs analysis, system design, implementation, and system testing. This information system is expected to improve service efficiency, facilitate PKK administrators in monitoring member activity, and support a more precise and weighted data-based decision-making process. Another advantage is that this system will also facilitate the PKK in producing faster, more comprehensive, and more structured activity reports, thereby increasing organizational transparency and accountability. Therefore, this web-based information system is expected to be a solution to improve the PKK's performance in carrying out its function of empowering family welfare.

This study aims to systematically review the literature that explores the relationship between blockchain technology and economic value, focusing on three main dimensions: financial efficiency, financial inclusion, and systemic risk. The systematic literature review method was employed to identify, evaluate, and synthesize findings from various academic studies and relevant industry reports. The review process involved analyzing articles obtained from scientific databases such as Scopus and Google Scholar, published between 2020 and 2025. The results indicate that the implementation of blockchain technology has significant potential to enhance financial efficiency through transaction cost reduction, increased transparency, and faster settlement processes across financial systems. Furthermore, blockchain can promote financial inclusion by providing access to financial services for populations previously excluded from the conventional financial system. However, the study also reveals that blockchain adoption poses potential systemic risks, including market instability, cybersecurity vulnerabilities, and complex regulatory challenges. Therefore, the findings emphasize the importance of developing balanced policies and regulatory frameworks to maximize the economic benefits of blockchain technology while minimizing its potential risks.

Islamic economics is an economic system based on the principles of the Qur’an and the Sunnah, with the aim of providing benefit (maslahah) for humanity. Conceptually, Islamic economics is fixed, but in practice, depending on certain situations and conditions, it may change or be applied more broadly. The main principles of Islamic economics consist of four elements: tawhid (monotheism), balance, freedom of will, and responsibility. Production is not only about creating goods from materials that do not exist, but also about producing goods that are useful and beneficial. The goal of production is to achieve happiness in both the worldly life and the hereafter, based on the principles of maqasid al-shariah. Production must be in accordance with Islamic values, so that it does not conflict with the protection of religion, life, intellect, lineage, and wealth. Production priorities should follow basic needs, secondary needs, and complementary needs, while taking into account justice and social aspects such as zakat and charity. Production must be carried out optimally, and the results should be distributed fairly among owners, managers, administrators, and workers. Factors of production such as natural resources, labor, capital, management, technology, and raw materials are also inseparable from the production process.

The goal of the current study was to identify the motifs found in the pertinent empirical literature. Following a thorough review of the literature, the current study found that globalization has affected the employment rate, exacerbated gender disparities, and altered trade and employment in the labor market. Additionally, the study found that FDI has several significant impacts on sectorial employment, employment productivity, employment in the private sector, and employment creation. The study also showed that the mixed impacts of remittances on labor and employment vary across economies. In a similar vein, it has been demonstrated that trade openness influences employment shifts. Furthermore, the analysis highlights that technological advancement, often accelerated by globalization, contributes to labor market polarization by increasing the demand for high-skilled workers while reducing opportunities for low-skilled labor. The study emphasizes that while globalization offers opportunities for economic growth, it also poses challenges in achieving inclusive and equitable employment. Therefore, effective policy measures are required to balance trade liberalization, foreign investment inflows, and domestic labor protection. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of how globalization shapes employment dynamics and economic structures, offering insights for policymakers aiming to promote sustainable labor market development.

This article analyzes the fundamental differences between the mechanisms of fund collection and fund distribution in Islamic banks and conventional banks in Indonesia, based on DSN-MUI Fatwas and banking regulations. In general, both types of banks serve the same function—to collect and distribute funds to support economic activities. However, the main distinction lies in their operational principles. Conventional banks operate using a fixed interest system, establishing a creditor–debtor relationship. In contrast, Islamic banks operate based on Sharia principles that prohibit riba (usury). In fund collection, conventional banks use interest-based savings and deposit products, while Islamic banks apply Wadiah (safekeeping) and Mudharabah (profit-sharing investment) contracts. Regarding fund distribution, conventional banks provide interest-bearing loans, whereas Islamic banks offer financing through Sharia contracts such as Murabahah (cost-plus sale), Musyarakah (partnership), Mudharabah (profit-sharing), and Ijarah (leasing), emphasizing cooperation and risk-sharing. Although Islamic banking is regulated under Law No. 21 of 2008 and DSN-MUI Fatwas, it still faces several challenges, including the dominance of Murabahah financing and the low level of public literacy regarding Islamic financial systems.

Sharia-based Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a strategic role in supporting national economic growth and developing a competitive halal value chain, yet they still face challenges such as limited digital literacy, restricted access to halal certification, and insufficient marketing strategies aligned with sharia principles. This study aims to analyze the readiness of Sharia MSMEs in utilizing e-commerce platforms as a medium for halal product marketing through a systematic literature review of 50 articles from accredited national journals and reputable international publications. The findings reveal that Sharia MSME readiness is influenced by internal factors, including digital literacy, halal certification, branding strategies, and sharia compliance, as well as external factors such as government policies, digital ecosystem support, and consumer trust. The study highlights the importance of accelerating halal certification, strengthening human resource capacity, and implementing value-based marketing strategies to enhance competitiveness. The implications suggest that synergy among MSMEs, government, and digital platform providers is essential to create an inclusive and sustainable halal ecosystem, enabling Sharia MSMEs to compete effectively in both local and global markets.

This study explores the issue of misallocated zakat distribution at BAZNAS Cilegon, emphasizing the significance of trustworthiness (amanah) and accountability within the Islamic framework. Zakat serves not only as an act of worship but also as a socio-economic instrument designed to reduce inequality and improve community welfare. However, in practice, its distribution often encounters obstacles, particularly regarding transparency and the accuracy of targeting beneficiaries. Employing a qualitative approach with a library research method, this study analyzes scholarly journals, books, and official reports relevant to the topic. The findings reveal that weak beneficiary data collection, insufficient verification processes, and limited monitoring mechanisms contribute to zakat being distributed to unintended recipients. The suspected misuse of zakat funds at BAZNAS Cilegon highlights the urgent need for trustworthy and transparent governance supported by modern management systems. The implications of this study suggest that strengthening monitoring systems, implementing regular sharia-based audits, utilizing digital technology for data integration, and enforcing strict sanctions against negligent or dishonest amil are crucial steps to rebuild public trust. Ultimately, zakat can only achieve its dual function as a form of worship and as an instrument of social justice when managed with integrity, transparency, and professionalism.

The principle of "Al-Umuru Bi Maqasidiha," meaning "everything depends on its purpose," is one of the main principles of Islamic law that plays a crucial role in Islamic economic practices. This research aims to outline the meaning, legal basis, branches, and application of this principle in modern economic activities. The method used is a literature review, examining the Quran, Hadith, the opinions of scholars, and contemporary studies related to Islamic economics. The results of the study indicate that intention is a key factor in determining the validity or invalidity of an act, both in worship and transactions. This principle is relevant to addressing contemporary transaction developments, such as Islamic banking, fintech, and digital investment instruments, by emphasizing objectives aligned with the maqasid al-shariah (Islamic principles). The evolving branches of this principle emphasize the role of intention in distinguishing between custom and worship, establishing the validity of contracts, and transforming permissible activities into acts of worship. Its application in Islamic economics encompasses transaction contracts, asset management (mal), and Islamic banking practices, all of which are directed toward achieving benefits and preventing harm. In conclusion, the principle of Al-Umuru Bi Maqasidiha (The Principle of Proper Conduct and the Principle of Good Conduct) is highly urgent in building an Islamic economic system that is just, imbued with integrity, and oriented toward blessings.

This study examines the legal protection regarding the cancellation of unused trademarks through a case study of the Supreme Court Decision No. 264 K/Pdt.Sus-HKI/2015 between IKEA Systems BV and PT Ratania Khatulistiwa. Trademarks play a vital role in modern trade, functioning not only as product identities but also as guarantees of quality and reputation with significant economic value. Law No. 15 of 2001 stipulates that a trademark may be cancelled if it is not used for three consecutive years, aiming to prevent speculative practices and pseudo-monopolies. However, this provision raises issues when applied to well-known trademarks that require longer periods to penetrate domestic markets. Using a literature review approach, this research analyzes legal norms, doctrines, and court decisions, while comparing them with international practices. The findings reveal that Indonesian law prioritizes the use requirement principle over the global reputation of a trademark. The Supreme Court’s decision to cancel the IKEA trademark demonstrates Indonesia’s legal orientation towards domestic legal certainty, yet it also creates challenges in maintaining a conducive investment climate. Therefore, trademark regulations need to be reformed to become more adaptive to globalization dynamics while balancing the interests of trademark owners, local businesses, consumers, and the state.

This research aims to analyze the optimization of digital marketing in increasing the competitiveness of Bank Jateng, formulate the main challenges in the implementation of digital-based public service innovations, and develop an integration strategy between digital marketing and public service innovation to strengthen the role of Bank Jateng in regional economic development. The research method used was descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through interviews with 11 informants and distribution of questionnaires to 96 respondents. The results of the study show that digital marketing optimization is able to increase competitiveness through integrated strategies between divisions, increasing content creativity, and strengthening analytics systems for performance evaluation.

The strategy of integrating digital marketing and public services requires a holistic approach through organizational capacity building, financial performance optimization, market reach expansion, and continuous innovation. Collaboration between divisions and strong leadership is key in supporting financial inclusion and regional economic growth. This research provides strategic recommendations for Bank Jateng in facing the increasingly dynamic competition of the banking industry in the digital era.

The agricultural sector plays a crucial role in supporting the livelihoods and economic stability of Indonesian society, particularly within the Pademawu community. Indonesia’s vast agrarian landscape and strong reliance on agriculture have shaped various local traditions and cooperative systems among farmers. One such system is the muzara’ah agreement, a form of agricultural profit-sharing partnership between landowners and cultivators. This research focuses on the implementation of the Paron La’as agreement, a traditional form of muzara’ah practiced by the Pademawu community, which reflects both economic cooperation and Islamic legal principles. The study employs a qualitative approach using a field research design to collect descriptive data through interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings reveal that the Paron La’as system is conducted in accordance with the principles of Islamic law governing muzara’ah contracts, particularly in terms of fairness, mutual consent, and proportional profit distribution between landowners and farmers. Moreover, the study highlights how this cooperative practice not only strengthens economic ties within the community but also preserves local wisdom and social harmony. Therefore, the Paron La’as model demonstrates an effective integration of Islamic economic values with traditional agricultural systems, serving as a sustainable example of community-based agricultural cooperation in Indonesia.

This research aims to analyze the relevance of applying restorative justice in resolving counterfeiting cases committed by children, by examining the normative, juridical, and practical aspects within Indonesia’s juvenile criminal justice system. The background of this study arises from the dilemma between protecting the rights of children as offenders and the state’s obligation to maintain economic stability and public trust in the national currency. The research method employed is juridical-descriptive with a normative approach,. The implementation of restorative justice can still safeguard public interests, provided it involves relevant institutions such as Bank Indonesia and produces measurable recovery agreements. Thus, restorative justice serves as an alternative approach that balances child protection and legal certainty, while also contributing to the prevention of counterfeit money circulation in society.

Poverty in the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) remains a significant issue despite a decline in poverty rates in recent years. This study aims to identify the factors influencing poverty in DIY from social, economic, and structural perspectives, as well as to evaluate policies that can address this issue. The method used in this research is a literature review through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), examining various relevant sources on poverty in DIY and the poverty alleviation policies implemented in the region. The results of the study indicate that poverty in DIY is caused by several main factors, such as income inequality, low-quality education, low skill levels among the population, and limited access to business capital and productive resources. One policy that has proven effective in reducing poverty is the provision of access to capital and productive resources through microcredit schemes and agrarian reform. These programs not only provide capital but also enhance the ability of the poor to manage their businesses. These findings offer important insights into understanding poverty in DIY and suggest that policies supporting the empowerment of the poor through education, skills, and economic access can be an effective solution to reduce poverty in the long term..

Digital transformation and sustainability demands are driving the need for the integration of E-HRM and Green HRM to achieve sustainable organizational performance. This integration serves as a solution to the challenges of resource efficiency, carbon footprint reduction, and enhanced employee engagement in the digital era. This research aims to analyse the role of E-HRM in enhancing Green HRM practices and its impact on sustainable organizational performance. The research methodology employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), utilising the Scopus database, with selection based on inclusion-exclusion criteria, data extraction, and thematic analysis of selected journals. The anticipated impact of E-HRM is its support for Green HRM through the digitalization of HR processes that reduce resource usage, the establishment of digital platforms for environmental awareness, and data-driven impact measurement. The integration of both significantly enhances sustainable performance across three dimensions: environmental (a 20-30% reduction in carbon footprint), economic (15-25% cost savings), and social (30-40% increase in employee engagement). Key implementation factors include technological readiness, management commitment, and alignment with ESG strategies. This research contributes a conceptual framework for the integration of E-HRM and Green HRM, along with practical recommendations for achieving sustainable competitive advantage in the digital age.

This research analyzes the business licensing process for plywood products at PT Anugerah Albasia Abadi Talun, Blitar Regency. It aims to identify the processes undertaken, the obstacles encountered, and to provide recommendations. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach and the Triple Bottom Line framework, data was collected through interviews, observation, and documentation studies. The research findings indicate that the company has successfully fulfilled all complex formal licensing requirements, including the Business Identification Number (NIB), Industrial Business License (IUI), Timber Legality Verification Sistem(SVLK) certificate, Environmental Management and Monitoring Efforts (UKL-UPL), and Forest Product Transportation and Trading License (IPHH), demonstrating a commitment to regulatory compliance. Nevertheless, the licensing process is still hampered by the disharmony between the digital Online Single Submission (OSS) system and manual practices, dynamic regulatory changes that are not yet widely disseminated, limited internal human resource capacity, and a lack of harmonization and coordination among government agencies. The Triple Bottom Line analysis reveals that licensing legality supports economic competitiveness and market access, while social aspects are well-established through local job creation and CSR programs. However, environmental management remains administrative and not yet fully performance-based. Therefore, the research recommendations focus on strengthening internal capacity, optimizing the OSS system, developing proactive environmental management, and enhancing continuous community involvement to achieve higher operational efficiency and sustainability
