ABSTRACT Background: Traditional medicinal plants play a significant role in public health in Indonesia, particularly in Bali, where the local wisdom of Usada is upheld. One of the commonly used plants is sandalwood (Santalum album L.), which is empirically believed to treat skin issues and minor injuries. Purpose: This study aimed to examine the community's perceptions of sandalwood in Perean Tengah Village using the HBM approach. Method: A qualitative method with an ethnographic study design was employed, and five informants (four sandalwood users and one traditional healer) were purposively selected. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation, and they were analyzed thematically using NVIVO software. Results: The results indicated that the community recognizes their susceptibility to minor injuries resulting from daily physical activities and uses sandalwood as a form of first aid. Sandalwood is perceived as beneficial because it provides a cooling sensation, reduces pain and swelling, and is considered safe and practical for use. However, the main barriers to its use include the limited availability of sandalwood in the local area and reliance on supplies from other regions. Conclusion: The tradition of using sandalwood is preserved through intergenerational practices and positive personal experiences. This study emphasizes the significance of sandalwood for health applications, cultural identity, and the local wisdom of the Balinese community.

The Naïve Bayes model has a good accuracy rate of 0.77 or 77% in analyzing sentiment for social assistance check application reviews.

Cooking oil is a staple food widely used in daily cooking. However, repeated use of cooking oil, resulting in its conversion into used cooking oil, can have negative impacts on both health and the environment. Used cooking oil that has changed color and quality is carcinogenic and has the potential to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease if consumed again. Furthermore, improper disposal of used cooking oil can cause environmental pollution because it is difficult to decompose. This study aims to examine the wise management of household waste, especially used cooking oil, by utilizing it into products with utility value. One form of utilization is processing used cooking oil into environmentally friendly soap for laundry purposes. This activity was carried out as a form of community service through training in making soap from used cooking oil with the addition of essential oils for aromatherapy for residents of Pasar Rawa Village, Gebang District, Langkat Regency. The research method used was qualitative, with observation and direct participation in the training activities. The results showed that participants, particularly housewives, demonstrated high enthusiasm and were actively involved in both the presentation and the soap-making practices. This activity not only raised public awareness of the importance of managing used cooking oil waste but also provided new skills that have the potential to support family economic growth.

The enactment of Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code brought fundamental changes to the regulation of the crime of adultery in Indonesia. The expansion of the scope of criminalization, including regulations regarding extramarital relationships, has given rise to debate regarding its compliance with the principles of the formation of laws and regulations and its impact on criminal law enforcement. This study aims to analyze the provisions of the adultery article in the new Criminal Code from the perspective of the principles of the formation of laws and regulations and assess its implications for the effectiveness of the criminal justice system. This study uses a normative legal research method with a legislative and conceptual approach. Legal materials were obtained through literature studies and analyzed qualitatively and juridically. The results show that the regulation of the crime of adultery in the new Criminal Code has a clear normative purpose, but still leaves issues regarding the clarity of formulation, legal certainty, and potential human rights violations. Furthermore, the application of the adultery article has the potential to create obstacles in law enforcement practices, particularly related to evidence, caseload, and the legitimacy of the criminal justice system. Therefore, further evaluation is needed to ensure that these regulations align with the principles of sound legislative development and ensure legal justice.

This research examines inter-ethnic marriages between Acehnese and Bugis-Makassar communities in Makassar City from 1990 to 2004, which emerged as a consequence of social mobility, cross-cultural interaction, and compatibility of religious values. The purpose of this study is to explain the factors that trigger inter-ethnic marriages, the underlying customary processes, and the socio-cultural dynamics that occur within family life. This research uses historical methods, including the heuristic stage, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography, with data obtained thru in-depth interviews with four families and related documentary sources. The research findings indicate that holding a wedding requires cultural negotiation between the two groups, with some families adopting traditional Acehnese ceremonial customs, while others implement Bugis-Makassar traditions. In family life, couples face differences in values regarding communication, gender role division, and religious practices, which are then overcome thru a dialogue-based process of adaptation and compromise. This process results in the formation of hybrid cultural identities, the expansion of social networks, and the strengthening of inter-ethnic integration. Overall, intertribal marriages serve as a medium for cultural reconciliation and a means of building more inclusive social relationships in a multicultural society.

Divorce often creates new problems, one of which is related to child custody and visitation rights for parents who do not have custody. Prohibiting visitation by the custodial parent not only violates the rights of the non-custodial parent, but also disregards the child's right to receive affection from both parents. The purpose of this study is to examine the types of legal protection available to non-custodial parents who are prohibited from seeing their children. This study uses a normative legal research method with a statutory approach. Data collected from interviews with legal practitioners and parties who have experienced similar problems are included in this study. The results show that prohibiting parents who have custody from meeting their children is against the law and contrary to the principle of the best interests of the child. Parents who do not have custody rights can file a lawsuit to revoke custody rights, as stipulated in SEMA No. 1 January 2017. This study emphasizes the importance of the law in balancing the rights and obligations of parents after divorce for the best interests of the child.

The purpose of this study is to identify the concept of economic empowerment for Muslims in the Qur'an and to understand its role in life. The threat of poverty and powerlessness can undermine faith, morals, security stability, and create social dissatisfaction. Therefore, through verses in the Qur'an, the researcher will discuss the economic empowerment of Muslims from a Qur'anic perspective. The research method used is the maudlu'i interpretation of economics, which includes the following steps: first, collecting verses relevant to the economic issues to be analyzed, both based on keywords and the content of the verses in general and specifically. Second, interpreting these verses by following the sequence of verses in the Mushaf or based on the chronology of the revelation of the surahs. Third, the interpretation model applied is maudlu'i by linking them to the real conditions of the economy. In this study, researchers will examine data contained in the Qur'an, tafsir, hadith, as well as books and journals related to the meaning of economic empowerment of Muslims. The concept of economic empowerment of Muslims from the perspective of the Qur'an is to free individuals from injustice, empower human potential, and encourage individuals to care for others, towards happiness in this world and the hereafter. The role of economic empowerment of Muslims in life includes: contributing to eliminating the practice of usury, human trafficking, monopoly of wealth, and power that triggers poverty, hunger, and fear. In addition, it also motivates individual Muslims to be strong, resilient, persistent, and strive earnestly and not give up.

The problem with the coconut grater machine is that the machine has decreased performance after being used for several years, especially in the mechanical components (electric motor, V belt, Pulley, grater knife, hopper) and its electricity. The purpose of maintenance and repair planning is to obtain costs, maintenance and repair schedules for the period 2026, and the ratio of maintenance costs to profit. The maintenance and repair planning method includes collecting previous maintenance data, applying the inspection-replace-repair-overhaul (IRRO) method, evaluating component conditions, predicting component lifespan, predicting labor costs, predicting supporting equipment that will be used in maintenance, predicting the time to replace spare parts or reinstall repaired components, estimating maintenance and repair costs for the 2026 period, and calculating the maintenance cost to profit ratio. The results of maintenance and repair planning obtained maintenance costs for the 2026 period were IDR 957,000 with an estimated coconut grater machine rental rate of IDR 10,000/hour which has the potential to be rented for 900 hours/year, and the maintenance cost to profit ratio was 10.6% which implies that the coconut grater machine with a capacity of 15 kg/hour is still prospective and feasible to use for the next few years.
