Personal hygiene plays a significant role in food contamination, influenced by several factors including the cleanliness of eating utensils. The human body can be a source of contamination, especially when hygiene is not maintained properly, leading to the contamination of food and utensils. Contamination is not only derived from food and water sources but also from unsanitary eating equipment. In Indonesia, regulations have been established under the Minister of Health Regulation No. 1096/Menkes/SK/VI/2011 concerning hygiene and sanitation requirements for food service providers. This study aims to assess the personal hygiene of ready-to-eat food handlers in Latta Village, Teluk Ambon Baguala District. The research is descriptive in nature, using interviews and observations. The study population consisted of 22 ready-to-eat food vendors, with a sample of 5 vendors selected. The results showed that all five food handlers (Vendors I to V) did not meet the hygiene requirements according to the Ministry of Health Regulation No. 1096/Menkes/Per/VI/2011, with a contamination level of 0 CFU. This indicates that the personal hygiene of the five food handlers in Latta Village, Teluk Ambon Baguala District, does not meet the required standards.

A separatist creditor are those holding proprietary security rights over a debtor’s assets, granting them preferential claims in the satisfaction of debts through the execution of the collateral. Article 59 of the Indonesian Bankruptcy and Suspension of Debt Payment Obligations Law (UU KPKPU) restricts the exercise of such execution rights to a period of two months following the declaration of bankruptcy. This limitation raises issues of fairness, as it treats all creditors equally without regard to the legal priority attached to secured creditors. The provision risks undermining the absolute nature of proprietary security rights and deviates from the principle of proportional justice as articulated by Aristoteles. This article adopts a normative legal approach, examining statutory provisions, legal principles, and relevant doctrinal opinions. The findings suggest that the uniform treatment of secured and unsecured creditors after the expiry of the execution period is inconsistent with the fundamental characteristics of secured rights, namely their priority and enforceability against third parties. Accordingly, a revision of the existing legal framework is necessary to ensure the proper and equitable enforcement of secured creditors' rights in bankruptcy proceedings.

East Africa has great potential in the tourism sector, but is vulnerable to the threat of terrorism that can hinder economic growth and regional stability. This research aims to analyze the impact of terrorism on tourism development, especially in Kenya as a case study. The research uses a Library Research method with a descriptive qualitative approach based on narrative and contextual. The theory used is the tactical definition of terrorism by C.A.J Coady which emphasizes violence against civilians for political interests and Esmailzadeh's perspective which states the adaptive and global nature of terrorism. The results of the analysis show that terror attacks, such as those that occurred in several countries in the East African region, do not only cause physical casualties but also psychological and symbolic impacts in the form of declining tourist numbers, disruption of security perceptions and a negative image of the destination in the eyes of the international community. This study emphasizes the importance of an integrated approach: hard security, inclusive economic development, and soft power-based promotion. The novelty of this research lies in the integration of theoretical-philosophical approaches and empirical data to assess the linkages between security and tourism in conflict-prone areas, which have rarely been studied in depth in the East African context.

Office management is a key component in ensuring the effectiveness and efficiency of administrative services in both public and educational institutions. The increasing demands for service speed, accuracy, transparency, and professionalism necessitate an integrated and adaptive office management system. This study aims to explore how office management contributes to enhancing administrative service quality through a library research approach. Data were obtained from academic journals, theses, institutional reports, and theoretical literature. The analysis reveals that effective office management encompasses structured planning, proper document management, digital information systems, and staff competency development, all of which contribute significantly to improved service quality. Moreover, standard operating procedures and the integration of manual and digital systems enhance consistency and service reliability. The study supports the theoretical proposition that office management functions planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling are directly correlated with administrative performance indicators. Practical implications include the urgency of digitizing records, implementing standardized workflows, and continuously training administrative personnel. Limitations of this research lie in its purely conceptual and literature-based nature, thus future studies are recommended to adopt empirical or mixed methods approaches for broader generalizability. These findings reaffirm the importance of repositioning office management from a support function to a strategic pillar in administrative service improvement efforts.

The comparison of health law between Indonesia andMalaysia covers critical aspects of the healthcare system that influence the quality of life of their citizens. This study primarily focuses on occupational health and safety (OHS) for healthcare workers. According to global data, Malaysia has a better healthcare system compared to Indonesia, as reflected in its higher ranking on the Health Care Index. In Indonesia,health law regulations often undergo changes and revisions,such as the enactment of the Omnibus Law, which consolidates various health sector regulations. However, this has raised concerns about the diminishing legal protection for healthcare workers. In contrast, Malaysia presents a more structured system, with the integration of health and labor institutions through the Department of Occupational Safety And Health (DOSH), which ensures better workplace safety and clearer standards. This research adopts a descriptive qualitative approach by analyzing legal documents such as Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health in Indonesia and the Occupational Safety and Health Act in Malaysia. The Malaysian approach is more preventive and promotive in nature, differing from Indonesia’s curative-dominated model. The study aims to compare the legal health regulations of both countries, assess their implementation effectiveness, and offer policy recommendations based on best practices applied inMalaysia to improve the quality of healthcare services inIndonesia. The findings reveal that although Indonesia has significant potential in the health sector, weak regulation implementation and supervision remain major obstacles. Therefore, a more structured and efficient regulatory reform is needed to enhance legal protection for healthcare workers and improve health services.

Humans are not merely thinking beings but also emotional and spiritual creatures. However, modern education tends to prioritize the cognitive dimension and academic achievement, while psychological and spiritual aspects are often neglected. This imbalance has resulted in the emergence of intellectually capable generations who may lack emotional maturity and moral integrity. Therefore, an educational approach that incorporates philosophical, psychological, and Islamic values is essential in shaping a holistic human being. This study aims to analyze the nature of humans from a psychological perspective and its implications for designing holistic, learner-centered education. This research employs a qualitative approach using the library research method. Data collection was carried out through documentary studies by reading and reviewing written sources such as scientific books, journal articles, and other academic literature relevant to the research topic. The data were analyzed using content analysis, which includes identifying themes, categorizing key ideas, and drawing conceptual meanings from the collected data. The results show that from a psychological perspective, humans possess innate potentials that develop through specific stages, are influenced by environmental factors, and have a fundamental need for self-actualization. Humanistic, cognitive, and behaviorist psychological approaches all contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of human nature. The findings reinforce the notion that education focused solely on cognitive development is insufficient for shaping a well-rounded personality. Therefore, the education system must be oriented toward balanced development of the cognitive, affective, socialand spiritual dimensions of learners.

This study aims to examine the effect of firm value on stock returns. The data used in this research are secondary data obtained from company financial statements, including book value, net income, number of shares, and market price of shares during the period 2020–2024. The sample consists of 20 food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, observed over a five-year period, resulting in a total of 100 observations (20 companies × 5 years). The sampling technique used is purposive sampling. Firm value is measured using the Price to Book Value (PBV) ratio and the Price Earnings Ratio (PER), while stock return is calculated by taking the price at time t minus the price at time t–1, then divided by the price at time t–1. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results of the study indicate that PBV has a positive and significant effect on stock returns, whereas PER does not have a significant impact. These findings suggest that firm value, as reflected by PBV, has a more consistent influence on stock returns compared to PER. This may be due to the fluctuating nature of profits, stock prices, and the number of shares outstanding, which vary across large and small companies in the food and beverage sector. Therefore, this study recommends incorporating additional variables, such as firm size and the liquidity of outstanding shares (free float), to minimize potential bias in the analysis.

The development of social media has triggered a dynamic shift in the meaning of language used in everyday communication. This article aims to analyze the lexical meaning changes and expansions in the Indonesian language as used on social media platforms, particularly Twitter and Instagram. This study employs a descriptive semantic approach with content analysis methods applied to selected viral posts. The findings show that many words experience semantic shift, the formation of new meanings (neologisms), and altered connotations based on digital context. These results highlight the importance of semantic understanding in interpreting the evolving nature of language in the digital era.

Family counseling aims to provide a deeper understanding of the nature of marriage, teach conflict resolution strategies, and help couples build healthier and more harmonious relationships. In family counseling, couples are taught how to communicate better, understand each other's emotional needs, and find fair and wise solutions to resolve existing differences. In addition, counseling also helps couples to increase mutual trust, strengthen commitment, and create a family environment full of support and love.

A discussion on Islamic morality and ethics is the purpose of this paper. We see many modern generations paying little attention to how to apply morality in their daily lives. Morals and ethics are human behaviours in daily life that have been instilled. Morals come from the Qur'an and the Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad and include what is good, bad, right, and wrong in one's actions. Meanwhile, ethics come from the culture and customs of the local community. In this paper, the author discusses the meaning of morals and ethics, human relationships with God, humans, and nature. Protest is a legitimate form of expression in a democratic society. In Islam, protest is also recognised as the right of everyone to voice injustice and bias. However, protests must also be carried out with ethics that are in accordance with Islamic teachings. The ethics of protest can be explained in the hadith, namely: Protests must be carried out peacefully and not violate the law. This is in accordance with the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad SAW, "Whoever sees an evil should change it with his hand. If he is unable, then with his tongue. If he is unable, then with his heart. And that is the weakest faith." (HR Muslim). In this Hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) teaches that protests should be done in stages, starting with the lightest action, namely giving a direct response. If you are unable to do so, then you can protest verbally, for example by expressing your opinion or criticism through the media. If that is no longer possible, then protest can be done in the heart, i.e. still rejecting evil, but not taking actions that can lead to violence or riots. Protest must be based on truth and justice. This is in accordance with the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad (saw), "Indeed, Allah is true and loves truth." (Narrated by Bukhari) In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (saw) affirms that protest must be based on truth and justice. This means that protest must be done because of real injustice, not because of personal or group interests.

The practice of tax avoidance is often used by companies to legally reduce tax obligations, which can harm the state. Companies with high profitability and large size may indicate the use of more complex effective tax planning strategies. This study aims to examine the influence of profitability and company size on tax avoidance. This research is explanatory in nature. The research sample consists of 19 manufacturing companies in the food and beverage subsector listed on the IDX for the period 2020–2023, obtained through purposive sampling. Data analysis techniques include descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, goodness-of-fit tests (F-test and coefficient of determination), and hypothesis testing (t-test). The results show that profitability has a significant positive effect on tax avoidance, while company size has a significant negative effect on tax avoidance

. This article explores four foundational pillars of Arabic semantics: Isytiqaq (derivation), Taraduf (synonymy), Isytirok (polysemy), and Tadladh (antonymy). These concepts are crucial for understanding the dynamic and layered nature of meaning in classical Arabic texts, including the Qur'an, Hadith, and classical Arabic literature. Isytiqaq provides insight into the origin and development of words through their root structures, while Taraduf illustrates the richness of Arabic vocabulary through synonymous expressions. Isytirok addresses the phenomenon of a single word carrying multiple meanings based on context, and Tadladh reveals semantic oppositions that enhance rhetorical expression and textual clarity. This study emphasizes the importance of these four semantic pillars in linguistic analysis and interpretation, highlighting their role in the beauty and precision of the Arabic language.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a metabolic disorder that is increasingly prevalent among the productive-age population and can significantly impair quality of life, particularly due to its progressive nature and often asymptomatic presentation in the early stages. Routine assessments of kidney function—such as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and serum creatinine levels—are essential for the early detection of kidney impairment. The Community Service Program (PKM) conducted in Grogol Village aimed to raise public awareness regarding the importance of early screening for kidney dysfunction. Among the 71 participants involved in the activity, 9 individuals (12.68%) had elevated serum creatinine levels, 4 individuals (5.63%) showed evidence of stage 3a kidney function decline, and 31 individuals (43.66%) were identified with stage 2 kidney function decline. Only 36 participants (50.7%) had normal kidney function. These results underscore the necessity of early detection efforts to prevent the progression of CKD and to promote sustained public awareness on the importance of maintaining kidney and metabolic health.   Keywords: Chronic Kidney Disease, Creatinine, eGFR, Early Detection, Productive Age

This study explores how love metaphors are expressed in three selected songs: Guilty as Sin, The Alchemy, and But Daddy I Love Him, from Taylor Swift's The Tortured Poets Department album. Language plays a crucial role in conveying abstract emotions like love, and metaphor is a powerful tool for articulating complex feelings in song lyrics. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach, the research analyzes the lyrics through Lakoff and Johnson’s conceptual metaphor theory, categorizing metaphors into structural, ontological, and orientational types. Data were collected by closely reading the lyrics and noting metaphorical expressions, which were then interpreted within their emotional and thematic contexts. The findings reveal that ontological and structural metaphors dominate, portraying love as poetic storytelling and an evolving emotional journey, while no orientational metaphors were identified. This study highlights how Taylor Swift employs metaphorical language to capture the multifaceted nature of love, heartbreak, and personal transformation, demonstrating the significant role of metaphor in shaping emotional meaning in contemporary popular music.
