Social and economic welfare reflects the quality of life in a region and is influenced by local social, economic, and environmental factors. East Java, as the second most populous province in Indonesia, faces challenges in improving the welfare of its residents, particularly due to varying regional characteristics such as employment, education, and population demographics. To understand the patterns of interrelationships among factors affecting welfare, this study conducted a klaster analysis to group regions based on similar characteristics. The klaster analysis employed both hierarchical (complete linkage) and non-hierarchical (K-means) approaches to determine the optimal number of klasters. The results revealed that the level of diversity across regions in East Java tends to be homogeneous in social and economic aspects, with average values exceeding standard deviations. Assumption tests for the klaster analysis confirmed that the data met the assumptions of multivariate normal distribution and dependency.Through hierarchical (complete linkage) and non-hierarchical (K-means) klaster analysis, two main klasters were formed, dividing districts/cities in East Java based on welfare characteristics. Using the complete linkage method, 27 regions were grouped into klaster 1, and 11 regions into klaster 2, while K-means grouped 26 regions into klaster 1 and 12 regions into klaster 2. Out of the six variables used, one variable was found to be insignificant in influencing the klastering results. Based on the mapping results, the grouping aligns with similar criteria, where urban areas predominantly fall into one klaster, and the other klaster is dominated by rural areas.

The The aim of this study is to examine the migration pattern of the Minahasa people to the Netherlands over three generations, focusing on the economic aspect that became one of the main drivers of migration. This research uses a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis that combines historical data, interviews and literature studies related to the migration phenomenon that occurred from the early 20th century to the present. The three generations of Minahasa migration to the Netherlands include: (1) the first generation that left during the colonial period, generally driven by employment factors and the role of the Netherlands as a colonial state, (2) the second generation that began to migrate in post-independence Indonesia, where economic and educational factors were the main considerations, and (3) the third generation that migrated with more diverse motivations, including the search for better economic opportunities and family reasons. The research found that economic migration was a very important factor in each generational phase, although personal motivations and socio-political developments in Indonesia and the Netherlands also played an important role. The impact of this migration is not only visible at the individual level, but also affects social and economic changes in both countries, both in terms of the integration of the Minahasa community in the Netherlands and their contribution to the economic development of the Netherlands. In addition, this study also highlights the differences in migration characteristics from generation to generation.The reasons for the Minahasa migrated to the Netherlands from the first generation to the present are as follows: (1) KNIL were soldiers of the Dutch East Indies Kingdom, some former KNIL soldiers from Minahasa chose to fly and migrate to the Netherlands. The interaction of culture, religion and language that lasted for a long time eventually gave birth to emotional closeness between immigrants, in this case the Dutch and the Minahasa. (2) The Netherlands and the Minahasa are closely related because Minahasa is the 12th province of the Netherlands. This made people loyal to Twapro choose to migrate to the Netherlands. (3) On Santa Claus (a celebration of Christmas welcoming day, which is celebrated by the Dutch and Minahasa residents), on December 5, 1957, the Indonesian government carried out a massive nationalization of assets belonging to the Netherlands, the embassy and consulate (Netherlands) was closed, and evacuation plans were prepared everywhere (massive expulsion of Dutch citizens out of Indonesia). At that time, not only Dutch citizens were forcibly evicted, but also many Minahasa people who migrated to the Netherlands on their own wishes and choices by boarding Dutch ships together to the Netherlands. (4) A movement involving Minahasa people occurred in 1958 which was Permesta. For a just and prosperous economy as well for a life that is safe, comfortable and peaceful. (5) The creation of the Jakarta Charter, which was signed on June 22, 1945. At this time, gradually, the Minahasa people migrated to the Netherlands because they were worried about their religion as a minority in their country. (6) Many Minahasa people have been displaced, as a result of the "prejudice" of some Indonesians towards them. In the post-Independence period of the Republic of Indonesia, there were prejudices against Christians. This prejudice was based on the a priori attitude of other groups who accused them of being Dutch 'sympathizers'. Because their religion is Christianity who came from the Netherlands and were educated by evangelists from the Netherlands. (7) Assimilate in the context of marriage. (8) The similarity of customs, customs, traditions, culture and beliefs between the Dutch and the Minahasa. There is a bright future in the exchange of personal stories between Minahasa people, migrated Minahasa and native Dutch who will understand each other much better. It is also hoped that the sciences in the fields of architecture, water management or agriculture, plantations and others will enable the Minahasa diaspora in the Netherlands to use them to develop and advance their Minahasa homeland, through hard skills and soft skills. There are many potentials and opportunities to tie and strengthen relations between the two countries.

The Qur'an, as the guiding book for Muslims, contains profound meanings that have consistently attracted scholarly attention throughout history. To comprehend these meanings, various interpretive methods have been developed and categorized based on their forms: Tafsir bi al-Matsur, Tafsir bi al-Ra’yi, and Tafsir bi al-Isyari. This article explores the characteristics, methods, and contributions of each type of interpretation in understanding the Qur'an. Tafsir bi al-Matsur relies on the traditions of the Prophet, his companions, and successors, providing an authoritative foundation. Tafsir bi al-Ra’yi integrates reason and ijtihad to address contemporary challenges. Meanwhile, Tafsir bi al-Isyari emphasizes esoteric dimensions that are symbolic and spiritual in nature. This study reveals that these three forms of tafsir complement each other in bridging human understanding of the Qur'an and addressing the intellectual and spiritual needs of Muslims in various life contexts.

This study aims to analyze the influence of soil contour types and depths on soil characteristics using a Randomized Block Design (RBD) method. The research data were obtained from a secondary dataset encompassing physical and chemical soil characteristics across three contour types (Top, Slope, and Depression) and four depth levels (0-10 cm, 10-30 cm, 30-60 cm, and 60-90 cm). The analysis results indicate that soil contour types and depths do not significantly affect most soil characteristics, such as pH, nitrogen content, phosphorus, calcium, sodium, and soil conductivity. However, significant effects were observed on magnesium (Mg) and potassium (K) content. Conversely, area grouping showed significant effects on nearly all tested soil characteristics. These findings highlight the importance of considering geographical variations in soil management to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of agricultural practices. Further research is recommended to explore other factors affecting soil characteristics, such as climate and vegetation types, to support more optimal land management strategies.

An orphanage is an institution that houses children who do not have families or children who cannot live at home with their families.

The research subjects amounted to 10 children with specific characteristics, namely children who live in orphanages and are in the age range of 13-18 years, equivalent to the MTs and MA education levels. Based on the research results that have been described in the conclusion, we as researchers in this study propose the following suggestions: (1) For the Al-Hikmah Orphanage: Can consider making entrepreneurship training a routine activity that can be a forum for children in developing and practicing their entrepreneurial skills, this activity can be in the form of a weekly workshop or a project with a long-term time. (2) For future researchers: It is expected to develop a more specific entrepreneurship training model and of course by adjusting the existing technological developments, for example by conducting technology-based entrepreneurship training

Indonesia, based on natural resource potential, has great potential to achieve beef self-sufficiency. The contribution of this sector is not only limited to meeting food needs in the form of beef, but also includes economic aspects such as providing employment opportunities, industrial raw materials, and increasing the income of local farmers. This shows that the development of this sector has great potential in supporting food security and improving community welfare. Therefore, research was conducted on performance indicators that could influence the performance of the cattle farming sector in Indonesia in 2022 using cluster analysis. Cluster analysis is a statistical method that identifies groups of samples based on similar characteristics. Cluster analysis has two methods, namely hierarchical and non-hierarchical. This research focuses on classifying regions in Indonesia into groups based on similar characteristics. In this research, cluster analysis assumptions will be tested, namely the multivariate normal distribution test, conducting cluster analysis using hierarchical and non-hierarchical methods, characterizing the data in each cluster, then drawing conclusions and suggestions from the research results. Based on the research results obtained on data characteristics, it was found that variables tend to have a variety of data. Hierarchical cluster analysis uses the single linkage method which has an optimum number of clusters of 4. The highest number of cluster members is in cluster 1. Then cluster 1 shows the highest performance in the cattle farming sector. In non-hierarchical cluster analysis using the k-means method which has an optimum number of clusters of 5. The highest number of cluster members is in cluster 4. Then clusters 2, 3 and 4 show higher performance in the cattle farming sector compared to clusters 1 and 5 .
