Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) are no longer viewed solely as religious educational institutions but also as socio-economic entities that play a strategic role in community empowerment and the development of the Islamic economy. The emergence of various pesantren business units, including Islamic cooperatives, Islamic microfinance institutions, agribusinesses, and service enterprises, reflects the transformation of pesantren into productive and economically independent institutions. However, many pesantren continue to face challenges in achieving economic sustainability, including weak governance systems, limited managerial professionalism, inadequate human resources, and excessive dependence on charismatic leadership. This study aims to develop a conceptual model of pesantren business governance based on Islamic governance principles to achieve institutional economic sustainability. Using a qualitative approach and library research method, this study analyzes relevant literature on pesantren economics, Islamic governance, sustainability, and risk management. The findings indicate that sustainable pesantren economic development requires the integration of Islamic governance values, namely amanah (trustworthiness), transparency, justice, and maslahah (public benefit), with modern management systems and comprehensive risk management practices. The study proposes a conceptual governance framework linking pesantren resources, sharia governance, professional management, and risk mitigation as key determinants of economic independence and institutional sustainability. This framework is expected to provide strategic guidance for strengthening pesantren-based economic development in a sustainable and socially beneficial manner.

This research was conducted at Toko Bangunan Jaya Perkasa. The purpose of this study is to determine whether the internal control system for inventory management in the observed company has been implemented effectively or not. This study uses a qualitative method with data source triangulation techniques, including observation, interviews, and documentation based on data collection and relevant facts. The research informants consisted of seven individuals. The results show that the internal control system at Toko Bangunan Jaya Perkasa has not been implemented optimally, and the inventory management is still vulnerable to risks and potential losses. This is due to the fact that the procedures for purchasing, storing, recording, and selling goods are still conducted manually. The company faces several problems such as stock discrepancies, damaged goods, and obstacles related to suppliers and customers. The suggestions provided include implementing a computerized system for inventory management in the future, conducting regular stock opname to minimize stock discrepancies, improving communication to avoid duplicate stock records, and establishing clear communication and agreements at the beginning of transactions to overcome external constraints.

Changes in KUA–PPAS are influenced by internal factors such as discrepancies in revenue and expenditure realization, program shifts, and the utilization of budget surplus (SiLPA), as well as external factors including central government policy changes, macroeconomic conditions, and emergency situations.

Changes in labor regulations through the Job Creation Law have brought significant changes to the employment system in Indonesia, particularly in terms of labor flexibility. This study aims to analyze labor flexibility after the implementation of the Job Creation Law from the perspective of Human Resource Management (HRM). The research method used is a qualitative approach through a literature study with thematic analysis of 16 scientific journals, books, and regulations related to labor flexibility and strategic Human Resource Management (HRM) practices. The results show that labor flexibility has positive impacts on companies in improving operational efficiency, productivity, and adaptability to market changes. However, on the other hand, such flexibility also creates several challenges, including job uncertainty, decreased job security, and reduced protection for contract and outsourced workers. From the HRM perspective, companies are required to create a balance between business interests and labor protection in order to maintain harmonious industrial relations. This study is expected to provide a more comprehensive understanding of labor flexibility as part of human resource management strategies in the post-labor deregulation era in Indonesia.

The implementation of healthy and safe school standards is a strategic effort to create a learning environment that supports the health and safety of elementary school students.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Land and Building Tax (Pajak Bumi dan Bangunan or PBB) collection and its significant impact on local revenue generation. Land and building tax is a crucial component of local government revenue in Indonesia, especially following the implementation of regional autonomy and fiscal decentralization policies. Despite its critical role in funding local infrastructure and public services, the realization of PBB often falls short of its potential targets. This research utilizes a qualitative descriptive approach, employing secondary data collected from local revenue agencies and extensive literature reviews of previous academic publications. The objectives are to evaluate the effectiveness of current collection mechanisms, identify the primary obstacles hindering taxpayer compliance, and assess the overall contribution of PBB to regional financial independence. The findings reveal that while the administrative framework for PBB collection is generally well-established, practical implementation faces numerous challenges, including outdated land value assessments, low taxpayer awareness, suboptimal database management, and limited human resources within the tax apparatus. Furthermore, the study indicates that targeted digitalization of tax services and proactive public socialization campaigns can significantly enhance compliance rates. Practically, the results provide valuable recommendations for local policymakers to reform their tax collection strategies, optimize revenue streams, and ensure sustainable regional development.

The achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Indonesia continues to face various challenges, particularly those related to poverty, social inequality, and increasing environmental degradation caused by climate change. These conditions highlight the need for an instrument capable of integrating social welfare objectives with environmental sustainability. This article aims to analyze the role of green zakat as an Islamic social finance instrument in supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a library research method through the collection and analysis of various sources, including academic journals, books, official reports, and other relevant documents related to zakat, Islamic social finance, green economy, and sustainable development. The findings indicate that green zakat has significant potential to support the achievement of the SDGs through environmentally based economic empowerment programs, such as sustainable agriculture, reforestation, waste management, and the development of eco-friendly businesses for vulnerable communities. In addition to contributing to poverty alleviation, green zakat can support climate change mitigation efforts and environmental conservation in line with the principles of maqashid sharia. However, its implementation still faces several challenges, including limited public literacy, inadequate regulatory support, and suboptimal governance of environmental-based programs. Therefore, stronger collaboration among government institutions, zakat management organizations, and society is needed to develop a more effective green zakat model. Future studies are recommended to conduct empirical research to measure the impact of green zakat implementation on specific and measurable SDG indicators.

Environmental pollution is a common problem in cities and can increase the likelihood of flooding. The purpose of this study is to analyze environmental pollution as a cause of flooding in the Pekapuran Street area, Depok City. This study applies a descriptive method with a qualitative approach. Data were obtained through observation, documentation, and literature review. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the accumulation of household waste around the drainage channels causes obstruction of water flow, which triggers flooding during rain. In addition, the shallow, mud-filled, and poorly maintained drainage conditions increase the risk of flooding. Low levels of public awareness of environmental cleanliness are also factors that exacerbate the condition. This study concludes that flooding on Pekapuran Street is influenced not only by high rainfall, but also by environmental pollution and a suboptimal drainage system. Based on this, better waste management and drainage maintenance are needed to minimize the risk of flooding in the area.

This research aims to analyze the gap between the profit-sharing principle as the normative foundation of Islamic economics and the risk management practices applied in sharia cooperatives, considering the ongoing inconsistencies in the implementation of the risk-sharing principle. The research method employs a qualitative approach thru literature study with thematic and comparative analysis techniques on relevant academic literature. The results and discussion indicate that sharia cooperatives tend to adopt a conventional risk management paradigm oriented toward institutional stability, thereby triggering the dominance of non-profit-sharing contracts and the shift of the concept of risk sharing to risk shifting in operational practices. The gap is influenced by structural factors, including limitations in managerial capacity, information asymmetry, potential moral hazard, and pressures of institutional sustainability. This study concludes that the risk management practices of sharia cooperatives do not fully reflect the principles of Islamic economics, thus necessitating a reconstruction of a more integrative and contextual risk management model. As a suggestion, sharia cooperatives need to develop a risk management framework based on risk sharing that is adaptive to operational risks without disregarding the values of justice and partnership as the main characteristics of Islamic economics.

The rapid development of financial technology, particularly online lending, has transformed consumption patterns among working-age individuals by providing easy access to digital credit. This study aims to analyze the influence of financial literacy and online loans on the consumptive lifestyles of gas station workers in the Bululawang area. An explanatory quantitative approach was employed, with all gas station workers serving as the study population. A saturated sampling (census) technique was applied, and data were collected through digital Likert-scale questionnaires. The hypotheses were tested using Multiple Linear Regression Analysis. The findings indicate that financial literacy does not significantly reduce consumptive lifestyles, suggesting that financial knowledge alone is insufficient to control spending behavior without strong self-discipline. In contrast, the use of online loan applications has a significant positive effect on consumptive behavior, as rapid access to credit creates a perception of greater purchasing power and encourages impulsive spending to satisfy lifestyle and social prestige. Simultaneously, limited financial literacy combined with easy access to digital credit significantly increases consumptive lifestyles. The study concludes that improving financial management requires not only theoretical financial literacy but also practical financial discipline. Therefore, companies are encouraged to provide continuous financial education and develop safer internal financing alternatives to reduce workers' dependence on digital lending platforms.

Patient satisfaction is a key indicator of health service quality in the National Health Insurance era. Outpatient services for BPJS members still face problems regarding waiting time, communication, and facilities. This study aimed to analyze factors affecting BPJS patient satisfaction with outpatient service quality at Malahayati Islamic Hospital Medan in 2026. A cross-sectional analytic design was applied to 150 respondents selected through consecutive sampling. Data were collected using a validated questionnaire (r>0.361; α=0.876) and analyzed by Chi-square and multiple logistic regression. Results showed that waiting time (p<0.001), staff competence (p<0.001), staff attitude (p<0.001), drug availability (p=0.032), facility comfort (p<0.001), administrative ease (p=0.003), and information clarity (p=0.008) were significantly associated with satisfaction. Multivariate analysis revealed waiting time as the most dominant factor (OR=5.42; 95% CI: 2.31–12.71), followed by staff competence (OR=4.18), facility comfort (OR=2.87), and staff attitude (OR=2.42), with Nagelkerke R²=0.512. Hospital management should optimize service flow and adopt digital queuing systems to enhance patient satisfaction.

This study investigates why applicants who have passed the initial admissions stage do not proceed to final enrolment in an Indonesian private higher education context. While student recruitment is often measured by the number of applications received, institutional sustainability depends on the ability to convert applicants into enrolled students. This study employed a descriptive survey design supported by thematic analysis of open-ended responses. Data were collected from 179 applicants who had participated in the admissions process but did not complete final re-registration. The data were analyzed using frequencies, percentages, and thematic categorization. The findings show that conversion failure is influenced by several factors, including waiting for public university admission results, financial constraints, postponement of study plans, family considerations, uncertainty about the institution or study programmed, preference for other institutions, and campus accessibility. A key finding reveals that 58.1% of respondents would reconsider enrolment if scholarships, tuition discounts, or other financial assistance were available. These findings highlight the need for a conversion management strategy through targeted financial aid, transparent cost communication, family engagement, and proactive applicant follow-up.

The findings reveal that AI-based demand forecasting and big data analytics have a positive and significant effect on prediction accuracy. Furthermore, prediction accuracy has a positive and significant effect on inventory optimization and significantly mediates the relationship between AI-based demand forecasting, big data analytics, and inventory optimization. These findings indicate that the integration of AI and big data analytics contributes to more accurate demand prediction, leading to improved inventory management performance. The implication of this study suggests that e-commerce actors should improve data quality, analytical capability, and the adoption of predictive technologies to support more accurate, efficient, and responsive inventory decisions, thereby enhancing operational performance and competitiveness in responding to dynamic market demand.      

Mangrove forests are high-value coastal ecosystems that have the potential to be developed as sustainable ecotourism destinations. This study aims to analyze the development of Mangrove Forest Tourism in Kampung Kayu Ara Permai, Sungai Apit District, Siak Regency based on the three pillars of sustainable tourism of the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), namely environmental, economic, and socio-cultural sustainability. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach through literature studies and semi-structured interviews with regional managers. The results of the study show that this area has a good mangrove ecosystem with nine species and an average Tourism Suitability Index (IKW) of 76.89% (Suitable/S2 category). From an economic perspective, eight non-timber forest products (NTFPs) downstream products and community-based homestay models have created an equitable distribution of benefits for residents. The socio-cultural dimension is supported by the authenticity of the coastal Malay tradition that is still preserved. However, the three dimensions face challenges in the form of the absence of protection regulations, the absence of a government fixed budget, and low public participation in management evaluation. This study recommends the issuance of regional regulations, the establishment of tourism BUMDes, and the strengthening of community participation as the foundation for sustainable ecotourism development.
