Container loading and unloading procedures are a series of essential operational activities carried out to systematically, safely, and efficiently move containers from ships to the stacking yard or vice versa. This study aims to examine these procedures, analyze the effectiveness of their implementation, and identify the obstacles and corrective efforts encountered in the field. The methods used include field observation (field research) and literature review (library research). The results indicate that the procedural stages involve document preparation (Bill of Lading and Manifest), ship berthing, the utilization of various loading and unloading equipment (such as Gantry Crane, RTG, and Headtruck), and container arrangement within the Container Yard (CY). The process involves three main work stages: Stevedoring, Cargodoring, and Receiving/Delivery, which require close coordination among port operators, foremen, and Stevedoring Workers (TKBM). Implementation can be hindered by crane breakdowns, headtruck limitations, traffic congestion, and slow stevedoring performance. Effective solutions suggested include routine equipment maintenance, increasing HT fleet capacity, enhancing human resource competency through training, and coordinating traffic routes with relevant authorities. Optimal procedure execution is crucial for ensuring smooth logistics flow, time efficiency, and occupational safety.

This research is entitled "The Role of Si'o in Nias Traditional Marriage in Marindal I Village, Patumbak District, Deli Sedang Regency". The purpose of this research is to describe the duties and roles carried out by a Si'o in a series of Nias traditional marriage processions in Marindal 1 Village, and to identify and analyze the obstacles or challenges faced by a Si'o in carrying out his duties in the Nias traditional marriage procession in Marindal 1 Village. The method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The results of the study show that Si'o plays a central role as a traditional figure who is responsible for bridging communication between two families. Si'o is not just an ordinary spokesperson, but an official representative of the family, especially from the male side, who has full responsibility to convey intentions, organize the handover of traditional symbols, and ensure that all stages of the traditional procession run in an orderly, sacred, and in accordance with the rules that have been passed down from generation to generation. To ensure the continued role of the Si'o in the future, efforts to preserve traditional customs are needed through several key steps, such as involving the younger generation in every traditional ceremony and utilizing modern technology, such as video documentation and digital media. This research utilizes Max Weber's leadership theory, specifically traditional leadership styles. The role of the Si'o is a concrete form of authority derived from cultural legitimacy. This research aims to understand the dynamics of wedding traditions in Nias. By examining the role of the Si'o, this research provides new insights into how customs adapt to the modern context and their impact on cultural identity.

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 younger generation born in the digital age has great potential to support tax collection. However, the low level of tax compliance among the younger generation is a major concern, especially in the digital age, where the use of online tax services is not yet optimal, tax literacy is still limited, and a lack of socialization is an obstacle to utilizing digital services. This study aims to analyze the influence of preferences for digital tax services and tax literacy on tax compliance among the younger generation at the Majalaya Tax Office. The study uses a quantitative approach with surveys as the data collection method. The sample consists of young taxpayers registered at the Majalaya Tax Office, and the data is analyzed using linear regression to test the partial and simultaneous effects of independent variables on tax compliance. The results show that digitalization preferences have a positive and significant effect on tax compliance, indicating that younger generations who are more responsive to digital services tend to be more compliant. Tax literacy also has a positive and significant effect, showing that a sufficient understanding of tax rights, obligations, and regulations encourages compliance. Simultaneously, the combination of digitalization preferences and tax literacy significantly affects tax compliance, with a coefficient of determination of 0.438, meaning that 43.8% of the variation in compliance can be explained by these two variables. The findings of this study emphasize the importance of integrating easy access to digital services and improved tax literacy to encourage tax compliance among the younger generation.

Data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that KPID Banten applies educational and participatory communication strategies through the socialization of the Broadcasting Behavior Guidelines and Program Standards (P3SPS), publications on social media, and public discussion forums. The community actively contributes by reporting broadcast violations and participating in media literacy activities. However, challenges such as low media literacy and limited understanding of broadcasting regulations remain obstacles. This study recommends enhancing collaboration among KPID, local governments, and community groups to strengthen participatory-based broadcast monitoring.

This study aims to examine the implementation and compliance with halal principles in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products in Indonesia. The halal aspect in these industries is crucial, as it directly relates to the permissibility of raw materials, production processes, and distribution that are consumed and used by Muslim communities. The research method applied is a literature review, analyzing government regulations, religious fatwas, and relevant previous studies. The findings indicate that the implementation of halal principles covers various aspects, including the selection of raw materials free from prohibited or impure substances, production processes that meet hygiene and halal standards, proper storage, distribution that is separated from non-halal products, and transparent marketing strategies. Producers’ compliance with halal requirements is influenced by several factors, such as growing consumer awareness, the role of government regulations in mandating halal certification, and corporate social as well as ethical responsibility. Nevertheless, there are still obstacles in its application, including the limited understanding of halal standards among certain producers, the lack of halal testing facilities, and certification costs that are considered burdensome for small and medium-sized enterprises. This study emphasizes that the success of halal implementation in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products requires collaboration among all stakeholders, including government bodies, halal certification authorities, industries, and society. Through such synergistic efforts, the sustainability of the halal industry can be ensured while also providing safety, comfort, and spiritual assurance for Muslim consumers in Indonesia.

Gender mainstreaming (PUG) is a development strategy that integrates gender equality as a key principle in planning and budgeting. The city of Semarang has adopted this approach in various policy documents; however, its implementation still faces significant challenges. This study aims to evaluate the achievement of the seven prerequisites for PUG according to the guidelines from the Ministry of PPPA, including commitment, policies, institutional frameworks, resources, sex-disaggregated data, gender analysis tools (GAP and GBS), and community participation. The research utilizes a descriptive qualitative approach, employing in-depth interviews, document studies, and questionnaires. Key informants include local government organizations (OPDs) and civil society representatives. Data analysis is carried out using Miles & Huberman's interactive model with thematic analysis. The findings show that normative prerequisites such as policies and institutional frameworks are in place, but implementation remains weak, particularly in the use of sex-disaggregated data and the application of GAP-GBS. Supporting factors for success include leadership commitment from specific OPDs and the existence of cross-sector coordination forums, while the main obstacles are limited human resource capacity and insufficient gender-responsive budget allocation. This study reinforces the relevance of policy implementation theory in bridging the gap between normative frameworks and operational practices. Recommendations include ongoing training, mainstreaming sex-disaggregated data, and technical regulations that all OPDs must follow to enhance the effectiveness of PUG.

Business actors do not have business permits, because the reason is that their business is small, and the permit process is very difficult, and business actors avoid paying local taxes.

This study aims to understand the perspectives of pastors from the Punguan Kristen Batak Church (GPKB) regarding disability-friendly services for congregants. As a faith community, the church has a significant responsibility to create an inclusive environment where every member, including those with disabilities, is accepted and served equally. People with disabilities are seen not only as part of human diversity but also as part of the whole body of Christ, and therefore, their service must be prioritized in church life. This research uses a qualitative descriptive analytical approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews with six pastors from GPKB districts in Indonesia to explore theological understanding, practical experience, and challenges in serving congregants with disabilities. Data analysis was conducted thematically to identify patterns of views, service practices, and obstacles that arise. The results show that 84% of pastors have a positive perspective on inclusive service and support congregants with disabilities. However, the study also found challenges such as inadequate physical facilities, minimal service strategies, and limited theological understanding of disabilities. In conclusion, a paradigm shift, capacity building for pastors, and ongoing institutional support are needed to create an inclusive and disability-friendly church.

This study aims to analyze the role of village heads in improving development in Darmorpis Village, Samofa District, Biak Numfor Regency. Village administration, as the spearhead of government administration, plays an important role in realizing public services, community empowerment, and sustainable development. This study uses qualitative methods with data collection techniques through interviews, observation, and literature study. The results show that the village head plays a strategic role in leading and mobilizing all elements of society, including traditional leaders, religious leaders, village officials, and the general public, to actively participate in development. The village head's leadership emphasizes not only administrative aspects but also service, motivation, work discipline, and capacity building for village officials.

This study aims to determine the strategy of the Tourism Office in developing the Pandaratan Beach tourist destination, Sarudik District, Central Tapanuli Regency. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through direct field observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation of a number of informants deemed relevant, namely the Tourism Office, Pokdarwis, the community as managers, business actors, and tourists. The results show that the Tourism Office's strategy in developing Pandaratan Beach has been formulated based on the Central Tapanuli Regency Tourism Office's strategic plan (Renstra). This strategy focuses on equitable distribution of development infrastructure with a superior commodity-based approach, which aims to support tourist attractions and increase the contribution of the tourism sector to regional development. The strategy implementation is realized through various programs, including proposing basic infrastructure development, human resource development through training, destination promotion through social media, development of natural tourism products, and the formation and empowerment of tourism awareness groups (Pokdarwis) as drivers of tourism awareness campaigns. The implications of this study indicate that the development of Pandaratan Beach has not been fully optimal and still faces several obstacles, such as limited supporting facilities, less than optimal tourism services, and uneven community participation, so that the impact on the quality of tourism services, increasing community participation, and the sustainability of the destination still needs to be strengthened. Therefore, a comprehensive and sustainable strengthening of the strategy is needed through cooperation from related parties so that the Pandaratan Beach tourist destination can develop more optimally based on superior commodities.
