This study aims to analyze the influence of taste, customer experience, and digital marketing on repurchase intention at Mie Ayam Panggang Demi Apa in Kediri. In the increasingly competitive culinary industry, business owners are required to maintain taste consistency, create memorable customer experiences, and optimally utilize digital platforms in their marketing strategies. These three factors are believed to play an essential role in shaping consumer behavior, particularly in encouraging repeat purchases. The research applied a quantitative survey method involving 90 respondents selected using Slovin’s formula. Respondents were customers who had made at least two purchases within the last month. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 26 with several statistical tests, including validity and reliability tests, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination (R²). The findings indicate that taste, customer experience, and digital marketing each have a positive and significant influence on repurchase intention, both partially and simultaneously. The R² value of 0.447 shows that 44.7% of the variation in repurchase intention is explained by these three variables. Therefore, it is recommended that business owners consistently maintain product quality, enhance customer experience, and optimize digital marketing to build customer loyalty and ensure long-term business sustainability.

This study examines the phenomenon of hoax news dissemination through the social media platform TikTok and its impact on Generation Z in Tanjung Pinang. The background of this research is based on the increasing intensity of TikTok usage among young people, making the platform not only a source of entertainment but also an alternative channel of information. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method, using in-depth interviews with ten respondents selected through purposive sampling. The findings reveal that although most members of Generation Z are aware of hoaxes, their ability to verify information remains limited, making them easily influenced by provocative viral content. The most common hoaxes encountered are related to political, health, and social issues, which may lead to public unrest and shape public perception. This study highlights the importance of digital literacy as the main defense against the flood of information in the new media era, as well as the need for collaboration among government, educational institutions, and society to strengthen critical awareness in the use of social media.

The development of information technology plays an important role in improving the quality of public services, including the processes of public complaints and grant submissions. Currently, these services at the Welfare Section of Situbondo Regency are still carried out manually, which often causes recurring problems such as delayed verification, lack of transparency in decision-making, and difficulties in data archiving and retrieval. These challenges not only slow down administrative processes but also reduce public trust in government services. Therefore, the design of a web-based information system is considered crucial to support the implementation of e-government and to ensure more effective, efficient, and accountable services. This study aims to design an integrated web-based information system that facilitates both public complaints and grant submissions within one platform. The research method applied is Object Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD), which emphasizes systematic analysis and modeling using the Unified Modeling Language (UML). The analysis phase includes identifying system requirements, business process modeling, and defining functional and non-functional needs. The design phase produces various models such as business process design, input-output forms, application architecture using a three-tier structure, UML diagrams (use case, activity, class, and sequence diagrams), and database modeling. The results of this research are expected to provide a system design that improves the speed of service delivery, enhances transparency through real-time status tracking, reduces the risk of data loss by implementing digital archiving, and increases efficiency in the verification process. Overall, the proposed system design contributes to strengthening good governance practices in Situbondo Regency and serves as a reference for similar developments in other local government institutions.

Sport tourism makes a significant contribution to the economy by increasing tourist participation and strengthening the appeal of tourist destinations. The Indonesian government’s policies in supporting culture-based sport tourism, such as Mepantigan, are reflected in various regulations and strategic programs. One of the key policies is the development of culture-based tourism as stated in the National Tourism Development Master Plan (RIPPN) 2011–2025, in which the government is committed to promoting and preserving local culture as part of tourism attractions. This study aims to design a sport tourism development model through educational videos of the Mepantigan attraction in Batubulan, Bali. Mepantigan is a traditional Balinese martial art that holds great potential as a culture- and sport-based tourism attraction. However, promotion of this attraction on digital platforms remains limited, with content that is not yet educational and relies only on a single social media channel. This study employs a qualitative method using in-depth interviews, participatory observation, documentation study, and focus group discussions. The results show that educational videos using cinematographic approaches and the AIDAS strategy are able to enhance the appeal of Mepantigan as part of sport tourism. The recommended innovative digital platform model includes the use of YouTube and TikTok to reach a wider audience as well as the application of visual techniques such as slow motion to highlight the cultural values and philosophy of Mepantigan. This research is expected to serve as a reference for the development of culture-based sport tourism promotion through digital media. The appropriate development strategy is a growth strategy through the optimization of multichannel digital media (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok) using educational video instruments as the main promotional tool, while simultaneously strengthening Mepantigan branding as an innovative sport tourism attraction in Bali.

The Community Service (PKM) program for the 2025 academic year in Buntu Datu Tourism Village, Mengkendek District, Tana Toraja Regency, aims to enhance the human resources (HR) capacity in managing community-based tourism villages. This village has great tourism potential, supported by basic facilities such as gazebos, halls, camping areas, and food stalls that cater to tourists’ activities. However, tourism village management still faces challenges such as limited facilities, low digital promotion skills, lack of innovation in developing tourist attractions, and suboptimal use of village funds to support the tourism sector. The PKM implementation methods involve socialization, training, interviews, field observations, and Focus Group Discussions (FGD) with the community, village officials, and tourism awareness groups (Pokdarwis). Through a participatory approach, this activity successfully improved the community's understanding of destination management, tourist services, facility management, and digital promotion strategies via social media and online platforms. Although the impact was limited due to the relatively short duration of the assistance, the activity received high appreciation from the community and emphasized the importance of collaboration between the community, government, and academics. It is hoped that follow-up programs will strengthen local capacity, enhance tourism attractiveness, and support the sustainable economic welfare of the Buntu Datu Tourism Village community.

This study aims to explore guest experience as a benchmark for service quality in four-star hotels in Bali. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, the research was conducted at two representative hotels, namely Four Points by Sheraton Bali, Kuta and The Anvaya Beach Resort Bali. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews with 20 guests who had stayed for at least one night within the past six months, online review analysis from platforms such as Booking.com and TripAdvisor, as well as participatory observations in service areas.The findings reveal that the dimensions of service quality most influencing guest experience include staff responsiveness, facility comfort, and the authenticity of services that integrate local culture. Guests appreciated staff friendliness and professionalism, room cleanliness, and personal touches such as being greeted by name or receiving special attention, which created positive emotional experiences. However, several weaknesses were also identified, such as delays in room service during peak hours and inconsistent maintenance of facilities. These results are consistent with the SERVQUAL model (Parasuraman et al., 1988), which emphasizes five key dimensions, but this study highlights the emotional experience dimension, which has been less explored in hospitality research in Bali. This study makes a theoretical contribution by broadening the understanding of the relationship between service quality and guest experience, particularly in the context of four-star hotels that are characterized by high service standards and intense competition. The practical implications suggest that hotel management should strengthen service personalization, ensure consistency in staff reliability and responsiveness, and enhance the integration of local cultural values as a differentiation strategy to increase competitiveness. Thus, guest experience can serve as a primary indicator that not only reflects service quality but also builds customer loyalty and strengthens the hotel’s positive image among both domestic and international tourists.

Islamic law faces significant challenges from the rapid advancements in bioethics and artificial intelligence (AI). The current responsive approach, based on ad-hoc fatwas, is deemed inadequate to address the systemic ethical dilemmas posed by these disruptive technologies. This research aims to propose a proactive and systematic ijtihad framework capable of anticipating and guiding technological innovation to align with the higher objectives of Shari'ah (Maqasid al-Shari'ah). Using a qualitative, library-based method with a juridical-normative and philosophical approach, this study analyzes primary and secondary Islamic legal sources through the Maqasid al-Shari'ah theoretical framework. The research finds the current model to be limited and, as a solution, offers a novelty in the form of the Hierarchical Model of Technological Ijtihad (HI-Tech). This model is a structured, interdisciplinary reasoning process, supported by a proposed institution, the Bio-Artificial Ijtihad Council (MIBA), and a digital platform, "Nur-Fatwa," for dissemination. The implication of these findings is the need for a paradigm shift for Islamic legal institutions towards an anticipatory, interdisciplinary, and institutionalized approach to address contemporary technological issues, thereby ensuring the continued relevance of Islamic law.
