The mechanism of state debt management is a process involving fiscal and monetary policies to regulate the issuance, use, and repayment of state debt. In its management, the government usually uses instruments such as bonds, bilateral loans, and multilateral loans to finance the budget deficit. State debt can be used to fund infrastructure projects, health, education, and other important sectors, but its management must be careful so as not to burden the economy. One important aspect of debt management is maintaining the debt ratio to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) so that it remains under control. If state debt increases significantly without being balanced by economic growth, it can pose a risk of inflation, a larger budget deficit, and a reduction in market confidence in the government's ability to repay debt. On the other hand, good debt management can encourage economic growth by financing productive projects that increase competitiveness and public welfare. Strict supervision of debt allocation and transparency in the use of funds are essential to avoid misuse and increase the effectiveness of debt management. In addition, the role of international institutions such as the IMF and the World Bank is also crucial in providing technical advice and support for sustainable debt management policies.

Decision Support System (DSS) is a system used to assist decision makers in determining the best alternative based on certain criteria. Determining retirement eligibility for ASN (State Civil Apparatus) employees is one of the important aspects in human resource management, where this decision affects the future of employee careers, their welfare, and state budget management. This study proposes the development of a decision support system for determining retirement eligibility for ASN employees using the Multi-Attribute Decision Making (MADM) method. The MADM method is a decision-making technique that considers several criteria and alternatives to produce optimal decisions. In this study, the criteria used to determine retirement eligibility include retirement age, length of service, work performance, health, and other factors relevant to the applicable pension policy. The method used in this system includes several steps, namely identifying criteria, assigning weights to each criterion, and evaluating alternatives based on these criteria using calculation techniques such as AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) or TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution). The results of this evaluation will provide recommendations on whether an employee is eligible for retirement or can still continue his career. The developed system is expected to facilitate the decision-making process regarding ASN employee retirement by providing objective and transparent analysis, so that the decisions taken are more appropriate and in accordance with applicable policies. Thus, this system can improve efficiency and effectiveness in human resource management in government agencies.

Early childhood is experiencing a period of very rapid growth and development. Children's health and nutrition greatly affect the growth and development process. Therefore, health care and nutrition are very much needed to optimize children's development. In general, maintaining children's health which aims to prevent children from contracting a disease, which can interfere with children's learning and intelligence, can be done through: a) maintaining children's personal hygiene and their environment, b) timely immunization, c) maintaining the types of food consumed by children. Children's health care is also adjusted to the child's development. The intensity of health services provided to infants is certainly higher than that of children. This is because at the age of infants, they cannot be independent and still need full assistance from adults. While at the age of children, they must be accustomed and trained to be independent in maintaining personal health with light activities (with parental supervision). As educators, they are required to be able to provide behavioral stimuli and knowledge about how to maintain health in children. Efforts to maintain children's health begin with implementing clean and healthy living habits in everyday life

This study aims to explore the impact of long-term hijab use on women's hair health. Hair is considered an important part of one's appearance and is often seen as an indicator of physical well-being. The research began after a proposal seminar and was conducted at the Department of Beauty and Cosmetology at Padang State University.Based on existing literature, the use of the hijab can affect hair condition because it covers the head continuously, which may restrict air circulation and increase moisture on the scalp area.

Leunca leaves are rich in bioactive compounds such as tannins, alkaloids, flavonoids, phenols and steroids, making it possible to use them as an antibacterial. This community service aims to empower the community by introducing and involving them in the production of herbal emulgel from Leunca leaf extract (Solanum nigrum), which had potential as a natural antibacterial agent, particularly for skin care. Leunca leaves, rich in bioactive compounds such as alkaloids and flavonoids, had antibacterial properties that can effectively treat skin infections. Through counseling and practical training, the community is taught how to process Leunca leaves into an emulgel formulation that is easy to use and has health benefits. The method of this community service was carried out through presentations, distribution of modules, and demonstrations of emulgel production to the community. Evaluation results showed an increase in community knowledge about the benefits of Leunca leaves as a natural antibacterial agent, with knowledge improving from 15% to 80% after the counseling. It is hoped that this initiative will raise awareness and promote the use of local herbal ingredients in skin care, as well as open up opportunities for herbal-based entrepreneurship that can improve the community's well-being
