This study aims to critically analyze the determination of the Tax Base (Dasar Pengenaan Pajak/DPP) in the withholding tax mechanism under Article 23 of the Indonesian Income Tax Law for freight forwarding services at PT MPX Indonesia. The research focuses on evaluating the implementation of the “All-In” billing model, where all operational costs are consolidated into a single gross invoice amount and treated as the taxable base. This approach raises concerns regarding its compliance with applicable tax regulations, particularly in distinguishing between service fees and reimbursable expenses. The study employs a qualitative descriptive method using a case study approach. Data are collected through documentation analysis of transaction records, including invoices and Unified Income Tax withholding receipts. The findings are expected to provide insights into the appropriateness of the applied tax base determination method and its implications for tax compliance and efficiency within the company’s operational practices and financial reporting system.

This study aims to analyze innovations in official travel administration based on information technology in supporting the efficiency of regional government budgets. This research employs a qualitative approach using the Qualitative Secondary Analysis (QSA) method by utilizing various secondary data sources, such as policy documents, government reports, and relevant research and academic journals. The results indicate that the implementation of an information technology-based official travel administration system has successfully transformed bureaucratic processes from manual to digital systems. The submission, approval, execution, and reporting of official travel, which were previously carried out through physical documents, can now be conducted through an integrated electronic system. The digitalization of administrative processes has had a significant impact on improving the efficiency of administrative service time. Employees no longer need to go through lengthy bureaucratic procedures to obtain travel approval, as the entire process can be conducted online through an application system. This aligns with the concept of digital transformation in government, which emphasizes the utilization of information technology to enhance the efficiency of public organizations. The implementation of an information technology-based official travel administration system also increases transparency and accountability in managing official travel budgets. The digital system allows all administrative processes related to official travel to be systematically recorded and electronically documented. With a digital system in place, the potential for misuse of official travel funds such as fictitious trips, duplicate activities, or manipulation of expense reports can be minimized.

This study examines transparency and state financial oversight in the implementation of the Free Nutritious Meals Program. It employs a qualitative approach based on a literature review of various policy sources, government reports, and relevant news coverage. The results of the analysis indicate that the government has made efforts to strengthen governance through the development of digital reporting mechanisms and by enhancing the capacity of program implementers via e-learning systems and financial reporting applications for a partners of the Nutrition Service Units (SPPG). Strengthening and greater transparency of information regarding the allocation and implementation of the program’s budget are needed to ensure public access, thereby realizing transparent and accountable public financial management in the implementation of the Free Nutritious Meals Program.

Attention mechanisms have been widely incorporated into recurrent neural network architectures for financial time series forecasting, with most prior work reporting improvements in price-level error metrics. This study revisits that claim through a controlled empirical comparison of four deep learning architectures on nearly two decades of Telkom Indonesia (TLKM) closing price data from the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The models evaluated are a three-layer Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) baseline, a comparable Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network, a Bahdanau end-attention GRU (Attn-GRU-V2), and a multi-head self-attention GRU hybrid (Attn-GRU-V3). Each architecture is trained over 30 independent runs with distinct random seeds, and performance is reported as 95% confidence intervals derived from the t-distribution. Statistical comparisons employ the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, a nonparametric paired test appropriate given the confirmed non-normality of residuals. The main finding is a consistent trade-off: the plain GRU achieves the lowest RMSE (94.02 ± 1.22 IDR) across all 30 runs, while Attn-GRU-V2 achieves the highest directional accuracy (45.91 ± 0.09%), surpassing GRU in every independent run. Bahdanau attention weights are nearly uniform across the 30-day lookback window (coefficient of variation: 3.21%), indicating that the mechanism cannot identify selectively informative timesteps in this univariate price series. This finding is consistent with the weak-form Efficient Market Hypothesis for the Indonesian market. An ablation study reveals that a 20-day lookback window maximizes directional accuracy (47.72 ± 0.21%) for the Attn-GRU-V2 model. These results suggest that Bahdanau end-attention consistently and significantly improves directional accuracy relative to a plain GRU baseline, providing an architecturally attributable advantage for direction-based applications, even when absolute price-level error is not reduced. The directional accuracy values remaining below 50% across all models are consistent with a weak-form efficiency characterization of the Indonesian market.

This research aims to describe the forms and functions of representative speech acts found in the YouTube video “The Basic Concept of Understanding Humans” by Cania Citta. The study arises from the phenomenon of digital communication, which demonstrates a shift in speech patterns from merely delivering information to constructing intellectual discourse that is both reflective and argumentative. A descriptive qualitative method with a pragmatic approach was employed. The data, consisting of representative utterances, were collected through observation and note-taking techniques on video transcripts, then analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model, which involves data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the dominant representative speech acts include stating, explaining, reporting, concluding, and speculating. Each utterance functions not only to convey information but also to build rational argumentation and foster critical awareness among audiences regarding the concept of humanity. Illocutionarily, these utterances perform informative, argumentative, and reflective functions, emphasizing the speaker’s epistemic responsibility toward the truth of the propositions delivered. The perlocutionary effects include an increased interest and heightened critical awareness among audiences concerning philosophical issues about human nature. This study contributes to the development of pragmatic studies, particularly in understanding the role of language as an instrument of knowledge and persuasion in digital media.

This study aims to analyze the application of good governance principles in the management of ECE grants by regional governments, focusing on aspects of transparency, accountability, public participation, and legal certainty. The study employs a qualitative approach using Qualitative Secondary Analysis (QSA), analyzing various secondary data sources such as policy documents, government reports, previous research findings, and relevant academic literature on education grant management. Data analysis was conducted systematically through data reduction, categorization, interpretation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that the implementation of transparency in ECE grant management is reflected in the openness of information regarding grant application procedures, recipient selection mechanisms, and fund usage reporting. Accountability is realized through administrative and financial accountability mechanisms that must be fulfilled by both regional governments and ECE institutions receiving the grants. Public participation is evident from the involvement of communities, ECE institution managers, and parents in the planning, implementation, and supervision of the grant program. Meanwhile, legal certainty in grant management is demonstrated by the existence of regulations that clearly govern grant provision mechanisms, fund disbursement procedures, and obligations for reporting and accountability in fund utilization. The study concludes that the application of good governance principles in the management of ECE grants by regional governments plays a crucial role in enhancing transparency, accountability, and effectiveness in educational fund management. Furthermore, community involvement and regulatory certainty serve as key supporting factors in achieving better governance of education grants.

Information technology advancements have sparked a digital revolution in village government operations, especially in tracking and assessing village officials' performance. Performance evaluation is still done by hand in many village government organizations, which frequently causes reporting delays, ineffective data processing, and a lack of transparency in the evaluation process. In order to facilitate a more efficient and organized monitoring and performance evaluation process, an information system therefore required. In order to support the management village apparatus data, performance assessment procedures, and integrated reporting, this study intends design and develop a web-based monitoring system for assessing the performance village officials. To represent the system processes in an organized way, the system design is modeled using the Unified Modeling Language (UML), which includes use case diagrams, activity diagrams, and sequence diagrams. To make sure that every system function performs in accordance with user requirements, system testing is carried out using the Black Box Testing method. The findings demonstrate the system's ability handle village apparatus data, carry out automated performance evaluation procedures, compute final scores using assessment indicators, and produce precise performance reports. It is anticipated that the system's implementation will enhance the village officials' performance monitoring procedure's efficacy, efficiency, transparency, and structure.

Collecting donations for natural disaster victims is a form of social solidarity widely practiced by the community, including students. However, in practice, these fundraising activities must be carried out in accordance with applicable legal provisions, specifically Regulation of the Minister of Social Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia Number 8 of 2021 concerning the Implementation of the Collection of Money or Goods (PUB). This study aims to analyze the implementation of Ministerial Regulation Number 8 of 2021 in the practice of collecting donations for natural disasters by students. The research method used is a normative empirical research method with a legislative and sociological approach. Data were obtained through literature review and interviews with the Social Services Agency and student organizations. The results show that the implementation of Ministerial Regulation Number 8 of 2021 in student fundraising activities has actually taken place, but is not yet fully optimal. This is evident in the continued discovery of donation collections carried out without official permits from authorized agencies and the lack of accountability reporting for collected funds. This condition indicates that the level of compliance with administrative provisions in the implementation of fundraising is still relatively low. Therefore, increased regulatory dissemination, more effective oversight, and increased legal awareness among students are needed to ensure that fundraising activities are carried out transparently, accountably, and in accordance with applicable laws.

Emotional mental health in adolescents is an important focus because this age group is highly vulnerable to academic and social pressures, as well as the demands of personal development. Emotional problems such as anxiety, stress, and depression that are not recognized early on can interfere with concentration, social relationships, and psychological well-being. This study aims to review the literature related to the early detection of emotional mental disorders in adolescents, so that it can serve as a basis for the development of prevention and intervention strategies. The method used is a literature review, analyzing a number of recent research articles discussing risk factors, symptoms, and early screening methods using instruments such as the Self Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ) and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). The results of the study show that the most common symptoms include anxiety, fatigue, concentration disorders, and relationship problems with peers in adolescents, as well as academic pressure in students. Early screening has been proven to help identify individuals at risk so that intervention can be carried out more quickly. The use of technology, such as web-based expert systems, can also speed up the screening process and improve the accuracy of assessments. It is recommended that educational institutions and health services be more active in conducting mental health screening, providing promotional education, and designing preventive programs. Further research should use analytical or experimental designs to explore risk factors and the effectiveness of interventions in greater depth.

This study aims to design and develop a web-based waste collection scheduling system using PHP and MySQL at the Environmental Agency of West Sumba Regency. The main problem faced is that the scheduling process is still carried out manually, resulting in inefficiency, susceptibility to errors, and difficulties in monitoring and reporting. The system development method used is the Waterfall model, which includes requirement analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and maintenance stages. The developed system provides features for managing data on personnel, regions, vehicles, and structured waste collection scheduling. In addition, the system is equipped with notification features, schedule monitoring, and performance reporting that can be accessed by management. The results of this study indicate that the system improves effectiveness and efficiency in scheduling processes and facilitates supervision of waste collection activities. Therefore, the implementation of this system is expected to optimize and organize waste management in West Sumba Regency.

Bullying in the school environment is a social health problem that has a massive impact on children’s physical, mental, and social well-being. As the primary educational environment, schools need to implement a structured, safe, and child-friendly bullying reporting system. Objective: This conceptual study aims to design the implementation of a bullying reporting system based on school health administration using the functional management approach: planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling (POAC). The methods and components of the reporting system are designed through the four POAC pillars, namely the establishment of an Anti-Bullying Team, the preparation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), the provision of child-friendly reporting media both physical and digital through the School Health Unit (UKS), and the development of monitoring and evaluation mechanisms (controlling). School health administration is used as an initial screening tool to identify indications of victim trauma discreetly and safely. The implementation of this POAC-based system is expected to improve the early detection of bullying cases, accelerate case handling responses, and eliminate stigma and fear of reporting among children. Conclusion: The integration of health administration and POAC management has proven to be a strong framework for creating a safe, inclusive school environment that strongly supports students’ mental health recovery.

The spread of Non-Consensual Intimate Images (NCII) has become one of the most damaging forms of technology-based sexual violence in Indonesia. Komnas Perempuan data consistently shows a year-on-year rise in gender-based online violence reports, while SAFEnet documented hundreds of NCII cases between 2017 and 2023. Before Law Number 12 of 2022 on the Crime of Sexual Violence (TPKS Law) was enacted, Article 27 paragraph (1) of the Electronic Information and Transactions Law (ITE Law) was the only legal basis for handling NCII — a provision that frequently revictimized survivors rather than protecting them. This study examines: (1) how NCII is regulated under the TPKS Law; and (2) the effectiveness of the TPKS Law in addressing NCII cases, analyzed through Lawrence M. Friedman's three-component theory of legal effectiveness: legal substance, legal structure, and legal culture. Normative legal research was applied using statutory, conceptual, and analytical approaches. The study finds that Article 14 of the TPKS Law provides a substantially stronger and more victim-centred legal basis than previous regulations. However, effectiveness is still hampered by inadequate law enforcement capacity, uneven availability of integrated service units (UPTD PPA), low survivor reporting rates linked to persistent stigma, and a pervasive victim-blaming culture. Law reform alone is insufficient; structural and cultural transformation must accompany it.

This study aims to determine the effect of green accounting, profitability, leverage, and company size on tax aggressiveness. The population in this study is energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the financial reporting period 2020-2024. The sampling technique used in this study is purposive sampling, and a sample of 35 companies was obtained. The analysis technique used is multiple linear regression analysis using SPSS version 22.0. The results of this study indicate that green accounting has a positive and significant effect on tax aggressiveness, profitability has a positive and significant effect on tax aggressiveness, leverage does not have a significant effect on tax aggressiveness, and company size does not have a significant effect on tax aggressiveness. The results show that green accounting and profitability have a positive and significant influence on tax aggressiveness, while leverage and firm size do not significantly influence tax aggressiveness. These findings provide insight that companies with a concern for environmental impacts tend to implement more aggressive tax policies, and that more profitable companies have an incentive to optimize their tax management.

The implementation of PSAK 73, which adopted IFRS 16, brought fundamental changes to lease financial reporting, triggering various challenges for financial performance and corporate policy. The primary issue examined in this literature was the impact of lease capitalization on financial ratios, dividend policy, and potential earnings management. The overall objective of this study was to evaluate the differences in financial performance before and after the implementation of the new standard, as well as to identify the determinants of dividend policy across various sectors. The dominant method employed was a quantitative approach using comparative analysis and panel data regression on companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Key findings indicated that the implementation of PSAK 73 significantly increased total assets and liabilities (leverage), yet tended to decrease profitability ratios such as Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE). Furthermore, dividend policy was found to be significantly influenced by profitability and the new capital structure resulting from lease capitalization  

This study aimed to analyze the relationship between nurses’ interpersonal conflict and job satisfaction at Hospital X Depok in 2025. Interpersonal conflict in the workplace may negatively affect nurses’ psychological well-being, performance, and quality of healthcare services, thereby reducing job satisfaction. This research employed a correlational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of all nurses working at Hospital X Depok, totaling 151 individuals, with a final sample of 121 respondents selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using three instruments: a demographic questionnaire, an interpersonal conflict questionnaire based on Wexley’s theory, and the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ) short form to measure job satisfaction. Data analysis was conducted using univariate statistics and the Chi-Square test with a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that 55.4% of respondents experienced low interpersonal conflict, while 44.6% experienced high interpersonal conflict. Job satisfaction levels were relatively balanced, with 50.4% of nurses reporting high satisfaction and 49.6% reporting low satisfaction. The Chi-Square test indicated a significant relationship between interpersonal conflict and job satisfaction (p = 0.000). Nurses experiencing low interpersonal conflict tended to have higher job satisfaction, whereas those experiencing high interpersonal conflict predominantly reported low satisfaction. These findings highlight the importance of effective conflict management strategies, supportive leadership, and strengthened interpersonal communication to enhance nurses’ job satisfaction and improve the quality of healthcare services.

This study aims to analyze the organizational performance of the Dinas Kebudayaan dan Pariwisata Kota Tanjungpinang in managing the tourism sector. Tanjungpinang has significant cultural and historical tourism potential; however, tourist visit trends remain fluctuating and unstable. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a case study method and library research as the data collection technique. Data were obtained from official government documents, statistical data from the Central Bureau of Statistics, and relevant previous studies. The analysis is based on the public sector organizational performance theory proposed by Agus Dwiyanto, focusing on two main indicators: productivity and accountability.   The findings indicate that administratively the agency has consistently implemented programs and organized cultural events in accordance with planning documents. However, the increase in the number of activities has not consistently contributed to stable growth in tourist visits. In terms of accountability, reporting mechanisms have been implemented, yet substantive transparency and public access to information still require improvement. Therefore, the organizational performance can be categorized as administratively adequate but requires enhancement in program effectiveness and public transparency.

Fixed asset management is a crucial component in supporting the performance of local governments. However, the Polewali Mandar Regency Government still faces obstacles in managing assets conventionally, such as the risk of recording errors, duplicate data, and difficulties in field data verification which is time-consuming. This study aims to design and build a Web-Based Fixed Asset Management Information System integrated with Quick Response Code (QR Code) technology as a digital solution for real-time asset data collection, tracking, and monitoring. The approach taken for system development is known as the Waterfall approach, encompassing the phases of analyzing requirements, system design, execution, evaluation, and ongoing support. The creation of the system was carried out utilizing the PHP coding language, the MySQL database system, and Tailwind CSS to achieve a mobile-friendly interface. Data collection techniques were conducted through observation, interviews, and literature studies at the General Affairs Division of the Regional Secretariat of Polewali Mandar Regency. The result of this research is a fixed asset management information system featuring the generation of unique QR Code labels for each asset, category and location management, and reporting features divided into three access levels: Admin, Operator, and Verificator. Based on the system testing results, an average score of above 4.00 was obtained for indicators of ease of use (user-friendly), access speed, and information accuracy. In conclusion, the implementation of this QR Code-based system is proven to increase the efficiency of the asset identification process in the field, minimize manual input errors, and improve accountability in regional asset management in Polewali Mandar Regency.

This study conceptually examines the influence of assurer type, assurance standards, and assurance level on the breadth of assurance statements in sustainability reports. Moving beyond prior literature that treats assurance as a binary variable (presence versus absence), this paper highlights disclosure breadth as a critical dimension of assurance quality and substance. Drawing on legitimacy theory and complemented by institutional theory, the study argues that the technical configuration of assurance shapes the quality of organizational legitimacy obtained by firms. Specifically, the type of assurer (public accounting firms versus non-accounting providers), the standards adopted (e.g., ISAE 3000 and/or AA1000AS), and the level of assurance (limited versus reasonable) influence the structure, systematic presentation, and comprehensiveness of assurance statements. Firms that engage reputable providers, apply globally institutionalized standards, and select reasonable assurance are more likely to issue broader and more detailed statements. In contrast, weaker institutional pressures may encourage symbolic assurance practices characterized by minimal disclosure. The study contributes theoretically by extending legitimacy theory to the technical dimensions of assurance and positioning disclosure breadth as a proxy for substantive legitimacy. Practically, it suggests that regulators and companies should emphasize transparency and comprehensiveness in assurance statements to enhance credibility and discourage symbolic sustainability reporting practices.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of bureaucratic reform in improve the administrative performance of the Sorong City Regional Secretariat. The research uses a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative methods. Quantitative data were obtained by distributing questionnaires to 30 government apparatus respondents using the Likert scale and were analyzed using descriptive statistics and correlation analysis. Meanwhile, qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews with key informants and analyzed using thematic analysis and data triangulation. The results of the study show that the implementation of bureaucratic reform is positively related to the organization's administrative performance. The variables of policy communication, apparatus resources, and bureaucratic structure show a fairly strong correlation with administrative performance, with bureaucratic structure exhibiting the strongest relationship. Qualitative findings also show that bureaucratic reform has been carried out through simplifying procedures, updating SOPs, digitizing administration, and strengthening the performance reporting system. Theoretically, this research strengthens policy implementation theory and public organizational performance theory, which emphasize the importance of policy communication, human resource capacity, and the effectiveness of organizational structures in improving bureaucratic performance. However, this study has limitations in scope, as it is confined to a single organizational unit and a relatively small number of respondents. Therefore, further research is suggested to expand the research object in several regional apparatus organizations in order to obtain a more comprehensive picture of the implementation of bureaucratic reform at the local government level.

Community service is one of the implementations of the Tri Dharma of Higher Education which aims to provide real contributions to society through the application of science and technology. This activity aims to improve the understanding of small and medium enterprise (SME) actors regarding the preparation of Investment Activity Reports (LKPM) at the Investment and One-Stop Integrated Service Office (DPMPTSP) of Serang City. The problem found in the field indicates that many business actors still do not fully understand the procedures for preparing and submitting investment activity reports. The method used in this activity is a descriptive method with a mentoring approach carried out through observation, socialization, and direct assistance to business actors. The results show an increase in the understanding of business actors regarding the importance of investment activity reports and their ability to prepare reports more systematically. This activity is expected to increase business actors' awareness of their reporting obligations and support the creation of more orderly and transparent investment management.
