The downstreaming of natural resources has emerged as a strategic policy implemented by the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs to strengthen Indonesia’s economic independence and reduce reliance on raw commodity exports. Grounded in the philosophical foundation of Pancasila, this policy emphasizes the principles of economic equality, national sovereignty, and sustainability, in line with the overarching goals of national development. This study aims to analyze the role of industrial downstreaming policies in enhancing national economic self-reliance through the integration of Pancasila values. Substantively, downstreaming increases value-added production, boosts domestic investment, and facilitates job creation, particularly in the mineral processing and agro-industrial sectors. Moreover, the policy contributes to reducing economic vulnerability to global market fluctuations and aligns with the Pancasila principles of social justice and collective welfare. However, several challenges remain, including infrastructure readiness, environmental sustainability, and inclusive participation of small and medium enterprises (SMEs). The research indicates that the industrial downstream sector, as regulated by the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs, plays a crucial role in realizing national economic autonomy, requiring its implementation to be aligned with Pancasila principles in order to balance economic progress with equity and sustainability.

This study aims to analyze students' perceptions of the concept of meritocracy in education management as an effort to prevent nepotism in the recruitment process for elementary school teachers. Meritocracy is seen as an approach that emphasizes individual competence, qualifications, and achievements in the selection process for educators, while nepotism is often an obstacle in creating a professional and ethical educational environment. This study uses a quantitative descriptive method with data collection through questionnaires distributed to students in education study programs who have acquired a basic understanding of educational management and teacher recruitment systems. The data were analyzed to describe the students' level of understanding, attitudes, and views on the application of meritocracy principles and their awareness of the negative impacts of nepotism in the world of education. The results show that the majority of students have a positive perception of meritocracy as a fair and effective system for improving the quality of educators. However, some students acknowledge that nepotism is still common in the education sector and is considered to undermine professionalism and public trust. These findings emphasize the importance of instilling meritocratic values from the university level and strengthening competency-based recruitment policies to support the creation of a transparent and high-quality education system.

This study aims to analyze the role of the Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD) in supervising the implementation of road infrastructure development programs in Bintan Regency. Using a qualitative approach based on literature studies, this study examines how the DPRD carries out its supervisory function to ensure transparency, efficiency, and accountability in the implementation of infrastructure projects. The results of the study show that although the DPRD has a constitutional mandate to carry out supervision, its implementation still faces various challenges. These challenges include limited competent human resources, weak political will to follow up on supervisory findings, and suboptimal coordination between the executive and the legislature. This condition has an impact on the effectiveness of supervision and the quality of infrastructure development that has not fully met the principles of good governance. This research emphasizes the importance of increasing the institutional capacity of the DPRD through training, strengthening regulations, and utilizing information technology. In addition, public participation in the supervision process also needs to be increased as a form of constructive social control. Thus, the DPRD's supervision of infrastructure development can run more effectively and contribute to the creation of sustainable, transparent, and accountable regional development.

Education serves as an institutional mechanism that can accelerate the development of a nation's character. Factors influencing the decline of the Indonesian nation are the result of mental and moral decline, which occurs in both the older and younger generations, including within the government and among the wider community. These factors have resulted in the Indonesian nation experiencing setbacks in various positions in the world. To overcome this problem, the Indonesian nation needs to develop and build a life by instilling positive values ​​​​to develop good character and be able to compete with other countries in the era of globalization. Character education offers a great opportunity to implement the process of fostering and developing human beings, with education based on noble morals, namely Islamic education that integrates faith, sharia, and morals in a learning system that is based on Islamic morals and influences self-improvement. One of the advantages of Al-Islam for humanity is the creation of a comprehensive and consistent method for developing mentality, producing generations, building society and culture, and upholding the principles of glory and civilization. Child educators must continue to seek more effective methods, seeking informative educational rules in preparing children mentally and morally, scientifically, spiritually, and socially, so that children can reach perfect maturity.

The FIOS system that is not yet optimal causes vehicle location data to sometimes not match the unloading point that should be. This constraint requires additional manual processes that can hinder the effectiveness of the system. Therefore, this study recommends improving the information system and technical training for users to reduce errors and increase the effectiveness of e-invoice use as a whole.

This study aims to analyze copyright protection for the creators of new dance creations in Pontianak City. In the context of copyright protection, the registration of new dance creations, which are categorized as works of art reflecting local cultural identity, is a key step in preventing plagiarism or unauthorized use of works and the resulting damages. Through a normative empirical approach and data collected through interviews and literature studies, it was found that awareness of the importance of copyright exists, but knowledge about the mechanisms and benefits of copyright registration for new dance creations is not yet optimal. The results of this study are expected to enhance understanding of copyright protection and serve as a bridge for the government to gradually and selectively disseminate information.. The main obstacle faced by new creation dance creators in Pontianak City is the lack of knowledge and awareness about the mechanism of copyright registration and the benefits obtained from such registration. Many dance creators find the registration process complicated and expensive, so they are not interested in registering the copyright of their work. In addition, socialization from the government regarding the importance of copyright and how it is recorded.

Pantomime arts development in elementary schools plays a crucial role in fostering students' creativity, self-confidence, and expressive abilities. This study examines the transformation of pantomime development at SDN 1 Beureunuen, a school that hosts the National Student Arts Festival and Competition (FLS3N) in Mutiara Timur District, Pidie Regency. Using an active qualitative approach through participant observation, informal interviews, and documentation of participant development from 2019 to 2025, this study examines how creative pedagogy practices, constructivist approaches, and strengthening cultural identity are applied in the development process. The results show a significant increase in school participation in pantomime competitions, from only three groups in 2019 to twelve groups in 2025. SDN 1 Beureunuen's success in winning the gold medal at the national level in the FLS3N has been a driving factor in the paradigm shift of teachers, which in turn has encouraged the creation of a competitive arts ecosystem at the sub-district level. These findings confirm that the implementation of creative pedagogy and tiered development can improve the quality of arts learning and strengthen the capacity of teachers and students in areas with minimal resources.

This study provides an overview of Coretax’s contribution to supporting the digital transformation of Indonesia’s tax system while identifying obstacles that must be addressed to ensure optimal system performance.

Indonesia's cultural diversity demands a process of inculturation, in which local values ​​enter into dialogue with faith. This study examines the Lodong Me tradition in Sikka, East Nusa Tenggara, as a ritual of thanksgiving for birth that is essential and relevant amidst the challenges of modernity. The aim is to describe the meaning of Lodong Me and analyze its encounter with Christian faith through an inculturation approach. Using a qualitative approach with a case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews with key informants and tested using source triangulation. The results show that Lodong Me is interpreted culturally and theologically as gratitude for divine grace, where gratitude to ancestors and God (Ama Pu) is placed in a harmonious arrangement. This ritual has been proven to meet the criteria for genuine adaptation because it has compatible values ​​(such as work ethic and responsibility to care for creation) and effectively strengthens the congregation's faith experience. By implication, this case study enriches the literature on inculturation in Indonesia and makes an important contribution to the Church's pastoral care in Sikka to prevent duality of belief.

The Community Service Program (Kuliah Kerja Nyata / KKN) carried out by students of Nusa Nipa University Indonesia in Wolorega Village represents a community service initiative aimed at strengthening village identity and improving public service accessibility. The Community Service Program (Kuliah Kerja Nyata / KKN) of Nusa Nipa University Indonesia is one of the compulsory academic activities that reflects the implementation of the Tri Dharma Perguruan Tinggi, particularly in the field of community service. This program aims to provide real contributions to village development, improve the quality of public services, and strengthen the relationship between students and the local community. One of the work programs carried out by the KKN group in Wolorega Village was the creation of a village name board as an identity marker for the Village Office.                                                                                                                                The background of this activity lies in the absence of a proper and representative village name board, which often caused difficulties for both local residents and visitors in locating the village office. This situation affected the effectiveness of administrative services. Therefore, the KKN students took the initiative to design and construct a new village name board to strengthen the village’s identity and improve public service facilities.  The implementation method included several stages: coordination with the village head and officials, designing the name board, procuring materials and equipment, constructing and painting the board, and finally installing it in front of the Wolorega Village Office. The entire process was carried out in collaboration with village officials and with active participation from the local community. The results of this activity show that the village name board was successfully built and installed. Its presence provides significant benefits, such as making it easier for the community to locate the Wolorega Village Office, clarifying the village’s official identity, and enhancing the image of the village government as a well-organized and professional institution. In addition, this activity received positive appreciation from village officials and the community because it effectively addressed an existing problem.  In conclusion, the creation of the village name board is not only a physical facility improvement but also a tangible form of contribution from the students of Nusa Nipa University Indonesia in supporting village development and improving public services in Wolorega Village.  

This article traces the evolution of modern public administration from Weberian rational bureaucracy to contemporary ideas of adaptive bureaucracy. We synthesize four classic books and eleven peer‑reviewed journal articles to map paradigm shifts from traditional bureaucracy to New Public Management (NPM), New Public Governance (NPG), digital‑era governance, complexity leadership, collaborative governance, and organizational resilience. Using an integrative literature review, we (1) compare core design logics (structure, coordination, decision rights, and accountability) across paradigms; (2) distill a five‑pillar conceptual model of adaptive bureaucracy—ambidextrous structure, agile learning processes, networked/collaborative governance, data‑driven/digital capabilities, and resilience/risk governance; and (3) advance actionable propositions for reform. We argue that adaptive bureaucracy reconciles rule‑bound reliability with continuous adaptation by coupling Weberian legality and due process with exploration, co‑creation, and digital enablement. The model clarifies how public organizations can meet volatility and complexity without sacrificing legitimacy. Implications include redesigning roles and incentives for exploration–exploitation balance, codifying agile yet auditable routines, scaling collaborative platforms, and investing in socio‑technical data infrastructure and resilience exercises. The article contributes a structured bridge between classic administrative rationality and contemporary adaptive governance suitable for volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) contexts.

Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) are regulated in Article 1 Paragraph (6) of the Regulation of the Minister of Home Affairs Number 39 of 2010, which states that BUMDes is a business formed by the village government with its ownership and management involving the village government and the community. BUMDesa Kareka Nduku, although it functions as a village economic empowerment institution, faces a number of challenges in its operations. Some of the main problems faced are difficulties in recording agricultural assets and tools, as well as the insynchronization between stock records in warehouses and records in the treasurer, which leads to frequent shortages of fertilizer and insecticide stocks. In addition, the manual recording process for capital and business loans causes the creation of monthly reports to take a long time, even more than an hour, and there are often errors because officers have to check daily reports from various fields. This resulted in delays in making reports that should have been submitted by the BUMDes.

This study aims to evaluate and improve the user interface (UI/UX) design of the e-learning platform at MTsN 33 Jakarta using the User Centered Design (UCD) method. This method is applied to identify user needs and preferences through observation, interviews, and questionnaires, and to generate design solutions focused on comfort and ease of use. The development process begins with the creation of a wireframe (low-fidelity prototype), followed by the creation of a high-fidelity prototype using Figma software. Evaluation is conducted using the System Usability Scale (SUS) to measure the usability of the system, comparing the old system and the new design. The analysis results show that the old design has an average SUS score of 48.71, categorized as "Not Acceptable" with a "Poor" rating, while the new design achieved a score of 82.00, categorized as "Acceptable" with an "Excellent" rating. These findings indicate that the application of UCD successfully improved usability and user experience, contributing significantly to the development of a more intuitive and responsive e-learning system that meets user needs.
