This research focuses on the social integration of foreign nationals in Indonesia from the perspective of citizenship. Indonesia has become a favored destination for many foreigners who come to work, study, or seek refuge due to the increasing global mobility. However, the social integration process of foreign nationals in Indonesia faces several challenges, including restrictive citizenship policies and significant cultural and social differences. The aim of this study is to examine the factors that influence the social integration of foreign nationals in Indonesia and to provide policy recommendations that could facilitate a better integration process. This study employs a qualitative case study approach. Policy analysis, in-depth interviews with foreign nationals and local communities, as well as literature reviews from various sources, are all part of the process. The research findings indicate that Indonesia's strict citizenship policies, along with a lack of understanding and interaction between foreign nationals and local communities, are often major barriers to the integration process. The extent to which foreign nationals can integrate into society is influenced by access to education and employment, as well as community support. Additionally, the study compares the social integration processes of foreign nationals in Indonesia with those in countries such as the United States, Germany, and Australia; it was found that more inclusive policies and better-organized integration programs play a significant role in the success of foreign nationals' integration in these countries.

For managers, budgeting is a very important issue that affects the future survival of the organization. Given that key stakeholders are often involved in budget preparation, this preparation process raises questions regarding the relationship between participation in budget preparation and management motivation and performance. This article explains that when subordinates are involved in management, they are more likely to accept budget goals and therefore more motivated to participate in budget planning. Another aspect is that participation in budget preparation has a positive impact on budget adequacy. If the budget is decided unilaterally, the opposite will be true. This involvement motivates subordinates to be more proactive in achieving budget goals. From another perspective, subordinate participation in budgeting means that planning results are more realistic because subordinates have more accurate information about local conditions than superiors.

Community development programs are very important in reducing poverty and enhancing societal prosperity by improving quality of life, fostering economic empowerment, and promoting inclusivity. However, not all the programs have success as expected. This study examines ten evaluation studies of community development programs across various areas and tries to find common weaknesses. A qualitative analysis of evaluation studies identifies shortcomings in three domains i.e. program design and management, stakeholder engagement and participation, and external resource constraints. It is argued that these shortcomings are largely predictable and highlight the need for proactive strategies. The paper suggests that embedding risk management into the conception and implementation of community development programs can mitigate these challenges. A simplified framework adapted from project management practices is proposed, encompassing risk identification, measurement, assessment, evaluation, and control. By systematically integrating risk management, community programs can anticipate obstacles, strengthen accountability, and enhance their likelihood of success. Recommendations include applying risk management throughout program cycles and conducting post-implementation evaluations to inform future initiatives.

An early childhood child is an individual who actively interacts with individuals around them. From these direct interactions, children learn social norms and ethics that shape and develop their character. This study focused on the process of early childhood learning from the environment in developing their character from Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems theory framework. Eleven interviewees participated in this qualitative research. The findings revealed that at the mesosytem level, a learning environment in the community that is safe and supportive of children's growth and development will develop children's positive character. These results corroborated that positive interactions within the environmental layers in Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory will contribute positively to children's development. Parents and RuPin Coordinators unanimously stated that education contributes positively to children's growth and development. Even the smallest knowledge gained by children will affect their mindset and behavior, so a commitment to providing a safe and positively stimulating learning environment is important. From the perspective of Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory, an adequate learning environment for young children should involve positive interactions between various environmental systems: family, school, peers and community.

Along with the development of the times, we see many hotels experiencing changes. A change that is rarely reviewed as a news topic is the software overhaul that occurs in hotels from offline to online systems. Lay people only see changes in hotels from a visible perspective, without having to know whether the hotel's system and system applications have changed. One of the factors in system development at Hotel Cipta is the need for hotel management to prioritize the development of system applications from offline to online systems, even web-based. It is not easy to overhaul an existing system application compared to creating a new system application. There are several software engineering methods and models that are commonly used to analyze system needs and design systems in the software development process. One of them is the incremental delivery model. This makes it interesting to try to apply the incremental delivery model to the development of the Hotel Cipta information system application by taking place at the Hotel Cipta on KH. Wachid Hasyim Street, Central Jakarta. In this study, the object of research is the Front Office department.
