Java Island is the most disaster-prone region in Indonesia because Java Island is located in a convex zone (meeting each other) between two tectonic plates, namely the Eurasian Plate in the north, and the Indo-Australian Plate which causes the formation of volcanoes and earthquakes. Java Island which is near the convergence zone of these plates causes Java to become a disaster-prone zone, with many volcanoes that often erupt and experience many earthquakes. Volcanoes are formed due to the movement of hot magma from the meeting of plates to the earth's surface. While earthquakes occur due to the instantaneous movement of earth plates.

This research aims to analyze the influence of Regional Original Income (PAD), Special Allocation Funds (DAK), and General Allocation Funds (DAU) on the allocation of capital expenditure budgets on the island of Java. Capital expenditure is an important component in regional budgets that contributes directly to infrastructure development and improving public services. This study uses panel data from districts/cities on Java Island during the 2015-2020 period. The analytical method used is panel data regression with a fixed effects model (FEM) approach to identify the influence of independent variables on the dependent variable. The research results show that PAD has a positive and significant influence on capital expenditure. This indicates that regions with higher PAD tend to allocate more budget for capital expenditure. Meanwhile, DAK also has a positive and significant effect on capital expenditure, which shows that funds specifically allocated by the central government have succeeded in increasing investment in fixed assets in the regions. On the other hand, DAU was found to have a negative but insignificant effect on capital expenditure, indicating that general funds received from the central government did not directly encourage an increase in capital expenditure. This research provides important implications for regional policy makers in increasing PAD and utilizing transfer funds from the central government more effectively to accelerate the development of infrastructure and public services. Apart from that, the results of this research can also be a reference for further research in the field of regional finance and public budget management.  

PT Kereta Api Indonesia (KAI) is a company that monopolizes unrivaled rail transport services, but on Java Island it is vulnerable to competitors in other transport services sectors in the world. The purpose of this study was to find out whether the influence of price and quality of service on the satisfaction of railway consumers in the city of Solo Raya. Sampling technique using quota sampling and random sampling techniques with respondent criteria is consumer satisfaction in using railway services, which is 51 respondents. Data collection is done using questionnaires distributed online or electronically using Google Form support. The results of the study showed that the influence of price and quality of service has a significant influence on consumer satisfaction.

The Freedom to Learn Program has various innovative programs in the education development. The old educational model is now transformed into a more flexible, explorative, and borderless. Thus, the readiness of the teacher is very important. The Mover Teacher Program is a challenge where teachers are required to be more creative and adaptive to change. However, this concept has not been fully understood by teachers outside Java Island. Therefore, the training of Mover Teachers needs to be carried out in SMP N 2 Barru South Sulawesi. This activity is carried out via online with expert as the initial stage and offline, mentoring as the final stage. With these two methods are expected to get more effective results to increase the capacity of teacher resources in Barru. The output of this dedication is that teachers can think innovatively and be ready to become mover teacher to success independent learning program.
