The relocation of the Social Welfare Shelter Environment (Lingkungan Pondok Sosial/Liponsos) in Sidoarjo represents a strategic effort to address social and spatial issues characterized by overcapacity, limited facilities, and an inadequate living environment that does not fully support the physical and psychological needs of people with social welfare problems (PMKS). These conditions indicate that the challenges faced by Liponsos are not merely social in nature but are also closely related to the quality of the built environment, which significantly influences the rehabilitation and recovery process of its residents. Therefore, a human-centered design approach is required in planning social service facilities. This study aims to analyze the application of humanistic architecture principles in the planned relocation of the Sidoarjo Liponsos as a foundation for creating a more livable, dignified, and user-oriented environment. The research employs a literature review method by collecting data from relevant books, journals, regulations, and previous studies. The analysis is conducted using descriptive and content analysis to examine the relationship between humanistic architectural principles and the needs of residents within social welfare facilities. The results indicate that the humanistic architectural approach is highly relevant to the relocation of Liponsos, particularly through spatial zoning based on levels of privacy and security, the provision of green open spaces and communal areas as media for social interaction and therapeutic activities, and the design of self-development spaces that support rehabilitation and empowerment. The implementation of these principles is expected to create a built environment that not only fulfills basic functional requirements but also supports psychological recovery, social stability, and sustainable improvement in the quality of life of PMKS residents.  

The implementation of the Global Minimum Tax (GMT) through Pillar Two of the OECD/G20 marks a fundamental change in the international tax architecture, especially for developing countries such as Indonesia. One of the key instruments in Pillar Two is the Qualified Domestic Minimum Top-Up Tax (QDMTT), which provides an opportunity for source countries to retain the right to tax the profits of multinational companies with an effective tax rate below 15 percent. This study aims to analyze Indonesia's readiness to face the implementation of GMT through the QDMTT policy, focusing on regulatory aspects and tax administration capacity. The research method uses literature studies with a qualitative-descriptive approach through the analysis of policy documents, tax regulations, as well as academic literature and international reports. The results of the study show that Indonesia's readiness is still in the transition stage. In terms of regulation, Indonesia has shown an initial commitment through the issuance of PMK Number 136 of 2024, but the regulation still needs to be strengthened at a higher level of regulation for long-term legal certainty. From the administrative aspect, the main challenges include the complexity of calculating jurisdiction-based Effective Tax Rates, cross-border data management, as well as increasing the capacity of human resources and information technology infrastructure. This study concludes that the success of QDMTT implementation in Indonesia depends on strengthening regulations, increasing tax administration capacity, and reformulating sustainable investment policies.

This research aims to analyze the implementation of the "Jalak Wadul Mas" (Jawa Timur Layanan Pengaduan Warga dan Dukungan Masyarakat/East Java Citizen Complaint Service and Community Support) innovation program in improving the welfare of people with social welfare problems (PMKS) in East Java Province. The Social Service of East Java Province developed this program as an integrated digital platform for complaint handling, social assistance distribution, and empowerment of vulnerable groups. Using the policy implementation theory from Edward III, this study examines four critical factors: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. This qualitative research employs a descriptive approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation at the Social Service of East Java Province during June-August 2025. Informants include program managers, field social workers, PMKS beneficiaries, and community stakeholders. The results indicate that the Jalak Wadul Mas program has successfully served 45,678 PMKS across 38 districts/cities in East Java, with a 78% complaint resolution rate and average response time of 3 working days. The program integrates multiple services, including emergency assistance, rehabilitation referrals, skills training, and economic empowerment. Key success factors include strong leadership commitment, adequate technology infrastructure, and collaborative networks with community organizations. Challenges remain in human resource capacity, internet connectivity in remote areas, and cross-sectoral coordination. This study recommends strengthening digital literacy training for beneficiaries, expanding mobile service units, developing real-time monitoring dashboards, and establishing sustainable funding mechanisms.

According to Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory, mental disorders occur due to conflicts between the id, ego, and superego that give rise to anxiety and abnormal behavior. At the Pamardi Raharjo Banjarnegara Social Service House, this conflict is diverted through a skills guidance program that aims to improve the independence and quality of life of Beneficiaries (PM). The program includes training in doormat crafts, salted egg making, paving blocks, and flannel crafts, each of which is guided by a dedicated mentor and followed by a stabilized PM. The activity of making mats aims to train motor skills and social interaction and produce products with selling value. The making of salted eggs not only teaches production skills, but also fosters confidence and economic independence. Paving block activities are more focused on motor training and cooperation between PMs even though they are not yet worth selling. Meanwhile, flannel handicrafts guided by Mbak Retno became a new activity that provided space for expression and creativity. All of these activities are designed to distract PM's passive behavior and equip them with useful practical skills after leaving the orphanage. Thus, skills-based approaches have proven to be effective in supporting the overall rehabilitation and empowerment process of PM.

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh munculnya persoalan yuridis dalam pelaksanaan mekanisme Agunan yang Diambil Alih (AYDA) oleh perbankan, terutama terkait validasi Pajak Penghasilan atas Pengalihan Hak atas Tanah dan/atau Bangunan (PPh TB). Kasus BPR RAY memperlihatkan kebuntuan administratif akibat penolakan validasi pajak oleh DJP, yang menimbulkan ketidakpastian hukum dalam penyelamatan kredit bermasalah. Rumusan masalah mencakup: (1) bentuk pertentangan norma antara POJK 33/2018 dan PMK 261/2016; (2) penyebab disharmonisasi norma; dan (3) akibat hukumnya terhadap pelaksanaan AYDA. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi bentuk, penyebab, dan akibat hukum dari disharmonisasi tersebut. Metode yang digunakan ialah yuridis normatif dengan spesifikasi deskriptif-analitis melalui studi pustaka dan wawancara. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bentuk pertentangan antara PMK 261/2016 yang mengedepankan pendekatan formal kepemilikan dan POJK 33/2018 yang menekankan substansi penguasaan aset. Disharmonisasi ini disebabkan oleh pengambilalihan AYDA secara sukarela, penafsiran subjek pajak penghasilan, serta ketiadaan regulasi penghubung antarregulator. Akibat hukum disharmonisasi ini terjadi di sektor perbankan, perpajakan dan pertanahan. Hasil penelitian kemudian dianalisis menggunakan teori sistem hukum, teori hukum responsif dan teori keadilan distributif. Dari hasil penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan disharmonisasi norma menimbulkan hambatan dalam praktik AYDA dan menimbulkan akibat hukum di berbagai sektor. Di akhir, peneliti memberikan saran akademik mendorong penelitian AYDA yang multi kasus dengan teori hukum yang lebih variative. Untuk saran praktis penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya harmonisasi antar regulator sehingga pengaturan AYDA tidak saling bertentangan. Beban pajak sebaiknya disesuaikan dengan prinsip keadilan dan kemampuan membayar. BPR maupun masyarakat dapat menempuh judicial review ke Mahkamah Agung untuk menjamin kepastian hukum dan keseragaman tafsir regulasi

The livestock sector in Gowa Regency, South Sulawesi, has great potential but is often threatened by outbreaks of Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD), which cause significant economic losses. This study aims to evaluate the FMD control policies implemented by the Gowa Regency Government based on William Dunn's six policy evaluation criteria: effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, equity, responsiveness, and accuracy. The study used a qualitative approach with primary data collected through in-depth interviews with key informants from the Livestock and Animal Health Division of the Gowa Regency Livestock and Plantation Service and supporting data from various literature. The findings show that the FMD control policy is effective in achieving zero cases, but efficiency is hampered by limited medical personnel (only two veterinarians) and operational budget dependence entirely on the Central Government. Vaccine adequacy is a pull sistem (demand-driven) and compensation distribution is carried out fairly. Community responsiveness increased after severe losses, and policy accuracy was considered most optimal in the implementation of biosecurity and sanitation while promoting vaccination. As a recommendation, the Gowa Government needs to recruit contract workers in the field of animal health, allocate funds for the procurement of operational vehicles and equipment to support laboratory facilities, and issue a Regent Regulation that strictly regulates the implementation of biosecurity and livestock housing patterns in high-risk areas.

This study discusses the status of marriage books as legal and administrative documents, as well as the mechanism for their disposal as State-Owned Goods (BMN) at the Regional Office of the Ministry of Religious Affairs in Papua Province. The marriage book serves as valid evidence of marriage and plays an important role in population data management. As a document printed using the state budget (APBN), the marriage book is classified as BMN, and its management must comply with regulations. A qualitative approach with an empirical juridical method is used to examine the relationship between legal regulations and their implementation practices. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and literature studies with officials from the Islamic Guidance Division of the Ministry of Religious Affairs in Papua. The results indicate that the disposal of marriage books follows the Directorate General of Islamic Guidance Circular Letter No. 5 of 2024 and Ministry of Finance Regulation No. 83/PMK.06/2016. The disposal process is carried out in stages through administrative and physical mechanisms with principles of accountability and transparency. However, in Papua, the process of collecting unused marriage books has not yet reached the physical disposal stage. The disposal of marriage books is a strategic step in realizing good governance.

This research examines compliance with gold pawn guarantee execution procedures from a civil law perspective, using a case study of Medan District Court Decision Number 738/Pdt.G/2023/PN Mdn. The background to this research stems from the growing practice of gold pawning in society as a solution for quick cash needs, but it often raises legal issues related to the execution process of the pawned goods. The issues raised in this paper are the procedures for executing gold pawn guarantees according to applicable law and whether PT. Gadai Mas Sumut's actions in this case comply with legal provisions. This research method uses a normative juridical approach by examining Articles 1150-1160 of the Civil Code, the Consumer Protection Law, and PMK Number 122 of 2023. The analysis shows that, normatively, creditors have the right to execute pawned goods if the debtor defaults. However, execution must be carried out in accordance with legal procedures, the principle of good faith, and transparency, including through a public or voluntary auction. In the case of PT. In the case of the North Sumatra Gold Pawn, the execution was carried out without adequate notification and without evidence of an official auction, thus being deemed to have failed to meet the principle of legal compliance. Therefore, this article concludes that gold pawn execution practices must be based on the principles of legal certainty and debtor protection to prevent similar losses and disputes in the future.

This study aims to examine the implications of Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 37 of 2025 on the national fiscal balance and the resilience of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the context of the rapid development of e-commerce in Indonesia. This PMK introduces a collect at the source mechanism, which is the appointment of certain marketplaces as collectors of Income Tax (PPh) Article 22 on online merchant transactions. This policy is seen as one of the strategic steps to expand the digital tax base, improve fiscal efficiency, and support the principle of compliance by design. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach through documentation studies of official government documents, academic literature, and relevant publications. The results of the study show that the implementation of PMK 37/2025 has the potential to have a positive impact on state revenue through digital taxation optimization. In addition, this policy can strengthen the fiscal balance by minimizing the potential for tax avoidance in the growing digital economy sector. However, on the other hand, the policy also poses a number of challenges for MSMEs, especially related to administrative readiness, limited fiscal literacy, and adaptability to the tax digitalization system. For most MSMEs, additional tax liabilities can be a burden that affects cash flow, competitiveness, and business sustainability, especially for MSMEs that are still in the growth stage and have limited resources. The policy implications identified include the importance of improving fiscal education and literacy programs, the development of user-friendly digital reporting systems, and active collaboration between fiscal authorities, marketplaces, and MSME actors. Thus, the success of the implementation of PMK 37/2025 is not only determined by regulations, but also by the extent to which the policy is able to be implemented in an inclusive, adaptive, and sustainable manner in supporting national economic development.

An auction is an open sales mechanism that provides the public with the opportunity to acquire goods or assets through the highest bid. This process begins with an official announcement and is carried out transparently. In line with the development of information technology and efforts to modernize public services, the Indonesian government issued Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 122 of 2023 concerning Auction Implementation Guidelines. This regulation aims to update and simplify the auction process with a digital approach to make it more effective, efficient, and reach the wider community. This study aims to analyze the implementation of PMK 122/2023 at the Surakarta State Assets and Auction Service Office (KPKNL) and identify obstacles encountered in its implementation. The research method used is a juridical-empirical with a qualitative approach, where primary data was obtained through interviews with auction officials and related staff at the Surakarta KPKNL, while secondary data was collected from regulations, official documents, and legal literature. The research results show that the implementation of PMK 122/2023 has had a positive impact on improving the quality of auction services through digitalization, such as the implementation of an e-Auction system, the provision of e-Auction Corner facilities, and the use of other information technology to facilitate public access. Based on Soerjono Soekanto's theory of legal implementation, the success of policy implementation is influenced by factors such as legal substance, law enforcement officers, and the legal culture of the community. The Surakarta KPKNL (National Public Service Agency) is considered successful in increasing efficiency, accountability, and service satisfaction to the community. However, obstacles remain in its implementation, such as disputes over ownership of auction objects, resistance to occupants' evictions, and technical and administrative challenges in using online systems. This research recommends the need for inter-agency synergy, strengthening complementary regulations, and public education to support the smooth and sustainable implementation of digital-based auctions.

Taxation contributes to national development, and Indonesia has responded to global dynamics by introducing Indonesia Core Tax, a digital system designed to improve tax transparency and compliance. Although Indonesia has adopted various digital systems such as e-Faktur and e-Invoicing, it still faces implementation challenges, while Malaysia is more advanced with its integrated and phased API-based e-Invois system. This study examines taxation policy within the framework of Indonesia Core Tax, focusing on the legal aspects of e-Invoicing implementation as part of the digital transformation of tax administration. The analysis covers the hierarchy and functions of legislation, from laws and regulations to Minister of Finance regulations (PMK) and technical regulations of the Directorate General of Taxes (DJP). This study uses a normative legal research method with a legislative approach and a comparative approach to compare Indonesia's digital taxation system with Malaysia's, covering legal structure, legal substance, and legal culture. The results of the study show that although Indonesia has a fairly complete digital legal framework, the implementation of the e-Invoicing system still faces challenges in terms of regulatory consistency and technological readiness. In contrast, Malaysia has already implemented a mandatory and centralized API-based e-Invoice system through a clearance model approach. This study recommends harmonizing digitalization policies in taxation and strengthening the legal system as strategic steps toward more effective and adaptive tax administration.

Pharmaceutical services are carried out to achieve definite results in improving the quality of life of patients in the form of direct and resposibels services related to pharmaceutical preparations. In implementing pharmaceutical services, health centers already have a standard that is used as a guideline in its implementation. The consequences of implementing pharmaceutical services that do not comply with standards are medication errors and inappropriate use of drugs, there are expired drugs and overlapping budgets. The purpose of this study was to analyze the implementation of pharmaceutical service standards in health centers, BMHP and clinical pharmacy services based on PMK No. 74 of 2016 at the Paduraksa Health Center, Pemalang District. This study is a non-experimental study with a descriptive design that will provide an analytical description of the implementation of pharmaceutical service standards at the Paduraksa Health Center, Pemalang District based on the guidelines in the Minister of Health Regulation Number 74 of 2016. The population and sample in this study were all pharmaceutical personnel who were responsible for managing pharmaceutical service standards at the Paduraksa Health Center, by conducting interviews in the form of questions and answers by giving questions verbally to pharmacists or pharmaceutical personnel at the Paduraksa Health Center, Pemalang Regency. The data in the variable analysis looked at the percentage of compliance with standards based on the Minister of Health Regulation No. 74 of 2016.  

This study examines the challenges and opportunities of digital learning in Vocational High Schools (PMK) in Palembang City, which is a crucial issue in the context of vocational education. The main problems identified include limited infrastructure, lack of digital skills among teachers, and unequal access to devices for students. The purpose of this study is to explore how digital learning can be effectively integrated into the PMK curriculum. The method used is an ethnographic approach, with data collection through interviews, observations, and documentation analysis in four vocational high schools. The results of the study indicate that despite significant challenges, digital learning offers opportunities to improve students' technological skills and innovation in teaching methods. The conclusion of this study emphasizes the need for support from the government and educational institutions to overcome these challenges, so that digital learning can contribute optimally in preparing students for an increasingly digital world of work.  

State-owned goods (BMN) that have been acquired must undergo proper management, which includes a series of activities such as bookkeeping, inventorying, and reporting of BMN by legal provisions. This is based on the Indonesian Minister of Finance Regulation No. 181/PMK.06/2016, Article 1, concerning the management of BMN. Optimization, in this context, refers to the goal of improving or refining existing performance to make it better than before. Therefore, the optimization of asset disposal at the AAL (Naval Academy) work unit must be implemented to ensure proper data management in Simak BMN. Over time, the value of these assets will depreciate annually, leading to the eventual disposal of BMN when they no longer hold any value or function and only incur maintenance costs compared to acquiring new BMN. At the Naval Academy, there is still a deficiency in the disposal of BMN that should have been removed from the BMN list, primarily due to insufficient coordination between work units, which results in poor reporting in the SIMAK BMN system. The researcher focuses on the Naval Academy in conducting this study within the work units in the AAL environment. This study is a qualitative descriptive research, utilizing data collection methods such as observation, interviews, and documentation. The research findings indicate that: 1) The disposal process at the Naval Academy work unit has not been carried out effectively. 2) There are still BMNs that have not been removed from the BMN list but should have been. 3) There is a lack of personnel knowledge in each work unit regarding asset disposal, disrupting the reporting process in Simak BMN.

The government plans to increase the Value Added Tax (VAT) rate by 1%, from 11% to 12% in 2025. This policy has certainly triggered various reactions in society, from support to concern, especially regarding its impact on the prices of basic necessities and people's purchasing power. Value Added Tax (VAT) is a tax levied on the consumption of goods and services within the Customs Area, imposed at each stage of production and distribution. VAT collected by the central government applies to the purchase and sale of certain goods and services, such as motor vehicles, houses, and internet services, which will be subject to the 12% VAT rate. The Minister of Finance emphasized that the increase in VAT rates does not apply to people's basic needs.  Basic necessities, as well as critical services like healthcare and public education, will remain exempt from VAT or will be subject to lower rates. Secretary of the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs, Susiwijono Moegiarso, said that the technical details of implementing 12 percent VAT will be contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) which is currently being drafted by the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu). Will this policy become an obstacle to national economic growth, especially in the public purchasing power sector? What are the impacts on purchasing power, the business world and economic recovery? What are the government's steps to reduce the negative impacts of this policy

Disbursement of funds is a stage carried out by the KPPN to provide funds to the entitled party or partner based on the Direct Payment Order (SPM-LS) issued by the Budget User Officer or Budget User Authorization, in accordance with valid evidence of expenditure. This process includes two main categories, namely employee expenses such as (salary, allowances, honorariums, and overtime) and non-employee expenses which include procurement of goods and services, as well as payment of utility costs such as (electricity, telephone, and air). This study aims to analyze the direct disbursement procedure at the Malang State Treasury Service Office. The technique used in this study is descriptive qualitative, where the data collected is analyzed to draw conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the direct disbursement procedure at the Malang KPPN is in accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Finance Number 178 / PMK.05 / 2018 concerning Payment Procedures in the Framework of Implementing the State Revenue and Expenditure Budget.
