This study analyzed the effectiveness and contribution of the Food and/or Beverage Tax, Hotel Services Tax, and Art and Entertainment Services Tax to Jakarta's Regional Own-Source Revenue during 2018–2024, and formulated policy recommendations based on fishbone (Ishikawa) analysis for the lowest-performing tax type. A descriptive quantitative approach supported by qualitative analysis was employed. Secondary data were obtained from Regional Government Financial Reports, while primary data were gathered through in-depth interviews with the Regional Revenue Agency, a tax consultant, an event organizer, and a venue operator. The Hotel Services Tax recorded the highest average effectiveness at 108.25%, followed by the Food and/or Beverage Tax at 100.72%, and the Art and Entertainment Services Tax at 98.88%. All three fell under the very low contribution category, with the Art and Entertainment Services Tax recording the lowest average at 1.16%. Fishbone analysis identified six root cause categories: disproportionate staffing and insufficient socialization (Man), reactive collection mechanisms (Method), limited tax technology implementation (Machine), misclassified business data and weak regulatory dissemination (Material), underreported revenues and high tax rates suppressing voluntary compliance (Measurement), and high entertainment sector elasticity with slow post-pandemic recovery (Environment). Policy recommendations were formulated across all six factors to optimize regional tax revenue.

Harga emas dunia merupakan faktor eksternal yang berpotensi memengaruhi kinerja keuangan perusahaan pertambangan emas, namun hubungan keduanya tidak selalu bersifat linear mengingat kompleksitas struktur bisnis dan biaya perusahaan. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis secara komparatif tren harga emas dunia dengan profitabilitas PT Aneka Tambang Tbk periode 2021–2025 menggunakan metode deskriptif kuantitatif dengan pendekatan komparatif tren. Data bersumber dari laporan keuangan konsolidasian audited PT Aneka Tambang Tbk tahun 2021–2025 serta data harga emas rata-rata tahunan yang diterbitkan oleh World Gold Council, dengan indikator profitabilitas Return on Assets (ROA) dan Net Profit Margin (NPM). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa harga emas mengalami kenaikan akseleratif dari USD 1.793,38 menjadi USD 3.518,43 per troy ounce dengan pertumbuhan kumulatif 96,2%, sementara profitabilitas perusahaan bergerak fluktuatif dengan puncak tertinggi pada 2025. Analisis komparatif terhadap empat fase pergerakan menunjukkan hubungan yang tidak konsisten dan non-linear, di mana dua fase bergerak searah, satu fase berlawanan, dan satu fase bersifat parsial, yang disebabkan oleh fluktuasi volume penjualan, ekspansi aset yang belum produktif, dan lonjakan beban pokok pembelian logam mulia dari pihak ketiga. Penelitian ini mengimplikasikan bahwa analisis profitabilitas perusahaan pertambangan perlu mempertimbangkan struktur biaya, strategi pengadaan, dan keputusan investasi secara simultan, tidak cukup bertumpu pada pergerakan harga komoditas semata.

The implementation of Income Tax Article 22 on import activities plays a strategic role in securing state revenue and controlling international trade flows. However, corporate taxpayers frequently encounter substantial barriers regarding regulatory compliance and technical administrative procedures. This study aims to analyze the compliance level of corporate taxpayers concerning the collection and reporting of Income Tax Article 22 on import activities, while identifying the primary obstacles faced during the process. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method with a case study approach conducted at the Tax Allowance Office. Primary data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with corporate taxpayers and tax authorities, supplemented by secondary data from tax compliance reports and related documentation. The findings indicate that while formal compliance regarding timely reporting has significantly improved due to digital administrative transformations like the e-Bupot system, substantial challenges remain in material compliance. Corporate taxpayers routinely face difficulties in classifying import tariff codes accurately and interpreting the frequent updates to tax incentives. This study implies that the tax authority needs to intensify specialized socialization programs and optimize the integration of data systems between the Directorate General of Taxes and the Directorate General of Customs and Excise. These strategic improvements are crucial to minimizing administrative discrepancies and enhancing overall tax compliance.

Employee performance is a critical element in organizational success, particularly in labor-intensive industries such as garment manufacturing. This study aims to analyze the effect of work stress (X1) and work environment (X2) on employee performance (Y) in garment industry companies in Semarang Regency. A quantitative descriptive approach with multiple linear regression analysis was employed. The population and sample comprised 96 employees using total sampling. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire (1–5) with 10 items per variable. All classical assumption tests (normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity) were satisfied. Reliability tests yielded Cronbach's Alpha of 0.866 (work stress), 0.941 (work environment), and 0.937 (employee performance), confirming instrument reliability. Results indicate: (1) work stress has no significant partial effect on employee performance (t = 1.581; sig. = 0.117); (2) work environment has a significant positive partial effect on employee performance (t = 9.618; sig. = 0.000); (3) simultaneously, both variables significantly affect employee performance (F = 56.630; sig. = 0.000) with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 54.9%. These findings confirm that optimizing the work environment both physical and non-physical is the primary strategic priority for enhancing employee performance in the garment industry.

Cattle farming plays a strategic role in rural economic development by generating employment, supplementary household income, and contributing to food and nutritional security. However, in Indonesia, most smallholder cattle enterprises remain traditional and small-scale, leading farmers to treat livestock farming primarily as a secondary livelihood. While previous studies have largely focused on technical adoption and production performance, limited attention has been given to farmers’ psychological interest as a foundation for sustaining livestock enterprises. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the level of community interest in cattle farming and examine the influence of farmers’ characteristics (age, education level, herd size, number of family dependents, farming experience, and primary income) on such interest. A quantitative survey was conducted involving 34 cattle farmers in Taji Village, Jabung District, Malang Regency, selected using total sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings reveal that community interest in cattle farming is generally high, as reflected in emotional (3.93), cognitive (3.81), and conative (3.74) dimensions measured on a four-point Likert scale. Regression results indicate that age has a significant positive effect (p = 0.022), whereas farming experience has a significant negative effect (p = 0.025) on interest levels. Other variables show no statistically significant influence. These findings highlight that psychological engagement in cattle farming is shaped more by demographic and experiential factors than by formal education or income level. The study contributes to the literature by positioning interest as a psychological determinant of livestock sustainability. Policy implications emphasize the urgency of risk-mitigation extension programs to address farmer burnout, incentivized intergenerational knowledge transfer, and cooperative-based institutional support to ensure smallholder livestock sustainability.

Poultry agribusiness is a key driver of food security and rural economic development in developing countries. However, the sector remains vulnerable to infectious diseases such as avian influenza and Newcastle disease, which can disrupt production systems and supply chain continuity. Although previous studies have examined poultry disease control, biosecurity, and supply chain disruption, evidence on how risk and crisis communication supports outbreak management and resilience in developing-country poultry agribusiness remains fragmented. This study applied a systematic literature review (SLR) approach under PRISMA guidelines to synthesize risk and crisis communication strategies in poultry disease management and their contribution to supply chain resilience. Only seven relevant studies published between 2020 and 2025 met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed using the PICO framework. Quality assessment using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT), combined with systematic data extraction in Microsoft Excel 2021, was conducted to improve methodological transparency and consistency. The novelty of this review lies in integrating communication strategies, enabling and constraining factors, digital tools, One Health perspectives, and public–private collaboration within a single analytical synthesis. The findings indicate that participatory, transparent, and coordinated communication can support disease prevention and crisis preparedness, particularly when strengthened by stakeholder trust, policy support, training, and accessible information channels. However, limited digital literacy, inadequate infrastructure, and cultural barriers may reduce communication effectiveness. Overall, this review highlights the need for inclusive communication systems and collaborative governance to strengthen poultry supply chain resilience in developing countries, while recognizing that the small evidence base limits broad generalization.

Heat stress is a major constraint in broiler production systems located in humid tropical climates, where high ambient temperature and relative humidity impair growth performance, feed efficiency, and animal welfare. This systematic review synthesizes peer-reviewed studies published between January 2015 and December 2025 evaluating environmental housing designs and cooling strategies for mitigating heat stress in broiler chickens. This systematic review followed the PRISMA 2020 guidelines and synthesized peer-reviewed studies retrieved from Scopus, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect, published between January 2015 and December 2025. From 500 records initially identified, 26 studies fulfilled the predefined eligibility criteria and were included in the qualitative synthesis. The findings demonstrate that evaporative cooling systems, tunnel ventilation, and automated climate control technologies consistently reduced indoor temperature (2–6°C) and improved body weight gain, feed conversion ratio (FCR), and mortality rates under hot-humid conditions. However, cooling efficiency was strongly influenced by ambient humidity, necessitating integrated and adaptive environmental control approaches. Smart sensor-based systems further enhanced microclimate stability and thermal uniformity within broiler houses. Beyond performance improvements, optimized environmental management reduced physiological stress indicators, including heterophil-to-lymphocyte ratios and corticosterone levels. Overall, integrated, humidity-adaptive, and energy-efficient cooling strategies are essential to sustain productivity, welfare, and climate resilience in tropical broiler production systems.
