The phenomenon of Generation Z’s political electability in the 2024 Legislative Election reflects a shift in patterns of political representation at the local level. The success of Generation Z candidates in securing legislative seats in Jambi City has become a noteworthy phenomenon, particularly amid the dominance of politicians from older generations. This study aims to analyze the political personal branding strategies employed by Generation Z candidates in building their electability in the 2024 Legislative Election in Jambi City. The research adopts a qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews, documentation, and literature review. The analysis is based on Peter Montoya’s Personal Branding theory, which consists of specialization, Leadership, Personality, Distinctiveness, visibility, unity, persistence, and goodwill. The findings reveal that the electability of Generation Z candidates is influenced not only by their young age or social media presence but also by their ability to establish social closeness with the community, maintain consistency in political behavior, engage in intensive interpersonal communication, and actively participate in social and community activities. Personal branding strategies that are developed consistently and sustainably have proven effective in fostering public trust and strengthening political legitimacy at the local level. The study concludes that political personal branding is one of the key factors contributing to the electability of Generation Z candidates in the 2024 Legislative Election in Jambi City.

The Tabernacle, established by Moses at God's command in the wilderness, was His holy dwelling place, signified by the pillar of cloud and fire. As the center of worship in the Old Testament, the Tabernacle featured a divinely designed structure: the outer court with the Altar of Burnt Offering and the Laver; the Holy Place containing the Table of Showbread, the Golden Lampstand, and the Altar of Incense; and the Most Holy Place housing the Ark of the Covenant with the mercy seat. Though historically exclusive to Israel, the spiritual meaning of the Tabernacle remains relevant for believers today. In the era of grace, every believer is a priest with direct access to God through Christ. This study explores the application of the "Tabernacle Tour" as a guide for personal prayer, where each piece of furniture symbolizes a spiritual stage from confession of sin to intimate communion with God. Through biblical reflection and practical experience, the author finds that this symbolic journey helps believers experience quality time with the Lord in prayer, transforming the Tabernacle from a historical reality into a living spiritual model for faith growth and contemporary worship.

The Padang State University Community Service Program (KKN) in Jorong Koto Tingga, Nagari Sirukam, Payung Sekaki District, Solok Regency, West Sumatra, implemented a public space revitalization program through the construction of a creative garden based on rice field views. This program was created in response to the lack of representative public spaces and the decline in social interaction between residents due to modernization. Using a participatory approach, the community and youth of the jorong were involved in every stage, from planning, land clearing, to the construction of seating facilities overlooking the expanse of rice fields. As a result, the empty land was successfully transformed into a functional, aesthetic, and locally valuable public space. The high level of community participation demonstrated the success of the approach implemented and fostered a sense of ownership of the park being built. This program is expected to become a model for revitalizing public spaces based on local potential for other rural areas. Although the construction was not fully completed when the KKN program ended, the community and youth of Jorong Koto Tingga are committed to continuing it independently. This program is expected to become a model for revitalizing public spaces based on local potential for other rural areas with similar characteristics.

Sindroma Koroner Akut (SKA) merupakan kondisi kardiovaskular yang memerlukan penanganan intensif dan sering kali membutuhkan lama rawat inap yang bervariasi, yang berpotensi memengaruhi kualitas hidup pasien. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara lama hari rawat dengan kualitas hidup pasien Sindroma Koroner Akut di ruang Intensive Cardio Vascular Care Unit (ICVCU). Penelitian ini menggunakan desain deskriptif kuantitatif dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan non-probability sampling dengan metode accidental sampling. Populasi penelitian berjumlah 142 pasien SKA dalam tiga bulan terakhir, dan berdasarkan perhitungan rumus Slovin diperoleh sampel sebanyak 114 responden.

Semakin lama pasien dirawat di ruang ICVCU, maka kualitas hidup pasien cenderung menurun. Oleh karena itu, pengelolaan lama rawat inap yang optimal diperlukan untuk meningkatkan kualitas hidup pasien SKA.

Women’s representation in legislative institutions is an important indicator for assessing the quality of democracy and gender equality in a political system. Indonesia has implemented an affirmative policy requiring a minimum quota of 30% female candidates in legislative elections. However, its implementation at the local level still faces various challenges. This study aims to analyze the phenomenon of tokenism and the forms of women’s political representation in the nomination and election process of members of the Cilegon City Regional House of Representatives (DPRD) for the 2024–2029 period. This research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach using literature review and secondary data analysis. The analysis is based on Hanna Pitkin’s theory of political representation, which categorizes representation into four types: formal, symbolic, descriptive, and substantive. The findings show that only 4 out of 40 seats in the Cilegon City DPRD are occupied by women, representing approximately 10% of the total membership, and this figure has remained unchanged compared to the previous period. This condition indicates a gap between the fulfillment of the female candidate quota at the nomination stage and the low level of electoral success. Furthermore, the political recruitment process within parties also reflects indications of tokenism, where female candidates are often included merely to fulfill administrative requirements without sufficient political support. As a result, women’s representation in the Cilegon DPRD tends to remain at the formal and descriptive levels, while substantive representation remains a challenge in local political practice.

Stroke is a major cause of long-term disability and frequently results in balance impairment that limits functional mobility and increases the risk of falls. Impaired trunk control and postural instability are common consequences of stroke, highlighting the need for effective rehabilitation strategies. This study aimed to analyze the effect of Core Stability Exercise on balance improvement in stroke patients undergoing rehabilitation at the Medical Rehabilitation Polyclinic of RS Adhyaksa Jakarta. A case study design with a pretest–posttest approach was applied to three patients with ischemic stroke who presented with balance disorders. The intervention consisted of Core Stability Exercise, including bridging, bird-dog exercise, and seated balance exercise, conducted three times per week for eight sessions. Balance performance was measured using the Berg Balance Scale before and after the intervention. The findings demonstrated a consistent increase in Berg Balance Scale scores in all patients, indicating improvements in static and dynamic balance as well as a reduction in fall risk. Patients with better initial motor control showed faster and greater improvement, although positive changes were also observed in patients with more severe impairments. These results suggest that Core Stability Exercise contributes to enhanced trunk stability, postural control, and functional balance in stroke patients. The study implies that integrating Core Stability Exercise into routine physiotherapy programs may support more comprehensive and individualized stroke rehabilitation, particularly in addressing balance-related functional limitations.

The Tapal Kuda Air Salobar Food Court is one of the culinary areas that plays an important role in supporting tourism and social activities in Ambon City. This area offers a variety of local culinary specialties from Maluku which are an attraction for the community and tourists. However, the increase in the number of visitors and the activities of traders have not been fully balanced by the conditions of adequate spatial planning, facilities, and area management systems. This study aims to analyze the existing condition of the Tapal Kuda Air Salobar Food Court from the aspects of spatial planning, waste management, supporting facilities, as well as the potential and challenges of its development as a culinary tourism destination. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection methods in the form of field observations and in-depth interviews with key informants, namely area managers, traders, and visitors. The data obtained are analyzed thematically to identify the main problems and potential development of the area. The results of the study indicate that the spatial planning of the Tapal Kuda Air Salobar Food Court has not been able to accommodate the increase in visitor and trader activities due to the lack of clear zoning, limited circulation routes, and spatial planning that develops without integrated planning. Furthermore, waste management in this area is not yet systematic and sustainable, as evidenced by limited trash bins, a lack of waste sorting, and poorly scheduled waste collection. Limited supporting facilities, such as seating and sanitation facilities, also impact the comfort and quality of the visitor experience, especially during peak visitor periods. Nevertheless, the Tapal Kuda Air Salobar Food Court has significant potential as a culinary tourism destination based on local cuisine and a social space, which can be developed through spatial planning, facility improvements, and more integrated area management. This study concludes that the revitalization of the Tapal Kuda Air Salobar Food Court requires a comprehensive approach, emphasizing spatial planning improvements, strengthening waste management, and enhancing the quality of facilities and area management to support the sustainability of culinary tourism and the quality of public spaces in Ambon City.

The implementation method employs field observation, identification of potential and problems, environmental analysis, participatory discussions with the  community, and formulation of a spatial design concept. The results of the program are presented in the form of a conceptual design for the Grape-Based Thematic Village along Palgunadi Selatan Street, which includes gateway elements, pedestrian pathways, communal seating areas, pergola systems for grape cultivation, neighborhood bridges, vertical planting systems, and security posts. This design concept enhances environmental quality, strengthens the visual identity of the neighborhood, and creates opportunities for community-based economic activities and educational tourism. Furthermore, the program contributes to increased community awareness and participation in environmentally responsive and locally based neighborhood development, supporting the realization of a more organized, attractive, productive, and sustainable urban settlement.

This study aims to analyze the incumbent's advantage in the 2024 Manggarai Regency Legislative Election with a case study of Paulus Peos' victory in Electoral District I. The theory used is David R Mayhew's approach. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach through interviews, observation, and documentation. The results of the study show that Paulus Peos' success in retaining his legislative seat for four consecutive terms was supported by three main factors, namely name recognition (advertising), credit claiming, and position taking. Through advertising, Paulus Peos built a positive image and connection with the community; through credit claiming, Paulus Peos emphasized his contributions to various development programs; and through position taking, Paulus Peos demonstrated his commitment to the aspirations of the people. These three factors fostered strong voter loyalty and trust, proving that the incumbent's advantage stemmed not only from his political position but also from his ability to build social relationships and his consistent performance in serving the community.

Public transportation plays an important role in supporting community mobility and accelerating regional economic growth. To improve public transportation services in East Java, the East Java Provincial Transportation Agency introduced the Trans Jatim Bus system. However, its implementation still faces several challenges, including long bus arrival times, the use of mobile applications that are difficult for elderly users, and inconsistencies in the availability of supporting facilities such as seating and trash bins at bus stops. This study aims to analyze the quality of Trans Jatim Bus services based on the service quality dimensions proposed by Wirtz and Lovelock. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed using stages of data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that reliability has not met service standards due to prolonged waiting times. Responsiveness and assurance were found to meet service standards, as passengers expressed satisfaction with service responses and complaint handling. Empathy was considered adequate, although accessibility issues for elderly passengers remain. Tangible aspects were also sufficiently met, but inconsistencies were found in the provision of seating and trash bins at several bus stops. Based on these findings, the study recommends increasing the number of buses on corridor 2, evaluating bus schedules, conducting public awareness campaigns, and ensuring the consistent provision of seating and trash bins at all bus stops to improve overall service quality.

This research is entitled “Women’s Representation in Political (Analysis of the Low Number of Elected Female Legislative Members in the Sabu Raijua Regency DPRD in the 2024 Election).” The low representation of women in politics is a significant issue in various regions, including Sabu Raijua Regency. This study aims to analyse the low representation of women in politics and the factors that hinder women from becoming legislative members in the Sabu Raijua Regency DPRD in the 2024 elections using Gender Theory, which focuses on three derivatives of the theory, namely gender issues, gender ideas, and gender representation. The results of the study show that the obstacles faced by women are not only related to individual capabilities, but are also the result of social constructs influenced by gender issues, gender ideas, and gender representation. Women are often faced with domestic burdens, financial constraints, and a lack of training from political parties, which limits their political capacity. Patriarchal customs also reinforce the notion that men are more suitable for leadership, while women are seen as quota fillers. As a result, representation is more symbolic than substantial, as evidenced by the fact that only two women have won seats in the Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD), one of whom was through the PAW mechanism. Barriers include traditional norms, gender stereotypes, and social legitimacy; lack of support and strategy from political parties; and financial constraints and campaign capital.

Malang Regency is known as a strategic location with considerable potential as a tourism destination in Indonesia. According to data released by the Central Bureau of Statistics, Malang Regency has recorded 267 tourist destinations spread across 33 districts. This study uses data from one water tourism destination, referred to as Tourism Site X, which focuses on the management and development of recreational areas, including swimming pools, bathing facilities, water attractions, artificial lakes, as well as the management of recreational parks and family facilities such as playgrounds, seating areas, and recreational and educational facilities. Tourism Site X is located in Pakis District, Malang Regency. The reuse of treated wastewater as a non-potable water source for irrigating green open spaces represents a crucial strategic approach to conserving water resources, particularly in water tourism areas such as Tourism Site X, which require substantial water supplies. In practice, the wastewater generated in Tourism Site X mainly originates from domestic sources, including activities such as cleaning swimming pool areas and animal enclosures, toilet usage, and food court operations. This study aims to assess whether the quality of treated wastewater from the wastewater treatment process at Tourism Site X complies with the required standards for green open space irrigation, in accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Environment/Environmental Control Agency of the Republic of Indonesia Number 11 of 2025 concerning Wastewater Quality Standards and Wastewater Treatment Technologies for Domestic Wastewater, as well as to identify parameters that need to be reduced or eliminated.

Patient satisfaction is a feeling that arises from the performance of health services that have been obtained after the patient compares it with what was expected. Rather than the reality that occurs there are still complaints about outpatient registration services based on electronic medical records, Frequent obstacles are if the network is disrupted, then access to the EMR can be hampered or cannot be accessed at all and the limited capacity of the waiting room is also an obstacle, especially with the large number of patients during peak hours so that many patients wait outside the waiting room. This study aims to determine the level of patient satisfaction in outpatient registration based on EMR. This study uses a quantitative method with a population of 13,750 and a sample of 99 outpatients. Based on the results of the study in 2025, it can be concluded that patient satisfaction with RME-based outpatient registration in the aspect of tangibles can be categorized as "Less Satisfied" especially regarding facilities such as AC/Television, from the aspect of reliability it can be categorized as "Satisfied" even though there are a few respondents who answered "Less Satisfied", from the aspect of responsiveness it can be categorized as "Satisfied" even though there are some patients who feel "Less Satisfied", from the aspect of assurance in RME-based outpatient registration it can be categorized as "Satisfied" but there are a small number of patients who answered "Less Satisfied" and from the aspect of empathy it can be categorized as "Satisfied" even though there are some patients who answered "Less Satisfied". So the researcher's suggestion is that the Hospital improves the quality of the waiting room, especially AC, television, increases the number of chairs and provides adequate seating for all patients, so that patients are more comfortable and avoid overcrowding

This study aims to analyze the winning strategy of the candidate pair Ratu Wulla and Angga Kaka in the 2024 Regional Head Election (Pilkada) of Sumba Barat Daya Regency. The main focus of this research is how the Ratu-Angga pair gained public support, particularly after Ratu Wulla's controversial decision to resign from her seat in the House of Representatives (DPR RI) to run for Regent.

These three strategies were applied synergistically and proved effective in transforming negative public perception of Ratu Wulla resignation into significant political support.The victory of the Ratu-Angga pair, with 49.03% of the valid votes, indicates the success of an inclusive, adaptive, and locally responsive political communication strategy. This research contributes significantly to the understanding of voter behavior dynamics and campaign strategies in the context of local politics in Indonesia.

The level of healthcare quality is determined by the extent to which societal or individual requirements for healthcare are met in alignment with high professional benchmarks, while ensuring prudent resource utilization and impact within government and societal constraints. In addition, it must be delivered in a safe and satisfactory manner to patients, following ethical standards and best practices. Quality indicators of health services in hospitals have challenges in improving the overall quality of health services. In the Cardiac Poly Outpatient Unit at Kendari City Hospital, it is necessary to know the strategies used in improving service quality. The purpose of this study is to ascertain the Strategy for Improving the Quality of Health Services in the Cardiac Poly Outpatient Unit at Kendari City Hospital in 2024. The research methodology used is qualitative and descriptive, using the Phenomenal model to investigate various phenomena in Kendari City Hospital with data collection techniques, namely field observations at the research location and also in-depth interviews with informants who have been determined. The results showed that the quality strategy of health services provided by the Kendari City Hospital is quite good, especially in the Cardiac Poly Outpatient Unit. However, considering the importance of health services, it must always be improved so that the quality of health services received by the community is always maintained. There are still many things that must be considered, for example, the problem of waiting rooms that must be added to the seats for visitors and the speed of service that must still be improved.

The democratic system implemented in Indonesia is realized through general elections, which are held every five years as a manifestation of people’s sovereignty. Elections provide an arena for political contestation where political parties compete to gain votes and legislative seats, including the National Awakening Party (Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa/PKB). In the 2019 general election, PKB in Tanjungpinang City obtained 5,188 votes or 4.67%, securing two parliamentary seats. By contrast, in the 2024 general election, its vote share increased significantly to 9,765 votes or 7.94%, allowing the party to gain three seats. This increase indicates that the political strategies applied by PKB in Tanjungpinang had a substantial impact and are worth analyzing, as they succeeded in attracting voter support and expanding parliamentary representation. The purpose of this study is to identify and analyze the strategies used by the National Awakening Party in the 2024–2029 Tanjungpinang City Legislative Election. This research also explores strategic approaches not only at the party level but also by individual legislative candidates, who applied their own methods to secure voter trust. The study adopts Peter Schroder’s (2010) theoretical framework on political strategy, which includes situation analysis, strategy control, strategy formulation, strategy implementation, and strategy evaluation. This framework is employed to examine how PKB designed, executed, and assessed its strategic efforts during the electoral process. The findings demonstrate that PKB’s success was not merely due to party-level strategies but also the result of synergy between collective organizational moves and personalized campaign tactics by candidates. These strategies involved effective grassroots engagement, optimized use of political networks, and adaptation to the socio-political context of Tanjungpinang. The implications of this research suggest that comprehensive and adaptive political strategies are essential for increasing electoral gains, and that combining party-driven initiatives with candidate-level innovations can enhance both vote acquisition and seat attainment in legislative elections.

This study examines how lighting perception influences reading focus and satisfaction in book cafés in Bandung, Indonesia. A descriptive quantitative approach was employed, involving a preference survey and an experimental study conducted at a selected book café. Thirteen female participants were assigned to three distinct seating areas characterized by different lighting conditions. Participants completed reading tasks and evaluated their environmental comfort, focus level, and reading satisfaction. The findings indicate that lighting comfort significantly correlates with focus (ρ = .000, p < .01) and reading satisfaction (ρ = .016, p < .05), although focus and satisfaction were not significantly related. ANOVA results revealed a significant difference in perceived lighting comfort across seating points, with the most favorable conditions found at Point A. These results underscore the importance of lighting design in enhancing the reading experience in multifunctional public spaces such as book cafés. Future research should consider additional environmental variables, including noise and thermal comfort.
