This article discusses the role of the Blue Economy in increasing the income of coastal communities in North Sumatra through the utilization of fisheries resources. With great marine potential, including fishing that reaches more than 1 million tons per year, the North Sumatra region faces several challenges such as, low quality of human resources and limited access to technology. The Blue Economy offers a sustainable approach to managing marine resources, which not only promotes economic growth and community welfare, but also maintains the health of marine ecosystems. Through a qualitative method, we selected sources of articles found in databases in journals spread across various indexes and other sources. The research process began with literature mapping related to the role of the Blue Economy in increasing the income of coastal communities through optimizing fisheries resources, published in the last five years (2020-2024). Furthermore, group discussions were held to deepen the content analysis of the selected literature. The main objective of this research was to provide comprehensive information from the literature related to Blue Economy studies in economics and development. It was found that overall, the Blue Economy in North Sumatra has a significant positive impact on coastal communities. By managing fisheries resources and the environment more sustainably, opening up new opportunities through tourism, and improving the quality of fisheries products, the Blue Economy creates more equitable welfare, preserves nature, and supports the income of coastal communities in the long term.

The development of information and communication technology in Indonesia has driven the rapid growth of app-based food delivery services, such as ShopeeFood. The ease of using the application and the quality of service are key factors influencing user satisfaction in utilizing this service. This study aims to analyze the influence of application ease of use and service quality on ShopeeFood user satisfaction in Depok. A quantitative approach was used, with primary data collected through questionnaires distributed to 100 respondents. The data was processed using SPSS by conducting data quality tests, classical assumption tests, t-tests, and F-tests. Based on the research findings, it was concluded that both application ease of use and service quality have a significant influence on user satisfaction, both individually (partially) and jointly (simultaneously). The t-value for ease of use was 6.576 and for service quality was 4.929, both exceeding the t-table value of 1.984 with a significance level of 0.000. Simultaneously, the F-value of 37.967 also indicates a significant influence.

Political events often affect investors' decisions in taking wise steps. This paper analyses the impact of the political event "Emergency Alert" on the abnormal returns of IDX-listed infrastructure stocks using an event study methodology. Using a sample of 55 infrastructure stocks,the secondary data used are stock prices observed during the observation period. The difference in average returns before and after the event was assessed by analysing the estimated average abnormal return (AAR) and comparing the sample t-test statistics. The results of the analysis showed that a one-sample t-test (p < 0.05) indicated that abnormal returns were significant both before and after the event. However, a paired sample t-test showed that the difference between the average abnormal return rates of the two periods was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). This result suggests that although the "extraordinary alert" event has a significant impact on each period, its impact is not strong enough to cause a significant difference between periods. This study provides insights into stock market reactions to political uncertainty and serves as a reference for investors to address similar effects in the future.

This research aims to design a new warehouse layout at Alfamart with a dedicated storage method to increase material storage capacity. The instrument cluster assembly process at Alfamart is very dependent on the smooth supply of materials. The increase in production capacity from 2,500 units/day to 3,000 units/day in 2021 causes a larger need for storage space. The main problem identified is the limitation of the material placement area in the old warehouse. In this study, an analysis was carried out on the types of goods placement policies and optimal facility layout. The research method used is a combination of literature study and data collection from the research site. The results of the analysis show that the new layout design can increase the storage capacity up to 30%, from 240 pallets to 312 pallets. The new layout not only improves the placement of goods, but also increases operational efficiency through wider lanes, clear zoning systems, and better lighting. Thus, this research makes a significant contribution to warehouse management at Alfamart, ensuring that all materials can be stored and accessed in accordance with the established standards.
