    Authors: Andrias Darmayadi ; Ervina Nabilah Purnamasari

    DOI: 10.15549/jeecar.v9i1.870

    Abstract

    This study aims to analyze the process of resolving the Natuna sea dispute between Indonesia and China to obtain their respective sovereignty. The Natuna Sea is one of the outermost waters in Indonesia, which is unilaterally claimed by China at the South China Sea (indicated with dash lines on Figure 1). This claim overlaps with Indonesia’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) in the Natuna Sea. As a result of this claim, many Chinese fishermen are free to go in and out of catching fish in Natuna Waters with illegal fishing status. The method used in this research was qualitative and descriptive research. The data collection technique was based on a literature study and was strengthened by interviewees. The study results show that this dispute resolution process is carried out through two approaches, namely the international law approach and the diplomatic approach. Because through these two approach strategies, this dispute resolution can be accomplished very comprehensively. The legal approach was taken by submitting a Diplomatic Protest Note to China. Also, the diplomatic approach was taken by Indonesia and other ASEAN countries within the ASEAN Way framework. © 2022, Institute of Eastern Europe and Central Asia. All rights reserved.

    Authors: Siti Kurnia Rahayu, Adeh Ratna Komala, Sharifah Norzehan B. T. Syed Yusuf

    DOI: 10.14453/aabfj.v18i5.09

    Abstract

    The dynamics of Islamic banking growth offer unique insights into the opportunities and challenges in accounting and tax harmonization. Conducted in 2023, this qualitative study explores barriers and solutions to accounting and tax integration within the Islamic banking sector through case studies of leading Islamic banks in Indonesia and Malaysia. Through in-depth analysis based on expert interviews and regulatory document review, this research identifies divergences in accounting principles, regulatory infrastructure, and human resource readiness as primary constraints. A proposed theoretical framework, integrating Maqasid Sharia principles with good governance, aims to create an accountable, sustainable, and integrated accounting and taxation system. Its implementation is expected to enhance transparency and accountability of Islamic banks, thereby strengthening the broader Islamic economy in both nations, with long-term improvements in operational efficiency and fiscal compliance. © 2024, University of Wollongong.

  • The Mediating Roles of Customer Trust and Satisfaction in E-Service Quality and the Repurchase Intention Relationship

    Authors: Muhammad Iffan, M Yani Syafei, Nguyen Duy Cuong

    DOI: 10.14453/aabfj.v18i5.07

    Abstract

    The rapid growth of information technology and the internet has changed how the company runs its business. In an increasingly competitive business environment, gaining and increasing market share is a priority for companies in the E-Commerce industry. The study aims to determine the impact of E-Service Quality on Repurchase Intention, mediated by Customer Trust and Customer Satisfaction on E-Commerce users. The data is processed using a quantitative approach using the SEM-PLS method. The validity and reliability tests are first performed to determine the validity of the data, followed by the analysis of Structural Equation Modelling to determine the direct and indirect effect between research variables. Research results show that E-Service Quality significantly affects Customer Trust and Customer Satisfaction. In addition, Customer Trust and Customer Satisfaction significantly affect Repurchase Intention. Furthermore, E-Service Quality does not directly have a significant effect on Repurchase Intention. However, E-Service Quality indirectly affects Repurchase Intention through Customer Trust and Customer Satisfaction. Based on the research results, E-Commerce users make online repurchases not only based on the quality of the service received but also on the consumer’s trust and satisfaction generated by the product or brand offered, which can significantly increase consumer repurchasing. © 2024, University of Wollongong.

  • Vocational Skills Training as a Requirement for Survival in Disaster Affected Communities: an Educational, Managerial and Technological Perspective

    Vocational Skills Training as a Requirement for Survival in Disaster Affected Communities: an Educational, Managerial and Technological Perspective

    Author: Eddy Soeryanto Seogoto ; Umi Narimawati ; Wahyu

    Abstract

    For many years, throughout the world, people have had, and continue to have, pressing, endless and urgent needs to build conducive and human friendly communities. However, in a disaster situation, many lose lives, property, infrastructure, close friends and family members, something which causes multiple pain and suffering. Such a condition calls for a tested strategy and or approach, which can heal all the post-disaster wounds and pains brought about by deadly calamities (such as tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes). In this case, among the most appropriate strategies is vocational skills training. Based on this, in the present study the authors seek to examine the effectiveness of this strategy from an educational, managerial and technological perspective with the aim of establishing how the strategy should work to build sustainable communities in a post-disaster situation. It is concluded that communities need to possess appropriate knowledge, attitude, and skills necessarily for their survival after minor and severe disasters. This can take place in the form of vocational training and skills development. © 2017 WIETE.

    to Confront Health Care Fraud in Hospitals

    Musa Darwin Pane ; Diah Pudjiastuti

    DOI: 10.22304/pjih.v8n3.a2

    Abstract:

    Fraud is a systematic crime that has a very broad impact. It can happen in any fields, including in hospitals. Fraud is a form of corruption. Hospital is a health service institution. Corruption in hospitals has the potential to lead to ineffective health services for people. The phenomenon of health care fraud in hospital is an indication the law does not function in accordance with the objective. This study aims to determine the functionalization of law and sentence for fraudulent acts as a form of corruption in hospitals based on justice values. This study is a descriptive study with normative juridical method that employed statutory and conceptual approaches. The data were collected through a literature study. It was subsequently analyzed qualitatively. This study is of the position to view that prosecution of criminal acts of corruption requires functionalization of law. The functionalization of law must be interpreted as positioning everything in its proper place. It is the synergy of the legal system, which consists of formulative, judicial, and executive policies. The criminal procedures can apply the punishment system for perpetrators of fraudulent acts in hospitals that includes extended alternative punishment. © 2021, Padjadjaran University.

    DOI: 10.30880/jtet.2021.13.03.010

    Abstract

    The purpose of this study is to determine students’ learning performance who underwent simulation software class on the Programming and Arduino Microcontroller Subject. A quasi-experimental study, with pretest and posttest design was implemented. The subject involved 74 vocational high school students (37 in the control group and 37 in the experimental group) have undergone eight weeks of treatment, using conventional and Proteus simulation software. Students’ performance was measured using achievement test; involved cognitive, psychomotor, and affective aspect, which was based on the Bloom’s Taxonomy. The result indicated that students in the experimental group have outperformed their counterpart in the control group in cognitive aspect (81.4 vs 76.24), affective aspect (81.83 vs 76.34) and psychomotor aspect (79.04 vs 70.37). Further analysis using independent t-test, result indicated that the experimental group’s performance has significantly difference from the control group’s performance at all aspects [t(72) = 3.068, p = .004]. In conclusion, simulation software using Proteus has a significant contribution to increase students’ performance in learning. The implication is that, teaching difficult subject involves programming of microcontroller should use simulation software, so that students become more enthusiast, have many choices in experimenting and capable of nurturing creativity. Future study suggested to focus on the effect of simulation software on nurturing specific creativity skills. © Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia Publisher’s Office.

  • Presence of Pretrial in the Perspective of the Pancasila State of Law

    Presence of Pretrial in the Perspective of the Pancasila State of Law

    Sahat Maruli Tua Situmeang

    DOI: 10.14710/lr.v17i2.41746

    Abstract:

    Pretrial is a process that precedes a trial in court or a preliminary examination before entering a trial. However, in its application, pretrial institutions both before and after the Constitutional Court Decision Number 21/PUU-XII/2014 are not in accordance with the Criminal Procedure Code and also have weaknesses or shortcomings. This paper aims to find out the presence of pretrial institutions in the perspective of the Pancasila state of law. In other hand, pretrial institution as an institution that oversees the protection of the human rights of suspects/defendants is regulated in Chapter X Articles 77 to Article 83 of the Criminal Procedure Code. The determination of the suspect must be carried out carefully by taking into account the principle of presumption of innocence as a general principle in criminal procedural law that must be enforced by law enforcers. In law enforcement, of course, there must be supervision both vertically and horizontally so as to minimize the occurrence of irregularities. Therefore, it is important to establish an Ad Hoc institution as a substitute for a Pretrial institution in which the judges consisting of career judges, legal practitioners and academics can act whether there is an application or not which is filed by the suspect/defendant or his family or proxies so that the decision is objective. Thus, it is important to reformulate the Criminal Procedure Code regarding the determination of suspects. © The Authors.
