Abstract

Error analysis on students’ language performance has been massively discussed, yet few studies focused on teachers’ errors. Meanwhile, one of the main causes of students’ errors is the errors transferred from teachers. As the learners used to imitate their teachers sounds’ production, EFL teachers need to minimize errors when teaching at elementary school concerning the learners’ best period to acquire and learn a foreign language. The present study investigates EFL teachers’ pronunciation errors, specifically to find out the forms and causes of pronunciation errors in segmented vowels produced by the teachers. The research participants are 20 English teachers selected from various public and private elementary schools in Yogyakarta who were invited to pronounce 62 English words. The teachers were also required to fill out a questionnaire to find out external factors which are assumed can trigger the errors. The findings delineated that the teachers produced various forms of pronunciation errors in English vowels. The causes of errors lie in interlingual transfer, intralingual transfers, pronunciation differences between graphemes and sounds, hypercorrection, and words similarity. The external factors are also scrutinized, which include educational background and teachers’ lack of English practice. The study suggests that elementary EFL teachers in Indonesia should improve their pronunciation by frequently practicing and having intensive pronunciation training to teach better English to their learners.

Abstract

Business correspondence in the form of e-mail has an important role for freight forwarders to support their duties as intermediaries between exporters and importers. Mastering the style, format, and important parts of an e-mail is not an easy job, especially if it is written in English so that it becomes a challenge for freight forwarders. This study tries to investigate the obstacles and challenges faced by freight forwarding companies in Indonesia in conducting business correspondence in English, as well as analyze the role of business correspondence towards working performance of freight forwarders. This study involved five freight forwarding companies located in Jakarta. Data were collected through literature study and interviews with staff who handle correspondence. The results show that the style of e-mail communication made by freight forwarding companies tends to be informal with a lot of use of abbreviations and concise forms of e-mail. In addition, there are several obstacles in conducting correspondence, namely the lack of knowledge about the components that make up an e-mail, lack of English language skills, lack of knowledge about e-mail writing style, and misinterpretation. The obstacles impacted export-import activities in the form of delays in transaction processing, customer complaints and financial losses. Employees who deal with correspondence should be given intensive business correspondence training in order to understand in detail the structure, writing style, and patterns of business correspondence commonly used in the international business world. In addition, it is necessary to improve English language skills for the employees by providing English language training, especially related to writing and grammar.

Abstract

The textile industry is one of the strategic sectors in Indonesia's economy, with great potential to attract investment. However, the dependency on imported raw materials has become a major obstacle in enhancing the competitiveness of this industry. This study aims to analyze strategies for increasing investment in the textile sector through strengthening the upstream industry and managing local raw materials. The research method used is a literature review with a qualitative approach and descriptive analysis, utilizing data from Google Scholar from 2012 to 2025. Out of 30 initial articles found, only 17 were selected based on strict criteria. The findings show that strengthening the upstream industry through increased local raw material production, the development of alternative fiber innovations, and the implementation of investment incentive policies can enhance the self-sufficiency of the textile sector and reduce dependency on imports. Various case studies discussed show that investment in research and development (R&D), the development of textile industrial zones, and the implementation of a circular economy can improve production efficiency and global competitiveness. The implications of this study include the enhancement of national textile industry resilience, job creation, and strengthening sustainable policies in managing local raw materials. Therefore, support from the government, industry players, and academics is needed to implement appropriate strategies to strengthen the upstream industry and attract investment in the textile sector.

Abstract

Online reviews are a step to communicate various brands or products. Product reviews usually contain product features, advantages, and disadvantages, as well as other products for comparison. Electronic product reviews conducted online on YouTube channels are the object of this research. With certain criteria, five videos were obtained as review objects that will be studied in this research. The 458 dataset of audience comments on this review will be studied qualitatively using machine learning in the form of software of Nvivo, as well as internet ethnography and pragmatics. From the analysis results, it is known that each electronic product review video provides positive, negative or neutral perceptions and attitudes from the audience. Audience sentiment is formed from product features, images of reviewers, how it was reviewed, and product image. By the limitation of the research, it needs to be developed further with different methods and objects to provide more input to producers or reviewers.

Abstract

It is unquestionably impossible to separate the complexity of freight forwarding tasks in managing export-import documents from the issues that lead to customers' complaints. For this reason, this study is conducted to deeply investigate the forms of customer complaints at freight forwarding companies, the complaints handling strategies used, as well as explore the service recovery generated after complaints. It involved four freight forwarding companies in DKI Jakarta province. The staff who handled customer complaints from each company was asked to fill out a complaint sheet whenever the complaints were addressed for two weeks. Interviews with each staff were conducted to confirm data from the sheet and also to further explore the company’s complaint-handling strategy and service recovery. The data were analyzed descriptively by reading the complaints sheets and the interview transcription several times, coding the emergent themes, and categorizing them. The results showed that the customers’ complaints belong to four categories, namely complaints related to time, documents, costs, and means of transportation. The strategy for handling customer complaints varied based on the media used to address complaints. The strategy for handling complaints addressed orally via a phone call was apologizing, finding out the source of the problems, as well as giving explanations and solutions. However, complaints addressed in written form via email and WhatsApp messages were handled by directly addressing the problem and then informing the customer. This research indicated that companies need to make continuous service recovery by improving problematic side areas in order to increase customer retention.
