Abstract

This article aims to analyze Mandarin language proficiency and its influence on the performance of Indonesian students participating in international internship programs in Taiwan. The research problem focuses on students’ Mandarin language ability and its impact on work communication, task completion, and adaptation to an international work environment. This study employed a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 10 Indonesian students who were currently participating in or had completed internship programs in various companies in Taiwan, supported by observation and documentation. The data were analysed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing techniques. The findings show that listening and speaking skills are the most dominant Mandarin competencies used in workplace communication. Students with higher Mandarin proficiency tend to understand job instructions more quickly, adapt more easily to the work environment, and demonstrate greater confidence in communicating with supervisors and colleagues. In contrast, students with limited language ability experience difficulties at the initial stage of the internship, particularly in understanding fast speech and technical job terminology, which slows down their adaptation process. This study concludes that Mandarin language proficiency has a significant influence on Indonesian students’ performance in international internship programs in Taiwan, especially in improving communication effectiveness and workplace adaptation.

Abstract

This study aims to explore financial management practices in micro grocery store businesses in Samban Village, Semarang Regency. The problem focuses on how entrepreneurs manage financial records, cash flow, business capital, and financial decision-making. This research employs a qualitative exploratory approach involving 6 grocery store owners selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation, and analysed using an interactive analysis model. The results indicate that financial management practices remain simple and informal, characterised by the use of basic cash books, reliance on daily sales revenue for capital turnover, and the absence of clear separation between business and household finances. However, entrepreneurs demonstrate practical strategies to maintain cash flow and sustain their businesses. This study contributes by providing empirical insights into real financial management practices at the micro-business level and serves as a basis for developing financial literacy and assistance programs for micro-entrepreneurs.
