Abstract

PT. XYZ is a company engaged in the manufacture of private-label cosmetics and skincare products in Indonesia. However, of these private labels or ‘Maklon’ products, only four out of the 151 available Maklon manufactured products have current Halal certification. This large uncertified percentage of Maklon products has given rise to a concern about the Halal bonafides of these products, which understandably leaves significant doubts regarding their suitability for personal use in consumer’s minds. As a consequence, in an attempt to ensure potential customers of the Halal quality of the cosmetics and other products produced at the Company’s facility, process researchers have deployed a Fuzzy Failure Modes and Effects Analysis. This approach has been chosen in order to determine the level of Halal risk priorities during the production of the Company’s products, and the outcomes have been subjected to a Fault-Tree Analysis to develop appropriate recommendations to transparently mitigate any potential risks. In essence, the purpose of this research was to (i) determine the critical control points influencing Halal certification, (ii) determine the priority level within the process needed to ensure strict control procedures, and (iii) to provide practical strategies to decrease the possibility of Halal risk profile.

Abstract

The Jokowi administration which held two terms of parliament between 2014-2019 and 2019-2024 introduced what many believed were controversial policies around the development of Sharia financial frameworks, resulting in significant political discussion within Indonesia. With conflicts and robust grassroots challenges between the government and Islamic groups particularly preceding the 2019 election. This article aims to better understand the Jokowi government's support for the development of Sharia finance, as well as the strategies and policies implemented by his government in dealing with tensions with Islamic groups. This research deploys a historical analysis of literature during Jokowi’s two terms of government. The research interestingly reveals that the Jokowi government had indeed introduced a series of initiatives and platformed various master plan iterations to encourage and support the growth of Sharia finance in Indonesia. However, policy implementation challenges still prevail and may place real pressure on future governments to either roll back these initiatives or discard them completely. Yet, even given this political antecedence Jokowi's government has managed to initiate and deploy a Sharia finance master plan. Only time will tell, whether Indonesia can overcome many political challenges to continue on its new strategic Islamic-inspired economic path.

Abstract

Studies on Indonesia's political conditions during the New Order until the 1990s reveal a significant shift in political dynamics, transitioning from a stance largely closed to Islamic interests to one that increasingly accommodated Islam through specific policies. This article aims to determine the influence of the ethnopolitical dynamics of Islam formed by the New Order on the development of Islamic banking law and its impact on the financial sector in Indonesia. Through a historical and contextual literature review, supplemented by interviews, it was observed that ethnopolitical dynamics significantly influenced the evolution of Indonesian banking law during and after that period. The influence of Islamic ethnopolitics, particularly in academic circles, has increasingly emerged as a dynamic force in facilitating the development of Islamic banking in Indonesia, underscoring the numerous challenges encountered in achieving market acceptance. Although its growth has not met market expectations, ethnopolitically, Islam continues to lobby for Islamic banking regulations. Furthermore, since 2019, the role of ethnopolitics has continued to realize policy and regulatory responses aimed at encouraging the growth of Islamic finance in Indonesia.

Abstract

The election of the new Indonesian Government heralds a new direction in higher education in Indonesia. Higher education is critical to Indonesia amidst significant global and national challenges, including globalisation, the uptake of advancing technologies, and climate change. This paper examines the potential role and leadership of Satryo Soemantri Brodjonegoro, the newly appointed Indonesian Minister for Higher Education, Science and Technology, can play in strengthening Indonesia’s resilience. As a prominent figure in academia and the education bureaucracy, Brodjonegoro’s work has significantly influenced the direction of Indonesia’s human capital development landscape. This review synthesises his academic publications, policy initiatives and strategic vision, which reveals a focus on driving innovation, enhancing research capacity, and promoting interdisciplinary collaboration within Indonesia's further education system. Central to Brodjonegoro’s thinking is that human capital is a catalyst for national development, and he is focused on preparing Indonesia for the demands of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. This paper also contextualises his work within global trends in Higher Education reform, exploring how his leadership aligns with international best practices and contributes to the broader discourse on education and technological advancement in developing economies. By critically analysing Brodjonegoro’s body of work and its practical implications, this review attempts to provide insights into his potential long-term impact on Indonesia's educational reform and it’s positioning as a knowledge-driven economy.

Abstract

This paper explores current perspectives regarding the Halal Tourism Value Chain (HTVC), a crucial and burgeoning segment in the international tourism sector, focused on fulfilling Muslim travellers' unique requirements. The chain is designed to adhere strictly to Islamic principles, as is required by followers of this faith. The paper offers a comprehensive examination of aspects of the HTVC, discussing the essential components of the chain and identifying all the participants who are involved in providing its essential services. Through a synthesis of the literature, the discussion will elucidate the spectrum of activities involved in the Halal tourism chain, which must be tailored to meet the Muslim demographic’s requirements. The findings highlight the significance of certification bodies, travel agencies, hospitality providers and regulatory frameworks. Furthermore, the study discusses the difficulties encountered within the sector, which relate to market segmentation, cross-cultural sensitivities and certification inconsistencies. The study concludes with strategic recommendations for enhancing the HTVC, emphasising the significance of cooperation between service participants, the importance of technological integration and the development of standard guidelines to ensure a seamless and guaranteed Halal travel experience. This investigation is purposefully designed to provide a meaningful contribution to the HTVC, offering practical insights for industry practitioners aiming to capitalise on this rapidly expanding market.
