Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors influencing students' decisions to choose Politeknik Negeri Medan (POLMED) as their higher education institution. Higher education in Indonesia has experienced rapid development; however, competition among educational institutions has become increasingly intense. With a large number of both public and private higher education institutions, the challenge faced by each institution is how to compete and attract prospective students. POLMED, as one of the state universities in North Sumatra, must be able to implement effective marketing strategies to attract students. The research method used is a qualitative approach, with in-depth interviews conducted with students at POLMED. The findings indicate that the marketing strategies applied by POLMED, such as collaborations with schools, promotion through social media, and the organization of campus events, have proven to be effective in enhancing POLMED's visibility among prospective students. However, there is room for improvement, particularly in digital marketing. Students suggest that POLMED should improve its digital content to be more engaging and relevant to the interests of the younger generation, such as videos showcasing campus activities, alumni testimonials, and more detailed information about the advantages of vocational education.

Abstract

This research investigates the potential of TikTok as a digital marketing platform for fostering entrepreneurship on Sumatra Island, Indonesia. The study addresses the gap in the current literature regarding the suboptimal use of digital marketing tools in the region, particularly TikTok, which remains under-utilized despite its potential to enhance entrepreneurial growth. Using a qualitative research approach, data was collected through in-depth interviews with six informants, three TikTok sellers and three affiliates from Aceh, North Sumatra, and West Sumatra. Findings indicate that TikTok serves as an effective and cost-efficient platform for entrepreneurs, offering a dual function as both an entertainment and shopping medium. However, the study reveals challenges, such as limited digital financial literacy and an underdeveloped application of marketing strategies on the island. The research contributes to understanding the dynamics of digital marketing adoption in Sumatra, highlighting the necessity of enhancing digital financial literacy and maximizing the use of the platform, for example, TikTok to boost entrepreneurial independence. The implications of this study suggest the importance of integrating digital tools in regional economic policies to foster inclusive growth. The study also acknowledges limitations such as the small sample size and the focused geographical scope which recommend future research with broader, more diverse samples and a mixed-methods approach to explore long-term business sustainability and the comparative effectiveness of various digital platforms.

Abstract

This study discusses legal protection for Indonesian migrant workers in the dynamics of the diaspora and public policy challenges. Indonesian Migrant Workers play an important role as contributors to the country’s foreign exchange, but still face various problems such as human rights violations, violence, exploitation, and weak legal protection in the destination country. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a juridical-sociological method through in-depth interviews and participatory observation of Indonesian migrant workers and secondary data analysis from official government documents and international reports. The results of the study show a significant gap between the protection policies that have been set by the government and the reality of their implementation in the field. The main problems include the rampant non-procedural placement by illegal agents, low digital literacy of Indonesian migrant workers regarding the government’s online reporting system, and limited coordination between related institutions. This study highlights the importance of cross-sector collaboration, both state and private, and the use of information technology to strengthen complaint mechanisms and the supervision of migrant worker placement in a transparent and accountable manner.
