Abstract

International community service (PKM) is a tangible form of university involvement in strengthening academic-based cooperative institutions. This activity was carried out through collaboration with ANGKASA Kuala Lumpur, the parent organization of cooperatives in Malaysia, which has long experience in the development of modern cooperatives. Community Service (PKM). This study involves the fields of economics, law, health, and technology, to identify best practices in the institutional management of cooperatives in higher education The purpose of the activity is to increase the capacity of cooperatives of universities in Indonesia through multidisciplinary synergy, covering the fields of economics, law, health, and technology. The implementation method includes literature studies, field observations, Focus Group Discussions (FGD), and the preparation of cooperative internationalization action plans. The results show that university cooperatives in Indonesia still face challenges in the form of limited governance, lack of innovation in business units, and low utilization of digital technology. Through collaboration with ANGKASA, a model of strengthening cooperatives, developing preventive health business units, implementing governance according to modern legal principles, and integrating digital technology for member services was obtained. In conclusion, international PKM is a strategic step to encourage Indonesian university cooperatives to be globally competitive. The findings show that cooperative digitalization systems, cross-field institutional integration, and strengthening of internal regulations are the foundations for the success of cooperatives in Malaysia. It provides strategic recommendations in strengthening the institution of academic cooperatives in Indonesia

Abstract

International Community Service (PKM) has carried out activities in cross-border collaboration, especially between cooperatives in Malaysia and Indonesia. Mock study activities and field visits to leading cooperatives such as ANGKASA Malaysia which stands for ANGKASA is (Angkatan Koperasi Kebangsaan Malaysia Berhad), This cooperative is the Malaysian national peak cooperative that oversees all types of cooperatives, functioning as a representative body of the Malaysian cooperative movement. Known for its very large membership scale (12 million+), focusing on the socioeconomic well-being of members, facilitating payroll deduction loans. and the service team digitally transformed with an updated credit and service ecosystem to face the modern era, becoming an example of a large cooperative that is actively developing the potential of cooperatives in Malaysia. The adoption of appropriate technology plays a significant role in the efficiency and productivity of cooperative business units. Through a mechanical engineering perspective, this team examines the potential for technology transfer that can be adapted by higher education cooperatives in Indonesia, including agricultural product processing systems, mechanization of production businesses, and automation of cooperative data management. The results of the study show that the simple but effective application of engineering techniques, such as the use of semi-automatic packaging machines and digital inventory systems, is able to increase the efficiency of cooperative work by up to 30%. These findings provide important recommendations for cross-border technology transfer strategies within the framework of cooperative-based economic strengthening. This article contributes to the development of transnational cooperative partnership models and the relevance of engineering in community economic empowerment through cooperatives.
