<![CDATA[The Cembengan ceremony is a Slametan tradition commonly practised by sugar factories before the milling season. This ritual is a prayer for high productivity and excellent safety performance in the workplace during the milling process. Wayang is then played as the highlight of the event with Semar Mbangun Kahyangan as one of the usually performed stories. This study seeks to answer this question: What are the traditional safety concepts staged in the Slametan tradition in the workplace? This study used a content analysis approach to identify, analyse, and categorise the recording data of a wayang performance with the story of Semar Mbangun Kahyangan performed by Ki Dalang Hadi Soegito. This study has found that besides human destiny had been written by God, the meaning of Safety can be pursued through a multidimensional harmony, known as manunggaling kawula-Gusti (vertical harmony), silaturahmi (horisontal harmony), the harmony among five knights of Pandawa as a symbol of the physical harmony of five senses (sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch) and psychological-spiritual harmony. The second finding is that a safety attitude is fostered in line with human development, which is symbolised in Wayang's storyline, first, on the Pathet Enem (infancy to adolescent) safety attitude generated by right-wrong consideration. Second, a safety attitude is an ethical decision within Pathet Sanga (early to middle adulthood). Last, at Pathet Mayura (late adulthood), a safety attitude is a spiritual achievement.]]>

<![CDATA[Aside from academic activities, university life is enriched by extracurricular or community events that foster organisational skills and competency development. According to previous studies, university students who are motivated to grow personally are those who have aspirations for their future careers. Another factor that encourages active participation in organisational activities is a sense of belonging. Students’ active participation will contribute positively to organisational development. This study uses the lens of weak ties theory, which contrasts with the notion that people with strong relationships are more inclined to provide benefits in certain contexts. This study will use network analytic techniques to determine the extent of relationships between university students through UCINET software. The study aims to identify whether weak interpersonal interactions among students can promote their community engagement. The relationship analysis will relate to the level of their sense of belonging, obtained from questionnaire responses. The data were processed using descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression analysis through SPSS. The results demonstrate that weak relationships and a sense of belonging positively impact member engagement in organisation. This study aims to contribute by offering a hitherto limited analysis of student organisations using the weak ties theory and network analysis method.]]>

<![CDATA[There appears to be a generational gap between generations during the 4th vice-presidential candidate debate, which has the potential to be in the public spotlight during the 2024 election due to the instances of unethical communication of the candidate pairs. Three important points to be answered: First, explaining the dynamics of the debate in various perspectives between generations both visually and verbally (body language and diction used during rhetoric); Second, explaining the substance of the debate on communication ethics and verbal politeness in the context of the vice-presidential debate; Third, exploring the visual elements of both the visible and underlying aspects of the vice-presidential debate. A qualitative explanatory approach was employed in this research with data collection of YouTube video documentation categorised based on the concept of verbal politeness and the visual world according to the content analysis of the debate event video. The findings of the data display are associated with verbal politeness, ethics, and visual communication in the visual world (performance consisting of visible and invisible visual structures), which are based on the social culture and political reality of the vice-presidential candidates who have an important role in filling the gap between generations as a representation of the prospective leader of the nation. In conclusion, the communication process of debating requires ethics, self-control, represented in the polite attitudes and words of the three prospective leaders with the principles of mutual understanding, knowledge, self-control, humility, and wisdom. However, different generations do not need to underestimate or bring each other down. It is mandatory to have the principle of upholding equal human dignity so that the purpose of communication as information, persuasion, and education achieves the content of the message as a quality debate.]]>

<![CDATA[Media ownership by specific groups or individuals can influence the news narrative. Media may not always be neutral due to ownership factors causing bias, especially when conflicting political interests are involved. This study aims to determine the influence of ownership on news content, particularly Media Indonesia's coverage leading up to the end of President Joko Widodo's term. The study used quantitative content analysis to assess the tone of news coverage regarding the Five Presidential Work Priorities (2019-2024), as published in Media Indonesia's e-paper from 1 March 2023, to 29 February 2024. The results indicate a tendency for Media Indonesia to report negatively on Joko Widodo as his term ends. The critical coverage of President Joko Widodo's performance in Media Indonesia, a newspaper owned by Surya Paloh, is directly linked to the escalating political tensions leading up to the 2024 Election. These tensions involve both President Joko Widodo and Surya Paloh, highlighting the complex interplay of political interests and power dynamics as the election approaches.]]>

<![CDATA[This study examines the function of da'wah communication in disseminating knowledge, education, and counsel to mitigate divorce rates in Central Aceh Regency. This study incorporated A descriptive qualitative methodology, specifically observation, interviews, and document analysis of pertinent literature, legislation, regulations, and scholarly publications . This methodology provided comprehensive insights into the intricate dynamics of da'wah communication and its influence on marital stability. The study investigated three principal questions: What impact does da'wah communication as an information provider have on divorce rates? How does its educational role affect marital stability? How does its advisory role aid in decreasing divorce rates in the Central Aceh District? The results demonstrate that da'wah communication significantly lowers the divorce rate in Central Aceh District by functioning as a source of knowledge, education, and guidance; effectively resolving family disagreements is essential for fostering patience and encouraging spouses to uphold marital integrity under divine guidance. In contrast, families who do not engage in da'wah communication are more susceptible to issues, misunderstanding, and divorce. These findings underscore the need to incorporate da'wah communication into community initiatives to mitigate divorce rates and promote healthier family relations. Future studies may investigate the enduring impacts of da'wah communication on marital stability and its possible implementation in many cultural settings.]]>

<![CDATA[This study examines how post-structuralist visual identities and counter-hegemonic practices are expressed through digital street art on the Instagram account specifically onn @visual.jalanan account. Using a qualitative content analysis, this research focuses on posts made between January to May 2024, coding visual and textual elements to identify themes of hybridity, fragmentation, and resistance. This study selected 127 posts based on relevance to socio-political discourse and public engagement metrics such as likes and comments. The findings reveal that Instagram serves as a platform for cultural expression and social critique, enabling artists to bypass traditional gatekeepers. The artworks analysed in this study challenge dominant narratives related to nepotism, political propaganda, corruption, and cultural homogeneity. These artworks foster fluid identities and critical dialogue through visual satire and audience interaction, exemplifying post-structuralist principles. This research highlights Instagram’s role as a counter-hegemonic medium that contests mainstream narratives by amplifying marginalised voices. The study contributes to the scholarship on digital media art and visual identity by demonstrating how digital platforms enable innovative artistic expression and resistance to socio-political structures. Future research should explore the evolving role of digital platforms in sustaining counter-hegemonic movements and engaging with political advocacy in Indonesia.]]>

<![CDATA[This study investigates the application of Islamic personal branding tactics by politicians competing in the 2024 Central Aceh local elections. This research, rooted in the theoretical framework of personal branding and political communication, examines how politicians in this primarily Muslim region leverage diverse media channels to shape their public image and engage the local population. The study employs a qualitative technique, including text analysis, observations, and document inspection, to evaluate the personal branding tactics of a sample of ten politicians across various media platforms that include the internet, social media, and print media. The data collection period spans six months before the 2024 Central Aceh local election. The findings show that politicians make substantial use of Islamic rhetoric, symbolism, and the involvement of religious authority to boost their personal brands. They use a consistent media strategy, carefully incorporating these Islamic personal branding elements across several interconnected mediums. Nonetheless, the study emphasises the difficulties of guaranteeing consistency between the leaders' crafted image and their actual behaviour and policies. This study enhances the limited academic understanding of the influence of religion on personal branding and political communication, specifically regarding local elections in predominantly Muslim areas. The insights acquired can guide the formulation of more effective and ethical personal branding strategies for politicians aiming to engage with their people.]]>

Males interested in facial skincare products often. purchase through online shopping (repetition buying). Informants were obtained through a search using the keyword ‘metrosexual’ in the Instagram search field by and examined profiles that contain some information. Search results are sorted only among Indonesian metrosexuals. Data analysis began with observation of the informant's Instagram account profile from the Text/Photo/Video/Comment that can be accessed publicly. Followed by interviews to explore the understanding of the meaning behind the practice of online shopping through Instagram posts. The results of this study show that by developing self-care expertise, the cultural industry and body discipline of metrosexual men through online skincare buying activities contribute to disciplining their bodies. Disciplinary power is applicable to metrosexual males who receive discipline from facial skincare product businesses as well as from guys who post about these products. According to Adorno's research, social media is used as a disciplining tool by the cultural business for metrosexual guys, and this is perceived through the lens of the panopticon mechanism.]]>
