Abstract

The proliferation of social media has changed the global information paradigm, enabling immediate and direct access to breaking news. This research examines the role of social media as a primary source of information, focusing on the context of the conflict in Palestine. Through a qualitative desk research approach, it explores how social media contributes to disseminating current events in Palestine. The analysis involved a review of literature related to social media development, conflict information dynamics, and its impact on public opinion. The results show that social media has become an essential tool in accelerating and expanding the reach of information about the situation in Palestine. Individual actions, such as sharing news or personal views, can trigger significant public responses and shape narratives that influence global perceptions. Moreover, the active engagement of social media users in relaying actual information plays a key role in shaping opinions and attitudes toward the conflict. This research provides insight into the complex dynamics of social media as a key source of information, illustrating how information is disseminated and understood in the context of the Palestinian conflict. The implications of this research can contribute to further understanding social media's role in shaping public opinion and influencing the global narrative on sensitive issues such as the Palestinian conflict.

Abstract

On October 30, 2023, Indonesia's beauty industry was shocked by the boycott of two well-known local brands, ESQA and Rose All Day. The trigger for this boycott was the actions of the owners of the two brands, Angelina Cindy and Tiffany Danielle, who gave support to Israel by "liking" Gal Gadot's controversial post. The public response to this action led to disappointment and boycott from most Indonesian netizens. This research uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach. Analysis was conducted on the chronology of events, public responses on social media, and apologies from brand owners. The data was analyzed to understand the impact of individual actions in the context of social media and how public responses affect brand reputation. A simple action such as a "like" on social media by a brand owner can trigger a large public response and significantly affect brand reputation. Public responses to political controversies can result in product boycotts and create pressure on companies to take a stand. The brand owners, in this case Angelina Cindy and Tiffany Danielle, responded by apologizing and clarifying their stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This incident highlights the complexity of public response, the impact of individuals in the age of social media, and the need for dialog and education in dealing with sensitive issues.

Abstract

Work on happiness and human development share a common lineage, both have been driven partly by an interest in understanding and measuring human progress and well-being. The paradox of the relationship between human development and happiness encourages us to examine the factors that influence happiness. The study of happiness is considered to be important in public administration due to public administration's concern with the relationship between government and society. For policies and programs to be truly effective to this end, they must gain a better understanding of happiness. This research uses a quantitative approach as the research design with the correlational study. This study uses two units of analysis, the first one being provinces in Indonesia and the second one being people. The Provincial data used are taken from the Central Bureau of Statistics (Badan Pusat Statistik) (BPS), about 34 Provinces. The second level unit is individuals or people and uses data from Survey Pengukuran Tingkat Kebahagian (SPTK) 2017 conducted by the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), which consists of 72,317 household heads. The result shows that human development is associated with citizen happiness in Indonesia. Overall, HDI is associated with happiness. These findings suggest that improving human development is fundamental for the happiness of Indonesian citizens, especially improving expected years of schooling, mean years of schooling, and income per capita.

Abstract

In the "BTN-01" well, one of the wells is owned by KSO PT PERTAMINA EP PT Sarana GSS Trembul. The "BTN-01" well is installed with a hydraulic pumping unit pump that experiences decreasing production, and based on tests on January 30, 2023, the output of the "BTN-01" well produces only 216 bfpd with 98% of water cut. The pump operates on 8 SPM of pump speed and 74-inch stroke length, with 43% of volumetric efficiency. As per theory, a proper design of hydraulic pumping unit pump will produce a volumetric efficiency value above 70%. To overcome this problem, it is necessary to perform research, started with an evaluation on the existing design and continue to quantitative research by recalculating the optimum production rate from IPR calculation, recalculating pump speed, recalculating pump stroke length, and recalculating volumetric efficiency to achieve higher value on both production rate and volumetric efficiency of the pump. In the "BTN-01" well, IPR was calculated by the Wiggins method, and it is known that the oil production rate is 5.53 bopd, 421.96 bwpd of water rate, and the fluid production rate is 427.5 bfpd. Based on the results of HPU redesign and recalculation of the optimum production rate, the new value of pump speed is 7 SPM (existing 8 SPM), the pump stroke length is 70 inches (existing 74 inches) with a volumetric efficiency of 78.45% (existing 43%) that can be called optimal.
