Abstract

This study investigates the dynamics of auditor-client communication to establish a balance between technical and non-technical language, communication skills, and satisfaction levels. The research adopts a quantitative analysis in combination to explore how these factors impact communication effectiveness. The study's respondents are 60 auditors, including expert auditors from the BPKP Indonesian Financial and Development Supervisory Agency and P2UPD auditors from the Ministry of Home Affairs, who were chosen for their relevant expertise. The study used a structured questionnaire to examine the frequency and context of technical and non-technical language usage, communication skills, and satisfaction levels. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, a statistical method to assess how independent variables influence communication outcomes. Technical language, such as "materiality thresholds" and "variance analysis," helps clarify complex concepts but can obstruct client comprehension when used excessively. Non-technical language, such as general terms like "acceptable margin of error," improves clients' comprehension and engagement in communication, particularly for clients who are not technically savvy. Auditors' communication skills, especially listening, speaking, and interpersonal interaction, were the strongest predictors of effective communication. Communication satisfaction also played a crucial role in building trust and smoothing interactions. This study concluded that balancing technical and non-technical language, honing communication skills, and prioritizing satisfaction are essential for enhancing audit outcomes. However, this research focuses on public-sector auditors in Indonesia, which may limit generalizability to other sectors. Recommendations include training auditors in adaptive communication strategies and implementing feedback mechanisms to sharpen their approach. These results contribute to the literature by combining linguistic and audit practice perspectives to provide actionable insights into better communication strategies, improving audit processes, and informing policy improvements.

Abstract

This article examines the influence of entertainment and interaction through the perception of candidate image on the intention to choose students in West Java in the 2024 Regional Elections, with Ronal Surapradja as the research subject. This research focuses on evaluating social media's effectiveness as an effective campaign strategy in shaping voting intentions, especially in building a candidate's image. This study uses the theory of uses and gratifications with a quantitative approach. Data was collected through a questionnaire, distributed to West Java students, and then analyzed using the PLS-SEM method. The study's results showed that entertainment did not significantly affect the intention to choose Ronal Surapradja, while interaction had a significant negative influence. In addition, the perception of Ronal Surapradja's image was proven to mediate the impact of entertainment on the intention to choose. Still, it did not mediate the effect of interaction on the intention to choose. These findings show the importance of the right communication strategy in building a candidate's image on social media. Thus, it is essential to know the sound management of candidate image and the implementation of effective digital communication strategies to increase connectivity with voters, especially Generation Z, who are active on social media.

Abstract

Serang City, as the capital of Banten Province, recorded the lowest regional revenue (PAD) among other cities/regencies in the province from 2018 to 2020. The low understanding of taxpayers regarding tax obligations and limited investment in Serang City have contributed to its low PAD. This condition urged the Serang City Government to innovate and implement the Pipeline Program (Mobile Tax Payment Services) initiated by the Regional Revenue Agency to enhance regional revenue. However, challenges persist in its implementation, including limited infrastructure and human resource capacity. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Pipeline Program policy in increasing regional revenue in Serang City. Using a qualitative research design with a descriptive and inductive approach, data collection methods included interviews, observations, and documentation. The study applies Van Metter and Van Horn's theory, focusing on six indicators: policy standards and objectives, resources, inter-organizational communication and implementing activities, characteristics of implementing agencies, socio-economic and political conditions, and implementers' dispositions. The Pipeline Program is a payment channel designed to optimize public service delivery and provide tax education, especially for taxpayers in remote areas. The program contributed to PAD growth by 0.3% in 2021, 0.5% in 2022, and 2.4% in 2023. Enhancing operational vehicles, human resource quality and quantity, and continuous optimism are necessary to ensure Serang City's PAD steadily increases, removing its status as one of the lowest PAD contributors in Banten Province.

Abstract

This article investigates the factors influencing young people's decisions to join military organizations in Indonesia, focusing on their motives, experiences, and the perceived Meaning of military service. To approach this problem, a theoretical reference is used to frame and explain the interplay of individual motives, lived experiences, and the perceived Meaning of military service in shaping enlistment decisions. The data is collected through structured surveys administered to young individuals who enlisted in military organizations during 2024 and analyzed quantitatively using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with second-order constructs to assess the relationships and hierarchies among the latent variables. This study concludes that motives, experiences, and perceived meaning significantly influence the decision-making process. Motive is the dominant factor, and ideals and economic dimensions best reflect the motive factor. This study provides valuable insights into the dynamics underlying military enlistment in Indonesia, offering implications for policy development, recruitment strategies, and understanding youth behavior in military contexts.

Abstract

The Medan City KPU received a grant of Rp 69,349,289,475 from the Medan City Government to implement the 2020 Medan Mayor and Deputy Mayor Elections. The use of funds must be effective, efficient, economical, and accountable. However, the KPU faces several problems in budgeting, administration, and accountability of funds, such as regulatory changes, limited human resources, and delays in reports from the Ad Hoc Body. This study aims to analyze budget governance and grant accountability. The method used is qualitative descriptive, with data obtained through interviews, documentation studies, and content analysis. The study results show that the Medan City KPU has implemented the budget according to applicable regulations and is transparent in budget planning and procurement of goods and services. However, it is less transparent in providing financial information to the public. The Medan City KPU is also accountable, efficient, and effective in managing the Regional Election budget.

Abstract

This study explored the effectiveness of government policies and strategies in addressing climate change and hunger in Nigeria's Niger Delta region. The region, grappling with severe environmental degradation, rising temperatures, and widespread food insecurity, faces multifaceted challenges that demand targeted policy responses. The study highlights key efforts to tackle climate change, improve food production, and enhance community well-being by evaluating current government actions. The study reveals that although specific policies have made progress, such as increased funding for climate adaptation and promotion of sustainable farming, these efforts are hindered by challenges like poor implementation, inadequate infrastructure, and limited local involvement. The study emphasized the need for greater collaboration between government, local communities, and international partners to ensure the success of climate and food security initiatives. Recommendations include improving infrastructure, raising awareness and education on sustainable agricultural practices, and enhancing the capacity of local governments to carry out policies effectively. This study contributes to the existing literature by providing a thorough evaluation of Nigeria's climate change and hunger mitigation strategies in the Niger Delta, offering valuable insights to guide future policymaking and regional approaches. The findings underscore the necessity of addressing local needs and promoting community participation in creating sustainable solutions to climate change and food insecurity.

Abstract

The Russian-Ukrainian war has profoundly impacted international Trade, reshaping global economic dynamics. This study explores the political effects of the conflict, focusing on economic sanctions, trade realignments, and disrupted supply chains. As significant energy and essential commodities exporters, Russia and Ukraine's roles in global Trade have been pivotal. Hostilities have caused inflation, food insecurity, and a reevaluation of global economic dependencies. Anchored in the Geoeconomic Power Theory, the study uses historical and content analysis to examine documented data. Key findings reveal disruptions in supply chains, rising commodity prices, changes in trade relationships, and significant impacts on energy and agricultural markets. Sanctions have reconfigured trade partnerships, fostered covert economies, and influenced long-term trade policies, including shifts toward regionalization, economic blocs, and alternative financial systems. The study underscores the strategic use of economic tools in geopolitics and recommends real-time trade monitoring systems to track and respond to global trade fluctuations caused by the war, ensuring businesses adapt to emerging trends effectively.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the framing patterns used by Arab media, namely Aljazeera.net and Alarabiya.net, in reporting the death of Hezbollah militia leader Ibrahim Muhammad Qubaisi due to Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon. Using a qualitative content analysis approach based on the framing theory of William A. Gamson, this study analyzes several news articles from both media that discuss the event and Hezbollah's response. The analysis results show that both media use framing devices such as metaphors, catchphrases, exemplars, depictions, visual images, and reasoning devices in the form of root causes, calls to principles, and consequences. Aljazeera.net frames Qubaisi as a martyr and symbol of resistance, while Alarabiya.net highlights his strategic role in Hezbollah's military system. This difference reflects the editorial orientation of each media and affects the construction of the public meaning of the Israel-Hezbollah conflict. This research enriches media framing studies in the Arab world and provides a reference for conflict discourse analysis in the Middle East region.
