Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of E-Service Quality and Brand Image on Customer Loyalty among QRIS ShopeePay users, with E-Trust as a mediating variable, among Generation Z in Malang City. The hypotheses proposed include direct and indirect effects among the variables in the research model. This study employs a quantitative approach using an explanatory-causal research design. Data were collected via an online questionnaire distributed to 119 respondents Generation Z users of ShopeePay QRIS in Malang City using a non-probability sampling technique. Data analysis was conducted using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method via SmartPLS 4.0 software. The results of the study indicate that E-Service Quality and Brand Image have a positive and significant effect on Customer Loyalty, and E-Service Quality also has a positive and significant effect on E-Trust. Meanwhile, Brand Image does not have a significant effect on E-Trust. E-Trust was found to have a positive and significant effect on Customer Loyalty and significantly mediates the effect of E-Service Quality on Loyalty; however, it does not mediate the effect of Brand Image on Loyalty. These findings indicate that service quality and trust are key factors in shaping user loyalty, particularly among Generation Z, who prioritize user experience over brand perception. The implications of this study suggest that digital service providers, particularly ShopeePay, need to focus their strategies on improving service quality, system security, and user experience to strengthen customer trust and loyalty. Further research is recommended to include additional variables, expand the scope of the study, and employ a more diverse methodological approach to obtain more comprehensive results.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the comparison and conformity between Indonesian halal regulations and halal clauses in the Agreement on Reciprocal Trade (ART) articles 2.9 and 2.22 between the Republic of Indonesia and the United States. The analysis in this study uses a normative juridical method with a statutory approach, a comparative approach and a conceptual approach, this study dissects nine points in the halal clause of the ART. The results of the study show that there is a significant disparity in norms, namely three paragraphs declared appropriate, two partially contradictory paragraphs, and four absolute contradictory paragraphs because it is not in accordance with Indonesian halal regulations, especially related to the labeling of non-halal products and the elimination of halal supervisors. Judging from Hans Kelsen's sovereignty theory, Indonesia has the legal capacity to maintain its national standards to protect citizens, which is emphasized through the Decree of the Head of BPJPH No. 221 of 2025 regarding foreign halal certification. In sharia principles, the rejection of contradictory clauses is the implementation of the rules of Dar'ul Mafāṣid Muqaddam 'Alā Jalbil Maṣāliḥ in order to ensure halal certainty and the protection of Indonesian Muslims.

Abstract

This research aims to reveal the meaning of accounting practices contained in the Money Passolo tradition of the Makassar Tribe in South Sulawesi. The Passolo Money Tradition is the practice of giving money donations mutually during various traditional ceremonies, especially weddings and deaths. Using an ethnographic approach, this research explores how the Makassar community interprets and manages money flows in this tradition from a social and cultural accounting perspective. The research method used is ethnography with data collection techniques through participant observation, in-depth interviews and analysis of cultural documents. Informants were selected using purposive sampling, consisting of traditional leaders, community leaders, traditional practitioners, and family members who actively carry out the Uang Passolo tradition. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis based on cultural phenomenology. The research results show that Money Passolo contains rich and complex accounting dimensions. There is an informal recording system based on collective memory and communal records that function as a social ledger. This practice contains the values ​​of social accountability, reciprocity and solidarity. The accounting meaning of Passolo Money goes beyond mere financial calculations, but rather becomes an instrument for maintaining social relations, a marker of status, and an expression of the values ​​of Siri' na Pacce which is the life philosophy of the Makassar people. This research contributes to the development of accounting science that is more inclusive of cultural diversity, especially in the context of Indonesia's indigenous communities.

Abstract

This study analyzes the role of job satisfaction as a mediator in the effect of psychological capital and person–organization fit on work engagement among Generation Z employees in the footwear retail industry. Methods: This research employed a quantitative approach using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 3.0. Data were collected through structured questionnaires distributed to 103 Generation Z employees of an Indonesian footwear retail company, selected via purposive sampling. Results: Psychological capital and person–organization fit significantly predict job satisfaction, with person–organization fit as the strongest predictor. Job satisfaction significantly predicts work engagement. Psychological capital does not directly affect work engagement, while person–organization fit does. Job satisfaction fully mediates the psychological capital–engagement relationship and partially mediates the person–organization fit–engagement relationship. Implications: Person–organization fit emerges as the dominant predictor and job satisfaction as the critical psychological bridge through which internal and contextual resources convert into engagement. Footwear retail managers should prioritize cultural and value alignment in recruitment and retention, while developing psychological capital through coaching and training to indirectly enhance engagement via improved satisfaction.

Abstract

The Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG) Program is one of the Indonesian government's priority policies aimed at improving the nutritional quality of the population while strengthening human resource development through food-based interventions financed by state expenditure. This study aims to analyze the MBG Program from the perspective of fiscal policy, particularly regarding its implications for the State Budget (APBN), socio-economic impacts, and the government's fiscal sustainability. The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a literature review method through the analysis of various scientific journals, regulations, government reports, and publications from relevant national and international institutions. The findings indicate that the MBG Program represents a form of expansionary fiscal policy that functions not only as an instrument of social protection but also as a long-term investment in human capital development. The implementation of this program has been shown to contribute to improving children's nutritional quality, reducing the risk of stunting, increasing educational participation and quality, and strengthening local economies through the involvement of food-based micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and domestic supply chains. In addition, the MBG Program generates a multiplier effect on the economy through increased consumption, production, and employment absorption. However, the program also poses various fiscal risks, including increased pressure on the State Budget (APBN), potential budget inefficiency, and challenges related to the accurate targeting of beneficiaries. Therefore, the success of the MBG Program is highly dependent on effective governance, implementation efficiency, strengthened monitoring systems, and the government's ability to maintain a balance between social objectives and long-term fiscal sustainability.

Abstract

Online transportation services facilitate public mobility, but passengers often unilaterally cancel orders after the driver has accepted and is on their way to the pickup location, or even after arriving at the pickup point.
