Abstract

The policy of using passenger name records (PNR) at immigration checkpoints is one-way immigration authorities try to enforce the law and protect state security. This is done by exchanging passenger data in the Passenger Analyzing Unit (PAU) system owned by the Directorate General of Customs and Excise with immigration data in the Immigration Management Information System (SIMKIM) and dealing with suspected lawbreakers at the border. This paper uses a qualitative method and descriptive analysis to look at the policy of using PNR to control immigration as much as possible. The analysis results show that the proposed approach still needs help. For example, there are no rules about how the officers and workers of the Directorate General of Immigration and the Directorate General of Customs and Excise should do their jobs. Second, although the existing infrastructure does not meet established standards, it is still transportable. Thirdly, the data exchange collaboration agreement between the Directorate General of Immigration and the Directorate of Customs has not been formalized. Fourth, no authorized official or officer can manage and analyze PNR data. Therefore, the Director General of Immigration recommended overcoming various obstacles, including integrating the PNR system from Customs and Excises and Airline and Border Control Management (BCM).

Abstract

Fiji’s public sector has experienced over 30 years of reforms following the adoption of structural reforms in the late 1980s.  Despite three coup d’états in 1987, 2000 and 2006, the Fiji Government has continued to roll out the implementation of its public service reform program focusing on a reduction in the size of its public service with the adoption of the principles and practices of New Public Management (NPM).  This paper posits the question whether a reduction in the size of Fiji’s public service has been achieved using the recommended indicators by the International Monetary Fund (IMF). It then reviews the challenges faced by the Fiji public service in implementing key elements of NPM. Finally, it addresses the question whether Fiji’s public policy lens should remain focused on reducing the size on the public service and should policy efforts be concentrated on enhancing good governance practices within Fiji’s public service.

Abstract

This study examines the Government of Fiji's new public management (NPM) employment contracting system and its legal challenges. The article raises the question of whether Section 97 of Fiji's 2013 Constitution of the courts and all judicial officers being independent of the legislative and executive branches of government and the law is applied without fear, favor, or bias, is guaranteed under a contracting mode of employment for judicial officials. This paper investigates whether three-year performance contracts ensure the independence of Fiji's judiciary. After extensive analysis, the authors propose that permanent tenure provides greater protections for Fiji's magistrate court judges, high court judges, and judicial officials by allowing them to exercise their independent roles as stipulated in Section 97 of the 2013 Fiji Constitution.

Abstract

This report aims to empirically investigate the relationship between economic growth based on the theory of Shultz and Kuznets and human capital through health and education in Muslim nations. The results will then be compared between countries. Then, analyze it considering Al-Quran interpretations as a contributor to human capital development. The empirical findings are based on examining a panel data set for Muslim countries from 1990 to 2020. This study interprets Qur'anic verses to explain how Islam characterizes human capital using content analysis methodology. In developing Muslim nations, life expectancy, infant mortality, and population growth are significant determinants of Gross domestic product (GDP) per capita. In contrast, education variables, such as literacy rate and gross enrollment, have a negligible impact on per capita GDP. In contrast to the case with output in developed nations, education level significantly impacts per capita GDP, whereas health variables have no effect.

Abstract

Predominantly public policy is a set of guidelines initiated by the government of a country to work in favour of mass people or the public. We showcase and represent public policy materials against the backdrop of being involved in the process of accountability, transparency, and efficient and effective administration and program delivery. In addition, the selected government department used private-sector management control technologies to deal with the public-sector reform initiatives. These elements are considered part of the modern approach to public administration also. The study may be useful to policymakers formulating new public sector policies. Moreover, the findings reported in this study would be useful to public sector managers in their daily decision-making process.

Abstract

Even though some developing nations have successfully implemented production and national income development, poverty in these countries remains a very complex issue. This study investigates the concurrent and partial effects of the Gross Regional Domestic Product, Unemployment, and the human development index on poverty in Aceh Province. The data used in this study is secondary data based on time series available on the official website of the Aceh Provincial Statistics Center for the 2017–2022 period. The processing of this research data uses the E-Views 10.0 program. The research analysis employed in this study is a panel or regression analysis, which indicates that the variables GRDP, unemployment, and HDI are the independent variables, and poverty is the dependent variable. GRDP partially has a positive and significant effect on poverty. Unemployment has a partial and insignificant effect on poverty. HDI partially harms poverty. Simultaneously, it concludes that the Gross Regional Domestic Product, Unemployment, and the Human Development Index significantly affected poverty.

Abstract

The Creative Training and Religious Guidance Program for Indonesian Muslim Children in Kuala Lumpur is important because access to Islamic religious education and Quranic studies in Kuala Lumpur is considered expensive and inaccessible to lower-income Indonesian children. This program aims to provide equal opportunities for children from lower-income backgrounds to obtain quality religious education and develop creative skills. In a diverse environment like Kuala Lumpur, it is important for Indonesian Muslim children to strengthen their religious understanding to maintain their religious identity and practice Islamic values in their daily lives. However, the high costs associated with religious education and Quranic studies can be a barrier for children from families with limited incomes. The Creative Training and Religious Guidance Program for Indonesian Muslim Children in Kuala Lumpur is designed to address this constraint. By collaborating with educational institutions and religious organizations like Fatayat Nahdatul Ulama (NU), the program offers training in creative skills, such as arts and music, while providing religious guidance to the children. This provides an opportunity for children from lower-income backgrounds to access affordable Islamic education and Quranic studies. The program has dual benefits. First, children can access Islamic religious knowledge and learn to recite the Quran without a heavy financial burden, thereby reducing the disparity in access to religious education. Second, by aligning activities with the spirit of Ramadan, the program creates an environment that ignites the enthusiasm of children to participate and enhances their love for Islam. This program offers a new hope for children from lower-middle-class backgrounds in Indonesia to develop a solid understanding of their religion and strengthen their Muslim identity.

Abstract

Community empowerment can be defined as a social action in which residents of a community organize themselves to make collective plans and actions to solve social problems or meet social needs according to their abilities and resources. In reality, often this process does not emerge automatically, but grows and develops based on the interaction of the local community with outsiders or social workers either from a charitable or professional perspective. This activity aims to overcome the problems that are being faced by mushroom farmers to increase production yields, overcome problems related to business development which will be overcome by structuring the business management system that has been running.
