This study aims to identify and empirically examine the effect of the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER) and Return on Assets (ROA) on firm value in Islamic Commercial Banks. The research adopts a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from the financial statements of Islamic Commercial Banks consistently published during the 2020–2024 period on the official website of the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The population consists of 12 Islamic Commercial Banks listed on the exchange, from which 8 banks were selected as samples using a purposive sampling technique. The independent variables in this study are the Debt to Equity Ratio and Return on Assets, while firm value serves as the dependent variable. Data were collected through observation and documentation, then analyzed using SPSS version 26. The analytical techniques applied include validity and reliability tests, classical assumption testing, the coefficient of determination, and multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that both the Debt to Equity Ratio and Return on Assets have a partial effect on firm value. Furthermore, the simultaneous test results show that DER and ROA jointly have a significant effect on the firm value of Islamic Commercial Banks. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to the development of Islamic financial studies and provide empirical insights into the factors influencing firm value in Islamic banking, as well as serve as a reference for future research by incorporating additional relevant variables.

This study aims to analyze the Golkar Party's strategy in winning the 2019 Legislative Election (Case Study: Golkar Party of South Sulawesi Province). The method used is descriptive qualitative with a phenomenological approach. The data analysis technique is through data reduction, data presentation and verification or drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that planning plays an important role in the scope because it determines and at the same time provides direction to the goals to be achieved. Meanwhile, the implementation of the strategy, namely the organization must set annual targets, create policies, motivate legislative candidates, and allocate resources can be implemented. So that in the evaluation can review the external and internal factors that emerged in the first stage, measure performance and take corrective actions or improvements when discrepancies arise later. The supporting factors of the Golkar party strategy are the influential and widely known regional leaders in South Sulawesi so that they can increase the attractiveness of voters to the party and prepare the legislative candidates who are prepared to be the best cadres who are encouraged, but the inhibiting factor is that the coordination between the legislative candidates is not good so that it causes internal divisions so that the target votes are almost the same as the votes being fought over so that it does not result in an increase in votes, apart from that because of the strength or popularity of competing parties and other candidates who may be more attractive to voters.

Food security in remote and outermost islands is an increasingly urgent strategic issue in the context of sustainable development in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the challenges, strategies, and policy implications of food security in these regions using a literature review method. A total of 21 scholarly articles and policy documents (2021–2025) were critically reviewed based on the FAO’s five-pillar framework: availability, access, utilization, stability, and sustainability/agency. Findings reveal that limited local production, high food distribution costs, dietary shifts from traditional foods to low-nutrition imports, climate vulnerability, and low community participation are the main drivers of food insecurity. The latest FSVA 2025 data indicates national improvement, with food-vulnerable areas reduced from 92 districts (2024) to 81 (2025). The Food Security Index (IKP 2024) also highlights persistent vulnerability pockets, particularly in small and outermost islands. In response, the National Food Agency (NFA) has strengthened the Diverse, Nutritious, Balanced, and Safe Food Program (B2SA) in 809 locations and accelerated the implementation of the Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) program in 3T areas such as Morotai and Nias Selatan. These initiatives prioritize the use of local food resources (fish, maize, horticultural products) and the establishment of MBG kitchens that comply with nutrition and food safety standards. The most relevant strategies for the Indonesian context include local food diversification (sago, maize, cassava, fish, moringa), agroforestry, blue food governance, strengthening local institutions, and integrating national programs such as the sea toll and MBG

Fort Rotterdam is one of the most important historical heritage sites of Makassar and has great opportunities in terms of development as an educational tourism destination. Even though the site has a good level of architectural integrity and cultural relevancy, the education functionality of the site is underused. The current research aims at evaluating current tourism conditions, the experience of visitors in the learning process, and the perspective of institutions in order to come up with proper and sustainability designs of educational tourism activities. The study uses a qualitative descriptive research approach. The information was collected by direct observation, semi-structured interviews with the visitors and site managers, and documentary materials. The observation was based on physical conditions, interpretive facilities and patterns of visitor activity. The perceptions, learning difficulties, expectations, and managerial constraints were investigated during interviews. The data obtained were categorised thematically and analysed through interpretation, the aim of which was to outline salient patterns and relationships. The findings indicate that Fort Rotterdam is physically in good condition and well-decorated, but the education systems and interpretation media are not many and are too scattered. Tourists use the site mainly in the recreational context, and their understanding of the historical accounts is still incomprehensible. However, interactive, culturally based and participatory learning activities are highly viewed by the majority of visitors. The site managers too demonstrate a dedication to education enhancement but they face limitations of human resource and financial aid. Considering these results, the paper suggests working on interactive educational programmes, including puzzle activities based on Lontara and digital interpretation tools and community-related learning programs. The strategies are expected to support visitor interaction, increased historical awareness and sustainable heritage tourism development at Fort Rotterdam.

This study aims to analyze internal and macroeconomic factors that affect the profitability of conventional banks in Indonesia, using Return on Assets (ROA) and Net Interest Margin (NIM) proxy. Previous research has often ignored the issue of endogeny and persistence of profitability. Using dynamic panel data from 37 conventional banks during the period 2012–2024, this study applied the Two-Step System Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) method. The results confirm the existence of significant persistence of profitability. It was found that independent factors had different (divergent) impacts on ROA and NIM. Specifically: The Loan-to-Deposit Ratio (LDR) has a positive impact on ROA but negative on NIM. Non-Performing Loans (NPLs) have a negative impact on ROA, but surprisingly positive on NIM. Macro factors (GDP, Inflation, Interest Rates) also show a complex duality of impacts. Banks are advised to maintain optimal LDRs while increasing low-cost Third-Party Funds (DPK) and diversifying non-interest income. Regulators are encouraged to analyze NIM as the core of intermediation efficiency, not just ROA.

Regional Asset Management (BMD) is a crucial element in the implementation of government and public services. However, its practice still faces many obstacles. This study highlights a phenomenon in the Kupang Regency Government, where the Audit Report (LHP) of the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) for 2018-2022 showed significant problems in the administration of fixed assets, which impacted the Fair with Exceptions (WDP) opinion. The main problem identified was the disorderly inventory of assets. This study aims to examine the effect of Information Technology (X1) and Leadership Commitment (X2) on Fixed Asset Management (Y). In addition, this study also examines whether Asset Inventory (Z) moderates (strengthens or weakens) the relationship between information technology and leadership commitment to fixed asset management. This study uses a quantitative approach with a saturated sample of 88 respondents, consisting of OPD leaders and asset administrators in 44 OPDs of the Kupang Regency Government. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM ) based on Partial Least Square (PLS) with SmartPLS 4.0 software. The results of the study show that Information Technology, Leadership Commitment, and Asset Inventory each have a positive and significant effect on Fixed Asset Management.

Labuan Bajo in West Manggarai has experienced rapid transformation as one of Indonesia’s Super Priority Tourism Destinations. Despite expanding tourism activities, poverty reduction has not occurred proportionally among local communities, raising concerns about the relationship between tourism growth and structural socioeconomic factors. This study examines whether tourism-driven GDP expansion, hospitality infrastructure growth, tourism labor absorption, educational attainment, and core infrastructure provision significantly influence poverty reduction. Using a quantitative correlational design, the research analyzes secondary time-series data from 2010 to 2024. Poverty rate serves as the dependent variable, while independent variables include tourism GDP, number of hotels, tourism employment, average years of schooling, and road infrastructure quality. Data were tested through classical assumption diagnostics and multiple linear regression. Results show that tourism GDP, tourism employment, and road infrastructure quality have significant negative effects on poverty, indicating that income generation, job absorption, and connectivity reduce poverty levels. However, hotel growth and schooling years are not statistically significant. The model demonstrates strong explanatory power, emphasizing the importance of inclusive labor participation and infrastructure access in tourism-led development.
