Abstract

With the inclusion of Baduy in the list of Rural Tourism, it also brings tourists with the habits they bring. Tourism needs and tourist behavior such as bringing mobile phones, taking pictures are feared to affect and are considered to threaten the purity of teachings and beliefs in Baduy. The novelty of this research is to fill the gap of existing problems or a void of knowledge, lack of literature that focuses on the Threat of Cultural Degradation because of the existence of Baduy Dalam Tribe Residents who have activities as tour guides, and they are suspected of having cell phones and Instagram social media which are considered contrary to the customary rules of the Baduy Tribe. The research method used is qualitative with a case study approach. Data collection through interviews, observation and documentation. The data obtained will be analyzed using the Miles & Huberman interactive model. Baduy customary rules strictly prohibit the use of technology, but local guides from the Baduy Dalam tribe are found using mobile phones and Instagram social media to attract tourists to use their services. There is a social change in local guides as they adjust to the needs of tourists. They use this technology secretly because they realize that they have violated customary rules. The customary leader explained that what happened to the local guide had indirectly violated customary rules. The conclusion of this research is that there is a threat of cultural degradation due to tourism activities, especially for tour guides from the Baduy Dalam Tribe. Mobile phone ownership and the use of Instagram social media to attract tourists to use guiding services are considered contrary to customary rules.

Abstract

This study investigates the motivations driving young Indonesian travelers, particularly Millennials and Generation Z, to choose Vietnam as a travel destination. The research addresses a key gap in the literature by exploring the travel motivation using push and pull motivational factors. Using a quantitative approach, the study employed a self-administered questionnaire, distributed both online and offline to 144 young Indonesian travelers. The gathered data were analyzed using factor analysis to reduce the 39 push and pull motivational factors into a new set of underlying factors. Informal interviews and observation were also performed to support the analysis. The findings indicate that push motivation (internal psychological motivations), comprises of social achievement, learning motivation, stress relief, and social bonding were found to be four underlying push factors that motivate young Indonesian travelers to visit Vietnam. Meanwhile, travel standards, affordability, tourist amenities, cultural experiences, and natural landscapes appeared to be the pull factors. This finding serves as one of initial efforts to examine young Indonesian traveler’s behavior as the main target market for Vietnam Tourism. The study's implications also suggest that this study could provide a basis for Indonesian government to develop a more effective marketing strategies aimed at making local destinations more appealing to this segment compared to overseas options such as Vietnam. Furthermore, it is advisable for future research to study the characteristics of other generational groups as this could reveal significant differences compared to the younger generation.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of leadership competence and the Board of Education policies on resolving educational issues in the Wonosobo Regency. A quantitative survey approach was used, involving 100 respondents consisting of educators and Board members. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression in SPSS version 22. The descriptive results show that the Board’s competence scored an average of 70.79, while their policies averaged 65.55, indicating significant variability among respondents. Normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity tests confirmed that the data met the basic assumptions for regression. The regression analysis revealed that both the competence of the Board (t = 12.078, p < 0.001) and their policies (t = 7.762, p < 0.001) significantly impact the resolution of educational problems. The F-statistic of 7443.92 (p < 0.001) further confirmed the significance of the model. With an R-squared value of 0.693, the model explains 69.3% of the variability in solving educational problems. These findings suggest that improving leadership competence and policy effectiveness within the Board of Education is crucial to addressing educational challenges in the Wonosobo Regency. Consequently, the null hypothesis was rejected, and the alternative hypothesis was accepted, emphasizing the strategic role of the Board of Education in enhancing educational quality and effectiveness in the region.

Abstract

The Tembang Macapat, a Javanese literary tradition, intricately weaves together the journey of human growth and development—from the womb to our eventual return to the Divine. Each melodic stanza of the macapat resonates with a unique rhythm, mirroring the multifaceted nature of our existence. In this rich tapestry of Javanese culture, we find echoes of Lawrence Kohlberg’s three moral development stages: Pre-Conventional (focused on punishment and self-interest), Conventional (emphasizing social compliance and self-worth), and Post-Conventional (guided by social contracts and universal ethical principles). As humans evolve, they undergo profound transformations—a truth eloquently expressed in the tembang macapat. These verses serve as both a testament to our shared humanity and a call to personal excellence. Through their melodic wisdom, we aspire to become virtuous individuals who have fully blossomed. This paper delves into the exploration of Javanese moral development, anchored in the macapat, as seen through the lens of cultural enthusiasts in Malang. Employing a qualitative research approach with ethnographic methods, we unravel the intricate threads of morality woven into the very fabric of Javanese life.

Abstract

One kind of ecotourism makes use of the resources already present in a destination's natural and cultural landscapes. Muara Village in Tangerang Regency is home to a mangrove forest that could be transformed into an ecotourism hotspot. The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility of creating an ecotourism destination in Muara Village's mangrove forest, as well as the obstacles that may be in the way, and to provide solutions. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach, gathering data via in-depth interviews, literature reviews, and field observations. Mangrove woods in Muara Village have enormous untapped potential in terms of biodiversity and educational value, according to the study. The main challenges faced are the lack of public awareness about the importance of preserving mangrove forests and the limited tourism support facilities. The proposed ecotourism development strategy includes increasing the capacity of local communities, developing supporting infrastructure, and sustainable promotion.

Abstract

This study presents a systematic review of the literature related to the principles of educational administration, with an emphasis on goal-oriented management as the main approach. The review integrates key findings from 179 documents retrieved from the Scopus database, identifying key principles such as leadership, strategic planning, decision-making, resource allocation and stakeholder engagement. The results show that these principles are crucial in aligning educational administration with institutional goals, which in turn enhances overall effectiveness and promotes continuous improvement. Although the benefits of goal-oriented management are evident, challenges such as resistance to change, limited resources and competing priorities remain obstacles. Nevertheless, opportunities for improvement remain visible, especially through technology integration, professional development, and collaborative partnerships. The findings offer valuable insights for education administrators and policymakers who want to implement goal-oriented management practices to drive better educational outcomes.

Abstract

Mangrove forests are important resources that provide various ecosystem services ecologically, economically, socially, and culturally. However, the utilisation of mangrove ecosystems often faces management conflicts. Conflicts can occur between residents in the mangrove area or between agencies and levels of authority. The diversity of governance from various decentralised, connected and functionally different layers implies a complex system. The polycentric model is one approach to addressing the system's complexity. This study uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques using interviews and observations. The aim is to examine the recognition of residents and the government for local community initiatives. This study found several essential things. First, the context of authority over the mangrove location by supra-village agencies, but in several decades, it has become a conservation and management area for residents. Second, recipients of ecosystem services and their utilisation involve residents from outside the administrative boundaries of the village. Third, cross-sector and level agreements for recognising mangrove ecosystem management initiatives based on local community wisdom. The model of recognition and autonomy given to local communities by higher authorities is the basis for sustainable polycentric governance of mangrove ecosystems. De facto autonomy includes four aspects, including: autonomy in decision-making, formal recognition, cross-actor collaboration, and control over access to resources.

Abstract

This study analyzes the influence of women's leadership on implementing flexible work arrangements (FWA), with work-life balance (WLB) acting as a mediator, in the financial industry in West Java and Jakarta. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 110 respondents working in various financial institutions and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings reveal that women’s leadership significantly and positively affects the adoption of FWA, primarily through its impact on employees' WLB. Women leaders are shown to have a deeper understanding of the importance of balancing work and personal life, which fosters the successful implementation of flexible work practices. This research contributes to the existing literature on women's leadership, work-life balance, and flexible work policies, particularly in the financial sector. From a practical standpoint, the results provide important insights for organizations aiming to develop leadership strategies and inclusive work policies that promote employee well-being and organizational effectiveness through better WLB and FWA practices.
