Abstract

This community service activity was conducted to address the Spirit Enthusiast Community's limited understanding of basic distillation techniques and their dependence on juniper berries at Brew & Butter, Tangerang. Dependence on imported materials raises production costs and limits innovation in botanical spirit products. The purpose of this activity was to enhance participants' knowledge and competence in producing botanical spirits through simple distillation techniques that utilize local spices as alternatives to traditional botanical ingredients. Implementation involved material presentations, distillation demonstrations using a simple pot still, botanical compounding practice, and basic organoleptic evaluation. Effectiveness was measured via pre-test and post-test assessments of participants' understanding. Results showed significant improvements in comprehension of the distillation process, characteristics of local spice aromas, principles of equipment hygiene, and participants' ability to evaluate the aroma, taste, and aftertaste of botanical spirits. Participants responded positively to the training's relevance and benefits. This activity strengthens the capacity of the spirit enthusiast community, promotes innovation based on Indonesian spices, and supports the development of more creative and sustainable craft spirits.

Abstract

The management of household organic waste remains a significant challenge in various rural areas of Indonesia, including Centong Village, Gondang Subdistrict, Mojokerto Regency. The SIKOMPAS program (Socialization of Takakura Composting for the Community) was implemented as a community service initiative by the BBK student team of Universitas Airlangga to introduce organic waste management methods using the Takakura composting technique and the utilization of Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae. The program employed an educative and participatory approach through hands-on demonstrations and knowledge evaluation via pre- and post-tests. The results showed a significant increase in participants’ understanding of key concepts, technical steps, and the environmental and economic benefits of the Takakura and BSF composting methods. All participants demonstrated active involvement and improved post-test scores across nearly all knowledge indicators. The program also contributed to achieving SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), and SDG 13 (Climate Action) through reduced air pollution from waste burning and mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions. Thus, SIKOMPAS is effective as a community-based intervention in establishing an independent, low-emission, and sustainable organic waste management system.

Abstract

This study analyzes how the rights of creditors who hold guarantees in the PKPU process are affected by the rejection of the peace agreement. This research was prepared using juridical doctrinal research methods and legal comparisons between the provisions in Law Number 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and PKPU in Indonesia and the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act in Canada. The right of creditors of the guarantor in PKPU who reject the peace agreement as mentioned in Article 281 paragraph (2) of Law Number 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and PKPU is stated to receive compensation equal to the lowest value among the value of the collateral in the collateral document or the value of the collateral object determined by the appraiser appointed by the Supervisory Judge or the actual value of the loan. However, there are no further arrangements regarding the mechanism, period and legal consequences for the application or violation of these provisions, thus creating a legal vacuum and potentially harming the right of the creditor to obtain compensation. Furthermore, the creditors of the guarantor also cannot or at least have difficulty executing the object of the guarantee to obtain repayment of receivables against the debtor. On the other hand, in the restructuring process through the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act in Canada, the creditor of the guarantor may execute the object of the guarantee with the approval of the judge if it does not approve the restructuring plan submitted by the debtor and can prove that the debtor no longer has the ability to carry out the restructuring plan and the debtor is unable to carry out its debt payment obligations to creditors. This can be conveyed by submitting an application to the court to lift the stay period to execute the object of the guarantee. In the end, this study proposes a form of further regulation of Article 281 paragraph (2) of Law Number 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and PKPU, which is at least in the form of a Government Regulation to regulate the mechanism, period, and legal consequences of the provision of compensation from debtors for creditors who reject the peace plan in the PKPU process.

Abstract

The growth of crypto asset investors in Indonesia will reach 20.9 million by August 2024, but the Marriage Law Number 1 of 1974 has not specifically regulated digital assets, both as joint property and personal property. This research aims to analyze the categorization of crypto assets as business assets that can be regulated through prenuptial and postnuptial agreements to protect the rights of each party. The research approach used is juridical-normative through a literature review of laws, government regulations, academic references, and relevant scientific works. The findings of the study show that crypto assets are grouped into movable objects that do not have a form according to Articles 499 and 503 of the Civil Code, and qualify as business assets because they function as taxable investment instruments. Therefore, the regulation of crypto assets in prenuptial agreements or postnuptial agreements based on Article 35 paragraph (2) jo. Article 29 of the Marriage Law is important to provide legal certainty regarding the status of ownership and division of property.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze and identify internal and external factors that are influential in the development of the microfinance portfolio. This research is a case study conducted by tracing data and information obtained from PT BSI, both at the center (MBG), Region VI Bandung, area and KCP Sukabumi Sudirman. The results of the total scores of the IFE and EFE matrix will be mapped with the IE matrix and then the formulation of strategies will be carried out to formulate the main strategy alternatives with the SWOT matrix and the QSPM matrix for better results. The results of the analysis with the IFE and EFE matrix were obtained that the dominant internal and external factors at BSI KCP Sukabumi Sudirman are cheap financing pricing with BSI People's Business Credit (KUR) products, easy requirements, Service Level Agreement (SLA) fast financing process, sharia financing contracts, microfinance promotion is still very lacking, restrictions on business segments that can be financed and coaching programs for business groups are still very lacking.  while the number of MSMEs in Sukabumi is very large, the public's interest in switching to Islamic banking is very high and competing banks that sell micro products are quite large. Based on the results of the SWOT analysis, it shows that alternative strategies that can be applied based on QSPM are building cooperation with micro business communities through micro-cluster financing, maximizing online marketing and services, innovating microfinance products to adapt to the development of community needs and improving the quality of human resources by consistently carrying out employee education and training.

Abstract

The national energy transition encourages the application of biomass co-firing technology in Steam Power Plants (PLTU) as an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase the renewable energy mix. The success of the implementation of co-firing is greatly influenced by the selection of the right biomass raw materials, considering the trade-off between benefits, costs, and operational risks. This study aims to determine the most optimal co-firing biomass raw materials in coal-fired power plants using the Benefit-Cost–Risk Analysis approach combined with the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. The study was conducted on one of the coal-fired power plants in East Java by comparing three alternatives, namely sawdust, rice husks, and coal without co-firing. The weighting of criteria was carried out through expert assessment using AHP paired comparisons. The selected alternatives were then analyzed for their environmental impact using the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach with the scope of cradle to gate. The results show that sawdust has the highest Benefit value, a Benefit–Cost (BCR) ratio above one, and a level of risk that can still be managed compared to other alternatives. The LCA analysis identified boiler units as the main hotspots of environmental impact, so operational improvements were recommended through water-steam system control. This research provides a basis for strategic decision-making in the selection of co-firing biomass that supports the energy transition and environmental sustainability.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze how a fashion design training curriculum based on Muslim dress principles serves as a strategic communication tool to build institutional brand identity and brand equity at the Islamic Fashion Institute (IFI), Bandung, Indonesia. The study employs a qualitative approach with an intrinsic case study method. Data were collected through triangulation, including in-depth interviews with curriculum designers and instructors, document analysis of the syllabi, and focus group discussions (FGD) with alumni and active students. Thematic analysis was applied using Kapferer’s Brand Identity Prism and Keller’s Customer-Based Brand Equity (CBBE) framework. The results indicate that the Sharia-based curriculum acts as the core brand message and a meaning-making system. The integration of Fiqh (Islamic Jurisprudence) of fashion, Islamic aesthetics, and Sharia business ethics serves as a potent brand differentiator. This "substance-led" branding constructs a robust "Culture" dimension, creating an authentic brand experience that elevates institutional brand equity through high brand resonance among graduates. Research limitations/implications As a single-site case study focusing on a pioneer vocational institution, the findings may have limited generalizability to conventional fashion schools. Future research could explore the application of this curriculum-based branding model in different cultural or religious educational contexts. Practical implications For Islamic educational institutions, the study suggests that branding should be rooted in pedagogical substance rather than mere external promotion. Developing a unique, values-driven curriculum can serve as a sustainable competitive advantage in the global Halal industry. Originality/value This research proposes a novel conceptual framework: Curriculum-Based Branding. It shifts the paradigm from marketing-led communication to an internal-out approach where the curriculum itself functions as the primary strategic communication instrument to construct institutional identity.
