Abstract

The object of this research is business actors in coconut commodities and their derivatives as part of agricultural businesses in Matani Village, Tumpaaan District, South Minasa Regency. Apart from producing coconuts, these business actors also produce coconut derivative products such as copra, coconut oil, shells, coconut flour and cocopeat which are coconut derivative products. Most of the coconut fruit produced and its derivatives are sold directly without further processing, such as copra, shells, coconut fiber (gonofu). However, nowadays, apart from being sold directly, coconut fiber is also often further processed into cocopeat before being sold. Business actors in coconut commodities and their derivatives are also subjective taxpayers, because they have a NPWP (Taxpayer Identification Number) but have not yet carried out their tax obligations. By reporting their tax obligations, this is due to ignorance of the tax obligations attached to their business activities. The partner businesses that are the object of this research are micro businesses in the agricultural sector which are run as home businesses and are included in the category of micro businesses which have tax obligations as individuals. Likewise, the distribution of sales of coconut and its derivatives is only in the local area and around North Sulawesi, without any export or sales activities abroad. This research aims to find out how export management is in accordance with the regulations and what tax obligations are attached. for export activities of coconut and its derivatives. So this research will produce an export management model and tax aspects that will help coconut business actors and their derivatives in carrying out export activities. This research uses descriptive qualitative research methods with research methods in the form of research stages in which there are research methods with research flows that produce export management and tax aspects.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the socio-economic conditions of extreme poor communities in Medalsari Village and Sinarjaya Village, Pandeglang Regency. This topic was raised to understand the factors that influence extreme poverty in both villages and to identify effective mitigation strategies based on local conditions. Another reason for choosing this theme is that the village with the highest level of extreme poverty in Pandeglang, which requires a strategic and effective approach to get out of the extreme poverty zone and reduce its impact. The research method used is a quantitative method with a survey technique. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to respondents totaling 117 Heads of Families for Sinarjaya Village, and 139 Heads of Families for Medalsari Village which came from P3KE Bappeda Pandeglang Regency data. This survey involved aspects such as income, education level, access to basic services, and employment conditions. The research findings show that there are still households that are not categorized as extremely poor, most heads of families work in the informal sector (laborers and farmers) with limited skills and experience, social support in the form of government assistance has not fully covered their basic needs, families try to cover the shortfall through alternative businesses and rely on social assistance, although the potential productivity of family members can still be increased. The impact of this research is expected to provide more targeted and data-based policy recommendations to reduce extreme poverty in Pandeglang Regency. These findings are also expected to be a reference for stakeholders in designing more effective and sustainable poverty alleviation programs.

Abstract

Tourism villages have become a vital strategy for rural economic development in Indonesia, yet many face significant management challenges that impede sustainable growth. This study examines the readiness of tourism management in Napal Jungur Tourism Village, Seluma Regency, employing a descriptive qualitative approach using Terry's management theory to analyze five key dimensions: self-audit, survey, objective, action, and communication. Data were collected through direct observation, semi-structured interviews with 25 key informants, focus group discussions, and document analysis, followed by SWOT analysis. The findings reveal an uneven readiness profile across management dimensions, with the SWOT coordinate analysis positioning Napal Jungur in Quadrant I (0.80, 0.69), indicating positive growth potential. Natural environment, active youth participation, and village government support represent significant strengths, while weaknesses include limited dining facilities, weak marketing, inadequate maintenance systems, and underdeveloped management expertise. Napal Jungur Tourism Village demonstrates promising potential for sustainable tourism development but requires strategic interventions to enhance management capacity, particularly in formalizing objectives, developing systematic management approaches, and improving communication strategies to facilitate the transition from establishment to consolidation phase of tourism development.

Abstract

This study investigates the pedagogical value of a discourse-based approach in teaching Business English within an English for Specific Purposes (ESP) context. It focuses on how this approach enhances learners’ acquisition, contextual use, and retention of business-related vocabulary, while also fostering greater communicative competence. A mixed-methods design was employed, combining both descriptive and experimental techniques to collect and analyze data. The participants were Master 1 Business English students who underwent a 12-week instructional program integrating discourse analysis principles and authentic materials. Findings indicate that students exposed to the discourse-based methodology outperformed those taught using traditional methods, particularly in their ability to understand and apply business vocabulary in real-world communicative settings. Moreover, learners reported increased confidence and fluency in using business language appropriately across intercultural and professional contexts. These results highlight the discourse-based approach as a promising strategy for developing both linguistic and pragmatic competencies, recommending its broader adoption in Business English instruction.

Abstract

The research, "Case Study Analysis of Substance Abuse in Schools within Critical Social Work Practice," examines the complexity of substance abuse among students within a social work framework. It highlights how social, economic, and psychological factors contribute to students’ substance use, especially for those from disadvantaged backgrounds. Through Alex’s case, the study illustrates how family instability and socio-economic hardships can lead to substance abuse as a coping mechanism. The paper advocates a critical social work approach, grounded in Marxist theory, humanism, and critical thinking, to address systemic issues influencing substance use. This approach emphasizes a shift from punitive measures to supportive interventions within schools and communities, including collaboration with families and policy advocacy. By focusing on socio-economic determinants and the need for structural change, the study provides a framework for creating supportive educational environments that address the root causes of substance use and promote positive behavioral change among students.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on Algeria’s foreign trade flows (exports and imports) over the period 1995–2023. It employs the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model to capture both short-term dynamics and long-run equilibrium relationships. The relevance of this topic stems from the growing importance of understanding how currency volatility influences trade performance in the Algerian economy, particularly amid global economic uncertainty and recurrent monetary shocks. A descriptive-analytical approach is adopted, integrating econometric modeling to examine the interactions among key macroeconomic variables—namely, exchange rate, GDP, and inflation. The ARDL methodology facilitates a robust empirical framework, enabling the estimation of both immediate responses and long-term adjustments. The results reveal that GDP has a statistically significant and positive effect on trade flows, reinforcing the crucial role of economic growth in supporting export and import activity. Inflation, by contrast, negatively affects export competitiveness, suggesting the need for coordinated monetary stabilization. The Error Correction Model (ECM) indicates a relatively fast speed of adjustment, with 63.65% of short-term disequilibria corrected in the subsequent period. This study contributes to the limited body of applied research on North African economies by applying a dynamic modeling framework that remains underutilized in the region. The findings offer new insights into Algeria’s macroeconomic behavior under currency shocks and provide a solid empirical foundation for policy formulation. Policy implications highlight the need for a more flexible exchange rate regime, inflation-targeting strategies, and broader structural reforms to stabilize trade performance, reduce external vulnerabilities, and enhance long-term economic resilience.
