Abstract

This research focuses on analyzing cybersecurity threats to Indonesia in the context of digital political-economic transformation, particularly following the implementation of nickel downstreaming policies and the strengthening of Indonesia's position in the global supply chain for critical minerals. This study aims to examine the structural linkages between national industrial policy, the escalation of Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) activity, the failure of public-private partnerships, stagnant cybersecurity regulations, and the limitations of Indonesia's cyber diplomacy in responding to transnational threats. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method, relying on analysis of policy documents, cyber threat intelligence reports from 2023-2025, academic publications, and critical reviews of strategic events such as the ransomware attack on the Temporary National Data Center. The results indicate that the cyber threats facing Indonesia are systemic and rooted in global political-economic dynamics, where downstreaming policies and dependence on foreign technology create strategic incentives for foreign actors to conduct cyber espionage against strategic industrial sectors. This study also finds weak public-private collaboration due to a trust deficit, regulatory uncertainty, and the absence of incentives for incident reporting, which leads to the state's partial blindness in understanding the national threat landscape. Furthermore, the stagnation of the Cybersecurity and Resilience Bill and the limitations of regional cyber diplomacy highlight the gap between the rhetoric of digital sovereignty and the operational capacity of states. The implications of this research emphasize the urgency of strengthening integrated cybersecurity governance, regulatory reform that balances security and civil rights, and reorienting public-private partnerships as the foundation of cyber resilience.

Abstract

This study examines the construction of digital campaign messages through Meta Ads content in the Umroh Holiday campaign by Adhiya Travel amid increasing competition in the digital marketing of umrah services. The study aims to analyze how content formats, message themes, visual aesthetics, and digital performance. Using a qualitative approach, this research applies content analysis to selected Meta Ads contents (UH-1 to UH-15), complemented by digital performance data (reach, impressions, engagement, and click-through rate) and interviews with expert informants and coders for triangulation. The findings reveal that content emphasizing pilgrims’ experiences and guest star testimonials constitutes the core narrative of the campaign and achieves the highest performance in terms of engagement and visibility. Carousel and reels formats are particularly effective as they support sequential visual storytelling and emotional narratives. Visually, the campaign is characterized by bright color tones, modern typography, and the prominent presence of pilgrims and influencers, reinforcing a warm, family-oriented spiritual travel image. The study concludes that the effectiveness of Meta Ads campaigns is determined not merely by advertising exposure but by the ability of content to foster emotional connection and audience trust. These findings offer practical implications for digital umrah marketing strategies and contribute theoretically to digital marketing communication studies grounded in experiential content.

Abstract

In the discipline of Public Administration, which increasingly acknowledges the crucial role of local wisdom in building responsive governance, this research aims to investigate the process of internalizing the local wisdom value of Mapalus among academic staff at Manado State University, a public higher education institution, with implication for public organizational governance. Using qualitative approach, this study analyzes value communication, cultural understanding, and reinforcemenet mechanisms within the bureaucratic context, through in-depth interviews, observation, and document studies. The findings indicate that Mapalus internalization is strongly supported by cultural foundations and leadership legitimacy, but value communication is informal, and reinforcement mechanisms are dominated by civil servant discipline and external incentives rather than specific Mapalus values. Consequently, Mapalus exist as a personal social ethos but has not been fully institutionally embedded in UNIMA’s work system. This study implies the importance of developing an adaptive value internalization framework for human resources policies and public bureaucratic cultural reforms strategies.

Abstract

The amendment to Law Number 6 of 2014 thru Law Number 3 of 2024, particularly Article 39, brings significant changes to the governance of village administration in Indonesia. This revision extends the term of office for the Village Head from six to eight years and strengthens the administrative role of the Village Secretary. This research examines the legal and empirical implications of these changes for village governance in Losari District, Brebes Regency, which is a border area and considered underdeveloped. Using a legal-empirical approach, data was obtained thru interviews, observation, and document analysis. The research results indicate that the cooperation between the Village Head and the Village Secretary generally supports administrative order and the improvement of public services. However, there are practical challenges such as limited human resources, a decrease in village funds each year, an administrative burden centered on the Village Secretary, the tendency of the Village Consultative Body (BPD) to be passive, and inconsistent public services. The community also demands greater transparency thru information boards and more structured village office management. Despite these challenges, the Village Device Working Team (TIRAKAT) emerged as a local innovation that strengthens adaptive governance. The Village Secretary remains a key figure in maintaining reporting and accountability, with the support of the District Head's oversight function. This research recommends a biennial participatory evaluation, strengthening the capacity of village officials, optimizing the role of TIRAKAT, and digitalization.

Abstract

Traditions are one form of local wisdom passed down thru generations and still preserved by society, including in the context of Javanese traditional weddings. One tradition that is still maintained is the egg-stepping ceremony, where the groom steps on chicken eggs that are then cleaned by the bride. This process has deep philosophical significance, namely the husband's readiness to take on household responsibilities and the wife's sincerity in supporting and serving her partner. However, the tide of modernization has led some young generations to view it merely as a ceremonial ritual without understanding the values and philosophy it contains. This research aims to describe the implementation of the egg-stepping tradition among Javanese people in Batang Kuis Pekan Village, analyze the symbolic meaning contained within it, and explain the integration of Islamic values into the tradition. The research uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data was collected thru observation, interviews with traditional leaders, religious figures, the wedding couple, and community members, as well as documentation of the wedding procession. Data analysis was conducted thru reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions. The research results show that the egg-stepping tradition is still carried out as part of the cultural identity of Javanese society, with symbolic meanings that align with Islamic teachings, such as responsibility, compassion, justice, and respect within the household. This tradition does not contradict Islamic law; in fact, it can be used as a means of cultural proselytization to strengthen Islamic values in community life. Thus, this research affirms the importance of maintaining a balance between preserving local cultural heritage and implementing Islamic values so that traditions remain relevant in the modern era.

Abstract

The implementation of Regent Regulation of Batu Bara Regency Number 29 of 2024 constitutes an important instrument in organizing the procedures for the collection of the Non-Metal and Rock Mineral Tax (MBLB) as one of the sources of Regional Original Revenue. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the regulation and to identify the factors influencing its effectiveness in the 2024 Fiscal Year. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation at the Regional Revenue Agency of Batu Bara Regency. Data analysis was conducted using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman. The analytical framework applies George C. Edwards III’s policy implementation theory, which consists of the variables of communication, resources, implementers’ disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The results indicate that the implementation of Regent Regulation Number 29 of 2024 has been carried out, but it has not yet been fully optimal. The aspects of communication and bureaucratic structure have functioned relatively well; however, limitations in personnel resources, weak supervision, low taxpayer compliance, and the prevalence of illegal mining remain major obstacles. The disposition of implementers generally shows good commitment, but it has not been fully supported by adequate systems and facilities. Therefore, strengthening coordination, improving the capacity of personnel, and enhancing supervision and data collection systems are key measures to optimize MBLB tax revenue in Batu Bara Regency.

This study aims to analyze the legal consequences of marriage annulment because one of the couples changes religion and the mechanism of sharing joint property after the annulment of the marriage. The research method used is normative legal research with a regulatory approach and a conceptual approach. Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage and Compilation of Islamic Law. Thus, even if the marriage is declared null and void, the civil rights of the parties still receive legal protection.

Abstract

Copyright is regulated in Law Number 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright. Licensing agreements are the main legal instruments that govern the payment of royalties and the inclusion of the creator's name as a way of respecting moral rights. However, in practice, legal protection for songwriters has not been optimal due to low legal awareness among creators, weak law enforcement in the digital space, and ineffective royalty management systems on digital platforms. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen regulations, raise legal awareness, and optimize the role of governments and digital platforms to create a balance between freedom of expression and copyright protection in the digital economy era

Abstract

The practice of companies withholding diplomas as a condition of employment is an employment law issue that reflects the unequal position between employers and workers and the weak protection of workers' rights. Although this practice is not explicitly regulated in employment law, it has the potential to go against the principles of freedom of contract, fair employment relations, and human rights. This study aims to analyze the form of legal protection for workers, and the government's responsibility in preventing and combating this practice. Through normative legal research, it was concluded that the detention of diplomas could violate the constitutional rights of workers, potentially making the agreement invalid. Legal protection can be provided in a preventive and repressive manner, based on national law and international human rights instruments. The government's responsibility is strengthened through supervision, mediation, and the issuance of the Circular Letter of the Minister of Manpower No. M/5/HK.04.00/V/2025. Nevertheless, stronger laws and regulations are needed to ensure legal certainty and the effectiveness of legal protection for employees
