Abstract

This study aims to identify, analyze, and assess the effect of waiting room service quality and departure terminal facilities on passenger satisfaction at Kualanamu International Airport, North Sumatra. This study uses a quantitative approach with associative methods. A total of 100 respondents were selected through random sampling techniques and data were collected using questionnaire instruments that include variables of waiting room service quality, departure terminal facilities, and passenger satisfaction. Data analysis was done by multiple linear regression techniques. The results of partial analysis showed that the quality of Service waiting room has a significant effect on passenger satisfaction with the value of tcount= 6.311 which is greater than Ttable=1.660 and significance of 0.000 (<0.05). Similarly, the departure terminal facilities have a significant effect with the value of t count=4.127 which is also greater than T table=1.660 and significance 0.000 (<0.05). Simultaneously, the quality of Service waiting room and departure terminal facilities significantly affect passenger satisfaction with a value of Fcount=152.284 greater than Ftable=3.09 and significance 0.000 (<0.05). Determination value of 75.3% indicates that the variable quality of service lounge and departure terminal facilities explain most of the variations in passenger satisfaction variables. This study recommends that Kualanamu airport managers improve service quality by adding seats, improving air conditioning systems and renewing entertainment facilities. Further research, it is recommended to expand the scope of variables, use qualitative methods and conduct comparisons between airports in order to broaden the outlook and develop a more comprehensive service improvement strategy.

Abstract

This study aims to identify, analyze, and assess the impact of aviation security control and supervision on flight safety at Kualanamu International Airport in North Sumatra. Using a quantitative approach and correlational methods, data were collected from 80 respondents selected through random sampling techniques. A questionnaire was used to gather data on the variables of aviation security control, supervision, and flight safety. Multiple linear regression was employed to analyze the data. The results of the partial analysis showed that aviation security control significantly affects flight safety at Kualanamu International Airport, with a t-value (tcount) of 3.290, higher than the t-table value of 1.664, and a significance level of 0.002 (< 0.05). Likewise, aviation security supervision also significantly affects flight safety, with a t-value (tcount) of 8.101, greater than the t-table value, and a significance level of 0.000 (< 0.05). Simultaneously, both control and supervision significantly impact flight safety, with an F-value (Fcount) of 82.109, exceeding the F-table value of 3.12, and a significance of 0.000 (< 0.05). The determination coefficient of 67.2% indicates that the control and supervision variables explain most of the variations in flight safety. This study recommends enhancing security control through regular evaluations, improved training based on realistic threat simulations, and strengthened teamwork. Increasing the frequency of supervision with specialized teams and expanding monitoring systems with additional CCTV in under-monitored areas are also essential to ensure optimal security at the airport.

Abstract

This research examines the role of Islamic financial institutions in promoting economic stability through a literature study of recent scholarly contributions. Islamic financial institutions are seen as alternative financial instruments that operate under Islamic principles, which prohibit usury, excessive speculation, and non-transparent activities. This research aims to understand the mechanisms used by Islamic financial institutions in creating economic stability and evaluate the latest empirical evidence supporting such contributions. The research method used is a literature study with a qualitative approach, where various journals and research reports on Islamic finance, economic stability, and monetary policy are reviewed and analysed. The results show that Islamic financial institutions play an important role in economic stability through asset-based financing, portfolio diversification, as well as the application of risk management in accordance with Islamic principles. This research contributes to providing policy makers, academics, and financial practitioners with a deeper understanding of the potential of Islamic financial institutions as instruments that can strengthen economic stability.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the influence of tax incentives on MSME performance and sustainability in the city of Surakarta. Data was collected through a survey of MSME players and analyzed using the Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The research results show that tax incentives have a positive and significant influence on MSME performance (path coefficient = 0.506, p < 0.001) and business sustainability (path coefficient = 0.253, p = 0.040). In addition, the performance of MSMEs contributes significantly to sustainability (path coefficient = 0.381, p = 0.002). These findings underscore the importance of supportive fiscal policies, such as tax incentives, to improve operational efficiency, strengthen liquidity, and facilitate sustainable investment. The implications of this research include the need for more specific fiscal policies to encourage sustainability, educating MSMEs about the benefits of sustainability, and further research on less accessible sectors, such as the creative economy and technological innovation.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has fundamentally transformed organizational landscapes, accelerating digital transformation initiatives and highlighting the critical importance of organizational agility. This study examines the relationship between strategic leadership, digital transformation, and organizational agility in the Indonesian business context during the post-pandemic era. Using a mixed-methods approach combining quantitative surveys (n=284) with qualitative in-depth interviews (n=32), this research investigates how strategic leadership capabilities facilitate digital transformation and enhance organizational agility. The study employs transformational leadership theory, upper echelons theory, and dynamic capabilities framework to understand the mechanisms through which leadership drives organizational change. Findings reveal that strategic leadership significantly mediates the relationship between digital transformation initiatives and organizational agility, with Indonesian organizations demonstrating unique adaptation patterns influenced by cultural and contextual factors. The research contributes to leadership and organizational change literature by providing empirical evidence of how strategic leaders navigate digital transformation challenges while building organizational resilience. Practical implications suggest that organizations must develop adaptive leadership capabilities, invest in digital literacy, and create flexible organizational structures to thrive in the post-pandemic business environment.

Abstract

The digital era has brought about significant transformation in the accounting profession, offering greater convenience, efficiency, and accuracy through technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), big data, blockchain, and automation. However, these technological developments have also given rise to complex ethical challenges, particularly in terms of financial statement integrity, data security, and transparency. This study aims to explore the challenges and opportunities faced by the accounting profession in building and maintaining professional ethics amidst advances in digital technology. Based on the literature review, the main challenges faced by accountants include data privacy and security issues, the potential for misuse of technology to manipulate financial statements, and the loss of subjective elements of professionalism due to automation. On the other hand, technology also provides opportunities to increase transparency of financial statements, strengthen supervision and audits, and enrich accountants' competencies in deeper data analysis. This study suggests the importance of ethics training that is more relevant to technological developments, as well as the wise use of technology to strengthen the principles of accountability and integrity in the accounting profession. The findings of this study are expected to provide insight for practitioners, educators, and policy makers in creating a more professional and ethical work environment in the world of digital accounting.
