Abstract

The international Community Partnership Program (PKM) is an effort to enhance globally competitive campus entrepreneurship. The purpose of this community service program is to discuss the international PKM model based on cooperative collaboration in the ASEAN region, with a focus on the exchange of best practices, cooperative digitalization, and the development of student entrepreneurship-based business units. Activities were carried out through literature studies, field observations at partner cooperatives in Malaysia (ANGKASA), and capacity building workshops for university cooperative managers. The results indicate that cross-border collaboration can strengthen cooperative business networks, encourage the emergence of adaptive campus entrepreneurship models, and expand market access for student products. This article offers a framework for the international PKM model that can be replicated at other universities in Indonesia to accelerate the internationalization of campus cooperatives. This approach not only improves student business literacy but also expands business networks and innovation across countries. The research used a descriptive qualitative method with a case study approach on collaboration between student cooperatives in Indonesia and Malaysia. The results indicate that cross-border collaboration in the form of joint entrepreneurship training, business incubation, and the transfer of digital cooperative practices has a significant impact on increasing student entrepreneurial interest and capacity. This model is recommended as a leading PKM program integrated with the Independent Learning and Independent Campus (MBKM) policy and the ASEAN economic integration agenda.

Abstract

The Community Service Program (PKM) implemented in Malaysia has opened up opportunities for international collaboration in developing information technology (IT) innovations to support the digital transformation of cooperatives in higher education settings. This activity underscored the importance of adapting technology to cooperative management systems to enhance efficiency, transparency, and accountability. Through a pilot study of digital cooperative models such as ANGKASA in Malaysia, participants gained insights into the implementation of integrated application-based information systems, the use of big data in membership management, and the optimization of digital platforms for financial reporting. The results of this activity demonstrated that the adoption of IT technology in Indonesian higher education cooperatives can strengthen institutional competitiveness, accelerate service processes, and increase active member participation. This PKM also reflects that the synergy between technological innovation and higher education-based cooperative governance is a strategic step towards modern and competitive cooperatives in the ASEAN digital era.

Abstract

    ASEAN regional economic integration emphasizes the importance of regulatory harmonization across various sectors, including cooperatives. This study aims to examine the suitability and challenges of harmonizing cooperative regulations across ASEAN countries through a legal review of Malaysia's cooperative regulatory system. As a country with a developed cooperative legal framework, Malaysia offers best practices in national cooperative management that can be reflected in strengthening the regional cooperative legal framework. This research method uses a normative qualitative approach with a comparative legal analysis of cooperative legislation in Malaysia and several other ASEAN countries. The study results indicate that despite differences in the legal and institutional structures of cooperatives across ASEAN countries, there is potential room for harmonization through shared fundamental principles, such as economic democracy, member involvement, and business sustainability. These findings support the need for cross-border policy dialogue to formulate ASEAN cooperative regulatory standards that are adaptive, inclusive, and appropriate to local characteristics. Harmonization of cooperative regulations across the ASEAN region is considered strategic in promoting economic integration based on community participation and social justice.

Abstract

3rd grade high school students are still confused about choosing which state university they will enter as well as private universities both in Indonesia and in West Sumatra, especially SMA Negeri 1 Rao Pasaman Timur Sumbar and SMA Negeri 1 Muara Sipongi Mandailing Natal North Sumatra who are still confused about choosing a university with the right major according to their talents and interests. To eliminate their confusion, we, the lecturers of the Faculty of Economics, Dharma Andalas University, feel the need to provide guidance and counseling to them about choosing the right state or private university according to their talents later so that they do not get stressed in carrying out their studies later. Dharma Andalas University is the only private university under the guidance of UNAND alumni located in the center of Padang city which is easily accessible to students later. This is one of the advantages of Dharma Andalas University. This promotional activity was carried out at SMA Negeri 1 Rao Pasaman Timur West Sumatra and SMA Negeri 1 Muara Sipongi Mandailing Natal North Sumatra. This community service-based promotional activity was very helpful for the third-grade students who were visited. After being given guidance and counseling, they learned that the quality of higher education is largely determined by the accreditation of each study program. And featuring the study programs at Dharma Andalas University, which consists of 17 study programs, they were very enthusiastic about participating in this guidance and counseling event which was showered with various questions related to strategies for choosing a quality college according to their talents.
