Abstract

Examining how Indonesia is implementing human rights under the 1945 Constitution is the aim of this journal. Human rights are basic freedoms that are innate to all people, eternal, and unalienable. No one, not even the state apparatus and government, is allowed to deny, curtail, or take away a person's human rights. Through a number of legal measures, the state has also guaranteed the protection of human rights, as stated in various sections of the 1945 Constitution. Indonesia is required to respect the principles of human rights as stated in the 1945 Constitution as a legitimate state. The purpose of the theory used is to describe the problem's quality and explanation using a qualitative method approach. According to the analysis, Indonesia's implementation of human rights is firmly based on the 1945 Constitution and the Rule of Law, which is consistent with the country's goals as a formal legal state and suggests that the state is dedicated to upholding human rights. The 1945 Constitution states that every person has the right to bodily and spiritual well-being in addition to human rights in the social, political, economic, cultural, educational, and religious spheres.

Abstract

This study explores the interplay of religious festivals, specifically Diwali and Eid, in shaping national and ethnic identity concepts within Indian society. The objective of this research was to analyse how Diwali, predominantly celebrated by Hindus, and Eid, central to the Muslim community, contribute to both national unity and ethnic distinctiveness in India. Using a qualitative comparative study approach, archival research and media content analysis were conducted to examine the broader socio-political narratives surrounding these festivals. Findings revealed that Diwali is closely tied to the construction of Hindu identity and is often intertwined with Indian national identity, promoting a sense of unity. Eid, on the other hand, reinforced ethnic and religious identity among Muslims, fostering community cohesion while simultaneously highlighting the complexities of belonging within the larger national framework. The study concludes that both Diwali and Eid play critical yet contrasting roles in shaping India’s multi-layered identity, with Diwali promoting a homogenizing national identity and Eid emphasizing religious distinctiveness.

Abstract

Selectivity is a standard of the level of friendliness of a fishing gear that is reviewed based on the diversity of catches obtained. Nowadays, fishing gear construction and techniques are developed to obtain selective fishing methods. This study compared the selectivity of traps and push nets in glass eel fishing in the Cikaso River, Indonesia. The study was conducted from December 2020 to April 2021. The catch diversity index and relative abundance were used to analyze the selectivity of catch diversity in both fishing gears. Comparative analysis shows that push nets have slightly better selectivity than traps. However, the study's overall results showed a fairly good selectivity of both fishing gears in catching glass eels (Anguilla spp.) as their main catch target.

Abstract

Palm sap, the primary raw material for palm sugar and other derivative products, often faces quality issues due to the presence of solid particles, dirt, and microorganisms that accelerate fermentation and spoilage. This study aimed to design and construct a stainless steel filtration device based on the Buchner method to enhance the cleanliness and quality of palm sap. The filtration system employs a vacuum mechanism to expedite the separation of solid impurities, improving efficiency over conventional gravity methods. Laboratory-scale testing evaluated filtration capacity, clarity, and process time efficiency. Results demonstrated that the device significantly increased sap clarity while reducing filtration time. Additionally, the stainless steel construction proved easy to clean and durable for repeated use. This innovation benefits traditional Minahasa farmers in North Sulawesi, enabling them to produce higher-quality palm sugar. The filtration process effectively reduced dust and water content while increasing sugar concentration to 21.3 Brix without requiring extensive cooking. The use of the Buchner method and SS304 stainless steel construction ensures consistent filtration quality, offering a practical solution to improve palm sap processing and enhance farmers' incomes.
