Toll Exit Length Determination Toward Arterial Road via Regression, SEM PLS4, and VISSIM: -

The Jakarta-Cikampek (Japek) and Jakarta Outer Ring Road (JORR) toll road exits, which are connected to secondary arterial roads, consistently experience traffic congestion during peak hours. The purpose of this research on road performance at these intersections to develop a model that determines the optimal length of exit ramps on toll roads connected to secondary arterial roads. This research includes traffic data analysis, vehicle speed measurements, and road geometry evaluation at various exit locations. Statistical methods, such as Multiple Regression, SEM, PLS4, and VISSIM PTV Simulation, are applied to examine and construct models linking exit toll ramp configurations to the Performance of adjacent arterial roads. The research is: Higher toll exit volumes (X1.1) are hampered by shorter exit queues (Y1). Longer exits (X3.2) result in shorter queues at exits (Y1). Conversely, longer toll exits (X3.2) result in longer queues on secondary arterial roads (Y2). Longer queues at exits (Y1) are associated with shorter queues on secondary arterial roads (Y2). Conclusion and Future Research Based on these findings, a mathematical model is developed to guide the Design of efficient and safe exits. This approach is designed to enhance service quality on toll road networks and improve travel safety. The key findings of this study, acknowledging its limitations, lay the groundwork for future investigations and for advancing more effective traffic management approaches at toll exits and adjacent arterial road intersections.

The Indonesian Government's Policy Towards Apple Which Caused The Delay In The Iphone 16's Entry In Indonesia

This study examines the delay in the official launch of the iPhone 16 in Indonesia due to Apple’s failure to meet the Domestic Component Level (TKDN) requirement set by the Indonesian government. Using a qualitative approach based on secondary data such as official regulations, news articles, and previous studies, this research analyzes how public policy affects multinational companies and domestic market dynamics. Findings reveal that Apple’s incomplete investment realization—only IDR 1.48 trillion of the IDR 1.71 trillion commitment—led to the suspension of TKDN certification and distribution permits. This delay has caused consumer dissatisfaction, encouraged the growth of the grey market, and reduced state tax revenues. From a theoretical standpoint, the study integrates Public Policy Theory, Economic Protectionism Theory, and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Theory to explain the interplay between government regulations, corporate adaptation, and market outcomes. The study concludes that while TKDN policies aim to strengthen domestic industry and attract investment, excessive rigidity can hinder technology access and business growth. Therefore, future policies should balance national interests with global innovation to create a more adaptive and collaborative regulatory environment

Edukasi berbasis demonstrasi video terhadap keterampilan ibu dalam penanganan kegawatdaruratan tersedak anak usia 0-5 tahun

Tersedak merupakan salah satu kondisi kegawatdaruratan yang sering terjadi pada anak usia 0–5 tahun dan berpotensi menimbulkan dampak fatal apabila tidak ditangani secara cepat dan tepat. Sebagian besar kejadian tersedak terjadi di lingkungan rumah, sehingga ibu sebagai pengasuh utama memiliki peran penting dalam memberikan pertolongan pertama. Namun, keterbatasan pengetahuan dan keterampilan ibu sering menjadi faktor keterlambatan penanganan. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan ibu dalam penanganan kegawatdaruratan tersedak pada anak usia 0–5 tahun melalui edukasi berbasis demonstrasi video. Kegiatan dilaksanakan di Posyandu Nusa Indah VII wilayah kerja Puskesmas Pamulang pada bulan Oktober 2025 dengan melibatkan 20 ibu yang memiliki anak balita. Metode pelaksanaan meliputi pengukuran pengetahuan awal (pretest), pemberian edukasi melalui pemutaran video demonstrasi, penjelasan materi secara interaktif, demonstrasi langsung oleh tim pengabdi, praktik peserta, serta evaluasi akhir (posttest) dan observasi keterampilan. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan ibu secara deskriptif setelah intervensi edukasi. Mayoritas peserta mampu menjelaskan dan mempraktikkan teknik back blow dan chest thrust pada bayi serta abdominal thrust pada anak dengan urutan yang benar. Edukasi berbasis demonstrasi video dinilai efektif dan mudah diterapkan dalam konteks posyandu serta berpotensi untuk direplikasi secara berkelanjutan pada komunitas dengan karakteristik serupa guna meningkatkan kesiapsiagaan keluarga dalam menghadapi kegawatdaruratan tersedak pada anak

Dynamic Simulation of Wind Turbine Power Generation Using Modified P&O-ANFIS Based MPPT Control

This paper presents the modeling, simulation, and performance analysis of a smart Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) control system integrated with a DC–DC converter for Wind Turbine (WT) power generation. Existing research remains limited in addressing hybrid MPPT controllers that merge conventional and intelligent techniques, are validated under varying wind and load conditions, and are integrated with wide-range high-voltage DC–DC converters with thorough dynamic performance assessment. The proposed intelligent MPPT scheme combines the conventional Perturb and Observe (P&O) algorithm with an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) to enhance accuracy and dynamic response in extracting the maximum available power under varying wind and load conditions. The hybrid P&O–ANFIS-based controller adaptively adjusts the converter’s duty cycle to ensure optimal energy harvesting and efficient power transfer to the load. A boost converter is employed to step up the WT output voltage from 150 V to a range of 230–600 V.  Simulation results confirm that the modified P&O–ANFIS MPPT controller achieves superior tracking capability, exhibiting reduced steady-state oscillations and improved transient response compared to conventional MPPT methods. Moreover, the system demonstrates stable voltage regulation and reliable power continuity to the load. The overall average efficiency achieved by the proposed controller is approximately 90%, the average rise time, settling time and steady state time of the system are 0.023 s, 0.14 s, and 0.196 s, respectively. The findings emphasize the importance of adaptive intelligent control in optimizing and improving the overall performance of modern WT-based power generation system

The empty ballot phenomenon in regional head elections from the perspective of the theory of communicative action

The phenomenon of single-candidate pairs and the presence of empty boxes in Regional Head Elections (Pilkada) pose political communication challenges for election organizers in building public understanding. The 2024 Gresik Regency Election, which was contested by only one candidate pair and resulted in 40.28% of the votes going to blank ballots, serves as the empirical context for this research. This research aims to analyze the political communication strategies of the Gresik District General Election Commission (KPU) in socializing the blank ballot using Jürgen Habermas's theory of communicative action. The research uses a qualitative approach with an instrumental case study design, employing interviews, observations, and documentation. The research findings indicate that the KPU's communication strategy tends to be dominated by instrumental rationality oriented toward procedural and regulatory compliance. The information has been factually presented, claims of truth and neutrality have been maintained, and claims of accuracy have been made. However, the limitations of public dialog have resulted in claims of honesty and comprehensibility not being optimally fulfilled. As a result, empty boxes are more often interpreted as an expression of political protest. The novelty of this research lies in the analysis of the General Election Commission (KPU) as a communicative actor that reveals the dominance of instrumental rationality in the socialization of blank ballots in single-candidate regional elections

TAX POLICY REFORMS AND MARKET OPTIMISM : EVIDENCE OF MOMENTUM IN THE PROPERTY SECTOR

AbstractThis study aims to analyze the influence of profitability, liquidity, and dividends on the stock prices of property sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2021-2024 period. The focus of this study is to understand how the capital market responds to corporate financial signals, in signaling theory, which emphasizes that each piece of financial information can influence investor perceptions differently. The method used is quantitative, utilizing secondary data in the form of annual financial reports of property companies for 2021–2024. The data were analyzed using panel data regression processed using EViews 12 software to test the effect of each variable on stock prices. The results show that profitability and dividends have a significant negative effect on stock prices, while liquidity does not show a significant effect. Practically, these results suggest that companies need to carefully manage the use of profits to avoid the perception of reduced growth opportunities. Future research is recommended to add other fundamental variables, extend the observation period, and expand the sample size to make the results more comprehensive and representative

Implementation Of Information System In The Local Government Of Asrikaton Village, Malang Regency

Public service is an activity in order to meet the needs of services in accordance with laws and regulations to the community in a state area, services for goods, services, and/or administrative services provided by public service providers, for example, state organizing institutions, independent institutions, corporations formed under the law for public service activities and other legal entities formed solely for public service activities. As explained earlier, in carrying out public services, it must be in accordance with the laws and regulations on public services, for example in Ri Law No. 25 of 2009 which is a law that regulates the principles of good government in achieving the effectiveness of government functions itself and in RI Law No. 14 of 2008 in this law discusses public information disclosure or openness of state administration to the public in order to  can access information effectively, efficiently, responsively, transparently and accountably. Therefore, there is a need for a development in the field of Information Technology (IT) in the form of a Site or Website in an agency or for example at the Asrikaton village office in Malang regency. The research method used in the creation of this journal uses descriptive research methods and field study methods by conducting a survey directly to the location of the Asikaton village office to obtain information about the management information system related to public services in the village office. In conducting this research, we found several problems in the management information system, especially in public services, namely the lack of optimal services in the field of Information Technology (IT) at the Asrikaton village office. So we conclude that in order for transparency, effectiveness and accountability that can facilitate and provide satisfaction to the community in the Asrikaton village office, there needs to be employees or village officials who are good at Information Technology (IT) which can later maximize technology-based public services and can realize the bureaucratic principle of good governance
