The objective of this paper is to know the opportunities of the application of STP strategy which prioritizes relationship marketing using NICE tactics in Business to Business market in Indonesia. The qualitative study will analyze the library data by referring to the books and other sources that support this issue. Thus this paper is expected to generate the information about the possibility of the using STP strategy, relationship marketing and NICE tactics in service provider business

Comparison of Activity and Inhibitory Mechanism between (+)-Catechin and Water Extract of Gambier (Uncaria Gambir Roxb.) Against Some Bacteria

Gambier (Uncaria gambier Roxb) has been used by many people in Asia as anti-microbial, anti-diarrhea, and agent for the treatment of burns. Gambier is also one component for chewing medicine to strengthen teeth and antimicrobial. This research aims to compare the antibacterial activity as well as the mechanism of inhibition between (+)-catechins and gambier extract, as the basis for choosing a substance to be developed as antimicrobial drug. (+)-Catechin was extracted from gambier, the result of (+)-catechin which obtained through isolation was compared with (+)-catechin standard by using thin layer chromatography. The anti-bacterial activity tests of (+)-catechin and extract of gambier were carried out by using the method of microdilution against some bacteria, namely, Staphylococcus epidermidis, S.aureus, S. mutans, S. viridans and Bacillus subtilis. For the detection of the mechanism of bacterial cellular destruction, the leakage of proteins and nucleic acids was observed by using UV-Visible spectrophotometer. In addition, the leakage of ions Ca2+ and K+ was observed by using Atomic Absorption Spectrophometer (AAS). Meanwhile, the cellular morphological changes was observed by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).Isolation results of (+)-catechin from gambier was obtained the yield 22.55%. The results of antibacterial activity of catechins was obtained minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values against S. epidermidis, S. mutans, and S. viridans was 5.5 mg/ mL, 8 mg/ mL, and 8 mg/ mL, respectively. While against S. aureus and B. subtilis the MIC values were not obtained up to 25 mg/ mL. The MIC of aqueous extract of gambier against the S. epidermidis was 22.5 mg/ mL. The MIC was not obtained against the other four bacteria until the concentration of 25 mg/ mL.The leakage of protein, nucleic acid as well as K+ and Ca2+ ions were observed at 1 MIC and 2 MIC.

Design and Implementation of Substitution Power Supply at Base Transceiver Station (BTS) Using Hybrid Distributed Generator Wind Turbine and Solar Cell Powers

The availability of electric energy source in nature such as wind and solar power have not been explored and used significantly as electric power sources for human need of energy. Base transceiver station (BTS) sets a condition as uninterrupted power supply (UPS), which is currently supplied by the grid (PLN). However, that supplies is guaranteed inconsistent for consumer. Therefore, due to fulfil the need of BTS, the energy can be supplied by a substitution of distributed generator (DG) such as wind turbine and solar cell. This research conducts by designing a hybrid of wind turbine and solar cell energy modules. These modules are able to generate 50 Ampere-hour of electric energy. The result of this research shows that it needs 10.41 and 8 hours to fully charge 50-Ah battery for wind turbine and solar cell modules, respectively. Apparently, it is indicate that the designing of wind turbine and solar cell modules could result 100-Ah energy for 10 hours

Recovery Process and Its Governing Legal Framework for Islamic Banking in Malaysia and Indonesia: A Comparative Study

This paper works towards recovery process of financing facilities and its governing legal framework for Islamic banking by mean of perspectival comparative of two different countries which are Malaysia and Indonesia. The recovery process under the Islamic banking of both states quite similar to each other. However, their regulatory authority governing the Islamic banking as well as recovery process have some differences specifically concerning foreclosure mechanisms and issue on ‘choice-of-forums’. Moreover, whilst litigation process of the recovery in Malaysia and Indonesia are resolved by civil court and religion court respectively, the Shariah Advisory Council (SAC) of BNM shall be chief reference either by the civil court or arbitration in resolving unsettlement of arrears of financing facility but then not for the fatwa of National Shari’ah Board-Indonesia Ulema Council (DSN-MUI) which is neither legally binding before the religion court nor arbitral practice. This paper finds the roots of end-to-end recovery process between Malaysian and Indonesian Islamic Banking system to gain full recognition of the enactment of the recovery

Integration of DC Households System Generated by Single-Phase Rooftop PVs into Unbalanced Three-Phase Residential Feeder

This paper mitigates the integration of DC households that generated by single-phase photovoltaic (PV) into the unbalanced three-phase residential feeder. As solar energy has been noticed producing DC power, then it would be reliable to put the households loads into usable DC. The integration of grid-connected single-phase rooftop PVs into the DC distribution system would involve fewer components, which eventually reduce the cost of the system. The proposed design of the DC distribution system consists of single-phase rooftop PV with the rating of 1-5kW, DC-DC converter as the most important device to interface with the grid and battery storage, and also the rectifier for DC operated appliances and last but not least, households’ DC usable loads. As the design simulated in Matlab platform, the results indicate that at day times, as PV penetrated over than 50%, it reduced the imbalanced impact of the three-phase feeder, thus voltage profile still within its standard limit. Rectifiers also improved its efficiency. The households’ appliances were divided into high power 380V and low power 24Vand categorized as non-controllable, permanent, programmable, and rechargeable loads presented their efficiency and the energy consumption within 24 hours. The DC households successfully improved the consumption of electric energy

Application of RBV Theory and McKinsey 7’S Model on Start-up Company

Human resources at a start-up company should have a long experience in tire manufacturing industry which is one of the competitive advantages possessed by the company that can be used in competing in accordance with the theory of resources based view (RBV).

The Development of Health Tourism Industries in Malaysia

Health tourism industry in Malaysia was introduced in 1998. The industry is growing rapidly so it has generated a profit of RM730 million in 2014 and the number of tourists as many as 790,000 people. Currently, Malaysia has become one of the best countries in the Asia Pacific region in the health tourism industry so it can compete with developed countries such as US, UK, Costa Rica, Japan, Brazil and Singapore. There are several factors that affect the progress of health tourism industries in Malaysia for examples, all doctors including health professionals have competent international level, high-tech medical equipment, medical costs are very affordable, all health workers in Malaysia can communicate in English effectively and hospitals in Malaysia has achieved the best quality of the MS ISO 9002, Malaysian Society for Quality of Health (MSQH) and the Joint Commission International (JCI). However, the progress of the health tourism industry in Malaysia is not only caused by the availability of hospital facilities, advanced health technologies and expertise of the doctor. Other aspects also have an important role, although not directly related to health care, for example, the role of the health law to establish standards of quality health services so that doctors can work professionally, carefully, cautiously and not negligent in performing his duties. Malaysia’s one of the countries where the number of medical negligence slightly compared with other countries such as UK and US. This could increase the confident of international patients who will be treated to various hospitals in Malaysia and automatically Malaysia's reputation in the health tourism industries will getting better. When a case of medical negligence in Malaysia cannot be controlled, then this condition will damage the country's reputation, doctors, hospitals and will affect the confidence of foreign tourists who will perform the treatment in Malaysia
