Adapting Hume's Moral Theory Into an Educational Game as a Tool for JPJ Malaysia Static Test

The focus of this project is to design and develop a JPJ Malaysia Static Test educational game prototype. The development of JPJ Malaysia Static Test educational game prototype brings a gaming technology in static test to make more fun and interesting. From the feeling of fun, they can learn something, memorized and use it in the real life. A current static test only make the user memorized the answer without know and understand the true purposes of the question. Therefore, in real life, they will not behave as expected due to behaviour and moral lacking. The prototype will be developing using multiple choice questions integrated with 3D gaming environment to make it like real environment. The purpose of this prototype is to enhance current static test. At the end of this research, a conclusion on limitations and future work will be discussed

RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF SYNTHESIZED SURFACTANTS

Surfactants are surface-active substances of complex lipids. In nature, surfactants are substances consisting of lipoprotein that is secreted by the alveolar cells of the lung and serves to maintain the stability of pulmonary tissue by reducing the surface tension of fluids that coat the lung [1]. From other point of view, surfactants act as 'soap'. It has the ability to reduce the surface tension of a fluid that is in contact with a solid wall by breakingthe strong adhesive forces between the fluid and the wall. A synthesized surfactant can be produced by the reaction of a fatty acid and a base. Basically, the project is divided into 2 major phases: 1. Synthesizing a surfactant 2. Characterizing the Rheological Properties of The Synthesized Surfactants For the first phase, fatty acids will be extracted from palm oil and purified. The purification involved 4 steps: bleachingpalm oil color, deodorization, hydrolysis, and phase separation. Then, the fatty acidsproduced from the purification of palm oil process will be reacted with a strong base (potassium hydroxide) in saponification process to form a surfactant. In the second phase, the rheological properties of the synthesized surfactant were evaluated. The study of rheological properties of surfactant will comprised boiling point determination, conductivity of surfactant at different concentrations, and surfactant viscosity over time for various temperature, and phase separation. A critical concentration dependency is demonstratedby the surfactant on the properties investigated

The Role of Surakarta City Government in Providing Legal Aid for People with Disabilities in Criminal Cases

Equality before the law is a symbol of justice in law enforcement, but in its implementation often there is legal discrimination against one group of people namely the disabled. Imperfections of persons with disabilities should not be a cause of loss of their dignity. But back in reality, people with disabilities often become vulnerable and marginalized people in social life. Therefore, it is necessary to have a law or regulation that contains the protection of the rights of the disabled group so that they do not experience discrimination and are guaranteed their rights as citizens like the others. In addition to the laws that govern, legal assistance is also needed from the government and legal aid institutions to provide assistance when they (the disabled) face the law. The existence of Law No. 16 of 2011 concerning Legal Aid has shown the government's commitment in providing equal justice before the law. The implementation of providing legal aid services contained in the Legal Aid Act is not carried out directly by the government, but by the Legal Aid Institute (LBH) which is a social organization (Ormas).Keywords: human rights; legal aid; people with disabilities

Groundwater quality in coastal area: A case study in Parangtritis Village, Bantul, Yogyakarta, Indonesia

Groundwater in coastal areas is one of the natural resources that is vulnerable to quality degradation due to population activities in coastal areas. This is also the case in Parangtritis Village, a coastal area with various potential regions for the population's welfare, ranging from tourism to agriculture, animal husbandry, and fisheries. Therefore, this study explores groundwater quality in Parangtritis Village, Kretek District, Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta. Groundwater quality data was collected through field surveys based on land use, with water quality parameters including odor, color, nitrate, nitrite, and E. coli. The Minister of Health Regulation Document Number 32 of 2017 was adopted as a benchmark for groundwater quality in the research area. Further, by using the gathered data, the groundwater quality was classified based on limiting parameters. Groundwater quality is distributed based on limiting parameters such as odor, color, nitrite, and E. coli bacteria. Odor and color limitations are found in agricultural areas, tourism areas, and fish farms. Nitrite limitations are found in residential and livestock areas. E. coli bacteria limitations are found in all land use areas

Factors influence the awareness of cash waqf among UniSHAMS staffs

Cash waqf is one of the instruments of charitable giving in Islamic religious and has been perceived as a method for waqf practice. This study examines the factors that influence the awareness of cash waqf by measuring the attitude, perceived behavioural control, subjective norms and promotion. Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) (Azjen 1991) was used as a basis for this study. The study focuses on the awareness on cash waqf among UniSHAMS staff. The study employed a quantitative type of research using questionnaires and the sample comprised of 201 respondents. The study found three determinants to be significant in influencing the awareness of cash waqf namely attitude, subjective norms and promotion. Therefore, this study provides great contributions, implications and is recommended for waqf institutions on how to increase the level of awareness of cash waqf
