Determinants and Consequences of Extended Disclosure under Concentrated Ownership Environment: The Indonesian Evidence

This study is aimed at providing evidence in regard with (1) the economic consequences of quality of extended disclosure and (2) the influence of ownership and director char- acteristics on the quality of extended disclosure. Using 260 firm years of the Indonesian firms, this study finds that the increase of disclosure quality is found to have a positive correlation with the increase of share price five (5) days after the announcement date of financial reports and the increase of Return of Assets (ROA). In regard with ownership and director characteristics, this study finds that government ownership and size of board have a positive relationship with disclosure quality; while management and block-holder ownership are not relevant in increasing disclosure quality. It is also found that individual characteristics of director which are independence and financial expertise/background do not have any relationship with the quality of extended disclosure. From the study, it can be concluded that extended disclosure is an effective tool to increase the financial performances of a firm under a concentrated ownership environment such as in Indone- sia. Government and board directors are two players who induce firms to increase trans- parency through voluntarily disclosure

PENANAMAN DISIPLIN PADA ANAK USIA DINI

Early age is the golden age that only occurs once in the development of human life. This period is as well as a critical period in a child’s development. If at this time the child receives less attention,  it is feared that the child can not grow and develop optimally. One of the important things to get attention associated with education given at an early age is giving values of discipline through education in kindergarten. In developing the values   of discipline for early childhood needs to be done with extreme caution. This is because early childhood is children who are in the concrete operational stage of development as proposed by Piaget, while the value of discipline are common abstract concepts, so in this case the children can not necessarily accept what is taught by teachers / parents with abstract nature quickly. For that old man “or†teacher “must be very clever in choosing and determining the method to be used to instill the values of discipline to the child so that the message can be really understood by students for the provision of life in the future There are somes methods to instill the discipline values to the  children that can be offered  in this paper, namely the model of  authoritarian, permissiveness and democracy discipline, or method  of storytelling  or it could be a habituation method. According to the writer, of course each of these methods has its advantages and disadvantages. Therefor teachers or parents in  instilling the discipline values   to the children shall be adjusted situation and condition of the child and understand the theories of child development offered by the expert

ANTISIPASI POTENSI KONFLIK SOSIAL ANTAR PELAJAR

Conflict is motivated by differences in the characteristics of individuals brought in an interaction. These differences are related to the physical characteristics including, intelligence, knowledge, customs, beliefs, and so forth. With individual characteristics in social interaction, conflict is a normal situation in each community. None of the people who have never experienced any conflicts between members or with other community groups, the conflict will only disappear with the loss of the community itself. Results of a conflict are: 1) Increase the solidarity among members of the group (in-group) which is in conflict with the group elsewhere.2) Rift between the warring factions. 3) Personality changes in individuals, 4) Property damage and loss of human lives. 5) The dominance of conquest even one of the parties involved in the conflict.    Attempts to defuse conflicts in achieving stability is called “accommodationâ€.The parties in conflict with each other adjust to the situation by working together. Forms of accommodation are: 1) truce, 2) Abitration, 3) Mediation, 4) Conciliation, 5). Stalemate, and 6) Adjudication. Young people or students have great potential in solving the nation’s problems, particularly issues related to the anticipation of social conflict, although there is no doubt that the problem of the young generation too much. The important thing is to be able to change his awareness of the construction of the object becomes the subject of development and able to anticipate these issues

Interactions of Squid and Small Pelagic Resources in the Alas Strait, Indonesia

Small pelagic and squid fisheries of the Alas Strait in Indonesia are compared, to explore potential interactions between major components caught, which may then be taken into management consideration. The data time series used for analysis were taken from major fishing harbours and landing places, and go back as far as 1970s. The small pelagic fishery in Alas Strait is mainly targeted upon squid (mostly Loligo edulis) by means of ‘jala-oras\u27 (payang-type) fishing, which is also used to catch small pelagic fishes during squid-off season. The small pelagic catches consist primarily of lemuru (Sardinella lemuru), tembang (Sardinella fimbriata), layang scad (Decapterus spp), and kembung (Rastrelliger spp), which are usually taken by various pelagic fishing gears. There was a general increase in the small pelagic catches from around 4,000t in 1976 to nearly 12,000t in 1990, after which a considerable fluctuation occurred, reaching a level of 8,000t in 1999. Squid catches increased steadily from <100t to 1,700t prior to1978 due to “jala-oras” boat motorization, but fluctuated sharply afterward. Another peak catch may be observed to approach 1,900t in 1997. During this period of large fluctuation, again, the landings of small pelagic fishes tend to replace squid position. There is a strong indication of the existence of interaction between squid and small pelagic fisheries. In general the overall small pelagic exhibits a strong linear relationships with a correlation coefficient, r, of 0.5270 (highly significant). More specifically their species components also shows even stronger correlations, with coefficient correlation of 0.5898, 0.6686 and 0.6358 respectively for layang, kembung and lemuru. Interactions of the species group and their substantial implication in fisheries research and management are discussed in this pape

Defining the types of veranda uses in a tropical urban context of Kuala Lumpur

This thesis discussed a research in defining the types of veranda uses for social activities in tropical urban context of Kuala Lumpur. Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur shows low continuity between sites due to the gaps area caused by the abandoned buildings that may give negative impact to the street life. In a relation, the existence of veranda is commonly known within the rural area where it is normally built in traditional Malay houses. However, the adaptation of veranda in urban context is less acknowledged although it is a very effective architectural element that plays many role in social and environmental aspects. Hence, a methodology of identify the veranda typology and relating it to the pedestrian movement pattern of density using scientific analysis of space syntax is carried out. To strengthen the findings, literature review and case studies are done in order to identify the specific veranda typology used in the urban context. The pedestrian movement data is analyzed in order to determine the workability of veranda typology used in tropical urban context. The findings suggest that although veranda is an extension of an architectural feature has much to offer and it able to play a big role in enhancing the social environment in the urban context
