Abstrak: Topeng monyet is a traditional performance in Central and West Java, Indonesia, featuring trained long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) that mimic human activities like riding bicycles, wearing clothes, and shopping. This practice raises concerns regarding animal welfare, zoonotic disease risks, and its implications for sustainable development goals (SDGs). Questionaire survery is carried out by using digital or printed PDF format, face-to-face interview and online form to determine the knowledge of respondents in 4 groups which are the public, government, non-governmental organization (NGO), and expert. A total of 28 respondents are obtained with each group of 7 respondents. The results of this study showed that experts had the total of highest score in animal welfare (3513) and SDGs (1982), while the public has the lowest mark (1421 & 1225) compared to other groups. The total mark for NGO is higher than government in animal welfare (3387 vs 1833) but lower in SDG (1668 vs 1781). Experts consistently showed the highest levels of understanding across various subjects, followed by government and non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and the public. This study concluded that experts had a better understanding, knowledge, levels of awareness and the key highlight the gap of knowledge and awareness between expert and public groups., Topeng monyet adalah pertunjukan tradisional di Jawa Tengah dan Barat, Indonesia, yang menampilkan kera ekor panjang (Macaca fascicularis) terlatih yang meniru aktivitas manusia seperti mengendarai sepeda, mengenakan pakaian, dan berbelanja. Praktik ini menimbulkan kekhawatiran mengenai kesejahteraan hewan, risiko penyakit zoonosis, dan implikasinya terhadap tujuan pembangunan berkelanjutan (SDGs). Survei kuesioner dilakukan dengan menggunakan format PDF digital atau cetak, wawancara tatap muka dan formulir online untuk mengetahui pengetahuan responden dalam 4 kelompok yaitu masyarakat, pemerintah, lembaga swadaya masyarakat (LSM), dan pakar. Sebanyak 28 responden diperoleh dengan masing-masing kelompok berjumlah 7 responden. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pakar mempunyai total nilai tertinggi pada bidang kesejahteraan hewan (3513) dan SDGs (1982), sedangkan masyarakat mempunyai nilai terendah (1421 & 1225) dibandingkan kelompok lainnya. Nilai total LSM lebih tinggi dibandingkan pemerintah dalam kesejahteraan hewan (3387 vs 1833) namun lebih rendah dalam SDG (1668 vs 1781). Para ahli secara konsisten menunjukkan tingkat pemahaman tertinggi dalam berbagai bidang, diikuti oleh pemerintah dan organisasi non-pemerintah (LSM), serta masyarakat. Studi ini menyimpulkan bahwa para ahli memiliki pemahaman, pengetahuan, tingkat kesadaran yang lebih baik dan kuncinya menyoroti kesenjangan pengetahuan dan kesadaran antara kelompok ahli dan masyarakat.

Judul: Evaluasi Kesadaran Kesejahteraan Hewan di antara Penduduk Klang, Malaysia.
Abstrak: Animal welfare is a term that describes the potential measurable quality of live animals at a specific time, making it a scientific concept. The concept of animal welfare continues to evolve with the development of ethics, science, and politics. The Five Freedoms are internationally accepted standards of care that affirm every living being's right to humane treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the animal welfare awareness of Klang residents in Malaysia. A total of 200 samples were collected online using Google form-based questionnaire which was distributed through social media. The results were analyzed in descriptively for analysis ofthe association between demographic variables and the level of awareness about animal welfare the score was used ANOVA test. The result of the study revealedthat the level of animal welfare awareness among the respondents was in a good category. Among the four subgroups being studied, the differences in the level of animal welfare awareness were statistically insignificant. Only among the age and have heard or known animal welfare group, in freedom from hunger and thirst, the seniors (>60) have shown higher scores compared to teenagers and adults as well as those who have heard or known animal welfare have shown higher score compared to those who have not with significant differences among these groups., Kesejahteraan hewan adalah istilah yang menggambarkan potensi kualitas terukur dari hewan hidup pada waktu tertentu, Konsep kesejahteraan hewan terus berkembang seiring dengan perkembangan etika, ilmu pengetahuan, dan politik. Lima Kebebasan adalah standar perawatan yang diterima secara internasional , konsep tersebut menegaskan hak setiap makhluk hidup untuk diperlakukan secara manusiawi. Lima prinsip kebebasan terdiri dari, yaitu, bebas dari rasa lapar dan haus, bebas dari ketidaknyamanan, bebas dari rasa sakit, cedera dan penyakit, bebas dari rasa takut dan tertekan, dan bebas untuk mengekspresikan perilaku alamiahnya. Lima kebebasan memiliki dampak besar pada kesejahteraan hewan. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengevaluasi tingkat kesadaran warga kota Klang Malaysia akan kesejahteraan hewan. Sebanyak 200 sampel dikumpulkan secara online menggunakan formulir Google yang disebarkan melalui social media (Facebook, Instagram). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa secara keseluruhan tingkat kesadaran warga Klang Malaysia terhadap kesejahteraan hewan berada pada kategori baik. Di antara tiga sub kelompok yang dipelajari, perbedaan tingkat kesadaran kesejahteraan hewan secara statistik tidak signifikan. Perbadaan skor yang signifikan hanya terjadi pada pengetahuan kebebasan dari rasa haus dan lapar saja dimana kelompok usia lanjut usia memiliki skor pengetahauan yang lebih tinggi dibanding dengan kelompok umur remaja dan dewasa serta mereka yang pernah mendengar atau mengenal kesadaran kesejahteraan hewan menunjukkan skor yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan mereka yang tidak dengan perbedaan yang signifikan.

Judul: Characterizations of low alloy steel sae 4422  plated with chromic acid (Cro3)
Abstrak: Characterizations of low alloy steel SAE 4422 plated with chromic acid (CrOrO3) was use Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), RD),Energy Dispersive Analysis of X-Ray (EDAX), Hardness Test and Roughness Test. Microstructures analysis exhibits cracks and grain boundaries microcracks as a characteristics of chrome metal found at plating metal. Perlite and Ferrite as grains of steel found at base metal with grain boundaries around it. Phase analysis of plating metal appropriate to chrome metal with lattice constant (a) is 2.559 Å and phase analysis of base metal appropriate to iron ferrite with lattice constant (a) is 3.318 Å. Both plating and base metal have cubic system. Chemical analysis of plating metal at surface section exhibits that cracks area have highest value of carbon element compare with grains and grains boundaries area. While chemical analysis of base metal at cross section exhibits that perlite have highest value of carbon element compare with ferrite and grain boundaries. The hardness value of plating metal at surface section and cross section are 753 and 637 VHN. While, the hardness value of base metal and interface area at cross section are 205 and 373 VHN. The roughness value at measurement points of chrome surface for as received sample are 0.445 μm. Observation used Optical Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy exhibits surface irregularities combine to form surface texture of plating metal at surface section.
