Authors: Siwi Tyas Kartika , Widanti Agnes , Hartanto Hartanto
Published: November 2019

All women had equal rights to reproductive health, no exception for commercial sex workers (PSK), because PSK was a very risky job for various diseases, among others, gonorrhea, herpes, fungal infections, syphilis, vaginitis, ulcers, sex lice, and HIV/AIDS. However, in reality, not all PSKs got their rights to reproductive health. The Government had issued a regulation related to reproductive rights, namely Government Regulation Nr. 61 of 2014 on Reproductive Health. This research used the socio-legal approach with the analytical- descriptive specification. The primary data were obtained from interviews with the Head of Public Health Center (Puskesmas) of Gedongtengen, doctors, midwives, coordinator of commercial sex workers association, AIDS Prevention Commission, the Head of Infectious Disease Control Section of the Health Office of Yogyakarta City, hotel owners and commercial sex workers (PSK). Secondary data were obtained from books and legal materials having relations with the research. The data gathered were then qualitatively analyzed.The results of the research at Puskesmas of Gedongtengen showed that PSK had obtained legal protection by the contents of articles of the prevailing legislation and the Minister of Health’s regulation. Puskesmas of Gedongtengen had reproductive health services programs such as clinical sexual services of sexually transmitted infections (STI) and voluntary counseling and testing (VCT). If by an examination a PSK was found HIV/AIDS positive, she would be referred to a hospital having facilities by her needs. On the one hand, the supporting factors of the implementation of legal protection to commercial sex workers regarding reproductive health included affordable costs of the Puskesmas, availability of competent health personnel, adequate facilities, and infrastructure, cross-sectoral cooperation, PSK involvement in the services provided. On the other hand, the inhibiting factors were the absence of specific legislative regulations on PSK, low-level education that led to lack of health examination awareness, a lot of the customers that refused to use condoms and the insufficient availability of skilled health personnel.

Authors: Mohd Suffian Mohd Taufik , Shamsudin Siti Marlia , Mohd Sanusi Zuraidah , Hermawan Ancella Anitawati
Published: November 2019

In many countries, most of the government relies heavily on tax revenue to finance the government expenditures. In Malaysia, 78.8% of the source of revenue is from tax revenue and mainly contributed by the corporate income tax. The past literature has documented that good corporate governance could increase the firm's performances as well as tax compliance. Malaysia has published its own code of corporate governance in March 2000 and was revised in 2007, 2011 and 2012. Recently, in April 2016, the Security Commission released the recommended MCCG 2016. Thus, judging from the importance of maintaining tax collection, this paper aims to examine the importance of corporate governance in ensuring tax compliance among public listed companies in Malaysia. This study finds that corporate governance does influence tax compliance and multiple directorships is the most significant in influencing tax compliance.

Authors: Che Mohd Salleh Marhanum , Megat Laksana Nan Noorhidayu
Published: November 2019

This study is conducted to; first, investigate the level of awareness among flood victims in Malaysia towards takaful policy. Second, to examine differences of demographic background (age, marital status, occupation, education background, and income level) among the victims towards awareness on the takaful. Overall, a total of 536 flood victims located at east-coast area of Malaysia have participated in the survey. Based on descriptive and crosstabulation analyses, majority of the victims were uncertain about the takaful. In terms of background differences, the younger generation were more aware compared to the elders, single victims were more aware than the married, and those who were in high level of education (diploma, degree, and phd holders) were more aware on the existence of takaful. and the needs to have takaful protection. The findings of this study provide important suggestion to offer an affordable micro-takaful policy for future financial protection for the lower income and most vulnerable flood victims in the country. On top of that, various efforts should be done to increase the level of awareness among the Malaysian on the importance of participating in the takaful policy.

Authors: MUSALLAM SAMI RM , Pei Lin Coral Choo
Published: November 2019

This research analyzes the relationship of ownership structures with dividend policy using a sample of 43 plantation companies listed on Bursa Malaysia from 2013 to 2015. The results of Ordinary Least Square (OLS) find that foreign ownership has a positive and significant influence on dividend policy while state ownership has a negative and significant influence on dividend policy. Furthermore, it also finds that Government Linked Investment Companies (GLICs) ownership has insignificant influence on dividend policy. This study provides evidence to policymakers of government through their GLICs and state in selecting and deciding their dividend policies. Furthermore, it also provides evidence to shareholders and managers that companies with foreign ownership pay higher dividends while companies with state ownership pay lower dividends. This study is the first study that contributes to the finance and corporate governance literature at examining the relationship between GLICs as whole and foreign ownerships with dividend policy in Malaysia.

Published: November 2019

This study seeks to add to understanding of the concept and attributes of audit quality from the perspective of those responsible for delivery audit services, the auditors, as a key constituent group in the auditing system. The study surveyed two groups of external auditors (group 1- audit partners and managerial level and, group 2 - senior auditors and junior auditors), as a basis to compare their perceptions on important of auditors and audit process attributes in achieving audit quality in practice. The study was conducted in the form of a survey, with data being gathered via questionnaire. Returned surveys from external auditors yielded a 37% response rate. Overall, top 5 highest rated attributes of audit quality reported to be most important in determining audit quality are: compliance with the International Standard Quality Control (ISCQ) 1, obtaining credible and sufficient audit evidence, technical expertise of audit team, audit work meeting the audit firms’ quality standards, and competency of the audit team. Further analysis shows that the two groups of respondents have differential views on attributes of audit quality in practice. Group 1 perceived attributes of audit quality are related to auditor’s assessment of risk and internal quality review procedures within the audit firm. In comparison, group 2 perceived auditors’ competency and compliance with relevant standards as indicators of audit quality. This study suggests differences in underlying view about attributes audit quality in practice by the two groups of auditors. Public accounting firms might be interested to understand such underlying differences so that efforts in improving audit quality in practice would be focusing on the key attributes that perceived to be important on delivery high-quality audit services. This study is significant by extending the literature on audit quality and also provides useful input to public accounting firms in improving audit quality in practice.

Социальная экология – это знание, которое сочетает в себе естественнонаучный и гуманитарный профили. Естественнонаучная составляющая содержит в себе анализ рисков и оценку экологических ущербов (инструменты рационального природопользования). «Анализ риска» определяется как меж- и многодисциплинарная наука и практическая деятельность, изучающая вероятности рисков для личности, общества, государства и частных предприятий на местном, региональном, национальном или глобальном уровнях. В качестве примера рассматривается вероятностная модель риска недостижения климаксового состояния экосистемой. Экологический ущерб – это уменьшение полезности окружающей среды вследствие её загрязнения или иного изменения. В качестве примера рассматриваются оценки рыбохозяйственного ущерба пресноводным экосистемам в результате антропогенных воздействий.

Role of Water Resources in Central Asia
Authors: Zhiltsov S. S. , Zonn I. S.
Published: November 2019

Central Asia is the territory connecting Europe, Near East, South and East Asia. This is a bridge between East and West, the cross-road of civilizations, one of the key geopolitical regions that has acquired special importance after breakup of the Soviet Union. However, this is also the unstable region, a tough player threatening world peace. Central Asia locates in complicated natural and climatic conditions where the key and vital natural resource is water which requires, on the one hand, its saving and, on the other, the permanent search for possibilities to increase its reserves.This is the region with the world’s highest rate of population growth — to 2.0 % per annum. At present the population of Central Asia without Afghanistan is 70.6 million and with Afghanistan 105.2 million.The uneven distribution of water resources over the territory and their insufficiency, the constantly growing water consumption lead to the competitive demand for water at the national and regional levels. The water deficit and deterioration of water quality are the serious challenges which have been faced by many regional countries. The key issue determining the internal stability in the region was and still remains the water-energy balance.

Increasing collaboration between health professionals: Clues and challenges
Authors: Aguirre Duarte Nelson Alberto
Published: November 2019

Background: Scholars have recently started to pay more attention in the potential of the inter-professional relationship between general practitioners and specialists to improve outcomes, through consideration given to the effect on prescribing practices. However, more empirical research is needed.

Objective: To explore inter-professional network factors that may explain the effects on General Practitioners prescription behaviours.
Methods: A qualitative study was conducted in an integrated diabetes care program. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews from 16 health practices and a hospital diabetes clinic, using a convenience sample of general practitioners, practice nurses, diabetes nurse specialists, and endocrinologists. A conceptual mapping was performed to identify factors underlying networks and effects on patient outcomes.
Results: Four themes with their concepts emerged from the conceptual map. These demonstrated the need for building effective communication channels to share experience and knowledge timely in diabetes care. Communication, collaboration, and coordination are critical factors to influence prescription behaviours within primary and secondary care.
Conclusions: Conceptual mapping allowed an understanding of factors that might explain how links between health professionals can improve patient outcomes at the primary and secondary care interface.
Second toe-to-hand transfer. A surgical option for amputations in the hand
Authors: Vergara Amador Enrique
Published: November 2019

Background: The toe to hand transplantation is a method of reconstruction on the unique or multiple amputations of the fingers. It can be used the whole toe or with certain modifications as a wrap-around flap from the big toe or fingertip. It is a widely accepted option for the thumb.
Methods: It is a series of patients with amputation of one or more fingers of the hand were operated with second toe-to-hand transplantation. The survival was evaluated, and the sensory recovery by 2-point discrimination.
Results: We practiced 12 transplants, 8 thumb, and 4 in other fingers. Ten were adults and 2 children. All transplants survived. Two patients required tenolysis flexor. The sensibility was recovered with good 2-point discrimination of 8 mm.
Discussion: In the more proximal finger amputations, a second toe is the most appropriate, with lower morbidity of the donor site. The rates of success are  between 95 to 100%. We had a success rate of 100%. The resulting defect is in the foot is minimum when the second toe was used. The decision to use one of these techniques depends on the decision and transplant surgeon training. We always used the second toe for transfers to the hand, considering that it will be thinner than the original thumb; our patients had no complaint about the appearance.
Conclusion: Toe-to-hand transplantation is a good technique, providing a very good aesthetic appearance and allowing the recovery of sensitivity. The defect that is created in the foot does not produce significant aesthetic and functional alterations

Hacia dónde vamos en seguridad y calidad de la atención obstétrica en Colombia?
Authors: Ortíz Edgar Iván , Ludmir Jack
Published: November 2019

A pesar de los grandes logros en los indicadores en el acceso al cuidado prenatal y la atención del parto con personal calificado en Latinoamérica, la quinta meta acordada en los objetivos del milenio, (ODM 5) de reducir la mortalidad materna en un 75% para el año 2015 no se hizo realidad. En parte, esto puede explicarse porque los logros en cobertura no se traducen  en una atención obstétrica segura y de calidad. La Morbilidad Materna Extrema (MME) definida como una complicación grave que ocurre durante el embarazo, parto y puerperio que pone en riesgo la vida de la mujer, es un evento anticipatorio a la muerte. Su vigilancia permite la identificación de acciones que evitan la muerte materna y por lo tanto es reconocida  como un trazador de calidad; Colombia con el establecimiento de la vigilancia de la morbilidad materna extrema (MME) a nivel nacional tiene la oportunidad de constituirse en un país  modelo de cómo mejorar la atención obstétrica. Esto implica mejorar las competencias de los recursos humanos en el análisis de los casos, en la adecuada interpretación de los indicadores que se generan a partir de su vigilancia y en la elaboración e implementación de planes de mejora acordes a las necesidades de las instituciones involucradas en la atención obstétrica, centrado en la calidad y la seguridad de la atención.

Kinetic model for FAME production using inmobilized Lipase in a solvent- free system
Authors: Castro Posada John Henry , Ruíz Colorado Angela Adriana
Published: November 2019

A kinetic model was developed to describe FAME production from refined, bleached and deodorized palm oil (RBDPO) in a solvent-free system, using Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase, in free and immobilized form. The limitations of substrate mass transfer, enzymatic inhibition and discontinuous feeding of alcohol were considered. The kinetic model for the enzyme in free and immobilized form was validated experimentally, under the same process conditions (34°C, 0.145mg protein/g oil, 4.1:1 Methanol: Oil molar ratio). The kinetic model predicted a FAME content of 73.47 wt % at 9 hours, with a relative error of 0.140% using the enzyme in free form, while the FAME content predicted by the kinetic model was 47.04 wt % at 9 hours with a relative error of 0.026 using the enzyme in immobilized form. The decrease in the percentage of esters using the enzyme in immobilized form was attributed to limitations by external mass transfer.
Intervensi Negara Melalui Lembaga Hisbah Untuk Keseimbangan Harga Dalam Perspektif Hukum Ekonomi Syariah

Abstract

Indonesia is a country where the majority of the population is Muslim, Islam in intervention activities allows state interference in economic activities. Because, if economic activities only rely on market mechanisms, it can be a fatal risk for general problems. The weakness of the market mechanism is that the market is always in favor of the strong, both in terms of capital, science, technology, and management. In addition, there is interference from the government. The government intervention of the Republic of Indonesia in handling current economic problems is one of them through Law No. 39 of 2007 concerning customs. Illegal export and import goods can damage the economic system because it disrupts the market balance. So the definition of market intervention is government interference in regulating the market economy, which aims to maintain price stability. The main purpose is to control the developing price situation, whether it is normal or there is a price surge, is it due to scarcity of goods or other factors that are not fair. From this inspection, the monitoring team gets objective data that can be followed up in response.
Patrones de supervivencia de Pinus cembroides Zucc. en una comunidad montañosa del NE de México
Authors: García Jaime F.
Published: November 2019

Se espera que los efectos del calentamiento global incrementen fenómenos meteorológicos extremos como sequías y lluvias torrenciales, estableciendo la necesidad de integrar sus consecuencias al manejo de ecosistemas. La supervivencia de plántulas de Pinus cembroides en una comunidad montañosa del noreste de México, debido a: (1) la pendiente del suelo, (2) las plantas nodrizas, (3) el hábitat y (4) la variación interanual en lluvias, fue examinada y se probaron hipótesis para identificar patrones de supervivencia de plántulas. Los resultados indican: (i) mayor supervivencia de plántulas en sitios con pendientes >30°, (ii) la asociación nodriza-protegida incrementó la supervivencia de plantas, (iii) entre hábitats la supervivencia fue mayor en vegetación densa y (iv) mayor supervivencia de plántula en vegetación densa en el año húmedo. Los manejadores deberán considerar acciones que promuevan el reclutamiento de plantas a través de la conservación de sitios ideales para el establecimiento de plantas.
Re-Marking the Place of Mark
Authors: Zutter Elizabeth
Published: November 2019

Burton Mack's A Myth of Innocence presents a novel approach to the study of early Christianity. Scholars have always imagined that the foundational beginnings of Christianity could be traced back to the historical man named Jesus. The rise of Christianity has been variously attributed to Jesus' charisma or personality, to some surprising activity he did or words that he spoke, or to something remarkable about his death. Although a consensus as to what the unique originary events must have looked like has never been reached, scholars continue to assume its existence is the only thing that can account for the beginnings of Christianity and its myths of divine events. As a historian, Mack finds the insistence upon a singular origin to be strange. New Testament scholarship over the past two centuries has focused on two related topics, the historical Jesus and the earliest Christology, by attempting to work backwards in time through the gospel mythologies. Mack, however, proposes that since the gospels are mythical stories, the foundations of Christianity should be located with the composition of the gospel stories.
Coping with Trauma through Social Remembrance
Authors: Benham Rennick Joanne
Published: November 2019

In this article, I examine “spiritual remembrance” as it is enacted by three members of the Canadian Vietnam Veterans Memorial Association (CVVMA) in Windsor, Ontario as a means of coming to terms with traumatic experiences from the Vietnam War. Spiritual remembrance is a term I use to describe a fusion of one’s religious heritage and one’s private understanding and expression of spirituality as it occurs in the context of memorialisation. It can occur when a group with a shared memory of trauma or horror memorialises their experiences according to what they hold as the deepest meanings of life. In this article, I present the methodology I used to collect the data, provide definitions for the terminology being used, offer a context for the theory, give some examples of spiritual remembrance as it is enacted by the veterans and finally, offer some conclusions regarding the utility of the theory.
Lost in Translation
Authors: Cation Anne Frances
Published: November 2019

While reading the Hebrew Bible, it is possible for modern readers to misunderstand the original Hebrew meanings of the English translations. Common words such as ‘heart’, ‘mind’, ‘soul’ (נפש) and ‘spirit’ (רוח) are often misinterpreted to have English connotations that were not used in the Hebrew Bible. For instance, the biblical Hebrew words (לבב ,לב and לבח), frequently translated as ‘heart’ had connotations that could be argued to correspond more accurately to the English definition of the word ‘mind.’ Conversely, the biblical Hebrew word (לב or לב), generally interpreted as ‘mind,’ is perhaps better understood in relation to the modern understanding of the heart as one's emotional centre. Also, as opposed to the non-physical modern notion of an immortal ‘soul’, biblical authors and their intended audiences understood it in relation to the physical. Furthermore, ‘spirit’ meant the energy and character of oneself and had divine connotations as associated with the breath or divine essence of YHWH. Therefore, in order to appropriately understand the Hebrew Bible, the fallibility of translation must be recognized.

Enacting Orthodoxy in Walter Martin's The Kingdom of the Cults
Authors: Schneider Nathan
Published: November 2019

Compared to the bourgeoning discussions about heresiology in antiquity, especially connected to broader ones about constructions of orthodoxy, very much less has been said about more contemporary examples of this tradition, which, assuredly, is alive and well. Particularly in evangelical Christian circles, there are numerous books available that list, describe, and evaluate the ever-expanding choices people have in the marketplace of religious ideas. Meanwhile, scholars of antiquity have come to realize the significance of this literary genre in the “production” of difference among communities as well as, in certain circumstances, of what came to be called orthodoxies.
Pentecostalism in the Modern World
Authors: Stewart Adam
Published: November 2019

Some scholars claim that in the new century Pentecostalism will adapt to modernity thereby continuing its growth across many cultures and societies. By comparing the appeal of Pentecostalism in its original manifestation during the early nineteenth century in America with the appeal of its most vibrant contemporary expression in Latin America, one can ask whether Pentecostalism has widened its appeal to include a Postindustrial audience. It is concluded that Pentecostalism will not adapt to modernity, because it remains a movement against modernity. Pentecostalism’s appeal lies in its ability to provide a theodicy utilized by those who oppose the infringement of modern ideology upon their own ways of life, namely the working poor and conservative traditionalists.
Recovering the Progressive Spirit of Islam
Authors: Cervantes-Altamiro Erendira
Published: November 2019

This paper analyses Islamic Feminism as a progressive movement that has found legitimacy through the practice of Ijthad and has allowed feminist Muslims to reinterpret the sacred texts while extracting the patriarchal interpretations behind them. Although the movement has been very criticized, Islamic Feminism has problematized the situation of women in Islam and has proposed a new way to create a connection with the scriptures.
Sol Jel Yöntemiyle Elde Edilen ZnO Filminin Yapısal, Morfolojik ve Optik Özelliklerine Erbiyum Katkısının Etkisi
Authors: İLGÜ BÜYÜK Gonca , ILICAN Saliha
Published: November 2019

Katkısız ve Erbiyum (Er) katkılı çinko oksit (ZnO)
filmleri sol jel spin kaplama yöntemi ile p-Si alttaşlar üzerine elde
edilmiştir. ZnO filminin yapısal, morfolojik ve optik özellikleri üzerine Er
katkısının etkisi sırasıyla, X-ışını kırınım cihazı, taramalı elektron
mikroskobu (SEM) ve UV-vis spektrofotometresi kullanılarak araştırılmıştır.
X-ışınları kırınımı (XRD) spektrumlarından, bütün filmlerin hekzagonal wurtzite
yapıda ve zinkit fazda kristallendiği belirlenmiştir. Kristallenme boyutu,
dislokasyon yoğunluğu, örgü parametreleri, kristal yapıdaki deformasyon ve
gerilim gibi yapısal parametreler hesaplanmıştır. SEM görüntülerinden, film
yüzeylerinin çatlaklar ve gözenekler olmadan iyi kaplanmış ve homojen olduğu
görülmektedir. Ortalama tane boyutu, tane sınırları ve filmlerin yüzey
durumlarının araştırılması için ImageJ programı kullanılmıştır. UV
sprektrofotometresi ile optik ölçümler yapılmış ve optik bant aralığı
diferansiyel yansıma ve Kubelka-Munk teorisiyle belirlenmiştir. Her iki
yöntemden de, ZnO filminin optik band değerinin Er katkısıyla düzensiz olarak
artıp azaldığı belirlenmiştir. %0,4 Er katkılı ZnO filminin optik band
aralığının diğer filmlere göre daha büyük olduğu gözlenmiştir.
