Privatisation of the CDC Tea Estates and Impact on the Population
Authors: Bamwai Aurelia
Published: September 2023

Purpose: During the Post-colonial period, the Western Powers intervened in African economies in different ways as strategies were put up to guarantee continues influence in Africa. Amongst such policies was the introduction of the Structural Adjustment Programs by the World Bank through the Bretton Woods Institutions which placed privatization as a precondition for giving out loans to developing countries. Following the economic crises that plagued Cameroon in the late 1980s and 1990s, she was pressurised by the Bretton Woods Institutions to privatise State Corporations as a pre-condition to benefit from loans. As a consequence, the Tea Estates of the CDC (Cameroon Development Corporation) was sold to a South African Consortium called Brobon Finex PTY Limited, which ran the tea sector under the name Cameroon Tea Estate (CTE) in 2002. This action bred negative consequences on the workers and the inhabitants of the surrounding areas who had benefitted significantly from the Corporation. The need to ascertain the degree of consequences of privatisation of the Tea Estates to the workers and its environs stimulated this research. All in all, this paper examines why privatisation that was meant to disengage state corporations from public to private ownership with the hope of enforcing efficiency ended up bringing misery and suffering to the people.

Methodology: Using information from oral and written sources, and adopting both qualitative and quantitative research methodology,

Findings: This paper came out with the findings that privatisation of the Tea Estates ushered in negative consequences on the people.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The paper makes some recommendations that could be considered in future, when privatising state corporations especially those with direct contact on the population like guideline policies on buyers, creation of monitoring strategies to control the activities of buyers as well as the provision of support facilities to the new beneficiaries.

Pemalsuan Sertipikat hak milik tanah seringkali menjadi masalah hukum bagi pihak-pihak atau oknum dari suatu lembaga yang tidak bertanggungjawab.  Pengaturan tindak pidana pemalsuan yang berlaku di Indonesia diatur dalam  Pasal 263 ayat (2) Jo pasal 55 KUHP dan diancam dengan pidana penjara paling lama enam tahun. Pertanggungjawaban pidana menggunakan surat palsu dalam pelepasan hak penguasaan dengan ganti rugi dalam jual beli tanah adalah terdakwa dijatuhkan pidana dengan pidana pidana penjara selama 3 (tiga) tahun. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pertimbangan hakim dalam menjatuhkan  putusan terhadap kasus menggunakan surat palsu dalam pelepasan hak penguasaan dengan ganti rugi dalam jual beli tanah adalah terdakwa telah terbukti secara sah dan meyakinkan bersalah melakukan tindak pidana menggunakan surat palsu dalam pelepasan hak penguasaan dengan ganti rugi dalam jual beli tanah dan  Majelis Hakim tidak menemukan hal-hal yang dapat menghapuskan pertanggungjawaban pidana, baik sebagai alasan pembenar dan atau alasan pemaaf, maka Terdakwa harus mempertanggungjawabkan perbuatannya.
ANALISIS YURIDIS PENERAPAN PRINSIP JUAL BELI DALAM AKAD MURABAHAH PADA BANK SYARIAH PERSPEKTIF HUKUM ISLAM (Penelitian Pada PT. Bank Sumut Cabang Pembantu Syariah Binjai)
Authors: Syahputra Hendra , Marzuki Marzuki , Affan Ibnu
Published: September 2023

Perkembangan jual beli dengan akad murabahah didasari pada pendapat para ulama. Secara umum, para fuqaha sepakat bahwa jual beli dengan akad murabahah hukumnya boleh (mubah), dengan ketentuan dalam jual beli dengan akad murahabah tersebut tidak mengandung unsur riba. Penerapan jual beli akad murabahah pada PT. Bank Sumut Cabang Pembantu Syariah Binjai belum sesuai dengan prinsip syaria’h, dikarenakan dalam jual beli dengan akad murabahah pihak bank tidak memiliki dan menguasai barang yang akan dibeli oleh pemohon, pihak bank juga mengenakan denda, dan adanya pengakuan hutang dari nasabah dalam akad. Pelanggaran prinsip-prinsip syariah dalam jual beli dengan akad murabahah pada bank syariah, secara substansial, yaitu Adanya hak tanggungan (APHT) margin keuntungan pihak Bank bisa menjadi riba. Secara teknis, pelanggaran prinsip jual beli murabahah, dikarenakan : a. Pembiayaan Murabahah dipersamakan dengan hutang piutang. b. bank syariah tidak memiliki dan menguasai barang yang akan dibeli oleh pemohon.

Kedudukan KPK pasca revisi Undang-Undang Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi menunjukkan adanya perubahan yang signifikan terhadap eksistensi KPK sebagai lembaga independen dengan adanya perubahan substansi Pasal 3 Undang-Undang KPK, di mana KPK berada di bawah rumpun kekuasaan eksekutif. Pelaksanaan fungsi, tugas dan wewenang KPK Pasca revisi Undang-Undang KPK terlihat terjadi penurunan performa kinerja dari KPK, khususnya dalam melakukan Operasi Tangkap Tangan (OTT).  Penurunan tingkat performa kinerja KPK pasca perubahan dari Undang-Undang KPK terlihat dari adanya penurunan jumlah OTT dan kualitas kasus yang dianggap kurang strategis, karena perkara korupsi yang diungkap bukanlah perkara korupsi yang melibatkan kerugian negara yang besar. Hambatan KPK dalam menjalankan tugas, fungsi dan wewenangnya, pasca revisi Undang-Undang KPK, dilihat dari aspek substansi hukum dan struktur hukum telah menyebabkan lembaga KPK tidak lagi dapat menjalankan fungsi, tugas dan wewenangnya secara independen dan menyebabkan menurunnya performa kinerja KPK dalam melakukan pemberantasan korupsi, baik dilihat dari segi kuantitas maupun kualitas perkara korupsi yang ditangani.

Authors: Bidi Thelma N , Matsika Annah , Mukorera Admire
Published: September 2023

The main objective of this study was to investigate the impact of poultry production on women’s empowerment in Mwenezi District, Zimbabwe. A two-stage multi-sampling procedure was used to select 20 participants for the study. A mixed methodology that combines both qualitative and quantitative data was used to collect the data. The data was collected using a semi-structured questionnaire. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics such as frequency counts, percentages, means, standard deviation, cross-tabulations, ranking, and chi-square analysis. A two-stage weighted mean procedure in Excel was used to rank the most important functions of poultry. Qualitative data was organized into themes and analyzed manually. According to the findings, the mean number of chickens per respondent was (24.6 ± 2.96). The findings also indicated that farmers prioritized chickens primarily for household consumption and income generation. Analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between education level and the number of chickens owned. Household heads with higher levels of education had a higher number of chickens, which is a potential indicator that the level of education is an important precursor to the adoption of improved management practices. According to the results of the study, the poultry project managed to achieve four key empowerment dimensions for women, i.e., empowering them to be financially independent through poultry sales, generating power and voice for women through contributing to household income, helping women build their assets, therefore improving their social status, and enhancing their leadership through helping them take up key leadership and decision-making positions in the management and maintenance of hatcheries.
Judicial Review of the Phrase “Without Victim Consent” in Permendikbudristek 30/2021 concerning the Prevention and Handling of Sexual Violence in University Environment
Authors: Sinaga Haposan Sahala Raja
Published: September 2023

This paper is motivated by the debate over the use of the phrase without the victim’s consent in the Ministerial Regulation of the Education, Culture, Research and Technology of the Republic of Indonesia Ministry Number 30 of 2021 concerning the Prevention and Handling of Sexual Violence in the University Environment which is considered to open opportunities and opportunities for liberation of immoral acts to occur which in turn can lead to free sex activity in the university environment. Apart from that, it has provided a free space for agreements on immoral behavior and free sexual activity to occur within tertiary institutions and has even opened opportunities for sex transactions to occur, so that sex transactions become legalized civil transactions. Therefore, using the normative juridical law research method, an attempt is made to answer the question of what material content uses the phrase without the victim’s consent in ministerial regulation, what is the concept of consent from a legal perspective, and how is the legal considerations of the Indonesia Supreme Court adjudicating this request for judicial review rights. The results are: First, The phrase without the victim’s consent is in Article 5 paragraph (2) letter b, letter f, letter g, letter h, letter j, letter l, and letter m in the ministerial regulation; Second, The concept of consent in the perspective of criminal law relates to the concept of “without coercion” as referred to in several articles of the Indonesian Criminal Code. Third, The Supreme Court gave legal considerations that the use of the phrase without the victim’s consent does not regulate consent in sexual activity (sexual consent), but the victim’s consent in the event of sexual violence.
Spatial Distribution of Burglary at Residential Premises in the Newlands East Policing Precint
Authors: Mbonambi Nokukhanya Neptune , Singh Shanta
Published: September 2023

It is in the best interest of community members and policy makers to comprehend not only which crime prevention methods are most effective, but also where they are appropriate to apply. This study aimed at exploring the spatial distribution of burglary at residential premises in the Newlands East policing precinct. This was deemed necessary as residential burglary had been reported as the highest property-related crime in the study area for the five-year period (2015-2019) preceding the study. To ensure that the aim of this study was achieved, a qualitative research approach was utilised which assisted the researcher to focus on the spatial assessment of burglary at residential premises in the Newlands East policing precinct. Data collection was achieved by means of Focus Group Discussions and semi-structured interviews that involved a total of thirty-seven participants comprising of South African Police Service members, Community Policing Forum representatives, local Ward councillors, and ordinary community members. A set of pre-determined questions was used that enabled the researcher to explore themes and elicit responses that focused on achieving the objectives of the study. The findings of the study indicated that burglaries in the study area occurred spatially. This means that burglaries are highly concentrated at specific residential premises, particularly in the Newlands West area. The findings also indicated that various factors at local community level were instrumental in instigating this crime, and it is thus argued that SAPS and CPF members need to work collaboratively to develop strategies to curb the spatial distribution of burglaries in the study area.  These findings suggest that a more concerted effort is required to forge collaboration among the government, the SAPS, and the community to effectively curb burglaries at residential premises. New evidence also highlights the role of construction/development companies as role-players in the fight against the scourge of residential burglaries.

Published: September 2023

A lot of studies reported that female learners' capabilityin mastering second language is better than that in male learners (Lasekan, 2018), and female students tend to be more successful than male students (Hamsinah, 2017). Adult female test-takers experience bigger challenges in dealing with EPT since they are usually multi-roles women i.e. working women, students, wives, and even mothers with babies. The objectives of the study were to analyze the voices of adult women test-takers on the challenges in dealing with English proficiency test related to the most difficult skill that they have to take and how they cope their problems. The study applied mixed method study with descriptive quantitative and phenomenology approach. The data were taken through questionaire and structured interview for 77 respondents of the study. Based on the result of the data analysis on 77 respondents, the questionaire data show that the most difficult part of EPT was listening (58.4%). The respondents provided many strategies for raising their EPT scores. The most popular method of learning EPT was autonomous learning (50.6%), which was followed by taking a course, studying with friends, and not trying to improve EPT at all. These methods received 35.1%, 7.8%, and 6.5 of the total votes, respectively.

Authors: Barros Márcia Izabeli Guimarães , Suguiura Iully Tiyoko Rebelatto , Linzmeyer Alessandra , Carvalho Alberito Rodrigo de
Published: September 2023

Introduction: Chronic low back pain (CLBP) represents a complex condition. Although, by the biomedical model, biological signals and symptoms use to be the guide to both the diagnostic and prognostic, those does not correspond to the CLBP biopsychosocial etiology by ignoring the patient's beliefs and convictions about their pain. Objective: To examine the association between CLBP classification based on the biomedical model and the biopsychosocial model. Materials and methods: A retrospective cross sectional observational study. The study analyzed physiotherapeutic screening records obtained from an institutional research group. The classification of CLBP was determined using both the biomedical model and the biopsychosocial model. The biomedical model classified cases as specific or non-specific, while the biopsychosocial model categorized them as low, medium, or high risk for developing poor prognosis. The association between the two models was assessed using the Chi-squared test. Results: A total of 98 physiotherapeutic screening records were evaluated and classified as follows: non-specific and low risk (n=18); non-specific and medium risk (n=22); non-specific and high risk (n=23); specific and low risk (n=7); specific and medium risk (n=15); specific and high risk (n=13). The analysis revealed no significant association between the classifications according to the two models. Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that the CLBP classification based on the biomedical model does not appear to be associated with the biopsychosocial classification. Further research and exploration are needed to better understand the complexities and potential interplay between these classification systems.

Published: September 2023

In India major portion of goat farming is extensive and breeding system follows uncontrolled natural mating. For better breeding management there should be sufficient good quality stud bucks. But it is very unfortunate that due to lack of breeding buck more than 30% estrus does remain without service. In order to check the negative selection and for proper management of breeding policy, cryopreservation of superior native buck semen and artificial insemination is the only way. Artificial insemination (AI) is a part of assisted reproductive technology (ART) providing augmentation of genetic make-up in individuals. Artificial insemination in sheep and goat was first described detail in 1987. Globally 0.5 million AIs are performed annually in case of goat which is very less than other animals. Research in the area of cryopreservation of goat semen and artificial insemination has been limited to few research institutes and AI is least practiced in field condition. Intra-cervical insemination is widely practiced in case of does with successful results.
DINERO ENDÓGENO Y DINERO EXÓGENO
Authors: Wang de Adames Maribel , Lozano Vásquez Berta Adaysi , Pimentel Montilla David
Published: September 2023

Se efectúa una revisión bibliográfica y conceptual de tipo exploratoria, como una primera aproximación a las dos teorías explicativas de cómo se crea el dinero: la primera de ellas que afirma que el dinero se crea de manera exógena y la segunda que asevera que se crea de manera endógena. La creación exógena de dinero supone que desde afuera de la economía entra el dinero en forma de impresión por parte de la autoridad monetaria, mientras que la creación endógena implica que el dinero es creado por la demanda de fondos prestables que requiere la propia sociedad.  Un primer acercamiento denota una mayor cantidad de estudios de demanda monetaria frente a los de oferta monetaria; diversos autores que abordan el tema tratando el dinero como objeto de estudio arraigado a otras variables, así como distintas posturas donde cobra relevancia de manera implícita la teoría de la endogeneidad. Se hace necesaria una revisión más delimitada y estudios empíricos que permitan reunir evidencia que esclarezca la validez de una u otra teoría, en el contexto panameño.}

ANÁLISIS SOCIAL DEL PROCESO DE TRANSFORMACION DE LOS MODELOS DE SALUD EN AMÉRICA LATINA Y PANAMÁ
Authors: Gordon Canto Israel
Published: September 2023

El presente artículo presenta un enfoque social del proceso de reformas de los modelos de salud que ha atravesado América Latina y Panamá. El proceso de reforma ha sido lento y ha concurrido por diversas etapas, pasando de una primera orientación de integración del Sistema de Salud, cruzando por la búsqueda de aumentar la cobertura de la atención de la salud, mejorar la calidad, eficiencia y eficacia de la atención de la salud, introduciendo conceptos nuevos como la descentralización, separación de funciones entre los Ministerios de Salud y los Seguros Sociales, la participación y control social, hasta modificar la obligación del Estado de garantizar la asistencia de la salud, (es decir que el Estado se convierte en un agente intermediario entre los trabajadores y empresas proveedoras de servicios privados en algunos casos y en otros, intermediario con empresas públicas y cooperativas). Hasta arribar a propuestas tales como reforma del modelo de atención, reforma en el modelo de gestión, y reforma en el modelo de financiamiento.

 

Se concluye que los problemas en el modelo de atención de la salud, escenifica un proceso de rápido deterioro de la calidad, eficiencia y eficacia de los servicios de salud; al igual que los problemas de financiación un modelo de gestión poco calificado, afectado por el aumento de costos, deterioro del poder adquisitivo monetario, deficiencia en la asignación de recursos, falta de planificación social, y por la presencia de monopolios y oligopolios que inducen a elevar los costos de medicamentos, insumos y equipos médicos quirúrgicos y por qué no señalarlo que propicia la corrupción; a la postre de un mal enfoque de medicina preventiva, lo cual contribuye a elevar los costos de salud.

Authors: Easterly R.G. (Tre) , Ferand Natalie , Myers Brian , Galindo Sebastian
Published: September 2023

Principals have traditionally served as the instructional leader in a school, significantly impacting school culture and effectiveness. Despite this importance, little work has been conducted to examine how administrators view and impact school-based agricultural education programs. The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine how the leadership practices of principals support the culture of exemplary school-based agricultural education programs in Florida. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with five principals who supported SBAE teachers in exemplary programs in Florida. Thematic analysis of the transcripts yielded several emergent themes. The principals relayed value in agricultural education and found that school-based agricultural education programs helped meet their school's overall goals. The principals saw their role as helping the teacher find ways to grow without micromanaging their work. The principals expressed interest in the prospect of professional development to help them support agriculture teachers in their programs. Based on these findings, the authors recommend state and national agricultural education leaders implement professional development opportunities for teachers and principals so they can work in concert to find areas where their goals intersect and focus on strengthening those areas. A model for examining principal support in SBAE is presented based on the findings.

Published: September 2023

This meta-analysis was designed to investigate the relationship between genetic polymorphisms (AGT rs699, AMPD1 rs17602729, HIF1α rs11549465, IL-6 rs1800795) and power athletes’ status. Only case-control studies were included in the meta-analysis. A systematic search of the PubMed and Web of Science databases was performed to identify relevant studies and 23 studies met the inclusion criteria for the meta-analysis. The data from the included studies were pooled and analyzed using a random effects or fix effects model. The effect size was calculated as the odds ratio or a risk ratio with 95% confidence intervals. The results showed that certain genetic polymorphisms, AGT rs699 Thr allele, HIF1A rs11549465 Ser allele and AMPD1 rs17602729 C allele, were significantly more prevalent in power athletes (p < 0.05). When examining the genotype frequency distribution of AGT rs699 and AMPD1 rs17602729, significant differences were found in both the dominant and recessive models (p < 0.05). The results indicate that these gene polymorphisms play a role in power athlete status, however, new and more comprehensive studies are needed to confirm these results.

Authors: Fahmi Mirza
Published: September 2023

Kuala Jangka Beach is one of the beaches in the village of Jangka Alue, Term District, Bireuen Regency, Aceh Province. Which is a tourist spot and also a fishery area for fishermen. Waves that are high enough to impact the shoreline so that some areas are eroded due to erosion. Therefore, a coastal protection structure is needed, namely a revetment. A revetment is a coastal protection structure that functions to protect the beach from scouring waves to minimize erosion around the coast. The data used in this planning are wind data, bathymetry, and tidal data. Based on the results of the analysis it is known that the dominant wind that occurs is from the east which is equal to 36%, with the greatest speed being 10 knots or 8.65 m/s. The design wave height calculated from the prevailing wind characteristics is 1,699 m. Sedimentation analysis shows that sedimentation at Kuala Term Beach is dominated by longshore sediment transport which reaches 1,360,132.805 m3/year. Revetment construction is calculated using the general revetment planning formula. The revetment was built from the mountain rock. The height of the revetment building is 3 m with a peak width of 1.5 m and the thickness of the revetment guard wall is 1.5 m and the weight of the bag as a protective layer is 0.301 tons.

The objective of this article was to analyze, through a bibliographical research, the contributions that the songs can provide in the development and reception of children who enter kindergarten, such an important phase for motor, cognitive and affective development. The entry of a child into daycare or preschool is a remarkable moment for the child and his family. This is a routine change that requires careful planning by both the family and the pedagogical team of the institution that will host them. The child needs to have his adaptation process to the new routine respected in the most diverse aspects. Therefore, the songs are a playful tool that will help the child to feel welcomed, attracted, respected, and included in this new living space. The use of musicality will also help the educator in the teaching-learning process, as the songs instigate the development of attention, speech, respect among students, body expression, socialization, vocabulary expansion, motor skills and many others, thus promoting, the integral development of children. The songs can be presented in the most diverse ways, such as through electronic sound devices, but on the occasion, we will emphasize the work developed with the use of voice and gestures as an instrument of acceptance, affection and socialization.
STRUCTURAL PROCESSES IN THE LIGHT OF THE BACKLASH EFFECT
Authors: Délli Ribeiro Rodrigues Marcos , Paula da Costa Ribeiro Bruna , Ribeiro Linhares Natália , Quirino Ribeiro Ingrid
Published: September 2023

Currently, some disputes are so complex that they require an entire reform of the institutes involved in order to stop the violation of rights. In this approach, structural processes come into play, as a means of solving imbroglios of this complexity. However, there are obstacles to the effectiveness of judgments in the structural process, such as the backlash effect. Thus, the question is urgent: is it possible, even in the face of impasses, that the structural sentence generates positive effects in the world of facts? Based on doctrinal, jurisprudential and legislative studies, it is understood that the most appropriate solution for the case is the use of the dialogic sentence technique.
