The Environmental Impact of Port Activities at the Manila North Harbor: A Qualitative Investigation
Authors: Omotosho Isaiah ,   Asian Institute of Maritime Studies
Published: July 2024

The study assessed the environmental impact of port activities in Manila North Harbor Port and provided insights to contribute in the enhancement of environmental protection policies and practices in the Philippines. Employing descriptive-qualitative design, five (5) purposively selected participants from each department involved in port activities at Manila North Harbor were selected as participants of the study. Using a semi- structured questionnaire, interview was done to gather narrative data from the participants with thematic analysis as method in analyzing the data. The findings highlight that, activities such as oil transport, waste pollution, and ship deballasting have a significant detrimental effect on the environment, leading to pollution and degradation of the marine ecosystem. Conversely, activities like noise pollution, cargo handling, and passenger transportation have a relatively lesser impact. Participants observed these harmful practices persisting since the establishment of the port, resulting in negative alterations in water quality and weather conditions over time. Implementing stringent waste management regulations, reducing the use of hazardous substances, conducting regular water quality monitoring and ecosystem health assessments, fostering collaboration between port authorities, environmental agencies, and local communities, allocating resources for research and development, and utilizing the research findings for sustainable solutions are ways to lessen these impacts. Striking a balance between economic development and environmental conservation is crucial for the port's long-term prosperity and the preservation of the surrounding environment.
Determinants of Tax Compliance Intention on Pre-Service Tax Payer with Extended Theory of Planned Behavior
Authors: Della Fadhilatunisa  , Shera Afidatunisa  , Rosidah  , M. Miftach Fakhri
Published: July 2024

This study investigates the determinants of tax compliance intention among pre-service taxpayers using an extended Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) framework. Integrating attitudes towards tax compliance (ATC), subjective norms (SN), and perceived ease with tax laws (PETX) enhances the traditional TPB model's predictive power. Data collected via a survey of pre-service taxpayers and analyzed with structural equation modeling (SEM) reveal that ATC significantly enhances tax awareness (TA) with a path coefficient of 0.397 (p < 0.001), while SN and PETX also positively affect TA with path coefficients of 0.293 (p < 0.001) and 0.195 (p < 0.001), respectively. ATC and PETX show significant direct effects on tax compliance behavior (TCB), with total effects of 0.399 (p < 0.001) and 0.403 (p < 0.001). Although SN does not directly affect TCB, its indirect effect through TA (0.082, p < 0.05) is significant. TA significantly impacts tax compliance (TC) with a path coefficient of 0.277 (p < 0.001). These results suggest that enhancing positive attitudes towards tax compliance, leveraging social norms, and simplifying tax laws are crucial for increasing tax awareness and compliance among pre-service taxpayers. The study offers valuable insights for policymakers and tax authorities to develop effective educational and regulatory strategies aimed at fostering voluntary tax compliance, contributing to the literature by validating the extended TPB model and emphasizing early intervention in tax education.

Data were obtained through surveys, interviews, questionnaires, and related documentation. The analysis showed a positive, albeit weak, relationship between Transformational Leadership and OCB. However, a low correlation (0.381) indicates a minimal relationship. A high p-value (0.26) indicates the statistical insignificance of this relationship. Regression confirms that changes in Transformational Leadership do not significantly affect OCB. A low R Square (0.112) indicates that Transformational Leadership explains only a tiny percentage of OCB behavior. Despite the positive relationship, Transformational Leadership is needed to drive more significant changes in the application of technology and improvement of public services in the local government of Sumedang.

Authors: Khumayah Siti
Published: July 2024

The role of Indonesian state civil servants (ASN) in combating corruption is covered in this article, with particular attention paid to how well they comprehend the Corruption Perception Index (GPA). This study, which used qualitative research methods, found that only a tiny portion of ASNs had a thorough comprehension of and ability to communicate GPA. ASN comprehension is impacted by several factors, including a lack of knowledge about the repercussions of neglecting one's GPA, a lack of training tools, and restricted information availability. Lower-level or regional civil officials frequently need more understanding, even though those working in the legal, judicial, and legislative sectors typically have a superior understanding. Thus, improving ASN's comprehension of GPA is essential to the government's anti-corruption initiatives. With increased knowledge, public employees will be better equipped to actively participate in efforts to stop and deal with corruption in Indonesia.

Forgotten Victims: Male Honor Killings in Muslim Societies
Authors: Gabbay Shaul M.
Published: July 2024

Honor killings, while predominantly affecting women, also claim the lives of men under specific circumstances in the Muslim world. Recent cases from various regions highlight this disturbing reality. In Lebanon, a man was killed with his wife and relatives in a mass honor killing, reflecting the severe consequences men face due to familial disputes. Pakistan grapples with high-profile cases such as the murder of Daraz Khan, along with his girlfriend, ordered by local clerics, illustrating the lethal intersection of honor and religious decrees. In Algeria, historical and ongoing instances of honor killings, including those targeting men, demonstrate deep-rooted cultural norms perpetuating these acts of violence. Sudan also reports cases where men are targeted in honor killings related to family honor and societal expectations. Despite legal reforms in countries like Jordan, Sudan, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, enforcement remains inconsistent. This paper explores the historical and sociological roots of honor killings, examines modern incidents involving male victims, and analyzes the effectiveness of legal responses.

The Predicting Effect of Occupational Commitment and Leadership Styles on Organizational Effectiveness of Public School Heads
Authors: Mamasarogan Jalaisa , Tan Mark Raymond
Published: July 2024

The research aimed to assess the predictive impact of occupational commitment and leadership styles on the organizational effectiveness of public school leaders. The results revealed that rank, years in service as school head, and type of school exhibited statistically significant differences in the school heads’ occupational commitment. On the other hand, the statistical significance test exposed that school heads’ leadership styles of transformational, transactional, and democratic leadership exhibited a significant positive association with organizational effectiveness. Furthermore, the influence test showed that occupational commitment significantly contributed to explaining the variance in organizational effectiveness among respondents. Alternatively, leadership styles, specifically transformational, transactional, and democratic, were found to be predictors of organizational effectiveness. Lastly, the multiple regression results for predicting organizational effectiveness based on the school heads’ occupational commitment and leadership styles revealed that the model fit is robust, demonstrating that the overall model is statistically significant and provides a good fit for the data. Among the independent variables under study, occupational commitment had a more important influence on organizational effectiveness. On the other hand, leadership styles also significantly predict organizational effectiveness, though with a minor impact. This indicated that while effective leadership styles positively influence organizational effectiveness, their effect is less pronounced than occupational commitment. The study underscored the importance of commitment and leadership in cultivating favorable organizational climates that facilitate collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement.

Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT – The inclusion of art in psychotherapy as a treatment method aims to improve health and life, especially for those experiencing psychological disorders. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of art therapy in mental health work. To achieve this, a bibliographic research with a qualitative approach to the data was conducted. The main results indicated that art therapy improves self-esteem, reduces anxiety and depressive symptoms, and enhances the ability to express emotions and a coherent identity. Due to the new possibilities offered to reconfigure and elaborate traumas and internal conflicts related to their emotional experiences, the participants were able to engage in processes. Art is a means of symbolic communication that, according to Lev Vygotsky, mediates the individual’s relationship with the cultural and social environment.

Background: Micronutrient deficiencies, including biotin, iron, zinc, and vitamin D, can lead to hair problems such as loss and thinning. This study explores the improvement of SesZen-BioTM, a natural biotin supplement derived from Sesbania grandiflora leaves, to give NI- SesZen-BioTM. Materials: The nature and structure of biotin in SesZen-BioTM were evaluated using C14 analysis and 1H NMR. Further, Sesbania grandiflora was subjected to an improved economic process to give NI-SesZen-BioTM. HPLTC-aided phytochemical profiling was performed for SesZen-BioTM, NI- SesZen-BioTM, and standard S. grandiflora leaf extract. The purity of d-biotin was quantified using HPLC. The dissolution profile of SesZen-BioTM and NI- SesZen-BioTM was tested to determine bioequivalence and compared versus synthetic biotin. Results: NMR and C14 analysis revealed that SesZen-BioTM contained 100% natural d-biotin. The yield for SesZen-BioTM and NI- SesZen-BioTM was found to be 17% and 18%, respectively, and both exhibited phytochemical profiles similar to standard extract. The release rate for SesZen-BioTM was similar till a dose of 500 mg and slowly decreased at higher concentrations (800-100mg). A 350 mg NI- SesZen-BioTM showed bioequivalence to 250 mg and 500 mg for SesZen-BioTM. Percent d-biotin content was 0.5% in SesZen-BioTM and 0.81% in NI- SesZen-BioTM. Conclusion: This new economically driven process yielded NI-SesZen-BioTM, with similar yield, higher biotin (100%natural) content, and similar dissolution profile but at a reduced dosage as compared to SesZen-BioTM and surpassed synthetic biotin with its sustained release format. Thus, NI- SesZen-BioTM is a promising solution for individuals seeking natural supplements for maintaining hair and skin heath.

Background: The crucial aspect to consider during method development and validation, ensuring accurate, precise, and specific estimation of drug substances and drug products, is stability. Various factors, including environmental, instrumental, reagent, and human factors, can pose challenges in achieving suitable method development and validation. Objective: This work aimed to develop and validate a low flow rate, LCMS compatible, simple, and rapid reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method for estimating efavirenz and its degradation products at different stress conditions. Materials and Methods: The HPLC system employed a Phenomenex Luna 5μ C18 (2) 100A (250 x 4.6 mm) column and a mobile phase of methanol: 20 millimolar ammonium formate solution (90:10) adjusted to pH 4 with formic acid. All analytes were separated within 15 minutes and detected at 247 nm. Method validation was carried out according to ICH guidelines, including linearity, accuracy, precision, ruggedness, robustness, LOD, and LOQ. Results and Discussion: The method was linear in the 10-90 μg/ml range, with a regression coefficient 0.999. Intra- and inter-day precisions, ruggedness, and robustness were within acceptable limits (≤2% RSD) with LOD and LOQ of 0.35 and 1.16 μg/ml, respectively. Degradation study indicates well resolution of the drug and degradants.  Conclusion: Purposeful degradation of efavirenz resulted in different degradation products under various stress conditions, and the method demonstrated satisfactory resolution from its degradants.
Stabilizing Peat Soil Using Sawdust Ash

Published: July 2024

The aims of this research are to analyse the parameters of untreated peat soil and improve the engineering properties of the peat soil retrieved from MARDI Pontian in Johor, by using lightweight materials such as Sawdust Ash (SDA) so it meets the condition of construction. Due to rapid urbanisation, a large amount of saw dust is produced worldwide. The use of saw dust as ash in geotechnical applications is most likely a better solution compared to disposal in open areas or landfills. There were two types of soil used in this study such as organic peat soil (shallow) and mixed peat soil (moderate). In this investigation, sawdust ash (SDA) was employed as an admixture, and the stabilizer's percentage content was applied in 3.0% increments to both soils. Depending on the weight of the soil sample, the SDA has been applied in concentrations of 12%, 15% and 18%. Testing has been done on soil properties like bulk and dry density, moisture content, and the Atterberg limit. The optimum moisture content and maximum dry density of the soil samples were determined using the Standard Proctor test results in this investigation. Unconfined Compressive Strength has been used in determining the strength of this type of soil (UCS). The specific gravity ranged from 1.5 to 1.8 and the moisture content was 220% and 292% for untreated organic and mixed peat soil respectively, with an organic content of roughly 77% for both type of soil. The liquid Atterberg limit had a value of 230 and 240. By reason of the most of the peat does not satisfy the plastic limit, the test has been disregarded. The results of the compaction test indicated that adding SDA to peat soil decreased the maximum dry density (MDD), but increased strength. The study's findings show that adding 15% of Sawdust ash (SDA) to peat soil enhances its engineering qualities.
