Tinjauan Yuridis Sengketa Tanah Akibat Perbuatan Melawan Hukum: Studi Kasus Putusan No.88/Pdt.G/2020/PN.Bks
Authors: Priambodo Joko , Iskandar Ardhira
Published: November 2023

One example of an unlawful act is illegally occupying land and buildings without the owner's permission, which gives rise to disputes. Land conflict (dispute) is an action aimed at obtaining legal protection provided by the court to prevent acts of self-judgment (eigenrichting). The development of land conflicts/disputes, both in quality and quantity, is always increasing, while the main factor in the emergence of land conflicts is the fixed area of ​​land, while the number of people who need land (humans) to meet their needs is always increasing. So, in land disputes, if the parties do not want to resolve the case peacefully, they can resolve it by submitting the case to the District Court. However, in practice, in a case the losing party does not want to accept the court's decision and then files an appeal, cassation and judicial review. In this research, the author uses a normative research method, namely research by analyzing applicable legal norms, both in the form of laws and court decisions. Research data was obtained from library materials and primary legal documentation, namely Law no. 5 of 1960 concerning the Basic Agrarian Law, Government Regulation no. 24 of 1997 concerning Land Registration, secondary and tertiary legal materials. The results of this research show that land disputes in Indonesia are resolved in the usual way through the General Court and State Administrative Court with incomplete and suboptimal results. This is caused by overlapping decisions that have been determined by each judicial body, the difficulty of executing decisions of judicial bodies that have permanent legal force and the lack of clarity regarding which laws and regulations are competent to resolve land cases in Indonesia. There are six roots of land conflict in particular, namely first, the issue of disputes over court decisions. Second, the issue of land rights applications related to forest area claims. Third, the issue of boundary disputes and land registration as well as overlapping certificates on the same land. Fourth, the problem of reclaiming and reoccupying land that has been released by housing developers due to manipulated compensation. Fifth, land issues regarding ulayat or customary land claims. Sixth, problems related to plantation land.

CORRESPONDENCE: The Discovery of the Site of the Legendary House of Alfred Russel Wallace in Ternate
Authors: Hughes Nicholas , Taib Rinto
Published: November 2023

Alfred Russel Wallace’s house in Ternate has become legendary as the site where he penned his Ternate Essay outlining his theory of evolution by natural selection and posted it to Charles Darwin in March 1858. Marzuki & Andili (2015) conclude, “Wallace's house in Ternate is the most important science history site in Indonesia”, because this is where he was living when he penned his Ternate Essay. Earlier searches for Wallace’s house concluded that the site was at the Santiong house, based on the presence of an old, deep well and oral history. These findings would have been convincing had there not been any more old, deep wells in the Santiong district where Wallace had lived. This study hypothesized that other old, deep wells might exist within the district. A census was undertaken to identify all such wells - seven were located. The site of one, newly identified, well matched Wallace’s clues most convincingly. This we named the Oranje site. The evidence strongly suggests that Wallace lived on the southern corner of Jalan Merdeka and Jalan Pipit overlooking the southwest bastion of Fort at the Oranje site—not at the Santiong house site.

Electronic Democracy: Enhancing Participation and Transparency through E-Voting
Authors: Fauzi Anwar , Habibi Muhammad
Published: November 2023

This study aims to examine the implementation of the e-voting system in Indonesia, focusing on its stages, challenges, and potential. The methods employed include document analysis and literature review related to e-voting, encompassing case studies of implementation in Belgium and the Netherlands. The study found that the implementation of e-voting in Indonesia is still in its initial stage and is limited by the uneven distribution of electronic identification (e-KTP). E-voting has the potential to simplify the election process in Indonesia, an archipelagic nation, thereby saving time and costs. However, challenges related to data security, process confidentiality, and election integrity must be addressed. Furthermore, the implementation of e-voting requires supportive infrastructure, adequate public education, and a robust legal framework. The findings of this study indicate that, although e-voting offers efficiency, the decision to adopt it should be made thoughtfully, weighing the pros and cons, as well as considering its impact on public participation.

Purpose: The study investigated challenges associated with border security operations to promote socio-economic development using an integrated border management model at Aflao Border in Ghana. Using a mixed method approach, which is in line with the transformative philosophical underpinning.

Methodology: Both interviews and questionnaires were employed as data collection tools. The population was sampled from four security service institutions manning the operations at Afloa border. Given the premise that border security forces were selected from the four coordinated security forces. The study respectively drew 112 security personnel drawn at random from the Afloa border. Using the sampling ratio proposed by Cochran (1963: 75) to arrive at variability p = 0.5 (maximum variability) and with the desire of 95% confidence level and ±5% precision. The sampled population was composed of 106 border security personnel, and 6 senior border security personnel serving in the hierarchy of the General, Patrol, Intelligence, and Anti-Human Smuggling and Trafficking Units at the borders were interviewed to furnish the qualitative data for this study. The study adopted a descriptive research design using personnel from the Ghana Immigration Service, Customs Division of Ghana Revenue Authority, Ghana Police Service, and Ghana Armed Forces in charge of security at the Aflao border.

Findings: The study concludes that specific challenges which confront the border security apparatus are, in order of priority, inadequate logistics and equipment, inadequate coordination among border officials, and inadequacy of border security personnel.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Improve border control, the government should make needed resources available by providing modern equipment/gadgets and logistics for patrol teams and the operations of the security system.

Authors: Nur Fauzi Faiz , Siswanto Budi
Published: November 2023

A flower garden was created to green the embung area considering the dry season in August. The master plan used as a reference is a master plan made by the previous KKN period. In the execution process, the making of the flower garden has yet to be realized. Therefore, in this period of KKN, a flower garden was made west of the village pond. The flower garden created has a size of 8 x 2 meters with a distance of 30 cm between plants. There are 89 plants in this flower garden, namely 50 red purslane plants, 30 sabrina plants, and nine panca air plants. Making the garden begins with clearing the land and cleaning up the existing weeds. Then, the land measurement is carried out according to the desired garden size. After that, the process of tillage so that the soil can be planted with flower plants that have been prepared. The process of tillage is a process that takes much time. More than three days of new soil can be planted with flower plants. The obstacle faced in making this garden is the dry soil conditions, resulting in soil management that must be done with a long process.

Desde el primer programa de ensayo de educación preescolar el cual se puso en práctica durante el año escolar de 1971, elaborado por la entonces Dirección Nacional de Currículum del Ministerio de Educación, programa cuya aplicación fue oficial mediante resuelto ministerial No. 1717 del 25 de noviembre de 1971, hasta el último programa destinado al mismo nivel educativo, cuya data es del año 2014, es de frecuente mención entre sus enfoques curriculares, los alcances de una educación armónica e integral. La estructura de esta investigación hace énfasis en las competencias que debe lograr el niño preescolar cuya educación esté debidamente planificada, organizada, ejecutada y evaluada por los organismos y profesionales competentes, a la vez que en las acciones que se le confiere a múltiples instituciones cuyo quehacer principal debe redundar en los beneficios personales, biopsicosociales, educativos, socioafectivos, económicos, familiares, entre otros, para que los niños de la primera infancia gocen de los beneficios que la vida debe otorgarle, impulsándolos a ser ciudadanos de bien y de provecho a la sociedad en la cual se desenvuelven. El presente estudio investigativo reúne su interés en los centros educativos principalmente en aulas de clase de nivel inicial, ya que en ella se vive día a día el aprendizaje de los niños en edades tempranas, para dar pie a una oportunidad de implementar nuevas metodologías que lleven al aprendiz a desarrollar por sí solo el descubrimiento de su entorno real. Para ello es imperante la preparación cónsona y actualizada del docente, cuyos perfiles de ingreso a la formación universitaria, deben ser punta de lanza para la obtención del logro esperado cuando se habla y se hace en beneficio de la formación integral del ser humano.
A complexidade das relações envolvendo a matemática humana, os fenômenos e a matemática numênica: sugestões para abordagens epistemológicas em sala de aula
Authors: Levy Lênio Fernandes
Published: November 2023

As línguas consistem em alicerces compostos por signos, demandando uma massa falante para transformá-las em realidades sociais. Classificam-se em: (i) línguas históricas (idiomas) e (ii) artificiais (referentes, essas últimas, a técnicas específicas, a exemplo da matemática). As línguas, entre elas a matemática, são simplificadoras e reducionistas, mantendo-se em posição inferior à da complexidade dos mundos fenomênico e numênico. A investigação descrita neste texto foi de cariz teórico, com lastro na filosofia da complexidade moriniana. Pressupõe-se que as línguas sejam construções cronológicas a cargo tanto de indivíduos quanto de sociedades. Não se confundindo com os respectivos pensamentos, as línguas, entretanto, caminham pari passu com eles. Sem embargo da citada discriminação, neste artigo, com fins didáticos: (i) chamam-se os signos idiomáticos e as atividades cognitivas atinentes a eles, indistintamente, de línguas; (ii) denominam-se os signos matemáticos e as ações cognitivas concernentes a eles, indiferentemente, de matemática. A hipótese cuja coerência procurou-se mostrar nesta comunicação científica é a de que a matemática (como estrutura simbólica e como pensamento técnico) é elaborada ao longo do tempo com vistas à consecução de entendimentos, de explicações e de consensos cada vez mais acurados sobre (entre outras coisas) fenômenos e númenos. Ou seja: a matemática é humana, e com ela ruma-se em direção à matemática dita numênica. A contribuição pedagógica deste trabalho constituiu-se na fundamentação argumentativa da proposta de que, em aulas de matemática, haja discussões, debates, reflexões e/ou meditações acerca do que é o conhecimento, particularmente o conhecimento matemático, com ênfase, em tais aulas, a ideias apoiadas no sistema filosófico da complexidade.

Authors: Sa’adah Lailatus
Published: November 2023

There are various strategies and techniques of teaching used by teachers to improve students' reading comprehension. The most widely used and challenging tasks for teachers are the implementation of the media. In this study, the researcher employed video of narrative text as a considerable media to enhance students' reading comprehension and as a way to get students attention to study. Moreover, few studies report on the of videos used in teaching learning process in which any result will actually be considered beneficial to the development of teaching. Video of narrative text is a sequence of narrative text which is visualize in form of video. In conducting this study, the researcher used quasi experimental research design. Following the idea, this study was designed to investigate the effect of using video of narrative text on the students' reading comprehension. The tenth-grade students of one of the private schools in Malang were used as the target population of this study. The required data were collected through achievement test. Due to the need to understand the effect, ttest was employed in this present study. The result of this study showed that the use of video of narrative text did not give a significant effect on the students' reading comprehension. It was proven from the calculation result of independent sample ttest. Half of them showed improvement in their but half of them did not. Therefore, there was no significant different between students who taught by using video of narrative text and original text.

De una idea inicial acerca de qué podían aportar, fue cristalizando en la práctica social, en las expresiones de los conciudadanos y compañeros, en la revisión del deber revolucionario, el siguiente problema: Qué aportes nos proporcionó como jóvenes estudiantes de carreras pedagógicas universitarias la actuación en la primera línea de lucha ante los embates de la pandemia.
Dark septate endophytic fungi associated with pioneer grass inhabiting volcanic deposits and their functions in promoting plant growth
Authors: Sun Han , Nishizawa Tomoyasu , Ohta Hiroyuki , Narisawa Kazuhiko
Published: November 2023

Abstract. Growth of the pioneer grass Miscanthus condensatus, one of the first vegetation types to be established on volcanic deposits, is promoted by root-associated fungi, particularly dark septate endophytes (DSEs). Fungal taxa within DSEs colonize the root of Miscanthus condensatus in oligotrophic Andosol, and their function in plant growth promotion remains largely unknown. We, therefore, comprehensively assessed the composition of the DSE community associated with Miscanthus condensatus root in volcanic ecosystems using the approaches of both metabarcoding (next-generation sequencing) and isolation (culturing). Also, the promotion effects of DSEs on plant growth (rice as a proxy) were evaluated by inoculation of core isolates to rice roots. Here, we found the following: (i) 70 % of culturable fungi that colonized Miscanthus condensatus phylogenetically belonged to DSEs; (ii) seven orders were identified by both sequencing and culturing methods; and (iii) inoculation of DSE isolates (Phialocephala fortinii, P. helvetica, and Phialocephala sp.) validated their effects on rice growth, particularly under an extremely low pH condition (compared to the control without inoculation, rice biomass was enhanced 7.6-fold after inoculation of P. fortinii). This study helps improve our understanding of the community of Miscanthus condensatus-associated DSE fungi and their functions in promoting plant growth.
Examining the dynamics of a Borneo vortex using a balance approximation tool
Authors: Hardy Sam , Methven John , Schwendike Juliane , Harvey Ben , Cullen Mike
Published: November 2023

Abstract. Cyclonic vortices that are weaker than tropical storm category can bring heavy precipitation as they propagate across the South China Sea and surrounding countries. Here we investigate the structure and dynamics responsible for the intensification of a Borneo vortex that moved from the north of Borneo across the South China Sea and impacted Vietnam and Thailand in late October 2018. This case study is examined using Met Office Unified Model (MetUM) simulations and a semi-geotriptic (SGT) balance approximation tool. Satellite observations and a MetUM simulation with 4.4 km grid initialised at 12:00 UTC on 21 October 2018 show that the westward-moving vortex is characterised by a coherent maximum in total column water and by a comma-shaped precipitation structure with the heaviest rainfall to the northwest of the circulation centre. The Borneo vortex comprises a low-level cyclonic circulation and a mid-level wave embedded in the background easterly shear flow, which strengthens with height up to around 7 km. Despite being in the tropics at 6∘ N, the low-level vortex and mid-level wave are well represented by SGT balance dynamics. The mid-level wave propagates along a vertical gradient in moist stability, i.e. the product between the specific humidity and the static stability, at 4.5 to 5 km and is characterised by a coherent signature in the potential vorticity, meridional wind, and balanced vertical velocity fields. The vertical motion is dominated by coupling with diabatic heating and is shifted relative to the potential vorticity so that the diabatic wave propagates westwards, relative to the flow, at a rate consistent with prediction from moist semi-geostrophic theory. Initial vortex development at low levels is consistent with baroclinic growth initiated by the mid-level diabatic Rossby wave, which propagates on baroclinic shear flow on the southern flank of a large-scale cold surge.

В настоящей статье рассматриваются вопросы мотивации сотрудников правоохранительных органов как особого вида государственной службы. Представлен литературный обзор, связанный с исследованием вопросов мотивации западными и отечественными учеными. Мотивация государственной службы рассматривается как предрасположенность сотрудников реагировать на мотивы, исключительно в интересах служения в государственных и правоохранительных органах. В основе исследования лежит конфиденциальный онлайн опрос, проведенный в 2021 году. В опросе приняли участие 120 сотрудников разного уровня (21.7%-руководящий состав, 78,3% -рядовые). Целью исследования является изучение уровня мотивации сотрудников правоохранительных органов и определение основных факторов, оказывающих влияние на нее в организации «X». На основе исследования сделаны выводы о степени удовлетворенности своей работой и уровне готовности служить обществу государственных служащих, в том числе сотрудников правоохранительных органов. Наряду с этим, выявлены факторы, влияющие на внутреннюю, немонетарную мотивацию для службы в государственных учреждениях в целом, и правоохранительных органах, в частности. Вместе с тем, авторами даны предложения для дальнейшего изучения развития немонетарной мотивации как на государственной службе в целом, так и в правоохранительных органах.

This article deals with the issues of motivation of law enforcement officers as a special type of public service in Kazakhstan. The paper presents a literature review related to the study of motivation issues by foreign and domestic scientists. Civil service motivation is seen as the predisposition of employees to respond to motives, solely in the interests of serving in government and law enforcement agencies. The research is based on a confidential online survey conducted in 2021. The survey involved 120 employees at different levels (21.7 per cent of the respondent were managers, 78.3 per cent of them were personnel). The aim of the study was to examine the level of motivation of law enforcement officers and to identify the main factors influencing on it in one of the organizations named as X. Based on the survey the authors concluded the degree of satisfaction with their work and the level of readiness to serve society of public servants, including law enforcement officers. Along with this, the factors influencing the internal, non-monetary motivation for service in public institutions in general, and law enforcement agencies, in particular, were identified. At the same time, the authors give suggestions for further study of the development of non-monetary motivation both in public service and in law enforcement agencies as well.
Community Awareness about Cerebrovascular Stroke in Surat City: A Cross-Sectional Survey
Authors: Bachkaniwala Aparna , Ramanandi Vivek
Published: November 2023

Background: Cerebrovascular stroke (CVS) is one of the commonest causes of disability worldwide. Community awareness regarding causes, disabilities, treatment interventions, course, and prognosis of CVS is crucial in improving care and rehabilitation as well as reducing burden of disease on the society and nation. The study was undertaken to assess the level of awareness regarding CVS and relevant aspects among community dwelling individuals of Surat city in Gujarat, India.
Methodology: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 135 normal healthy individuals residing in the urban area of Surat city in the month of November 2022. A pre-tested questionnaire with 20 questions assessing the awareness regarding CVS was circulated among the individuals and responses received were evaluated.
Results: The mean age of the study group was 49.9 years and 57.80% of the respondents were males.
While majority of the participants (60.40%) had moderate to good knowledge regarding stroke, most of the participants, i.e., 53.9% did not know how to respond in case of emergency when they suspect that a person is having CVS. 42.60% of the participants who had knowledge about stroke reported that they received their knowledge when one of their known relatives were affected by CVS and out of all the participants, 78.80% chose that they would like to receive education regarding CVS stroke through healthcare professional and using social media platforms.
Conclusion: Community dwelling health adults of Surat city have moderate to good awareness regarding CVS and most of the surveyed people reported that they want to receive knowledge regarding CVS. This prevailing scenario shows that creating awareness about significant neurological condition among community can help progress health services for diseased and shall be prioritized to improve quality of healthcare for all.

Introduction: Low back pain and obesity are growing public health concerns that are attracting global attention with affectation of quality of life of many patients. Obesity has been considered to be associated with increased risk of many non-communicable medical conditions including low back pain. There is need therefore to assess the relationship between obesity and low back pain among adult patients at the general out-patient clinic of a tertiary hospital in Makurdi.
Method: A hospital-based cross-sectional study conducted among 392 patients aged 18 years and above at the General Outpatient Clinic of Benue State University Teaching Hospital, Makurdi. The participants were selected by systematic random sampling. Their socio-demographics, relevant low back pain history, Body Mass Index and Waist-Hip-Ratio were collected via a pre-tested, interviewer-administered questionnaire. Data were analysed with the Statistical Package for Social Sciences.
Results: The proportion of those with obesity was 25.3% and low back pain was 62%. Obesity had statistically significant association with low back pain; and together with age, marital status, level of education and occupation, were the independent predictors of low back pain.
Conclusion: More than 60% of the participants had low back pain and about a quarter were obese. Obesity was an independent predictor of low back pain. Primary care physicians should increase efforts at counselling patients on obesity and other predictors of low back pain.

The Effectiveness of Clinical Pilates in Adults with Chronic Low Back Pain
Authors: Eleftherios Paraskevopoulos
Published: November 2023

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is one of the most common causes of functional impairments and disability, and the Pilates method has recently become a popular form of exercise for individuals undergoing rehabilitation. The effects of the Pilates approach in people with CLBP have been studied in several published researches. The purpose of this systematic review was to assess the effectiveness of Pilates method in pain, functionality, balance, flexibility and Quality of life (Qol), in adults with CLBP. A search for English Randomized Control Trials (RCTs) was undertaken using medical phrases and keywords for “Pilates” and “low back pain”, within the last decade, in the PubMed database. One reviewer was involved in the selection of evidence, and from the 42 studies that emerged, 10 RCTs were included satisfying the eligibility criteria. A methodological quality assessment was also performed, using the PEDro scale and the mean score of the included RCTS was 6,7. The systematic review’s findings indicated that a Pilates exercise programme as a rehabilitation, compared to no other intervention, in patients with CLBP or NSCLBP, results in short-term, statistically significant improvements in pain and functionality. The data supporting its effects in balance, flexibility and Qol are quite limited, as well as, the evidence regarding the superiority of the Pilates compared to other forms of physical exercise, are unclear. There are also, presented the limitations of this study and of the RCTs included in this systematic review. Overall, Pilates method has a greater improvement in pain and functional ability. Future studies should be conducted to support also the evidence about the positive effects of Pilates exercise in balance, flexibility and Qol, as well as, to examine the superiority of Pilates exercise compare to other forms of exercise.

Shoulder injuries are common in volleyball athletes. Although, research has shown the incidence of in-season shoulder injuries in this population, less is known about the ability of field-based tests to predict them. The purpose of this study was to examine whether assessment of dynamic balance and throwing accuracy performance of competitive volleyball athletes can predict in-season shoulder injuries. Thirty-nine volleyball athletes underwent dynamic balance assessment of the upper and lower extremities at the start of the season using the Y-Balance and Upper Quarter Y-Balance (UQYB) test, respectively. Furthermore, throwing accuracy was also examined using the Functional Throwing Performance Index (FTPI) test. Data collected at the end of the season were: injury, side and type of injury. Binomial logistic regression was conducted to ascertain whether the predictor variables could predict shoulder injury during in-season competition. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to determine the cut-off scores for the statistically significant predictor variables. Twelve athletes sustained a shoulder injury during the season. From the five predictor variables, the Y-Balance Medial (p<0.05) and the UQYB Medial (p<0.05) were able to predict shoulder injuries with statistical significance. From calculating the Odds Ratios, this study found that those who scored less than the cut-off score on the Y-Balance Medial (117.6 cm) and the UQYB Medial (119.15 cm) were 2 and 1.6 times more likely to get injured in the shoulder complex, respectively. This study showed that the combination of upper and lower limb dynamic balance was able to predict in-season shoulder injuries.

Published: November 2023

Objective: To understand the various factors that lead to genu recurvatum post stroke and their management and gait rehabilitation for stroke patients.
Method: This is an exploratory study. Five patients were recruited for the study based on inclusion criteria. Pre and post-test examination were taken by Wisconsin Gait Scale (WGS) and on standardized assessment for genu recurvatum along with pre and post- radiographs of hyper extended knee. A customized physiotherapy program was given to each patient.
Results: There is no statistical analysis because of different factors contributing to genu recurvatum post stroke and their intervention is customized accordingly. As a result only depend on Wisconsin Gait Analysis and Roentgenogram. The results showed that the degree of knee hyperextension changes occur in pre and post analysis.
Conclusions: The findings of this study indicate that a customized physiotherapy program may be more effective in hyperextension of knee in stance phase of gait in hemiparesis

Published: November 2023

This research in-depth discusses aspects of grammatical cohesion in the thesis abstracts of Indonesian Language and Literature program students at Semarang State University. The focus of the analysis lies in how students use grammatical cohesion to organize and connect ideas in their abstracts. The research method involves careful analysis of students' abstract texts, with emphasis on the use of pronouns, conjunctions, substitutions, and ellipsis. Through a qualitative descriptive approach, this research aims to identify patterns of use of grammatical cohesion in abstract contexts and evaluate its impact on the clarity and consistency of the information conveyed. The results showed variations in the level of mastery of grammatical cohesion among students. Some abstracts highlight a good understanding of the use of pronouns and conjunctions to form logical relationships between ideas, while others show a tendency towards less use of ellipsis grammatical cohesion. These findings can provide valuable insight into how students apply grammatical cohesion in the context of their thesis abstracts. The implications of this research can support the development of more effective learning strategies in improving students' academic writing skills in the field of Indonesian Language and Literature.

Bureaucratic simplification is one of the focuses of the 5 Priorities of the Advanced Indonesian Cabinet under the leadership of President Joko Widodo and Ma'ruf Amin for the 2019-2024 period. The bureaucratic simplification stage consists of three stages, namely simplifying the organizational structure to 2 levels, equalizing administrative/structural positions into functional positions, and adjusting the work system. The bureaucratic simplification is expected to create a dynamic, agile, and professional bureaucracy in supporting public service performance and can have a positive impact on employee performance. However, after the implementation of this policy, several reactions needed to be in line with expectations, especially in terms of employee job satisfaction. In this study, bureaucratic simplification is described by an organizational change in the government sector, with a research locus at The Ministry of Industry of The Republic of Indonesia. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of organizational change on employee performance through job satisfaction. Data collection was carried out by questionnaire using Google form. The questionnaire results were processed using Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) using SmartPLS 4.0 software. The results of this study indicate that organizational change has a direct effect on job satisfaction. Job satisfaction has a direct effect on employee performance. However, organizational change has no direct effect on organizational performance. Organizational change can affect employee performance through the mediation of job satisfaction.
