IMPLEMENTASI FATWA MPU ACEH NO. 9 TAHUN 2013 PADA PERUSAHAAN TAMBANG DI PROVINSI ACEH
Authors: Ariful Mufti
Published: July 2023

Aceh as one of the provinces in Indonesia which is famous for its area that stipulates Islamic law as a whole in all aspects, be it the relationship between humans and with Allah SWT. This is evidenced by the existence of special sharia rules or called Qanun set by the MPU. These rules must of course be accompanied by appropriate practices, not limited to a single product. The practice in question is, carrying out all kinds of rules that have been established as a society with the application of applicable law. The implementation of zakat has encountered many obstacles because it is still not followed by an adequate level of understanding on how to implement zakat. The lack of understanding of the types of assets that are obligatory on zakat and the payment mechanism guided by Islamic law causes the implementation of zakat worship to be highly dependent on each individual. The type of research that the writer uses is descriptive qualitative research with the method of case studies (case studies) and field studies (field research). In this study, the authors conducted a study directly in the field to obtain concrete data regarding the preparation for mining zakat in Aceh. The research approach that will be used in this paper is a normative juridical approach and an empirical juridical approach. The rules regarding zakat in Aceh itself are certainly sufficient, especially on mining zakat, as written in Aceh Qanun Number 10 of 2012, but the practice of enforcing Qanuns faced by the current government is still the main factor in hampering the process of collecting and distributing zakat. there are still many groups who think that zakat on mining goods is the same as trade zakat, which is then paid by the company when it reaches the haul. As for the mining zakat itself, scholars have ordered that your haul is not set.

Otomotiv sektöründe faaliyet gösteren firmaların maliyet girdi odaklı etkinlik analizi
Authors: BARDİ Şenol
Published: June 2023

Çalışmanın amacı, otomotiv sektöründe faaliyet gösteren firmaların girdi odaklı veri zarflama analizi yöntemi ile firma etkinliklerinin belirlenmesinde rolü olan maliyet girdi değişkenlerinin tespit edilmesidir. BİST metal eşya makine elektrikli cihazlar ve ulaşım araçları sektöründe yer alan 14 firmanın dört yıllık mali tablolarında yer alan verilerden faydalanılarak firmaların maliyet yönetim etkinlikleri ölçülmeye çalışılmıştır. Etkinliklerin tespitinde Veri Zarflama Analizi yöntemi (VZA) kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada girdi odaklı ölçeğe göre sabit getiri modeli (CCR) tercih edilmiştir. Ayrıca firmaların zamana dayalı olarak etkinliklerindeki değişimi görmek için VZA tabanlı Malmquist Toplam Faktör Verimliliği (MTFV) Endeksi yaklaşımı da kullanılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre MTFV indeksi bileşenleri olan Teknik Etkinlikteki Değişimde (TED) %1,8; Ölçek Etkinlik Değişiminde (ÖED) %1,5; Teknoloji Değişiminde (TD) % 5,9 oranında azalma tespit edilmiştir. 2016-2021 döneminde firmalar %1,8 kaynak israfında bulunmuşlardır. Ölçek etkinliğindeki azalma, firmaların varlıklarını verimli kullanamadıkları anlamına gelmektedir. 2016-2021 döneminde firmaların yıllık ortalama verimlilik kaybı %7,6 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Teknoloji değişimindeki azalma, verimlilik kaybının asıl nedenini oluşturduğu görülmüştür. 2019-2020 dönemi hariç dört dönemde de verimlilik kayıpları yaşanmıştır. TFV’nin en düşük (%15,1) düzeyde yaşandığı dönem 2016-2017 dönemi olmuş; 2019-2020 döneminde verimlilik artışı ise %4,8 olarak gerçekleşmiştir. Otomotiv sektörü firmalarının etkinliklerinin belirlenmesinde maliyet girdi değişkeni olarak kullanılan pazarlama satış ve dağıtım giderleri ile finansman giderleri oranlarının düşük düzeyde olması firmaların etkinlik sağlamalarında rolü olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.

A Study on the notation of Gishiwajinden and Ancient Japanese: From the Perspective of Notation Centered on 蘇 and 奴
Authors:   Global Knowledge and Convergence Association, Kim Younghwa
Published: June 2023

The purpose of this paper is to more clearly understand the phonology of Wajinden through comparison with ancient Korean and Japanese materials. The subjects of the study were 蘇 and 奴, which have different phonetic values from ancient Japanese materials among the phonetic transcriptions shown in the Wajinden. As for the research method, the phonetic values of 蘇 and 奴 shown in the Wajinden were examined through the estimated Old Chinese phonology, the Fanqie(反切) in a Rhyme Dictionary(韻書), the phonetic values by scholars, and the examples of ancient Korean and Japanese materials.
As a conclusion of the study, it was found that 蘇 and 奴 shown in the Wajinden are the markers for the syllables of [sa] and [na]. In Wajinden, 蘇 is a notation for the syllable of [sa さ], and all of them were used as national names. In ancient Japanese sources, 蘇 represents the sound of [so ソ].
As a result of the study of 蘇, first, the phonetic value of the estimated Old Chinese phonology was divided into [sa] and [so], and the phonetic value estimated through the Fanqie(反切) in a Rhyme Dictionary(韻書) was [so]. However, since the sound values shown in a Rhyme Dictionary(韻書) is in Middle-Old Chinese phonology, the authenticity is questionable. second, through the place names and names of people in Goguryeo and Baekje, the corresponding relationship of 蘇：斯：史：泗：所 is established, and it is read as [sa]. Considering these points, it can be said that 蘇 represents the sound value of [sa].
In addition, there are 16 examples of the use of 奴, which can be found in Wajinden, and all refer to proper nouns such as the name of an official position or the name of a country. Among them, only one usage shows the sound value of [nu ぬ], and the remaining 15 usage examples show the sound value of [na な]. In ancient Japanese sources, the sound values of [nuヌ, noノ, doド] are indicated.
As a result of consideration, first, as with 蘇, the estimated upper ancient sound of 奴 is divided into [nu] and [na], and the phonetic value estimated through the Fanqie(反切) in a Rhyme Dictionary(韻書) and Ōno's indication was [no], but the time of compilation of a Rhyme Dictionary(韻書) is Middle-Old Chinese phonology. second, the corresponding relationship between 奴=那=弩=內=儒 and 奴=那 can be confirmed through the geographical names and five tribes in the SamgukSagi. third, it was confirmed that 奴 represents the sound value of [na] in the name notation of Nihonsyoki. Through this fact, the sound value of 奴 can be read as [na].

Review on the Role of Agricultural Extension Service on Increasing Farm Productivity in Ethiopia
Authors: Argaw Birhanu , Yehuala Kalkidan , Aschalew Alelign
Published: June 2023

Improving farm productivity either through introduction of modern technologies or by increasing agricultural extension services is vital. Agricultural extension is the primary mechanism that increases agricultural production. Therefore, reviewing the role of agricultural extension on increasing farm productivity has been interesting issue. Cognizant of this fact, reviewing the role of agricultural extension in increasing farm productivity is an important issue for policy makers in order to improve productivity. Consequently, this seminar was aimed to provide information on the role of agricultural extension in increasing farm productivity and to review agricultural extension constraints in Ethiopia. The review shows that agricultural extension service had positive and significant role on increasing farm productivity by increasing the farmer’s knowhow on agronomic practices such as pest and disease control and adoption of improved seed varieties as well as soil and water conservation technologies. On the other hand, the review reveals that weak interaction; low participation, lack of technical skills, missed use of services, the weak link of research extension, a lack of incentives, and a lack of suitable adaptation to technologies constrain the extension system across the country. Thus, based on the review the following recommendations are forwarded. Extension services should be increase to farmers by the government agents especially by district agriculture development unit, and NGO’s to assist farmers to have easy access to extension so as to increase farm productivity. In addition, to increase the current working conditions of extension agents, including transportation, housing, and proper budget allocation, the government should adopt a very responsible and practical approach.

Published: July 2023

This descriptive quantitative study examined the academic integrity of the college students at St. Paul University Surigao, particularly in the new normal. The main instruments used to solicit information were validated researcher-made questionnaires administered to the 19 college teachers and 433 college students who taught and enrolled respectively at St. Paul University Surigao during the academic year 2021-2022. Stratified random sampling was employed to determine these participants. Data gathered were analyzed using the means, standard deviation, t-test, and Analysis of Variance. Both college teachers and students themselves perceived that college students have high levels of academic integrity in the new normal, especially in terms of honesty, trust, respect, responsibility, fairness, and courageousness, all as they engaged in their flexible learning classes. Hence, the Paulinian Remote Flexible Learning scheme of St. Paul University Surigao is deemed effective in promoting quality education ensuring the sustenance of the inculcation of the Paulinian core values in the new normal alongside the promotion and strengthening of the fundamental values and indicators of academic integrity. The perceived level of academic integrity of college students also does not differ when they are grouped according to sex and age. However, there is a significant difference in the perceived level of academic integrity of college students in terms of course, particularly when talking about responsibility, fairness, and courage. Also, there is a significant difference in the perceived level of academic integrity of college students in terms of year level, particularly when talking about fairness. The school administrators may continue orienting both students and teachers regarding the essence of academic integrity and why is it important to embody academic integrity even challenged by the changing times and that implementing limited face-to-face classes for all course programs should now be considered following the minimum health protocols and standards in order to lessen the possibility of academic dishonesty caused by remote online classes in the pandemic era.
Extradition and State Responsibilities on the Protection of Rights of Requested Persons
Authors: Hanson Dr. Michael D. , Akpabio Dr. Amanim , Akpabio Amanim
Published: June 2023

In recent time, the world has experienced an unprecedented upsurge of emerging national, transnational and international crimes perpetrated by individuals and groups. Perpetrators of these crimes sometimes escape to another country and evade immediate arrest, detention, prosecution, conviction, sentence and/ or punishment. Nonetheless, such individuals are sometimes formally surrendered to the requesting state, where the crimes were committed, upon request made to the requested state for their return through extradition in accordance with extradition laws. These laws place responsibilities on the requesting and requested states regarding the protection of rights of requested persons. This work examines state responsibilities for the protection of rights of requested persons. Using the doctrinal methodology, this work found that many state parties typically fail in their responsibilities to protect the rights of requested persons, which results in the violation of those rights. The work recommends strengthening of extradition laws on the protection of rights of requested persons by state parties; provision of clear penalties on involved states; establishment and strengthening of a realistic enforcement mechanism against involved states and provision of compensation for requested persons where their rights are violated.
Between Policy Goals and Actual Outcome: An Assessment of the National Disaster Management Framework in Nigeria, 2010-2020
Authors: ADEFISOYE Taiwo O. , ADEOYE Julius O. , ONABANJO Leke K.
Published: June 2023

In Nigeria, research on disaster management has witnessed tremendous attention in recent years. However, no known study has directly assessed the country’s main disaster management policy framework. Introduced in 2010 to replace the National Disaster Response Plan, the National Disaster Management Framework (NDMF) represents Nigeria’s attempt to depart from a response-driven system to a proactive and comprehensive one within its federal political structure having three levels of government. In assessing the Framework, two sets of criteria were used. The first is in line with its pre-determined goals while the second set was drawn from the ecological context of the Framework. Data for the study were generated from both primary and secondary sources. In-depth interviews were conducted with two senior officials of the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA); and General Managers of the State Emergency Management Agency of Oyo, Ekiti, Lagos, Osun, and Ogun States. Besides, the NDMF and other secondary materials were read and critically reviewed to generate secondary data. Findings show that despite over a decade since its introduction, the NDMF has not been able to engender the realization of a holistic disaster management system in the country. Rather, it generated rivalry among government agencies assigned to manage disasters. The perceived alienation of many stakeholders especially at the State level in its formulation process; poor funding and lack of political will to execute the provisions of the Framework are notable causes. Knowing the importance of a policy framework in actualizing the goals of disaster management, the paper recommends that stakeholders in the country, especially those at the state and local government levels should be repositioned to play more active roles in the operationalization and implementation of the NDMF.

The objective of this paper is to investigate diverse aspects of sex trafficking, encompassing its etiology, implications on survivors, and societal consequences. The paper additionally examines the obstacles involved in tackling sex trafficking, including insufficient awareness, legal structures, and efficacious interventions. The intended societal outcome of this research paper is to increase awareness regarding the issue of sex trafficking, which is frequently disregarded and neglected. The present study sheds light on the predicament of individuals who have fallen prey to trafficking and advocates for the implementation of efficacious measures by policymakers, practitioners, and other stakeholders to ameliorate the circumstances of the victims, curtail the likelihood of trafficking among women and children, and ultimately thwart this criminal activity. This study makes a valuable contribution to policy-making endeavors aimed at mitigating sex trafficking and enhancing the safeguarding of its victims.
Combatting Almajiri System in Nigeria: Public Knowledge and Perception on the Role of Communication
Authors: Osuagwu Titilayo Remilekun , Gero Garba
Published: June 2023

This investigated contributions that an amalgam of communication genres could play in combating the age-long trade, pseudo, religious practice known as almajiranci or Tsangaya system in North-West Nigeria. The study draws insight from the fact that the conservative attitude among residents of Kano has limited the influence of the various media used to advocate for radical reorientation and behavioural change in the study area. Chief among the objectives of the study was to find out if the residents knew about the problem, to what extent, causes whether or not the residents knew the role of communication as a factor that could combat the menace. The communication function theory foregrounds the study. It utilised the mixed methods design where qualitative and quantitative data were generated using interviews and copiesof the questionnaire. Six(6) respondents were interviewed in the first phase of the research. In the second phase, four hundred (400) copies of the questionnaire were administered across the six local governments that made up the Kano metropolis, namely Kano Municipal, Fagge, Nassarawa, Dala, Tarauni and Kumbotso, using a combination of purposive and quota sampling. The study found that the residents had high knowledge of the existence of Almajiranchi practice, they mentioned poverty, illiteracy, love of Islamic scholarship, divorce, and the quest for self-discipline as some of the reasons for the prevalence of the practice and they perceived communication, especially the mixed-communication genre/integrated genre, as having the suitability for combatting the menace. Itwas therefore recommended that parents prioritise the well beings of their children and also call for the need to involve communication professionals in designing messages that are geared towards attitude change.

Concepts of Domestic Space and the New Family in Rabbit Hole and Clybourne Park
Authors: Gul Sinan
Published: June 2023

This article examines two modern American plays, Rabbit Hole (2006) by David Lindsay-Abaire and Clybourne Park (2010) by Bruce Norris, in order to demonstrate the changing characteristics of domestic spaces. These plays depict the ways in which characters’ identities and familial dynamics are influenced by disruptions to their home lives, shifts in representations of femininity, the decline of patriarchy, and the generation gap. Although domestic dramas are often criticized for perpetuating negative stereotypes about women, these plays challenge these perceptions in several ways. The families depicted in both plays are white, heterosexual, and relatively affluent, and while they may conform to societal norms in terms of race, sexuality, and wealth, they still reflect changes in power dynamics within contemporary American society. These families have become a site for social progress and a symbol of the weakening of patriarchal structures. This trend is slow but steady, offering insight into the evolving dynamics of family values and gender roles, and providing a clear picture of the ongoing changes within families. Both plays address a variety of issues that contemporary American families face, from dysfunctionality to communication breakdowns, and offer innovative solutions while presenting a different family structure than that of previous generations.
The Journey to Dialogic Self in Doris Lessing’s The Golden Notebook and The Diary of a Good Neighbour
Authors: Çün Başak
Published: June 2023

The Golden Notebook (1962) and The Diary of a Good Neighbour (1983) by Doris Lessing are two novels providing insight into the perceptions of their protagonists, Anna and Janna, regarding life and self. When approached from the dialogic standpoint of Russian linguist and literary theorist Mikhail M. Bakhtin, both novels are notable with respect to the conflicts they issue between the self as a monologic outcome of life experiences, and the necessity felt for moving towards a dialogic conceptualization of self, and hence, of life. While addressing the one-sided observation an individual performs in the way she understands her self and surroundings, the novels carry a scrutinizing aspect to the psychological and social impacts of this monologic demeanor. This paper reveals how, in Lessing’s two novels, Bakhtin’s dialogic principle, and based on this, a concept of dialogic self is applicable. Analyzing the protagonists’ relations with their selves, it argues that their monologic interactions with the self and the world evolve into living, dialogic ones fed by their new perceptions.

Published: July 2023

A adoção das tecnologias digitais pelos idosos é um assunto complexo, que envolve aspectos afetivos e psicossociais que favorecem ou não o uso dessas tecnologias. São escassas as teorias educativas voltadas para os idosos e é preciso reconhecer a capacidade de aprendizagem e a criação de propostas pedagógicas a fim de impulsionarem reflexão sobre o processo ensino-aprendizagem desta população.  O uso do storytelling ou ‘contação de histórias’ é uma estratégia utilizada para promover a qualidade de vida, através de trocas de experiências vividas, promovendo assim Educação em Saúde. O objetivo do estudo foi relatar as experiências vivenciadas através do uso do storytelling enquanto ferramenta de promoção da Educação em Saúde. A metodologia utilizada foi relato de experiência, baseado na atuação da autora com um grupo de idosas de uma Instituição de Longa Permanência de Idosos (ILPI) de Fortaleza-Ceará. Os encontros aconteceram uma vez por semana, no primeiro semestre de 2022. Como resultado do referido estudo tem-se que o uso do storytelling deu-se pelo fato de tratar-se de uma atividade que instrui, amplia vocabulário, ajuda no desenvolvimento psicológico e moral e auxilia no desenvolvimento da linguagem, pensamento e cognição. Conclui-se que uso dessa ferramenta como estratégia de Educação em Saúde foi eficaz em relação aos momentos de troca de experiências e aprendizagem. É necessário ampliar as competências digitais dos idosos através de ações de Educação em Saúde voltadas à educação digital desse estrato, com estratégias técnicas e metodológicas, de forma a melhor engajar estes na sociedade cada vez mais tecnológica.
Transformation of Mathematical Model for Complex Object in Form of Interval Difference Equations to a Differential Equation
Authors: Dyvak Mykola , Pasichnyk Roman , Melnyk Andriy , Dyvak Andriy , Otoo Frank
Published: July 2023

Mathematical models of complex objects in the form of interval difference equations are built on the basis of the obtained experimental interval data within the limits of the inductive approach. At the same time, interpretation of physical properties of the object on the base of such model is complex enough. A method of transformation of a mathematical model in the form of interval differential equations was proposed in the article. The proposed method is based on the formulas for representing the values of the function at the node of the difference grid in the Taylor series in the neighborhood of the base node, as well as the differential representation of the derivatives in the same neighborhood. The developed approach creates opportunities for the identification of interval models of complex objects based on the analysis of interval data with further interpretation of the physical properties of the modeled object according to the classical scheme.

There is an increasing demand from consumers for natural and minimally processed foods. Therefore, developing and producing effective natural antimicrobial substances for food preservation is of great interest. This work aimed to investigate the effect of growth conditions on the maximum activity of antibacterial substances production by Lactiplantibacillus sp. NCL33 from Nem chua, a traditional fermented meat. The results revealed that the antibacterial substances exhibited a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The antibacterial activity of NCL33 was optimized with MRS broth supplemented with 20 g/L glucose. The suitable nitrogen source for antibacterial biosynthesis was yeast extract with a concentration of 25 g/L. Moreover, the inoculated temperature and initial pH significantly influenced the antimicrobial activity. The maximum antimicrobial activity of NCL33 was obtained at 30°C and pH 7,0.
