Inability Formulation of Perpetrators to Pay Restitution to Children Victims of Sexual Exploitation
Authors: Marinda Rezha , Endrawati Lucky , Sulistio Faizin
Published: September 2022

This study aims to determine, analyze, and formulate whether the State can pay off restitution that cannot be paid by the perpetrators to children who are victims of the crime of sexual exploitation; and formulate the formulation of provisions regarding the provision of compensation to children victims of the crime of sexual exploitation who cannot obtain restitution because the perpetrator is unable to pay in order to comply with the principles of non-discrimination. This study is an example of normative legal research, employing a statutory and conceptual approach. In this study, the author employs a systematic and theological interpretation approach to the analysis of legal materials. According to the findings of the study, the State could compensate criminals for their inability to pay restitution by providing them with a nominal sum of money. However, this compensation is only available for heinous human rights violations and acts of terrorism. In addition to gross human rights violations and terrorism, this has led to new problems, including injustice for victims, particularly children who are victims of sexual exploitation, who do not receive compensation because the perpetrators cannot pay them.
Ideological-Epistemological Aspects of Mirzo Babur’s Worldview
Authors: A. Gafurov Bakhromjon
Published: September 2022

This article discusses the ideological and epistemological aspects of Mirzo Babur’s worldview. It can be seen that Mirzo Babur solved the main problem of philosophy from an objective, religious-theological point of view. This worldview also applies to most medieval thinkers, especially those close to him in terms of period and region. From this, we can conclude that this objective idealistic religious-theological dogmatic outlook of Mirzo Babur was based on the principle of consistent, strict idealistic monism.

As manifestações clínicas da doença são bastante variáveis; nas formas agudas com dor torácica, pode se manifestar de modo similar à dor anginosa, com achados semelhantes aos de uma síndrome coronariana aguda, incluindo alterações no eletrocardiograma e elevação dos marcadores de necrose miocárdica. O relato a seguir descreve um caso de um jovem previamente hígido, com abertura de doença de Graves através de um quadro de miopericardite aguda. Por essa ser uma associação muito rara faz-se extremamente necessário um estudo minucioso de situações como a descrita neste relato.
Cultivation of Rhodotorula Toruloides Using Palm Oil Mill Effluent: Effect on the Growth, Lipid Production, and Waste Removal
Authors: Justine Ignatia , Wei Lie Chin Grace Joy , Lym Yong Wilson Thau , Misson Mailin
Published: September 2022

Using Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) as a medium for culturing oleaginous yeast is advantageous for simultaneous lipid production and waste removal. The organic compounds in POME can be utilised as a nutrient source for yeast growth. Rhodotorula toruloides yeast was cultivated in filtered and unfiltered raw POME as growth media in this study. The yeast growth, pH changes in media, lipid production and removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) of Rhodotorula toruloides cultivated in POME were examined and compared to Rhodotorula toruloides grown in yeast peptone dextrose (YPD) control media. The COD level of filtered POME was reduced by nearly 50% after filtration. The biomass concentration of Rhodotorula toruloides in filtered POME surpassed the other media in the following order: filtered POME > YPD > unfiltered POME (152 mg/ml > 121 mg/ml > 37 mg/ml). The filtered POME was found favourable for yeast growth due to the minimal amount of colloidal particles and suspended solids. Meanwhile, the lipid production (4.51 %) in filtered POME was 4.8-fold higher than in control media. The water analysis indicated about 43% of COD reduction, signifying the ability of Rhodotorula toruloides to utilise nutrient components present in POME for growth. This study provides insightful knowledge on the utilisation of oleaginous yeast for simultaneous green waste disposal and sustainable microbial oil production.
The Relationship Between Bangladesh’s Financial Development, Exchange Rates, and Stock Market Capitalization: An Empirical Study Using the NARDL Model and Machine Learning
Authors: Parvin Rehana
Published: September 2022

This research looks at the interplay between financial development, exchange rates, and the stock market in Bangladesh from 1995 to 2019 and employs the Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NARDL) model. The machine learning technique uses the iterative classifier optimizer to beat other classifiers in stock market capitalization prediction. According to our NARDL findings, changes in financial development and exchange rates positively impact stock market capitalization in Bangladesh. Negative changes in financial development and the currency rate, on the other hand, have mixed long-term and short-term consequences for the stock market. The dynamic multiplier graphs show that the response of the stock market capitalization to positive changes in financial development and exchange rates is nearly comparable to the response to negative changes. According to the Wald test, there are asymmetries among variables. We urge governments to remove barriers to development, upgrade infrastructure, expand the stock market’s capacity, and restore market participants’ confidence in the Bangladesh stock market.

Authors: Baccay Kenny-Lynn B. , Ngaya-an Floreliz V. , Marinduque Bernabe R.
Published: September 2022

Introduction. Teen pregnancy in the Philippines is a public health concern. Contraception is viewed as key in controlling teen pregnancy brought by early sexual initiation. Unfortunately, among sexually active teenage girls, 68.7% are not using any form of contraception.Objectives. The study determined the predictors of Family Planning practice among teen mothers in Manila;specifically, regarding knowledge and attitude towards family planning, and social and informational support.Methods. The study utilized a descriptive correlational design. Purposive sampling was used for a target sample size of 188 teenage mothers from the City of Manila. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data. Multiple regression was employed to determine predictors of FP practice.Results. Of the 163 teenage mothers who participated, less than one-third (30.7%) were currently using a familyplanning method. Teen mothers who had two or more pregnancies were four times more likely to report FP practice, and those who received informational support on FP were six times more likely to report FP practice.

Conclusion. The rate of FP practice among teen mothers is low. A comprehensive assessment of the physical, psychosocial, and environmental factors that impact teen mothers should be further studied.

Authors: Nisperos Gene A. , Castro Mary Christine R. , Balahadia-Mortel Ana Pholyn A. , Gavino Cherylle G. , Cagayan Maria Stephanie Fay S.
Published: September 2022

Introduction. Implementation of Basic Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care (BEmONC) aims to curb maternal mortality. However, the Philippines failed to significantly reduce the maternal mortality rate (MMR) targeted in the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Currently, the country is still far from the targeted Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This review describes the historical development of BEmONC in the Philippines over the past 13 years and provides insights on its role in decreasing MMR. Methods. We searched online for journal articles, publications, reports, policies, and other issuances related toBEmONC and maternal health in the Philippines. We accessed updates and data via correspondence with theDepartment of Health (DOH). Statistics were compiled from public databases. The identified citations were screened, appraised, synthesized, and analyzed in a historical approach.  Results. A direct result of the Emergency Obstetric Care Approach, BEmONC was developed to respond to the high MMR in the Philippines, in line with global efforts to improve maternal health. However, BEmONC functionality generally remained inadequate.

Conclusions. Although the provision of BEmONC services increased facility-based deliveries and skilled birth attendance during childbirth, this failed to decrease MMR and achieve targeted goals substantially. Further capacity-building is needed, especially in rural and resource-poor areas. Government issuances at the national and local levels should be aligned to complement each other. There should be a health systems approach that considers the building blocks of an efficient health care system and the social determinants that impact them.
Average Treatment Effects of a Single-dose Antenatal Corticosteroid on the Respiratory Morbidity of Filipino Preterm Neonates
Authors: Sy Alvin Duke R. , Asaad Abubakar S.
Published: September 2022

Introduction. Prematurity-related respiratory disorders are an important public health concern that should betreated efficiently and effectively. Antenatal corticosteroid (ACS) therapy has been recommended to hasten fetallung maturation in pregnancies at risk but has not been delivered adequately in low to middle-income countries. This study aimed to estimate the treatment effects associated with the use of a single-dose antenatal corticosteroid on the incidence of respiratory-associated morbidity among prematurely delivered neonates.Methods. This was a retrospective cohort study of neonates delivered at 24 to 33 weeks gestation at a tertiaryhospital comparing outcomes in those given single-dose ACS with those given no ACS. Association was estimated using logistic and propensity score (PS) analyses, as well as average treatment effect (ATE) and among those treated (ATET).Results. Most neonates (78.11%) received a single dose before delivery (single-dose ACS group) and only a few(21.89%) did not receive any dose (no ACS dose group). The odds ratio of respiratory morbidity in the single-dose ACS group was 0.44 (0.23-0.84) from an adjusted logistic regression model and 0.33 (0.17-0.80) from the PS matching model. The latter model was used to estimate that the average treatment effect from a single-ACS dose on the entire sample was -0.09 (-0.03 to -0.15), while its effect among the actual recipients was -0.08 (-0.02 to -0.15).Conclusion. There is a small benefit attributed to the single-dose ACS, reinforcing the need for dose administration and completion. Future studies are recommended to clarify the estimated association and improve on the methodological constraints encountered.
Perspectives on Maternal and Child Health: The Need to Revisit Primary Health Care
Authors: Balahadia-Mortel Ana Pholyn A. , Nisperos Gene A.
Published: September 2022

Maternal morbidity and mortality remain major global concerns in developing and underdeveloped countries.Various international interventions have been made over the last 50 years but with essentially the same targetsand indicators. This review traced the development of programs on maternal and child health based on major global policies, from the 1978 Declaration on Primary Health Care to the Millennium and Sustainable Development Goals, and related the approach they engendered to the Philippine experience. Health outcomes have not significantly improved despite adherence to recommended goals and programs. New strategies purportedly propose novel and innovative methods, but are burdened by essentially the same old presumptions: government resources are limited, and interventions need to be supported by whatever funds are available. Preference for low-cost and measurable programs providing minimal essential care persists with the current socio-economic conditions characterized by neoliberal and conservative policies. There is a need to return to the fundamentals of the Comprehensive Primary Health Care, linking the health of vulnerable groups, like women and children, to social and economic development. Inter-agency and multi-sectoral approach, community participation and empowerment, real political commitment and major rethinking are needed in national and international discourses on health not just to attain better maternal and child health but to achieve health for all.

Authors: Cagayan Maria Stephanie Fay S. , Ang-Bon Rita Mae
Published: September 2022

Background. One of the strategies adopted by the Department of Health (DOH) to improve maternal outcomes is the systems approach which means understanding extensively how the system operates to determine factors affecting the delivery of services. In 2014, Albay province responded by adapting and implementing the  Maternal, Newborn and Child Health, and Nutrition (MNCHN) Service Delivery Network Guidelines. However, no external monitoring and evaluation have been done to assess the compliance of birthing facilities to these guidelines.

Objectives. To determine Legazpi city’s obstetric service delivery network functionality and to compare government and private primary level birthing facilities in terms of 1) governance; 2) human resources; 3) protocols; 4) transportation and communication; and 5) emergency drugs and equipment.

Materials and Methods. A cross-sectional study using the referral system assessment (RSA) questionnaire translated into a scorecard with a review of secondary data on high-risk pregnancies, referral rates, and maternal mortalities was done on eight facilities in Legazpi City.

Results: Overall, none of the health facilities assessed were fully-functional. Privately owned facilities scored highest in emergency drugs and equipment (83.3%) and lowest in human resources (38.9%).  Government facilities scored highest in emergency drugs and equipment (88.9%) but lowest in transportation and communication (44.4%).  Statistically significant differences were observed for human resources (p-value=0.0180), wherein public facilities garnered higher scores, and in transportation and communication (p-value=0.0294), private facilities showed better scores. Only one maternal death in 418 referrals was reported.

 Conclusion. Overall, the health facilities varied in the level of functionality in terms of SDN guidelines.

This case report will discuss the indications of a bimaxillary osteotomy as well as the management and treatment of post-operative complications following this surgery.
De la Revolución Verde a los OGM. El proceso agroalimentario pampeano (1957-1996)
Authors: Blacha Luis
Published: September 2022

La temprana inserción en el mercado internacional de la región pampeana, la coloca en una posición preponderante en el entramado productivo argentino. A partir de una apropiación social del espacio, este territorio se convierte en el principal productor de bienes agrarios del país. A partir de la idea de proceso de la sociología figuracional, este trabajo propone abordar las transformaciones sociales-productivas-ambientales del mundo rural pampeano. Se identifica un proceso agroalimentario, en donde los distintos sistemas agroindustriales se desarrollan de forma interdependiente, reflejando distintas escalas temporales y diversas apropiaciones del territorio. Los vínculos de poder, y su dependencia del saber, proponen una mediación en estos elementos interdependientes. El objeto es analizar desde la perspectiva sociológica las consecuencias territoriales que supone la Revolución Verde para el agro pampeano, hasta la incorporación masiva de Organismos Genéticamente Modificados (OGM) a escala masiva, tal como resulta con la primera campaña de soja genéticamente modificada de 1996.
Los agronegocios aterrizan en la escuela: análisis de las estrategias educativas de AAPRESID y AACREA
Authors: Liaudat María
Published: September 2022

Este artículo aborda la entrada de los agronegocios en el sistema educativo, específicamente en las escuelas de nivel primario y secundario de nuestro país. El acercamiento a esta problemática se realiza a partir del estudio de las estrategias educativas de dos de las entidades que representan a los protagonistas de este modelo de desarrollo agropecuario: AAPRESID y AACREA. Por un lado, se analiza, el diseño organizacional de sus programas educativos (EduCREA y Aula AAPRESID); y, por otro lado, los discursos que divulgan en estas iniciativas. Desde una perspectiva teórico-metodológica que articula los aportes de Antonio Gramsci y del Análisis Crítico del Discurso, se toma como corpus de estudio la revista y el manual Por el Campo difundido por AACREA en los establecimientos educativos, y el material con que realizan Aula AAPRESID en las escuelas. A partir de este análisis, se avanza en la comprensión de las lógicas de construcción de hegemonía de los agronegocios hacia el interior del sector agropecuario y hacia el conjunto de la sociedad.

Authors: Muzlera José
Published: September 2022

El siguiente trabajo explora las representaciones sociales acerca del agro argentino y sus actores que el suplemento Clarín rural colaboró a construir y difundir durante el año 2016. Partimos del supuesto que las palabras reproducidas generan un efecto ideológico y que los discursos tienen un poder según la jerarquía que ocupan en la relación social que implica al acto comunicativo. Clarín, al ser el diario con mayor tirada de la Argentina, tienen un poder significativo para instaurar una creencia de lo que es el campo argentino, convirtiéndose en un objeto de estudio ideal para observar el discurso hegemónico que circulan en torno al agro y su gente en el conjunto de la sociedad argentina -al menos en los grandes centros urbanos-. Entendiendo “el campo” como categoría nativa y polisémica, en base a las publicidades y notas de tapa de todos los suplementos Clarín Rural del año mencionado, el presente artículo dará cuenta del concepto de agro presentado desde el multimedio más leído de la Argentina.

Resume de la tesis: Discursos, prácticas y estrategias en mutación: la Sociedad Rural de Río Cuarto en el marco del nuevo régimen social de acumulación de los noventa
Authors: Carini Gabriel
Published: September 2022

A partir del conflicto agrario de 2008 cobró mayor visibilidad un ‘campo’ distinto, radicalmente distinto al que era objeto de análisis a fines de los ochenta y durante gran parte de la década del noventa. Un ‘campo’ diverso – como históricamente lo fue – pero que había acentuado su heterogeneidad en todos los estratos de su estructura social. Un verdadero caleidoscopio social, donde convivían (junto con sus contradicciones) empresarios rurales – muchos de los cuales habían tenido hasta hacía poco tiempo escasos vínculos con otros actores rurales –, profesionales vinculados a pooles de siembra, contratistas de maquinarias antes titulares de explotaciones agropecuarias, habitantes de las ahora devenidas agrociudades y ‘pueblos sojeros’ (entre los que se encontraban, por ejemplo, pequeños y medianos comerciantes y productores que habían abandonado la actividad agropecuaria y cedido sus tierras en arriendo). A pesar de esa diversidad, las entidades agrarias ‘nacionales’ – muchas de las cuales tradicionalmente habían mantenido discursos y reivindicaciones diametralmente opuestos entre sí – parecían ahora coincidir en una discursividad monocorde, homogénea, que ocluía las anteriores disonancias.

Authors: K. Basava Reddy , C. Ansar Kamran , P.T. Ramesh , H.A. Upendra , Rao Suguna , V. Mahesh
Published: September 2022

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of carvedilol and hawthorn extract in managing dilated cardiomyopathy  (DCM) to limit the treatment cost and improve the quality of pet life. Total 165 dogs were subjected to detailed clinical and physical examination, electrocardiography and echocardiography. Out of 165 dogs, 61(36.96%) were diagnosed as DCM, out of which 30 were  allocated randomly to three treatment groups comprising ten dogs in each group. Group-I dogs were treated with pimobendan, digoxin, enalapril and furosemide. In Group-II and III, pimobendan was replaced with carvedilol and hawthorn extract, respectively. Dogs with ventricular arrhythmias (Ventricular Premature Complexes, Ventricular fibrillation) were excluded from the treatment groups  as digoxin is contraindicated in ventricular arrhythmias. A noticeable improvement in clinical signs, thoracic radiographic findings, left  ventricular dimensions and left ventricular contractility indices was observed in the three treatment groups after 28 days of treatment  when compared to the pre-treatment values. The drug's therapeutic efficacy was evaluated based on comparative assessment of post treatment left ventricular contractility indices (fractional shortening and ejection fraction). Group I had longer survival time with mean of 375 ± 14.25 days followed by Group III (264.67 ± 41.22 days) and Group II (214.57 ± 31.32 days) dogs.

Authors: Shunmugam Rajathi , Sundaram Muthukrishnan
Published: September 2022

In this study, six animals of each rabbit, guinea pig and mongoose were used to compare the morphological features of the humerus.  The biometrical parameters of the humerus, viz., mean length, width and circumference at the proximal extremity, distal extremity, and  shaft were studied. In proximal extremity, anteriorly, the head of the rabbit humerus was comparatively thicker as compared to guinea  pig and mongoose. The lateral tuberosity was large and less clearly divided in mongooses and the division was not visible in guinea  pigs and rabbits. The lateral surface of the lateral tuberosity was found with a notch that was deep in mongooses and shallow in rabbit  and guinea pig. The bicipital groove was very deep in guinea pig, less deep in rabbit and shallow in mongooses. The lateral surface of  the shaft was spiral, smooth, and with musculo-spiral groove which was deep in mongooses, shallow in rabbit, and the groove was not  visible in the guinea pig. On the lateral surface of the mongoose's proximal extremity of the humerus, the deltoid tuberosity was found  sharp but in rabbit and guinea pig, it was blunt. The coronoid and olecranon fossa were deep in all the three species studied, but was  found to be prominent in rabbit and guinea pig when compared to mongoose. Mongoose humerus was observed with an additional  supracondylar foramen in the medial surface of distal one fourth of the shaft above the supratrochlear foramen.
Review Paper on the Holistic Role of an Architect in Cost Optimization for Affordable Housing
Authors: Mr. Akshay Wayal  , Mrs. Shobhan Kelkar  , Mrs. Shobhan Kelkar
Published: September 2022

With about one in six urban Indians living in illegal squatter settlements, India's need for an extra number of affordable housing is exponentially increasing. In September 2015, the Indian Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation Program (MoHUPA) unveiled its ambitious Housing for All program under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), with the goal of making India slum-free by 2022. This policy is based on similar previous initiatives and shows promise regarding the number of houses to be constructed for all income groups in India with the aid of the government's credit-linked subsidies. The plan, however, has many drawbacks, especially from a people-centered perspective: recipients are often viewed as inactive, the system includes few incentive steps, access to benefits is exclusive and long-term consequences are ignored. It is concluded that PMAY 2014 is essentially a government image campaign and lacks sustainability elements. Even there are many issues that are neglected from a broader perspective such as a private partnership and investment.

An Update on the Incidence, Risk Factors and Mechanisms of Rituximab- Associated Neutropenia
Authors: Zhang Xuehan , Rao Meiying , Xu Gaosi
Published: September 2022

With the increasing application of rituximab in hematological diseases and autoimmune diseases, we have gradually increased our awareness of the adverse reaction of rituximab-associated neutropenia, but little is known about its true incidence rate, susceptibility risk factors and exact pathogenesis. At present, research groups have conducted a large number of studies on different populations. The team found that age (age > 60), advanced disease, autologous stem cell transplantation, systemic lupus erythematosus and combined cyclophosphamide therapy were independent risk factors for RAN. However, its exact mechanism is not completely clear. Several hypotheses have been put forward to solve this question, including the production of anti-neutrophil antibodies after RTB, the generation disorder and neutrophil maturation stagnation caused by abnormal B-cell reconstruction, and the amplification of T-large granular lymphocyte population that may induce neutrophil apoptosis. This article reviews the update of the incidence rate, risk factors and mechanism of RAN.

Authors:   , Bugwandin Vinay
Published: September 2022

Business sustainability in today’s world is primarily arduous owing to global economic and financial crises. In the first quarter of 2019, according to Statistics South Africa the Gross Domestic Product deteriorated by 3.2%. Similarly in KwaZulu-Natal, the state of sustainability of Small and Medium Enterprises were on the decline and the majority (75%) of small and medium enterprises failed after operating for three years. The purpose of this research was to formulate a business strategy to achieve sustainability for small and medium enterprises. Small and medium enterprises in KwaZulu-Natal do not sustain themselves for long term periods due to the underlying problem being strategy formulation. Hence, the need for a strategy to achieve sustainability. The mixed methodology approach was used in this empirical study using the survey and interview methods. The target population of 488 000, a confidence level of 95%, margin of error of 5% and a 50% response rate was used which indicated a sample size of 384 respondents. Upon completion of the data collection, a total of 200 responses were obtained within a capped period of 30 days, which accounted for >52% of the target sample size. Furthermore, the grounded theory was employed on a target of 20 individuals, whereby the participants were interviewed to investigate opinions towards strategy development and sustainability in KwaZulu-Natal. The core element of ‘Strategy’ and the sub-elements of ‘Change’, ‘Purpose’ and ‘Leadership’ were investigated. It was found that ‘Change’, ‘Purpose’ and ‘Leadership’ were the main contributors towards achieving sustainability. Furthermore, a Systems Thinking Model was used successfully to indicate the interdependencies to purport the goal of achieving sustainability. Ultimately it was found that ‘Strategy’, ‘Change’, ‘Purpose’, and ‘Leadership’ were required to achieve a ‘Sustainable Business Strategy’. Due cognisance should be taken by leaders, from the perspectives of ‘Change’, ‘Purpose’ and ‘Leadership’, to formulate a strategy which sustains the business. A conceptual framework was developed for small and medium enterprises to achieve a sustainable business strategy.
Fortification of food products : a consumer perspective
Authors:   , Serubugo Ayub
Published: September 2022

The prevalence of malnutrition and hidden hunger in developed but largely in developing countries, has led to the introduction of mandatory food fortification for the purpose of overcoming micro-nutrients malnutrition. Consumers have inadequate knowledge and are not aware of the relevance of food fortification. It is important for consumers to be conversant with fortified food products in order to make healthy food choices in a bid to overcome the phenomenon of micro-nutrient deficiency. The purpose of the study was to assess consumers’ level of awareness of food fortification in South Africa. A sample of n=400 consumers in the Durban central region was selected to participate in the survey. Non-probability convenience sampling was applied to nominate the participants in the study. The positivist cross-sectional study was undertaken using a quantitative paradigm to assess the various factors responsible for consumers’ inadequate knowledge of fortification. The measuring instrument was a five-point Likert scale questionnaire that constituted twenty-five questions and one open ended question. The results were captured on excel spreadsheet and analysed using SPSS version 25.0 software package. Descriptive and inferential statistical methods were utilised to summarise and analyse the results respectively. The study established that most of the consumers are not familiar with food fortification and its importance. The findings indicate further that there is a positive relationship 𝑝 < 0.05 between knowledge of the benefits of fortified products and motivation to buy fortified food products. On the other hand, it was also found that, there is a significant relationship between the shortcomings of food fortification and barriers for fortified food purchase intention. Therefore, there is a need to develop intervention strategies that can create awareness of food fortification basing on the findings of the study.

Published: September 2022

Certification is a mandatory requirement for seafood product exporters in Indonesia, so that the products sold can be accepted by consumers in their country, but exporting companies face problems if there is a quality rejection when food safety regulations are applied by the importing country. The certification, which was initially voluntary in nature, eventually becomes an export obligation and condition when the buyer from the importing country requests it. Problems arise when the buyer does not continue the request because the company in the exporting country does not have the required certification. Significant certification fees (including audit fees and other costs to meet the requirements requested by the certifier), become one of several certification obstacles for seafood product exporter companies in Indonesia. The research was conducted using a survey method and Forum Group Discussion (FGD) to 58 experienced respondents in the field of implementing Food Safety Management Systems who work in 8 exporting companies of seafood products certified by the British Retail Consortium (BRC) Global Food Standard version 8 in Indonesia. Each company is represented by a minimum of 2 people and a maximum of 7 respondents who serve as supervisors, managers, to company directors. The total number of respondents is limited, but the quality of opinions that are very specific, focused, and broad understanding as business actors make the results can be used as a reference. The development of certification goes hand in hand with demand, consumer expectations and the complexity of the company's internal and external aspects, one of which refers to the supply chain management process (Supply Chain Management). Physical suitability, quality, food safety, and the purchase price of fish raw materials are indicated as internal aspects that support business continuity in the fishery business. Meanwhile, government support is indicated as an external aspect. This research is aimed specifically at fisheries and marine business actors in Indonesia who want to expand their market to the world market. Company management commitment is required in the implementation of Food Safety & Quality Management Systems in various aspects of the company on an ongoing basis (Continuous Improvement).
