‘New Dispensation, New Kids on the Block’. 'Ama 2000' and the 2023 Harmonised Elections in Zimbabwe
Authors: Masunda Octavious Chido 
Published: March 2024

Zimbabwe's political landscape has undergone significant changes since the 2017 coup, with the post-coup period being christened the ‘New Dispensation’. The advent of the ‘New Dispensation’, characterised with promises of a new and revolving democracy, coincided with the coming of voting age of ‘Ama 2000’. The paper investigated the electoral participation of ‘Ama 2000’ in Zimbabwe’s 2023 elections. A theoretical framework that looked at factors that influence youth political participation was developed and used in explaining the electoral participation or their lack thereof. 115 focus group respondents between the ages of 18 to 23 were selected in Zimbabwe’s cities of Harare and Bulawayo, wherein conversations on the motivations and barriers on youth political engagement were facilitated. Whilst ‘Ama 2000’ demonstrated political knowledge and interest, they are generally apathetic, with a few participating in voting whilst most did not associate with the other forms of electoral participation. Disillusionment with both politicians and political parties, politically motivated violence, and life cycle factors were the major reasons for their lack of interest in the country’s 2023 elections. Arguably, there is no democratic and plural ‘New Dispensation’ after all, as these same factors have deterred older youth from participating in elections under the authoritarian Mugabe regime. However, the limited participation of ‘Ama 2000’ in voting demonstrates commitment to democratic principles and a desire to shape the country's future. To address the youth apathy gap, political parties must actively engage with them, reform and promote inclusivity. At state level, structural reforms of an electoral nature are necessary to protect the security of the voter. Civil society has a role to play in strengthening civic education programs that instill a sense of civic duty and active participation in democracy. By involving youth in the democratic process, Zimbabwe can build a foundation for inclusive political participation.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the legal arrangements for the place of entry and release of animal and plant quarantine carrier media, and the factors, constraints, solutions, and implementation of the place of entry and release of animal and plant quarantine carrier media.
Methodology: The research method of this thesis is normative juridical (legal research) through a literature study with an empirical juridical approach (sociological juridical) through field studies aimed at empirically obtaining legal knowledge.
Results: The results showed that the legal regulation of the place of entry and release of animal and plant quarantine carrier media is Article 86 and Article 87 of Law Number 21 of 2019 concerning Animal, Fish and Plant Quarantine, which regulates the prohibition of entering or removing animal and plant quarantine carrier media other than the place of entry and release determined by the Central Government. The implementation of animal and plant quarantine entry and exit points at the Batam Class I Agricultural Quarantine Center reflects serious efforts to maintain the integrity of the national biological security. However, there are obstacles, such as limited human resources, inadequate facilities, and challenges in inter-stakeholder coordination. However, by applying the latest technology, increasing the capacity of human resources through training, and improving coordination and communication with related parties, the Batam Quarantine Center found a strategic solution to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its services in carrying out quarantine duties.
Implementation of Law Number 14 of 2008 on Public Information Transparency in the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR RI)
Authors: Firdaus Feri , Zaimasuri Zaimasuri 
Published: March 2024

Purpose: The House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia (DPR-RI) is an institution that is mandated and represents the voice of the people who have directly voted through general elections. This representation function can be effective and have a real impact if the DPR is open to providing information to the public. However, in reality, the parliament's commitment to public information disclosure is still questioned by many elements of society. Many incidents have caused the public to doubt the DPR's commitment to public information disclosure, such as information and documents related to the revision of the KPK Law, the Omnibus Law Bill, and the Job Creation Bill, among others. This study aims to analyze the implementation of public information disclosure policies in the DPR-RI.
Methodology: The research method used in this study is descriptive qualitative, where primary and secondary data are obtained through in-depth interviews with predetermined key informants and literature studies related to the research topic.
Result: The research findings indicate that the implementation of the Public Information Disclosure Law in the DPR-RI is still not optimal, particularly in the utilization of information disclosure media and information resources.
Contribution: This research will contribute to expanding theoretical and practical knowledge regarding the implementation of public information disclosure policies in legislative institutions as part of communication policy studies.

Essay Writing Strategies Employed by English-Majored Sophomores at A University in Vietnam
Authors: Nguyen Trang 
Published: March 2024

This study investigates students’ use of essay writing strategies in different stages of the writing process. The participants included 105 English-majored sophomores at Hanoi Law University who have completed two courses in paragraph and essay writing instruction. A 5-level Likert close-ended survey questionnaire was designed to collect quantitative data regarding students’ frequency of applying overall and specific writing strategies in pre-writing, while-writing, and post-writing stages. The results revealed that while-writing strategies were used at high frequency by the participants while pre-writing and post-writing strategies were used at medium frequency. It is also found that, at the pre-writing stage, the students prefer reading sample essays; trying to understand the task requirements by either referring to their teacher’s notes or discussing with their teachers and friends and having a mental, unwritten plan before writing. While writing, students have taken use of various strategies which can be grouped into strategies to deal with the structure of the essay, strategies to develop ideas, strategies to activate vocabulary use, and strategies to review their mechanics. The strategies in the post-writing stage are the least frequently used, which include reading the whole text silently, checking if the essay matches the requirements, then making changes in the spelling and punctuation. Revising following their teacher’s feedback and actively asking their teacher or classmates are also frequently applied techniques for essay writing revision.

Authors: Cindy Yusliani  , Ita Murbani Handajaningrum  
Published: March 2024

Background: Nephrotic syndrome is rare in the normal population but is reported more frequently in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The pathogenesis is not clearly known, but it is thought to be related to immune dysregulation.
Case presentation: We report a case of nephrotic syndrome in a 24-year-old woman with MDS. Patients complain of swelling, foamy urination, paleness, weakness, bleeding gums, and reddish spots on the body. Physical examination revealed hypertension, anemia, petechiae, and edema. Laboratory examination showed anemia, thrombocytopenia, hypoalbuminemia, dyslipidemia, and proteinuria. Abdominal ultrasound showed chronic processes in the kidneys, ascites, and pleural effusion. A renal biopsy showed membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.
Conclusion: Nephrotic syndrome in MDS patients is rarely reported, and its pathogenesis is still not clearly understood. Further research is needed to understand the pathogenesis and optimal therapeutic options.

Abstract
Voyager 1 has been moving through the very local interstellar medium (VLISM) for ∼1 solar cycle, from 122.58 au on 2012/DOY 238 (August 25) to 158.5 au on 2023.0. A magnetic hump was observed, beginning with an abrupt increase (jump) in the magnetic field strength B and proton density N by a factor of 1.35 and 1.36, respectively, in the course of ∼8 days, ending at ∼2020/DOY 147, after which it remained above the pre-jump levels for 2.6 yr, and it is still increasing. Unlike the three previous jumps, which were followed by a slow decrease in B, B in the magnetic hump continued to increase to a maximum value ∼0.56 nT at ∼2021/DOY 146.7. This paper discusses the intermittency of the magnetic field components and strength in the magnetic hump, and compares them with previous values in the VLISM. We consider the intermittency of the increments of
B
and its components observed on a scale of one day. The distribution function (the Tsallis distribution or q-distribution function) of the increments of hourly averages of the components of
B
had a Gaussian core associated with randomness in the observations, and it had two symmetric tails associated with the observed intermittency. The parameters q-dBR1, q-dBT1, and q-dBN1 increased slightly to a broad maximum with q = ∼1.4 between 2018 and 2019, and then decreased to q ∼ 1 (corresponding to no intermittency) in 2022. The Z-component of the magnetic field is within 4 ± 4 counts (0.02 nT ± 0.02 nT).
