Carbon Footprint in Fossil Power Plants and Nuclear Energy Systems
Get PDFThe energy sector, including electricity, heat, and transportation, is the main contributor to GHG emissions because it handles 73.2%. Given the increasingly real threat of the climate crisis, a commitment to reduce the amountof emissions released into the environment needs to be made. One of the emission avoidance measures is an energy transition that shifts dependence on fossil energy to other, cleaner energy sources. As a less polluting technology, nuclear energy ensures a pure environment, thereby enhancing human well-being. Nuclear energy provides and develops greater efficiency and adaptability. It provides access to cheap, reliable, carbon-free energy for industrialized and developing countries. Sixty gigatons of carbon emissions avoided over the last 50 years because of nuclear energy. This form of energy distributes a lot of energy without releasing a lot of contaminants. The criterion of technical advancement must be considered when determining the relationship between the use of nuclear energy and carbon footprint because it can lead to the production of cleaner and alternative sources of energy while lowering the danger of air pollution. The findings support the hypothesis that nuclear energy use may have a negative effect on carbon footprint. These findings imply that the widespread use of nuclear energy can help minimize environmental pollution because it almost entirely eliminates carbon emissions when compared to traditional power plants that use non-renewable energy
The Ideal Indonesia's Musyawarah: A Remedy for the ASEAN Way
Get PDFOver half a century has passed, yet ASEAN is again caught between two battling giants. Utilizing a literature review approach, we delve into this issue by focusing on the ASEAN way, which is the machine of ASEAN. Contrary to skeptics' views, the consensus mechanism's negative effects stem more from the non-intervention principle, which limits its utility. However, the key to addressing this issue lies in utilizing agenda to better consensus mechanisms to create a non-interference minimalized forum. The key is that ASEAN member states are willing to fund thousands of forums to achieve consensus on various issues. Indonesia, the nominal leader that habitually hedges between great power and the owner of musyawarah and mufakat used by TAC, is the best actor to initiate this idea. Currently, when ASEAN states are divided and cannot convince, much less help each other, Indonesia's Musyawarah and Mufakat, which brings all voices, including the taboo ones, to the table, could be the key to creating a special forum where ASEAN member states become strategists to help other member but maintain the dignity and autonomy of the helped member. Ultimately, what is usually swept under the rug and hinders the consensus-building process can be minimized, and ASEAN can become a more effective organizatio

Instilling Environmental and Disaster Awareness Through Jeneberang River School
Get PDFMost of the river basins in Indonesia are categorized as crisis, one of them is Jeneberang. This condition is caused by human behavior and activities that do not pay attention to environmental aspects such as the conversion of forest land into fields and there are still people who still throw their garbage into the river even though the river has a very important function for human life and livelihood. This research will focus on discussing how the Jeneberang River School instills an attitude of environmental care and disaster awareness for the community. The method used is qualitative with a descriptive design. The data was collected through interviews with the founder and principal of Sungai Jeneberang School and document/literature study.

Commodification Of Education In Transactional Leadership [A Literature Review Study]
Get PDFHigher education is increasingly seen as a commodity that can be bought and sold in the global market. This phenomenon emerges along with the development of a culture of capitalism that penetrates into the academic realm. This research examines the role of transactional leadership in the commodification of higher education in Indonesia. Using a case study approach of literature review from various journals, this research investigates how transactional leadership practices contribute to the transformation of education into an economically fungible product. The research findings reveal that transactional leadership encourages the creation of a management system that is oriented towards financial gain. Students are viewed as consumers, while education becomes a service that must be sold competitively. Transactional leaders tend to adopt business strategies such as aggressive marketing, diversification of study programs, and exploitation of human resources to maximize institutional income. Furthermore, this study analyzes the impact of education commodification on learning quality, academic integrity, and the welfare of the academic community. The results show that commodification can sacrifice essential aspects of education, such as intellectual development, character building, and the pursuit of scientific truth, in order to pursue financial goals. This study concludes that transactional leadership has the potential to change the face of higher education into a pure business activity, with significant consequences for the quality and purpose of education itself. The findings make an important contribution to the discussion on the direction of higher education in Indonesia and the role of leadership in determining the values embraced by educational institutions.Pendidikan tinggi semakin dipandang sebagai komoditas yang dapat diperjualbelikan di pasar global.

Peran Mediasi Struktur Modal dalam Pengaruh Likuiditas dan Profitabilitas terhadap Nilai Perusahaan. Studi : Perusahaan Sektor Teknologi yang Terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia 2020-2022
No full textThe importance of firm value represents a key rationale for investors to invest in a company. A firm with a high firm value provides a positive signal to potential investors, indicating a favorable investment environment. Factors such as profitability and liquidity can affect firm value. The principal aim of this research is to examine the relationship between firm value, profitability, and liquidity, with particular consideration given to the mediating effect of capital structure. This research employs a quantitative methodology and utilizes a total sample of 17 companies. The data analysis employed in this study makes use of SmartPLS 3.0 software. Based on the results of this study, firm value is not affected by profitability and liquidity because it shows p value > 0.05, specifically 0.344 and 0.073. Firm value is influenced by capital structure with p value 0.014, which in turn is influenced by profitability with p value 0.026. After the capital structure functions as a mediation, the p value shows a value of 0.046, which means that profitability affects the value of technology companies listed on the IDX for the 2020-2022 period. However, the relationship between liquidity and firm value shows a p value of 0.225 that means capital structure does not appear capable of mediating the relationship between liquidity and firm value.Pentingnya nilai perusahaan merupakan alasan utama bagi investor untuk berinvestasi di sebuah perusahaan.

Faktor-faktor seperti profitabilitas dan likuiditas dapat mempengaruhi nilai perusahaan. Tujuan utama dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji hubungan antara nilai perusahaan, profitabilitas, dan likuiditas, dengan pertimbangan khusus pada efek mediasi struktur modal. Penelitian ini menggunakan metodologi kuantitatif dan menggunakan sampel sebanyak 17 perusahaan. Analisis data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini menggunakan perangkat lunak SmartPLS 3.0. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini, nilai perusahaan tidak dipengaruhi oleh profitabilitas dan likuiditas. Nilai perusahaan dipengaruhi oleh struktur modal, yang pada gilirannya dipengaruhi oleh profitabilitas. Setelah struktur modal berfungsi sebagai mediasi, Profitabilitas berpengaruh terhadap nilai perusahaan teknologi yang terdaftar di BEI periode 2020-2022. Namun, struktur modal tampaknya tidak mampu memediasi hubungan antara likuiditas dan nilai perusahaan.

The Role of Corporate Governance Mecanism in Enhancing Firm Value with CSR as Moderating Variable
Get PDFWithin the framework of GCG research, a company's value is an indicator of how well its performance and sustainability are assessed from the viewpoints of investors and shareholders. The study examines how corporate social responsibility disclosure (CSR) and effective corporate governance practices (GCG), including the presence of an audit committee, institutional ownership, and managerial ownership, influence firm value. Additionally, it explores the moderating effects of these factors on the relationship between CSR, GCG, and firm value. To determine the relationship between variables, this study uses a quantitative approach method where data is collected in the form of numbers and analyzed using the Eviews application. The study encompassed all mining corporations that were publicly listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) between 2020 and 2022. Purposive sampling was used for sampling, and resulted in a research sample of 99 companies. There is no discernible impact on managerial ownership, institutional ownership, and the presence of an audit committee regarding the moderated relationship between CSR and firm value because the probability value of the interaction between IO and CSR 0.9582 > 0.05, AC and CSR 0.8528 > 0.05, and MO and CSR 0.6689 > 0.05 more than 0.05. Thus, hypotheses H4, H5, and H6 which predict that MO, IO, and AC will have an impact on firm value when moderated by CSR are not proven correct based on the test results. The study results validate that institutional and managerial ownership positively impact firm value in a significant manner, whereas the audit committee exerts a positive yet statistically insignificant influence.Penelitian ini mengkaji bagaimana pengungkapan tanggung jawab sosial perusahaan (CSR) dan praktik tata kelola perusahaan yang efektif (GCG), termasuk keberadaan komite audit, kepemilikan institusional, dan kepemilikan manajerial, mempengaruhi nilai perusahaan. Selain itu, penelitian ini mengeksplorasi efek moderasi dari faktor-faktor tersebut pada hubungan antara CSR, GCG, dan nilai perusahaan. Untuk menentukan hubungan antara variabel-variabel, penelitian ini menggunakan metode pendekatan kuantitatif di mana data dikumpulkan dalam bentuk angka dan dianalisis menggunakan aplikasi Eviews. Penelitian ini mencakup semua perusahaan pertambangan yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia (IDX) antara tahun 2020 dan 2022. Teknik purposive sampling digunakan untuk pengambilan sampel, dan menghasilkan sampel penelitian sebanyak 33 perusahaan. Tidak ada dampak yang nyata pada kepemilikan manajerial, kepemilikan institusional, dan keberadaan komite audit terkait dengan hubungan yang dimoderasi antara CSR dan nilai perusahaan. Hasil penelitian ini memvalidasi bahwa kepemilikan institusional dan manajerial berdampak positif terhadap nilai perusahaan secara signifikan, sedangkan komite audit memberikan pengaruh positif namun tidak signifikan secara statistik
Indonesian And Malaysia Sea Defense Strategies In Responding The South China Sea’s Threats
Get PDFThe South China Sea is a source of conflict between China and Southeast Asian countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia because China claims the nine-dash lines that pass through the Indonesian Exclusive Economic Zone and the Malaysian territory. This area has high fishery potential and is the main route for global trade, so the maritime defense strategies of the countries concerned are very crucial. This research method uses qualitative data sources using literature studies. The results of the analysis and discussion show that there are differences between Indonesia's and Malaysia's maritime defense strategies, which are influenced by factors such as the fact that Malaysia is one of the ASEAN countries that claims the South China Sea area. However, Indonesia and Malaysia have similarities by using soft power diplomacy and track-3 multi-track diplomacy in dealing with these threats, one of which is due to the economic cooperation of the both countries with China
