No full textPurpose: This study aims to examine the legal application in adultery cases involving TNI soldiers and analyze the indictment elements in Military Court Decision No. 10-K/PM II-08/AL/I/2023.
Research Methodology: The research used is normative legal research or also called doctrinal legal research, namely research whose data sources are only secondary data.
Results: The crime of adultery in the case of decision Number 10-K / PM II-08 / AL / I / 2023, that the processing of the case carried out by the military auditor on the case which was legally and convincingly proven was obtained through the examination report, the military auditor's demands regarding the proof of the elements of the indictment were declared unacceptable, because the military auditor in compiling the indictment used Article 281 point 1 of the Criminal Code alone, the indictment should have been compiled alternatively using Article 248 or 281 point 1 of the Criminal Code. So that in the application of the processing of the case there is an imbalance or inequality within the scope of the military auditor himself, with the author then making a legal comparison of the decisions that have permanent legal force that occurred in the military court environment
Analysis of the fulfillment of decent living needs of indigenous Papuan traders at the Central Market of Timika, Central Papua
No full textPurpose: This study aims to analyze the extent to which Indigenous Papuan (OAP) traders at the Timika Central Market in Central Papua are able to meet the standards of a Decent Living Needs (Kebutuhan Hidup Feasible/KHL), particularly in relation to their income and family responsibilities.
Research/methodology: A mixed-method approach was employed, combining quantitative data from 73 respondents via structured questionnaires and qualitative insights through in-depth interviews and direct observation. The analysis utilized descriptive statistics to assess income and expenditures, and benchmarked them against the standard living needs set by national regulations (Permenakertrans RI No. 13/2012).
Results: The findings indicate that 87.67% of the OAP traders earned incomes sufficient to meet the KHL standards for their household size, while 12.33% were found to be below the KHL threshold due to high family dependency ratios. The most significant income sources came from selling local agricultural products, crafts (e.g., noken), and forest-based commodities. Challenges included limited access to capital, lack of managerial and digital literacy, and minimal government support.
Conclusions: Most OAP traders at Timika Central Market meet the Decent Living Needs standard, but some remain vulnerable due to low income and high family burdens. Strengthening government support is essential to improve their welfare and business sustainability.
Limitations: The study is geographically limited to one market in Central Papua and focuses only on OAP traders, which may not fully represent conditions in other informal trading centers across Papua or Indonesia.
Contribution: This study provides empirical evidence of the socioeconomic struggles and resilience of Indigenous traders in the informal economy. It highlights the need for tailored policies and empowerment programs, and contributes to the literature on local economic development, informal labor markets, and indigenous livelihoods

Limitations: This study is limited to one geographic location and a small respondent sample, which may not fully capture the broader regional impact. Moreover, the analysis does not account for long-term sustainability or maintenance of the infrastructure.
Contribution: The study contributes to the literature on infrastructure-led local economic development, providing empirical evidence on how improved road access can stimulate production, improve distribution efficiency, and increase community income. It also serves as a policy reference for future infrastructure planning in underdeveloped regions
Analysis of the effectiveness of budget management of Additional Employee Income (TPP) at the Youth and Sports Office of Papua Province
No full textPurpose: This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the management of the Employee Performance Supplement (TPP) budget at the Youth and Sports Office of Papua Province, focusing on the achievement of output and outcome, and identifying the challenges in its implementation.
Research/methodology: This study uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, documentation, and budget and staffing document reviews.
Results: The results show that the administrative management of the TPP has been quite effective, as indicated by the availability of accountability documents and budget realization in line with the allocation. However, the effectiveness of the TPP as an incentive to improve employee performance is still low. The amount of TPP does not yet take into account actual attendance and performance, and it has not been integrated with a performance evaluation system based on results. As a result, the provision of TPP has not optimally encouraged discipline and productivity.
Conclusions: The management of the TPP budget at the Youth and Sports Office of Papua Province is administratively effective but lacks impact on improving employee performance. Incentives are not based on actual attendance or output, reducing their motivational effect. Delays in disbursement and weak performance evaluation systems further undermine the purpose of the TPP.
Limitations: This study is limited to a single institution, with a small sample size and no quantitative performance metrics, which restricts the generalizability and depth of the analysis.
Contribution: This study highlights the gap between budget compliance and performance outcomes, and offers recommendations for integrating attendance and performance data into the incentive system
A correlational study on organizational culture and leadership style
No full textPurpose: This study aimed to explore the relationship between organizational culture and leadership styles among Local Government Unit (LGU) departments in the municipality of Santo Tomas, Davao del Norte.
Research Methodology: Prior to data collection, the respondents were presented with a letter requesting their cooperation in completing the questionnaires. The researchers personally introduced themselves, explained the study objectives, and distributed questionnaires. After providing sufficient time for respondents to complete the questionnaires, they were collected.
Results: Results revealed that the independent variable, Organizational Culture, had a mean score of 4.45, which was interpreted as "very high," while the dependent variable, Leadership Style, had a mean score of 4.51, also categorized as "very high." Furthermore, the overall correlation coefficient (r-value) was 0.573, with a p-value of 0.001, leading to rejection of the null hypothesis. This indicates a significant and positive relationship between Organizational Culture and Leadership Style in the LGU departments of Santo Tomas, Davao del Norte. The findings suggest that a stronger organizational culture positively influences leadership style, with higher levels of culture leading to enhanced leadership behaviors.
Conclusions: Overall, the findings show that organizational culture and leadership style are both rated extremely high, with a significant and strong positive relationship between them, leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis.
Limitations: This study is limited by its focus on a single municipality and the use of universal sampling, which may restrict the generalizability of the findings to other contexts or organizations.
Contribution: This study offers valuable insights into local government units and organizational development, highlighting the importance of fostering a strong organizational culture to enhance leadership practices and organizational success
Exploring board composition and humanistic management in developing countries' State-Owned Enterprises
No full textPurpose: This study examines the impact of board composition on the humanistic management performance of Zimbabwean State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs). This study examines four essential factors of board composition–board diversity, board tenure, board size, and board committees—to determine their influence on governance and performance in SOEs.
Methods: A descriptive research design with an interpretative qualitative approach was adopted. Data were collected from Zimbabwe General Auditor Reports (2016-2022) and semi-structured interviews with 20 SOE directors. Thematic analysis was used to identify patterns and develop insights into the relationship between board composition and humanistic management performance.
Results: The findings revealed that political interference, inadequate board evaluation, and the appointment of unqualified directors negatively affect board composition, limiting SOEs' ability to achieve humanistic management outcomes. Despite the existence of governance frameworks, these challenges hinder effective decision-making, transparency, and strategic alignment with humanistic management principles.
Conclusions: The study concludes that board size does not affect the humanistic management performance of the board.
Limitations: The study is limited to Zimbabwean SOEs, which may affect the generalizability of the findings to other developing economies. Additionally, reliance on qualitative methods introduces the possibility of subjective biases despite rigorous thematic analysis.
Contribution: This study recommends that Parliament Portfolio Committees strengthen their oversight role in board appointments to enhance governance and performance. It also advocates adopting a Humanistic Governance Framework to improve transparency, accountability, and efficiency while reducing corruption in Zimbabwean SOEs
Exploring the impact of social influence and halal certification on repurchase intention: The mediating role of trust in online purchases of imported halal food in Indonesia
No full textPurpose: This study aims to analyze the influence of Social Influence and Halal Certification on Repurchase Intention, with Trust as a moderating variable in the online purchase of imported halal food in Indonesia.
Methods: The sample consisted of 260 consumers who made online purchases of imported halal food in Indonesia. Data collection was conducted via a Google Form survey distributed online to respondents. Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to test the research hypotheses.
Results: The results indicate that Performance Expectancy (PE) significantly positively influences trust (TR). Social Influence (SI) significantly impacts Trust (TR), strongly shaping consumer confidence. Halal Certification plays a significant role in enhancing consumer trust regarding online purchases of imported halal food. Consumer Trust (TR) significantly affects Repurchase Intention (RI). SI also significantly influenced RI. Although Halal Certification (HC) boosts consumer trust in product quality, its effect on RI is not significant. SI significantly impacts RI through the mediation of trust. HC significantly influenced RI, which was fully mediated by trust.
Conclusions: Social Influence and Halal Certification both enhance consumer Trust, which significantly drives Repurchase Intention, with Trust fully mediating the effect of Halal Certification and partially mediating the effect of Social Influence, while Halal Certification alone does not directly influence repurchase behavior.
Limitations: This study has limitations regarding the sample, which only includes consumers from urban areas, necessitating caution in generalizing the findings to rural populations. Additionally, cultural factors and religiosity impacting trust were not included as control variables.
Contribution: This study provides practical insights for e-commerce businesses and halal food importers regarding the importance of halal certification and social influence in shaping consumer trust and repurchase intention. Furthermore, it enriches the literature on Muslim consumer behavior in the digital context.
Novelty: This research contributes new insights by examining the role of trust as a moderating variable in online purchases of imported halal food, a relatively under-researched area, particularly in Indonesia, the country with the largest Muslim population in the world

Maintaining cooperative sustainability: The mediation role of performance measurement systems
No full textPurpose: This study aims to identify an ideal information system to support cooperative organizations in enhancing their managerial performance and promoting long-term business sustainability.
Research Methodology: Data were collected through distributed questionnaires and analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to test the proposed hypotheses.
Results: The findings confirm that Management Accounting Information Systems (MAIS) and Performance Measurement Systems (PMS) significantly and positively affect Managerial Performance (MP). PMS is shown to mediate the relationship between MAIS and MP. These results are expected to offer practical insights for cooperative managers in applying accounting principles and performance tools.
Conclusions: This research reveals that quality and timely MAIS are vital for decision-making in cooperatives and SMEs. PMS plays a critical mediating role by reinforcing the positive impact of MAIS on MP.
Limitations: The study is limited by the narrow scope of research, small sample size, and respondents with limited work experience. It also faces challenges in accounting for diverse member backgrounds. Future research should involve broader samples, more variables (e.g., budgeting, accountability), and improved methods.
