Patterns of Commodification of Yoga through Symbolic Narratives in New Media: A Case Study of Instagram Social Media @Deeradewi
This paper aims to analyze the patterns and forms of commodification of Yoga through the narrative of symbols used on social media as a representation of the characteristics of new media. Similar literature tends to review the commodification of Yoga in conventional media and review Yoga as a lifestyle. However, few studies have analyzed the commodification of Yoga through new media such as interactive, two-way, dispersed social media, even though this phenomenon is increasingly occurring in the digital era. This study uses qualitative methods and content analysis with Jean Baudrillard's theory of Symbolic Capitalism to examine the commodification of Yoga through symbolic narratives on the Instagram account of Deera Dewi, a popular yoga instructor. The study's findings show that the commodification of Yoga is indirectly becoming easier through Instagram social media. This commodification is seen in several forms, such as using exclusive venues as a backdrop for activities, branded yoga equipment, product promotions/sponsorships, collaborations with certain companies, and the participation of individuals from the upper echelons. These four aspects are interrelated, with product promotion and company collaboration being the dominant symbols in the yoga commodification process on the Instagram account. This study shows that the characteristics of new media, such as Instagram, accelerate the commodification of Yoga through symbolic visualization that is exclusive and consumptive

Kepemimpinan Sektoral Indonesia di ASEAN: Studi Atas Kontra-Terorisme
This study intends to analyze Indonesia’s sectoral leadership in counter-terrorism in Southeast Asia through ASEAN framework. Terrorism, radicalism, and violent extremism constitute significant non-traditional threats in the region. Employing the concept of sectoral leadership, this research examines the extent to which Indonesia has played a leadership in specific issue areas within ASEAN. Using a qualitative approach through desk research and interviews, the study finds that Indonesia fulfills the four key elements of sectoral leadership: material and institutional capabilities, political commitment, normative authority, and legitimacy from other states. Indonesia’s leadership is reflected in diplomatic initiatives such as the ASEAN Plan of Action to Prevent and Counter the Rise of Radicalisation and Violent Extremism (ASEAN PoA PCRVE) 2018-2025 and Bali Work Plan 2019-2025. The finding suggest that Indonesia leadership is contributing to institutional development and strengthening of regional security cooperation. The study underscores the relevance of sectoral leadership as a conceptual lens for understanding the dynamic of states roles in regional organizations, particularly in the Global South

Sentiment Analysis of Public Opinion on Online Gambling Through Social Media Using Convolutional Neural Network
Online gambling has become a serious social issue due to its easy accessibility through digital platforms, requiring effective policy interventions. This study analyzes public sentiment toward online gambling by examining 10,000 YouTube comments using a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithm. Data were collected via the YouTube API and underwent preprocessing steps including text cleaning, normalization, tokenization, stopword removal, and stemming. Sentiment labeling was performed using a lexicon-based approach, with data transformed through Word2Vec embedding and balanced using oversampling techniques. The CNN model, consisting of embedding, convolutional, pooling, and dense layers, achieved an impressive accuracy of 99.10%, outperforming traditional machine learning methods. Sentiment was categorized into positive, neutral, and negative, with the majority of comments reflecting positive sentiment, indicating public support for efforts to combat online gambling. WordCloud visualizations highlighted dominant themes and frequently used terms. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of CNN in analyzing unstructured social media data and offers valuable insights for policymakers. Future research should explore hybrid architectures such as CNN-LSTM and expand datasets by including other platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok to enhance generalization and address broader social challenges
