. The aims of this research are to understand how syncretism is manifested in the lives of the Dusun Catak community, to comprehend the history of Dusun Catak, and to analyze the Islamic perspective on the practice of offering sesajen carried out by the Dusun Catak community. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method, combining literature study by exploring previous research, conducting direct observations at the research location for four days, and performing in-depth interviews with several informants. The results show that syncretism in Dusun Catak is manifested in a unique form, where the tradition of sesajen adapts to Islamic teachings. The Dusun Catak community also preserves the village's historical traditions by passing them down through generations. The placement of sesajen is carried out in specific locations. The practice of offering sesajen is regarded as a form of local wisdom that is not perceived as deviating from religious norms by the community; although the offerings are placed in various locations and are associated with respect for the ancestors of the Catak community, the practice is understood as part of a cultural tradition that is integrated with the Islamic values upheld by the community.
Abstract:Infrastructure management in outermost border islands is not only a matter of physical development, but also a strategic issue related to sovereignty, community welfare, connectivity and national defence. This article examines…
amines infrastructure management on Miangas Island, one of Indonesia’s northernmost outer islands bordering the Philippines. Although Miangas already has several basic and strategic infrastructures, including roads, an airport, a port, electricity facilities, clean water sources, telecommunications, health facilities and security infrastructure, these assets have not yet functioned as an integrated and reliable system. The main problem is therefore not the absence of infrastructure, but the gap between physical availability and functional performance. This study uses a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach based on field observation, semi-structured interviews and document review. Data were analysed using the Miles and Huberman model, supported by STEEP+M and SWOT analysis. The findings show that infrastructure management in Miangas is influenced by three main indicators: infrastructure availability and quality, connectivity and accessibility, and infrastructure sustainability. Internally, Miangas has strengths in its strategic geography, existing infrastructure assets, state institutional presence, social cohesion and strong national identity. However, these strengths are constrained by weak service quality, limited maintenance, unstable connectivity, a fragile local economy and inadequate maritime surveillance. Externally, Miangas benefits from national legal support, strategic policy status and Indonesia–Philippines cooperation, but faces threats from cross-border dependence, illegal fishing, border violations, environmental pressure and geopolitical sensitivity. The SWOT analysis places Miangas in the WO quadrant, meaning that external opportunities should first be used to overcome internal weaknesses. This article proposes the Civil-Military Corridor Resilience Model as an integrated framework that connects public services, logistics, energy, local markets, maritime security and territorial defence in one border resilience system.
Abstract:The tradition of visiting the tomb of Sultan Maulana Hasanuddin of Banten is a socio-religious practice that remains alive today and plays a significant role in the lives of the people of Banten. This tradition not only…
reflects religious rituals but also embodies historical, cultural, and spiritual values that shape the identity of the local community. This study aims to examine the tradition of visiting the tomb of Sultan Maulana Hasanuddin of Banten as a cultural heritage and a manifestation of the community’s spirituality. The research method employed is a qualitative approach using literature review and archival research. Data were obtained from historical books, scientific journal articles, theses, research reports, and other relevant supporting sources related to the study of pilgrimage, local Islamic culture, and the Sultanate of Banten. Data analysis was conducted using a descriptive-qualitative technique by examining and interpreting various sources to uncover the meanings, practices, and dynamics of the pilgrimage tradition. The results of the study indicate that the tradition of visiting the tomb of Sultan Maulana Hasanuddin possesses a strong spiritual dimension as a means of drawing closer to Allah, a medium for self-reflection, and the formation of individual and collective spirituality. Furthermore, the pilgrimage tradition also functions as an intangible cultural heritage that plays a role in preserving history, transmitting cultural values, and strengthening the identity of the Banten community. Amid the development of religious tourism and modernization, the pilgrimage tradition faces dynamics that require sustainable management to ensure that religious and cultural values remain preserved. This study concludes that the tradition of pilgrimage to the tomb of Sultan Maulana Hasanuddin of Banten is an important and relevant cultural-religious practice in maintaining the sustainability of the community’s spirituality and cultural identity.

il servants at the Education and Culture Office of West Kalimantan Province, seen from the aspects of: Accountability, Responsibility, and Responsiveness. The results of the study indicate that Accountability, Responsibility, and Responsiveness are key elements in reflecting the quality of civil servant performance at the Education and Culture Office of West Kalimantan Province. However, in its implementation, these three aspects have not been running optimally. ASN accountability is still hampered by a lack of discipline in reporting and minimal transparency of work results. Responsibility is also not fully reflected in ASN's commitment to carrying out duties and responsibilities professionally. On the other hand, responsiveness to community needs, especially in the fields of education and culture, is still relatively slow, which indicates a lack of active involvement of ASN in absorbing and responding to public aspirations quickly and appropriately. This research recommends strategic steps to strengthen accountability through a more structured and regularly monitored performance reporting system. Improving accountability can be achieved through ongoing development, professional ethics training, and consistent enforcement of work discipline. To enhance responsiveness, a more participatory and adaptive public service mechanism needs to be developed to meet community needs.

an exploratory case study design, focusing on the subjective experiences of both Islamic Education teachers and students regarding the application of love-based values in Islamic Education. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis, involving Islamic Education teachers and students from various grade levels. The findings indicate that the Love-Based Islamic Education Curriculum significantly enhances students' discipline, empathy, and social interaction. Storytelling and self-reflection methods were found to be effective in helping students internalize the values of love towards Allah, the Prophet, fellow humans, and nature. However, key challenges identified include the limited availability of relevant teaching materials and students' difficulties in applying love values outside the classroom. The study also highlights the importance of parental and community involvement in supporting the implementation of the Love-Based Islamic Education Curriculum beyond the school environment. The research recommends the development of more applicable teaching materials, ongoing teacher training, and stronger collaboration with parents to reinforce the values of love in students' daily lives. This study contributes significantly to the development of love-based curricula in Indonesian private schools.
