ABSTRACT
This study aims to analyze the role of the expenditure treasurer in supporting orderly financial administration at the Regional Inspectorate of Magelang City. Orderly financial administration is an important aspect of regional financial management aimed at ensuring transparency and accountability in the use of public funds. The expenditure treasurer has a strategic role in the financial administration process, starting from submitting payment requests, verifying supporting documents, and preparing accountability reports. This research employed a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The data sources consisted of primary data obtained through interviews with the expenditure treasurer and related staff, as well as secondary data obtained from financial administration documents at the Regional Inspectorate of Magelang City. The results indicate that the expenditure treasurer plays an important role in supporting orderly financial administration through managing petty cash funds, recording financial transactions, and preparing accountability reports (SPJ). In addition, the treasurer ensures that every transaction is supported by complete and valid documentation in accordance with applicable regulations. However, in its implementation there are still obstacles, namely the financial application system occasionally undergoes maintenance, which temporarily disrupts the data input process and the preparation of financial administration reports.

af flour substitution on the organoleptic characteristics, iron content, and proximate composition of dange cake and to determine the best formulation. An experimental study using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was conducted with four formulations: F1 (0 g), F2 (12 g), F3 (25 g), and F4 (37 g) Moringa leaf flour. Organoleptic testing used a 1–5 hedonic scale involving 30 untrained adolescent-girl panelists. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal–Wallis test because the organoleptic data were not normally distributed. The results showed no significant differences in color (p=0.543), aroma (p=0.067), or texture (p=0.085), whereas taste differed significantly (p<0.001). F2 had the highest mean rank for color (67.10), aroma (70.73), taste (82.27), and texture (68.70), and was therefore selected as the best formulation. Laboratory analysis of F2 showed protein 5.16%, fat 4.04%, carbohydrate 63.35%, moisture 23.75%, ash 1.70%, crude fiber 4.65%, and iron 17.10 mg/g as reported in the research results. The findings indicate that dange cake with 12 g Moringa leaf flour substitution has good sensory acceptance and potential to be developed as an iron-rich snack to support anemia prevention among adolescent girls.
Abstract:This study aims to understand the communication used by the leader, describe employee work discipline, and analyse the leadership communication strategy used to improve work discipline at the Somolo-Molo District Office.…
A descriptive qualitative case-study design was employed. Seven informants were selected purposively: one key informant (the District Head), two main informants (the District Secretary and the Head of General Affairs Subdivision), and four supporting informants (employees/staff). Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation and analysed through data reduction, data display, conclusion drawing, and verification. The findings show that leadership communication is open and two-way and combines meetings, assemblies, direct communication, letters/dispositions, digital media, and informal communication. Work discipline is categorised as fairly good but not yet fully consistent. In measurable qualitative terms, all seven informants described attendance as generally maintained, while all seven also identified occasional lateness and the need for stronger consistency; effective use of working hours, leave/out-of-office reporting, and completion of some tasks still require reminders. Leadership communication is implemented through informative, persuasive, educational, repetitive, role-modelling, personal coaching, supervision, gradual reprimand, proportionate firmness, evaluation, and positive reinforcement approaches. Identified improvements include better punctuality, more orderly absence reporting, more effective use of working hours, and faster task completion. Sustainable discipline requires consistent rule enforcement, routine briefings, documented follow-up, multichannel communication, and exemplary conduct across all levels of leadership.
Abstract:The rapid expansion of digital learning and artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly transformed educational systems worldwide, including in Ghana. However, the integration of digital technologies into education also…
so raises critical concerns regarding epistemological inequality, technological dependency, and the marginalization of indigenous knowledge systems. This study aims to critically examine digital learning in Ghana through a decolonial perspective by exploring the relationship between artificial intelligence, local knowledge, and future educational transformation. The study employed a qualitative conceptual approach based on critical literature review and decolonial theoretical analysis. Data sources consisted of scholarly articles, academic books, policy reports, and international publications related to digital learning, AI in education, indigenous knowledge systems, and postcolonial educational transformation. The findings reveal that contemporary digital learning systems frequently reproduce colonial epistemologies through linguistic dominance, curriculum standardization, algorithmic bias, and dependency on externally developed technological infrastructures. Indigenous languages and local knowledge systems remain underrepresented within mainstream educational technologies, limiting epistemic inclusivity and cultural relevance. Nevertheless, the study also identifies the transformative potential of culturally responsive AI, multilingual digital learning environments, and indigenous knowledge integration in constructing more equitable educational futures. The study concludes that decolonizing digital learning in Ghana requires the reconstruction of educational technologies grounded in epistemic justice, cultural dignity, local participation, and technological sovereignty. This article contributes to contemporary discussions on decolonial education, ethical AI, and digital transformation within the Global South by positioning digital learning as both a technological and epistemological arena of struggle.
Abstract:Financial crisis is a serious threat to economic stability, so an effective early warning system is needed to detect and anticipate potential risks early on. The implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) in financial…
l crisis early warning systems offers significant advantages through big data analysis capabilities, non-linear pattern detection, and more accurate and faster risk prediction than conventional methods. Studies have shown that machine learning and deep learning algorithms can improve crisis prediction accuracy, expand the scope of risk monitoring, and support more responsive decision-making by regulators and financial industry players. However, challenges such as data quality, security, model transparency, and human resource readiness still need to be addressed for optimal AI implementation. This study concludes that with good governance, investment in infrastructure and human resources, and adaptive regulations, AI can be a strategic tool in strengthening early warning systems and maintaining financial sector resilience in the digital era.

Abstract:This study aims to understand journalists' perceptions of the journalist competency test set by the Press Council as a standard of professionalism in the Indonesian press. Using a qualitative approach with a phenomenological…
ical method, this study involved five journalists in East Java, comprising three certified journalists and two who declined to participate in the competency test process. The data collected was analyzed using NVivo 15 software. The results showed that some journalists perceived the competency test as an administrative formality that did not guarantee competence and professionalism. The competency test also has no impact on their careers or welfare. However, informants stated that if carried out consistently and professionally, the competency test has the potential to fence press freedom from unethical practices and strengthen journalistic quality. This research also emphasizes the importance of revamping regulations and maintaining the Press Council in the implementation of journalist competency tests.
Abstract:This study aims to analyse the implementation of bureaucratic reform and its impact on public service transparency in Indonesia. Through a qualitative approach with a literature review, this study found that bureaucratic…
reforms carried out through organisational restructuring, simplification of procedures, strengthening human resources, and the use of information technology have encouraged the creation of more open and accountable public services. The digitisation of services and the public complaints system expanded public access to information and increased participation in service oversight. The results show that public service transparency has improved significantly, although challenges remain in terms of apparatus resistance and infrastructure limitations. Thus, bureaucratic reform plays an important role in realising governance that is transparent, efficient and responsive to the needs of society.
