Strategic Safety Stock Level For High Import Dependence Manufacturing Supply Chain For Enhanced Force Majeure Preparedness

Dong Eon Kim — 2025-07-07

This study aims to determine the appropriate safety stock levels to enhance PT. Sukses Pharmapack’s preparedness for force majeure events and ensure operational continuity. By analyzing demand patterns over a five-year period, the research evaluates the effectiveness of safety stock in mitigating supply chain disruptions through scenario-based simulations. A mixed-method approach is applied, combining qualitative insights from key stakeholders with quantitative analysis of demand and lead time data. Statistical techniques such as mean, standard deviation, Z-score, and coefficient of variation are used to assess demand and lead time variability, while the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) model with probability is employed to calculate optimal order quantities and safety stock levels. The findings indicate that a 30% increase in both demand and lead time results in the highest safety stock levels, improving service levels but raising inventory holding costs. Conversely, lower demand and shorter lead times reduce safety stock requirements but increase the risk of stockouts. The study is limited to a single product and supplier, which may restrict generalizability. Future research should explore multiple products and dynamic market conditions, implementing adaptive inventory policies with real-time demand monitoring.

The Effect of Oral Chitosan Supplementation on Leptin Levels and HOMA-IR in Male Wistar Rats (Rattus norvegicus) with an Obesity Model

Lidwina Stefani — 2025-07-05

This study investigates the role of chitosan in modulating leptin and insulin levels, key hormones involved in metabolic disorders, and compares its effectiveness with orlistat, a commonly used anti-obesity drug. An experimental post-test only group design was used involving 20 healthy male Wistar rats aged 3–4 months. After a seven-day acclimation, obesity was induced through a high-fat, high-glucose diet. The rats were then divided into five groups: a positive control group (K+) receiving orlistat, a negative control (K−) receiving a standard diet, and three treatment groups receiving chitosan at 2.5% (P1), 5% (P2), and 7.5% (P3) concentrations, respectively, for 14 days. Leptin and HOMA-IR levels were measured via blood samples collected from the retro-orbital sinus. The Kruskal-Wallis test showed significant differences among groups (p<0.05). Mean leptin levels were highest in K− (5.10±0.35 ng/dL) and lowest in K+ (3.03±0.71 ng/dL), while P2 showed a notable reduction (3.71±0.32 ng/dL). HOMA-IR levels followed a similar trend, with the lowest in K+ (1.00±0.08) and significantly reduced in P2 (1.34±0.11) compared to K− (2.29±0.25). Post Hoc analysis confirmed that P2 had significantly better outcomes than K−, though not as effective as orlistat. In conclusion, chitosan—particularly at 5% concentration—can reduce leptin and HOMA-IR levels, improving insulin resistance in obesity, though orlistat remains more effective.

Jason Clark Chen Tanujaya — 2025-07-08

A Morel-Lavallée Lesion (MLL) is a soft tissue injury caused by the sudden detachment of the skin and subcutaneous tissue from the underlying fascia, resulting in a closed degloving injury. It is often complicated by chronic osteomyelitis, which can present diagnostic challenges. We report a case of a 36-year-old male patient who developed an MLL with chronic osteomyelitis, initially mimicking gynecomastia. The patient presented with a mass in the chest area months after trauma, and clinical examination was inconclusive, with a history of diabetes mellitus and the lesion's proximity to the breast tissue complicating the differential diagnosis and raising suspicion for gynecomastia. However, a CT scan of the thorax revealed a MLL with underlying bone involvement, indicating chronic osteomyelitis. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges when typical findings may be misleading, emphasizing the need for comprehensive imaging and clinical correlation for accurate diagnosis and appropriate management.

Analysis of “Piece Rate Payment” Scheme To “Remote Internship” Participants Based on Labor Law

Muhammad Iqbal Wiranugraha — 2025-07-07

This research aims to determine the existence of a piece rate payment scheme that has an impact on the non-receipt of pocket money rights for remote internship participants, which should be obtained based on Indonesian Labor Law. This legal research is conducted with a doctrinal type research method that presents a systematic explanation of regulations, synchronization between laws and regulations and policy analysis in a prescriptive analytical manner to provide coherence truth. The results show that the Piece Rate Payment scheme has the potential to deprive remote internship participants of their rights in terms of pocket money. This is because the payment of pocket money will not be fulfilled by the company if the intern does not meet a certain target based on the internship contract. In addition, because Law No. 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower and Regulation of the Minister of Manpower and Transmigration No. PER.08/MEN/V/2008 concerning Procedures for Licensing and Implementation of Overseas Apprenticeship, do not regulate the allowance payment scheme. So, the economic protection efforts that can be done are by providing provisions in the relevant regulations regarding the company's obligation to provide a non-target-based allowance scheme, as well as supervision of overseas apprenticeship providers.

Challenges in the Implementation of Free Prior and Informed Consent for Indigenous Peoples in Indonesia's National Legal Regulation

Rahmi Jasim — 2025-07-05

This research discusses the challenges of implementing Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) for indigenous peoples in national legal arrangements in Indonesia. FPIC is a principle that gives indigenous peoples the right to give consent to policies that affect their territories and resources freely, prior to full information, and without pressure. Although the FPIC rights of indigenous peoples are implicitly described and regulated in various national regulations, such as the 1945 Constitution, Forestry Law, Village Law, and environmental regulations, these arrangements do not necessarily guarantee the protection of indigenous peoples' rights over their customary territories. Explicit legal arrangements are needed to guarantee indigenous peoples' FPIC rights over their customary territories. This is because in its implementation, the application of FPIC rights still faces various challenges such as conflicts of interest with the State's Right to Control (HMN), low understanding in the field, and gender injustice being the main obstacles. This study uses a normative juridical approach to identify differences between international and national legal arrangements, and offers recommendations to improve the protection and implementation of FPIC in Indonesia. The research emphasizes the importance of explicit legal arrangements to achieve justice, prosperity and harmony between indigenous peoples and the government.

Albert Christoper — 2025-07-05

The digital transformation era has revolutionized how public institutions, including the police, interact with society. Amid rising demands for transparency and two-way communication, social media platforms like Instagram have become strategic channels for delivering educational messages and reinforcing institutional legitimacy. However, systematic studies on how police narratives are constructed and disseminated in digital spaces remain limited. This research aims to analyze the digital communication strategies of the police on Instagram, identify dominant keywords, and map thematic clusters using a netnographic approach supported by NVivo 15 software. Primary data included Instagram Ads content, captions, and reels from official police accounts, while secondary data comprised academic literature and institutional reports. Methods involved digital documentation, word frequency analysis, and cluster visualization. Findings revealed that police narratives emphasize operational duties (e.g., patrol, coordination), public service, and professional image-building, with keywords like protection and violation appearing frequently. Cluster analysis highlighted the alignment between institutional functions and communication strategies. The study concludes that NVivo enhances the validity of netnographic research, offering insights into the dynamics of institutional digital communication. Practical implications include recommendations for data-driven communication strategies for public institutions, while theoretical contributions expand the literature on digital netnography and police-public engagement.
