Problematics of State Civil Apparatus Productivity Towards Bureaucracy Streamliness
The phenomenon of problems faced in increasing the productivity of the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) in Indonesia is closely related to the mismatch between the composition of positions and the competencies possessed by ASN. This is further exacerbated by efforts to simplify the bureaucracy that have not been fully supported by increasing the ability and mastery of technology, which has the potential to hinder efficiency in public services. This article aims to analyze and describe 1) How the match between the composition and competency of the State Civil Apparatus affects the productivity of the bureaucracy in Indonesia; and 2) evaluate the effectiveness of bureaucratic simplification and equalization of positions in increasing the efficiency of decision-making and matching the composition of ASN with the existing workload. The research method used is a qualitative method. The data analysis used is an interactive model analysis consisting of three analysis components, namely: 1) Data Reduction; 2) Data Presentation; 3) Data Verification and Conclusion Drawing. The results of the article show that: 1) the mismatch between the composition and competency of ASN is still a major challenge in increasing the productivity of the bureaucracy in Indonesia. Countries with efficient bureaucratic systems such as Singapore and Estonia show that ASN placement based on strict competency evaluation can optimize performance, even though the age of the ASN is older. Therefore, Indonesia needs to adopt a more comprehensive approach, such as a continuous training system that is tailored to the needs of specific sectors, to improve the quality of ASN and streamline the bureaucratic structure to achieve higher productivity; 2) bureaucratic simplification and job equalization can match the composition of ASN with the workload more efficiently, allowing for faster and more responsive decision-making. An early retirement scheme can be a solution to replace less adaptive ASN with a workforce that is better prepared to face the challenges of technology and organizational dynamics. However, the success of bureaucratic simplification depends on the competence of the remaining ASN, who must be ensured to have skills that match the demands of change and the needs of the organization.
The Effect of Audit Committee and Board Independence in Determining Firm Value: Evidence from Maritime Companies in Indonesia
Corporate governance mechanisms, particularly the roles of the audit committee and independent commissioners, are increasingly examined in relation to their influence on firm value through the quality of financial reporting. This study aims to examine the effect of the audit committee and board independence on firm value through the mediating role of financial reporting quality. The study employs a quantitative explanatory design using secondary data from annual reports of maritime transport companies during 2020–2024. Samples were selected through purposive sampling, and data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS 4.0. The results indicate that the audit committee has a positive and significant effect on firm value, while board independence has no significant impact. Financial reporting quality positively affects firm value but does not mediate the relationship between the audit committee or board independence and firm value. The study contributes theoretically to corporate governance literature and provides practical insights for public companies to strengthen audit functions and the reliability of financial reporting.

Sosialisasi Penggunaan Anggaran Dana Desa Untuk Meningkatkan Pembangunan Infrastruktur Desa Molowahu
Pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman dan kesadaran warga terkait penggunaan anggaran dana desa dalam pembangunan infrastruktur desa. Penelitian ini mengidentifikasi sejumlah masalah yang dihadapi oleh masyarakat terkait pengelolaan dana desa, antara lain kurangnya pengetahuan warga terkait mekanisme penggunaan dana desa, arogansi Kepala Desa, ketidaksesuaian Rencana Anggaran Belanja (RAB) dengan pelaksanaan, ketidaksesuaian pekerjaan dengan spesifikasi yang telah ditetapkan, tidak adanya nota pembelian bahan, manipulasi nota, item pekerjaan yang tidak dikerjakan, pekerjaan yang tidak selesai, pekerjaan yang tidak dapat digunakan, aliran keuangan yang tidak jelas, penggunaan alat berat yang berlebihan, dan perubahan pekerjaan yang tidak jelas. Berdasarkan permasalahan tersebut di peroleh solusi antara lain pekerjaan yang akan dikerjakan harus berdasarkan permusyawaran dan permufakatan, penjelasan teknis pekerjaan, keterlibatan ruang lebih fasilitator teknis, keterlibatan tenaga teknis yang memahami RAB dalam pelaksanaan pekerjaan, laporan teknis, serta pengawasan dan Monitoring
Sustainable Self-Compacting Concrete: The Role of Limestone Powder as A Cement Replacement
The excessive use of cement in concrete production contributes significantly to environmental impacts, particularly CO? emissions. One potential solution is the partial replacement of cement with limestone powder in self-compacting concrete (SCC). This study aimed to investigate the effect of limestone powder as a partial cement replacement on the fresh properties and compressive strength of SCC. Limestone powder was used at replacement levels of 0%, 6%, 9%, 12%, and 15% by weight of cement. The fresh properties of SCC were evaluated using slump flow, V-funnel, and L-box tests, while compressive strength tests were conducted to assess hardened performance. The results showed that SCC mixtures containing up to 9% limestone powder satisfied the SCC workability requirements. The optimum performance was achieved at 6% limestone powder replacement, which produced a slump flow diameter of 600 mm and compressive strength of 29.58 MPa, exceeding the design strength target of 25 MPa. Higher replacement levels reduced both workability and compressive strength, with the 15% mixture failing to meet acceptable performance criteria. These findings indicate that limestone powder can be effectively utilized as a sustainable partial cement replacement in SCC at moderate replacement levels while maintaining satisfactory fresh and hardened properties.

Glut corn is a local commodity with significant potential for development as a value-added food ingredient. However, limited product innovation, technical skills, and marketing strategies remain major challenges for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Mulonegoro Village, Pulubala District, Gorontalo Regency. This community service activity aims to describe the implementation of training in the production of glutinous corn-based processed products and assess its impact on increasing the capacity of MSMEs. The method used was a qualitative participatory approach through preparation, entrepreneurship training, and practice. Participants produced product innovations in the form of glutinous corn sticks, and demonstrated readiness to market their products independently. These findings confirm that local potential-based training can strengthen MSME motivation, increase product competitiveness, and open opportunities for village economic development. In conclusion, utilizing glutinous corn through diversified processed products not only supports the sustainability of MSMEs but can also be a strategy for economic empowerment based on local wisdom. Further research is recommended to explore digital marketing strategies and partnership models that can expand the reach of glutinous corn-based MSME products.
