This study attempts to apply Failure Mode Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) to improve the safety of a production system, specifically the production process of an oil company. Since food processing is a worldwide issue and self-management of a food company is more important than relying on government regulations, therefore this study focused on that matter. The initial step of this study is to identify and analyze the criticality of the potential failure modes of the production process. Furthermore, take corrective action to minimize the probability of repeating the same failure mode, followed by a re-analysis of its criticality. The results of corrective actions were compared with those before improvement conditions by testing the significance of the difference using two sample t-test. The final measured result is the Criticality Priority Number (CPN), which refers to the severity category of the failure mode and the probability of occurrence of the same failure mode. The recommended actions proposed by the FMECA significantly reduce the CPN compared with the value before improvement, with increases of 38.46% for the palm olein case study.

In Indonesia, 99.8% of the businesses are SMEs. However, those SMEs only contribute to the 56.7% of the Indonesia GDP. This happened, mainly due to the limitations of SMEs which use traditional technologies in the production process. Therefore, in 2014, the Indonesian government through the Ministry of Cooperation and Small Medium Entreprises launced a new strategic plan to empowering the SMEs by applying the Advanced Manufacting Technology (AMT). It is believed that by applying the AMT in the SMEs can increase productivities, expand the market share and raised national economic growth. This study, identified the used of AMT in the Indonesia SMEs, especially in foods, beverages, herbal and handicraft sectors. Additionally, it is also measured the impact of the used of AMT in the SMEs' performaces. In this study, it is found that 76.6 % of the total sampel (253 SMEs) declared that they use the AMT. This indicates that the Indonesia SMEs have a clear operation mission, process production, high quality products and meet the customer's satisfaction. It is also found that the percentage of the hard technology is higher than the soft technology. This showed that there is a large effort to increase the productivity in the process production. Finally, we found that the impact of the AMT used to the SMEs' performance in the market share, profitability and organization performance is increased significantly.

Competition to become the sole owner of Newmont Nusa Tenggara shares is very intense. Central government, local government, and house of representative are participating to obtain 31% shares of Newmont Nusa Tenggara, multinational corporation that operates in copper and gold mines. House of representatives is try to blocked the purchase of Newmont shares by government, with asking help from supreme audit agency (BPK) to support their claim. Specifically, based on this case, new tendency emerges in state capitalism in Indonesia, which is the emergence of capitalist and local government. This fierce competition between these actors proves that in Indonesia, the struggle to manage resource is not run by economic sense, but also political one.

A study of energy diversification in Indonesia and the how role of coalliquefaction if implemented w conducted. Liquified brown coal fuel (LBCF) is apotential alternative energy for substituting crude oil, which is processed toproduce synthetic fuel from coal. In addition, the government policy on reducingoil dependency makes the liquified brown coal fuel an option which must berealized soon. This paper reveals that LBCF is very prospective in order tosupport energy diversification program. In 2014 LBCF from Berau plant wouldsubstitute Balikpapan oil refinery throughput as much as 20% or about 57.99 PJ.It increases to 42.5% or 173.96 PJ in 2020. LPG produced as side product ofliquefaction plant could be used to support LPG supplied by LPG plant Aral andBadak and Balikpapan oil refinery. The amount of the substitution is increasingup to 56% in 2018, or at a rate of 19.52% per year.Kata kunci: coal liquefaction, diversification, liquid petroleum gas

Di Indonesia, Angka Kematian Bayi (AKB) masih yang tertinggi di negara-negara ASEAN. Penyebab utama kematian anak balita tersebut adalah penyakit infeksi saluran nafas dan diare yang dapat dicegah antara lain dengan pemberian ASI secara benar dan tepat. Pada periode 2002-2003, sekitar 95,9% balita sudah mendapat ASI, tetapi hanya 38,7 % balita mendapat ASI pertama satu jam setelah lahir. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui berbagai faktor yang berhubungan dengan pemberian ASI dalam satu jam pertama setelah melahirkan. Penelitian ini menggunakan sumber data sekunder SDKI 2002-2003 dengan desain cross sectional. Sampel berjumlah 6.018 terdiri dari ibu yang memiliki anak berusia 0 – 24 bulan terakhir yang masih hidup dan dilahirkan tanpa operasi dan mendapat ASI. Analisis data dilakukan dengan model regresi logistik multivariat. Ditemukan proporsi pemberian ASI satu jam pertama setelah melahirkan adalah 38,3%. Faktor dominan yang berhubungan dengan pemberian ASI dalam satu jam pertama adalah tenaga periksa hamil. Faktor lain adalah daerah tempat tinggal, kehamilan diinginkan, tenaga periksa hamil, penolong persalinan, akses terhadap radio, dan berat lahir. Terdapat interaksi antara daerah dengan tenaga periksa, kehamilan diinginkan dengan tenaga periksa, dan berat lahir dengan penolong persalinan. Perlu upaya meningkatkan pengetahuan dan motivasi petugas kesehatan mengenai pentingnya ASI segera dan ASI eksklusif, upaya peningkatan pengetahuan ibu dan calon ibu mengenai tata laksana pemberian ASI yang benar serta program ke- luarga berencana.Kata kunci : ASI satu jam pertama, faktor risiko, SDKI 2002 – 2003.Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) in Indonesia is still the highest among the other ASEAN countries. The major cause for infant and children mortality is infections, espe- cially the upper respiratory tracts infection and diarrhea. The prevention efforts for reducing the infections are a good nutrition management for infant and children such as adequate and appropriate breastfeeding. A good start for breastfeeding is about 30 minutes after delivery. The Indonesia DHS 2002-2003 showed that 95.5% children under five have already have breast-milk, but only 38.7% of them are having the first breast-milk within one hour after delivery. The Objective of this study is to know the factors related to the breastfeeding given within one hour after delivery. The study uses secondary source of data of the Indonesia DHS 2002-2003 with a cross-sectional design. The number of sample is 6.018, which are mothers who have the latest life child aged 0 to 24 months and still having breastfed and de- livered without surgery. Data are analyzed using the application multivariate logistic regression. The study has found that the proportion of breastfeeding given within one hour after delivery as high as 38.28%. The dominant factor related to the breastfeeding given within one hour after delivery is the antenatal care provider. Other factor are: the residential location, wanted pregnancy, the antenatal care provider, birth attendance, accessibility on radio, and newborn's weight. There is an inter-action between residential location and the antenatal care provider, wanted pregnancy and the antenatal care provider, and newborn's weight and the birth atten- dance. There is a need to make an effort on: increasing the knowledge and motivation for the health provider about the importance of the immediate administration of breastfeeding to the newborn and the exclusive breastfeeding. The efforts should be supported by government policy.Key words : Breastfed in first one hour, risk factor, IDHS 2002-2003.

This study explores thematic progression patterns within the systemic functional linguistics (SFL) and the selection of words identified in writing within the diplomatic workplace. Politeness strategy employed between government to government communication through written diplomatic texts and its relationship with theme and rheme progression is the focus of this study. It is also aimed at raising host country EFL diplomat as well as university students' awareness of progression patterns and the importance of persuasive writing to mitigate confrontational notions. Many researches have been conducted on public diplomacy and international relations on speeches or verbal texts but no studies on written text communication between a diplomatic office in a foreign country with the host country office announcing the arrival or departure of a diplomat from a foreign nation. To fill that gap is the reason of this study is aiming. A descriptive qualitative study was employed to analyze the theme-rheme progression patterns on a third-party-type diplomatic text of the Embassy of the United States of America addressed to the host country diplomatic consular section of the Department of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia in Jakarta. SFL theory was applied particularly in analyzing the textual meta-function of the text to find the theme-rheme progression patterns. The result showed that the distribution of themes and rhemes in the text being analyzed follows the simple progression category.

The observation of the progress made in studying "fear of missing out" is interesting, specifically with a focus on analyzing the possible existence of a strong correlation between the concept and the antecedents widely involved in most of these studies such as neuroticism. This meta-analysis was conducted to measure the correlation between neuroticism and fear of missing out by considering the size of the effect. The process involved using 13,685 participants from 23 eligible studies as samples. The results showed that neuroticism was positively correlated to fear of missing out at a moderate strength as indicated by r = .369 and 95% CI (.29, .44). Similar results were also found for adolescents and emerging adulthood groups (95% CI [.272, .460]) as well as the common group and workers (95% CI [.249, .488]). Moreover, the heterogeneity test showed good significance, the distribution of scores was considered symmetrical except in adolescents and emerging adulthood, and no publication bias was detected. The moderate level of correlation reported showed the possibility of involving neuroticism as an antecedent of fear of missing out. However, the effect could become stronger when it was involved with other external antecedents.

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Late presentation of Acute Appendicitis (AA) is associated with a high risk of perforation-related complications and morbidity. Even though AA is a well-known disease, late presented AA is not uncommon. This study aims to report the treatment outcome of several cases of late presented AA, treated at a government public hospital at Mojokerto, a small town in East Java, Indonesia, where no previous report were known. CASE PRESENTATION: Eleven patients experienced surgical removal of the appendix during one year period (January 2021 until December 2021). Those patients are treated by one surgeon at Dr. Wahidin Sudiro Husodo Kota Mojokerto Hospital. Furthermore, they were divided into 3 groups, (A: presented within 2 days after onset of abdominal pain; B: presented within 2–5 days after onset of abdominal pain; C: presented more than 5 days after onset of abdominal pain). The morbidities for all patients were studied, which they all followed up until the surgery wound healed completely. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: The perforation of the appendix occurred in 7 patients consisting of 2 in Group A, 2 in Group B, and 3 in Group C. Furthermore, the two patients who experienced extension of surgical resection were all from Group C and this group has 10.67 days of highest Length of Stay (LOS). The two patients with perforated AA, 1 from group A and 1 from group C, developed surgical site infection. The main reason for the late presentation of AA was non-operative treatment due to equivocal clinical findings. CONCLUSION: The late presentation of AA causes perforation-associated morbidities, including a possible extension of surgical resection, long hospitalization period, and surgical site infection. Some late presented AA does not develop into perforation since perforated and non-perforated AA may represents two different entities.
