    Pengamalan Nilai-Nilai Pancasila, Mendorong Kualitas Ekonomi dan Sumber Daya Manusia yang Unggul

     

    Pancasila sebagai ideologi bangsa menjadi pagar pengamanan bangsa dari pengaruh negatif dari luar. Dalam konteks ekonomi, nilai Pancasila menjadi platform pembangunan manusia untuk meningkatkan daya saing bangsa.

    Ekonomi kerakyatan diharapkan menjadi tulang punggung kesejahteraan masyarakat dan melalui pemberdayaan masyarakat, kita bisa unggul dalam menghadapi tantangan global khususnya di revolusi industri 4.0.

    Hal itu disampaikan Prof. Djoko Suhardjanto, Dekan Fakultas Ekonomi dan Bisnis Universitas Sebelas Maret (FEB UNS) dalam sambutannya di Seminar Pancasila sebagai Platform Pembangunan Manusia & Kebudayaan, di Aula Gedung 4 FEB UNS, Senin 19/8/2019.

    Senada dengan pernyataan di atas, Lia Kian, Staf Khusus Ketua Dewan Pengarah di Badan Pembinaan Ideologi Pancasila (BPIP) yang menjadi salah satu narasumber seminar menyatakan bahwa Pancasila sebagai ideologi bangsa harus kita tanamkan di seluruh gerak dan fikir dalam aktifitas sehari hari, terlebih di dunia pendidikan.

    “Dalam mengejar kualitas ekonomi dan sumber daya manusia yang unggul, ada 5 platform yang harus kita kuasai dan aplikasikan, yaitu moral agama, moral kemanusiaan, moral nasionalisme ekonomi, moral kerakyatan, dan moral keadilan” jelas Kian

    Disisi lain, Bambang Saroso, akademisi FEB UNS, memberikan sorotan kepada dunia pendidikan khususnya yang masih menerapkan teori-teori ekonomi dari luar yang masih kurang relevan dengan nilai-nilai ekonomi pancasila.

    Seminar di FEB UNS mengambil tema Membumikan Nilai-Nilai Pancasila dalam Ekonomi Kerakyatan dan Pemberdayaan Masyarakat yang diikuti oleh dosen dan mahasiswa baru FEB UNS juga menghadirkan tokoh-tokoh terkenal yang merupakan ikon Pancasila yakni Handaka Vijjananda, pengusaha farmasi dan Livi Zheng, sutradara film.

    Pemahaman Halal yang Berkembang di Masyarakat, Pacu Perkembangan Fintech Syariah

    Fintech syariah (fintech) telah memberikan beberapa penawaran dalam pinjaman model yang lebih mudah dibandingkan dengan fintech konvensional, layanan pembayaran digital dan layanan keuangan cakupan dengan pencatatan keuangan dan penjelasan serta konsultasi.

    Namun, interaksi masyarakat yang masih rendah, sekitar 29,7%, sarana dan infrakstruktur yang belum menunjang, serta kurangnya pemahaman akad dari pemegang saham dan investor masih menjadi tantangan fintech syariah.

    Hal itu disampaikan Achmad Buchori, Advisor Strategis Committee dan Pusat Riset Otoritas Jasa Keuangan RI dalam Focus Group Discussion (FGD) yang diselenggarakan FEB UNS bekerja sama dengan Bank Syariah Mandiri, Jumat 9/8/2019.

    Dijelaskannya lagi bahwa fintech syariah akan semakin berkembang dengan pemahaman halal yang berkembang di masyarakat.

    Disisi lain, Erwin Haryono menyoroti, bahwa telah banyak fintech yang mulai menggerogoti bank dan  e-commers yang berjalan seperti Alibaba memiliki alipays, yang baru 4 tahun saja sudah dapat memberikan kredit pada UMKM.

    “Bank harus bertransformasi menjadi digital open banking” tegasnya

    Selain menghadirkan keynote speaker,Achmad Bukhori dan Erwin Haryono (Direktur Eksekutif Kebijakan Sistem Pembayaran Bank Indonesia),  forum ini juga menghadirkan dua pembicara lain yakni Iskandar Zulkarnain (Anggota Badan Pengelola Keuangan Haji RI), , dan Irwan Trinugroho (Akademisi FEB UNS).

    Halal Understanding That Develops in Community Encourage the Development of Sharia Fintech

    Sharia Fintech offers various lending option with many facilities compared to conventional Fintech. This covers digital payment and financial service with transparent accounting and consultation. However, low community interaction (approximately 29.7%), not-supported infrastructure, and lack of sharia agreement (akad) from the shareholders and investor side remain become a challenge for the development of Sharia Fintech.
    This matter was explained by Achmad Buchori, from the Advisory Strategic Committee and Research Center of the Indonesia Financial Service Authority (OJK), during a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) on Friday, August 8th, 2019, which organized by FEB UNS in collaboration with Bank Syariah Mandiri. He adds that, Sharia Fintech will develop along with the community understanding on halal concept.
    On the other side, Erwin Haryono points out that there are many Fintech firms that are starting to undermine the banking institutions such as Alibaba with its Alipays, which can offer credits to MSMEs in China within only 4 (four) years of operation.
    “Banks should transform to be a digital open banking,” he specifically states.
    Aside from the two keynote speakers Achmad Bukhori and Erwin Haryono (Executive Director of Payment System Policy, Bank of Indonesia), the FGD also invite Iskandar Zulkarnain (member of the Republic Indonesia Hajj Financial Management Agency) and Dr. Irwan Trinugroho (FEB UNS academic staff).

     

  • JOB VACANCY “BUSINESS WATCH INDONESIA”

  • The FEB International Relations Division Invites AIESEC Members in a Discussion

    The FEB International Relations Division Invites AIESEC Members in a Discussion

    Most of the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia are comfortable in conducting their business and marketing traditionally and manually. These are significantly different from those in other countries that seeks for simplicity and practicality, where payments are usually made digitally (cashless), which is a rare occasion in Indonesia. This opinion was expressed by international students who are invited to a Discussion in Wednesday, July 24th, 2019 in FEB UNS Main Hall (3rd Building). Those opinion was given when Lintang Ayuninggar from International Relations Division questioning the students on the matter.

    Tastaftiyan, who also the member of Internationalization Team, asked the participant whether it is correct that employers, in the future, will not need diploma certificate but will require skill and competence more. Which mean that the interest in pursuing higher degree (university level) for the next 10 to 20 year will diminished, because they can learn anything online. In general, the participants responses are disagreeing with the statement. They argue that even though some companies do not require diploma certificate, but most vacancies require diploma certificate for/during administrative selection. They also argue that university does not only serve as a place to obtain diploma certificate but also a place for the students to get experiences.

    The discussion went smoothly with total 18 participants from various countries such as Canada, the US, China, Vietnam, Morocco, Poland, and France. Other topics covered, beside international curriculum and entrepreneurship, are the students exchange and double degree programs. All participants are the member of Association Internationale des Etudiants en Sciences Economiques et Commerciales (AIESEC), who visit Solo for the annual social project in the Summer Project 2019. This year AIESEC Summer Project covers 4 (four) social projects namely Entrevolution 9.0, Kids n Care 2.0, Eduvaganza 3.0, and Global Village. The project will take place starting on June 17th to August 24th, 2019.

    It is expected that the program will help the citizen to solve social problems especially in finding variation in business strategy.

  • Countering Radicalism through Cultural Approach

    Countering Radicalism through Cultural Approach

     

    Radicalism is an ideology, concept, though, or action that aims to change an established social order either toward negative or positive direction. This was expressed by Prof. Djoko Suhardjanto, the Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB) UNS during his opening remarks in National Seminar in Countering Radicalism through Cultural Approach, Friday July 27th, 2019.

    In front of 300 (three hundred) participants, Prof. Djoko Suhardjanto, explains that to prevent a negative radicalism, we can use cultural approach. “Urip sing urup memayu hayuning bawono (translit. life should benefit others around us and must strive for salvation, happiness and welfare), as we live, we should benefit other, if we can implement this value, certainly we can prevent radicalism,” he explains. Courtesy as the noble value in Javanese culture should be applied in daily life, to have tepo-seliro (translit. feeling what others feel), grapyak (translit. friendly or hospitable), lembah manah (translit. modest or position oneself in the low and humble position), harmonious life, and ewuh pakewuh (translit. hesitation to refuse/to frankly speak about feeling, less assertive) can also counters for the radicalism.

    Similar message was expressed by Abdul Kharis Almasyhari, the Chairman of the 1st Commission in the Republic of Indonesia House of Representative (DPR), stating that most of the current issues can be solved through cultural approach. “In this developed technology era, we are required to find an alternative solution through the national culture. Electricity can be cut, if the operation of communication providers is disrupted cellular communication will be interrupted.

    However, all those can be solved using cultural approach, where we have kenthongan (a ‘slit-drum’ idiophone used as a signal instrument used by neighbourhood night watchmen) as a traditional security communication tool,” Almasyhari explains. Further, he mentions that the system on RT (lowest structure in village government) and RW (higher structure, which consist of several RTs) is implemented optimally through community meeting, personal approach, and mutual control mechanism among the citizen, most of the problems arise, including radicalism, can be solved.

    The seminar was conducted in the main FEB Hall (3rd Building), organized by FEB UNS in collaboration with the 1st Commission in the Republic of Indonesia House of Representative (DPR) and the Ministry of Communication and Information. For the night, FEB UNS also held a shadow puppet performance by Ki Warseno Slenk as the dhalang (puppeteer in Indonesian wayang performance), with the story of ‘Wisanggeni Lair’ (the birth of Wisanggeni).

    In the future, the Dean of FEB UNS mention that they will continue to schedule cultural events at FEB UNS during semester breaks. This event aims to maintain and preserve local culture while introduce them to the young generation. The event can also strengthen the connection among the alumni, students, and academic staff through a friendly event. This will be in line with the spirit of UNS as the Fortress of Pancasila to ward off the negative radicalism.
