Ibu Hamil 1

Universitas ‘Aisyiyah (UNISA) Yogyakarta shows its concern for the health of mothers and children. This time, through the Midwifery Study Program, UNISA Yogyakarta initiated the PERSIA Class (Preparation for Happy Childbirth and Prosperous Babies) aimed specifically at pregnant women in Banyuraden Village, Gamping, Sleman.

This community service activity was held on Saturday (02/11), and was attended by 37 pregnant women and local health cadres. The PERSIA class aims to provide comprehensive education to pregnant women about the process of pregnancy, childbirth, and baby care. The materials presented included mental and physical preparation before labor, relaxation techniques, newborn care, and the importance of nutrition for pregnant women and babies.

The head of Banyuraden Village TP PKK, Kwintartiningsih Puspo Putri, welcomed UNISA’s initiative. According to her, the PERSIA class is very beneficial for pregnant women in her area, considering the importance of careful preparation in facing childbirth.

“This activity provides valuable supplies for pregnant women, so that they can undergo pregnancy with more peace and comfort,” she said.

Nidatul Khofiyah, S.Keb., Bd., MPH, Head of UNISA’s community service team, explained that the main goal of the PERSIA class is to create a healthy and intelligent next generation.

“By providing the right education early on, we hope to reduce the stunting rate and improve the quality of life of children,” she said.

One of the important points discussed in the PERSIA class was the mental health of pregnant women. Ms. Suyani, S.ST., M.Keb, said that anxiety and depression are often experienced by pregnant women. Therefore, support from family and the environment is very important to maintain the mother’s mental health.

“Pregnancy is a time full of emotions. Support from husband, family, and health workers can help pregnant women overcome anxiety and stress,” said Bdn. Suyani.

Nuli Nuryanti Zulala, S.ST., M.Keb., also emphasized the importance of positive labor support. Good support can make the labor process more comfortable and enjoyable for the mother.

“Praise, touch, and clear explanations during labor can increase the mother’s confidence and reduce pain,” she explained.

In addition to labor preparation, PERSIA classes also provide parenting tips for expectant mothers. Participants are invited to understand the basic needs of babies, such as feeding, sleeping, and stimulation schedules. With sufficient knowledge, mothers are expected to provide the best care for their babies.

Pkkm

Universitas `Aisyiyah (UNISA) Yogyakarta received another visit from a team of evaluators from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology (Kemendikbudristek) in order to monitor and evaluate the Independent Campus Competition Program (PKKM) for the 2024 budget year. This activity took place in the courtroom of the Siti Moendjijah building, UNISA Yogyakarta, Monday (04/11).

PKKM is a flagship program of the Ministry of Education and Research that aims to provide opportunities for students to hone their skills outside the classroom. Through this program, students can participate in various activities such as internships, humanitarian projects, entrepreneurship, and research.

UNISA’s Commitment to PKKM

Dr. Sulistyaningsih, S.KM, MH.Kes, Vice Rector I of UNISA Yogyakarta, in her speech expressed her appreciation for the Ministry of Education and Culture’s trust in UNISA.

“We are very grateful for the opportunity to continue organizing PKKM. This program is in line with UNISA’s vision in producing graduates who not only excel academically, but also have competencies that are relevant to the needs of the world of work,” said Sulistyaningsih.

UNISA itself has been actively implementing PKKM since 2021. To ensure the program runs well, UNISA also routinely conducts internal monitoring and evaluation.

“We are committed to continuously improving the quality of PKKM implementation at UNISA,” she added.

The head of the evaluator team, Prof. Dr. Ir. Zulkarnain, M.Hort.Sc, said that the visit of the evaluator team to UNISA Yogyakarta aims to verify the documents and reports that have been prepared by the university.

“We will assess these documents to see how far the implementation of PKKM at UNISA has met the predetermined criteria,” Zulkarnain explained.

Furthermore, Zulkarnain also said that the evaluator team is open to input and suggestions from UNISA. “If there are things that need to be improved or added, we are ready to provide input,” he added.

With this visit from the Ministry of Education and Culture, it is hoped that UNISA can continue to improve the quality of PKKM implementation. This is in line with the government’s efforts in realizing Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM), a policy that provides hope for students to plan their own learning according to their interests and talents.

Minuman Keras

Strong protests from Muhammadiyah, Nahdlatul Ulama, and MUI have shaken Yogyakarta. These three large Islamic organizations firmly rejected the proliferation of liquor stores (alcohol) in the DIY area, the three organizations spoke out because the proliferation of alcohol stores in DIY had gone too far. Over the past two years, too many liquor stores have penetrated into villages in Yogyakarta. Even in santri villages, alcohol shops have been established. So the three mass organizations said one word: ENOUGH. There is no more tolerance for alcohol shops in DIY.

Liquor

Some argue that the proliferation of liquor stores in DIY is a consequence of DIY being a tourist destination, so the number of liquor stores is normal. It is a tourist destination. Of course, this reason is not correct. For decades, DIY has been pinned as a tourist destination and the existence of alcohol shops can be managed well by the government in accordance with Regional Regulation (Perda) No. 12 of 2015 concerning Control and Supervision of Alcoholic Beverages and Prohibition of Oplosan Drinks.

The emergence of the Job Creation Law in 2019 or often referred to as the Omnibus Law has triggered the establishment of uncontrolled liquor stores. For entrepreneurs, to open a business, it is now sufficient to obtain a Business Identification Number (NIB) which is obtained quite easily. The existence of this NIB eliminates the old business license rules, such as the Trading Business License (SIUP), Company Registration Certificate (TDP) and Nuisance Permit (HO), the existence of this new regulation makes it easier for alcohol stores to be established everywhere.

The persecution of two students of Krapyak Islamic Boarding School is the tip of the iceberg of the problem of alcohol shops in Yogyakarta. Right on the students’ day on Wednesday (23/10) the persecution occurred. This case began with a group of young people who were drunk and would make calculations to the wrong target, finally several Krapyak students who had just bought food at angkringan became the main target.

Before the persecution case occurred, the people who rejected the establishment of alcohol stores had been loudly voicing. After Muhammadiyah, Nahdlatul Ulama and MUI, then Forum Ukhuwah Islamiyah (FUI) DIY made a declaration rejecting the establishment of alcohol stores. The declaration was held at the DIY DPRD building and sent an audience letter to the Governor of DIY.

Not remaining silent, Nahdlatul Ulama DIY also held a Santri Memanggil demonstration to ask for clarity on the Krapyak santri persecution case. Santri Memanggil invited all elements of NU organizations and congregations in DIY. The location was also carried out in front of the DIY Police Chief, this location symbolizes law enforcement in the DIY area.
