The Effects of Australia's Foreign Policy on Indonesia Post-Independence Timor Leste

As initially, Australia supported the integration of Timor Leste into the Republic of Indonesia, many events occurred which caused the relationship between Indonesia and Australia to be slightly disturbed. The changes that have taken place in Australia's relationship with Indonesia illustrate the real effects of Timor-Leste's independence. As a result of Australia's role in the East Timorese independence process, its relationship underwent many changes, especially in the political and military fields. The changes taking place in military relations are evident. The Agreement on Mutual Security (AMS) was released, the joint training was canceled, and the troops that used to work together became enemies. Eventually, Australian arms sales to Indonesia were stopped. Changes in the political and diplomatic sphere, including all political visits, were canceled, and politicians within Australia and Indonesia publicly denounced others. Furthermore, cooperation within the global framework is limited, and the Ambassador's 'high alert' status is. Overall, Australia's relations with Indonesia became hostile. This study aims to determine how the influence of Australian foreign policy on Indonesia after the independence of Timor Leste. This research shows that the independence of Timor Leste and Australia's role in this process directly influenced government relations between Australia and Indonesia. Most Indonesians view the Australian government's actions and policies as separate from its relationship with Australian citizens.

Strengthening Military Defense Resources to Non-Military in Facing Nuclear Emergencies to Support National Defense

Indonesia has the potential for a nuclear emergency, so it is necessary to prepare resources to deal with nuclear emergencies to minimize losses. A nuclear emergency caused by a nuclear reactor accident is a non-military defense sector as the main component supported by other elements of the nation's power. Nuclear Biology and Chemical Company of the Indonesian Armed Forces Army (Kizinubika) is another element of the nation's power that provides reinforcement in non-military defense in the face of nuclear emergencies. The purpose of this study is to strengthen the Kizinubika resources for the Nuclear Energy Supervisory Agency (Bapeten) and the Directorate for the Management of Nuclear Facilities at the National Research and Innovation Agency (DPFKN-BRIN) in dealing with nuclear emergencies in order to support national defense. This type of research is qualitative by using literature study, observation, and interview methods. Internal resource criteria are determined based on the Resources Based View (RBV) theory. The results of the study in the form of recommended resources in strengthening the Kizinubika against Bapeten and DPFKN-BRIN in the form of; (1) The use of the Kizinubika facility as a joint training facility and infrastructure; (2) The use of special equipment Kizinubika in support of nuclear emergency response; (3) Kizinubika's strategic location close to DPFKN-BRIN supports speed in emergency response; (4) Use of Kizinubika's Human Resources through joint training in increasing the quantity and quality of training; and (5) Kizinubika's internal organizational relations support the task of dealing with nuclear emergencies.

A Robust Invariant Local Feature Matching Method for Changing Scenes

The precise evaluation of camera position and orientation is a momentous procedure of most machine vision tasks, especially visual localization. Aiming at the shortcomings of local features of dealing with changing scenes and the problem of realizing a robust end-to-end network that worked from feature detection to matching, an invariant local feature matching method for changing scene image pairs is proposed, which is a network that integrates feature detection, descriptor constitution, and feature matching. In the feature point detection and descriptor construction stage, joint training is carried out based on a neural network. In the feature point extraction and descriptor construction stage, joint training is carried out based on a neural network. To obtain local features with solid robustness to viewpoint and illumination changes, the Vector of Locally Aggregated Descriptors based on Neural Network (NetVLAD) module is introduced to compute the degree of correlation of description vectors from one image to another counterpart. Then, to enhance the relationship between relevant local features of image pairs, the attentional graph neural network (AGNN) is introduced, and the Sinkhorn algorithm is used to match them; finally, the local feature matching results between image pairs are output. The experimental results show that, compared with the existed algorithms, the proposed method enhances the robustness of local features of varying sights, performs better in terms of homography estimation, matching precision, and recall, and when meeting the requirements of the visual localization system to the environment, the end-to-end network tasks can be realized.

Optimalisasi Sinergitas TNI-Polri Dalam Penanggulangan Terorisme di Indonesia

This study aims to describe the synergy between TNI and Polri in countering terrorism. This research uses a mixed method with a SWOT analysis (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat) to find the best strategies in increasing the synergy between TNI and Polri in countering terrorism. This research concludes that there is a need for a Presidential Decree which contains technical operational regulations so that the TNI's involvement mechanism is clearer in countering terrorism, command and control in countering acts of terrorism is one of the main factors that determine the success of operations. The ability of the TNI and Polri to cope with actions terrorism is still not optimal because of the lack of intensity of joint training in counterterrorism, as well as a narrow, negative and overblown understanding of "esprit de corps" will have negative implications for application in everyday life and in assignment situations, especially in counterterrorism involving the TNI and Polri.d short conclusion. The abstract should only be typed in one paragraph and one-column format.

Implementation of Innovative Technologies in the System of Joint Training of a General Practitioner and a Nurse in an Outpatient Clinic

Modernization of outpatient and polyclinic care, including a pandemic time, supposes the involvement of each employee in the process of optimizing medical activities and maximum focus on the patient. In this regard, the training of primary care specialists must include training in the elements of lean production and mastering the skills of joint work of the doctor-nurse tandem, which will allow graduates of medical universities and colleges to be prepared for professional activities in a real polyclinic service.

Elbow Joint Angles in Elbow Flexor Unilateral Resistance Exercise Training Determine Its Effects on Muscle Strength and Thickness of Trained and Non-trained Arms

The present study compared two unilateral arm curl resistance exercise protocols with a different starting and finishing elbow joint angle in the same ROM for changes in elbow flexors strength and muscle thickness of the trained and non-trained arms. Thirty-two non-resistance trained young adults were randomly assigned to one of the three groups: extended joint training (0°–50°; EXT, n = 12); flexed joint training (80°–130°; FLE, n = 12); and non-training control (n = 8). The exercise training was performed by the dominant arms twice a week for 5 weeks with gradual increases in the training volume over 10 training sessions, and the non-dominant (non-trained) arms were investigated for the cross-education effect. Maximal voluntary contraction torque of isometric (MVC-ISO), concentric (MVC-CON), and eccentric contractions (MVC-ECC), and thickness (MT) of biceps brachii and brachialis of the trained and non-trained arms were assessed at baseline and 4–8 days after the last training session. The control group did not show significant changes in any variables. Significant (P < 0.05) increases in MVC-ISO torque (16.2 ± 12.6%), MVC-CON torque (21.1 ± 24.4%), and MVC-ECC torque (19.6 ± 17.5%) of the trained arm were observed for the EXT group only. The magnitude of the increase in MT of the trained arm was greater (P < 0.05) for EXT (8.9 ± 3.9%) than FLE (3.4 ± 2.7%). The cross-education effect was evident for MVC-ISO (15.9 ± 14.8%) and MVC-CON (16.7 ± 20.0%) torque of the EXT group only. These results suggest that resistance training at the extended elbow joint induces greater muscle adaptations and cross-education effects than that at flexed elbow joint.
