Therefore, BPJPH as the Halal Product Assurance Organizing Agency is mandated by law to provide convenience for MSE actors, namely by facilitating free halal certification (Sehati) through a self-declared mechanism. The purposes of this research are (1) to find out how far self-declaring halal certification services have been absorbed by UMK actors, especially in Lampung Province, (2) to analyze BPJPH performance regarding self-declaring in accordance with the target given, namely in October 2024 UMK products are already certified legal.

The approach used in this study is an approach through a normative approach through sample testing and MSME data as the main data which is then processed qualitatively based on existing data.

Abstract

This study delves into how Exchange Rates and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) have shaped Indonesian exports over the past 17 years, from 2006 to 2022. On the whole, Indonesian exports have generally shown a positive trajectory during this period, although there have been occasional drops in specific years. The main countries that receive Indonesian exports are China, the United States, Japan, India, and Malaysia, and the primary export goods include coffee, animal and vegetable fats and oils, Crude Palm Oil (CPO), and coal. When we look at long-term model analyses, it becomes evident that exchange rates play a significant role in negatively affecting Indonesian exports. This means that, over an extended period, an increase in the value of the Indonesian currency can lead to a reduction in export volumes. Furthermore, GDP also exerts a notable negative influence on Indonesian exports, suggesting that the overall economic growth of the country can impact export levels. In the context of short-term model estimations, it is apparent that fluctuations in currency exchange rates have a substantial negative impact on Indonesian exports in the immediate term, assuming all other factors remain constant. The results of these estimations also indicate that GDP has a considerable negative effect on Indonesian export performance in the short run.

This study's methodology is exploratory in nature, using a focuss group discussin approach as part of qualitative descriptive methods that includes a reference of the relevant literature related to branding. A focus group discussion is held in preparation for the two focus groups that will be held.

This study's sample consists of students from the Bandung area, the majority of whom represent the target demographic., that the majority of whom represent the brand's target market segment. When the logo includes the brand text, the brand's awareness is best represented. The text's presentation of descriptive information about the brands was chosen by the consumer. As an example, the multi-national brand logo was used in this study. More trials with different brands are needed to generalize and corroborate the findings. Furthermore, the limitation of this study constraints, its only based on two small sample groups represented as potential consumer. The findings of this article imply that logos containing text influence consumers more perceptions of a brand's information and should thus be taken into account when altering a company's logo. Although there is a trend toward dressing-down logos in response to internationalization and digitization industry, it is beneficial to use brand logos that combine logo and emblem, rather than only pictorial logo marks, to communicate desired attributes of their brand personality.
