ARTICLE STRUCTURE
Abstract
A concise and factual 150-200 words abstract is required. The abstract should state briefly the purpose of the research, the principal results, the method and major conclusions. An abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. For this reason, references should be avoided. Non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, but if essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract itself. The Abstract is written in Indonesian and English.

Keywords
Authors should provide 3 to 5 keywords, separated by comma (,). These should be placed beneath the abstract. The keywords should be written in Indonesian and English.

An introduction to the field, the current situation, or prevailing practice

Research method section shows how author arrived at the result
Results and Discussion
Results should be clear and concise. Research discussion should explore the significance of the results of the work, not repeat them. A combined Results and Discussion section is often appropriate.
