Withdrawal of Manuscript

This journal is free of charge, and authors are not permitted to withdraw manuscripts that have already been submitted. Withdrawing a manuscript wastes valuable resources, including the time and effort of the editors and reviewers who have worked hard to process the manuscript, as well as the administrative work undertaken by the publisher.

If the author still insists on withdrawing a manuscript during the peer review process, a withdrawal penalty of IDR 250,000 per manuscript will be charged.
If the manuscript is withdrawn after it has been accepted for publication, the author must pay a full withdrawal penalty of IDR 500,000 per manuscript.

Withdrawal will only be processed after the author has fully paid the required penalty. It is considered unethical to withdraw a submitted manuscript due to acceptance by another journal.

If the author refuses to pay the penalty, the author and their affiliated institution will be blacklisted from submitting to this journal for 5 years.
