“…Since the inception and implementation of MPRs in public universities and other public HEIs in Tanzania, little is known about whether or not the reforms resulted in the improved provision of public higher education. Suffices to note, although a plethora of studies exist on higher education policy and practice in Tanzania (Dachi, 2021;Komba, 2017;Makulilo, 2012;Mgaiwa 2018b;Mgaiwa & Ishengoma, 2023;Mgaiwa & Ponsian, 2016;Mkude, 2011;Sanga, 2012;Sarakikya, 2014;Watengere, 2016), literature focusing on the impact of MPRs in higher education is still somewhat limited, suggesting a paucity of empirical research and limited theoretical work undertaken in this problem area. Therefore, the current study sought to narrow this gap.…”

Background/purpose -The purpose of the study was to explore how the implementation of Market Policy Reforms (MPR) has contributed to public higher institutions (HEIs) achievement of the core mission of excellence in teaching, innovative research, and academic publications.Materials/methods -It employed a qualitative approach with a multiple case design. Data were collected from two public universities through interviews, focus group discussions, and documentary reviews. Primary data were thematically analyzed and presented as excerpts and narrations. Secondary data were presented in tabular format and illustrative figures.Results -The findings showed that expansion in student numbers was disproportionate to the resources available. Teaching and assessments were emphasized at the expense of other core functions. Research and publication outputs were dependent on donor funding and international collaborations. Universities have built partnerships with communities, albeit on a small scale. The financial position of universities has improved but revenue streams have not substituted government subventions as a core source of funding. Conclusion -The study concluded generally that MPRs have not significantly solved problems adversely affecting the quest by universities to achieve their core mission.

“…Financing for education is the most crucial to help ensure the running of all education programs at the national, provincial, and all district/city levels (Huda & Kardoyo, 2021;Rahmadoni, 2018). Financing systems that emphasize education priorities have a positive impact on social mobility and student trajectories and countries provide financial support in every aspect of education at both regional and local levels (Mgaiwa & Ishengoma, 2023;Ruff et al, 2023). Every program to be implemented requires and requires an institutional budget, namely financial costs because the financial and financing components in an educational institution are production components that determine the implementation of activities in the process of organizing educational institutions (Gunawan, 2020;Syarifuddin, 2023).…”

“…If the debtor defaults on the loan before the end of the loan period, the creditor has the right to use the collateral to repay the debt. (Mgaiwa & Ishengoma, 2023;Muslih & Supeno, 2022) Physical collateral, such as a car, is considered an absolute security for a product that is used as collateral for a debt. The creditor's position in this physical collateral is the privilege of repayment or the privilege (preferred creditor).…”

Judicial decisions must have legal implications for relevant parties. PMK No. 2/PUU-XIX/2021 remains debatable between creditors and debtors because it seemingly weakens the protection of creditors' rights. Creditors cannot immediately carry out enforcement procedures that cut off the creditor's business flow because the position of the subject of fiduciary obligations is in the debtor's control, making it possible for disputes between debtors and creditors. This normative legal research was conducted using a philosophical, juridical approach covering statutory policies, conceptual and case approaches. PMK No. 2/PUU-XIX/2021 does not regulate creditor legal provisions in enforcing fiduciary securities, making it difficult for creditors to execute them. The Constitutional Court should decide to guarantee justice for all parties and provide a decision with clear content and sentence structure, so multiple interpretations will not occur. The execution of fiduciary securities during the Covid-19 pandemic should not be immediately carried out because the creditor had to follow the predetermined procedures.
