However, accepted article or Article in Press cannot be withdrawing without scientific justification and it should be approved by Editor in Chief. Minor or major lack of the published data that causes article retraction can be discussed followed by diminishing the data from article.

Meanwhile, withdrawing the article in review process or submission regarding those reasons, author should pay by half of full penalty. In addition, retraction must be reported and recorded in Indonesian Academic Integrity/”Anjungan Integritas Akademik Indonesia” (ANJANI). Therefore, misconduct due to retraction/double submission, author can be punished by banned in ANJANI for further publication.
