Considering our publication, we had several mistakes about the different name of this journal template with the LIPI issued journal’s name. Firstly, in 2009 until 2015, we used KES MAS only for the name of this journal. Then, in 2016 we used Kes Mas: Jurnal Kesehatan Masyarakat that still has been a little distinguish with LIPI issued journal’s name. We evaluate our management including rechecking the true name journal that LIPI issued with. Starting in 2017 we use Kes Mas: Jurnal Fakultas Kesehatan Masyarakat for this journal's template until now.
