Abstract

Regional disparities in service infrastructure persist across Indonesia despite spatial planning efforts. This study addresses the critical gap between normative planning (RTRW 2012) and empirical service center hierarchy in Gorontalo Regency. Using an integrated approach combining Guttman scalogram analysis and Marshall centrality index—a methodological innovation in regional analysis—we identified five hierarchical levels of service centers based on facility distribution across 19 sub-districts. The key finding reveals a serious asynchronization between planned hierarchy (RTRW) and empirical reality: while Tibawa is designated as the regional activity center (PKW), scalogram analysis demonstrates that Limboto and Telaga represent the functionally dominant centers with significantly higher service capacity and facility diversity. Conversely, several peripheral zones designated as PPL (environmental service centers) show higher potential than planned estimates. These findings demonstrate that spatial planning in Gorontalo Regency has not effectively aligned with actual economic and infrastructure development patterns. We recommend RTRW revision based on empirical evidence to optimize infrastructure investment allocation and support more equitable regional development. This research contributes theoretically by demonstrating the applicability of integrated spatial analysis methods to Indonesian regional contexts and provides practical policy guidance for responsive spatial planning in decentralized governance systems.

Abstract

This study examines how the implementation of Good Corporate Governance (GCG) principles functions as a strategic instrument for improving the financial performance of a Regional-Owned Enterprise (BUMD), particularly in increasing Regional Original Income (PAD). This study is urgent as it addresses governance challenges faced by traditional BUMDs transitioning into modern, partner-managed tourism enterprises. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach, utilizing in-depth interviews with key management personnel and stakeholders, complemented by document analysis of regulatory frameworks, financial reports, technical proposals, and official publications related to the revitalization process. The data were analyzed to assess how each GCG principletransparency, accountability, responsibility, independence, and fairnesswas operationalized in the company’s strategic decisions and management practices. The findings reveal that transparency in decision-making and partnership arrangements increased public trust, accountability enhanced operational efficiency, and responsibility strengthened long-term business sustainability. Furthermore, independence allowed management to make objective and professional business decisions without undue political or external intervention, fostering healthier relationships among stakeholders.
