Abstract

. This study investigates the development of tourism in Lubuk Resam Village, located in the North Seluma Sub-District of Seluma Regency. The research applies a qualitative descriptive method to analyze the village's tourism potential using the framework proposed by Buhalis (2000), which includes attractions, accessibility, amenities, and ancillary services. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and documentation, involving three key informants and two supporting informants from local stakeholders. The findings reveal that Lubuk Resam possesses a variety of natural attractions—such as hot springs, waterfalls, and unique cave formations—that serve as primary tourist magnets. However, access remains a significant challenge due to inadequate road infrastructure, particularly for four-wheeled vehicles. Amenities and supporting facilities, including accommodation, restrooms, and parking areas, are still underdeveloped due to limited village funding. The study suggests that maximizing tourism development in Lubuk Resam requires stronger involvement from external stakeholders, such as regional government bodies and private investors. Their participation is vital for improving infrastructure, enhancing visitor experience, and ensuring sustainability. Furthermore, community engagement must be encouraged to preserve cultural identity while promoting tourism. The study concludes that with strategic planning and cross-sector collaboration, Lubuk Resam has the potential to emerge as a leading tourism village in Bengkulu Province.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the strategic management of raw water sources at the Regional Drinking Water Company (PDAM) Tirta Hidayah in Bengkulu City using a SWOT analysis approach. The availability of clean water is a critical component for public health and sustainable development. However, water quality degradation due to pollution and climate change poses significant challenges for public utilities like PDAM. Employing a qualitative descriptive method, the research gathers data through direct observation, in-depth interviews with key stakeholders, and documentation analysis. The findings indicate that PDAM Tirta Hidayah possesses notable strengths, such as the application of modern water treatment technologies, adherence to health regulations including the Ministry of Health Regulation No. 2 of 2023, and a professional operations team. Nevertheless, several weaknesses persist, including limited treatment capacity, inconsistent water quality, high operational costs, and pollution of the Bentiring River, which is the primary water source. Opportunities for improvement lie in adopting advanced water processing technologies, fostering public-private partnerships, and increasing community awareness regarding water conservation. However, external threats such as climate variability and inadequate infrastructure remain pressing issues. Based on the SWOT analysis, a comprehensive strategic plan is recommended to enhance the effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability of raw water management in Bengkulu. These strategies should address both internal shortcomings and external risks while leveraging existing organizational strengths and market opportunities. This study contributes to the broader discourse on public sector water governance and offers actionable insights for policymakers and utility managers.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the electronic office system on employees’ work effectiveness at the Regional Office of the National Land Agency of Bengkulu Province. This research applied a quantitative method with a survey approach. A total of 53 respondents were selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data analysis involved the product moment correlation test, simple linear regression, validity and reliability tests, t-test, and coefficient of determination. The findings reveal that the electronic office system significantly influences employees’ work effectiveness. The correlation coefficient of 0.409 indicates a moderate relationship between the variables. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 16.8% shows that the electronic office variable contributes to 16.8% of the variance in work effectiveness. Furthermore, the t-value (3.204) exceeds the t-table value (2.006), meaning that the hypothesis is accepted. Thus, the use of the electronic office system has a positive and significant effect on improving employees’ work effectiveness at the Regional Office of BPN Bengkulu Province.
