Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to analyze how the use of the DigiDes digital village service application influences community satisfaction in Negeri Halong, Baguala District, Ambon City. Methodology: This study employed a quantitative approach using a structured questionnaire distributed to DigiDes users.

Main Findings: The results showed that the use of the DigiDes application has a positive and significant influence on community satisfaction, particularly in terms of service efficiency, accessibility, and accuracy. Increased use of DigiDes corresponds to higher satisfaction levels, indicating strong community acceptance of digital public services. These findings suggest improvements in village governance through more transparent and responsive services, strengthened state–citizen relations, and ongoing digital-based social transformation at the village level. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study provides new insights into how digital village service applications operate in small-scale community settings, specifically in Negeri Halong.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to analyze the effect of public service quality in the health sector on community satisfaction as service users at the Lateri Village Community Health Center, Baguala District, Ambon City. From a public administration perspective, healthcare services are positioned as an integral part of public service delivery, which constitutes the government’s responsibility in fulfilling citizens’ basic rights and in promoting responsive and accountable governance. Methodology: A quantitative explanatory design was employed using simple linear regression analysis. Data were collected from 80 service users through a structured questionnaire based on a five-point Likert scale. Service quality indicators were adapted from established healthcare quality frameworks and reinterpreted within a public service governance perspective. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS after validity, reliability, and classical assumption testing. Main Findings: The findings indicate that public healthcare service quality has a positive and significant effect on community satisfaction. Improvements in accessibility, efficiency, humane interaction, and service reliability contribute to more favorable citizen evaluations of public service performance. These results suggest that service quality functions not only as an operational standard but also as a governance mechanism that shapes public trust and institutional legitimacy at the local level. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study provides empirical contributions to the development of public administration by integrating health service quality dimensions into a public service analysis framework. It enriches the social science literature, particularly in the study of public service quality and community satisfaction in primary healthcare services. Furthermore, the study offers practical implications for improving the performance of public sector organizations, especially Community Health Centers (Puskesmas) as public service providers in eastern Indonesia.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to analyze the effect of service effectiveness on taxpayer satisfaction at the Regional Revenue Agency of Maluku Province, specifically in Motor Vehicle Tax payment services at One-Stop Administration Services Office Waihaong Ambon. The research positions taxpayer satisfaction not only as an administrative performance indicator but also as a reflection of governance quality, institutional legitimacy, and the relational dynamics between government and citizens within a decentralized public administration framework. Methodology: This study employed a quantitative survey approach involving taxpayers who directly accessed Motor Vehicle Tax payment services. Respondents were selected using an incidental sampling technique based on their direct service experience. Data were collected through structured Likert-scale questionnaires measuring service effectiveness (service speed, procedural accuracy, clarity of information, accessibility, and officer professionalism) and taxpayer satisfaction. Instrument validity and reliability tests were conducted prior to analysis. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression with SPSS software, including hypothesis testing (t-test) and coefficient of determination (R²). Main Findings: The findings indicate that service effectiveness has a positive and statistically significant effect on taxpayer satisfaction. The regression results demonstrate that improvements in service speed, procedural clarity, accessibility, and officer professionalism directly increase satisfaction levels. The coefficient of determination shows that service effectiveness explains a substantial proportion of variance in taxpayer satisfaction. These results confirm that effective public service delivery not only enhances citizen satisfaction but also strengthens public trust, perceptions of administrative fairness, and institutional legitimacy in regional tax administration. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study contributes new empirical evidence from an archipelagic regional context in eastern Indonesia by integrating a quantitative service effectiveness model with a social governance perspective. Unlike prior studies that primarily emphasize technical service quality dimensions, this research conceptualizes taxpayer satisfaction as an indicator of institutional trust and governance legitimacy. The study enriches public administration literature by demonstrating how frontline service performance influences broader governance outcomes within decentralized regional tax systems.
