Abstract

Clean water management is a strategic issue in regional development, including in Pringsewu Regency. This research aims to analyze the clean water management system, identify the main challenges, and formulate strategies for improving clean water services in the region. The research approach uses qualitative methods with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, field observations and document studies. Data were analyzed using an interactive model with a focus on policy, institutional and community participation aspects. The research results show that clean water management in Pringsewu Regency still faces various obstacles, such as limited infrastructure, low community access to clean water, and lack of optimal coordination between stakeholders. From an institutional perspective, coordination between regional governments, Regional Owned Enterprises (BUMD), and the community needs to be improved to create a sustainable system. The proposed strategy includes strengthening regulations and clean water management policies, increasing infrastructure capacity through sustainable investment, and empowering communities in managing water resources. Technology-based approaches are also recommended to improve the efficiency of distribution systems and water quality monitoring. It is hoped that this research can become a reference in policy making to ensure equal, sustainable and quality access to clean water in Pringsewu Regency.

Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of Governor of Lampung's Instruction No. 2 of 2025, which sets a floor purchasing price for cassava at IDR 1,350 per kilogram, with a maximum deduction (rafaksi) of 30% and without consideration of starch content. Although the policy aimed to protect farmers from plummeting prices, it triggered a complex chain reaction. Employing a case study approach and analyzing secondary data from news sources and relevant literature, this study finds that the policy directly led to the temporary shutdown of most tapioca factories in Lampung. While farmers initially welcomed the price benchmark, factory closures resulted in difficulties in absorbing harvested cassava and posed the risk of significant losses for farmers. The analysis revealed that the policy's disregard for quality factors, particularly starch content, and failure to consider the economic viability of the processing industry were key drivers of resistance from factory owners. Subsequent interventions by regional and national governments, including the proposal of a Limited Import Ban (Lartas) on tapioca and the involvement of the Food Task Force, along with negotiations involving business associations, eventually pressured many factories to resume operations and comply with new pricing. Nonetheless, this episode highlights the vulnerability of farmers, the complexity of price interventions in agricultural commodity markets, and the urgent need for a holistic policy approach. This study recommends a reformulation of floor price policies that incorporate quality-based incentives, promote equitable partnership models, strengthen farmers’ capacity, ensure better coordination between regional and central governments, and include well-calibrated import regulations.

Abstract

This study explores the dynamic and multifaceted roles of environmental non-governmental organizations (NGOs)—WALHI, Watala, and Mitra Bentala—in shaping regional environmental policy in Lampung Province, Indonesia. It aims to analyze how these NGOs navigate between collaboration and opposition in their interactions with the government, while addressing environmental challenges. Using a descriptive qualitative method, data were collected through interviews with NGO representatives, government officials, and environmental policy observers using a snowball sampling technique, complemented by relevant secondary data. The findings reveal that the three NGOs actively engage in environmental advocacy through campaigns, research, and grassroots mobilization. Their roles extend from being policy partners to critical watchdogs, depending on the alignment between government actions and environmental goals. Despite their significant influence, these NGOs face structural challenges, including limited resources and political resistance. The study underscores the constructive nature of the tension between NGOs and the government, where conflict serves as a form of policy oversight. Furthermore, NGO-facilitated community participation enhances the responsiveness of environmental policy to local needs. While the study is limited in scope, it contributes to the broader discourse on civil society's role in policy-making and suggests pathways to strengthen NGO-government collaboration for more inclusive and sustainable environmental governance at the regional level.
