Abstract

This research aims to examine the strategies used by female politicians in Bali to balance their political careers with their social and cultural roles in the family and society. In addition, this study will also analyze the factors that influence the development of Balinese women's political careers. The method used is descriptive qualitative research with data collection through interviews and documentary studies. Interview data was collected from Balinese women politicians who are running for legislative members (Caleg) in the 2024 legislative elections (Pileg) from the Indonesian Solidarity Party (PSI), as well as from academics experienced in gender studies. The results showed that time management strategies and effective communication approaches are solutions for Balinese women in their multi-tasking roles. In addition, Balinese women are expected to innovate creatively by using technology to facilitate the management of household and work affairs in line with the concept of work-family balance. There are three important factors that influence Balinese women's political careers: first, cultural factors related to the still dominant patriarchal culture; second, structural factors reflecting the lack of allocation of strategic positions for women; and third, institutional factors related to the weakness of existing regulations to protect women's interests in the political arena.

Abstract

The institutional transformation from Baperlitbang to the Regional Research and Innovation Agency (BRIDA) in Klungkung Regency aims to accelerate the regional innovation ecosystem to enhance national competitiveness through the Innovative Government Award (IGA). Despite dominating at the regional level in Bali, Klungkung faces challenges in breaking into the national top ten. This study aims to analyze BRIDA's management strategy in optimizing regional innovation and identify obstacles in accommodating innovation potential from the apparatus competence development path. Using a descriptive qualitative method, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation at the Innovation E-Clinic, and documentation studies. The results show that the reward strategy through "Nayaka Praja Pratibha" and technical assistance through "Innovation E-Clinic" have successfully increased the quantity of innovations. However, a "latent innovation" phenomenon was found in the form of hundreds of change projects and CPNS basic training results that have not been integrated into national reporting due to a disconnection between BRIDA and BKPSDM. This study recommends the need to integrate talent management with the regional innovation information system through cross-sectoral collaboration to minimize the leakage of regional innovation asset potential.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Value Added Tax (VAT) rate increases in Indonesia by analyzing VAT revenue buoyancy and examining the key factors that influence its performance. Employing a quantitative research approach, the study utilizes secondary time-series data from 2019 to 2024, sourced from the Directorate General of Taxes, Statistics Indonesia, and the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia. A regression-based analysis is conducted to measure the responsiveness of VAT revenue to economic growth, taxpayer compliance, inflation, and tax administrative policies. Tax buoyancy serves as the primary indicator for evaluating the effectiveness of the 2022 VAT rate increase policy. The findings demonstrate that the VAT rate increase has proven effective in the short to medium term, with buoyancy values consistently exceeding one since policy implementation, indicating that VAT revenue growth has outpaced economic growth. Nevertheless, the sustainability of this effectiveness depends not only on rate adjustments but also on structural factors, including taxpayer compliance, administrative reforms, and the broadening of the VAT base. The planned selective increase of the VAT rate to 12 percent in 2025 reflects the government’s cautious approach to balancing revenue generation with fairness considerations, although its impact on VAT buoyancy is expected to be moderate. Empirical results further highlight the critical role of taxpayer compliance in ensuring the success of VAT policy. The introduction of the Coretax system by the Directorate General of Taxes is identified as a strategic step to strengthen administration and enhance compliance. Despite the regression analysis showing multicollinearity among some variables, the overall direction of the relationships remains consistent. The study concludes that VAT revenue performance is shaped by the interplay of tax rates, compliance levels, and structural reforms, and it recommends future research with expanded datasets and refined analytical techniques to provide deeper insights into the long-term effectiveness of VAT policies.
