Abstract

This thesis project aims to determine the most suitable model for spa development within a hospitality context. It also discusses the implementation process required to establish the spa effectively according to the chosen model. Furthermore, the thesis project analyses whether the direct establishment and management of the spa by Sadara Resort can contribute to increasing the hotel's overall revenue, thereby supporting its long-term financial sustainability and service quality improvement. This thesis project adopts the Planning, Organizing, Actuating, and Controlling (POAC) framework. It uses qualitative data, including primary data from interviews with Sadara Resort’s management and secondary data from guest reviews on facilities and services. The data analysis technique is qualitative analysis, consisting of data collection, data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The establishment of a spa at Sadara Resort aligns with the implementation of the POAC (Planning, Organizing, Actuating, and Controlling) model. Through careful planning and independent management, the spa business has effectively increased revenue and made a significant contribution to the hotel’s overall income. This demonstrates the financial advantages of integrating wellness services into the resort’s core operations. Independently managing a business, rather than outsourcing it to third parties, can lead to higher revenue generation by retaining full control over operations and profits. This approach requires the ability to identify current market trends, opportunities, and customer needs. Understanding these elements is essential for detecting business gaps. Once identified, a comprehensive analysis must assess their financial and operational impact. If results are favorable, business enhancement or development plans should be prepared accordingly.

Abstract

Background. Electronic waste (e-waste) has become one of the fastest-growing waste streams in Indonesia as rapid digitalization, increased consumer demand for electronic devices, and limited recycling infrastructure create significant environmental and public health challenges. Current disposal patterns—dominated by informal collection, open burning, and landfilling—pose risks related to soil contamination, toxic emissions, and exposure to hazardous substances such as lead, cadmium, and mercury. Purpose. This study aims to review national policies, regulatory frameworks, and best practices related to e-waste management in Indonesia through the conceptual lens of the circular economy. Method. The research employs a qualitative literature review design, synthesizing scholarly articles, government documents, international reports, and case-based analyses of e-waste management initiatives. Comparative analysis is used to identify gaps between policy intentions and implementation outcomes while highlighting successful practices at both national and regional levels. Results. Results show that CE-based initiatives—such as formal recycling facilities, producer take-back programs, and repair–reuse ecosystems—have begun to emerge but face barriers related to limited institutional capacity, low public awareness, and dominance of the informal sector. Conclusion. The study concludes that strengthening national coordination, scaling up CE-driven business models, and integrating community participation are essential for Indonesia to achieve sustainable e-waste management aligned with circular economy principles.

Abstract

Background. The erosion of public trust in government institutions has become a critical global concern, driven largely by persistent issues of corruption, inefficiency, and opaque administrative processes. Amid this trust deficit, blockchain technology—especially Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT)—has emerged as a promising tool to rebuild transparency, accountability, and citizen engagement in the public sector. Purpose. This study aims to examine how blockchain can be strategically implemented to restore social trust by enhancing transparency in public sector transactions. Method. This study uses a qualitative method supported by several case studies, this study analyzes the initiative of real world blockchain adoption in countries such as Estonia, the United Arab Emirates, and Indonesia. Data was collected through analysis of policy documents, expert interviews, and comparative evaluation of the DLT -based public administration framework. Results. The findings indicate that blockchain’s immutable and decentralized architecture significantly mitigates information asymmetry, reduces opportunities for fraud, and enables real-time auditing of government activities. Moreover, smart contract integration allows for automatic enforcement of public service agreements, further reinforcing institutional integrity. However, the study also highlights critical challenges such as legal uncertainties, technological literacy gaps, and resistance to institutional change that may hinder effective implementation. Conclusion. In conclusion, while blockchain is not a panacea for all governance issues, it presents a powerful foundation for restoring social trust when embedded within a broader ecosystem of legal reform, digital literacy, and civic participation. This research contributes to the growing discourse on digital governance by offering a conceptual and empirical basis for blockchain-enabled transparency in the public sector.

Abstract

Background. In Indonesia, micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), which represent a significant portion of the economy, often face challenges in accessing traditional financial services due to limited access to banking and credit facilities. Peer-to-peer (P2P) lending platforms have emerged as a viable alternative to address the financing gap for unbanked MSMEs. Purpose. This study investigates the role of P2P lending platforms in promoting financial inclusion among unbanked MSMEs in Indonesia, focusing on their potential to provide easier access to capital and foster economic growth. Method. The research adopts a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with MSME owners and financial experts. A total of 200 MSMEs across various sectors were surveyed, and 15 in-depth interviews were conducted to explore the experiences of MSME owners using P2P lending services. Data analysis includes descriptive statistics and thematic analysis to understand the impact of P2P lending on business performance, financial inclusion, and economic empowerment. Results. The findings reveal that P2P lending platforms have significantly improved access to capital for unbanked MSMEs, enabling them to expand their operations and enhance their financial stability. However, challenges such as high-interest rates, limited awareness, and lack of financial literacy remain. Conclusion. The study concludes that P2P lending platforms play a crucial role in enhancing financial inclusion for MSMEs in Indonesia. To maximize their impact, there is a need for more targeted financial literacy programs and policy support to improve the accessibility and sustainability of these platforms for unbanked MSMEs.
