Abstract

This study analyzes the dialectic between political and administrative rationality in the deliberative development planning process in Pentadio Timur Village, Gorontalo Regency. The village planning process is often in tension between political interests (the aspirations of residents and local elites) and administrative rationality (rules, data, and technocratic procedures). Using a qualitative approach and case study method, this study explores the dynamics of the Village Development Planning Meeting (Musrenbangdes) as a deliberation space between political and administrative actors. The results show that political rationality plays a crucial role in maintaining the social legitimacy of village government, while administrative rationality ensures program efficiency, accountability, and sustainability. When both are able to interact collaboratively, the deliberative process produces planning that is inclusive and adaptive to community needs. However, the imbalance between these two rationalities remains a challenge, primarily due to the limited technical capacity of the apparatus and the influence of electoral interests.

Abstract

This study examines the factors influencing the effectiveness of disaster mitigation policies in Gorontalo and explores how revitalizing development administration can enhance these efforts. The research is grounded in the context of weak inter-agency coordination and limited community participation, which pose significant challenges to policy implementation. Data were collected through literature review, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions (FGD), and document analysis. The findings reveal that effective inter-agency coordination, human resource capacity, and community engagement are critical to successful disaster risk mitigation. Furthermore, integrating sustainable development principles and empowering local communities are essential to strengthening resilience. The study concludes that improving governance structures, fostering institutional synergy, and promoting active community involvement are necessary steps to enhance the effectiveness of disaster mitigation policies in Gorontalo and other disaster-prone regions.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the e-Planning system in the Regional Development Planning Agency ancy (Bappeda) of Gorontalo Regency using the Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) approach. The method used is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of the e-Planning system has not been running optimally and still faces various obstacles in three main aspects. From the technological aspect, unstable internet network interference is a dominant obstacle that causes delays and failures in system access. From the organizational aspect, the available SOPs are still general and have not been adapted to the technical needs of each sector, resulting in inconsistencies in task implementation Meanwhile, from the environmental side, the low understanding and technical skills of human resources. as well as unequal training, are challenges in optimizing system use. This study recommends improving network infrastructure, re-drafting more contextual SOPs and ongoing technical training to increase the effectiveness of e-Planning implementation in the Bappeda of Gorontalo Regency.

Abstract

Land asset management in Gorontalo Regency faces various problems, including weak inventories, late reporting by Regional Apparatus Organizations (OPD), and the persistence of uncertified assets and overlapping ownership documents. These conditions indicate that land asset management is not yet optimal. This study aims to describe and analyze land asset management in the Gorontalo Regency Government, focusing on planning, implementation, and supervision. The method used was a qualitative approach with a descriptive approach. Data were obtained through observation, in-depth interviews with the Regional Personnel Agency (BKAD) and Commission II of the Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD), and documentation. Analysis was conducted interactively through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that planning is not optimal due to weak coordination and data integration. Implementation is still hampered by recording, assessment, and certification due to limited human resources. Supervision has been carried out through document review, but is hampered by late reporting and a lack of transparency. The conclusions of this study confirm that land asset management in Gorontalo Regency is not yet effective and efficient, necessitating strengthening coordination, inventory systems, human resource quality, and transparent supervision.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the orchestration capacity of local government agencies in Gorontalo Regency in integrating community aspirations into development planning. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method with data obtained through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, document reviews, and focus group discussions involving officials, community representatives, and local stakeholders. The analysis focused on three main dimensions, namely technical, analytical, and communication capacity. The findings indicate that capacity fragmentation remains the main obstacle, as agencies with strong technical competence often show weaknesses in analytical ability, while those excelling in public communication tend to be weak in technical aspects. On average, only eighteen to twenty percent of community aspirations are accommodated in the regional budget, reflecting the dominance of sectoral programs, limited fiscal space, and weak inter-agency coordination. These challenges are further reinforced by regulatory frameworks that remain top-down, limiting regional flexibility to adapt policies to local needs. Nevertheless, the study identifies strategic opportunities to strengthen orchestration through the utilization of information technology to enhance transparency, accelerate data flows, improve policy integration, and expand public participation. Additional strategies include developing human resource capacity, promoting evidence-based planning, establishing IT-based coordination forums, and introducing regulations that are more adaptive to local contexts. The study concludes that strengthening orchestration should not be seen merely as an administrative process but as a transformative strategy to realize inclusive, responsive, and sustainable regional development governance.
