Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the zoning system policy for elementary school student admissions in Mamasa Regency. Employing a qualitative approach with a descriptive-evaluative method, data were collected through in-depth interviews, direct observations, and document analysis. Informants included education office officials, school principals, teachers, parents, and community leaders. The data were analyzed using techniques of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the zoning policy contributes positively to equitable access to education, reduces dropout rates, and improves the efficiency of educational resource allocation. The system has helped achieve a more even distribution of students across schools, particularly in densely populated areas. However, the implementation still faces several challenges. These include unequal infrastructure development between regions, limited school capacities in certain zones, resistance from parents who prefer non-zoned schools, and instances of address falsification to bypass the policy. A situational analysis further indicates that while the zoning system enhances fairness in student placement, it also exposes disparities in school quality across different zones. The study suggests that to optimize the policy’s impact, improvements should focus on upgrading educational infrastructure, ensuring equitable teacher distribution, increasing public awareness, and conducting periodic policy evaluations. Overall, the zoning policy holds potential as a strategy to promote inclusive and fair education, but its effectiveness depends on addressing systemic inequalities and enhancing local implementation capacity in Mamasa Regency.

Abstract

This study aims to identify and describe the implementation of the subsidized housing assistance program in Gowa Regency, particularly in Palangga District. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The data were analyzed through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the program’s accountability has not been optimal, especially in two key indicators based on Polidano’s (1998) theory: role accountability and retrospective review. The imbalance of power among the Public Works Office (PUPR) as the controller, the Housing and Settlement Office (Perkimtan) as the licensing authority, and the developers as implementers, has led to weak oversight, regulatory non-compliance, and harm to the public. There are 22 housing developments recorded with issues related to permits and building specifications that do not meet standards. This indicates poor stakeholder accountability and declining public trust in the program. Although the government has made efforts to streamline licensing procedures, enhance supervision, impose sanctions on non-compliant developers, and apply stricter selection criteria for aid recipients, these measures remain insufficient. The study recommends strengthening oversight and legal enforcement, developing standardized technical guidelines, conducting more systematic program evaluations, and enhancing inter-agency collaboration and community involvement to promote transparency and accountability in the subsidized housing program.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the optimization of Bhabinkamtibmas performance in public service delivery in Lilirilau District, Soppeng Regency. The analysis is based on six key performance indicators for public officers: work results, work proficiency, job knowledge, initiative, attitude, and discipline. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis includes data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that Bhabinkamtibmas performance remains suboptimal. A gap exists between the officers' perceptions and community expectations across almost all indicators. Although administrative reporting and forum participation are being conducted, the presence of officers in the field and their impact on enhancing community security remain limited. Identified obstacles include ineffective time management, inconsistent responsiveness, low technology utilization, weak initiative and empathy, and a lack of professionally driven discipline. Performance optimization requires a systemic approach grounded in participatory, collaborative, and public-oriented principles. Recommendations include need-based local training, strengthened inter-agency coordination, utilization of information technology, development of professional attitudes, and integration of local wisdom values in service delivery. These strategies are expected to enhance the role of Bhabinkamtibmas as responsive, human-centered, and trustworthy public service agents.

Abstract

This study evaluates the implementation of the Complete Systematic Land Registration Program (PTSL) in Mamasa Regency through six dimensions of policy performance: effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, equity, responsiveness, and accuracy. Using a qualitative evaluative approach supported by document analysis and field observations, the findings reveal that the program is effective, achieving 98% of the land measurement target, full completion of land parcel mapping (PBT), and issuance of 17,902 land certificates. Efficiency is reflected in optimal time management and sufficient human resources, despite reliance on temporary staff (PPNPN). However, adequacy remains a challenge due to low registration rates and unresolved issues of overlapping maps and ownership disputes. The program demonstrates equity by reaching underserved groups, including farmers and remote communities, through accessible services and direct village outreach. Responsiveness is evident in the active engagement of the Land Office through counseling and community dialogues, which were met with high public enthusiasm. The accuracy dimension is fulfilled through compliance with legal and technical guidelines and responsiveness to community needs for land tenure security. Supporting factors include strong government backing, adequate human resources, and inter-agency collaboration. In contrast, inhibiting factors such as budget constraints, limited infrastructure, adverse weather, lack of land documentation, and unverified ownership in certain areas continue to hinder optimal implementation. These findings highlight the need for structural improvements in land administration policy, particularly in data verification and institutional coordination, to ensure sustainable land governance.

Abstract

In addition to analyzing the supporting and impeding elements, the purpose of this study is to determine how successfully Village Fund utilization improves community welfare in Lalabata Village, Barru Regency. The study used a case study methodology in conjunction with a qualitative approach. Observation, interviews, and documentation were used to gather data, which were then analyzed using the steps of data condensation, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results show that Lalabata Village's usage of village funds is thought to be fairly successful. This effectiveness is reflected in the implementation of priority programs, including the construction of farm roads, drainage systems, bridges, wells, market and tourism development, stunting prevention, and social assistance. These programs were designed and implemented participatively through village deliberations, ensuring that community needs were well accommodated. The village government also applied principles of transparency and accountability. Reporting was carried out through public billboards and village forums, while involving the community in planning, implementation, and monitoring processes. Capacity building for village officials and the provision of supporting facilities further strengthened program sustainability. However, several obstacles remain, including delays in fund disbursement, inadequate infrastructure, extreme weather conditions, and unresolved land grant processes. These challenges affected the smooth execution of some development activities. On the other hand, the efficient administration of village funds was made possible by auxiliary elements such as government policy, information system use, and village official training. Although technical and administrative improvements are still required, Lalabata Village's Village Funds management is generally seen as being fairly effective in enhancing community welfare.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze strategies for improving restorative justice services in Makassar City, focusing on the implementation of Prosecutor Regulation Number 15 of 2020. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the research adopts Edward III’s policy implementation theory and De Vreye’s service improvement strategy model. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the implementation of restorative justice faces several obstacles, including ineffective communication, limited human resources, lack of empathetic disposition among officials, and inadequate bureaucratic support. Service strategies have not been fully effective due to low public awareness and the suboptimal application of empowerment and expectation fulfillment indicators. Strengthening regulations, enhancing coordination, and building the capacity of justice officials are essential to ensure a fair, humanistic, and sustainable restorative justice service.

Abstract

The rapid development of technology has an impact on changes in human behavior in carrying out all activities. Activities that were originally carried out manually have transitioned into electronic, digital, and virtual forms. Along with the times, changes will always lead to something new, or commonly called innovation. The present study constitutes a qualitative study that aims to describe the innovation of the Stunting Awareness Group in efforts to reduce stunting rates in Mallusetasi District, Barru Regency. Data collection in this study was conducted through observation, interviews, and documentation. The informants involved were the Head of the Social Services Department, the Head of the Health Service, the Family Hope Program (PKH) Facilitator, the Stunting Awareness Group (Mpok Darti), and mothers who have toddlers. The results showed that the advantage of this innovation is the one-day, one-egg program; several agencies in Barru Regency that are competent according to their respective competencies collaborate to reduce the stunting rate in Barru Regency. Compatibility in the Stunting Awareness Group innovation to reduce stunting rates in Barru Regency is in accordance with the fulfillment of children's nutritional needs, namely eggs that contain protein. Complexity in the innovation of the Stunting Awareness Group to reduce stunting in Barru District is the lack of awareness and attention of parents about child nutrition, lack of environmental cleanliness and housing that can make the living environment less comfortable, poor availability of clean water and sanitation, and other things. The innovation of the Stunting Awareness Group to reduce stunting rates in Barru Regency is considered triable due to the collaboration with stakeholders involved in addressing stunting. The innovation of the Stunting Awareness Group in Barru District can be observed because there is monitoring from local governments such as the Head of Sub-District, Head of Village, Family Hope Program (PKH) assistants, and the Stunting Awareness Group (Mpok Darti). The intended evaluation, such as checking body weight, height, head circumference, and abdominal circumference in toddlers every month, and the results will be compared with before the implementation of this program innovation.
