Abstract

This article examines the financial management of the government of Aceh, which is supported by special autonomy funds. It is a war compensation and recovery from the tsunami disaster following the signing of a peace accord between the Free Aceh Movement (GAM) and the Government of Indonesia for development to increase the Acehnese people's well-being, disbursed by the central government. But the governance of the special autonomy fund it runs has not been able to help Aceh get out of poverty according to national standards. The article employed a descriptive qualitative approach, then purposive sampling used by the authors as the technique to identify people to interview about Aceh's poverty and special autonomy fund issues. Open publications, whether they be official government documents such as rules or decisions, newspapers or magazines, or scientific references such as books or journals were secondary data used by authors. The findings revealed that the management of the special autonomy fund lacks a mature grand design, such that the management rules change annually and are also influenced by the tug-of-war between the Aceh government and the region/city governments. Then, the principle of accountability was not properly implemented, so these two findings were unable to affect the substance of the poverty sector in Aceh, causing Aceh's poverty to consistently fall below the national average.Artikel ini mengkaji masalah pengelolaan keuangan pemerintah Aceh yang ditopang oleh dana otonomi khusus. Dana Otonomi Khusus ini merupakan untuk pemulihan dari bencana tsunami dan kompensasi perang setelah penandatanganan kesepakatan damai antara Gerakan Aceh Merdeka (GAM) dan Pemerintah Indonesia yang bertujuan untuk pembangunan peningkatan kesejahteraan rakyat Aceh, yang dikucurkan oleh pemerintah pusat. Namun tata kelola dana otsus yang dijalankannya belum mampu membantu Aceh keluar dari zona kemiskinan sesuai standar nasional. Artikel ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif, kemudian purposive sampling digunakan oleh penulis sebagai teknik untuk mengidentifikasi orang-orang yang akan diwawancarai tentang masalah kemiskinan dan dana otonomi khusus Aceh. Publikasi terbuka, baik berupa dokumen resmi pemerintah seperti peraturan atau keputusan, surat kabar atau majalah, atau referensi ilmiah seperti buku atau jurnal merupakan data sekunder yang digunakan oleh penulis. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa pengelolaan dana otsus tidak memiliki grand design yang matang, sehingga aturan pengelolaannya berubah setiap tahun dan juga dipengaruhi oleh tarik ulur antara pemerintah Aceh dengan pemerintah daerah/kota. Kemudian, prinsip akuntabilitas tidak diterapkan dengan baik, sehingga tidak mampu mempengaruhi permasalahan  substantif sektor kemiskinan di Aceh dan menyebabkan kemiskinan Aceh secara konsisten berada di bawah rata-rata nasional.

Abstract

West Aceh Regency is a highly strategic agro-based region located in the western part of Aceh Province. This regency has abundant natural resources, particularly rice fields in the subdistricts of Kaway XVI, Woyla, Wayla Barat, Panteun Reu, Arongan, and Samatiga, which are the most extensive compared to other regions. The objective of this research is to realize the implementation of government policies and the Keujruen Blang customary institution in accordance with Qanun No. 10 of 2008 concerning the Aceh Customary Institution in order to achieve the SDGs Goal-I8 development targets. The organizational pattern within the traditional farmer institution is a coordination system in the management of rice fields from the planning stage, organization, evaluation, and monitoring, as well as the improvement of the socio-economic development of farmer groups in West Aceh Regency.The potential results of this research can be used as a reference or input and recommendation for the West Aceh Regency government in implementing a policy system for developing local wisdom resources in organizing adaptive and dynamic indigenous farmer institutions in a sustainable manner in West Aceh Regency. Based on the research results, there are four government resource strategies in planning agriculture based on local wisdom in the socio-cultural elements of agriculture. The legality of the Keujreun blang customary institution in agricultural governance can be empowered through the development of science and technology-based agriculture as well as increased involvement of customary institutions in decision-making for dynamic and adaptive strategic agricultural plans in village development.

Abstract

Digital healthcare services provided by Indonesia's Social Security Administration Agency or called BPJS have become central to enhancing access and the quality of healthcare nationwide. This study evaluates the digital services at the BPJS office in West Aceh, specifically in implementing the National Health Insurance (JKN) program in Meulaboh. Using public service dimensions such as reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy, and tangibility as a framework, the research aims to assess how effectively these services meet public needs. A qualitative case study approach was employed, involving interviews, observations, and document analysis to gather data. Informants were chosen through purposive sampling, and the data were analyzed using a public service model. The study reveals that while BPJS has largely succeeded in fulfilling its obligations under the JKN program in Meulaboh, the digital services offered via the Mobile JKN app still need to meet public expectations fully. Concerns remain about the app's accessibility and usability, highlighting the need for further improvements. The study concludes with recommendations for enhancing digital service delivery to meet user needs and expectations
