Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of access to financing on community welfare, with the performance of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) serving as a mediating variable in Deli Serdang Regency. This study employs an explanatory research approach. The sample consists of 93 MSMEs in Deli Serdang Regency. A quantitative approach is applied using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Squares (PLS). Data were collected through the distribution of questionnaires to MSME operators as research respondents. The results indicate that access to financing has a positive and significant effect on MSME performance. Furthermore, MSME performance also has a positive and significant effect on community welfare. In addition, access to financing also has a direct positive and significant effect on community welfare. The results of the mediation test indicate that MSME performance mediates the relationship between access to financing and community welfare. These findings suggest that improved access to financing, accompanied by enhanced MSME performance, can make a significant contribution to increasing community welfare. Therefore, the government and financial institutions need to play an active role in expanding access to financing and improving MSME capacity in order to enhance business performance and community welfare in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

Abstract: This study investigates the strategic management of media relations by Public Relations (PR) practitioners in Badan Usaha Milik Daerah (BUMD) during operational crises, focusing specifically on the pivotal role of Forum Wartawan Tirtanadi (Forwadi) in shaping and sustaining public sentiment. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach grounded in Situational Crisis Communication Theory (SCCT), primary data were gathered through structured, in-depth interviews with PR executives, operational leaders, and media partners at PDAM Tirtanadi Medan. The study addresses the critical challenge of information fragmentation and public anxiety stemming from service disruptions. Findings demonstrate that PDAM Tirtanadi mitigates negative public sentiment through a multi-tiered media relations strategy: executing rapid field-data verification, establishing transparent digital communication hubs via specialized journalist forums, and leveraging local community networks alongside broadcast media. The integration of structured media partnerships with empirical, photo-documented field reporting significantly diminishes public skepticism and stabilizes organizational trust during critical service outages. The research underscores the imperative for continuous crisis communication training and real-time digital integration between field operations and PR departments in public service enterprises.
