Abstract

COVID-19 has been a critical event that we are currently facing. Amidst this uncertain time, the Indonesian government is unable to resist the commercialization practice that exists in medical service, particularly for the COVID-19 cases. In addition to that, intractable neoliberalism led to health inequalities and unequal distribution; uncentralized policy triggered uncontrollable prices. As a result, those practice is harm people in the economic and health sectors. In a simple manner, the COVID-19 outbreak exposed the appalling circumstance of Indonesian healthcare infrastructure resilience. This paper aims to find out the existing commercialization practice of the healthcare service, which should be public goods, and its implication for the people. The research is conducted by utilizing the qualitative research method that includes interviews and secondary data collecting. With the emphasis on criticizing a medical neoliberalism practice, the paper also provides a proposal for the related issue. Regarding the proposals, the paper offers three suggestions: 1) prioritize the preventive measure, 2) prioritize the health budget allocation, and 3) educate people to get used to the self-testing.

Abstract

This study explored the image transformation of Busan, South Korea, from an industrial hub to a globally recognized City of Film. By employing a paradiplomacy framework, the research examined how Busan utilized BIFF as both a cultural event and a strategic tool for international diplomacy, economic development, and city branding. This qualitative research focused on gathering data largely through a comprehensive evaluation of scientific literature, including books and papers relevant to the case study. The analyses delved into the evolution of the BIFF event and its significant role in rebranding Busan from a declining industrial city to the first "City of Film" in Asia, a title bestowed by UNESCO. The study highlighted how the festival had successfully stimulated local economic growth, bolstered creative industries, and facilitated cultural exchange. The result demonstrated that BIFF had been pivotal in repositioning Busan as a significant player in the international film industry and a vibrant cultural destination. In conclusion, Busan's status as Asia's "City of Film" should be sustained, and the ongoing significance of integrating cultural initiatives with wider urban development strategies should also be emphasized.
