The challenges of renewable energy at the village level leave problems that are not yet optimal in practice to facilitate public needs, especially in Maluriwu Village, Sikka Regency, East Nusa Tenggara. Although the provision of renewable energy supports the provision of public services, the facts are not significant. Furthermore, the method adopted is descriptive qualitative to understand the problem of renewable energy as a means of providing public needs at the village level. Data were obtained through interviews by identifying participants competent in providing information related to the research theme. The findings reveal that there is a gap between community participation and community expectations when planning programs. There is a lack of community representation in the discussion forums that were initiated, where there are concerns and dissatisfaction with the program promised by the government. In general, these findings require special attention from the government to village residents to provide public services through appropriate policies.

The adoption of GovTech in Indonesia is still relatively minimal, with several reflections (e.i., potential, obstacles and lessons learned) in concretisation not yet fully actualised proportionally and consistently through the government as the party responsible. Pertinent to this, this study focuses on the actualisation of GovTech in Indonesia and other countries as empirical evidence in the analysis to find applicable solutions, with a focus on potential barriers and lessons that can be educated from the transformation process, especially the digitalisation of the public sector through GovTech practices. The findings display limited infrastructure, a digital skills gap among government employees, and resistance to technological change in comprehensive GovTech practices. Thereupon, urgency emphasised from this that in building GovTech, it is necessary to pay attention to the element of public trust, involve citizens in the change process, and encourage collaboration between the government/private sector, which is highly emphasised in GovTech practices. Notwithstanding GovTech can elevate transparency, service quality, and citizen involvement, its adoption in Indonesia still faces significant barriers, including uneven concretisation between regions and a lack of resources and training. Finally, we underline the solution requires a more intensive approach, including expanding digital access, training for government employees, and building public trust in GovTech practices.

Digital initiatives have great potential to enhance the quality of life in rural communities. However, for the benefits to be evenly distributed, this process must be inclusive. The West Java government has taken crucial steps through the “Rural Digitalization” program and supporting regulations in 2022. Moreover, barriers such as uneven internet infrastructure, low digital literacy, and minimal use of technology in key sectors such as agriculture, fisheries, and livestock are still major barriers. Coupled with weak coordination between levels of government and budget constraints, it also slows down realisation in the field. This study aims to identify gaps in the initiative of rural digitalisation and offer practical solutions. Through a descriptive qualitative approach and literature study, it was found that access to technology needs to be balanced with locally relevant skills, confidence, and innovation. This study offers a roadmap in the form of mobile-based digital training, a community internet model, and affordable technology solutions. Then, the success of digital initiatives in rural areas depends on long-term collaboration between the government, private sector, and community.

Background: Renewable energy in rural areas is a complex issue with interactive effects, thus reveals the dynamics of governance barriers in Indonesia that have not been resolved since the responsibility through the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) initiative framework was delegated to local (rural) governments to be actualized in the field, but if seen in reality the results have not been significant, so that the expected goals have not been achieved consistently. Methods: The study applied a qualitative descriptive approach and content analysis to investigate, comprehend, and analyze the dynamic governance of renewable energy in rural areas, with a special focus on Indonesia. Finding: The key findings reveal that crumbling governance is the main issue at the central-local level structure in actualizing the renewable energy initiative. Hence, policy misalignment, duplicated efforts, and inefficient initiatives affect the governance dynamics. Conclusion: The study concludes that the Indonesian government (central-local) must intensify the institutional frameworks, foster stakeholder collaboration, simplify regulatory processes, and assist local capacity building to move forward. These steps will enable more efficient, responsive, and sustainable renewable energy governance in rural areas. Novelty/Originality of this article: The novelty contributes to the broad scientific implications of renewable energy as a governance framework to elicit prosperity for the community in rural areas of Indonesia and other developing countries based on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for affordable and clean energy prospects.

Driving transformation for e-governance becomes a role to play in assisting the government’s public-sector initiative. The reason for this is that e-governance must be inclusive. Our reason for this attempt is to examine the nexus of innovation that Indonesia and Vietnam have actualized. Both countries have advanced digital infrastructure in recent years, yet progress in human capital development, especially digital skills, has not kept pace. Based on this, we explore e-governance through public-private sector engagement, stress the growing gap between technological progress and citizens’ digital skills, and examine trends in digital infrastructure development, using secondary data from published surveys. The findings note that e-governance has made great strides, but human capital development is still lagging, with slower growth in digital skills. The implications of this essay underline the critical role of entities’ engagement in advancing e-governance and call for greater investment in digital literacy to enable all citizens to recognize the essence of digital transformation and ensure inclusive and sustainable progress.

This essay examines the implementation of the One-Stop Integrated Service (PTSP) policy at the Tarakan City Ministry of Religious Affairs Office, focusing on the obstacles to optimizing public services. Furthermore, the researcher uses a qualitative descriptive approach to examine how the PTSP policy is implemented and the obstacles encountered in each stage of the service delivery process. Data are then collected through interviews with key informants involved in the actual implementation of the PTSP policy. The research findings indicate that the implementation of the PTSP policy at the Tarakan City Ministry of Religious Affairs Office has not fully achieved its objectives due to limited human resources, budget constraints, and inadequate infrastructure. Similarly, although the policy has the potential to streamline services, operational obstacles persist, resulting in suboptimal effectiveness and delays in implementation. In summary, this essay confirms that the literature on public policy implementation argues that, although the PTSP policy aims to improve service efficiency, its success depends heavily on basic resources and institutional support.
