Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.

Abstract

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.
