Abstract

This study aims to analyze publication trends related to the ICT Government in Indonesia with a scientomertic approach. This study uses data analysis methods from Scopus with RStudio, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace applications to visualize and analyze publications. The findings show that Indonesian authors dominate ICT Government research with 172 documents, while the contributions of authors from Malaysia, the United States, and the Netherlands provide an important international perspective. The main research topics include e-government, smart cities, and sustainable development. The findings demonstrate the role of ICTs in improving government efficiency, transparency, and civic engagement. However, publications declined in 2022, possibly due to changing research priorities or the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The implication of this study is the importance of international collaboration and improved technological infrastructure. The limitation of this study is the limited data that is only taken from Scopus, and it does not include analysis of interviews or direct observations that can enrich the understanding of ICT government implementation.

Abstract

This study addresses issues of bureaucratic inefficiency and low public participation in governance by systematically mapping the scope of digital innovation in local governance throughout Southeast Asia. The research seeks to understand how technology aids governance outcomes, guided by the region’s disparities in digital infrastructure and institutional readiness. The study conducts a systematic literature review of 996 publications from Scopus, following the PRISMA protocol and employing bibliometric analysis via RStudio-Biblioshiny and CiteSpace to derive trends, themes, and gaps concerning Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and the Philippines. The results demonstrate and actively reinforce the three dominant innovation clusters: smart cities, e-government systems, and citizen participation platforms that foster greater democratic engagement alongside improved administrative efficiency. The analysis emphasizes the factors critical for successful digital transformation: institutional readiness, digital competency, and cross-organizational collaboration. By synthesizing regional best practices and thematic patterns, the research provides strategic recommendations for policymakers aiming to cultivate flexible, inclusive, and ethically responsible frameworks of implications focused on formulated digital governance. These findings emphasize the need to align technology with community needs and participatory processes, thereby directing further research on interoperability, AI ethics, and public trust in digital public administration.Studi ini membahas masalah ketidak efisienan birokrasi dan rendahnya partisipasi publik dalam tata kelola pemerintahan dengan secara sistematis memetakan ruang lingkup inovasi digital dalam tata kelola pemerintahan di seluruh Asia Tenggara. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami bagaimana teknologi mendukung hasil tata kelola pemerintahan, dengan mempertimbangkan disparitas infrastruktur digital dan kesiapan institusional di wilayah tersebut. Studi ini melakukan tinjauan literatur sistematis terhadap 996 publikasi dari Scopus, mengikuti protokol PRISMA, dan menggunakan analisis bibliometrik melalui RStudio-Biblioshiny dan CiteSpace untuk mengidentifikasi tren, tema, dan celah terkait Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapura, Thailand, dan Filipina. Hasilnya menunjukkan dan secara aktif memperkuat tiga kluster inovasi dominan: kota pintar, sistem e-pemerintahan, dan platform partisipasi warga yang mendorong keterlibatan demokratis yang lebih besar bersamaan dengan efisiensi administratif yang lebih baik. Analisis ini menyoroti faktor-faktor kritis untuk transformasi digital yang sukses: kesiapan institusional, kompetensi digital, dan kolaborasi lintas organisasi. Dengan mensintesis praktik terbaik regional dan pola tematik, penelitian ini memberikan rekomendasi strategis bagi pembuat kebijakan yang bertujuan untuk mengembangkan kerangka kerja yang fleksibel, inklusif, dan etis dalam tata kelola digital. Temuan ini menekankan pentingnya menyelaraskan teknologi dengan kebutuhan komunitas dan proses partisipatif, sehingga mengarahkan penelitian lebih lanjut pada interoperabilitas, etika AI, dan kepercayaan publik dalam administrasi publik digital.

Abstract

Scholarship on women in political leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic highlights their notable effectiveness in crisis governance. While some scholars attribute this to gendered traits, others point to institutional, political, and economic factors. However, limited research has examined the lived experiences of women leaders to understand what drives their crisis responses. This study addresses that gap by exploring how women at the local level, specifically women Punong Barangays (PBs) in Bukidnon Province, Philippines, perceived their leadership roles during the pandemic, focusing on the challenges they faced and the strategies they employed to overcome them. Using a phenomenological approach, data were collected through key informant interviews with purposive and snowball sampling. Data triangulation and ethical procedures, including informed consent, ensured validity and reliability. Thematic collation analysis revealed that women PBs encountered non-cooperation from residents, health risks, resource shortages, organizational constraints, emotional and physical strain, and role conflicts. To navigate these, they employed strategic communication, community education, and local partnerships to foster cooperation and address immediate needs. Effective resource management, personal resilience, and strong support networks, including family and faith, were instrumental in sustaining their efforts. Ultimately, these women viewed their leadership as a mandated duty, driven by commitment to public service and their close connection to grassroots communities. Findings suggest that women’s effectiveness in crisis leadership stems not only from gendered attributes but also from motivations such as civic responsibility, community proximity, and emotional strength. The study contributes to rethinking women’s political leadership in decentralized governance and offers insights for policy reforms to better support local women leaders beyond gendered expectations.
