Abstract

Corruption control is a critical component of effective governance, particularly within local governments in Indonesia. This study examines the relationship between good governance indicators and corruption control within the local government of Yogyakarta City, Indonesia, aiming to identify key governance factors that influence anti-corruption efforts. A quantitative research approach was employed, using descriptive statistical methods to analyze data collected from questionnaires distributed to five local government agencies in Yogyakarta City. A total of 98 respondents were selected through purposive sampling. Data analysis was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Partial Least Squares (PLS) to assess the reliability, validity, and regression performance of the good governance indicators. Reliability was measured using Composite Reliability (CR), with values above 0.70 indicating strong reliability, and validity was assessed based on Outer Loading, with values above 0.70 considered valid. Regression analysis indicated that control of corruption, political stability, and voice and accountability significantly influence corruption control, with p-values of 0.010, 0.009, and 0.029, respectively. However, government effectiveness and the rule of law did not show a significant impact on corruption control, with p-values of 0.381 and 0.799. These findings suggest that specific governance factors, such as political stability and accountability, play a critical role in addressing corruption within local governments in Indonesia. The study introduces a novel approach by employing a quantitative SEM-PLS method to examine good governance indicators in Yogyakarta City. The findings suggest that government effectiveness and the rule of law may not have a significant influence on corruption control, challenging common assumptions in governance research.

Abstract

This study seeks to determine whether the lowland rice farmers of Iligan City are socially sustainable by looking at their lived experiences, their engage- ment with local policy-making, and the government’s support towards them. The study used a qualitative research design employing a case study method on three farmers’ associations in the city. Purposive sampling is utilized for selecting the respondents, whereby the rice farmers and the relevant local government officials, and CSOs have undergone KIIs. In contrast, the officers of the cited farmers’ associations: TUFA, SUFA, and ZRFWA, underwent FGDs. Thematic analysis is then utilized to treat the data. The inquiry into the farm- ers’ lived experiences revealed the human cost of ineffective government support, where laws fail to translate into sufficient tangible benefits for the farmers, and sentiments reflecting eroded trust and isolationism inevitably arise when they feel unheard. With politicking and resource constraints crip- pling their policy influence, stringent eligibility criteria for government support hindering them from getting any; and reactive, short-term solutions failing to address their susceptibility to climate change— the farmers’ welfare is, there- fore, trapped in a cycle of ayuda or governmental temporary reliefs. The study found that the local government policies have demonstrably failed to achieve social sustainability for the lowland rice farmers.
