Abstract

This study analyzes the potential impact of the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JSSEZ) on the development and competitiveness of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in Batam. Initiated through a high-level agreement between Malaysia and Singapore, the JSSEZ represents a strategic advancement in regional economic cooperation, aiming to integrate complementary strengths such as land and labor in Johor with Singapore’s financial and technological capital. This paper adopts a systematic literature review method to compare the design, sectoral focus, and investment incentives of JSSEZ with existing SEZs in Batam. The study finds significant overlap in priority sectors, such as electronics manufacturing, digital economy, and logistics, which raises both competitive risks and collaborative opportunities. The analysis highlights that while Batam benefits from geographic proximity to Singapore and a long-established industrial base, it faces challenges in infrastructure, regulatory efficiency, and skilled labor retention. The paper argues that JSSEZ could either intensify competition or open up new synergies depending on policy responses and investment strategies. The study concludes that proactive alignment and regional coordination could transform the perceived competition into a mutually beneficial economic corridor.

Abstract

This study evaluates the waste management system implemented by the Kampar Regency Environment Agency in Kubang Jaya Village. This study aims to assess the effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, responsiveness, and accuracy of waste management policies. A qualitative approach is used, utilizing interviews, observations, and document analysis to collect data. The findings show that waste management remains suboptimal due to limited waste collection, inadequate facilities, and budget limitations. The absence of routine waste transportation and inadequate community participation further exacerbate this problem. Additionally, the lack of a structured waste management system results in reactive rather than preventive action. Waste collection is only available in certain areas, so many households handle waste disposal independently. The absence of waste sorting at the source and the limited capacity of waste disposal facilities further complicate waste management efforts. The findings also reveal that government responses are often slow, with the accumulation of waste leading to environmental and health hazards. Although some initiatives, such as community-based waste management programs and waste banks, have been introduced, their implementation has remained inconsistent. The study highlights the need for increased budget allocation, infrastructure improvements, and increased community engagement to ensure sustainable waste management. Collaborative efforts between governments, the private sector, and local communities are essential to develop an integrated waste management system. Future research should expand its scope to other villages to provide a more comprehensive analysis of waste management throughout Kampar Regency. Overcoming these challenges requires long-term policy planning, regulatory enforcement, and public awareness campaigns

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between structural transformation and regional inequality in Kepulauan Riau (Kepri), Indonesia, a province strategically located as an industrial and service hub yet marked by persistent disparities. While the Kuznets hypothesis suggests an inverted-U link between growth and inequality, evidence from archipelagic economies remains limited. The main purpose of this research is to assess whether Kepri follows or diverges from the Kuznets trajectory by analyzing sectoral shifts and their implications for inequality dynamics. Using provincial macro and microeconomic data, this study applies panel data econometrics and productivity decomposition techniques to evaluate both within-sector growth and labor reallocation effects. The results reveal that industrial expansion generates high productivity but limited employment opportunities, while services act as a labor sponge with weak welfare contributions. This dualistic pattern, termed the “structural change penalty,” has amplified inequality across sectors and regions rather than reducing it. The findings underscore the need for stronger industrial linkages, service sector upgrading, and inclusive regional policies to ensure that structural transformation fosters broad-based and equitable development. By shifting the analytical focus from the national to the sub-national level, this study contributes new insights into the role of local governance, spatial politics, and policy choices in shaping divergent development paths in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines and compares the compliance levels of Indonesia and Singapore with the International Maritime Organization’s Convention on Facilitation of International Maritime Traffic (FAL Convention), focusing on its implications for international shipping standards. The background of this research lies in the growing importance of administrative efficiency and digital integration in port operations as essential determinants of maritime competitiveness. Both countries, situated along vital international trade routes, have ratified the FAL Convention; however, their implementation outcomes differ significantly. The main objective of this study is to evaluate how far both states have operationalized facilitation obligations, including the use of standardized FAL forms, electronic reporting systems, Maritime Single Window (MSW) implementation, and the enforcement of inspection facilitation principles. Using a qualitative comparative method based on document analysis, the research reviews legal frameworks, official port authority guidelines, and international compliance reports. The findings reveal that Singapore exhibits full compliance across all FAL indicators, supported by an integrated MSW, mandatory electronic data exchange, and consistent application of inspection facilitation procedures. Indonesia demonstrates partial compliance, with major ports showing progress in digital reporting but with smaller ports still constrained by limited interoperability, uneven enforcement, and fragmented administrative coordination. These variations stem from institutional capacity gaps, regulatory misalignment, and differing levels of digital readiness. The study concludes that enhancing inter-agency coordination, standardizing inspection procedures, and improving MSW interoperability are critical strategies for Indonesia to strengthen its compliance with the FAL Convention and improve port facilitation performance within global maritime governance.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the implementation of downstream tourism policies, as well as examine the role of actors in the framework of the Penta Helix, which includes the government, academia, the business world, the community, and the media. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach, with primary data obtained through in-depth interviews and observations, as well as secondary data from regional policy documents such as RPJMD and RIPPDA. The analysis was carried out using thematic analysis techniques, focusing on the stages of planning, implementation, and the dynamics of collaboration between actors. The results of the study show that the implementation of downstream tourism policy in the Riau Islands has been running through cross-sector programs oriented towards strengthening the creative economy, training human resources, and digitizing destination promotion. The government plays the role of policy director and main facilitator, while academics, the business world, the community, and the media have begun to collaborate in supporting the implementation of the policy. However, the level of coordination between actors still needs to be strengthened so that collaboration is more functional and sustainable. In conclusion, the application of the Penta Helix model in the implementation of downstream tourism policies in Riau Islands Province has shown significant progress towards collaborative governance. Effective collaboration is the main key in ensuring policy sustainability and optimizing the tourism potential of this archipelagic region.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the creative industry governance strategy in making the Riau Islands Province an export outlet for Indonesia's creative economy. This study uses a qualitative approach with descriptive-analytical methods through literature studies and policy analysis. Research data were obtained from national policy documents, government reports, the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), scientific publications, and various documents related to creative economy development. This study uses a Sub-Regional Development perspective to explain how geographical advantages and strategic area development can be utilized to  strengthen  the position of the Riau Islands in regional and international economic networks. The results show that the creative industry governance strategy in the Riau Islands is implemented through the development of three strategic areas with complementary functions, namely Gurindam 12 Tanjungpinang as an education center and strengthening of creative human resources, Lobam Bintan as an industrial area and downstreaming of creative products, and Harbour Bay Batam as  a showcase area and international market connectivity. The integration of  these  three  areas forms a creative industry value chain ranging from capacity development and production to promotion and marketing. However, challenges remain in the form of institutional coordination, strengthening the capacity of creative actors, protecting intellectual property, and optimizing global market access. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen governance based on collaboration between actors and cross-sectoral policies to increase the competitiveness of the Riau Islands' creative industry in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

Abstrak: Investasi asing merupakan salah satu instrumen pembangunan ekonomi yang mendorong pertumbuhan industri, penciptaan lapangan kerja, dan pengembangan pusat pertumbuhan baru melalui Kawasan Ekonomi Khusus (KEK). Provinsi Kepulauan Riau menjadi wilayah strategis dalam pengembangan KEK karena posisi geografis dan potensi ekonominya. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis dinamika investasi asing dan pengembangan konsep transmigrasi serta keterkaitannya dengan pengembangan KEK di Provinsi Kepulauan Riau. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode studi kasus dan data sekunder yang diperoleh melalui studi pustaka, studi dokumen, serta penelusuran arsip online dan offline. Data dianalisis menggunakan model Miles dan Huberman melalui reduksi data, penyajian data, serta penarikan dan verifikasi kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa investasi asing melalui KEK mendorong pembangunan ekonomi, pengembangan industri, dan perubahan tata ruang yang berdampak pada masyarakat lokal. Perubahan tersebut turut mendorong berkembangnya konsep transmigrasi lokal sebagai bagian dari pembangunan kawasan. Hubungan investasi dan transmigrasi bersifat tidak langsung dan struktural, melalui tahapan pengembangan kawasan, kebutuhan lahan, perubahan tata ruang, serta penataan masyarakat. Penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa transmigrasi lokal mengalami pergeseran dari instrumen redistribusi penduduk menjadi instrumen pembangunan kawasan, dengan syarat menjamin hak masyarakat, keberlanjutan mata pencaharian, dan partisipasi dalam pembangunan.
