Abstract

Digital transformation in public administration is a strategic effort to achieve governance that is effective, efficient, and accountable. This study examines the implementation of the Rapid Introductory Letter Administration Service System (SIMANTAP) in Samboja District as a digital innovation in personnel services, aiming to identify factors that hinder its optimal operation. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. Informants included the Head of Samboja District, the Head of the General and Personnel Subdivision, and SIMANTAP operators at district and village levels. Data were analyzed through data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing, using Edward III’s policy implementation model, encompassing communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The findings indicate that initial socialization of SIMANTAP reached 85% of target personnel but lacked ongoing communication. While 90% of staff demonstrated readiness and positive commitment, only 60% had stable access to functional computers and reliable internet. No dedicated budget exists in the regional budget (APBD), and structured monitoring mechanisms are absent. The study concludes that SIMANTAP has strong potential as a district-level e-government model, but its adoption is constrained by limited technological infrastructure, inadequate budgetary support, and a lack of systematic evaluation. Strengthening policy guidance, enhancing staff capacity, modernizing ICT infrastructure, and allocating budgets are critical to ensuring sustainable and effective implementation.

Abstract

Limited and uneven community participation remains a critical barrier to local economic development, particularly in resource-rich peripheral regions where externally driven interventions frequently fail to generate inclusive and sustainable outcomes. This study therefore aims to analyze the patterns, determinants, and implications of community participation in local economic development in Tanjung Laut Indah Village, Bontang City, East Kalimantan, with a particular focus on how regional potential can be strategically leveraged to strengthen participatory processes and outcomes. A qualitative research design was employed, combining in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis; the data were interpreted using the Sustainable Livelihood Framework to examine the interactions among natural, human, social, physical, and financial capital. The findings indicate heterogeneous participation typologies: approximately 45% of residents engage in active participation, 30% participate passively, 15% are not involved, and 10% display counterproductive or resistant behaviors. Active participation is concentrated among fishermen, housewives operating micro-enterprises, and youth engaged in technology-based initiatives, demonstrating the potential of locally driven actions to create economic value, strengthen social cohesion, and support sustainable livelihood strategies. In contrast, passive, non-involvement, and resistance are shaped by top-down program designs, limited skills, resource constraints, institutional barriers, and conflicting interests that vary across demographic groups and over time. The study concludes that effective local economic development requires multidimensional, context-sensitive strategies that integrate capacity building, inclusive decision-making, and equitable resource distribution. The novelty of this research lies in its empirical classification of participation typologies explicitly linked to livelihood assets, providing a more granular understanding of participation dynamics. These results contribute conceptually and practically by informing policymakers and development practitioners in designing resilient, equitable, and participatory local economic initiatives that promote sustainable growth and community empowerment.

Abstract

This study is motivated by the persistent gap between Indonesia’s increasingly robust legal framework on open government and the uneven realization of public information disclosure at the local level, where transparency practices remain fragmented and often exclusionary. The research aims to examine how public information disclosure is operationalized in Berbas Tengah Urban Village, with particular emphasis on the interplay between regulatory mandates, institutional capacity, information technology, and community participation under Regional Regulation Number 6 of 2020. A descriptive qualitative design was employed through a single-case study, combining in-depth interviews with village officials and community members, participatory observation of information service practices, and document analysis of regulatory instruments, planning documents, and activity reports; the data were analyzed thematically using a good governance framework that foregrounds transparency, accountability, and participation. The findings show that effective disclosure is driven by institutional commitment, the establishment of an information management structure, and the strategic use of digital platforms, while it is constrained by limited human resources, infrastructural gaps, and low digital as well as legal literacy. Community participation emerges as both a driver and a barometer of disclosure—functioning as social control and performance evaluation—yet remains skewed toward more educated and digitally literate groups, thereby reproducing digital and social inequalities. The study concludes that public information disclosure is not merely a procedural or administrative requirement but a governance practice that can enhance responsiveness, trust, and accountability at the village level when it is adequately supported. The novelty of this research lies in its integrated analysis of digital transparency and civic participation within a subnational urban context, revealing a non-linear relationship between technology access, participation levels, and governance quality. Empirically, the study advances the literature on local governance and transparency in the Global South and, in practical terms, offers insights for policymakers to design more inclusive, technology-enabled information regimes that reduce digital divides and strengthen grassroots democratic governance
