Abstract

This study examines the dynamics of media spatialization in Indonesia’s digital political economy by analyzing selected Twitter (now X) accounts using Vincent Mosco’s theoretical framework. It explores how symbolic and algorithmic spatialization practices are employed by various digital actors, including political propagandists (@PartaiSocmed), grassroots storytellers (@txtdrberseragam), and mainstream media outlets (@detikcom and @kompascom) to shape public discourse and assert communicative power. Through a combination of critical analysis and qualitative methods, this research identifies key factors such as emotional engagement, narrative strategies, and algorithmic amplification that reinforce belief systems within digital platforms. The findings suggest that Twitter/X operates not only as a communication tool but also as a contested arena where power is negotiated and redistributed through visibility algorithms, emotional resonance, and content commodification. This study contributes to the broader field of digital political economy by offering a hybrid analytical approach that integrates Mosco’s spatialization theory with contemporary notions of algorithmic governance. It highlights how both institutional and non-institutional actors reshape symbolic power in Indonesia's evolving digital public sphere.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of service quality on customer satisfaction at GOT Travel Batam, an online travel agent operating in Batam, Indonesia. The research addresses the problem of how different dimensions of service quality shape customer satisfaction in a digital travel-service context, where interactions are mediated by online platforms rather than face-to-face encounters. The main objective is to identify which dimensions of service quality significantly influence customer satisfaction and which dimension is the most dominant. A quantitative descriptive–verificative approach was applied using a survey of customers who had used GOT Travel Batam at least once in 2024–2025. A sample of 95 respondents was obtained through purposive sampling and analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Service quality was measured through the SERVQUAL dimensions of tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy, while customer satisfaction was treated as the dependent variable. The results indicate that reliability and empathy have positive and significant effects on customer satisfaction, whereas tangibles, responsiveness, and assurance do not show significant effects in the proposed model. Empathy emerges as the most dominant dimension, followed by reliability. Overall, the findings suggest that online travel customers place greater emphasis on personal attention and dependable service performance than on physical evidence or mere response speed.In conclusion, service quality remains critical for customer satisfaction in digital OTAs, but the hierarchy of dimensions shifts empathy and reliability become the dominant drivers while tangibles, responsiveness, and assurance lose their direct influence
