Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of the Padang City Government in responding to the resistance of street vendors (PKL) against the policy prohibiting trading in the Pasar Raya area of Padang City. The policy was implemented to create an orderly, clean, and aesthetic urban space by relocating the vendors to the newly built Phase VII Market Building. However, the relocation policy triggered resistance from the vendors who viewed it as neglecting their economic and social conditions. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach, using interviews, observations, and documentation as data collection techniques. The findings reveal that the government’s roles as a stabilizer, innovator, modernizer, pioneer, and implementer have not been optimally carried out. The main obstacles include low vendor participation, insufficient socialization, weak inter-agency coordination, and limited facilities in the new location. The study concludes that the government needs to adopt participatory and dialogical approaches to manage social resistance effectively. Such approaches are essential for ensuring that public policies are both equitable and sustainable in addressing the economic interests of marginalized urban communities.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the role of the Gayo Lues Regency Government in handling road damage and its impact on community activities in Umelah Village, Blang Pegayon District. The current condition of the roads in Umelah Village is very concerning because they are potholed, gravelly, and slippery when it rains, thereby hampering community activities in the economic, educational, and public service sectors. This study uses Michael Todaro's (1998) theory, which explains the role of government in infrastructure development, including the provision of facilities and infrastructure, improving community efficiency and productivity, public accessibility, and coordination and resource management. Based on interviews with the Public Works Office, the Blang Pegayon Sub-District Head, the Umelah Village Head, KUA (Office of Religious Affairs) employees, and the community, it was found that the government has taken initial steps such as surveying and measuring the roads, but repairs have not been carried out due to budget constraints, damaged equipment, and development priority policies. As a result, community activities have been disrupted and their welfare has declined. Greater attention is needed from the government in terms of equitable development so that infrastructure can be enjoyed fairly by the entire community
