Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of the Department of Education and Culture in preserving local culture in Bengkulu City. The research applies a qualitative method with data collected through interviews and observations. The study involved five informants, consisting of two key informants and three supporting informants. The findings reveal that the Department of Education and Culture performs several major roles: first, formulating and implementing cultural policies through cultural data collection; second, fostering communities and traditional institutions through active communication with the Regional Customary Council, although financial support remains limited; third, preparing cultural management materials annually, despite weaknesses in reporting and follow-up systems; and fourth, preserving traditions and cultural values that are increasingly adopted by the younger generation, although globalization and modern lifestyles remain significant challenges. The study concludes that despite the active role of the Department of Education and Culture, cultural preservation efforts continue to face obstacles, particularly in terms of funding, strengthening cultural data, and community participation.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Bengkulu City Transportation Agency’s management using Henry Fayol’s Management Theory, which includes planning, organizing, directing, coordinating, and controlling functions. The study employed a descriptive qualitative method with an empirical approach through interviews, field observations, and reviews of official documents. The findings show that planning functions are based on field surveys and accident-prone area identification but are not yet integrated into real-time data-based information systems and are hindered by budget limitations. The organizing function has a clear regulatory basis but is constrained by a lack of technical personnel, limited training, and insufficient equipment, causing reliance on third parties. The directing function is carried out through assignment letters and verbal instructions but lacks written SOPs, leading to inconsistencies in implementation. Internal and external coordination is not yet optimal due to the absence of digital management systems. The controlling function is the weakest aspect, as monitoring remains reactive without routine inspections and technological support. Overall, the Bengkulu City Transportation Agency’s management in handling traffic signs and road markings has attempted to apply management principles but has not been optimally implemented. Management reforms through system digitalization, human resource enhancement, equipment updates, and accident-priority data-based planning are urgently needed to improve traffic service effectiveness.
