Abstract

This study aims to analyze existing conditions, identify key constraints, and formulate an optimal and sustainable inter-island maritime transportation development model in Huamual Belakang District, West Seram Regency, Maluku Province. This study utilized a qualitative case study approach and the data was collected through field observations, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The analysis is supported by SWOT analysis and Internal Factor Evaluation (IFE) and External Factor Evaluation (EFE) matrices to assess internal and external conditions. The findings indicate that the current maritime transportation system is not yet optimal, as reflected in disparities in port infrastructure capacity, an imbalanced vessel-to-population ratio (1:1,916), high operational costs, and fragmented institutional arrangements. Despite these limitations, the region demonstrates substantial local economic potential and promising opportunities for digital technology convergence. Based on the analysis, the proposed development model emphasizes an integrated approach that combines a hub-and-spoke system with Hatu Port as the primary hub, integration of supply chains for leading commodities, particularly fisheries and cloves, supported by cold storage facilities, cross-subsidy mechanisms through a Public Service Obligation (PSO) scheme, and the adoption of a digital platform, “E-Sampan,” to improve efficiency and accessibility. Strategic recommendations focus on institutional consolidation through the establishment of an integrated management authority, capacity enhancement of feeder port infrastructure, the addition of seaworthy vessels, and strengthening human resources through training and certification programs. The implementation of this model is expected to serve as a catalyst for improved connectivity, reduced logistics costs, and accelerated inclusive and sustainable local economic growth.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors that influence Regional Fiscal Capacity (KFD) in Ambon City. The study used secondary time series data for 10 years (2014–2023) in Ambon City. The analysis method used was Multiple Linear Regression with the dependent variable (Y) being the Fiscal Capacity Index, and the independent variables being Regional Original Income (PAD) (X1), Economic Growth Rate (X2), and Population (X3). Key Results: The results of the regression analysis showed that the independent variables PAD (X1), Economic Growth Rate (X2), and Population (X3) did not have a significant effect on the Regional Fiscal Capacity of Ambon City. Implications/ConsequencesAruan:TeamThis study provides an empirical contribution because it differs from general assumptions and previous research (state of the art), which often shows a positive relationship. These results highlight a unique problem or phenomenon in Ambon City, where the theoretically common factors driving fiscal capacity (PAD, economic growth, population) are not working effectively.
