Abstract

The Indonesian National Police (Polri) has experienced ups and downs in building a positive image in interacting with the public. This decline in trust is caused by the emergence of various issues that show the low performance of the police. In the Ferdy Sambo case study, the performance and integrity of the police is at stake and the sensitivity of the police to meet public expectations. One solution to im-prove the image is through an effective public relations strategy. However, to develop it, a deep un-derstanding of the characteristics and interaction patterns between social media through social net-work analysis is required. This research aims to identify influential X/Twitter actors in the case study of Inspector General Ferdy Sambo by applying the centrality method in Social Network User Analysis. The results of centrality analysis on the network show a wide variety of centrality levels. The @Zaindamai account dominates with the highest Degree Centrality value of 0.426829, indicating the number of connections in the network. The main role in disseminating information is held by @Zaindamai with the highest Betweenness Centrality value of 0.325748, indicating its role in connect-ing various networks. @Rizkynu46127931 stands out in Closeness Centrality with a high value of 0.497791, signifying quick and efficient access to all parts of the social network. In addition, @Rizkynu46127931 has significant influence in the network based on the highest Eigenvector Cen-trality of 0.245625. This centrality value forms the basis for formulating a more focused public relations strategy, improving the efficiency of communication with stakeholders, and designing a more concrete public relations plan.
