Abstract

Health workers are often exposed to health risks and danger in the discharge of their duties. This is especially distressing during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study employs a multiple case study design to investigate the COVID-19 emergency management of frontline workers in South Africa, Kenya, Ghana, and Nigeria. The findings from the study reveal that governments in the selected countries prioritize the response phase of the emergency management theory over the mitigation and preparedness phases. The response phase was meted with inevitable consequences. Health workers feared risking their lives, and the majority threatened to abandon their jobs due to insufficient personal protective equipment (PPE) and welfare support. The study concludes that the government should prioritize all the phases of emergency management instead of focusing on the response phase, which involves the use of both human and financial resources on an overwhelming pandemic. They should have prepared the frontline workers adequately and equipped their health systems in preparation for any impending epidemic.

Abstract

Promising industrial profiles of Southeast Asian emerging economies have met their developmental limits in the face of the Asian Financial Crisis in the late 1990s. However, following the crisis, they have not been successful in upscaling the technological competitiveness of their industries. By applying the national innovation system approach originally developed in advanced western economies as an institutional mechanism of policy innovation in light of developmentalism, I seek to explain these persistent developmental limits in Malaysia and Indonesia. My qualitative research examines literature discussing policy coordination mechanisms in innovation policies and policy documents containing coordination mechanisms involving firms, universities, and government agencies; then, how these issues implicate innovation policies in the two countries. I employ a comparative institutional analysis between them focusing on institutional characteristics of the national innovation systems, specifically their institutional obstacles occurring within development paths amidst prevailing political environments. I suggest that persistent developmental limits in Malaysia and Indonesia result from systemic failures of achieving developmental aims regardless of their politico-administrative regimes. Existing institutional frameworks of the national innovation systems, entrenched in the socio-economic prevalence of the two countries, have not fit the nations’ developmental aims pursued upon innovation upgrading.

Abstract

This research describes the policy formulation of the odd-even traffic restriction system in DKI Jakarta from the perspective of an evidence- based policy. The odd-even policy seeks to solve congestion and environmental problems due to using private vehicles that have not been fully resolved. The researchers used the concept of evidence-based policy (Head, 2008) to understand three dimensions of evidence, namely political knowledge, scientific (research-based) knowledge, and practical implementation knowledge. The researchers used the post-positivist paradigm in this study to obtain a holistic analysis and to understand the possibility of other variables not discussed in previous theories through in-depth interviews and literature studies. The results show there was stakeholder involvement in the systemic-participatory process limited to NGOs and academics. Meanwhile, business interest groups were reactively involved through mass media support. The Transportation Department of DKI Jakarta had used data and information in the traffic restriction policy formulation with the odd-even system. Limitations in data resulted in the inability to provide a holistic picture related to traffic conditions and the effects of the odd-even policy implementation in DKI Jakarta. Practically, the odd-even policy formulation had shaped the preparedness of the implementing instruments in the odd-even policy implementation. Meanwhile, theoretically, this study found two determinant factors in the formation of political knowledge not stated by Head (2008), namely legal certainty and mass media role.

Abstract

Energy policy recently became an issue that has been highlighted by various parties, including academics in Indonesia. This coincides with the signs of the climate crisis, and the environmental damage that is affected by energy management. Although, there have been many studies discussing it, so far, there has been no research showing the direction of energy policy in Indonesia. Thus, this paper aims to map the trends in the literature. Bibliometric analysis is used to map topics raised from various research article by looking at the most common keywords, and identifying the most cited and productive sources. Per the results, the discussion of renewable energy and related topics became the dominant issue in the mapping of this main topic from 2003 to 2021. Then Energy Policy Journal the most cited reference, and the Iop Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science became the most productive source. The results of this study indicate indirectly, how far Indonesia's energy policy has developed periodically. Including how Indonesia amid various countries has been campaigning for renewable energy that pays attention to the environment. Besides, this research also provides future research agendas for others to examine energy policy in Indonesia from various perspectives that have not been studied previously.

Abstract

Understanding citizens’ satisfaction with public service is crucial for effective and efficient governance. In this milieu, this paper intended to examine the factors that drive citizen satisfaction with public service. Data on this topic were taken from the Nepal National Governance Survey 2017/18, and analyzed using a logistic regression model. The findings revealed that compliance with the rule, responsiveness, prompt service delivery, receiving service own self, and hassle-free service have a positive effect on citizen satisfaction, whereas paid/asked bribes and service attempts have a negative effect. Hence, cautious intervention in these factors is pivotal to ensure higher citizen satisfaction with public service.

Abstract

The progress of Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS) is presumed to pose challenges and implications for Indonesia. This study has the aim to investigate the impact of the recent development of sub-regional cooperation and cross-border economic development within GMS on Indonesia’s industrial development. Using qualitative methods, this study analyzed some variables, i.e., the background of GMS cooperation, infrastructure and investment progress, and Indonesia’s related economic policies and development. Data and information were collected from many sources (i.e., statistical databases, articles, newspapers, websites, un- and published documents, etc.) and presented qualitatively. This study found that GMS economic cooperation and development have lessons learned and implications for the industrial development in Indonesia. The efficiency of the service sector within GMS was contributed by the successful implementation of policies on infrastructure development since the beginning of the 1990s. The flying geese behavior and industrial fragmentation within GMS were contributed by a different stage of industrial development, different comparative advantage, and improvement of the service sector. The implication of GMS cooperation for Indonesia is the importance of public policy stability, more attractive investment of high-end products in GMS than Indonesia, and potential diminishing of Indonesia’s export.
