Abstract

This paper investigates the challenges and potential solutions for absentee voting among Indonesian migrant workers in Malaysia during the 2024 General Election. Key issues include administrative inefficiencies, outdated voter lists, legal ambiguities, and vulnerabilities in postal voting, exacerbated by geographic and socio-economic barriers, particularly for rural and undocumented workers. Using qualitative content analysis with NVivo, the study explores how Information and Communication Technology (ICT), such as digital voter registration and blockchain voting, can enhance transparency, data accuracy, and election security. The research is novel in its focus on ICT solutions tailored to the unique challenges faced by Indonesian migrants in Malaysia, a topic that has been largely overlooked. It underscores the importance of coordinated efforts among government agencies, NGOs, and technology providers for effective implementation. While ICT offers promising opportunities for reform, challenges related to infrastructure, digital literacy, and voter trust remain significant. The study provides practical recommendations for improving absentee voting, with broader implications for countries with large expatriate populations, emphasizing the need for multi-stakeholder collaboration to ensure inclusivity and electoral integrity. Future recommendations should focus on addressing these challenges and maximizing the potential of ICT. Comprehensive policy reforms are needed to clarify legal ambiguities and streamline administrative processes, making voter registration and voting mechanisms more accessible and efficient. Governments should invest in robust digital infrastructure and implement digital literacy programs to empower migrant workers, especially those in rural areas or with undocumented status. Advanced technologies like blockchain should be further explored to enhance transparency, security, and data accuracy in absentee voting systems. Collaboration among government agencies, NGOs, and technology providers is essential for successful implementation. Future research should also examine the long-term impact of ICT-based voting systems on voter trust and participation, as well as conduct comparative studies with other countries facing similar challenges.

Abstract

Digital village represents the implementation of digital transformation at the rural level, aimed at improving public services, efficiency, and accountability. This research aims to examine human resource readiness and efforts to improve it. The research was conducted using a qualitative approach. Data collection was carried out through interviews with participants from the Ciawi Village government. Data analysis utilized the People Capability Maturity Model. The research findings revealed that at level 2 (Managed), the Ciawi Village government does not yet have sufficient readiness to face digital village transformation. Based on the process areas of the People Capability Maturity Model, several areas require attention, specifically work environment, performance management, and training and development. The Ciawi Village government needs to develop its physical work environment to enhance community services and support village officials productivity. It needs to consider performance management to identify areas requiring development. This creates its relevancy with training and development programs to ensure alignment with digital transformation needs. The limitation of this research was that it specifically analyzed the readiness of Ciawi Village’s human resources aspect in facing the digital village transformation; it did not consider the readiness of any other aspects such as digital infrastructure and digital literacy. Future research will emphasize on digital literacy of the village community, broadening the scope of the digital village transformation readiness analysis.

Abstract

Recent studies explain that the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a complex situation for government policies. This study aims to see the capabilities of social capital during the pandemic, as an alternative to effective disaster management. This article is written based on qualitative research principles, through literature analysis of 35 articles obtained from the Scopus database on social capital and handling of COVID-19 cases. Furthermore, the analysis was carried out using the VosViewer application (density and overlay visualization) to see the network of interrelated and relevant concepts. Topics related to this explain that disaster management studies recognize that social capital has an important role in understanding community-based disaster management efforts, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research trend leads to a typology of social capital that is similar in each community even though it is in different regions, the findings are also followed by a trend that community social capital actually strengthens and is very persuasive in disaster situations, even quite effectively contributing to the process of dealing with the impact of disasters, especially for community social recovery. This research study contributes to the approach to formulating disaster risk mitigation policies based on community social capital capacity.

Abstract

Researchers and practitioners have articulated that Organizational Factors and Individual Factors constitute pivotal elements in influencing the Willingness of Employees, specifically in the context of the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) to implement policies. The objective of this research was to assess the impact and quantify the extent to which the Core Values of ASN BerAKHLAK and ASN Motivation (Public Service Motivation) affect the willingness of ASNs to implement the policy regarding the utilization of the Integrated Discipline (I'DIS) application in the administration of ASN Discipline, both in a simultaneous and partial context. The sample population for this study comprised 67 ASNs employed within the Discipline Management Sub Division across 49 Personnel Working Units at Government Institutions situated within the jurisdiction of Regional Office VII of the Palembang National Civil Service Agency. The data were subjected to analysis through the application of Multiple Regression tests and Hypothesis testing utilizing SPSS Version 29.0. The findings from the analysis indicate that the Core Values of ASN BerAKHLAK and ASN Motivation collectively exert an influence on ASN's propensity to adopt the policy regarding the utilization of the I'DIS application in the management of ASN Discipline. Nevertheless, when examined individually, it is solely ASN Motivation that demonstrates a significant effect on ASN's willingness to implement the policy of employing the I'DIS application for the purposes of managing ASN Discipline.

Abstract

The phenomenon of child labor, especially for women in the urban informal sector, is still a complex social problem in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the factors that encourage girls to work in the informal sector, the impact of work on their welfare, and the effectiveness of government policies in addressing this problem. Using a qualitative approach and case study method at the Kramat Jati Wholesale Market, Jakarta, this study collected data through field observations, in-depth interviews with girl workers and their families, and policy analysis related to child labor in Indonesia. The study results indicate that family poverty, lack of access to education, and social norms normalizing child labor are the main factors that encourage them to work. These girl workers are socially excluded in various forms. The lack of inclusive education services for children of workers is intertwined with them losing access to other rights such as poor health conditions, lack of safe places, vulnerable families due to crime and  unregistered marriages, dropping out of school, and ending child marriage. Educational inequality perpetuates child labor and creates a cycle of poverty that is passed down to the next generation.

Abstract

This study explored the potential effects of Justin Trudeau's planned resignation on immigration reforms, U.S.-Canada trade relations, and geostrategic dynamics in North America under Donald Trump's presidency. Using a historical research approach, the study examined the political developments and policy changes during Trudeau's time in office, considering their future implications following his expected departure. The study utilized the Realist Theory of International Relations, focusing on the role of national interest and power in shaping relationships between states. The findings suggest that Trudeau’s resignation could lead to significant shifts in Canada’s immigration policies, potentially resulting in more restrictive measures aligned with conservative ideologies. In terms of trade, U.S.-Canada relations, already complicated by Trump’s protectionist stance and the USMCA renegotiation, may face greater instability, impacting the region’s economic stability. Furthermore, Trudeau’s departure could alter the geostrategic balance in North America, diminishing Canada’s diplomatic influence in trilateral negotiations with the U.S. and Mexico, as well as its position in global affairs. The study concluded that Trudeau's resignation would create a leadership gap that could challenge Canada’s policy continuity and international relationships. The study recommended among others that Canada should diversify its trade relationships to lessen dependence on the U.S., focusing on building stronger connections with emerging economies in Asia, the EU, and Africa.

Abstract

Risk-Based Business Licensing isa response to the JobCreation Law aimed at improving the investment ecosystem, business activities, and the Ease of Doing Business (EoDB) in Indonesia. This study analyzes theimplementation of risk-based business licensing policies in Ogan Ilir Regency using Charles O. Jones' implementation theory, which includes three main aspects: organization, interpretation, and application. The research method usedis descriptive qualitative through interviews, observations, and documentation. The analysis results show that the implementation of risk-based business licensing policies in Ogan Ilir Regency has been running well, as reflected in the adjustment of the organizational structure and the formation of a licensing technical team, adequatehuman resources in the licensing service sector, adequate internet networks and facilities, and good coordination between DPMPTSP in Ogan Ilir Regency and the licensing technical team. However, several challenges were identified,including budget limitations whichhave implications for the lack of policy socialization and participation in face-to-face OSS RBA training, insufficientpublicunderstanding of theOSS RBA system itself,and supporting regulations for risk-based business licensing that are still in the drafting stageand havenot yetbeen ratified.Itis necessaryfor theRegional Government to strengthen the capacity and competence of human resources, encourage the availability of budget allocations for licensing services, encourage OPD participation to accelerate the preparation of supporting regulations for risk-based licensing, and expand access to assistance by utilizing digital services through simple video tutorials for business actors.It is recommended that future research conduct a comparative study between regions to analyze patterns and best practices in the implementation of risk-based business licensing policies in Indonesia, particularly in areas facing similar challenges. Additionally, future studies should adopt a quantitative approach to measure the policy's impact on business actors.
