Abstract

This article examines how digital skills and virtual employment are reshaping labor migration patterns, with a focus on Uzbekistan’s evolving experience within Central Asia. Drawing on comparative legal analysis and secondary statistical sources, the study traces the shift from predominantly physical mobility toward digitally mediated cross-border work facilitated by online labor platforms. Evidence from the Online Labour Index shows that demand for virtual labor is concentrated in high-income economies, while supply is generated largely by developing countries, reflecting an emerging digital division of labor. The article analyzes the implications of artificial intelligence, automation, and telework for migrant workers and assesses Uzbekistan’s policy responses, including vocational upskilling, WorldSkills standards, and pre-migration preparation. The findings suggest that targeted digital skills development, streamlined recognition of qualifications, and alignment of training with global standards can enhance the competitiveness of Uzbek workers in remote labor markets. The article contribute for recognizing “virtual labor migration” within international legal frameworks and integrating remote-work preparation into national workforce strategies to promote inclusive growth and social resilience.

Abstract

 The right to education for undocumented children of Indonesian migrant workers (IMWs) in East Malaysia remains inadequately protected due to administrative exclusion, legal uncertainty, geographic remoteness, and fragmented cross-border governance. This study analyzes how Indonesia’s multi-track diplomacy operates to protect the right to education for undocumented children of IMWs in East Malaysia.  This research employs a qualitative explanatory design based on semi-structured interviews supported by document analysis. Data were analyzed through thematic coding using NVivo, with the application of triangulation and participant verification to enhance credibility. Findings indicate that educational protection functions through coordination across four main Tracks. Tracks One provides policy authority, diplomatic legitimacy, schools, documentation facilitation, and scholarships. Tracks Two translates formal commitments into operational support, particularly regarding student repatriation and placement. Tracks Four maintains access in remote plantation areas through mentor teachers who fill teaching vacancies. Tracks Five strengthens the system through temporary teaching, training, and the production of policy-relevant knowledge. This study makes a theoretical contribution by expanding multi-track diplomacy beyond conflict resolution and demonstrating its value as an analytical lens for cross-border social governance. It further demonstrates that effective coordination depends on functional complementarity, negotiated interdependence, and adaptive responses to structural constraints.

Abstract

This study analyzes the institutional dynamics of Cimahi Techno Park (CTP), a local government-owned Science and Technology Park (STP) currently undergoing a transformation toward a hybrid organizational model. The study aims to identify these gaps by analyzing institutional dynamics, characteristics of hybridity, and barriers to CTP’s transformation.  The research method employed is based on a qualitative case study, in which data were collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis to examine competing public-private logics, collaborative governance practices, and institutional barriers. The findings showed that although the CTP has developed early forms of hybridity through collaborative networks involving the government, academics, industry, and the creative community, its operational autonomy remains constrained by structural rigidity, limited financial autonomy, and gaps in human resource capacity. This study demonstrates that transforming the CTP from a public agency into STP a hybrid organization requires more than just administrative reforms; it necessitates broader institutional changes in governance, capacity, and policy alignment. The research has formulated a transformation model toward a Regional Public Service Agency that emphasizes human resource development, financial autonomy, and the institutionalization of collaborative governance mechanisms. This study contributes to the development of the concept of hybrid organizations as a public sector innovation in developing countries.

Abstract

Persistent allegations of electoral fraud after Indonesia’s 2019 and 2024 elections show that legitimacy is shaped not only by legal validation but also by competing public narratives. Although both elections were certified, post-election discourse remained marked by polarization, distrust, and manipulation claims. Existing studies have examined fraud perceptions, populism, misinformation, and digital politics separately, yet research on how fraud narratives evolved across consecutive Indonesian elections remains limited. This study addresses this gap by analyzing how populist fraud narratives were produced and circulated in both elections, and how survey institutions contributed to electoral legitimacy. Using qualitative descriptive content analysis based on library and document-based research, this study synthesizes academic literature, official documents, media reports, and survey publications. The findings reveal a transformation in fraud narratives. In 2019, they were explicit, personalized, and elite-centered, articulated by senior political and religious actors, and linked to offline mobilization. In 2024, they became decentralized, implicit, and digitally networked, circulating through short-form content, partisan online communities, and buzzer-like amplification. Across both elections, survey institutions functioned as epistemic actors by measuring public perceptions and countering claims of widespread illegitimacy, while exposing partisan asymmetries and winner’s bias. This article contributes to debates on digital populism, electoral integrity, and democratic legitimacy by showing how election legitimacy is contested across legal-institutional, moral-populist, and empirical-survey arenas.
