Abstract

This study is motivated by the condition of the Tanjung Pinggir Final Disposal Site (TPA) in Kota Pematangsiantar, which has experienced overcapacity and still applies an open dumping system, resulting in air, water, and soil pollution as well as public health disturbances. The research aims to analyze the implementation of strategies carried out by the Dinas Lingkungan Hidup Kota Pematangsiantar in addressing environmental pollution impacts. The study is grounded in the implementation theory of Van Meter and Van Horn, environmental management strategy theory, environmental pollution theory, and regional autonomy theory. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Informants included the Head of the Environmental Agency, landfill field officers, and local community representatives. The findings indicate that technical, operational, educational, and collaborative strategies have been implemented, including waste compaction, leachate control, environmental monitoring, and 3R socialization. However, the implementation remains suboptimal due to budget limitations, inadequate facilities, landfill capacity constraints, and low community participation. It is concluded that although the strategies have been implemented, their effectiveness requires further strengthening through improved resources and more sustainable waste management systems.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of public communication in improving the quality of public services in Damar Sari Village, Tebing Tinggi City. Public communication is a crucial aspect of public service delivery because it influences information delivery, transparency, and the relationship between the government and the public. Effective public services require clear, open, and responsive communication so that the public can understand service procedures and effectively express their needs and complaints.The research method used in this study was a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data collection techniques were conducted through observation, interviews, and documentation of village officials and the community as service users. Data analysis was conducted by collecting, reducing, presenting data, and drawing conclusions from the research results obtained in the field.The research results indicate that public communication in Damar Sari Village plays a crucial role in improving the quality of public services. This is evident in the delivery of service information through various media, direct interaction between village officials and the public, and efforts to ensure transparency in the service process. However, several obstacles remain, such as limited communication facilities, inadequate use of digital media, and a lack of understanding of service procedures among the public.Based on these research results, it can be concluded that effective public communication can support the improvement of the quality of public services in Damar Sari Village. Therefore, improvements in the use of communication media, the provision of clearer and more accessible information, and improvements in the communication skills of officials are needed to optimize public services.

Abstract

Electronic-based public services are a government innovation aimed at improving service quality to be faster, more efficient, transparent, and easily accessible. The Department of Population and Civil Registration of Serdang Bedagai Regency has implemented this system in birth certificate services. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the policy and the factors influencing it. This research uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, then analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing techniques.The results show that the implementation of electronic-based public service policies has generally run quite well and has improved service efficiency. Based on George C. Edwards III’s theory, the success of implementation is influenced by communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. However, there are still obstacles such as limited infrastructure and low digital literacy among the community. In conclusion, the implementation of this policy is fairly effective, but improvements are needed in socialization, human resource capacity, and access to technology to optimize public services.

Abstract

The development of information technology encourages governments to transform public services through the implementation of digital-based services as an effort to realize good governance. The digitalization of public services at the sub-district level is expected to enhance transparency, accountability, and provide wider opportunities for public participation. However, the utilization of digital-based public services in Medan Timur Sub-district has not been fully optimal, as some members of the community still prefer face-to-face services rather than using the digital platforms that have been provided. This study aims to analyze the forms of community participation in utilizing digital-based public services in Medan Timur Sub-district and to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors of such participation in realizing good governance. This research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews with key informants, main informants, and additional informants, supported by documentation studies. The data analysis was conducted through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing based on the Miles and Huberman model. The results of the study indicate that community participation in digital-based public services in Medan Timur Sub-district is still at a consultative level, which is reflected through the utilization of services such as complaint platforms, access to administrative information, and the Digital Population Identity (IKD) service. Digital services have also supported transparency through information openness and strengthened accountability through digital recording systems and documented complaint mechanisms. The supporting factors of community participation include the availability of digital platforms, the responsiveness of government officials, and documented service systems. Meanwhile, the inhibiting factors include low levels of digital literacy among some members of the community, limited access to devices and internet connectivity, and the community’s preference for direct face-to-face services.

Abstract

The development of the digital era requires government institutions to adapt their bureaucratic work systems and public services to become more effective and responsive. However, the adaptation process still faces several challenges, such as limited technological competence, conventional bureaucratic work patterns, and the readiness of civil servants to face change. Therefore, an adaptive governance approach is needed to encourage flexibility and the ability of organizations to adjust to environmental dynamics. This study aims to analyze the implementation of adaptive governance in improving the performance of civil servants at the Medan Timur Sub-district Office and to identify supporting and inhibiting factors. This research uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach through interviews and documentation studies. Data analysis applies the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results show that the implementation of adaptive governance is reflected in collaboration among employees, flexibility in work procedures, improvement of civil servants’ capacity in the use of technology, and the role of transformational leadership in encouraging openness to change. These efforts contribute to improving work effectiveness and the quality of public services. However, several obstacles remain, including limited digital skills, lack of technical training, and work habits that are still oriented toward manual systems. The study concludes that adaptive governance plays an important role in improving civil servant performance and supporting organizational adaptation to the digital transformation of public services.

Abstract

Forest resource management in Indonesia is an important part of sustainable development policy aimed at balancing economic growth, environmental sustainability, and community welfare. One form of forest utilization is through the Industrial Plantation Forest (HTI) scheme. However, in practice, HTI activities often generate various environmental and social impacts on communities living around forest areas. PT Toba Pulp Lestari is one of the companies managing Industrial Plantation Forests in Humbang Hasundutan Regency, including within the customary territory of the Pargamanan Bintang Maria Indigenous community in Parlilitan District. This study aims to analyze the environmental impacts of the company’s operations and to understand community perceptions of the environmental changes that have occurred. This study employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews with key informants, including the leader of the indigenous community, community members directly affected by the company’s activities, and additional informants such as village government representatives and the company. Documentation studies were also used to support the data. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study indicate that the operations of PT Toba Pulp Lestari have caused various environmental changes, including a reduction in natural forest cover, decreased water availability, and disruption of ecosystem balance, which has affected the productivity of benzoin forests as the main livelihood source of the community. In addition, the community has experienced social and economic changes, such as shifts in livelihood patterns, reduced agricultural and forest yields, and differing views within the community regarding the presence of the company. Although the company provides employment opportunities for some community members, the economic benefits remain limited. The conclusion of this study shows that the operational activities of PT Toba Pulp Lestari have significant impacts on the environment and the livelihoods of the Pargamanan Bintang Maria Indigenous community. Therefore, more sustainable forest management is required by considering environmental conservation, protection of indigenous peoples’ rights, and stronger government supervision to create a balance between economic development and environmental sustainability

Abstract

This study examines the influence of Financial Literacy, Financial Well-Being, and Financial Attitude on Retirement Planning, with Herding Behavior as a moderating variable. This study aims to explore how personal financial factors influence the readiness of construction workers in planning for retirement in Pekanbaru City, Indonesia. Using a quantitative approach, data was collected through an online survey from 200 respondents who were employees of four construction service companies, namely PT Buana Global Mandiri, PT Hutama Karya Infrastruktur, PT Wira Agung, and PT Andalan Tunas Mandiri. Data analysis was conducted using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results show that Financial Literacy, Financial Well-Being, and Financial Attitude have a positive and significant influence on Retirement Planning. In addition, Herding Behavior is proven to moderate the relationship between Financial Literacy and Retirement Planning. This study highlights the importance of improving financial knowledge and managing financial attitudes for construction workers to be better prepared for retirement. These results also provide insights for construction companies, financial planners, and policymakers to design strategies that encourage better retirement planning in the construction sector.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of ownership structure and board characteristics on dividend policy in companies listed in the Kompas 100 index during the 2018–2024 period with free cash flow and investment efficiency as moderation variable. The findings reveal that family ownership, institutional domestic ownership, ownership concentration, foreign ownership, managerial ownership, and the presence of independent commissioners have no significant impact on dividend policy. Conversely, board size and CEO duality show a positive and significant influence, while the presence of female directors has a negative and significant impact on dividend policy. Furthermore, the three tested moderating variables free cash flow and investment efficiency did not show significant effects in moderating the relationships between ownership structure or board characteristics and dividend policy.This study is limited by its long observation period, which spans pre-COVID, during the pandemic, and post-COVID recovery phases, leading to diverse dividend distribution patterns. Additionally, the use of moderating variables is still limited. Future researchers are encouraged to examine a more diverse set of companies and explore additional moderating variables to provide deeper insights. The managerial implications highlight the importance of board characteristics in maintaining long-term strategic stability while emphasizing the need for transparent and accountable reporting. For investors, the result can be used as a consideration in evaluating the company’s performance by paying attention to its development so that it grows into an increasingly larger company

Abstract

Kebakaran Hutan dan Lahan (Karhutla) merupakan masalah lingkungan dan sosial yang berulang di Kabupaten Kampar, Provinsi Riau, yang menyebabkan kerugian ekologis, ekonomi, dan kesehatan yang signifikan, seperti Infeksi Saluran Pernapasan Akut (ISR). Meskipun Badan Penanggulangan Bencana Daerah (BPBD) Kabupaten Kampar telah mengkoordinasikan berbagai pemangku kepentingan untuk menerapkan langkah-langkah penanggulangan, kejadian bencana ini yang berulang setiap tahun menunjukkan adanya celah atau kelemahan dalam strategi yang diterapkan. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji dan menganalisis implementasi strategi pengelolaan Karhutla oleh BPBD Kabupaten Kampar, mengidentifikasi faktor internal dan eksternal yang berperan sebagai hambatan dan pendukung, serta merumuskan strategi alternatif yang berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif-analitis. Pengumpulan data primer dilakukan melalui wawancara mendalam dengan informan kunci dari BPBD, Tentara Nasional Indonesia/Kepolisian Nasional Indonesia (TNI/Polri), instansi pemerintah terkait, dan Komunitas Peduli Kebakaran (MPA), sedangkan data sekunder diperoleh dari dokumen kebijakan, laporan, dan statistik. Kerangka teoritis yang diterapkan menggabungkan Manajemen Strategis Fred R. David, Siklus Manajemen Bencana W. Nick Carter, dan Tata Kelola Kolaboratif Ansell dan Gash. Kebaruan penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan model strategi yang lebih tangkas dalam menghadapi ketidakpastian iklim ekstrem dengan menyelaraskan teknologi pemantauan canggih (seperti satelit dan aplikasi deteksi dini) dengan pendekatan partisipatif berdasarkan kearifan lokal. Pada akhirnya, hasil evaluasi ini dimaksudkan untuk menyempurnakan prosedur operasional BPBD dan memperkuat sinergi lintas sektor untuk mewujudkan Kabupaten Kampar yang tangguh terhadap bencana asap.
