Abstract

In this era of globalization, which is very competitive in various fields of life, vocational education is crucial, considering the increasing demands for human resources in the labor market for middle-class workers. This study aims to determine the implementation of human resource development carried out by schools and to produce a draft of a human resource development model based on the Knowledge-Based View. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method. This method is used to obtain needs analysis data in designing a human resource development model in the field of vocational education. The findings of this study indicate that the development of educational resources, more specifically human resources in the education and training elements of the school, has been planned. In addition, it was also found that the development of educational resources, more specifically human resources in the career development element, has several requirements, including work period, credit points, work performance, education and training, and staff development. This study concludes that human resource development in State Vocational High Schools in Manado City has been implemented from planning to implementation.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of tourism development policies in North Minahasa Regency, focusing on the Tunan Waterfall tourist site. The research is motivated by the suboptimal management of the region's natural tourism potential, particularly at Tunan Waterfall, despite the issuance of Regional Regulation No. 4 of 2023 concerning the Master Plan for Tourism Development (RIPPARKAB) for 2023–2025. This study employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive method, using observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. The findings indicate that the implementation of tourism development policies still faces various challenges in terms of safety, comfort, attractiveness, accessibility, environmental sustainability, and contribution to local revenue (PAD). Determinant factors influencing implementation include policy communication, resource availability, implementers' disposition, and bureaucratic structure (Edward III), as well as policy objectives, implementing agency characteristics, and socio-political conditions (Van Meter & Van Horn). Furthermore, a gap is identified between policy content and implementation context, as analysed using Grindle’s theory. The study recommends cross-sector synergy, institutional capacity building, and community participation to develop tourist destinations that are safe, comfortable, attractive, accessible, and sustainable.

Abstract

This study evaluates the implementation of stunting prevention and reduction policies in Wori District, North Minahasa Regency, based on Regent Regulation Number 23 of 2023 concerning Integrated Stunting Prevention and Reduction. Although North Minahasa Regency shows a downward trend in stunting rates, Wori District recorded an increase in cases of up to 43 children in February 2025. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach with a phenomenological method, involving observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data analysis followed the Miles and Huberman (2014) model through the stages of collection, condensation, presentation, and conclusion, along with verification. The results of the study showed that although the programs (Posyandu, PMT, nutrition education, specific and sensitive interventions, and involvement of Human Development Cadres) had been implemented, their implementation had not been optimal due to limited Village Fund budget, low capacity and number of cadres, socio-cultural barriers, inadequate sanitation infrastructure, and cross-sectoral coordination that was not yet synergistic. Based on the theories of Edward III, Van Meter & Van Horn, and Mazmanian & Sabatier, the determinant factors are mainly located in the context of implementation, such as the capacity of implementers, local political support, and community participation. Recommendations include increasing budget allocation, strengthening human resource capacity (continuous training for nutrition cadres and KPM), and strengthening cross-sector convergence coordination so that specific and sensitive interventions run in an integrated manner.

Abstract

The rapid development of industry and technology demands that vocational education adapt to produce graduates ready to compete in the job market. This study aims to analyze the role of the school principal in optimizing Teaching Factory (TeFa) services in Vocational High Schools (SMK), with a case study at SMK Negeri 3 Tondano. TeFa is a learning model based on real production activities that integrates education with the needs of the business and industrial sectors (DUDI). This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis involving several informants, including the principal, teachers, students, and industry partners. The findings show that the school principal has a strategic role in the planning, organizing, implementation, and evaluation of TeFa services. The principal exhibits visionary and transformational leadership that encourages innovation, collaboration with industry, and the strengthening of a productive work culture and entrepreneurial spirit within the school environment. Adapting the TeFa implementation based on the characteristics of each department is also a key strategy to enhance the relevance and effectiveness of learning. The principal also succeeded in overcoming challenges such as limited facilities, rigid regulations, and a lack of industry-experienced teachers through collaborative approaches and policy advocacy. Various innovative initiatives, such as digital management systems, the implementation of a multi-stakeholder engagement model, and the integration of curriculum with real project-based learning, demonstrate that school leadership is a determining factor in the successful implementation of TeFa. These findings highlight the essential role of school principals as change agents in creating adaptive, excellent, and competitive vocational education.

Abstract

Medical education in Indonesia has experienced rapid development, marked by an increasing number of private universities opening medical study programs. However, this dynamic is inseparable from the influence of national policies and higher education politics. This article analyzes how national policies and political dynamics affect the existence, quality, and governance of medical education in private universities. The approach used is policy document analysis and literature review. The results show that government regulations, particularly Law No. 20/2003, Law No. 12/2012, and Minister of Health Regulation No. 24/2020, play a significant role in the establishment and development of medical study programs. However, political pressure, institutional competition, and higher education liberalization pose challenges to graduate quality and equitable access. Recommendations include enforcing quality standards, strengthening the accreditation system, and collaborative governance between the state and private institutions.

Abstract

Effective and efficient business licensing services are a primary requirement for improving the investment climate, especially for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). The Indonesian government has implemented the Online Single Submission – Risk Based Approach (OSS-RBA) as a public service digitalization strategy aimed at simplifying the licensing process and enhancing legal certainty. However, the implementation of this system at the local level, including at the Investment and Integrated One-Stop Service Office (DPMPTSP) of North Minahasa Regency, faces several challenges such as low public understanding, limited infrastructure, and inadequate human resource competencies. This study aims to analyze the management of OSS-RBA in MSME licensing services at the DPMPTSP of North Minahasa Regency and to identify its supporting and inhibiting factors. The method used is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Informants consist of DPMPTSP officials and business actors who are OSS-RBA users. The results indicate that although OSS-RBA provides convenience for MSMEs in obtaining a Business Identification Number (NIB) and shortens service time, its implementation is not yet optimal. Inhibiting factors include insufficient socialization, limited supporting facilities such as internet connectivity, and minimal personnel training. Meanwhile, supporting factors are the existence of clear regulations and the local government’s bureaucratic reform spirit. The discussion emphasizes the importance of system integration, capacity building for human resources, and the necessity of continuous monitoring and evaluation of the OSS-RBA system. In conclusion, OSS-RBA management at DPMPTSP North Minahasa is in a developmental stage but requires improvements in technical, structural, and HR aspects to become an effective instrument in public service and MSME empowerment.

Abstract

This study aims to examine and analyze the implementation of public order policy by the Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP) in Minahasa Regency, as well as to identify the factors that hinder its execution. Public order is a crucial aspect in creating a safe, orderly, and comfortable social environment. However, in practice, Satpol PP in Minahasa Regency faces various structural and functional challenges that affect the effectiveness of the policy implementation. This research employs a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including in-depth interviews, direct observation, and document analysis. Data analysis was conducted using the interactive model proposed by Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, which involves data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of public order policy has been carried out through several key activities such as early detection and prevention, community education and outreach, patrols, security, enforcement, and inter-agency coordination. Nevertheless, the implementation remains suboptimal due to several inhibiting factors, including the absence of a specific regional regulation (Perda) on public order, limited human resources and operational facilities, weak coordination among institutions, and low public awareness of existing regulations. The study concludes that the success of policy implementation heavily depends on the clarity of local regulations, budgetary support, and community participation. Strategic efforts are needed from the local government to strengthen the legal and institutional framework to enhance the effectiveness of public order policy enforcement in Minahasa Regency.

Abstract

The increasing burden of cataract-induced blindness in Indonesia demands competent surgical responses, particularly through the phacoemulsification technique—a minimally invasive surgical procedure globally recognized as the gold standard. However, structural limitations in training policies, unequal access to resources, and political dynamics impede the readiness of new ophthalmologists in mastering this technique. This study explores the systemic, policy, and political contexts underlying phacoemulsification training in Indonesia. Using a qualitative descriptive approach supplemented by a literature review, this research analyzes dimensions of curriculum development, accreditation standards, infrastructure distribution, stakeholder politics, and professional ethics compliance. Findings indicate that to ensure equitable surgical competence among graduates of ophthalmology specialist programs, policymakers need to integrate national regulations with international standards, decentralize access to quality training, and enforce ethical governance across all medical education institutions.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of the Regional Government Information System (SIPD) implementation in the General Affairs Section of the Regional Secretariat of North Minahasa Regency. SIPD, mandated by Permendagri No. 70/2019, aims to improve transparency, accountability, and efficiency in regional governance by integrating planning, budgeting, execution, reporting, and asset management processes. The primary objectives are to assess the operational performance of SIPD, identify factors inhibiting its effectiveness, and propose strategic recommendations for improvement. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with key informants, including the Regional Secretary, Head of the General Affairs Section, Budget Treasurer, and SIPD Operators, direct observation of SIPD usage, and document analysis of SIPD reports and related regulatory frameworks. Data were analyzed following Miles and Huberman’s interactive model, encompassing data reduction, presentation, and verification through triangulation. Findings reveal that SIPD has substantially streamlined administrative and financial processes, enabling real-time access to budgetary data, reducing manual paperwork, and enhancing decision-making. However, constraints such as limited human resource capacity, intermittent infrastructural support, incomplete data integration, and resistance to change hinder optimal performance. Challenges arise from inadequate training, inconsistent internet connectivity, and unclear standard operating procedures. The study concludes that while SIPD holds significant potential for modernizing local governance, its efficacy is undermined by technical, human, and organizational barriers. Recommendations include targeted capacity-building programs, infrastructural upgrades, refinement of data protocols, and stronger leadership commitment to foster a culture of digital transformation. These measures are expected to enhance SIPD’s functionality, thereby elevating public service quality and accountability in North Minahasa Regency.

Abstract

This study evaluates the implementation of the Funeral Assistance Social Aid policy enacted the regional government has an imperative to provide social protection for underprivileged communities experiencing the bereavement of a family member. Through North Minahasa Regent Regulation No. 27 of 2021, the North Minahasa Regency Government established a funeral assistance grant of IDR 3,000,000 to alleviate the financial burden on surviving family members. However, in its implementation, this policy has encountered several administrative, technical, and geographical challenges that affect the effectiveness of benefit distribution. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the implementation of the Funeral Assistance Social Aid policy and to identify the obstacles arising during its delivery, as well as to offer policy recommendations for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of aid distribution. This research employs a qualitative approach, collecting data through in-depth interviews, observation, and document review. Informants include officials from the Social Service Office, village administrators, community leaders, and aid recipients. Data analysis follows the Miles and Huberman model, encompassing data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Findings indicate that the funeral assistance program is considered quite effective by the community in easing the economic burden during mourning. Distribution processes are relatively swift (3–7 working days) when documentation is complete, and recipients report substantial benefit from the aid. Nevertheless, challenges persist, including incomplete documentation, limited internet connectivity in remote areas, inter-agency coordination delays, and insufficient public outreach. Despite these constraints, the Social Service Office has introduced innovations such as training for village officers and using the OSS-Duka system to expedite data verification. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the Funeral Assistance Social Aid policy has positively impacted recipients. However, its effectiveness can be further enhanced through simplification of procedures, capacity building at the village level, and improvements to the digital service system. The recommendations arising from this study are expected to strengthen a more responsive and equitable social protection framework in North Minahasa Regency.
