Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Field Work Practice (PKL) orientation in enhancing the work competencies of vocational program alumni. PKL orientation is a preparatory phase before students enter the field, covering work-related materials, professional ethics, and guidelines for conducting the practicum. This research utilizes a quantitative methodology including a descriptive-correlational framework. The sample included 39 graduates of vocational programs chosen by purposive sampling. Data were gathered by an online five-point Likert scale questionnaire and evaluated employing validity tests, reliability assessments, descriptive statistics, and Pearson’s correlation. All instrument items were considered valid. Cronbach’s Alpha scores of 0.953 for the internship preparation variable and 0.939 for the work competence variable indicate an exceptionally high degree of dependability. Descriptive analysis indicates that alumni views of internship preparation are categorized as "very good," with an average score of 4.26, while alumni work competencies are also classified as "very good," with an average score of 4.37. The Pearson correlation analysis yielded a correlation value of 0.67 with a significance level of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a robust and substantial association between internship preparation and alumni work abilities. These findings confirm that structured internship preparation that is relevant to the needs of the workforce contributes positively to improving the work competencies of vocational graduates. Vocational education institutions are recommended to continue improving the quality of field work training, particularly in strengthening professional ethics, communication skills, and adaptability in the workplace. Keywords: field work training, work competencies, vocational education, work readiness, alumni perceptions, experiential learning

Abstract

The implementation of regional governance in the era of bureaucratic reform requires governance that is transparent, accountable, effective, efficient, and service-oriented. Public accountability in regional governments is reflected in the Regional Head Accountability Report or Laporan Keterangan Pertanggungjawaban (LKPJ), submitted annually by the regional head to the Regional House of Representatives or Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah (DPRD). The preparation of the LKPJ requires the coordination, synchronization, and harmonization of data from all Regional Apparatus Organizations or Organisasi Perangkat Daerah (OPD) to ensure that the report is objective and in accordance with regulations. This study aims to analyze the role of the Bureau of Government and Regional Autonomy of the Regional Secretariat of West Sumatra Province in facilitating the preparation of LKPJ. This research employed a systematic literature review method, drawing on peer-reviewed academic sources, government regulations, and official policy documents relevant to public administration and regional accountability. The findings show that the bureau plays a strategic role as a coordinator, facilitator, verifier, and quality controller in the preparation of the LKPJ. Its responsibilities include coordinating regional apparatus organizations, verifying performance data, preparing technical guidelines, and harmonizing report substances with regional planning documents and regulations. However, several obstacles remain, including delays in data submission, limited digital information systems, differences in human resource capacity, and inconsistencies in inter-agency data synchronization.

Abstract

Human Resource Management (HRM) theory often assumes that ability-enhancing practices, such as training, and motivation-enhancing practices, such as incentives, improve employee performance by first raising work motivation. This study tests the mediation logic in a deliberately bounded setting: 145 sales associates nested within eight below-target store units of a single Indonesian retail branch. Using reflective Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), this study estimated the direct effects of training and incentives on performance and motivation, and the specific indirect effects transmitted through motivation. Training and incentives showed positive direct effects on both motivation and self-rated performance and jointly explained 65.9% of the variance in motivation and 67.4% of the variance in performance. However, the motivation-to-performance path was positive but not statistically detectable at the 5% level (β = 0.135, p = .099), and the specific indirect effects were positive but had confidence intervals that crossed zero. Therefore, the evidence supports a cautious conclusion of no detectable mediation under these study conditions rather than proof that mediation is absent. The findings are interpreted as a boundary-condition proposition for Ability-Motivation-Opportunity (AMO)-based mediation logic, with explicit caution that motivation was operationalized as Maslowian need satisfaction rather than autonomous versus controlled motivation, performance was self-rated, and respondents were clustered within below-target stores. The practical implications for training transfer, incentive design, and performance management in similar underperforming frontline retail settings are discussed.

Abstract

creative industry and Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are strategic sectors that contribute significantly to national economic development. The development of the creative industry, supported by innovation, creativity, and the use of digital technology, has opened up opportunities for MSMEs to increase their competitiveness and expand their market reach. This study aims to analyze the role of the creative industry in enhancing the competitiveness of local MSMEs, identify supporting and inhibiting factors for their development, and formulate strategies that can encourage sustainable economic growth. The research used a qualitative approach using case studies and literature review. Data were obtained through observation, documentation, and review of various relevant scientific sources. Data were then analyzed using an interactive analysis model that includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that creativity, product innovation, human resource quality, and the use of digital technology are the main factors determining the success of creative industry-based MSMEs. Digitalization through social media and marketplaces has been proven to increase marketing effectiveness, expand market access, and strengthen relationships with consumers. However, MSME development still faces various challenges, such as limited capital, low digital literacy, lack of managerial skills, and high levels of business competition. Therefore, synergy between the government, academia, the business world, and the community is needed to create an ecosystem that supports the development of the creative industry and MSMEs. By strengthening human resource capacity, increasing access to financing, accelerating digital transformation, and fostering sustainable innovation, the creative industry and local MSMEs have the potential to become key pillars in realizing inclusive, competitive, and sustainable economic growth in Indonesia.

Abstract

Indonesia is among the countries with the highest levels of disaster risk in the world, making disaster risk management a crucial aspect of safeguarding community welfare and security. In addition to causing loss of life and damage to infrastructure, disasters frequently disrupt food systems, affecting food availability, access, utilization, and stability. Such disruptions have the potential to increase food insecurity, social vulnerability, and uncertainty in meeting the basic needs of affected communities. This study aims to analyze the role of food security in maintaining community security during disaster situations in Indonesia using a literature review approach. The study adopts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach to examine relevant literature published between 2020 and 2025, including scientific articles, reports from international organizations, government documents, and regulations related to disaster management and food security. The findings indicate that food security plays a strategic role in supporting community security by ensuring the fulfillment of basic needs, reducing the risk of hunger, decreasing social vulnerability, and fostering a sense of security during times of crisis. Food reserves, resilient food systems, and effective logistics management are critical factors in maintaining access to food when disasters disrupt food production and distribution. The study also highlights the importance of strengthening local food production, community food reserves, food diversification, and disaster logistics systems as integral components of disaster risk reduction efforts. Therefore, food security should be integrated into disaster management policies and community resilience-building strategies to enhance the capacity of communities to withstand and recover from disaster impacts. Accordingly, food security should be viewed not only as a development issue but also as a strategic instrument for maintaining community security in disaster-prone areas.

Abstract

Blockchain technology is transforming financial governance and regulatory authority across Africa. However, existing scholarship often treats blockchain either as a developmental tool or as a technical and regulatory problem. This article argues that such approaches overlook the way decentralized digital infrastructures reconfigure the institutional distribution of governance authority. Drawing on a qualitative comparative analysis of blockchain governance frameworks in Nigeria, Kenya, and South Africa between 2017 and 2025, this study examines how African states regulate decentralized financial technologies under conditions of fragmented authority, uneven regulatory capacity, and technological dependency. Using regulatory governance theory and digital sovereignty scholarship, the analysis demonstrates that blockchain governance increasingly operates through polycentric regulatory arrangements involving state institutions, private technological actors, and transnational financial infrastructures. This article advances governance scholarship by conceptualizing digital sovereignty not primarily as territorial control over digital space but as the capacity to exercise infrastructural and regulatory authority within decentralized technological ecosystems.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the management of Interactive Flat Panel (IFP) utilization as a strategy for enhancing the quality of learning in junior high schools. A qualitative approach employing a case study method was adopted at SMPN 1 Bojongsoang and SMPN 1 Dayeuhkolot, both of which have implemented IFP in their learning processes. Data were collected through observations and document analysis. The findings reveal that the management of IFP utilization in both schools has been implemented effectively and has contributed positively to improving learning quality, particularly in increasing student engagement and strengthening students’ digital literacy competencies. The use of IFP has enabled more interactive, student-centered, and technology-enhanced learning experiences. However, the optimization of IFP utilization still requires greater support in terms of infrastructure development and the continuous enhancement of teachers’ digital competencies. Therefore, this study recommends the implementation of sustainable professional development programs and the strengthening of school management practices in managing IFP utilization, thereby maximizing the digitalization of learning and supporting the improvement of educational quality in the twenty-first century.

Abstract

Regional autonomy provides regional governments with the authority to manage governmental affairs and public interests based on the needs and potential of each region. In its implementation, regional governments are required to improve the quality of public services, strengthen regional development, and create effective and efficient governance systems. However, the limitations of financial resources, human resources, and technology often become obstacles in the implementation of regional development. Therefore, cooperation between regional governments and third parties is an important strategy for supporting development programs and improving public services. This study aims to analyze the role of the Bureau of Government and Regional Autonomy in facilitating cooperation between regional governments and third parties in West Sumatra Province. This research uses a qualitative literature study (library research) approach, analyzing laws and regulations, official government documents, and previous scholarly studies on coordination, communication, administrative management, and monitoring and evaluation in regional cooperation activities. The results indicate that the Bureau of Government and Regional Autonomy plays a strategic role as a facilitator, coordinator, and administrator in implementing regional cooperation. The challenges identified include delays in document submission, differences in understanding among institutions, and limited use of information technology. Improvements in coordination systems, administrative management, and information technology are necessary to support optimal regional cooperation.

Abstract

This study examines an election violation case in Bireuen District, where a DPRK candidate involved a village head (keuchik) in campaign activities, raising legal issues regarding the application of Articles 490 and 493 of the Election Law. The research focuses on analyzing judicial considerations and reviewing legal certainty in the decisions of PN Bireuen No. 29/Pid.Sus/2024/PN. Bir and 30/Pid.Sus/2024/PN. Beer. Using a qualitative normative juridical method with case, statute, and conceptual approaches, the primary data consist of court rulings and the Election Law, supported by legal literature. Findings reveal that the judges established both formal and material elements of the offense but imposed relatively light sentences, which undermined consistency and predictability of rulings. Although the legal norms were upheld, the decisions did not fully realize the principle of legal certainty, highlighting the need for harmonization in sentencing patterns to strengthen certainty in electoral law enforcement.

Abstract

The growth of international trade has driven an increase in the use of multimodal transport systems, which allow goods to be shipped via two or more modes of transport under a single contract. In this system, the Multimodal Transport Operator bears full responsibility for the entire shipping process; however, the absence of a uniform international legal regime means that the determination of its libility still depends on the conventions of each mode transport, which have varying standards. This issue becomes even more complex when transportation takes place amid conflict situations, such as in the Strait Hormuz since February 2026. This study employs a normative legal approach to examine the MTO’s liability for loss and damage, as well as the scope of applicability of war risk clauses in such contexts. The findings indicate that the MTO’s liability does not automatically lapse in conflict situations, as liability exemptions still require cumulative proof of force majeure and compliance with due diligence standard. Nor can the war risk clause be applied absolutely, given that its applicability is limited by the contract’s terms, the principle of presumed liability; the presence or absence of negligence, and whether the resulting loss is direct or indirect. The absence of a unified international legal framework remains a serious gap, particulary when losses cannot be localized to a specific segment of transportation.
