Abstract

Rural digital inclusion is a concept that prioritizes the utilization of information technology transformation from analog to digital systems. It is an innovation that enhances inclusivity to achieve equality in quality of life as well as access to information and administrative services in rural areas. This study aims to examine the factors contributing to the gap, bridge development efforts, and identify the challenges faced in digital development by village governments through e-government in Lembang Bo’ne Buntu Sisong, Makale Selatan District, Tana Toraja Regency. The results show that the digital gap is caused by limited infrastructure, lack of access skills, and unavailability of budget. Digital inclusion initiated by the lembang government serves as a solution to anticipate conditions of information marginalization by developing a village/lembang website that can effectively and efficiently fulfill the community’s right to information and public services. The challenges faced in developing digitalization in the lembang government or e-government include: (1) leadership challenges related to policy support and regulations for the implementation of e-government; (2) cultural challenges among villagers in accepting the transformation of information access and services from analog to digital, where available access has not been used participatively and awareness of its utilization is still low; and (3) governance challenges, as the transformation of information and administrative services in an e-government system requires competence support from village government officials. The findings of this study are expected to provide insights into implementing digital inclusion to minimize the emergence of marginalized groups due to the digital divide.

Abstract

This article critically analyzes the role of podcasts as a channel for freedom of expression in shaping the discourse of the ideal Indonesian leader thru Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) based on Fairclough's model. By examining concrete cases such as KPU RI Episode 9: Ideal Leaders in the Eyes of Students (a platform for young formal and intellectual stakeholders), Podcast: Jokowi's Rants and Rocky Gerung's Ideal State Leader Version (comparing official narratives vs. sharp criticism), Episode 31: Putu Yoga: KMHDI Chairman - Ideal Political Party? (non-governmental organization perspective), as well as Applying Leadership Science from Mr. Jonan. Leaders Must Be Visible. The Leader Must Be Seen (visible leadership implementation): Research reveals how narrative framing, satirical humor, ideological rhetoric, and contrasting comparisons are used to construct an ideal leadership image while simultaneously challenging power. The findings indicate that podcasts expand the deliberative space thru long-form dialog and social media integration, enabling social criticism as a control mechanism. For example, discussions by the General Election Commission of the Republic of Indonesia (KPU RI) sparked public debate about election integrity, while Rocky Gerung's criticism of Jokowi's "interference" went viral on X and mobilized young opinion. However, this freedom is limited by elite dominance (the majority of hosts are Jakarta-centric), commercialization (sponsors influence framing), algorithmic polarization, and legal repression (the ITE Law threatens independent hosts). The Jonan case underscores the importance of visible and accountable leadership, while Putu Yoga expands the discourse to an ideal Hindu-based political party and democracy. The article concludes that podcasts are an ambivalent channel for freedom of expression: empowering young voices, activists, and intellectuals while also being vulnerable to power manipulation. Its effectiveness depends on digital literacy, editorial independence, and regulatory reform for podcasts to truly become a platform for the people, featuring ideal Indonesian leaders who are ethical, inclusive, and responsive.

Abstract

The development of the broadcasting industry in Indonesia has created challenges arising from the tension between media commercial interests and moral responsibility in delivering information to the public. Ethical violations such as privacy exploitation, content sensationalism, and the neglect of child protection indicate that formal regulations alone are insufficient to ensure ethical broadcasting practices. This study aims to analyze the synchronization between the Broadcasting Code of Conduct and Broadcast Program Standards (P3SPS) and the principles of Islamic communication ethics, particularly the concept of Al-Qaulan, as a moral filter within broadcasting regulations in Indonesia. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method with a library research approach. Data were collected from Law Number 32 of 2002 concerning Broadcasting, P3SPS, Qur’anic verses related to communication, and relevant academic literature. The findings reveal that P3SPS provisions concerning privacy protection, politeness, child protection, and information accuracy are substantially aligned with the principles of Al-Qaulan, namely Qaulan Sadidan, Balighan, Ma’rufan, Kariman, Layyinan, Maysuran, and Tsaqilan. The study concludes that the internalization of the Seven Qaulan principles can strengthen the effectiveness of broadcasting regulations by fostering moral awareness among media practitioners, thereby creating a more ethical, humane, and socially beneficial broadcasting ecosystem.

Abstract

parents. His arrival in Wajo was motivated by the numerous accounts he heard from pilgrims originating from Wajo, which described the religious life of the community as deeply concerning, marked by widespread immoral behavior and polytheistic practices. Therefore, this study aims to examine the extent to which his da‘wah movement was able to bring about significant changes in the religious life of the people of Wajo. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through direct observation, interviews, as well as literature and document analysis. The findings indicate that the da‘wah movement of AGH. Muhammad As’ad took three forms: oral, written, and practical actions. The factors supporting the success of his da‘wah include his ability to observe the social environment, adapt to the community, and conduct systematic guidance and teaching. The conclusion of this study reveals that the success of AGH. Muhammad As’ad’s da‘wah movement in Wajo Regency was inseparable from his skill in understanding the context of da‘wah and his ability to effectively present religious messages, enabling them to be well received by the community. The implication of this study is that a da‘i must be capable of adapting to the environment, as well as adjusting the content and methods of da‘wah, particularly in the current era of rapid development in communication and information technology.

Abstract

This study examines the controversy surrounding Indonesia's Free Nutritious Meal Program (Makan Bergizi Gratis/MBG) from a risk communication perspective. Normatively, MBG is presented as a strategic intervention to reduce stunting and improve human capital. In practice, however, the program has become a contested public narrative shaped by food safety concerns, fiscal scale, media framing, and institutional trust. Using qualitative conceptual analysis based on crisis communication, risk communication, and risk society literature, this article explains the gap between objective risk and perceived risk in public responses to MBG. The findings show that public anxiety is not caused solely by operational problems, but by the failure of policy communication to acknowledge uncertainty transparently and consistently. Statistical claims on stunting reduction do not automatically produce legitimacy because citizens evaluate risk through emotion, social value, experience, and trust. MBG therefore shifts from a technical nutrition policy into a narrative crisis of state credibility.

Abstract

The rapid growth of digital communication has made social media a central arena for student interaction, learning, and self-expression. At the same time, social media exposes students to misinformation, weak verification practices, privacy risks, cyberbullying, and unreflective participation in digital culture. This article examines media literacy as a twenty-first-century skill for developing wise social media behavior among students of Islamic higher education, particularly within the academic context of IAIN Parepare. Using qualitative library research, this study synthesizes scholarly works on media literacy, digital citizenship, digital ethics, and social media use in higher education. The findings show that media literacy strengthens critical thinking, ethical communication, collaborative participation, and creative content production. Wise social media use is therefore not merely a matter of limiting screen time but a multidimensional capacity to access, analyze, evaluate, and produce digital messages responsibly. The article recommends integrating media literacy into learning, student activities, and campus-based digital culture.

Abstract

The rapid growth of digital media in the big data era has transformed student communication, learning, and social interaction. Platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, Google Classroom, and Zoom offer opportunities for creativity, academic collaboration, and flexible learning. However, their use also produces extensive digital traces that may expose users to data misuse, privacy breaches, misinformation, and weak account security. This article examines digital media utilization among students of IAIN Parepare by focusing on personal data privacy and digital literacy. Using qualitative library research, this study synthesizes literature on digital literacy, communication privacy management, new media, and big data. The findings show that students benefit from digital platforms but often lack adequate awareness of how personal data are collected, processed, and monetized. Digital literacy must therefore include critical information skills, privacy awareness, cybersecurity habits, and ethical communication. Strengthening institutional digital literacy programs is essential to build a safer, critical, and responsible academic digital culture.

Abstract

Animal health service programs require communication that can reach livestock farmers, clarify service procedures, and encourage local participation. This study analyzes the communication strategies used by the Food Security and Agriculture Office of Bone Bolango Regency in socializing animal health services. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with informants selected purposively according to their relevance to the research focus. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then interpreted using a development communication perspective. The findings identify three main strategies. The media-based strategy uses Facebook, WhatsApp, and billboards to expand information reach. The instructional strategy is implemented through counseling and training activities conducted two to three times a year to strengthen farmers’ understanding. The participatory strategy involves village officials and community members in disseminating information. These strategies operate complementarily by building reach, understanding, and local involvement. The study emphasizes that effective public service communication depends on integrating channels, learning activities, and community networks rather than relying on a single medium.
