Abstract

Background: Rapid population growth and its impact on the environment is a major problem facing the world today, in addition to other issues that also require serious handling and attention. Rapid population growth, especially in cities and urban areas, puts pressure on the fulfillment of population needs that must be provided to ensure the survival of the population. Population growth has an impact on the increasing needs of the population for affordable housing, food needs, transportation. Method: This research uses a qualitative approach based on case studies and literature reviews. This approach involves a critical and in-depth evaluation of previous research, focusing on data collected from various sources related to the impact of population growth on affordable housing, food needs, and sustainable transportation. Findings: The rate of population growth has an impact on environmental sustainability, as a result of the exploitation of natural resources to fulfill various needs, including food needs. Population growth has a linear effect on the demand for food, such as rice and tubers, through the provision of agricultural land. This increase in consumption value occurs in an increasingly limited stock of natural resources, therefore a food fulfillment strategy is needed to achieve national food security and sovereignty, to meet the needs of the population and for food stocks to anticipate undesirable things, such as natural disasters and crop failures. Some of the efforts that can be made are food diversification, intensification, and extensification of agriculture accompanied by the active role of the government in providing infrastructure and supporting policies. Population growth also affects the level of population mobility. Each individual carries out daily activities such as school, work and other activities. This population mobility greatly affects the use of transportation modes to reach certain destinations. The mode of transportation consists of private vehicles and public vehicles. Conclusion: If the use of private vehicles is more than public vehicles, there is the potential for traffic congestion. In addition, the more vehicles used, the greater the carbon emissions produced so that it can cause greenhouse gas effects. One of the efforts that can be made is to implement sustainable transportation management through Transit Oriented Development (TOD) in the provision of transportation modes. TOD is expected to make private vehicle users switch to using public transportation. Novelty/Originality of this study: This research proposes a holistic approach to address the impacts of urban population growth, combining strategies for food diversification, transit-based development, and affordable housing. This framework is expected to be a practical innovation for sustainable urban development in countries with rapid population growth.

Abstract

Background: The research on the role of the World Trade Organization (WTO) in solving the vaccine patent waiver problem related to the 2019 coronavirus disease pandemic will address each issue one by one. Seeing the waiver applications that were made from the end of 2020 to 2022, it is necessary to further study the legal basis and enforcement of patents. Coupled with its relation to public health and equality for the global world to achieve. This study aims to provide an understanding of the role of the WTO in the patent waiver application process and the continuity of current and future patent law enforcement. Method: This research is a normative research with a descriptive method that will explain with the aim of obtaining a description of the events of the patent waiver application. The data that has been obtained will be analysed qualitatively. Conclusions will be obtained from various descriptive data collected from primary and secondary sources that have been analysed. In this regard, this research will be descriptive-analytical in nature which will reveal existing regulations and their implementation. Findings: The results of this study are that the WTO has carried out its roles and functions in accordance with applicable international legal instruments. However, this research emphasises further on the principles of the WTO itself which emphasises justice for developing and less developed countries on the other words called Special and Differential Treatment of Developing Countries. Coupled with the existence of the Doha Declaration which should emphasise that public health should take precedence over intellectual property rights, including patents. Conclusion: Regarding the WTO's role in resolving vaccine patent issues during the COVID-19 pandemic, it can be concluded that the actions taken by the WTO, including its internal bodies and councils, adhere to applicable legal principles and the TRIPs Agreement. However, the decisions must fully align with the WTO's principles, particularly the Special and Differential Treatment of Developing Countries. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study analyzes the role of the WTO in resolving vaccine patent issues during the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on the SDT principles and the Doha Declaration. It reveals the gap between international law and global health needs, offering a framework for balancing intellectual property rights with public health needs.

Abstract

Background: This study investigates the influence of regional minimum wages (RMW), gross domestic product (GDP), and inflation on Indonesia's unemployment rates from 2012 to 2020. Methods: Multiple linear regression analysis examines the relationships between these economic variables. Findings: The findings reveal that RMW significantly negatively affects unemployment rates, indicating that a 1% increase in the minimum wage leads to a 3.951% decrease in unemployment, ceteris paribus. GDP also exhibits a significant negative influence, aligning with Okun's law, which suggests an inverse relationship between economic growth and unemployment. In contrast, inflation does not significantly impact unemployment rates during the studied period. Collectively, the three variables positively and significantly affect Indonesia's unemployment rate, with an adjusted R-squared value of 0.749. This implies that 74.9% of the variation in unemployment can be explained by GDP, inflation, and minimum wages, while other factors account for the remaining 25.1%. Conclusion: The study highlights the complex interplay between these macroeconomic indicators and unemployment, providing insights for policymakers to develop effective strategies for managing employment challenges in Indonesia. Novelty/Originality of this article: This empirical analysis reveals the dynamic relationship between RMW, GDP, inflation, and unemployment in Indonesia (2012—2020). The findings provide an evidence-based basis for formulating more effective and responsive employment and economic policies for Indonesia's labour market conditions.

Abstract

Background: This study examines accountability and transparency in the public procurement process, focusing on Surabaya, the first city to implement e-procurement reform. E-procurement leverages the latest information technology to improve procurement efficiency and transparency. Methods: A descriptive qualitative approach was used, using purposive sampling to gather in-depth insights from critical informants who thoroughly understood the research focus. Data were collected from various entities, including the Surabaya City Electronic Procurement Service (LPSE), the City Procurement Unit (ULP), and related public works and private auction companies. Findings: The implementation of e-procurement in Surabaya has succeeded in building an accountable and transparent system. This system has improved the procurement committee’s ability to justify and report the entire procurement process vertically to higher authorities and horizontally to the public. Despite this progress, some suppliers still engage in fraudulent practices, highlighting the need for continued vigilance and commitment. Conclusions: Although e-procurement has significantly improved accountability and transparency in the procurement process in Surabaya, the committee and suppliers need to uphold strong ethical standards to prevent fraud. The e-procurement system alone is not enough. This system must be supported by solid law enforcement and a commitment to integrity to fully realize its potential in creating a fair procurement environment. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study comprehensively evaluates e-procurement implementation in Surabaya, revealing improvements in accountability and transparency and remaining challenges. The findings offer an applicable model for other cities in Indonesia and developing countries to optimize public e-procurement systems.

Abstract

Background: This article discusses how to overcome silo mentality in bureaucratic reform in an organisation. Method: The qualitative research method is based on case studies and literature reviews. This method involves a critical and in-depth evaluation of previous research to understand sectoral ego and silo mentality in organizational contexts, including government and corporate settings. Findings: There are several things that can be done, one of which is by implementing a better mental revolution based on the values of Pancasila which is the basic ideology of the Indonesian nation. Sectoral ego and silo mentality have the potential to be counterproductive to the strategy of achieving organisational targets and goals. Nonetheless, in the preparation of organisational plans and strategies, it has become customary that organisations set performance targets for each unit derived from the organisation's main targets and objectives. It is an interesting discussion considering that each person or organisational unit always tries and focuses on the respective performance targets that have been set. Conclusion: In some conditions, the choice to focus on their own performance targets is one of the reasons why people exhibit sectoral ego behaviour with silo mentality. By revolutionising the mentality as a strong foundation, it is expected that an organisation can achieve the organisational goals that have been set. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study integrates Pancasila values ​​into strategies to overcome the silo mentality in bureaucratic reform. This innovative approach offers practical solutions to align individual performance with organizational goals, applicable in the Indonesian government and private sectors.

Abstract

Background: The tourism sector is most vulnerable to economic risk due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in Bali. As a continuation of the discourse on a particular digital nomad visa in 2022, the Remote Worker Visa is designed to mitigate economic risk. This study aims to analyze the impact of the Indonesian Remote Workers Visa on regional economic resilience in the tourism sector. Methods: This study uses a Delphi analysis approach consisting of two stages: a qualitative method with expert interview techniques and a quantitative method with a questionnaire technique. Findings: The results of the analysis are based on the results of the consensus of expert sources with standard deviation parameters (<1.5) and Interquartile (<2.5). Seven expert sources were from the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy and academics. The study results show that the tourism sector in Bali has not fully recovered even though there is a remote worker visa, and regional economic resilience has not been able to pass the recovery phase. Conclusion: The tourism sector is said to be able to avoid losses (vulnerability, resilience, and resilience) from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic with the support of remote worker visas. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study provides a novel analysis of the Indonesian Remote Worker Visa’s impact on Bali’s tourism resilience, using Delphi analysis to assess its effectiveness in mitigating post-pandemic economic risks.

Co-living, one of the home-sharing industries, has become an attractive trend in urban real estate because it offers flexibility and shared accommodation. The intention to book co-living accommodation is an important factor in the success of the home-sharing business, especially in co-living services. This study aims to analyze the factors that influence guest booking intention using attribution theory, which consists of reputation, trust, price consciousness, and perceived value variables. Method: This research uses an explanatory type of research with a quantitative approach by distributing online questionnaires to 155 people in JABODETABEK area who have used co-living. Research data analysis using simple linear regression and the Sobel test shows a positive and significant influence between reputation, trust, price consciousness, and perceived value variables on guest booking intention. Findings: The study found that reputation, trust, price consciousness, and perceived value all positively influence guest booking intention. Reputation has a positive influence on booking intention, mediated by trust, while price consciousness affects booking intention through perceived value. Conclusion: Reputation, trust, price consciousness, and perceived value are crucial in shaping guest booking intention in the co-living industry. The mediation of trust and perceived value highlights the complex dynamics influencing booking decisions. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study provides a novel analysis of the factors influencing guest booking intention in the co-living industry, highlighting the mediating roles of trust and perceived value, with a focus on reputation and price consciousness.

Abstract

Background: International Monetary Fund (IMF) as an international financial institution implements a liberalism policy for countries that need loan funds. In 2016 after lengthy negotiations and numerous rejections from the public, the Egyptian Government finally made an agreement with the IMF. This agreement is the first agreement after the revolution in Egypt in 2011, which was also assessed as a result of implementing IMF policies. Egyptian society feels that the policies set by the IMF did not bring prosperity evenly. The influence of the IMF on the implementation of economic liberalization policies then becomes an interesting thing to study. Methods: This study aims to analyze the background and influence of the IMF on the development of economic liberalization in Egypt and explain how Egypt implements the policies set by the IMF. This research is a qualitative research with a descriptive analytical approach. Findings: The theory that will be used in this research is the institutional neoliberal theory developed by Robert Owen Keohane and elaborated with the concept of interdependence. Conclusion: This research concludes that the negotiation agreement between the IMF and Egypt in 2016 is because the Egyptian economy is in a state of decline. And the program agreement that was agreed with the IMF as an international organization had an influence on Egypt both in monetary, fiscal and structural terms. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study reveals that Egypt's IMF-backed reforms stabilized the economy but primarily benefited the elite, while the poor faced harsher conditions. Despite these negative social impacts, Egypt continued the reforms due to its interdependence with the IMF.
