The Makassar–Parepare railway project is Indonesia’s first Public-Private Partnership (PPP) initiative in the railway sector, with an investment value of IDR 1.1 trillion and operational costs of IDR 1.9 trillion. This study examines the relevance of Kingdon’s Multiple Streams Framework in public administration, particularly in the implementation of large-scale transport infrastructure. Using a qualitative-interpretative case study based on literature synthesis, the research shows that Kingdon’s framework is still relevant in explaining how policy decisions are shaped by contextual dynamics, actor interactions, and political opportunities. The findings highlight the important role of key actors in selecting governance models, as reflected in the partnership between the Ministry of Transportation and PT Celebes Railway Indonesia. This case demonstrates that governance choices influence agenda-setting and project implementation in infrastructure megaprojects. Overall, the study reveals that policy implementation is driven not only by the substance of policy problems but also by institutional interests, power relations, and strategic interactions among different actors.

Indonesia is highly vulnerable to disasters, e.g., floods, landslides, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions; all of which pose serious risks to public infrastructure resilience. Although infrastructure investment continues to increase, disaster risk considerations are not fully integrated into infrastructure planning and governance. This study develops a conceptual framework for integrating Disaster Risk Management (DRM) into public infrastructure governance in Indonesia. Using secondary data from the National Disaster Management Agency, the Ministry of Public Works and Housing, and international development reports, the study applies a qualitative approach to examine policy frameworks, institutional arrangements, and the use of risk information in infrastructure planning. The findings show that infrastructure governance in Indonesia remains largely reactive, with limited use of hazard mapping in spatial planning and weak coordination among relevant institutions. The proposed framework emphasizes cross-sectoral coordination, systematic use of geospatial risk data, and community participation in planning and decision-making. Strengthening these mechanisms can enhance infrastructure resilience, reduce disaster-related losses, and support sustainable public infrastructure investment.

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is one of the funding sources, alongside the State Budget (APBN), that can be used to support national development. This study aims to analyze the policies implemented by the Indonesian government to achieve adequate infrastructure development in accordance with the SDGs agenda, particularly transportation infrastructure that supports global sustainability by utilizing Chinese FDI as one of its funding sources. This study employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive research design. Primary data were obtained through interviews with the Ministry of Investment and Downstream Industry, while secondary data were collected from reports, journals, articles, and relevant websites. Using Theodore H. Moran’s concept of FDI and Development, this study analyzes how Indonesian government policies seek to achieve structural benefits in managing Chinese FDI in the transportation sector to support sustainable development. The findings show that the four main indicators of FDI and Development—transparency of payments, improvement of economic patterns, enhancement of the local business climate, and promotion of investment—have been implemented fairly well. Chinese FDI has contributed to technological transfer, skill upgrading, supporting industries, and improved investor confidence in Indonesia’s sustainable transportation development.

The development of Net-Zero Cities (NZCs) in Indonesia faces significant obstacles due to complex financing mechanisms and inherent governance challenges in Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs). Although PPPs have become a strategic instrument for addressing the financing gap in green infrastructure, high fiscal risks, uncertain benefits, and weak intergovernmental coordination continue to hinder their effectiveness. In this context, PT Penjaminan Infrastruktur Indonesia (PT PII) plays a vital role in mitigating risks by providing government-backed guarantees for infrastructure PPPs. However, the effectiveness of this role depends on oversight mechanisms conducted by the Audit Board of Indonesia (BPK) as the state audit institution. This paper therefore introduces the concept of a dual risk guarantee mechanism, which combines PT PII’s infrastructure guarantees with BPK’s fiscal oversight. Through this scheme, the feasibility of NZC projects can be strengthened, fiscal risks can be more carefully monitored, and public investment governance can be improved. The study draws on document analysis and case-based studies of contemporary practices in Indonesia. The authors find that the acceleration of NZCs requires robust oversight, the establishment of contingency funding, optimization of gearing ratios, risk transparency, and stronger synergy of PT PII, BPK, the Ministry of Finance, and other stakeholders.

This paper examines how infrastructure efficiency, proxied by GDP per unit of energy use, relates to environmental and economic factors in ASEAN-5 countries. The study covers Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam from 2010 to 2023, using annual data from the World Bank’s World Development Indicators. The empirical analysis applies pooled ordinary least squares, fixed-effects, and random-effects panel models, with the Hausman specification test to determine the preferred estimator. The regression sample is based on available country-year observations after accounting for missing data. The fixed-effects results show that carbon dioxide emissions per capita are negatively and significantly associated with infrastructure efficiency, while electricity consumption per capita is positively and significantly associated with it. GDP per capita and the renewable energy share have positive coefficients in the fixed-effects model, but these estimates are not statistically significant at conventional levels. Overall, the findings suggest that lower CO₂ emissions per capita and higher electricity consumption per capita are more consistently associated with infrastructure efficiency, while GDP per capita and renewable energy share show less robust statistical relationships in the present sample. These results highlight the importance of combining cleaner energy use with more productive energy systems.

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is increasingly discussed as a policy option for decarbonizing hard-to-abate industries and supporting Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) implementation. In Indonesia, recent regulatory progress—especially Presidential Regulation No. 14 of 2024—has created an initial legal basis for CCS, but industrial deployment still depends on the coherence of policy, regulatory, and licensing arrangements across multiple sectors. This study examines the policy and regulatory readiness of industrial CCS in Indonesia through a qualitative, document-based analysis of laws, regulations, policy documents, peer-reviewed literature, and stakeholder consultations. The assessment is operationalized through eight readiness indicators: policy alignment, regulatory clarity, institutional coordination, licensing integration, environmental integrity, social safeguards, governance accountability, and Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) readiness. The findings show that Indonesia has made important progress in establishing a legal foundation for CCS, yet readiness remains partial. The authority is fragmented across energy, environment, industry, licensing, transport, and sustainable-finance domains; long-term liability and post-closure stewardship remain insufficiently specified; and the integration of social safeguards and ESG-linked governance requirements is still limited. The article argues that industrial CCS can support the pillar of ESG, but only if Indonesia strengthens coordination, clarifies liability, streamlines licensing, and aligns CCS governance with ESG-oriented policy and reporting expectations.
