Abstract

Background. Village infrastructure development plays a crucial role in enhancing the welfare of people in rural areas. Adequate infrastructure not only supports economic and social activities but also acts as a foundation for realizing equitable development. Aims. This study aims to analyze the implementation of village infrastructure development policies, especially the construction of village roads, in Surawangi Village, Jatiwangi District, Majalengka Regency. Methods. The research method employed is a descriptive qualitative approach, with a primary focus on George C. Edwards III's policy implementation theory, which encompasses four key variables: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. Result. The study's results indicate that the policy has been implemented, but it faces several obstacles. Policy communication remains suboptimal, particularly in the delivery of technical information. Resources such as tools and materials are readily available; however, limited human resources and technical data pose an obstacle. Conclusion. This study concludes that strengthening communication, capacity building, and bureaucratic reform at the village level are needed to support the implementation of more effective, participatory, and sustainable policies. Implementation. The implementation disposition is quite positive, characterized by high commitment; however, it has not been supported by adequate administrative compliance. A formal bureaucratic structure has been established; however, weaknesses remain in coordination, documentation, and procedural efficiency.

Abstract

Background. Smoking behavior remains one of the most significant public health issues in Indonesia. The country ranks third in the world in terms of the number of smokers, after China and India. According to the Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS, 2021) report, the prevalence of adult smokers in Indonesia reaches 34.5 percent or around 70.2 million people, of which 65.5 percent are men and only 3.3 percent are women, indicating a significant gender gap in smoking behavior (Tjandrarini et al., 2021). Aims. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Smoke-Free Zone (SFZ) policy in government work environments, particularly at the Cirebon City Education Office, focusing on supporting factors, obstacles, and the level of policy effectiveness. Methods. The method used is a qualitative case study, supported by direct observation and document analysis. In-depth interviews were conducted with ten key informants, including structural officials, staff, and supervisors. Result. The main problem in this study was the low level of compliance with the policy despite the issuance of regulations requiring it. The study showed that the Mayor's Circular Letter and no smoking signs had disseminated the SFZ policy normatively. Due to a lack of supervision, employee awareness, and clear sanctions, implementation has not gone well. Conclusion. Factors supporting implementation include leadership commitment and the availability of legislation, while factors hindering implementation include a strong smoking culture, limited supervisory resources, and a lack of designated smoking areas. Because the policy has not been consistently implemented, SFAs (Smoke-Free Areas) in the Cirebon City Education Office remain ineffective. Implementation. Recommendations include increasing education-based socialization, implementing administrative sanctions, and providing facilities in accordance with local regulations on SFAs.

Abstract

Background. The management of village funds in Indonesia has become an important foundation in strengthening community-based development. However, in practice, the effectiveness of budget allocation often faces complex local challenges. Purpose. This study aims to examine how village head leadership and local institutional strength can encourage the optimization of the use of village funds amid political pressure stemming from local rivalry after the village head election. This study was conducted in Mekarsari Village, Selaawi District, Garut Regency, a village with economic characteristics of the community that is mostly engaged in bamboo weaving crafts and has a strong social structure but is vulnerable to political polarization. Method. Using a qualitative approach with the main method of documentation study, this study utilizes official documents, namely RPJMDes, RKPDes, APBDes, and village deliberation minutes. Interviews are only conducted on a limited basis to strengthen the interpretation of document data. Result. The results of the analysis show that even though the village head has prepared a development plan according to the applicable rules and stages, the implementation of the program has faced obstacles by political resistance and subjective perceptions from some communities. However, strengthening participatory and transparent village institutions is able to withstand this pressure and maintain the direction of village development in accordance with the medium-term vision contained in the RPJMDes. Conclusion. This study recommends the need for a local political management strategy based on open dialogue and the strengthening of village institutions as a protector against short-term conflicts of interest. Implementation. These findings contribute to the village governance literature and demonstrate the importance of a balance between leadership, institutions, and local dynamics in village fund management.

Abstract

Background. The Increasing the Use of Domestic Products (P3DN) Program is one of the government's strategic efforts to encourage national economic growth through increasing the absorption of local products. Banten Province as one of the strategic areas in Indonesia has great potential in the development of domestic products, both from the industrial, MSME, and agricultural sectors. Aims. This article aims to analyze the implementation of the P3DN program in Banten Province, the challenges faced, and formulate optimization strategies that can be carried out by local governments and related stakeholders. Method. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with literature study methods, document analysis, and limited interviews with MSME actors, local government officials, and industrial estate managers in Banten Province Conclusion. The P3DN program in Banten Province has great potential to be optimized given the abundant industrial and MSME resources. Through a collaborative approach, increased socialization, and facilitation of TKDN certification and local e-catalogs, the implementation of P3DN can run more effectively. Implementation. Local governments need to take an active role as a catalyst for strengthening domestic products to have a positive impact on regional economic growth.

Abstract

Background. Public communication in the legislature faces increasingly complex challenges amid massive digital disruption. The phenomenon of post-truth and the speed of information virality often puts institutions such as the West Java Provincial Parliament in a difficult-to-predict reputation crisis. Aims. This research analyzes the crisis communication strategy of the West Java Provincial DPRD Public Relations in mitigating adverse reporting regarding budget issues in the digital disruption era. By integrating Situational Crisis Communication Theory (SCCT) and SWOT analysis, this study explores how institutional reputation is maintained through strategic digital platforms. Methods. Using a qualitative descriptive method with purposive sampling, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. Result. The results indicate that the DPRD Public Relations employs a combination of Diminish and Bolstering strategies. The SWOT analysis results, with coordinates (0.27; 0.43), place the institution in the aggressive-growth quadrant, underscoring the importance of integrating social media as a technical tool for rapid clarification. This study reinforces previous methodological findings on the urgency of SWOT analysis for mapping organizational resilience. Conclusion. The research concludes that navigating crises in the disruption era requires synchronizing technical digital agility with a unified internal narrative across political factions. Implementation. In practice, this research underscores the need to establish internal regulations, in the form of an SOP on Crisis Communication Across Factions, to ensure a single voice in responding to public issues. Academically, this study strengthens the relevance of integrating SWOT analysis into SCCT theory for legislative institutions in the era of disruption.

Abstract

Background. In the contemporary communication landscape, online media has transformed into a central pillar in the dissemination of information and the formation of public opinion. The speed, accessibility, and global reach of digital platforms enable news and information to spread instantly, transcending geographical and temporal constraints. Aims. This study aims to analyze how the local media outlet Rakyat Cirebon framed news coverage of damaged roads in East Cirebon Regency during April 2025. The issue of road infrastructure gained public attention due to its significant impact on residents' daily lives and economic activities. Methods. Using a qualitative approach and the framing analysis model developed by Robert N. Entman, this research explores how the media selects, emphasizes, and structures information to shape particular meanings in its audience's minds. Result. The findings reveal that Rakyat Cirebon consistently framed road damage as a failure of the local government to respond to public needs. The four framing elements—problem definition, causal interpretation, moral evaluation, and treatment recommendation—indicate a strong narrative that criticizes the executive branch while portraying the regional legislature (DPRD) as an active defender of public interests. Visual strategies, including emotive photographs, dramatic language, and selective sourcing, further reinforce the dominant frame presented. Conclusion. This study highlights that media framing is not merely a reflection of social reality, but an active process of constructing that reality through deliberate editorial choices. As such, media outlets hold an ethical responsibility to provide balanced and accurate reporting. Implementation. The findings also underline the importance of media literacy among the public, enabling citizens to engage critically with the narratives constructed by the press. On the other hand, local governments must be more proactive and transparent in addressing public issues in the media.

Abstract

Background. Building Approval (PBG) is an official permit from the government that replaces the IMB, which must be obtained by building owners to build new, alter, expand, or maintain buildings, ensure compliance with technical standards and regional spatial planning for safety, comfort, health, and ease of use, and is managed through the SIBG online system. Aims. This study analyzes the implementation of the Building Approval (PBG) policy in Cirebon City using George C. Edwards III's theory. Method. This qualitative study seeks to capture the realities of the field through the voices of policymakers in DPMPTSP and DPUTR, as well as the experiences of community permit applicants. In addition, budget limitations and the number of personnel are 'sticking points' that hinder the speed of service. Results. There is a research gap indicating that PBGs offer a new approach to building licensing that focuses on meeting technical standards and professional responsibilities, in contrast to IMBs, which are administrative in nature. Conclusion. Coordination between institutions still feels complex and has not been fully integrated. Implementation: As a step forward, this research encourages strengthening human resource capacity, simplifying the digital system, and more grounded socialization to ensure that this policy is truly effective for the residents of Cirebon City.
