Abstract

This study aims to analyze community empowerment through the utilization of local food-based Pecotot Reborn MSMEs in Pulau Sejuk Village, Datuk Limapuluh District. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results show that the management of Pecotot Reborn MSMEs reflects a collaborative empowerment pattern between the village government and business actors. The government still plays a primary role but provides participatory space in strategic decision-making. Community empowerment is reflected through six main indicators: authority, confidence and competence, trust, opportunities, responsibilities, and support. Pecotot Reborn MSMEs are able to improve digital promotion capabilities, maintain product quality, expand business networks, and innovate in local food development. Government support through training, capital, and promotion also strengthens business sustainability. Overall, Pecotot Reborn MSMEs contribute significantly to increasing income, economic independence, and preserving local food for the people of Pulau Sejuk Village.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the influence of E-Service Quality and Price Perception on Repurchase Intention with Customer Satisfaction as an intervening variable on Spotify users among students of the Faculty of Economics, State University of Medan. The research method used is quantitative with an explanatory research approach. The research respondents numbered 100 students selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data collection was carried out through distributing questionnaires and analyzed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) method to test the validity, reliability, and relationships between variables in the structural model. The test results show that E-Service Quality has a positive and significant influence on Customer Satisfaction and Repurchase Intention. Price Perception is also proven to have a positive influence on Customer Satisfaction and Repurchase Intention. In addition, Customer Satisfaction acts as a partial mediator in the relationship between E-Service Quality and Price Perception on Repurchase Intention. These findings underscore the importance of improving the quality of digital services and appropriate pricing to strengthen customer satisfaction, thereby encouraging Spotify users to make repeat purchases.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze how the transformation of the tourism sector can play a key role in increasing Regional Original Income (PAD) in Majene Regency. The urgency of this research lies in the need to strengthen the role of tourism as a primary source of PAD amidst increasingly fierce competition among regional and national tourist destinations. Majene Regency has rich natural, cultural, and maritime tourism potential, but it has not been managed optimally and sustainably. The research method uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, field observations, and policy document reviews. Data analysis is conducted thematically to identify patterns, relationships, and key themes related to the potential, obstacles, and strategies for regional tourism development. The results show that tourism transformation in Majene requires synergy between the local government, business actors, and the community in managing local potential in a sustainable, innovative, and inclusive manner. The resulting recommendations emphasize the importance of tourism governance reform, improving supporting infrastructure, and implementing policies based on community participation. Thus, tourism transformation is expected to be a catalyst for increasing PAD while strengthening the regional economic foundation towards competitive and sustainable development.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and develop a User Experience (UX)-based website to increase customer satisfaction and sales at the Dimsum Maidanii MSME. The background of this study is based on the low level of customer satisfaction with the existing website, where 70% of respondents said they were dissatisfied and 96.7% suggested further development. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D) with a waterfall model, which includes the stages of needs analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. The research sample consisted of 30 customers, 1 business owner, and 2 media experts. Data collection was carried out through interviews, observations, questionnaires, and sales documentation. The evaluation instrument used the System Usability Scale (SUS) to measure user experience and customer satisfaction. The test results showed a SUS score of 95.7 which is included in the "Excellent" category, indicating the website is easy to use and effective in increasing customer interaction. In addition, a comparison of sales data from June (before development) and July 2025 (after development) showed an increase of 3.22%. These findings demonstrate that implementing UX principles on websites impacts customer satisfaction and increases sales. This research confirms that a UX-based digitalization strategy is a strategic step for MSMEs to compete in the digital economy.

Abstract

The quality of public services in Indonesia is currently under scrutiny. Bureaucracy in Indonesia is associated with a negative stigma that undermines public trust. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of e-government policies in personnel management through the Apparatus Information System (SIAP) in the Bekasi City Government (Pemkot) using the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) model. SIAP Bekasi City currently has quite good achievements at the city and national levels. An obstacle in this study was the decline in the Public Satisfaction Survey (SKM) score of the Bekasi City Government from 2020 to 2023, based on 2023 data of 83.65. Qualitative data collection techniques were used in this study. The findings of this study indicate that SIAP Bekasi City is still not optimal in fulfilling the product element in personnel data management in the Bekasi City Government. The recommendation of this study is to maximize the evaluation results as material for further discussion to improve service quality.

Abstract

This study analyzes the role of fruit waste briquette sales in increasing income and community welfare in Babussalam Village. Fruit waste, which is usually discarded, can be converted into environmentally friendly briquettes with economic value. The study used a descriptive quantitative approach with a case study, involving 30 respondents consisting of briquette producers and distributors. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and questionnaires, then analyzed using descriptive statistics and simple regression. The results show that briquette sales significantly increased household income by an average of 35% and improved welfare indicators such as education, health, and household consumption. The study concludes that the utilization and commercialization of fruit waste briquettes supports economic improvement in rural communities while simultaneously promoting sustainable environmental management. Further research is recommended to expand market access and integrate digital marketing strategies to increase the competitiveness of environmentally friendly briquette products.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of capital structure, profitability, and liquidity on the valuation of companies in the construction industry listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period from 2020 to 2024. Using a quantitative methodology, this study employs panel data regression along with a Random Effects Model estimation technique, drawing on secondary data from 22 construction companies that met the established sampling criteria over a five-year observation period. The findings reveal that, separately, capital structure has a negative but statistically insignificant impact on firm valuation. Conversely, profitability exhibits a negative and statistically significant effect on firm value, while liquidity exhibits a positive and statistically significant effect on firm valuation. Collectively, the three independent variables significantly influence firm valuation. These results suggest that investors prioritize firm liquidity when evaluating the prospects and value of construction companies. Conversely, high profitability does not consistently correlate with increased firm value, potentially due to market perceptions regarding the quality of earnings generated. The implications of this study underscore the need for company management to prioritize liquidity management and improve financial information transparency to enhance firm value from an investor perspective.
