Abstract

Food security is one of the important issues in regional development, especially in West Bandung which contributes greatly to food production in West Java Province. Gunung Halu Subdistrict has extensive agricultural land, but its productivity is hindered by an inadequate irrigation system. This study aims to analyze the strategy of the Public Works and Spatial Planning Agency (PUTR) in improving food security, identifying supporting and inhibiting factors, and examining efforts that have been made to overcome obstacles in food security. Jack Kooten’s strategy model (1991:81) was used, which consists organizational strategy, program strategy, resource support strategy, and institutional strategy. This study is qualitative with a phenomenological approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation studies. The results of the study indicate that the PUTR has implemented various irrigation development programs to support agricultural productivity in Gunung Halu Subdistrict. However, the challenges faced include the complex geographical conditions of the area and limited community involvement in the management of the irrigation system. Supporting factors for increasing food security include extensive agricultural land and the Development Planning Deliberation (Musrenbang) forum, which functions as a means of reporting if there is damaged irrigation. The PUTR strategies taken include water resource management and optimization of irrigation systems to increase agricultural yields. This research is expected to be a reference for local governments in developing more effective strategies to achieve food security.

Abstract

Recruitment and selection are critical components of human resource management, as they directly influence an organization’s ability to attract, identify, and retain top talent in a competitive industry. Despite extensive literature on recruitment strategies, limited research examines the integration of these practices with long-term organizational goals in Indonesian construction firms. This study explores the strategic recruitment and selection processes at WIKA Rekayasa Konstruksi (WRK), a subsidiary of PT Wijaya Karya Tbk (WIKA), and their impact on the quality of human resources as well as organizational performance. This study seeks to address this gap by analyzing WRK’s methodologies, assessing their effectiveness, and offering strategic recommendations for improvement. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach, the data was collected through interviews with a key informant, WRK’s Senior Manager of the Human Capital division. The findings reveal that while WRK employs comprehensive methods—such as competitive salary offerings, digital recruitment platforms, and multi-stage evaluations—there is room for improvement in aligning recruitment practices with strategic objectives and enhancing transparency in cost-related communication during post-selection stages. This research contributes to the academic discourse by highlighting best practices and challenges in recruitment within the construction sector, offering actionable insights for organizations aiming to optimize human resource management strategies.

Abstract

Jakarta Smart City, established under Governor Regulation No. 306 of 2016, holds significant potential to support the Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) system in strengthening national defense. By leveraging integrated technologies, Jakarta Smart City provides real-time data from many sectors such as transportation, logistics, and emergency management, which are highly relevant for strategic decision-making. This study aims to explore the potential, identify challenges, and formulate integration strategies between Jakarta Smart City technology and the C4ISR system. The research employs a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis based on secondary data from policy documents, official reports, and recent literature. Findings reveal that Jakarta Smart City can enhance intelligence, command, and control functions through real-time data and technological infrastructure, such as AI-powered CCTV and IoT sensors. However, significant challenges remain, including technological gaps between civilian and military systems, data security risks, and insufficient cross-agency coordination. In conclusion, successful integration requires improved interoperability between systems, enhanced cybersecurity measures, and updated national regulations to support synergy between civilian and military technologies. With these strategic measures, Jakarta Smart City can serve as a critical asset in bolstering national defense capabilities.

Abstract

This paper interrogates the transformation of human capital governance under the accelerating energies of digital globalization and technological innovation. It identifies a central governance problem: existing institutional arrangements are increasingly inadequate to address the ethical, distributive, and social challenges posed by algorithmic systems, digital platforms, and data-driven decision-making. While prior research has explored digital governance in areas such as e-government and automation, little attention has been paid to how these dynamics are reshaping human capital governance as a multi-scalar and ethically charged domain. The purpose of this study is to analyze these transformations and advance the concepts of multicentric digital governance and cross-border synchronization, which reconceptualize workforce governance as an adaptive, pluriversal, and participatory process. The discussion highlights the dual challenge of leveraging digital tools to enhance efficiency and inclusion while mitigating risks such as bias, commodification, and inequality. The paper concludes by outlining policy solutions that balance innovation with principled oversight, offering a framework for building resilient, equitable, and ethically grounded structures of human capital governance in the digital age. The conceptual framework advanced in this study offers insights for the broader governance and organizational studies literature, illustrating how digitalization reshapes authority, ethics, and stakeholder engagement across sectors.

Abstract

The COVID-19 crisis laid bare serious gaps in how public agencies handle emergencies, showing that strong leadership, flexible institutions, and clear communication are crucial when faced with emergency situations. This paper looks at those factors together to see how they shape emergency governance in Pakistan, specifically Karachi's public administration after the pandemic. Guided by notions about organizational resilience and adaptive governance, the author used Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to analyze survey data from 263 civil servants. Findings show that resilient leaders boost institutional flexibility and clearer messaging, with both improvements feeding into stronger governance. Institutional adaptability also acts as a partial bridge between leadership and overall governance results. Together, the results underline the need to build adaptable processes and open channels, which enable agencies to respond faster and stay accountable in situations of crisis. The study offers new ideas for governance theory and practical tips for officials trying to upgrade preparedness in fast-growing cities. Future work should test the model in other regions and at different levels of government to see how local context changes the story.

Abstract

In today’s digital age, equipping government agencies with the right technology is crucial to boost their overall performance. This paper looks at how digital bureaucratic competency and AI-enabled decision support affect public service quality and responsiveness in Pakistan’s public sector. Information was gathered from 423 staff members via a structured Google Form distributed through convenience sampling. The analytical framework grouped the study variables into four main blocks: digital know-how, AI application, service delivery results, and administrative responsiveness. Factor analysis confirmed the latent constructs, while regression tests measured the links between them. Results show that stronger digital skills and AI-assisted tools noticeably improve the speed and quality of public services, especially when demand is high and change is frequent. The research therefore urges deeper investments in training and AI infrastructure if for improved governance. The findings enrich ongoing debates in public administration and provide concrete guidance for policymakers who wish to build quicker, citizen-focused public services in developing countries.

Abstract

The 1998 Asian Financial Crisis was a milestone in the existence of structural policy reforms in the Indonesian financial sector. Most of the empirical results show that the financial crisis was caused by the lack of soundness and instability of the financial sector. This problem changed the perspective of Bank Indonesia, the central bank in Indonesia, that financial stability is as important as price stability. This highlights the need for the central bank to also ensure financial stability, while monetary policy focuses on price stability and economic growth. However, achieving these goals does not always ensure financial stability. To address systemic risk, Indonesia has begun adopting macroprudential policies. Thus, monetary policy cannot secure both price and financial stability, and a policy mix with macroprudential measures is needed to achieve both price and financial stability. This research examines the relationship between monetary and macroprudential policies and their effects on stability. Monetary policy was measured by the BI Rate and macroprudential policy was measured by Loan to Value (LTV). Price stability was proxied by inflation, and financial stability by credit growth. We analyzed the causality between the variables using the Vector Autoregression Model (VAR) and Granger Causality Test, using quarterly time series data from 2005:Q1 to 2018:Q3. The findings indicate that monetary and macroprudential policies significantly affect price and financial stability. Empirical findings show that tightening the BI rate and LTV significantly reduces inflation and credit growth. This paper highlights the need for a policy mix to ensure price and financial stability.

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to analyse startups and entrepreneurship programmes in India. There is an essential requirement to strengthen abilities in areas marked by actual skill gaps since self-employment provides a potential pathway to addressing unemployment. Entrepreneurship has a significant role in economic progress, and its creation of jobs is a common accolade for its practitioners. Self-employment offers a chance to overcome unemployment and poverty. The recent economic recession has led to a substantial surge in self-employment and business start-ups in many modernised economies, as people displaced sought to leverage their skills or pursue new opportunities. The small, independently owned businesses have a positive impact on the social, environmental, and economic development of the state and country. The Government of India launched a variety of initiatives to support businesses and startups. This article suggests a framework that outlines the use of innovation by policymakers in decision-making to promote innovation, startup entrepreneurship, and economic growth.
