Abstract

The Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) increasingly relies on external grants both cash and in kind to strengthen early warning, forecasting, and service delivery, yet recurring administrative irregularities in grant receipt and management continue to generate audit exposure and weaken the reliability of institutional reporting. This study aims to examine why grant governance problems persist despite an established legal framework and organizational responsibility structure, and to identify policy options that can improve transparency, accountability, and rule-of-law compliance in BMKG’s grant governance. Methodologically, the research employs a qualitative, descriptive case-study approach with a policy and governance analysis orientation, drawing on a combination of document review (regulations, internal guidelines, and relevant administrative records) and stakeholder perspectives from organizational units involved in planning, finance, asset management, procurement, and internal oversight. Data were analyzed through thematic content analysis using good-governance principles as analytical benchmarks, complemented by a root-cause perspective and a SOAR-based evaluation to assess strengths, opportunities, aspirations, and results for reform implementation. The findings show that the most critical gaps are not merely normative but operational: fragmented workflows, delayed and uneven reporting practices, limited procedural literacy among implementers, and weak enforcement mechanisms often compounded by non-integrated systems and manual workarounds that reduce traceability and undermine documentation quality. The study further finds that isolated interventions are insufficient; improvements in socialization alone will not sustain compliance without standardized operational guidance and enforceable accountability.

Abstract

Bandung City faces escalating municipal solid waste challenges driven by rapid urban growth, consumption patterns, and limited treatment capacity. In response, waste banks (bank sampah) have emerged as community-based initiatives that promote recycling and waste segregation; however, their performance varies widely across districts due to institutional, financial, and technological constraints. This study aims to evaluate the strategic role of waste banks within Bandung’s municipal solid waste management system through a structured SWOT analysis. A descriptive qualitative approach was applied, utilizing secondary data from journal articles, government reports, and credible news sources published between 2015 and 2025. Findings reveal strong community participation, environmental awareness, and institutional support as core strengths, while weaknesses include inadequate infrastructure, inconsistent funding, and the absence of digital monitoring systems. Opportunities are found in circular economy policies, CSR-based partnerships, and technological innovations for data management. External threats include fluctuating recyclable prices, landfill capacity limitations, and policy instability. Based on these insights, strategic recommendations were formulated, including the integration of waste banks into formal municipal planning, digital platform adoption, standardized operating procedures, and cross-sector collaboration. The study concludes that waste banks hold significant potential to support Bandung’s transition toward a circular and sustainable urban waste-management model, provided that institutional strengthening and technological innovation are prioritized. This research serves as a practical reference for policymakers, academics, and community stakeholders in addressing urban waste challenges.

Abstract

Social Assistance (Bansos) and Direct Cash Transfers (BLT) constitute important instruments for poverty alleviation in Indonesia. However, their distribution often encounters targeting errors caused by inaccurate beneficiary data, nontransparent distribution processes, and potential program politicization. These targeting errors generate budgetary inefficiencies and undermine public confidence in the effectiveness of assistance. Consequently, policy reform of Bansos and BLT distribution assumes critical importance. This article aims to identify the primary obstacles in the distribution of Bansos and BLT and to formulate practical strategic policy solutions that enhance targeting accuracy and program effectiveness. The literature review further explores reform measures that can improve benefit distribution and promote more equitable improvements in community economic welfare. The research employs a literature-study approach to analyze policies, official reports, and relevant literature concerning Bansos and BLT distribution. The review covers regulatory frameworks, beneficiary data, and recommendations from academic and policy practitioners. The study recommends several key strategies, including updating beneficiary data using the National Identification Number (NIK); increasing transparency of distribution procedures; establishing independent oversight to prevent program politicization; strengthening digital infrastructure in frontier, outermost, and disadvantaged (3T) regions; implementing a responsive public complaints mechanism; and adopting multidimensional poverty indicators. Implementing the proposed strategic solutions should enhance the effectiveness of Bansos and BLT programs and thereby foster a more equitable and sustainable improvement in the economic welfare of target populations.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of data-driven governance innovation in improving institutional quality in the Indonesian public sector. Specifically, the research analyzes the direct and indirect effects of technology, organizational capacity, and regulatory frameworks on institutional quality, with data-driven governance innovation positioned as a mediating variable. The study responds to the growing demand for evidence-based public administration amid digital bureaucracy reform and the implementation of e-government initiatives in Indonesia. The research employs a mixed-methods approach with a sequential explanatory design. Quantitative data were collected through a structured survey of civil servants across central and local government institutions that have implemented digital governance systems. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to test measurement validity, reliability, and structural relationships among variables. This quantitative phase was complemented by qualitative data obtained from in-depth interviews with key informants involved in digital governance, which were analyzed thematically to provide contextual explanations of the statistical findings. The results indicate that data-driven governance innovation has a positive and significant effect on institutional quality. Technology emerges as the most influential factor, exerting both direct and indirect effects through governance innovation. Organizational capacity shows a moderate but significant influence, while regulatory factors display a weak and inconsistent effect. These findings suggest that strengthening technological infrastructure and organizational capabilities is essential for enhancing institutional quality through data-driven governance in the public sector.

Abstract

Indonesia’s archipelagic geography makes maritime transport, fisheries, offshore works, and coastal livelihoods highly exposed to rapidly changing hydro-meteorological hazards, so marine meteorological services function as critical decision infrastructure rather than merely forecast products. This study examines the governance-to-implementation gap in BMKG’s Marine Meteorological System Phase II (MMS-2), a technology-intensive modernization program financed by an AFD external loan (€63.7 million) that experienced an extreme implementation lag of around 4.5–5 years, delaying service benefits and increasing fiscal exposure. Using a qualitative single-case design, the research relies on documentary evidence (planning/design artefacts, implementation records, and legal–procedural frameworks) to reconstruct the end-to-end implementation timeline, identify decision choke points, map causal chains through Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), and derive improvement options via the SOAR framework integrated with top-down/bottom-up implementation logics. Findings show the dominant bottleneck was low governance throughput slow, uncertain decision-making that stalled procurement and delivery driven by mutually reinforcing factors: early planning immaturity, regulatory deadlock between national procurement requirements (including TKDN/local content) and lender No Objection procedures, and legal shifts linked to the CFA amendment. Although acceleration emerged after the first drawdown (March 2025), persistent risks remained in fiscal data accountability and late-stage integration under a compressed catch-up corridor to 2028. The study concludes that a two-track “Agile Governance” strategy permanent cross-agency steering plus an autonomous joint task force with harmonized technical–procedural guidance and strengthened data integrity can accelerate delivery while preserving transparency and auditability.
