Abstract

Indonesia’s electoral process is increasingly influenced by digital transformation, public demand for transparency, and the need to strengthen democratic participation in a complex political and geographical setting. This article aims to examine the concept of smart election governance and its relationship with public participation in Indonesia’s electoral process. The study uses a qualitative research method with a literature-based approach by reviewing relevant academic sources, policy discussions, and conceptual studies related to electoral governance, digital administration, information integrity, and citizen engagement. The findings show that smart election governance is supported by five main dimensions: digital electoral administration, public participation, information integrity, ethical institutional coordination, and collaborative governance among election management bodies, government institutions, civil society, media, digital platforms, and citizens. Digital systems contribute to improving voter data management, logistics monitoring, electoral information access, complaint reporting, and result transparency. However, the study also finds that technological innovation must be accompanied by data protection, digital inclusion, institutional accountability, and civic literacy to prevent misinformation, unequal access, and declining public trust. The article concludes that smart election governance should not be understood merely as the adoption of technology in election management, but as an integrated democratic framework that connects digital innovation, institutional integrity, and active citizen participation. This framework is essential for strengthening transparency, public trust, democratic engagement, and electoral legitimacy in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study evaluates the use of the Food Security and Vulnerability Atlas (FSVA) as an indicator-based instrument in the food security planning process of Tanjungpinang City. The issue is important because Tanjungpinang, as an urban and archipelagic area, has limited agricultural land, depends on food supplies from outside the region, and faces uneven socioeconomic and basic service conditions across its wards. The purpose of this study is to assess how FSVA indicators can describe local food security conditions, identify vulnerable areas, and support evidence-based planning for targeted policy interventions. This research employed a quantitative descriptive approach using secondary data from relevant government institutions, including data on food supply facilities, low-welfare population, transportation connectivity, clean water access, and health personnel. The data were analyzed through individual indicator analysis, standardization, weighting, composite scoring, and spatial classification into six priority groups. The findings show that Tanjungpinang City is generally in a relatively food-secure condition, with no ward classified as Priority 1. However, one ward is classified as Priority 2, one ward as Priority 3, one ward as Priority 4, seven wards as Priority 5, and eight wards as Priority 6. Senggarang and Dompak require particular attention because their vulnerability is influenced by low-income households, limited clean water access, and an unequal ratio of health personnel. The study concludes that FSVA is useful not only as a vulnerability mapping tool but also as a planning framework that links data, spatial analysis, causal factors, and policy interventions to strengthen sustainable urban food security.

Abstract

This study examines the issue of unequal maritime-based investment distribution in Kepulauan Riau, an archipelagic province with strategic economic potential due to its proximity to international shipping routes, cross-border trade networks, port infrastructure, and marine-based resources. Although Kepulauan Riau has recorded significant investment growth, investment realisation remains concentrated in Batam, while outer-island districts such as Natuna, Anambas, and Lingga continue to face limited capital inflows, weak infrastructure, and low integration into regional value chains. This study aims to evaluate the direction of investment policy and its contribution to equitable regional development in Kepulauan Riau. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the study analyses secondary data from the Kepulauan Riau Province Investment and One-Stop Service Agency for 2021–2025, supported by policy review and regional development analysis. The findings show that Batam consistently dominates provincial investment realisation, while Bintan and Karimun experience fluctuating growth and outer-island districts remain structurally marginal. The results also indicate that investment inequality is influenced by uneven connectivity, limited logistics infrastructure, weak investment promotion, insufficient downstream industries, and fragmented institutional coordination. The study concludes that equitable maritime-based investment requires a shift from a Batam-centred growth model toward a spatially inclusive development strategy through thematic economic zones, regional investment potential mapping, infrastructure acceleration, green investment, strengthened investment coordination, and local community integration into maritime value chains.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the implementation of the Koperasi Merah Putih (KMP) policy as an actor in supporting the programme to provide free nutritious meals for school students in Tanjungpinang City. Koperasi Merah Putih, which was formed with a spirit of multi-stakeholder collaboration, is believed to play an important role in the food supply chain and logistics distribution, thereby ensuring the effectiveness and sustainability of the programme. Using a qualitative approach with case studies, this study focuses on the implementation model of (George C. Edwards III: 1980) Communication, Resources, Disposition, and Bureaucratic Structure.  Data was collected through in-depth interviews with the management of the Merah Putih Cooperative, school principals, and representatives from the Education Office and the Cooperative Office. The results show that the implementation of this policy faces major challenges in terms of resources, particularly the availability of working capital and efficient supply chain management capabilities, as well as land for the Merah Putih Cooperative office. Several areas of Tanjungpinang City face difficulties in land management and the cooperative's business activities. On the other hand, communication and the disposition of actors show high levels of support. Koperasi Merah Putih has succeeded in reducing logistics costs and improving the quality of raw materials, but the scalability of the programme still requires more integrated administrative and budgetary support from the Tanjungpinang City Government. This study recommends the need to strengthen the supporting bureaucratic structure and increase the capacity of Koperasi Merah Putih   through modern management training to achieve optimal public policy effectiveness in supporting the free nutritious meal programme.

Abstract

This study examines the Galang Batang Special Economic Zone as a strategic instrument for accelerating downstreaming-based economic transformation in Bintan, Kepulauan Riau Province, Indonesia. The main problem addressed in this article is the extent to which Galang Batang SEZ can move Bintan’s economy beyond dependence on raw-resource extraction, tourism, and service-based activities toward a more integrated industrial structure based on bauxite processing, alumina production, investment facilitation, and export-oriented value creation. The objective of this study is to analyze the role of Galang Batang SEZ in supporting mineral downstreaming, strengthening industrial infrastructure, generating local economic linkages, and contributing to sustainable regional transformation. This research uses a qualitative descriptive-analytical method based entirely on secondary data. The data were obtained from academic literature, government documents, official reports, statistical publications, policy documents, and credible online sources related to special economic zones, downstreaming policy, regional industrialization, and Bintan’s economic development. The data were analyzed through document review and content analysis by classifying information into strategic foundations, industrial infrastructure, value creation, regional economic effects, governance challenges, and sustainability risks. The findings show that Galang Batang SEZ has strong potential to become a downstreaming hub because it combines strategic maritime location, bauxite-processing orientation, investment incentives, industrial infrastructure, port connectivity, and export market access. The SEZ also has the potential to support employment creation, local business growth, economic diversification, and regional competitiveness. However, its long-term impact depends on the ability of policymakers and industrial actors to prevent enclave industrialization, strengthen local supplier participation, improve workforce skills, ensure environmental management, and build adaptive governance.

Abstract

Equivalency education plays an important role in Indonesia’s national education system by providing alternative learning pathways for citizens who are unable to complete formal schooling through regular educational routes. However, graduates of non-formal education, particularly those from Paket A, Paket B, and Paket C, still face challenges related to certificate recognition, administrative verification, public trust, and acceptance by higher education institutions, employers, and public agencies. In response to these issues, the e-certificate policy has emerged as a significant instrument for strengthening the credibility, authenticity, and portability of educational credentials in the digital era. This study aims to analyze the opportunities, challenges, and impacts of e-certificate policy on the recognition of non-formal education graduates in Indonesia. The research employed a qualitative approach using secondary data analysis. Data were collected from regulations, government policy documents, institutional reports, scholarly articles, and relevant literature on digital credentials, equivalency education, and educational recognition. The data were analyzed through document review and content analysis by identifying regulatory foundations, institutional mechanisms, implementation challenges, and recognition outcomes. The findings show that e-certificate policy offers several opportunities, including faster certificate issuance, easier digital verification, reduced document falsification, improved administrative efficiency, and stronger institutional trust in non-formal education credentials. Nevertheless, the policy also faces challenges related to unequal digital infrastructure, limited institutional readiness, data protection risks, inconsistent recognition across sectors, and the continuing social stigma toward equivalency education graduates.

Abstract

This study stems from the increasing intensity of anchorage activities in the waters of the Riau Islands Province, which has dual implications: it opens up significant economic opportunities for the region, but also raises the potential for conflicts of authority between different levels of government. This situation confirms that anchorage has not only an economic dimension, but is also closely related to the issue of marine spatial management, which has yet to be fully and comprehensively managed. Therefore, this study aims to comprehensively assess the economic potential generated by anchorage activities and identify the main issues related to overlapping authorities in its management. The method used is a literature study with a descriptive approach, through research and analysis of regulations, official government reports, secondary data, and various relevant previous studies. The results of the study show that anchorage activities have the potential to be a significant source of regional income, but their utilisation has not been optimal due to policy inconsistencies, differences in regulatory interpretations, and conflicts over maritime spatial management authority. Therefore, optimising anchorage requires regulatory harmonisation, clarity in the division of authority, and strengthened intergovernmental coordination so that economic benefits can be maximised without triggering ongoing administrative conflicts

Abstract

ABSTRACT   This study examines the strengthening of maritime governance in Lingga Regency as a strategic effort to accelerate the development of disadvantaged areas through the principles of good governance and the blue economy. As an archipelagic region where nearly 90 per cent of the territory consists of marine areas, Lingga Regency faces persistent challenges related to the distribution of authority, limited fiscal capacity, and the performance of local governance institutions. Using a descriptive qualitative approach based on an extensive review of relevant literature, this study focuses on three key dimensions: the institutional framework of maritime governance, the development of fisheries-based maritime economic activities within the blue economy paradigm, and the integration of marine resource conservation with coastal social equity. The findings reveal that effective maritime governance in Lingga Regency depends largely on strong coordination among national, provincial, and district governments through a multi-level governance mechanism, supported by meaningful participation of coastal communities, particularly the Suku Laut (Sea Tribe). The implementation of initiatives such as the Modern Fishermen Village (Kalamo), fisher social protection programs, and the designation of Regional Marine Conservation Areas (KKPD) has contributed to a more inclusive and sustainable maritime development trajectory. Overall, the study concludes that collaborative and integrated maritime governance is a critical foundation for achieving economic resilience and environmental sustainability in archipelagic regions.

Abstract

Regional financial and asset accountability is a crucial element in strengthening transparent, compliant, and performance-oriented public governance, particularly for provincial governments responsible for managing budget execution, financial reporting, and regional asset administration. This study aims to evaluate the optimization of financial and asset accountability through the 2025 performance achievements of the Regional Financial and Asset Agency (BKAD) of Kepulauan Riau Province. The research employed a qualitative descriptive approach using secondary data as the sole source of analysis. Data were obtained from performance achievement reports, budget realization data, financial reports, asset management documents, regulatory references, and audit-related information. The data were analyzed through descriptive analysis, content analysis, and comparative performance assessment by comparing targets and realization values across key accountability indicators. The findings show that BKAD Kepulauan Riau Province achieved strong performance in 2025. The timeliness of APBD establishment reached 100%, APBD expenditure realization reached 94.55% against a target of 91% with an achievement level of 103.99%, and the timeliness of financial report submission reached 100%. In asset accountability, the Asset Management Index reached 2.70 against a target of 2.10, producing an achievement level of 128.6%, while IKU achievement also reached 100%. These results indicate that BKAD has demonstrated effective financial discipline, improved asset governance, and consistent institutional performance. The study concludes that optimizing financial and asset accountability requires continuous integration of regulatory compliance, internal control, audit follow-up, data reliability, and performance-based transparency to support accountable regional governance.

Abstract

This article examines legal certainty in the dispute resolution of the 30 percent women’s representation requirement in the Bintan Regency DPRD election. The issue arises from an electoral dispute concerning the alleged non-fulfillment of the minimum women’s representation requirement in the candidate list of a political party in Bintan Electoral District 3, where the proportion of women candidates was argued to be below the statutory threshold. This case is significant because it reflects the tension between affirmative action in electoral politics and the procedural certainty required in election dispute resolution. The objective of this study is to analyze how legal certainty operates in resolving disputes over women’s representation, particularly in relation to institutional jurisdiction, procedural deadlines, the finality of election results, and the validity of election management decisions. This study employs a qualitative juridical-normative method using secondary data obtained from statutory regulations, KPU decisions, Constitutional Court decisions, DKPP decisions, official election documents, and relevant scholarly literature. The findings show that the 30 percent women’s representation requirement is a binding affirmative electoral norm intended to strengthen inclusive democracy and gender equality. However, its enforcement must follow the correct legal stage and institutional mechanism. In the Bintan case, the dispute was submitted after the formal determination of election results, thereby raising questions regarding judicial competence and procedural admissibility. The study also finds that the principle of praesumptio iustae causa confirms the validity of KPU decisions until annulled by a competent authority. The article concludes that gender-responsive electoral justice must be integrated with legal certainty through early verification, preventive supervision, clear dispute pathways, legal education for electoral participants, and consistent institutional coordination.
