Abstract

Purpose: This study explores the state of digital governance in Southeast Sulawesi, focusing on the regions of Kendari, Kolaka, and Buton. It aims to assess the disparities in digital infrastructure readiness, institutional capacity, and inclusivity in these areas and their implications for effective governance Subjects and Methods: The research employs a qualitative methodology, including document analysis, interviews, and participant observation, to examine the local implementation of national digital policies. Results: The findings reveal that while Kendari exhibits high levels of digital maturity and institutional coordination, Kolaka and Buton face significant challenges due to limited infrastructure and lower institutional readiness. Inclusivity remains a key concern, particularly in rural areas, where digital literacy and access to technology are limited. The study contributes to the understanding of digital governance in peripheral regions and provides insights into how local governments can develop inclusive digital public infrastructure. Conclusions: The implications of these findings suggest that national policies need to be adapted to local contexts, with a focus on building institutional capacity and promoting digital inclusivity. The study highlights the importance of a holistic approach to digital governance, integrating technological, institutional, and social dimensions to achieve equitable and effective governance outcomes.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines the evolving dynamics of Indonesia’s open data policy within the broader context of digital governance. It aims to understand how the state negotiates the balance between transparency and data protection, particularly after the implementation of the One Data Indonesia initiative and the enactment of the Personal Data Protection Law. The research explores how institutional culture, ethical reasoning, and governance structures shape the interpretation and practice of openness in a rapidly digitalizing public sector. Subjects and Methods: Using a qualitative, interpretive approach, the study analyzes policy documents, legal frameworks, and institutional reports, complemented by semi-structured interviews with policymakers, data officers, and civic actors. Data were interpreted through thematic and critical policy analysis to uncover the narratives, tensions, and ethical dilemmas surrounding open data implementation in Indonesia’s bureaucratic institutions. Results: The findings reveal that open data governance in Indonesia remains fragmented across ministries and local governments. Bureaucratic actors often view transparency as both an obligation and a risk, constrained by overlapping regulations and fear of data misuse. Ethical ambiguities persist as institutions struggle to harmonize openness with privacy protection amid growing concerns over cybersecurity and public trust. Conclusions: The study concludes that Indonesia’s open data reform represents a moral and institutional negotiation rather than a purely technical project. Sustainable transparency requires legal clarity, digital infrastructure, ethical literacy, and civic engagement to build a culture of trust that reconciles openness with security.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates the effectiveness of e-participation in enhancing policy transparency in the Philippines. As digital platforms are increasingly used for public engagement in policy-making, the study seeks to evaluate how these platforms influence government transparency and citizen participation. Subjects and Methods: The research utilized semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders, document analysis, and case studies of key initiatives such as Open Data Philippines and E-Participation for Local Government Units. Results: The findings reveal that e-participation platforms have facilitated greater access to government data and increased public engagement; however, they also highlight significant barriers, including the digital divide, low digital literacy, and the lack of institutional responsiveness to citizen feedback. While e-participation has improved transparency in terms of data access, the process remains opaque due to the complexity of data presentation and the lack of mechanisms to integrate public feedback into policy decisions. Conclusions: The study concludes that for e-participation to be truly effective, the government must invest in digital infrastructure, prioritize digital literacy programs, and develop clear processes for incorporating citizen input into policymaking. These findings contribute to the body of knowledge on digital governance and provide recommendations for improving e-participation initiatives in the Philippines and similar developing contexts.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to explore how multilateral collaboration, particularly through the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Digital Strategy 2022–2025, addresses the governance gap that continues to shape the global digital ecosystem. It seeks to understand how institutional cooperation, ethical frameworks, and strategic interventions converge to build inclusive and sustainable digital governance models across diverse national contexts. Subjects and Methods: Using a qualitative interpretive approach, the study analyzes forty-eight institutional and policy documents published between 2018 and 2025 by the UNDP, OECD, ITU, and other global governance actors. Data were examined through thematic content analysis to identify patterns of institutional response, collaborative mechanisms, and normative transformation. The analysis was guided by global governance theory and the digital development framework to interpret how multilateral collaboration redefines the architecture of global digital order. Results: Findings indicate that UNDP’s multilateral approach has shifted the paradigm of digital cooperation from aid-driven assistance to co-creative governance. The Digital Strategy promotes inclusion, governance, and innovation as mutually reinforcing principles that bridge structural inequalities in digital capacity. Collaborative frameworks such as the Digital Public Goods Alliance and regional compacts demonstrate a gradual emergence of shared accountability and institutional reflexivity within digital governance. Conclusions: The study concludes that overcoming the governance gap requires more than technological advancement. It demands an ethical and institutional reconfiguration of multilateralism grounded in trust, participation, and human development values. The UNDP’s digital strategy exemplifies this evolution by reframing digital governance as a collective moral project that aligns innovation with equity and global solidarity.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of digital governance within the Smart Governance Program in Makassar City, Indonesia. It seeks to understand how digital systems reshape public administration, bureaucratic behavior, and citizen engagement in a developing urban context. The research does not merely measure performance outcomes but explores how governance principles such as transparency, efficiency, accountability, and participation are enacted and negotiated in daily administrative practice. Subjects and Methods: The study employs a qualitative evaluative design involving twenty participants, including local government officials, technical staff, and citizens who interact with digital service platforms. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews, document analysis, and participant observation. The analysis followed an interpretative thematic approach using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model, emphasizing the interrelation between institutional structures, technological adaptation, and user experience. Results: Findings reveal that while the Smart Governance Program has improved accessibility and introduced innovative digital services, it remains hindered by fragmented infrastructure, uneven bureaucratic adaptation, and limited citizen responsiveness. The coexistence of manual and digital systems reflects a transitional bureaucracy, and participation mechanisms often function symbolically rather than substantively. Trust and inclusivity emerge as pivotal factors in shaping the success of digital governance. Conclusions: Smart Governance in Makassar represents both progress and paradox. Its success depends not only on technological infrastructure but on institutional alignment, cultural readiness, and relational trust between government and citizens. Digital transformation must therefore be understood as a continuous process of learning, adaptation, and human-centered reform.
