Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to propose a development strategy using the Green Marketing Model to establish the Sein Farm as a sustainable tourism destination in collaboration with Pokdarwis (Tourism Awareness Group) Cisurupan, Bandung. Research Methodology: This study applied a qualitative method with thematic analysis. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with respondents and unstructured focus group discussions (FGD) with Pokdarwis. The analysis was conducted using STP, PESTLE, SWOT & TOWS, Hexa Helix, and Sustainable Tourism Indicators. Results: Thematic analysis identified green marketing indicators, including eco-friendly products, affordable tour packages, natural resource use, certified human resources, and green attractions (tree planting and waste sorting) and farmer-style architecture. STP analysis positioned the Sein Farm for students, targeting urban schools interested in urban farming education. Pokdarwis collaboration supports sustainable tourism through cultural activities, waste management, traditional games, and community empowerment via eco-souvenirs and MSMEs. Conclusion: Integrating the Green Marketing Model with community collaboration enhances Sein Farm’s role as a sustainable tourism destination by merging environmental, educational, and cultural dimensions of sustainability. This approach positions the Sein Farm as a model for urban-farming-based ecotourism. Limitation: This study is limited to a qualitative approach with a specific case study at the Sein Farm Cisurupan, Bandung. Broader generalization may require quantitative validation and comparative studies of other sustainable tourism destinations. Contribution: This research enriches the sustainable tourism literature by presenting a practical framework that integrates green marketing with community collaboration, offering guidelines for developing eco-friendly tourism that preserves culture, protects the environment, and empowers communities through eco-products and MSMEs.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the influence of competence, independence, and professionalism of government internal auditors on audit quality at the Representative Office of the Financial and Development Supervisory Agency (BPKP) in South Sulawesi Province. Research methodology: The study involved 40 respondents selected through random sampling from all internal auditors at the BPKP Representative Office. A quantitative approach was applied using primary data collected through questionnaires. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality and linearity tests, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, multiple regression, R Square, t-tests, and F-tests. Results: The findings indicate that competence and professionalism significantly and positively affect audit quality, whereas independence has a positive but insignificant effect. Simultaneously, competence, independence, and professionalism collectively have a positive and significant impact on audit quality at BPKP South Sulawesi. Conclusion: Audit quality is largely determined by competence and professionalism, highlighting the importance of expertise and professional standards in ensuring effective supervision. Independence alone is insufficient without strong competence and professionalism. Limitation: The research was limited to a small sample size within a single regional office, which may restrict its generalizability. Broader studies across multiple regions and larger populations are therefore recommended. Contribution: This study enriches the public sector auditing literature by highlighting the mediating role of competence and professionalism. Practically, it guides policymakers and BPKP to strengthen training, continuous professional development, and auditing standards to enhance accountability and effectiveness.

Research methodology: The data used in this study were collected through a survey of Gen-Z students, teachers, and staff members at Tri Ratna School-Jakarta, aged between 16 and 27 years. The analysis was conducted using Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to test the relationships between variables. Results: This study’s findings are expected to provide insights into the importance of financial literacy and the influence of lifestyle in shaping the financial well-being of Gen Z, as well as the role of locus of control in strengthening or weakening these influences. The findings are expected to serve as a reference for financial education and the development of more effective policies to improve the financial well-being of younger generations in Indonesia, particularly at Tri Ratna School-Jakarta. Conclusions: Financial well-being among Gen-Z is determined not only by literacy and lifestyle but also by the locus of control, which functions as a psychological driver of effective financial behavior. Integrating financial education with self-control and lifestyle management can improve financial resilience. Limitations: This study was limited to one institution in Jakarta, which may not represent a broader population. It also relies on self-reported data that may be biased. Contribution: This research contributes to financial education by highlighting the importance of the locus of control and lifestyle choices in shaping Gen’s financial well-being, providing insights for schools and policymakers.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates the factors influencing the income of indigenous Papuan vendors at Pharaa Sentani market, Jayapura Regency, in line with Law No. 21 of 2001 on Special Autonomy, which seeks to improve Papuan welfare through economic empowerment. Methodology: A quantitative approach was applied using multiple linear regression analysis. Primary data were collected from 49 vendor respondents through questionnaires. The independent variables analyzed include business capital, length of business, working hours, and education. Results: The analysis shows that business capital, length of business, and education have a significant positive effect on income, contributing 8%, 12.5%, and 30.5%, respectively. Meanwhile, working hours did not significantly influence income, accounting for only 5.8%. Together, the four variables explain 46.8% of income variation, while 53.2% is affected by external factors such as market conditions, social networks, and product quality. Conclusion: The findings highlight that education and business capital are the most decisive factors for income growth. Longer working hours and years in business alone are insufficient without adequate capital and knowledge. Limitations: The study is limited to 49 respondents from one market, which may restrict generalization. Other factors such as cultural norms and supply chain constraints were not considered. Contribution: This research adds to the literature on indigenous economic empowerment and provides recommendations for policymakers to enhance access to education, training, capital, and market infrastructure for Papuan vendors.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the influence of compensation and motivation on employee performance at the Population and Civil Registration Service of Bandung Regency. Research Methodology: A quantitative approach was applied using descriptive analysis and SEM-PLS to test variable relationships. The population consisted of employees of the agency, and 60 respondents were selected using a Simple Probability sampling technique. The independent variables were compensation and motivation, and employee performance was the dependent variable. Results: The findings revealed that compensation has a positive but insignificant effect on performance, while motivation shows a significant positive effect. When combined, compensation and motivation significantly improved performance. This highlights that fair compensation and increased motivation strategies play a key role in enhancing productivity and creating a supportive work environment. Conclusions: This study concludes that motivation is a stronger driver of performance than compensation alone. However, integrating both financial and motivational strategies produces a synergistic effect that supports sustainable improvement in employee performance. Limitations: The research was limited to a small sample within one government institution and focused only on two independent variables, thus reducing generalizability and excluding other potential factors, such as leadership or organizational culture. Contribution: This study enriches the public sector HR literature by emphasizing the complementary role of compensation and motivation in shaping performance and offering practical recommendations for designing balanced human resource strategies in government institutions.
