<![CDATA[This study examines the role of the village government in developing village-owned enterprises within Numbing Village, Bintan Regency, utilizing an empirical qualitative design based on Ryaas Rasyid's theoretical framework of governmental functions. Primary data gathered through semi-structured interviews and field observations, combined with secondary administrative documentation from 2022 to 2026, reveal that the village administration actively regulates, dynamizes, and facilitates local economic initiatives through planning documents, deliberations, capital injections, and infrastructural support. However, empirical findings indicate that enterprise development remains constrained by limited managerial capacity, low community participation, administrative bottlenecks, and unfulfilled budgetary programs such as the 2025 food security allocation. The analysis demonstrates that while statutory mechanisms provide a legal foundation for village enterprises, operational success depends heavily on continuous capacity-building programs, transparent resource allocation, and direct field mentoring. Consequently, strengthening institutional sustainability necessitates adaptive administrative leadership, enhanced human resource readiness, and collaborative networks to transform village enterprises into effective drivers of sustainable rural economic independence and community welfare]]>

<![CDATA[This study investigates the operational realities of public participation within the municipal development planning forum (Musrenbang) in Tanjungpinang Timur Village, Bukit Bestari Subdistrict, Tanjungpinang City. Utilizing an empirical sociolegal research design, the investigation juxtaposes statutory mandates under Law Number 25 of 2004, Law Number 23 of 2014, and Minister of Home Affairs Regulation Number 86 of 2017 against field execution practices. Data were gathered through in depth interviews with eleven key informants and procedural documentation analysis, subsequently processed using the interactive qualitative model of Miles and Huberman. Findings demonstrate that participatory planning mechanisms function primarily as procedural compliance routines rather than genuine platforms for deliberative democracy. Structural reliance on neighborhood elite delegation restricts direct citizen involvement, while bureaucratic filters during municipal technical reviews systematically prioritize physical infrastructure projects over socio-economic welfare proposals. Consequently, the local planning framework reflects top down administrative dominance, reducing community input to a symbolic legitimization tool. Reforming this system requires institutionalized legal guarantees, binding participatory budgeting mechanisms, and unmediated deliberative spaces to ensure equitable regional development and meaningful grassroots empowerment. ]]>

<![CDATA[This study examines multi-actor administrative arrangements in epidemic prevention within municipal governance frameworks. Qualitative descriptive methodology was utilized through semi-structured interviews and documentary analysis involving state agencies and civil society organizations. The analytical framework established by Ansell and Gash evaluates starting conditions, facilitative leadership, and institutional design. Findings indicate that bridging resource gaps and establishing formal regulatory protocols are essential for effective cross-sectoral coordination. Furthermore, transparent accountability mechanisms and adaptive institutional structures significantly enhance service delivery for vulnerable populations. The research highlights that sustained collaboration requires balancing bureaucratic authority with community-level engagement to achieve enduring public health outcome.]]>

<![CDATA[This study examines the implementation of good governance principles in the execution of the waste collection fee policy in Tanjungpinang City during 2024, employing an empirical qualitative case study approach. Primary and secondary data were gathered through structured regional regulations, municipal archives, policy documentation, and in-depth interviews with eleven key informants comprising environmental officials, revenue administrators, legislative members, policy analysts, and local taxpayers, alongside direct field observations. The collected empirical material underwent rigorous qualitative analysis through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, with methodological validation achieved via comprehensive source triangulation. The findings indicate that while institutional accountability and informational dissemination channels have been formally established, their operational efficacy remains constrained by inconsistent supervisory reviews and limited public comprehension. Moreover, regulatory enforcement suffers from widespread non-compliance and incomplete taxpayer registration, undermining municipal revenue targets and local fiscal autonomy. The research concludes that optimizing urban environmental governance necessitates strengthening administrative oversight, enhancing interactive communication strategies, and enforcing statutory provisions consistently across all residential and commercial sectors. ]]>

<![CDATA[The rapid expansion of digital transformation has increased the demand for adaptive and legally coherent governance of passive telecommunications infrastructure, requiring regional governments to formulate regulations that are consistent with the evolving national legal framework. This study aims to analyze the authority of the Ngawi Regency Government in regulating passive telecommunications infrastructure, assess the harmonization of the Draft Regional Regulation with Indonesia's national legislation, and formulate a normative reconstruction model that strengthens legal certainty and adaptive digital governance. This research employs a non-empirical juridical (doctrinal) method using statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. Primary legal materials comprise statutes, government regulations, regional regulations, and the Draft Regional Regulation, complemented by secondary and tertiary legal materials, which are analyzed through grammatical, systematic, historical, and teleological interpretation. The findings demonstrate that the regional government's regulatory authority is constitutionally and statutorily justified, although several provisions require further harmonization with the risk-based business licensing regime, spatial planning regulations, and the distribution of governmental authority. The study proposes a regulatory reconstruction model emphasizing legislative harmonization, institutional coordination, digital governance transformation, and infrastructure-sharing mechanisms to enhance legal certainty, administrative effectiveness, and sustainable digital infrastructure governance while contributing to the development of adaptive regional regulatory theory. ]]>
