Big data analytics to understand guest sentiment: Time series study of tripadvisor reviews for luxury hotel in Bali
No full textPurpose: This study aims to analyze guest sentiment from TripAdvisor reviews and its relationship with room occupancy at the Raffles Bali Hotel. It seeks to explore the factors influencing guest satisfaction and how this correlates with occupancy trends using a time series approach to forecast future performance.
Research/methodology: This study employs a time series methodology, focusing on the analysis of TripAdvisor reviews from 2020 to 2024. Data were scraped, cleaned, and preprocessed using Python and Julius AI for sentiment classification. The seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) model was applied to sentiment data, whereas the SARIMAX model incorporated sentiment as an exogenous variable to predict room occupancy.
Results: The analysis revealed that most guest reviews were positive, contributing to a generally high level of guest satisfaction. Despite occasional dips in sentiment, such as in March 2024, the overall sentiment remained favorable. The time-series analysis indicates that guest sentiment has a significant positive impact on occupancy rates, with a weak negative correlation between sentiment and occupancy, suggesting fluctuating trends.
Conclusions: Guest sentiments, particularly positive reviews, play a crucial role in driving hotel occupancy. Although no direct short-term causal relationship was established through Granger Causality testing, long-term trends show that managing guest sentiment can help sustain and improve occupancy. Hotel management can leverage these insights to fine-tune service quality and marketing strategies, and align them with periods of guest satisfaction.
Limitations: The main limitation of this study is that the SARIMA models do not account for external factors, such as marketing campaigns, seasonal variations, or events that might affect guest sentiment. Additionally, the analysis did not distinguish between different guest demographics or compare performance with competing hotels.
Contribution: This research contributes to the understanding of how online guest sentiment, when analyzed through time-series models, can predict hotel performance. It introduces a novel integration of sentiment analysis with time-series forecasting, offering actionable insights for enhancing service quality and improving occupancy rates in luxury hotels

The implementation plan adopts the Plan–Do–Check–Act (PDCA) cycle to ensure continuous improvement in SS Umroh’s service quality
The influence of the e-catalogue system on fraud prevention in goods and services procurement in the regional government of Mimika Regency
No full textPurpose: This study aims to examine the influence of the e-catalogue system on fraud prevention in the procurement of goods and services within the Mimika Regency government, and to assess how fraud prevention mediates the relationship between e-catalogue implementation and procurement effectiveness.
Research/methodology: A quantitative descriptive and explanatory approach was applied using path analysis. Data were collected through structured questionnaires from 50 purposively selected procurement officers and vendors. Regression and Sobel tests were used to measure direct and indirect effects among variables: e-catalogue implementation, fraud prevention, and procurement effectiveness.
Results: The findings indicate that the implementation of the e-catalogue system has a significant positive effect on fraud prevention but does not directly affect procurement effectiveness. However, fraud prevention significantly influences procurement effectiveness and acts as a mediator in the relationship between e-catalogue use and procurement performance. The model explains 75.5% of the variance in procurement effectiveness.
Conclusions: The implementation of the e-catalogue system significantly enhances fraud prevention in public procurement, reinforcing transparency and reducing irregularities. While it does not directly impact procurement effectiveness, its influence becomes substantial when mediated through strong fraud prevention mechanisms. Thus, digital systems alone are insufficient; effective procurement depends on the integration of technology with robust oversight and institutional integrity.
Limitations: This study is limited to a single regency and relies on self-reported perceptions, which may not capture the full scope of systemic or technical constraints in e-procurement.
Contribution: This research contributes to the literature on digital governance and public procurement by highlighting the strategic role of fraud prevention as a mediating factor. It underscores the need for integrated systems that combine digital tools with robust internal control mechanisms to ensure transparent and effective procurement
Analysis of the potential and effectiveness of central market retribution revenue on the Regional Original Income (PAD) of Mimika Regency
No full textPurpose: This study aims to evaluate the potential and effectiveness of central market retribution revenue and its contribution to the Regional Original Income (PAD) of Mimika Regency. It seeks to determine whether market retribution is managed optimally and provides meaningful income to the local government.
Research/methodology: The research uses a quantitative approach with descriptive and case study methods. Data were collected through documentation, questionnaires, and interviews from 2019 to 2023. The analysis applied effectiveness ratio, contribution analysis, and market retribution potential calculation using standard regional financial formulas. The data were validated using triangulation techniques.
Results: The results show that the effectiveness of central market retribution collection in Mimika remained high, with an average effectiveness rate above 90% classified as effective. However, its contribution to total PAD remained low, averaging only 2.03% from 2019 to 2023. The study also found that the retribution potential was not fully realized due to limited trader registration, low payment compliance, and manual collection systems.
Conclusions: The study concludes that while the effectiveness of central market retribution collection in Mimika Regency was consistently categorized as effective, its contribution to the overall Regional Original Income (PAD) remains low. This gap is primarily due to unregistered traders, low compliance in payment, and inefficient manual collection systems. To maximize retribution revenue and strengthen local income, the government needs to improve data management, optimize monitoring systems, and enhance digital retribution mechanisms.
Limitations: The study is limited to a single market (Pasar Sentral Timika)and relies mainly on secondary financial data, which may not capture real-time administrative inefficiencies or informal economic factors.
Contribution: This study contributes to regional fiscal policy literature by highlighting the gap between potential and actual market retribution performance. It offers insights for local governments to improve revenue collection through digitization, trader data management, and regulatory enforcement
