Evaluation of Administrative Position Equalization Policy Into Functional Positions at the Institute of Home Government
Full text linkBureaucratic simplification is part of the national bureaucratic reform that aims to create an effective, efficient, and professional government. One form of implementation is the equalization of administrative positions into functional positions. In the Institute of Domestic Government, this policy began to be implemented in 2020 by equalizing 137 administrative positions into functional positions. However, many functional officials resulting from the equalization still have difficulty in carrying out their new duties. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the policy of equalizing administrative positions into functional positions at IPDN. In addition, this study also identifies supporting factors, obstacles, and efforts made to overcome them using a qualitative approach and the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) evaluation model developed by Stufflebeam. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed using NVivo software. The evaluation results show that this policy has a strong foundation and supports the bureaucratic reform agenda and is relevant to IPDN's objectives, but still faces challenges in the input aspect, such as limited resources, lack of training, and inadequate work guidelines. In terms of process, policy implementation is hampered by weak coordination between units, minimal monitoring and evaluation, and low employee involvement in decision making. Although in the evaluation of this policy product it has a positive impact on employee professionalism and satisfaction, the effectiveness of its implementation is still not optimal due to mismatched tasks and increasing administrative burdens
Combating Corruption in Indonesia: Digital Evidence in Criminal Prosecution
Full text linkThis study investigates the role and effectiveness of digital evidence in the criminal prosecution of corruption cases in Indonesia. With the growing prevalence of technologically mediated corruption ranging from encrypted financial transactions to manipulated digital documentation traditional legal frameworks face substantial challenges in ensuring evidentiary reliability, procedural fairness, and institutional coordination. Employing a qualitative case study approach, this research draws on in-depth interviews and documentary analysis to examine the institutional, legal, and technical dimensions of digital evidence utilization within the Indonesian justice system. Findings reveal persistent barriers, including the absence of comprehensive legal standards for digital evidence authentication, limited forensic capacity among law enforcement personnel, and fragmented inter-agency cooperation. These structural limitations not only hinder prosecutorial effectiveness but also compromise the integrity of judicial outcomes. In response, the study proposes a multi-layered framework encompassing regulatory reform, capacity-building, and procedural standardization to facilitate the lawful, secure, and effective use of digital evidence. By integrating digital forensic tools into legal practice, Indonesia’s anti-corruption enforcement can enhance prosecutorial accuracy, judicial trust, and overall institutional resilience
