What Can Rubber Farmers and Institutions Do for Supply Chain Networks: The Political Economy Analysis
Full text linkThis research analysed the process of the supply chain of natural rubber between Tauke (collectors) and farmers and between farmers who have their rubber plantation and their tapper labour, with the institutional political economy analysis in Batanghari Regency, Jambi province. The research was descriptive research with a qualitative approach. This research used in-depth interviews with particular informants with purposive sampling and participative observation methods in certain activities. Data that had been obtained was analysed and qualitatively described. This research found that the collectors still overpowered the supply-chain process of natural rubber in the Batanghari Regency – trader, both at the village, sub-regency, and Regency levels. Other institutions, such as the auction market and crumb rubber factory, were located only in particular locations, so they were not accessible to the whole farmers in the Regency. As a result, several channels of marketing systems made different prices from what the farmers got. Institutional marketing indeed could be implemented. It has been proven by institutions such as auctions, joint venture groups, and other groups. Besides, some non–economic aspects can affect the way price parameter changes in the supply chain process, and they are; institution characteristics, marketing channel, and patronage relationship between farmers and traders. Batanghari Regency government should re-examine their plantation regulation about the marketing mechanism until the lowest level, villages. The government should have encouraged a mutual understanding among farmers so that similar efforts could occur elsewhere
Call for Asymmetric Health Decentralisation in Indonesia
Full text linkDisparities, Inequalities and inequities are still significant problems after decades of experiencing health decentralisation. This study arranges massive issues on health decentralisation to endorse improvement. The analysis offers insight into decentralisation practices in Indonesia to perform health affairs. A systematic review approach was practised to identify the Scopus database and PubMed MEDLINE from 1999 to 2020, using the terms "health" and "decentralisation." Inclusion criteria were final manuscript, full-text access, and elaborate health administration in the decentralised era. Non-journal articles and non-Indonesia research sites were applied as exclusion criteria. The study analysed 32 reports through Vosviewer tools to confirm health decentralisation trends based on word frequency mentioned in the abstract. Using Atlas.ti qualitative apps tools, the full text of the identified manuscript was analysed into the categorisation of main decentralisation issues; 1) intergovernmental relations, 2) fiscal capacity, 3) regional capacity and capability to elaborate on implementation gap, obstacles, and pros and cons of Indonesia's experience in health decentralisation. The study found that changing decentralisation patterns that mismanaged unequal distribution of health resources raises inequality issues. Second, there is conflictual relation between national and regional health administration-sandwich function caused by the unclear division of government authority. Third, the health policy necessity of a symmetrical approach to coping with regional disparities in fiscal capacity, local government capacity, and capability to provide health services, and inequity problems follow. Moreover, various specific local needs and contexts do not fit in with national health policy. In this context, an asymmetrical approach to managing health answers diverse context responses in implementing decentralisation and inequality and inequity issues
Analysis of Bureaucratic Reform Through Delayering of Government Institutions in Indonesia
Full text linkThe plan to simplify the bureaucratic structure by streamlining the echelon system is one of the strategies and breakthroughs of bureaucratic reform in Indonesia that was implemented in the first period (2010-2014) and the second period (2015-2019) of Bureaucratic Reform. However, on the other hand, a survey issued by the World Economic Forum shows that Indonesia is still experiencing some difficulties with implementing bureaucratic reforms and has not effectively used the delayering process in its implementation. The purpose of this study is to examine and analyze bureaucratic reforms through delayering of government institutions in Indonesia. This research uses a qualitative type of research with the method of literature review. Researchers have found 15 peer-reviewed journal articles within five years (2017-2021) that follow the research topic, which is then studied and analyzed to obtain comprehensive findings. The results showed that government agencies in Indonesia generally have undergone bureaucratic reforms but have not led to a specific delayering process. The Civil Service (ASN) Law passed in 2014 has also supported the spirit of administrative reform. This shows that delayering within government institutions in Indonesia can provide effective and efficient changes that occur within the governance management of government institutions in Indonesia

Comparison of Covid-19 Control Policies Between Indonesia and Australia Based on the Perspective of Policy Capacity Theory
No full textThe Covid-19 pandemic scrutinized the readiness and challenges of a country's control policies in the Asia Pacific region. This article aims to compare the policy capacity for Covid-19 control between the governments of Indonesia and Australia from the perspective of policy capacity theory. This article uses a qualitative case study method with data collection techniques for literature studies, online investigations, and data analysis. The two countries have something in common in implementing public health policies related to Covid-19, but the authors found different results. Based on the analysis using the theory of policy capacity, from the aspect of analytical capacity, it was found that the Indonesian Government was slow to respond to the Covid-19 pandemic. In contrast, the Australian Government carried out mandatory continuity of the Covid-19 policy. Then in terms of operational capacity, Indonesia still has minimum capacity and resources compared to those Australia. In terms of political capacity, the Government of Indonesia has lost public trust due to policy inconsistencies in controlling Covid-19. Meanwhile, the Australian Government can build public trust with transparent information disclosure. As a country with a large area and a high population in the face of Covid-19, it is necessary to strengthen policy capacity starting with practical policy design, leadership skills, good coordination between cross levels of government, and political legitimacy and public trus
Tourism Management Issues and its Relationship with the Sustainable Development Goals
Full text linkThe development of tourism looks brilliant because of the achievement of its economic contribution. However, current tourism management, especially in Indonesia, tends to neglect the ecological aspects of the environment and the social community. This injures Indonesia's commitment to sustainable development. This study aims to review the development of tourism in Indonesia and the impact caused by tourism development, especially tourism development in Yogyakarta. The methodology used in this study is qualitative by using secondary data such as journal articles, news, books, and government report. The study results found that tourism development in Indonesia, especially in Yogyakarta Province, only focuses on the economic sector. The tourism sector management actors focus more on making as much profit as possible without paying attention to sustainable tourism development. This results in environmental problems such as the scarcity of clean water for the community. Tourism management that does not pay attention to sustainable tourism practices also causes community conflicts against tourism actor
The Role of Malay Culture in Maintaining the Neutrality of the Civil Servants: A Case Study of Local Election in Riau, Indonesia
Full text linkLocal election contestation has caused various problems of violating the neutrality of the bureaucracy in the public domain. Multiple types of regulations have proved unable to comprehensively maintain the principle of neutrality. Thus, it is necessary to instil a bureaucratic character supported by local values so that the Civil Servants can carry out their primary duties and functions optimally. This study aims to explain the role of Malay culture in maintaining the neutrality of the bureaucracy in the local election in Riau Province. This study uses a qualitative research method that explores various phenomena of violations of the neutrality of the bureaucracy in the 2018 Riau Governor Election. Data analysis was carried out through the Nvivo 12 Plus software sourced from the online news media content and interviews with Riau Province figures. The study found several causes influencing non-neutral Civil Servants in the Riau Governor election. They are dominated by personal closeness (21.74%), primordial relationship factors (20.29%), society passivity (18.84%), weak law enforcement (11.59%), regulatory ambiguity (11.59%), lack of understanding of regulations (8.70%), and job ambition (7.25%). Then to minimize the various factors of violations that occur, Malay cultural values can be an additional guideline in dealing with various dynamics that occur in political contestation in Riau Province. Every civil servant at the local level must re-recognize and understand the important principles of Malay culture, namely principles of justice, courage, shame, hard work, self-sacrifice, and honesty
Border Development Model on the Human Development Aspects for Sustainable Community
Full text linkThe Indonesian government has implemented a border development policy. Still, it has not been able to answer the complexity of the problems that occur in border areas, especially in North Kalimantan. The development of border areas is closely related to the mission of national development, defence and state security to improve the Welfare of the people in the border areas, especially to ensure the integrity and sovereignty of the state. However, the condition of border communities in North Kalimantan is increasingly marginalized, where poverty and regional isolation trigger the high demands of local people to become border crossers to Malaysia. This study will examine the factors causing the economic backwardness of border communities in North Kalimantan, poverty and isolation of border communities, and security issues at the border. The results show that the border area needs to be closely monitored because it is a security-prone area. This makes the border development paradigm in Kaltara prioritize a security approach rather than Welfare. This causes the border areas in North Kalimantan to be scarcely touched by the dynamics of development. Therefore, border development needs to be placed in a people centre of development-oriented to people's economic development for sustainable communities through accelerating economic growth, improving the quality of human resources, and strengthening institutional capacity for border area development. Thus, border communities can enjoy prosperity by protecting and maintaining state sovereignty at the border
