DIGITAL INEQUALITY AND DIGITAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN INDONESIA

In the era of disruption, myriads of digital entrepreneur in Indonesia still faces significant problems due to the demographical disadvantage and the lack of government policies that can overcome the problem faced. This series of problems has resulted to the existence of digital inequality. This study aimed to explains the digital inequality in Indonesia that has an impact on the inequality of opportunities and challenges for digital entrepreneurs. Qualitative approach to case studies in Indonesia. Informants were taken from 3 regions in Indonesia as well as government representatives responsible for the development of information and communication technology. Data was collected through in-depth interviews online and data was processed with the help of NVivo12. The study was conducted for 6 months. The results of this research will certainly have implications for the development of technology research, digitalization and communication as well as business. If the problem of digital inequality is resolved, digital business development in Indonesia will be more competitive. However, the biggest implication can certainly be a recommendation for information and communication technology development policies in Indonesia, such as the policy of building base transceiver station (BTS) in areas where there is no internet connectivity.

Sustainable development study of the post-disaster housing resettlement case in Yogyakarta Province, Indonesia case study: Nglepen Village and Pagerjurang Village

According to Government Regulation No. 21 of 2008, chapter 67, article 3, the Government of Indonesia promotes community involvement in the post-disaster housing recovery act. The resettlement case in Nglepen Village and Pagerjurang Village is categorized as a rapid and massive recovery based on a contractor-based strategy due to limited land availability, budgetary constraints, post-disaster emergency conditions, and the government’s responsibility to provide large numbers of sufficient housing units. In specific circumstances, the condition of the relocation houses will typically not be able to meet the needs of most residents. This study emphasized the sustainable development of the two case studies and highlighted different private residential housing types: 1) a dome-shaped reinforced structure house in Nglepen and 2) a conventional reinforced concrete structural frame house in Pagerjurang. The two different structural housing system types will affect the sustainable development of the housing condition. Field surveys and interviews were conducted in 2022–2023 to collect the primary data, and study of literacy was used to support the findings and analyzed through a descriptive qualitative method. The sustainable development in the case study relocation area is mainly influenced by aspects such as the economic sector, development priorities related to the residents’ activities and needs, and the adaptive design strategy between old and new buildings. According to the disaster management law and derivative regulations, the Government of Indonesia has sought ideal conditions for disaster-affected residents in the relocation and reconstruction processes. The study’s conclusions suggested that the government, beneficiaries, and all stakeholders must collaborate to improve post-disaster housing and settlement relocation planning and reconstruction in the future by involving the residents in the process of deciding on the location, managing the development, and creating comprehensively sustainable development guidelines for the people’s houses and its living environment.

Does The BBN KB Incentive Policy Increase Ownership Of Battery-Based Electric Vehicles? Indonesia Case Study

Indonesia's commitment by 2060 is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and realize net zero emissions. The transition of electric vehicles in the transportation sector with renewable energy is a solution to reduce emissions. However, the ownership rate of battery-based electric vehicles in Indonesia is still low. This study empirically discusses the effect of the BBN KB incentive policy designed to encourage ownership of battery-based electric vehicles in Indonesia. To determine the effect of the BBN KB incentive policy on battery-based electric vehicle ownership, a Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) panel data analysis with Pooled Ordinary Least Square (POLS) estimation technique is used using secondary data from 34 provinces in Indonesia from 2019-2022. The results of the analysis found that the BBN KB incentive policy has a significant effect on increasing ownership of electric vehicles, especially battery-based electric cars in Indonesia. The factors of the number of charging infrastructure (SPKLU), consumer awareness, fuel prices and open unemployment rates have a significant influence on ownership of battery-based electric motorized vehicles. Analysis on the island of Java explains that there is a significant effect on increasing ownership of battery-based electric car vehicles after the policy is implemented, while on non-Java island the BBN KB incentive policy shows an insignificant impact on increasing ownership of battery-based electric vehicles, especially 4-wheelers.

Investigating pre-service teachers’ perceptions on readability tools: a case study in Indonesia

<span lang="EN-US">The readability tools allow us to measure the readability of a text. The previous studies have elaborated the use of readability tools to analyze reading materials, but it is relatively sparse regarding the teaching of readability tools especially involving the second language teaching education (SLTE) program as a context. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the acceptance of pre-service English as a foreign language (EFL) teacher upon readability text tools. It covers their acceptance towards the tools, the extent to how the pre-service teachers accept the Web-FX and Readability Analyzer as readability tools and seeks for participants’ concerns using the tools.

The Barriers of Using Video Games as a Media for Teaching and Learning Purposes: A Case Study in Indonesia

The 21st century has seen the remarkable growth of the video game industry, which has surpassed other entertainment sectors in terms of financial value. The COVID-19 pandemic further emphasized the importance of video games as a means of socialization and entertainment. However, despite their potential in education, the adoption of video games as a learning media faces numerous barriers. This study explores these barriers, particularly in the context of Indonesia, a country with a burgeoning video game culture. The research uses a mixed-methods approach, including qualitative interviews and quantitative surveys with stakeholders such as parents, teachers, students, and government officials. The findings reveal several key barriers to adopting video games in formal education in Indonesia. There is an inherent mistrust of video games among Indonesians, which makes the use of video games as a learning media challenging. There is a lack of video games designed for educational purposes suitable for Indonesia's formal education system. The lack of government support for video games as learning media also becomes an issue. We suggest collaboration between local game developers and education practitioners could help design video games that balance gameplay mechanics and educational content. Successful case studies of video games in education can potentially change negative perceptions among teachers, parents, and students. In addition, government support and recognition of video games as valid learning media are essential for wider adoption in Indonesia's formal education system. Future research should focus on developing and adopting video games specifically designed for educational purposes to address these barriers effectively

Psychometric components of the social acceptance toward end-of-life vehicles policy: A case study of Indonesia

In order to support governmental implementation policy and associated interventions related to environmental policy and legislation, understanding the public's acceptability towards these policies is crucial. One significant environmental issue is the proper disposal of end-of-life vehicles (ELVs), which can cause harm to the environment. To assess social acceptability towards ELV policy, a scale was developed consisting of 49 measurement items with five latent constructs: psychological and social cognitive constructs, environmental constructs, and social support. Content validation was performed by three experts who produced an item-content validity index greater than 0.79. To test the validity and reliability of the construct items, a case study was conducted in Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi (JABODETABEK), Indonesia, with 250 respondents. Exploratory factor analysis showed that 48 items matched the validity and reliability requirements, and all constructs showed very good or excellent reliability based on Cronbach's alpha coefficient rule. The developed scale fulfills all the requirements of validity and reliability and can be used as a new instrument to measure a person's desire to implement ELV policies, especially in developing countries like Indonesia. This study can contribute to developing and implementing effective environmental policies and legislation related to ELV.

Narrative Policy Analysis: Utilization of Dimethyl Ether as an LPG Mixed Fuel (Case Study in Indonesia)

Dimethyl Ether (DME) utilization as an LPG fuel mix policy has become a polemic among several groups. The purpose of this research is to analyze the effectiveness of narrative constructed by Government, analyze the counter narrative, and formulate a strategy to strengthen the Government narrative regarding the use of DME as an LPG mixed fuel. This research uses the Narrative Policy Analysis (NPA) method. The counter narrative is compared with Government narrative to obtain a meta narrative. The level of analysis in this research is meso. The conclusions from this research are: 1) Indonesia Government continues to use DME as a mixed fuel for LPG; 2) The obstacles of policy narrative constructed by the Indonesia Government are differences viewpoints regarding the availability and use of coal as raw material for DME and differences in belief system regarding greenhouse gas emissions. The recommended strategy to strengthen the Government’s policy narrative are: 1) Comprehensive discussion by involving groups that oppose the narrative, 2) present the result of the feasibility study on greenhouse gas emmision resulting fro DME production process from coal which has been carried out by the Government by providing socialization regarding tax policy carbon as well as technical implementation of carbon economic value and controlling greenhouse gas emmision.

Legal Remedies in Civil Law for Document Forgery: a Case Study in Indonesia and Comparative Analysis with ASEAN Countries

The prevalence of deed forgery practices to benefit one party at the expense of another has been observed frequently. Consequently, the aggrieved party needs to pursue civil legal remedies to seek compensation. Indonesia adheres to the theory that legal remedies come in two forms: preventive legal measures and repressive legal measures. Legal provisions concerning deed forgery fall under preventive legal measures while filing a civil lawsuit with the Kepanjen District Court is considered a repressive legal measure. The objective of this research is to discuss civil legal remedies for deed forgery based on the verdict in Case Number 55/Pdt.G/2021/Pn.Kpn from the Kepanjen District Court, East Java, Indonesia, and compare them with other relevant laws from other ASEAN countries (i.e., Malaysia, Philippines, Brunei Darussalam, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and Myanmar). This study is conducted as there is limited discussion on deed forgery from the perspective of civil law. The research method employed is the normative legal research method, involving an examination of the Civil Code and a case study of the mentioned verdicts. The research findings indicate that the legal remedies in these verdicts fulfill the elements of legal protection theory

Implications of climate change on water quality and sanitation in climate hotspot locations: A case study in Indonesia

Abstract Southeast Asia is vulnerable to climate change with over half of its population already being impacted by drought, flooding, and rise in sea levels recently. This work reviews the current water resource challenges in Indonesia, prone to the rising impacts of climate change. A baseline assessment of Indonesia's water and drinking water resources related to its original sources is presented. In response to a growing concern over chronic challenges that undermine water supply nationwide, this study analyses drinking water safety supervision. To accomplish this, a literature survey (100 studies published during the 2000–2023 period) was performed to identify regional groundwater resources sustainability and water security issues. Among the main findings of this study, only 10% of rainfall infiltrates to the groundwater, while 70% of its rivers are heavily polluted by domestic waste. During the study period, water availability decreased to 1,200 m3/year in 2020, with only 35% of the resources being economically feasible for reuse. The water supply deficit in Indonesia was estimated to be 5.5 hm3/year with roughly 67% of the population's water demand satisfied in 2021. Although this deficit might be fulfilled with private vendors, water supply/demand forecasts in 2030 suggest that the gap could not be closed by increasing water supply.

Forecasting the potential output and growth of the manufacturing industry: a case study of Indonesia's manufacturing sector

Indonesia is currently experiencing deindustrialization, characterized by a manufacturing industrial sector growth rate lower than the overall economic growth rate. Therefore, it is necessary to encourage the development of the industrial sector to achieve sustainable development. The scenario for industrial development policy is determined based on an evaluation of the country's economic position in relation to current business cycle conditions. The evaluation is carried out through output gap analysis, which refers to the gap between actual and potential output. The research aim is to analyze output potential estimates and gaps in the Indonesian non-oil and gas processing industry sector. The methodology used in this research includes the HP Filter (Hodrick-Prescott), BP Filter (Band-Pass), and the Production Function Approach. The findings show that Indonesia's non-oil and gas processing industry experienced a slight decline below its potential between 2020 and 2021. Therefore, policymakers must consider this; in the short term, inflationary pressures are caused by a positive output gap, so the government needs to prioritize efforts to control inflation. Meanwhile, medium-term structural reforms must continue to increase potential output, including increasing labor force participation, sustainable investment for capital factors, and improving the quality of human resources and technological expertise for productivity factors. In particular, it is necessary to pay attention to the adoption of new emerging technologies.

Optimization of the Integrated Farming Resources to Increase Farmer’s Income: A Case Study in Indonesia

Purpose: Farmers of beef cattle in the Regency of Bolaang Mongondow Utara often dealt with fluctuation in the production cost of crops and cattle and restrictions of production factors, resulting in relatively lower production and the obtained income of farming. Consequently, farmers conducted six integration patterns of crops and beef cattle in the dried area. The evaluation was necessarily performed to know which farming pattern was the integrated farming pattern and cattle that can result in a maximal income for farmers.Research Method: The research was conducted in two Villages, such as Sidodadi and Sangtumbolang, District of Sangkub, Regency of Bolaang Mongondow Utara, which is the largest dried area in the Regency of Bolaang Mongondow Utara; and, farmers performed the integrated farming of crops and cattle. 80 farmers were selected by purposive sampling to obtain the required information for this research. Then, data analysis employed a linear programming model with the assisting tools of LINDO software.Results: Of six activities in the integrated farming, 3 activities of annual cultivation resulting in maximal income by Rp 57,186,127.44 were corn-corn-corn + (and cattle), onion-onion-onion + (and cattle), corn-soybean-the uncultivated field + (and cattle). The cultivation pattern of corn-corn-corn + (and cattle) was proposedly applied in the area of 0,638 hectares; for the cultivation pattern of onion-onion-onion + (and cattle), it was suggested to apply in the area of 0,439 hectares; and, the cultivation patter of corn-soybean-the uncultivated are + (and cattle) was applied in the area of 0,296 hectares.Limitation of the Research: The research was limited to the integrated pattern of corn and horticulture and beef cattle in the dried field.Originality/Value: The research has provided new information on the development standard of the integrated farming of crops and cattle in the dried area as a solution to lower agriculture productivity resulting in lower income for farmers.

Sustainable aviation fuel development: case study in Indonesia

The usage of fossil fuel in aviation contributes to 2% of CO2 emission globally. Though the industry keeps improving the efficiency of the aircraft, the increase in activity offset this improvement. The usage of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) may become a potential option in order to reduce emissions. SAF immediate compatibility and low emission become the main attraction for its usage. Indonesia in order to fulfill its NZE commitment is currently developing its own biofuel. This study’s objective is to obtain information on SAF or biofuel development in Indonesia by discussion with experts and stakeholders related to aviation and fuel development. By conducting this study it is known that the development of biofuel in Indonesia has successfully resulted in two products, J2.0 and J2.4, biofuel developed based on palm oil. Though these fuels have been certified domestically, their implementation still faces several issues, such as the sustainability aspect related to the CORSIA scheme, the production volume and availability, and potential price surge. Therefore through this study several recommendations are presented in the hope to accelerate the implementation. Although the direction of SAF development in Indonesia is through the usage of Palm oil as its main feedstock, Indonesia also has used cooking oil (UCO) and Sugarcane as potential feedstock to be explored. The development and implementation for these feedstock into SAF is necessary as a possible solution for reducing the greenhouse gas emission, therefore a support through financial, technological, and regulation means are necessary to be provided by all stakeholders.

The Effectiveness of Safeguard Measures in Elevating the Competitiveness of Domestic Industry: Case Study of Indonesia's Textile Industry

Temporary trade barriers, such as safeguards, is a measure to rescue the economy in such a way as to protect domestic industries from foreign competitors. Safeguards provide opportunities for domestic industries to make structural adjustments and reshape their business process to increase their competitiveness during the validity period. Indonesia's government has imposed safeguards for most textile sub-industries, from the upstream industry (yarn and fibres) to the downstream garment industry and other related textile industries. This paper aims to evaluate whether the application of safeguards meets its objectives in improving the competitiveness of domestic industry against its foreign competitors with a long observation period. It is found that the effectiveness of the application of safeguards was limited to rescuing the trade balance. In terms of export competitiveness, safeguards have not been effective in increasing the export competitiveness of the textile industry in the world market.

The Effect of Realized Indonesian Government Expenditures and GDP Growth on Unemployment (Case Study in Indonesia 2006-2021)

Unemployment is a problem that exists in every country, both developed and developing countries, although not all experience it, in general it is often found in developing countries, including Indonesia. In ASEAN, Indonesia is the country with the highest unemployment rate compared to other countries, namely Indonesia with an average poverty rate of 5.5 percent, Singapore with an average poverty rate of 4.3 percent, the Philippines with an average poverty rate of 3.6 percent, Malaysia has an average poverty rate of 3.3 percent, Vietnam has an average poverty rate of 1.8 percent, and Thailand has an average poverty rate of 1.1 percent. The aim of this research is to see the effect of actual government spending and GDP growth on poverty. The analysis technique used in this research is multiple linear regression analysis. Multiple linear regression analysis is a regression with a dependent variable (Y) that connects or is explained by more than one variable. It can be two variables, three and so on independent variables (X1, X2, X3 .... Xn) but still show a linear relationship diagram. The results show that an increase in district/city government expenditure throughout Indonesia will have an impact on reducing declines, as well as GDP growth will have an impact on reducing declines, but not significantly.

Evaluating the Impact of Teachers’ Personal and Professional Resources in Elementary Education on School-Based Human Resource Management: A Case Study in Indonesia

Teachers are the key to the success of the learning process, so teacher perceptions are fundamental in supporting educational goals. This study aims to evaluate the impact of teachers’ personal and professional resources in elementary education on school-based human resource management. This research method is a cross-sectional study involving 474 elementary school teachers in Magetan Regency, East Java, Indonesia. The collected data was structured by PLS Structural Equation Modeling and analyzed by SmartPLS version 3.0 application. The study results found that all aspects of teachers’ personal resources (years of service, teachers’ online learning perception, and positive mental health) affect school-based management. Meanwhile, aspects of teacher certification status and literacy learning implementation affect school-based human resource management for teachers’ professional resources. Interestingly, the status of teachers, whether public or contracted, does not affect school-based management. This study benefits the government in formulating education policies, especially in implementing the teacher certification program and improving the competence of teachers and school principals. Further research is needed on strategies to improve the quality of school-based management especially in human resource.
