The construction of toll roads in Indonesia often causes land acquisition disputes, especially related to compensation for remaining land that is no longer productive. Although Article 65A paragraph (1) of Government Regulation No. 39 of 2023 provides the right for the community to demand compensation for the remaining land, practice on the ground shows a discrepancy between normative rights and the realization of compensation. This research uses a normative legal approach with legislative, conceptual, analytical, and case study methods, and refers to Dean G. Pruitt's Dispute Resolution Theory and Philipus M. Hadjon's Legal Protection Theory. The results of the study show that the non-litigation resolution mechanism (problem solving) is often ineffective due to the lack of education and facilitation from the authorities, so that people tend to take the path of litigation (contending) to fight for their rights. This condition reflects the weak legal protection for people affected by national strategic projects. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen legal education for the community and revise Government Regulation No. 39 of 2023 to include compensation for the remaining land that has lost its use value. This revision is important to ensure substantive justice and prevent the escalation of disputes. This research contributes to the development of a more responsive and equitable land acquisition policy, as well as encourages synergy between regulations, education, and effective dispute resolution mechanisms in the context of national infrastructure development.

This study aims to determine the implementation of the Smart Society 5.0-based digital literacy program in Ciamis Regency, implemented by the Communication and Informatics Office (Diskominfo). This program is part of the local government's digital transformation to create a smart, inclusive, and adaptive society to the development of information technology. This study uses a qualitative approach with descriptive methods, and data is obtained through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation. The analysis is conducted using Charles O. Jones's theory of public policy implementation, which includes three main components: organization, interpretation, and implementation. The results show that organizationally, Diskominfo has a supportive structure and relatively competent human resources, although there are still limitations in the mastery of digital technology among employees. From an interpretation perspective, the digital literacy strategy is implemented through public education, hoax prevention, digital content provision, and social media utilization. Meanwhile, in terms of implementation, supervision is carried out through monitoring, regular reporting, the use of digital applications, and evaluation forums. Some obstacles faced include budget limitations, the digital divide between regions, uneven technological infrastructure, and the lack of specific evaluation indicators. Nevertheless, improvement efforts continue through human resource training, optimization of digital facilities and infrastructure, and cross-sector synergy. This study concludes that the implementation of the Smart Society 5.0-based digital literacy program in Ciamis Regency has been quite successful, but still requires strengthening human resources, evaluation policies, and equitable digital access in rural areas.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the principle of public interest in the implementation of public services by the Population and Civil Registration Office (Disdukcapil) of Bekasi Regency, as well as to evaluate the extent to which the implementation of these principles contributes to efforts to realize people's welfare. The principle of public interest is one of the basic principles in the implementation of public services that emphasizes the fulfillment of basic rights of the community in a fair, fast, equitable, and accountable manner. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method, where data is collected through in-depth interviews, direct observations in the field, and documentation studies on various policies and service reports. The results of the study show that the Bekasi Regency Disdukcapil has adopted various innovations in services, such as online services, digital queue systems, the use of information technology-based applications, and increasing the transparency of service information through social media and official websites. These steps are taken to improve accessibility, efficiency, effectiveness, and community satisfaction as service recipients. However, the implementation of the principle of public interest still faces several obstacles, such as limited competent human resources (HR), uneven information technology infrastructure, and low digital literacy among certain communities, especially the elderly and people in suburban areas. This condition results in the suboptimal public service oriented to the public interest to the maximum. Therefore, continuous efforts are needed through increasing the capacity of the apparatus, the development of inclusive and adaptive public service technology, and massive education to the public to increase participation, understanding, and awareness of the available services. Thus, the public services that are carried out can really contribute to realizing the welfare of the people as a whole, equitable, and just.
