Local governments in Indonesia rely significantly on local tax revenues to strengthen fiscal independence and sustain regional development. Among these revenue sources, the Motor Vehicle Tax (PKB) and the Motor Vehicle Transfer Fee (BBNKB) play a vital role in shaping regional fiscal capacity. This study explores how both taxes contribute to the Regional Own-Source Revenue (PAD) of Central Java Province during the 2020–2024 period. Drawing on quantitative analysis and secondary data from the Central Java Regional Revenue Agency (Bapenda), the research assesses the effectiveness and contribution of PKB and BBNKB in supporting local fiscal performance. The results show that PKB consistently exerts a positive, meaningful influence on PAD, underscoring its central role in sustaining the province’s fiscal strength. In contrast, BBNKB demonstrates a weaker, less stable impact, primarily driven by changes in vehicle ownership trends and administrative challenges. When considered together, both tax instruments contribute to enhancing local fiscal capacity, although the reliance on PKB remains predominant. These findings underscore the importance of modernizing regional tax administration, particularly through digital innovation, transparent reporting systems, and community-based compliance strategies. Strengthening these mechanisms is essential to building a more resilient and autonomous fiscal framework, especially in the context of post-pandemic economic recovery and long-term regional development planning

This study examines how climate justice principles can be integrated into fiscal governance frameworks to enhance accountability within global climate finance. As climate change intensifies economic vulnerabilities, particularly in developing countries, the allocation and oversight of climate finance have become critical determinants of equity and resilience. Current fiscal oversight mechanisms exhibit notable progress in transparency but remain insufficient in addressing fairness, distributive justice, and participation. Through a comparative institutional analysis of global financial institutions, national budget systems, and emerging technological tools, this study identifies persistent challenges—including fragmented accountability structures, lack of standardized reporting mechanisms, and political-economy dynamics that hinder equitable funding flows. The findings emphasize that climate finance often prioritizes procedural compliance over transformative outcomes, limiting its potential to reduce structural inequalities and build adaptive capacity. The study argues that accountability frameworks must evolve beyond conventional financial auditing, incorporating social and environmental metrics that reflect the moral imperatives of climate justice. By integrating participatory governance, digital innovations, and harmonized reporting standards, fiscal systems can foster more transparent, just, and impactful climate finance. This research contributes to the discourse on climate governance by proposing accountability reforms capable of linking financial decision-making with ethical considerations, thereby advancing global efforts toward a fair and resilient climate transition.

This qualitative study examines the Public Service Performance Gap at the Ponorogo Regency Transportation Agency (Dishub) in managing high-risk traffic assets, which stems from the failure to synergise Normative Governance with operational Public Asset Management (MAP). Utilising Edwards III's Policy Implementation Model and GG/NPS principles, the core finding indicates that synergy failure is mediated by a Reactive Bureaucratic Disposition. While Dishub adheres procedurally, asset maintenance is largely reactive—performed only after damage or public complaint—not preventive. This non-responsive attitude limits accountability to reporting outputs disconnected from physical service outcomes, leading to low service quality. The proposed substantive solution is to activate Community Involvement (NPS) as a key moderator, which is currently weak, by integrating Functional Participation into the agile MAP cycle. The research recommends an e-governance system with KPIs, where transparently integrated citizen reports automatically trigger work orders, creating external public accountability pressure that forces the reactive bureaucracy to act proactively.

Cooperatives play a significant role in Indonesia’s economic system because they aim to enhance member welfare through collective ownership and cooperative principles. To maintain accountability, cooperatives are required to prepare financial reports following the Financial Accounting Standards for Entities Without Public Accountability (SAK ETAP). This study examines how SAK ETAP is applied in the financial reporting practices of Koperasi Simpan Pinjam (KSP) Mandiri Sejahtera, Comal Branch. Using a qualitative descriptive method with a case study approach, data were gathered through interviews and an analysis of the 2022 financial statements. The results indicate that although the cooperative has implemented several elements of SAK ETAP, full compliance has not been achieved due to limited human resources and the absence of an integrated reporting system. Nevertheless, the preparation of PPAP reports reflects prudence in managing credit risk and highlights the need for digital systems and improved accounting skills to strengthen transparent and accountable financial management.

This study explores the implementation of sustainable accounting practices in the management of Pasir Panjang coastal tourism by examining how local cultural values and community personality influence sustainability-driven decisions. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through interviews, field observations, and documentation analysis involving local community members, tourism actors, and village government representatives. The findings indicate that sustainable accounting is not only understood as an administrative or financial reporting system, but also as a framework shaped by cultural norms, collective identity, and local wisdom. Elements such as communal responsibility, environmental awareness, and traditional stewardship practices significantly contribute to how sustainability initiatives are planned, recorded, and evaluated. Furthermore, the personality traits of the local community—such as openness, cooperation, and strong social cohesion—play an essential role in ensuring inclusive participation and shared accountability. This study concludes that integrating cultural values and community character enhances the effectiveness of sustainable accounting practices in coastal tourism management and encourages long-term environmental and socio-economic resilience.

The management of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in the banking sector holds strategic importance in strengthening public trust, supporting sustainable development, and ensuring that the distribution of CSR funds aligns with principles of good governance. However, CSR implementation among Indonesian banks continues to face fundamental issues, including limited transparency, inconsistent reporting standards, and weak supervisory mechanisms. This study aims to analyze the synergy between the Financial Services Authority (OJK) and the banking industry in establishing transparent and accountable CSR fund management. Using a normative legal approach combined with institutional analysis, the findings reveal that although OJK has issued sustainable finance regulations such as POJK No. 51/POJK.03/2017, these regulations have not fully ensured the integrity and accountability of CSR distribution. Strengthening reporting standards, ensuring independent audits, and integrating a digital CSR reporting system are essential to enhance oversight. This study proposes a regulatory–institutional synergy model between OJK and the banking sector to build CSR governance that is transparent, participatory, and impact-oriented.

This study explores the conceptual integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting and data analytics within the framework of sustainable digital accounting, with Industry 5.0 acting as a moderating paradigm. As organizations increasingly face demands for transparency, ethical governance, and sustainable operations, the limitations of traditional accounting systems have become evident. ESG reporting plays a crucial role in communicating non-financial performance and guiding strategic decisions aligned with stakeholder interests and regulatory expectations. However, the effectiveness of ESG disclosures is often hindered by fragmented data structures, inconsistent standards, and insufficient technological support. Data analytics, when integrated into ESG processes, enhances the precision, timeliness, and reliability of sustainability disclosures through predictive modeling, anomaly detection, and real time performance monitoring. Yet, despite its potential, the adoption of data analytics in accounting remains limited and under-theorized. Industry 5.0 introduces a human centric approach to technological transformation, emphasizing ethical innovation, inclusivity, and resilience. By positioning Industry 5.0 as a contextual and moderating framework, this study offers a novel perspective on how ESG and data analytics can synergize to create ethically aligned, future-ready accounting systems. Employing a systematic literature review, the research develops a conceptual model linking ESG, data analytics, and Industry 5.0, providing insights for academics, practitioners, and policymakers aiming to embed sustainability into digital accounting systems. The findings underscore the importance of aligning digital tools with ethical and societal values to advance accountable and sustainable business practices..    

The phenomenonoccurring in various universities shows an increase in cases of academic fraud, such as cheating, plagiarism, research data manipulation, and misuse of technology in the learning process. This behavior not only undermines academic integrity, but also has the potential tocreate a mindset of cheating that carries over into the workplace. Integrityis a fundamental value that forms the moral foundation of every aspect oflife, both in education and in the workplace. In the context of higher education, students are expected not only to excel academically,but also to possess honesty, responsibility, and strong professional ethics.Accountants are future professionals who will be directly involved inthe management and financial reporting of organizations. This profession demandsa very high level of honesty and integrity, because the accuracy andreliability of financial reports form the basis for business and public decision-making. However, in practice, there are many cases of accounting fraud, such as budget mark-ups, financial statement manipulation, creative accounting, and data misstatement, which occur due to weak values of integrity and moral responsibilityamong individuals. If dishonest behavior has already been established during college—for example, in the form of cheating, manipulating assignment data, or falsifying lab reports—then the risk of bringing similar habits into the workplace will be even higher. Integrity is a core competency (core comp) that determines a person's quality as an organizational asset
