This study examines the role of local governments in improving the quality of public services as part of an initiative to achieve responsive governance that prioritizes the public interest. This study departs from the limitations of previous research, which tends to focus on the technical aspects of service quality, while the strategic role of local governments as the primary actors in improving the quality of public services remains underexplored. The purpose of this study is to analyze the role of local governments in improving the quality of public services and identify factors influencing the optimization of this role. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach through a literature review analyzing various secondary sources such as scientific books, national and international journals, regulations, and reports from relevant official institutions. The study findings indicate that local governments play a significant role in improving the quality of public services through three main dimensions: a community-focused service orientation, technology-based service innovation, and strengthening inclusive and collaborative service management. The integration of these three dimensions supports more efficient, transparent, and responsive public services to community needs. This research provides a conceptual contribution to the field of public administration, emphasizing the importance of strengthening the role of local governments as a key factor in sustainably improving the quality of public services.

This study aims to analyze loan administration practices and the causes of non-performing loans from the perspective of Asymmetric Information Theory at KSP Kopdit Obor Mas Pasar Alok Branch. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach using observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. The results indicate that loan administration has not been optimally implemented, particularly in documentation completeness, creditworthiness analysis, and post-disbursement monitoring. From the asymmetric information perspective, adverse selection and moral hazard were identified as major contributors to non-performing loans. Limited borrower information, misuse of loan funds, and weak supervision were the dominant factors affecting credit quality. The study concludes that improving loan administration systems and strengthening monitoring mechanisms can reduce asymmetric information impacts and minimize non-performing loans in cooperatives.

Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) remain one of the public health problems that contribute significantly to high morbidity rates, especially among vulnerable groups. Community health centers, as primary health care facilities, play an important role in recording, reporting, and monitoring cases through surveillance systems. This study aims to determine the description of ARI cases and evaluate the implementation of the ARI surveillance system at the Perumnas Community Health Center from August to October 2025. This study uses a descriptive evaluative approach. The surveillance system evaluation is based on the 5M components, namely man, money, material, method, and machine. Data were obtained through a review of surveillance documents and observation of the implementation of the ARI case recording and reporting system at the health center. The results of the study indicate that ARI is still one of the most common diseases found in the Perumnas Community Health Center's working area. The implementation of ARI surveillance is generally running well, but there are still several obstacles in terms of human resources, supporting facilities, data completeness, and optimization of reporting methods. These conditions affect the quality of the epidemiological information produced. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the surveillance system by increasing the capacity of officers, providing supporting facilities, and improving recording and reporting mechanisms so that the implementation of ARI surveillance is more effective and supports disease control efforts.

This study is developed as a conceptual paper that analyzes halal marketing practices through a maqashid shariah lens across three operational domains: digital marketing, customer service and business administration. The paper is motivated by recent developments in the global halal economy, the stronger linkage between halal assurance, governance quality and digital transparency, and Indonesia's policy acceleration toward mandatory halal implementation in October 2026. Methodologically, the study uses a structured literature review and conceptual synthesis of international reputable journals and relevant Indonesian journals, complemented by policy and industry reports. The analysis maps prior findings into maqashid dimensions (protection of religion, life, intellect, wealth and dignity) and translates them into practical indicators of honesty, transparency, fairness, consumer protection and procedural reliability. The paper argues that credible halal marketing depends not only on promotional messages but also on service conduct and disciplined administrative governance. It contributes a conceptual framework and practical propositions for evaluating halal marketing practices in MSMEs and service businesses.

Industrial development in Indonesia has significantly contributed to national economic growth; however, it also poses potential risks of environmental pollution when corporate waste management is not conducted properly. Environmental pollution resulting from corporate waste activities may cause harm to surrounding communities, including health problems, ecosystem degradation, as well as material and immaterial losses. In this context, the class action mechanism serves as a relevant legal instrument to collectively advocate for the rights of affected communities. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the class action mechanism in environmental pollution cases based on Decision Number 29/Pdt.G/2023/PN.Skh and to evaluate its effectiveness in providing legal protection and restoring the rights of affected communities. This research employs normative legal research using statute approach, case approach, and conceptual approach. The findings indicate that the class action mechanism in the aforementioned decision fulfilled the requirements of numerosity, commonality, typicality, and adequacy of representation as regulated under Supreme Court Regulation (PERMA) Number 1 of 2002. Procedurally, the class action proved effective in enhancing access to justice, ensuring judicial efficiency, and strengthening the protection of the constitutional right to a good and healthy environment. However, its substantive effectiveness remains dependent on the fulfillment of formal requirements, the quality of evidence presented, and the consistent application of environmental law principles by judges. Therefore, the class action mechanism constitutes an important instrument in environmental law enforcement, yet it requires consistent regulatory support and judicial practice to achieve optimal ecological justice.

This study aims to analyze the influence of participatory leadership, supportive organizational culture, and work-life balance on employee job satisfaction. The research method employs a quantitative approach, using SEM-PLS analysis of data collected from PKWT employees at PT Graha Satu Tiga Tujuh. The results show that participatory leadership and supportive organizational culture have a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction, while work-life balance has no proven effect. Furthermore, work-life balance does not mediate the relationship between leadership and organizational culture with job satisfaction. These findings confirm that internal organizational factors, particularly leadership quality and work culture, have a greater impact on employee satisfaction than work-life balance. This study provides practical contributions to human resource management by offering strategies to enhance job satisfaction by strengthening leadership and organizational culture.

This study aims to analyze the influence of economic growth, population, and education on poverty in Sidoarjo Regency during the period 2014–2023, motivated by the persistently high poverty rate despite the region experiencing rapid economic growth and industrial development. Using secondary data from BPS and analyzed quantitatively through multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS, this study found that the three variables simultaneously have a significant effect on poverty, while partially, education is the most effective factor in reducing poverty compared to economic growth and population, which have a negative but not significant effect. These findings highlight the importance of equitable distribution and improvement in the quality of education as a primary strategy for poverty alleviation, as well as the need for more inclusive economic policies. Further research is recommended to include other variables such as income inequality, unemployment, and the quality of infrastructure to make the analysis of poverty determinants more comprehensive

Low productivity and high sick leave in the weaving division of PT XYZ in Yogyakarta are caused by excessive physical and mental workload on Shuttle Loom Unit 2 operators. The productivity of the weaving division of PT XYZ was recorded at only 61.96% (target 75%) with sick leave of 4.17%, indicating operator fatigue. This study measured physical workload using the Cardiovascular Load (CVL) method based on heart rate and mental workload using NASA-TLX, and analyzed the correlation with age and length of service. The results showed a moderate physical workload category (40% light CVL <30, 60% moderate 30-60) at a temperature of 30.5°C, and high-very high mental workload (45% high 50-79, 55% very high ≥80, average EF 79.3) due to strict quality targets (0.5% defects). There is a correlation between CVL and NASA-TLX with age. Recommendations include reducing the daily production target from 100 to 85-88 yards, optimizing ergonomics, and training to reduce EF to 65 and defects to 0.3, to increase effective productivity.

This study examines coordination between the Ministry of Religious Affairs and the Ministry of Education Culture Research and Technology in managing the Madrasah Education Management Information System EMIS. The main issue is data asynchrony that affects the accuracy of national education planning including budget allocation and the distribution of educational social assistance. This study uses Interorganizational Coordination Theory by B Guy Peters and Collaborative Governance by Ansell and Gash. A qualitative approach was used to analyze the data integration process and bureaucratic obstacles in inter institutional relations. The findings show that coordination between the two ministries influences the accuracy of national education planning. However the coordination is still dominated by a formal administrative approach and has not yet achieved substantive collaboration. The main obstacles include sectoral ego low interoperability of information systems and weak data sharing mechanisms. These conditions lead to data redundancy and information gaps that reduce the quality of policy making. Strengthening coordination through facilitative leadership digital integration across ministries and system automation based on interoperability is needed to improve the accuracy of national education planning.

The low interest in reading and learning outcomes of students in Indonesia poses a significant challenge in the education sector. The Kampus Mengajar program has emerged as one of the solutions to enhance literacy and the quality of learning in schools. This article aims to analyze the impact of literacy activities initiated through the Kampus Mengajar program on student learning outcomes using a literature review approach. The research uses a qualitative method in the form of a literature review that examines various relevant sources published between 2020 and 2026. The study's findings indicate that structured literacy activities, such as reading for 15 minutes before lessons, have a significant impact on the improvement of students' cognitive, affective, and psychomotor skills. Literacy is not limited to reading and writing skills but also serves as a crucial foundation for developing critical thinking abilities, which are directly correlated with students' academic performance. Therefore, the Kampus Mengajar program can be an important driver to enhance reading interest and the quality of learning, as well as shape a more critical and high-achieving generation in the future.

The PESIAR Program (Petakan, Sisir, Advokasi, dan Registrasi Map, Screen, Advocate, and Register) is an operational instrument of BPJS Kesehatan designed to accelerate the achievement of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) by increasing National Health Insurance (JKN) membership at the local level. However, the effectiveness of this program’s implementation is strongly determined by the institutional capacity and configuration that support it. This article aims to reposition institutional determination not only as a factor influencing program effectiveness, but as a model of administrative governance in achieving UHC. The study uses a mixed methods approach with a sequential explanatory design. Quantitative data were obtained through a survey of PESIAR Agents in Semarang City, while qualitative data were collected through open-ended questionnaires and interviews. The results show a strong, positive relationship between institutional determination and the effectiveness of the PESIAR Program. Qualitative findings further clarify that issues of program effectiveness largely originate from institutional capacity, the quality of cross-sector coordination, and the role of PESIAR Agents as field implementers. This study concludes that institutional determination deserves to be positioned as an administrative governance model for the PESIAR Program in promoting the achievement of UHC at the local level.

Dysmenorrhea or menstrual pain, is a common health issue among adolescent girls, often disrupting daily activities and quality of life. Effective management of dysmenorrhea is strongly influenced by the level of knowledge and attitudes of adolescent girls toward this condition. This literature review aims to analyze the relationship between knowledge and attitudes regarding the management of menstrual pain among adolescent girls. Various studies indicate that while adequate knowledge about dysmenorrhea is important, the correlation between knowledge and attitude is not always significant. Some research finds that good knowledge does not necessarily translate into a positive attitude towards pain management, as other factors such as stress, anxiety, and reluctance to take action also play a role. However, there are studies that show a positive relationship between increased knowledge and better attitudes toward dysmenorrhea management,  although the strength of this association is very weak. Most adolescents tend to choose non-pharmacological management, such as rest and warm compresses, but many still ignore menstrual pain due to a lack of knowledge and information. Therefore, educational interventions and counseling in schools are essential to improve knowledge and foster positive attitudes in managing dysmenorrhea among adolescent girls. These efforts are expected to help adolescent girls manage menstrual pain more effectively and enhance their quality of life.
