https://www.ijrss.org/index.php/ijrss/article/view/340
<p><em>This research aims to determine the political behavior of voters and the factors behind them choosing the people of the Batulanteh highlands in the 2020 Sumbawa Regency regional elections. This is interesting to research because each voter has their own reasons and interests in determining political choices so that candidates can determine strategy in campaigning to get results that are in line with the target. This study is qualitative research. The results of the research show that the tendency for political behavior to vote for the people of the Batulanteh highlands tends to be dominated by aspects of the figure and campaign issues as well as the candidate's work program. This is closely related to the real condition of Batulanteh which is still very underdeveloped and far from development aspects. The factors behind the political behavior of Batulanteh Community voters are the voter's social circle as a variable that is outside the voter but has an influence in determining individual political choices. Individual voters' decisions are strongly influenced by group cohesion processes, not purely individual decisions and actions. This creates a "threat" if an individual in a group makes a decision that is different from the group's decision, including the decision not to vote. Then there are patron client relationships, money politics, and an assessment of regional socio-economic conditions. Of the various aspects above, the most determining aspect is money politics. Meanwhile, the patron-client aspect is relative, one-off, and not literate. The existence of money politics is considered the most determinant in influencing a person's voting decisions. This is caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, making money politics easier to accept and increasing nominal vote buying. Money politics succeeded in influencing voting behavior because candidates used personal loyalist strategies to influence voters through their social environment. The use of money politics is an effort to strengthen voters' preferences for certain candidates and strengthen the confidence of regional head candidates to be able to get guaranteed voter compliance.</em></p>ArdiyansyahBonaventura NgarawulaSukardi

https://www.ijrss.org/index.php/ijrss/article/view/342
<p> <em>Based on Malang City Regional Regulation Number 4 of 2011 concerning Regional Spatial Planning in Malang City, regulations have been regulated regarding the existence, management, and availability of green open space in Malang City as an ecological balance in the Malang City area. However, this policy has only partially influenced green open space development, especially city parks. So currently, the Malang City government is managing and revitalizing several green open spaces (RTH) areas and city parks; even though they need to be improved, such funding problems hamper them. This research uses descriptive research with a qualitative approach. The research location was carried out at the Malang City Environmental Service. The data sources are primary data and secondary data. The data collection techniques used were observation, interviews, and documentation. For data analysis techniques in this research, we use techniques from Miles and Huberman, namely data collection, data condensation, data presentation, and data verification. The research results explain that budget problems have resulted in managing green open spaces limited to maintenance activities. This can be seen from indicators in policy implementation, which include the communication factor, namely the clarity of policy orders from the city government to the implementing organization, even though there has been no form of socialization to the public. The next factor is resources in the form of limited regional income and expenditure budgets, limiting the management of green open spaces. The third factor is good cooperation and coordination between related areas and regional apparatus organizations from within and outside the organization, such as the private sector or corporate social responsibility (CSR). Fourth, the bureaucratic structure, namely the organizational structure, the appropriate division of tasks and functions, and standard operational procedures have been implemented in green open space for the environmental service.</em></p>Rio Alif Aditya PutraCatur WahyudiRoos Widjajani

https://www.ijrss.org/index.php/ijrss/article/view/343
<p><em>Currently, the Indonesian government continues to strive to improve the implementation of national development so that the pace of regional development, which also includes village development, is more balanced. In this case, the regional government has full authority in determining policy, planning, implementation, and financing. Village financial management must be carried out with excellent and accountable management because the funds coming into the village are too large to be managed by a Village Government. With the existence of the Village Fund policy, the management dimension in implementing the Village Fund policy needs to be implemented well. However, the implementation of village funding policies still needs to be improved. This research aims to describe and analyze the village government's ability to manage village funds and the use of village funds in implementing village development in Plandi Village, Wonosari District, Malang Regency. This research uses qualitative methods in Plandi Village, Wonosari District, Malang Regency, East Java, Indonesia. The data collection techniques used were interviews, documentation, and observation. The data will be analyzed using qualitative methods adapted from Miles and Huberman in Saldana (2014): data collection, condensation, data presentation, and conclusion. The results of this research are the implementation of Plandi village regulation policy no. 7 concerning the Village Revenue and Expenditure Budget for Fiscal Year 2023 has been done well. The system of information transparency to village communities has also been delivered well. However, the use of the Village Fund budget can be resolved well. However, there needs to be increased strict supervision regarding the implementation of activity planning and management by the village government for the community.</em></p>Heru Iwawan AjiAgus SholahuddinTommy Harianto

https://www.ijrss.org/index.php/ijrss/article/view/344
<p> <em>The development of the business world in Indonesia, which is increasingly growing in number and has tight competitiveness, has forced company owners to try to improve the quality of their effective and efficient business performance by employing as many workers/laborers as possible with the minimum number of workers possible in the hope that workers/laborers can provide significant contribution and profit to the company. Outsourcing problems are pretty varied as its use is increasingly widespread in the business world while existing regulations still need to be improved to regulate already underway outsourcing. This research aims to determine the application of working time requirements and rest time, calculate overtime wages for outsourcing workers in Manokwari Regency, and determine legal protection for outsourcing workers in Manokwari Regency. This research uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive data approach. The research location is in Manokwari Regency, Indonesia. Data sources include primary and secondary data. The data collection techniques used were interviews and documentation. The data analysis techniques in this research are presented descriptively, namely by explaining, describing, and illustrating according to the problems related to the research.

https://www.ijrss.org/index.php/ijrss/article/view/345
<p><em>Faced with the problems and challenges of the centralized university system, the central government thought it wise to decentralize Higher Education in Cameroon. The present study looks at the various decentralization reforms put in place for the transformation of Higher Education in Cameroon and the practical measures that have been implemented to ensure this transformation. Decentralization which is widely used as an instrument of development is a process where centralized governments initiate reform agendas with the aim of transferring some powers, tasks and resources to regional governments and local authorities. Decentralization in education refers to the transfer of administrative and financial decision-making powers from central ministries of education to the regions. In recent years, the Cameroon government has become concerned about transforming the higher education landscape. This has been made possible by ensuring the decentralization of higher education institutions according to section 34(2) of 2023 higher education policy and ensuring the implementation of the e-higher education policy. A joint agreement was signed between the Government of Cameroon and The People’s Republic of China in 2015 known as “the Electronic Higher Education Project”. The implementation of this project has recorded the creation of public university institutions in all regions of the country, distribution of laptops to university students and the creation of ten (10) digital centers. However, we recommend that the various digital centers should be strengthened such that lecturers should have equitable access and inter-university relations be fostered. The Cameroon University system now has a technological environment favourable for digital transformation</em>.</p>Dr. NAYAH GAZELLE ABANG

This project aimed at empowering rural women in Fatehgarh Sahib through the acquisition of digital marketing skills. The study is based on primary and secondary sources of data collection. The present study analyses and evaluates the implementation of the project and the impact it has on the society. The findings highlight that involving stakeholders from the mobilization to follow-up processes has a long-term impact on society as a whole. Women broke the chains of their traditional roles and stepped out of their four walls to learn new skills and set an example for other women in society. By assessing the current knowledge and challenges faced by these women, a tailored training program was developed and implemented. Additionally, it explored the role of mentorship and support networks in sustaining their success.

https://www.ijrss.org/index.php/ijrss/article/view/348
<p><em>One form of public service the community needs is transportation services. However, public transportation (city transportation) tends to be abandoned by the public due to the minimal service provided by city transportation operators. Seeing the low and uneven condition of city transportation services influences students who prefer private vehicles to go to school rather than city transportation. Many underprivileged school students need the means to use private vehicles. Besides that, the high use of private vehicles, especially motorbikes, causes increasingly high traffic violations and accidents. Responding to this phenomenon, the Pasuruan Regency Government and the Pasuruan Regency Transportation Service provided free school transportation facilities. In implementing the free school transportation service, its effectiveness needs to be measured using indicators from Law No. 22 of 2009 concerning Road Traffic and Transportation and Minister of Transportation Regulation No. 29 of 2015, which consist of security, safety, comfort, affordability, and equality. , and regularity. Therefore, this research raises a problem formulation regarding the effectiveness of free school transportation services by the Pasuruan Regency Transportation Service. This type of research is descriptive qualitative, and it was conducted at Free School Transport using questionnaire, observation, and interview data collection techniques. The sampling technique used in this research was incidental. The sample used was 201 free school transportation passengers. Data analysis techniques used in this research include qualitative and descriptive data analysis. From the results of this research, it was concluded that the free school transportation service by the Pasuruan Regency Transportation Service was running well. However, improvements were needed in several aspects that were deemed to be lacking in service.</em></p>Hayu Dian ShintaAgus SholahuddinRoos Widjajani

https://www.ijrss.org/index.php/ijrss/article/view/349
<p><em>In Indonesia, the problem of poverty remains a significant concern regarding the government's efforts to improve society's social welfare. Poverty and unemployment are considered significant challenges that must be overcome immediately. The Family hope program (PKH) is one of the government's initiatives to reduce poverty and promote social protection. Even though it can be seen that the Family hope program has run as expected, it is open to obstacles/things that are not by this program. The problem related to PKH in Ngegedhawe Village is regarding the validity of PKH participant eligibility data, resulting in errors in the use of funds given to poor households for things not recommended in the Family hope program. This research aims to describe and analyze how the Family hope program policy is implemented and to describe and analyze the supporting and inhibiting factors in the process of implementing the Family hope program policy in order to improve the welfare of poor and vulnerable families based on the Minister of Social Affairs Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 10 of 2017 concerning the Family Program Hope. This research method is descriptive qualitative, focusing on communication indicators, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The results of this research show that the Family hope program in Ngegedhawe Village, Aesesa District, Nagekeo Regency is seen from the communication variable, there is socialization and training for Beneficiary Families, in the resource variable, there are many parties involved, very minimal human resources, there is staff appointment using which has been determined by the local government in the disposition variable as well as, there is a precise distribution of responsibility and coordination among work units based on the main tasks and functions of each in the bureaucratic structure variable.</em></p>Plasida Angelina Bola PatiSukardi Catur Wahyudi

https://www.ijrss.org/index.php/ijrss/article/view/350
<p>Sport has historically played a vital role in fostering positive values and fostering connections between cultures and nations globally. However, over the past 50 years, sporting events have increasingly become targets for terrorist attacks, posing significant security challenges. To explore this issue, we conducted an integrative review, viewing terrorism at sporting events as an ecosystem with various elements and interactions. Our goals were threefold: to evaluate terrorist attacks at major sporting events since the 1972 Olympics, analyzing terrorists' communication strategies, and to identify trends for detecting and preventing terrorism. Our findings contribute to unraveling the complexities surrounding the motivations of perpetrators, the vulnerabilities of the sporting environment, and the effectiveness of counterterrorism measures. In essence, it is a comprehensive examination that seeks to enhance knowledge, inform policy, and contribute to the development of strategies aimed at ensuring the safety and security of sporting events.</p>Adéla HofmannováLouis S.
