Haening Ratna Sumiar, S.Psi, M.Sc., Andi Adnan, S.Sos, Rahmad Indrawan Manopo, S.A.P, M. Wahyu Agani, S.IP., Much Faisal Syahputra
This research aimed to understand the working conditions and work motivation of elderly online drivers. At least 15 elderly online drivers participated in this research. The results of our research show that all elderly online drivers still have dependents (wife and children) who need to be supported. So financial motivation is the main reason they become online drivers. Apart from that, inadequate working conditions, including control of algorithms and low wages, increase their vulnerability as elderly online drivers. However, the flexibility of time and ease of requirements to become an online drivers are advantages in this sector.

The goal of this study is to understand the effects of the bureaucratic simplification policy transfer from central to regional government, particularly in relation to Indonesia’s decision to eliminate Echelon 3 and Echelon 4.

The transition of positions was not prepared carefully, resulting in a lot of confusion regarding work mechanisms. Unequal awareness of the necessity of this policy among civil servants resulting in the minimum, or worse, no improvement in public services.

Indonesia bertujuan untuk mencapai nol emisi karbon bersih pada tahun 2060 dengan mempercepat transisi energi hijau melalui pengembangan kendaraan listrik. Namun, proses ini menghadapi tantangan seperti konflik kepentingan antara sektor yang mendukung dan menentang kendaraan listrik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi perspektif para pembuat kebijakan dalam pengembangan kendaraan listrik nasional di Indonesia dan hubungan mereka untuk memastikan pembangunan berkelanjutan yang rendah karbon. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif, termasuk wawancara dengan lebih dari 36 informan dari berbagai sektor dan analisis data sekunder. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kendaraan listrik dapat mengurangi emisi, mendiversifikasi sumber energi, menstimulasi perekonomian, mendorong kemajuan teknologi, dan mengatasi hambatan regulasi. Namun, proses kebijakan untuk transportasi darat didominasi oleh pendekatan top-down, yang mengindikasikan adanya potensi konflik kepentingan antara pemerintah dan industri. Temuan-temuan ini akan digunakan sebagai rekomendasi kebijakan bagi pemerintah pusat untuk mengembangkan sektor kendaraan listrik secara berkelanjutan.

Muyanja Ssenyonga, PhD, Muhammad Pudail, Erwin-Al- Fatih
This research analyzes the performance of the e-commerce ecosystem in Indonesia by investigating the experiences and perceptions of sellers, courier service officers and buyers. This research uses a descriptive research design. Surveys are used to collect primary data while secondary data is obtained from credible sources that are easily accessible online including websites, blogs, official reports, research papers, and other sources deemed relevant to the topic. The research results show that as components of the e-commerce ecosystem, sellers, couriers and buyers have similar problems, but there are also many areas where they show marked differences in their perceptions of opportunities, challenges and obstacles. Sellers consider access to financing, the ability to stock a variety of merchandise, the costs of transporting merchandise from suppliers to their locations and delivering it to customers, merchandise returns, and increased competition as issues they consider important to the success of their businesses. Meanwhile, buyers consider product variety, value, transportation, packaging quality, timeliness of delivery, brand, product condition during delivery, courier performance as several considerations in deciding to make an online purchase. Courier service staff, considering the financing of their operations, flexibility of working conditions, insurance, transparency of remuneration, mode of payment for delivered products (COD or prepaid), and the risk of losing merchandise before delivery to buyers are issues that influence their perception of their work. The main contributions of this study include providing information to e-commerce development policies regarding what needs to be done to improve performance; identify key stakeholders and the roles they play in the ecosystem; the obstacles and challenges they currently face, and perceptions regarding the prospects for the e-commerce space in Indonesia. This study also provides perspectives on issues of concern to the Indonesian e-commerce space including competition, transportation and logistics, as well as the role in the digital economy. The research results provide guidelines for improving Indonesian e-commerce in the future, including the need to ensure that improvements impact all components of the ecosystem, namely e-commerce platform infrastructure, sellers, couriers, buyers and regulators; involving all key policy stakeholders in formulation and implementation; transaction payment method; and a number of practices that need to be improved for the progress of e-commerce in the future.
