The Role of the Plantation and Animal Husbandry Office in Slaughterhouse Waste Management in Kolaka District, Kolaka Regency

2025-08-30T10:55:46+00:00

This study aims to analyze the role of the Plantation and Livestock Service Office of Kolaka Regency in managing waste from slaughterhouses (RPH) in Kolaka District. Waste management at slaughterhouses is a crucial issue because it directly affects environmental cleanliness and public health in surrounding communities. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The informants consist of officials from the Plantation and Livestock Office, slaughterhouse managers, and nearby residents. Data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the Plantation and Livestock Service Office plays a role as a facilitator by providing basic facilities and training in waste management, as a regulator by implementing technical standards for hygiene and sanitation, and as a catalyst by encouraging collaboration between the private sector and the community. However, waste management implementation remains suboptimal due to limited human resources, lack of waste treatment facilities, and low awareness among business actors regarding the importance of environmental sanitation. This study recommends strengthening the capacity of technical personnel, providing integrated waste treatment facilities, and improving coordination among related institutions to ensure more effective and sustainable slaughterhouse waste management.

2025-08-30T11:08:39+00:00

This study aims to analyze the quality of service in the issuance of the Poor Certificate (Surat Keterangan Tidak Mampu/SKTM) at Watuliandu Village, Kolaka District, Kolaka Regency. SKTM is a crucial document that enables underprivileged citizens to access social assistance and government welfare programs. Using a qualitative research approach, data was collected through observations, interviews, literature reviews, and document analysis. The findings indicate that the overall quality of SKTM services is generally good and efficient, as assessed through five key service quality indicators: tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. However, several issues still hinder optimal service delivery. These include delays caused by the unavailability of the Village Head for document signing, inconsistent responsiveness among service staff, and varying degrees of empathy shown toward applicants. Based on these findings, the study recommends prompt coordination for document authorization, improvements in queue management systems, and enhanced staff training to increase professionalism and responsiveness, ultimately ensuring better service delivery for the community in need.

Public Understanding, The Role of Local Actors, and Innovation in Collaboration to Alleviate Poverty in Tolitoli City

2025-10-08T09:07:49+00:00

This study uses a qualitative-explanatory approach to examine the interaction between public understanding, the role of local actors, and innovation in collaborative poverty alleviation in Tolitoli City. This study collected data through observations, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), and a review of policy documents, supported by quantitative analysis to ensure triangulation. The results indicate that collaborative poverty alleviation in Tolitoli remains hampered by pragmatic public understanding. Collaboration is viewed more as a channel for receiving aid than as a space for participation. Other obstacles include data inconsistencies, weak socialization, and low transparency. The role of local organizations, NGOs, and community leaders is crucial but suboptimal due to weak coordination and capacity constraints. Administrative and community innovations have also not been integrated due to procedural constraints and minimal documentation. This study applies the frameworks of Mulgan, Rogers, and Ansell & Gash to recommend improvements in data governance and transparency that enhance public understanding of collaborative objectives and to strengthen formal collaboration mechanisms that empower local actors. Complementary measures include technical training for facilitators and community leaders, documentation of community best practices, and the establishment of a collaborative working platform to integrate administrative and community innovations into an adaptive and sustainable intervention model.

Gowa Regency BKPSDM Strategy in the Implementation of Personnel Management Information System (SIMPEG)

2025-10-23T10:35:02+00:00

This study aims to analyze the strategies implemented by the Gowa Regency BKPSDM in the implementation of the Personnel Management Information System (SIMPEG). The approach used is qualitative with a case study design, referring to Fred R. David's strategic management theory which includes annual goals, policies, resource allocation, and conflict management. Data was collected through interviews with key informants, direct observation, and supporting documentation. The results of the study show that the implementation of SIMPEG in Gowa Regency is effective with the achievement of annual goals through the E-Performance system. Internal policies are the guidelines for administrative control, while resource allocation is supported by competent human resources, adequate infrastructure, and a sustainable budget. Conflict management is carried out through open communication and cross-OPD coordination. However, there are still challenges to the digital literacy of senior employees and network stability. The recommendations of this research include increasing digital literacy and integrating data between agencies to strengthen the sustainability of technology-based personnel systems.

2025-10-08T09:09:44+00:00

This study aims to analyze the supervisory function by the Walasiho Village Government in the management of Danau Biru Geotourism in Walasiho Village, Wowo District, North Kolaka Regency, Southeast Sulawesi. The research method uses a qualitative descriptive approach. Preparations for research, data collection and analysis will be carried out in January-August 2025. Primary data was obtained from the results of interviews with informants, namely the Head of Marketing of the North Kolaka Tourism Office, the Head of Walasiho Village, business actors, and visitors. Observations at the research site and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with employees at the North Kolaka Tourism Office office completed the research data. The secondary data comes from articles, books, and documents from the North Kolaka Tourism Office and the Walasiho Village Government. Data analysis is in the form of data condensation, data presentation, and drawing conclusions according to the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana (2014) model. The results of the study show that the supervision carried out by the village government aims to ensure the maximum deposit of visitor levies as the village's contribution to the local original income (PAD) of North Kolaka Regency. Meanwhile, the supervisory function does not yet have standard standards, comprehensive performance indicators, gaps with ideal standards, and corrective mechanisms that are not yet systematic. In conclusion, the supervisory function of the Walasiho Village Government in the management of Danau Biru Geotourism is not ideal so that it has the potential to hinder the sustainability of tourism management.
