Salary Provision Policy 13 for Non-State Civil Apparatus Employees
The provision of the thirteenth salary is mandated by the President of the Republic of Indonesia through Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 14 of 2024 concerning the Provision of Religious Holiday Allowances and the Thirteenth Salary for State Officials, Retirees, Pension Beneficiaries, and Allowance Recipients in 2024. This policy aims to maintain public purchasing power and assist in fulfilling the family needs of government employees. However, employees who are not part of the State Civil Service at the Regional Public Hospital of West Nusa Tenggara Province are not included as recipients of the thirteenth salary based on the provisions stipulated in Government Regulations and Governor Regulations. On the other hand, these non-civil service employees perform duties and service functions similar to those of civil servants, which has led to demands for the provision of the thirteenth salary. This study aims to analyze the policy on the provision of the thirteenth salary for non-civil service employees at the Regional Public Hospital of West Nusa Tenggara Province and to identify the obstacles encountered in its implementation. The research employs a normative method with a statutory approach through the analysis of regulations related to the provision of the thirteenth salary and financial management policies within the Regional Public Service Agency system. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of the thirteenth salary for non-civil service employees still faces several major challenges, including the absence of specific regulations governing the provision of the thirteenth salary for non-civil service employees, the lack of budget allocation in the Business and Budget Plan, and the relatively large number of non-civil service employees, which creates a financial burden for the hospital. Therefore, internal regulations are required as a legal basis, along with adequate budget planning, to support the implementation of this policy.

Governance Under Pressure: The Capacity of States to Manage Global Social and Economic Crises
States today face overlapping global crises, including financial instability, pandemics, climate change, migration, geopolitical conflict, and widening inequality. These crises no longer operate in isolation but interact in what scholars describe as a polycrisis. This article analyzes how state capacity determines the ability to manage such compounded socio-economic shocks. Using a systematic literature review covering 2006–2025 and comparative analysis across political regimes and regions, the study identifies key determinants of crisis governance. Findings indicate that state capacity is not merely coercive strength but a multidimensional construct encompassing institutional quality, democratic legitimacy, multilevel coordination, and integration within global governance frameworks. Democratic regimes tend to demonstrate stronger long-term resilience, although authoritarian systems may respond more rapidly in early crisis stages. Welfare states show adaptive variation under globalization pressures, while fragile states face compounded challenges from corruption, sanctions, and external conditionalities. Multilevel and hybrid governance arrangements emerge as critical mechanisms for navigating polycrisis conditions. However, political short-termism, bureaucratic decline due to sanctions, and fragmentation of international organizations constrain effective and equitable crisis management. The article concludes that anticipatory and cooperative governance, supported by robust domestic institutions and coordinated global frameworks, is essential for sustaining socio-economic stability under conditions of systemic global disruption.

Post-Truth Politics: The Challenge of Disinformation to the Quality of Electoral Democracy
The phenomenon of post-truth politics has shifted the epistemic foundations of electoral democracy by placing emotions and identity above empirical facts. In the context of elections, digital disinformation not only influences individual political preferences but also erodes the legitimacy of democratic institutions and public trust in electoral outcomes. This article aims to analyze the mechanisms of disinformation, cross-national patterns, its impact on the quality of democracy, and policy responses during the 2021–2025 period. The study employs a Systematic Literature Review approach of 18 reputable international journal articles. The findings indicate that disinformation operates through a reinforcement effect, polarizing perceptions of electoral integrity, and is further exacerbated by the emergence of AI-generated content and deepfakes that create an epistemic crisis. Comparative analysis of the United States, Brazil, Indonesia, and the European Union reveals patterns of delegitimization, identity polarization, and manipulation of strategic issues such as migration and religion. Mitigation efforts include digital literacy initiatives, algorithmic transparency, and the strengthening of journalism, although their effectiveness is constrained by partisan polarization. This article argues that disinformation in the post-truth era constitutes a systemic threat to electoral democracy and requires a multidimensional and sustainable response.

The Resilience of Local Governments in Facing Multidimensional Crises: A Political and Public Policy Perspective
Local governments currently operate within a context of polycrisis characterized by interconnected pandemics, economic instability, climate change, conflict, and migration. This condition requires redefining resilience beyond mere survival toward adaptive and transformative capacities in governance and public policy. This article aims to analyze the main dimensions of local government resilience from political and public policy perspectives using a Systematic Literature Review of studies published between 2021 and 2025. The findings indicate that local resilience rests on four primary pillars: robust institutional capacity, enabling multi-level governance (MLG) and decentralization arrangements, digital transformation and managerial innovation, and social capital with collaborative leadership. Resilience is also shaped by political legitimacy, policy learning, and the availability of internal resources. The study concludes that resilience is not merely an administrative response but an evolutionary process involving learning, cross-sector coordination, and governance transformation. Policy implications highlight the importance of fiscal decentralization, bureaucratic reform, digital public service modernization, and community collaboration in managing multidimensional crises at the local level.

From Governance to Poweranance: The Politics of Power in Public Administration
This study examines public administration beyond the conventional lens of neutral governance by introducing the concept of poweranance, which emphasizes the role of power relations in shaping administrative practice. While governance frameworks highlight accountability, coordination, and institutional order, empirical evidence shows that administrative decisions are deeply influenced by political control, bargaining, and resource asymmetries among actors. A qualitative interpretive method was employed through document analysis of policy and regulatory texts and semi structured interviews with public administration practitioners across different governance contexts. The findings reveal that hierarchical accountability, performance management, collaborative networks, expert advice, and regulatory compliance are consistently mediated by power dynamics rather than purely procedural considerations. Administrative discretion, negotiation, and dominance emerge as key mechanisms through which governance principles are enacted. The discussion demonstrates that governance operates within political environments where actors strategically influence administrative outcomes. The study concludes that public administration is better understood as poweranance, where governance structures function within dynamic configurations of power. Recognizing this perspective provides a more realistic understanding of how policies and public services are produced in practice.

The Feminization Of Local Politics: Practices, Representation, And Resistance In The Masculine Arena Of Village Government
This study aims to analyze the practice of political feminization in village government, focusing on the role of women in male-dominated local politics and the challenges they face in confronting patriarchal structures. Although women's participation in village governance is increasing, entrenched patriarchal structures remain limited space for women to make significant political decisions. In this context, political feminization contributes to a shift in policy priorities and a more inclusive and collaborative leadership style. However, the main challenge women face are the cultural and systemic barriers that limit their access to power. Although gender quotas and affirmative policies provide opportunities for women, their effectiveness is highly dependent on women's ability to leverage their positions in local political structures. The study concludes that to achieve deeper gender equality, structural changes in social norms are needed, as well as increased educational and economic access for women. The feminization of local politics is not only about numerical representation, but also about empowering women in the process of making policies that are more responsive to their needs.

Post-Disaster Rehabilitation And Reconstruction Policy Study: Between Public Interest And Project Politics
As an archipelagic nation, Indonesia is highly vulnerable to natural disasters, both geological and hydrometeorological, making the need for post-disaster policies particularly urgent. Post-disaster rehabilitation and reconstruction go beyond rebuilding physical infrastructure; they also encompass social, economic, and psychological recovery, as well as aspects of sustainable development. However, in practice, post-disaster policies are often mired in project-based political interests, with funding allocation, aid distribution, and prioritization of recovery areas influenced by electoral agendas and political patronage. This shifts policy orientation from meeting the needs of survivors to elite legitimacy, potentially leading to unfair distribution of benefits and marginalization of vulnerable groups. Furthermore, private sector involvement in the reconstruction process is often tainted by short-term economic interests that neglect the humanitarian dimension. Bureaucratic fragmentation, overlapping authority, and weak coordination mechanisms further undermine the effectiveness of recovery policies. These conditions demonstrate that post-disaster policies are not a neutral space, but rather a political arena rife with competing interests. Therefore, principles of good governance such as transparency, accountability, public participation, and independent oversight must be foundational to implementation. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature review method to examine the dynamics of project politics and public interest in post-disaster policies. The literature analysis allows for the identification of patterns of policy distortion as well as opportunities for governance reform. Thus, this study seeks to provide theoretical and practical contributions to formulating more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable post-disaster policies.

Evaluating Industrial Policy Implementation In Indonesia: A Case Study of Law No. 3/2014 on Industry
This study aims to critically analyze and evaluate the implementation of Indonesia’s Law No. 3 of 2014 on Industry as a strategic policy instrument for national industrial development. Utilizing a qualitative research design with a document analysis method, the study assesses the law's effectiveness, efficiency, relevance, and sustainability in addressing pressing structural challenges particularly early deindustrialization, declining manufacturing competitiveness, and the persistently low added value of domestic industrial output. Although Law No. 3 of 2014 provides a robust normative and legal framework, its practical implementation has encountered significant constraints. These include weak inter-agency coordination, limited institutional capacity at the subnational level, insufficient policy alignment across sectors, and minimal integration of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) into the national industrial ecosystem. Using Dunn’s (2003) public policy evaluation framework, the study finds that the law has yet to foster an inclusive, adaptive, and innovation-driven industrial environment. Moreover, policy outcomes remain fragmented and inconsistent with long-term industrialization goals. To address these gaps, the study recommends enhancing policy implementation through stronger cross-sectoral integration, capacity-building for regional industrial governance, increased investment in research and development, and the protection of strategic industries vital to national resilience. These efforts are essential to lift Indonesia out of the deindustrialization trap and position it toward achieving sustainable, high-value industrial transformation.

The Development of Democracy in Developing Countries: A Literature Review
This study aims to examine the development of democracy in developing countries through a qualitative approach based on literature. Democracy in developing countries exhibits diverse dynamics, ranging from institutional progress to decline due to covert authoritarian practices. By reviewing various scientific sources such as academic journals, international agency reports, and reference books, this study presents a thematic synthesis of factors influencing the democratization process. The results indicate that the weakness of political institutions, elite dominance, and socio-economic inequality are the main obstacles to democratic consolidation. However, there is also a significant role for non-state actors such as civil society organizations and the media in promoting political openness and accountability. Furthermore, this study emphasizes the importance of a contextual, non-universal theoretical approach in understanding democratic practices in developing countries. These findings reinforce the urgency of developing a more inclusive, adaptive, and local-reality-based democratic framework. Thus, this literature study not only provides theoretical contributions to the realm of political science and governance but can also serve as a reference for formulating more sustainable policies to strengthen democracy in developing countries.

Politics and Psychology of Fear: Threat Narratives in State Security Policy
This study examines how the politics of fear is shaped and exploited through threat narratives in state security policy. Using a qualitative approach and literature study methods, this study analyzes the dynamics of discourse used by the state to legitimize repressive security measures. Threat narratives, discursively constructed by state actors and amplified by the media, play a central role in shaping public perceptions of imminent danger. The resulting collective fear allows the state to justify enacting extraordinary policies, even when there is no real, proportionate threat. Within the framework of securitization and state of exception theories, security policy is interpreted as a response to politically defined, rather than objective, threats. As a result, the space for public participation is narrowed, civil rights are diminished, and the rule of law is threatened. This study emphasizes that security cannot be built on manipulative constructs of fear but must be grounded in transparency, justice, and respect for democratic principles. Critique of the politics of fear is crucial to ensure that security policy does not deviate from the framework of a democratic and civilized state based on the rule of law.

Questioning the Political Strategies of Sleman DPRD Candidates: A Study of the Failure of Golkar Party Female Legislative Candidates in the 2024 Elections
This study analyzes the failure of political strategies used by female candidates from the Golkar Party in the 2024 Sleman Regency DPRD elections, focusing on cultural and structural challenges that impeded their success. The research method employed is a qualitative descriptive literature study, with data collected through primary and secondary sources. This study focuses on new female candidates, particularly those from the Golkar Party, and examines the reasons behind their failure to secure a seat in the legislative body. The findings highlight the ineffectiveness of campaign strategies, such as door-to-door visits and traditional media use, which failed to resonate with female voters' specific concerns. Cultural barriers, including deeply rooted patriarchal norms and a lack of resources such as funding and media access, further limited their campaign impact. This study underscores the need for voter empowerment through political education, particularly for women, to highlight the importance of electing representatives who can effectively address gender-specific issues. In conclusion, this research offers insights into the challenges faced by female candidates and provides recommendations for improving political strategies that promote female political participation and representation

Decentralization and Effectiveness of Regional Government: Literature Review on the Implementation of Regional Autonomy in Indonesia
This study aims to examine the relationship between decentralization and the effectiveness of regional government in Indonesia through a qualitative approach with a literature study method. Decentralization implemented after the reform through regional autonomy policies has given broad authority to regional governments to regulate their own household affairs. Although it is expected to improve the quality of public services and locally-based development, its implementation shows mixed results. This study analyzes various scientific sources in the form of journals, academic books, policy reports, and regulations to identify patterns of success and challenges in the implementation of regional autonomy. The results of the study show that the effectiveness of regional government is greatly influenced by institutional capacity, human resource competence, regional head leadership, community participation, and the ongoing monitoring system. Some regions are able to utilize autonomy to innovate governance, but most still face structural and cultural obstacles. In addition, fiscal dependence on the central government and weak coordination between institutions are obstacles to achieving effectiveness. Therefore, strengthening regional capacity and implementing an asymmetric decentralization model are important to realize effective, accountable, and participatory governance in the era of regional autonomy.
Dynamics of Democracy in Indonesia: A Literature Review of the Role of Political Parties in Democratic Consolidation
This study aims to analyze the role of political parties in the consolidation of democracy in Indonesia through a qualitative approach with a literature study method. The political transition after the 1998 reform has opened up a more open democratic space, but has not yet fully produced substantive democracy. Political parties as the main pillars of democracy should carry out the functions of interest aggregation, political education, cadre formation, and supervision of the government. However, various literatures show that political parties in Indonesia still face various challenges, such as oligarchic dominance, weak internal democracy, low quality of cadre recruitment, and a tendency towards political pragmatism. This study uses secondary data from journal articles, academic books, and reports from credible institutions which are systematically analyzed using content analysis techniques. The results of the study show that political parties have not been able to become effective agents of democratic consolidation due to the lack of party institutionalization and low political literacy of the community. Therefore, a comprehensive reform of the party system is needed through institutional strengthening, internal transparency, and encouragement of more inclusive political participation. This study provides a conceptual understanding of the institutional obstacles to Indonesia's democratization and recommends strategic steps to realize democracy that is not only procedural, but also substantive and sustaina

Kampung Madani As An Effort To Alleviate Poverty In Bangkingan Sub-District Surabaya
The study's goal was to assess how well the Kampung Madani programme worked to reduce poverty. The study was conducted in Surabaya's Bangkingan Village. Interviews and document data utilising qualitative research and interactive analysis were the methods utilised to obtain the data. Condensing data, presenting data, and generating conclusions were the three primary steps of the interactive analytic approach that was employed. According to this report, the Kampung Madani program's successful reduction of severe poverty to zero was made possible by the active involvement of the community and cooperation with the commercial sector through corporate social responsibility. An inclusive and long-lasting empowerment paradigm was produced by the cooperation of the public, corporate, and governmental sectors. The Kampung Madani Program's research in Bangkingan Village showed that strong community involvement and cooperation with the commercial sector through corporate social responsibility (CSR) were key to the program's success in eradicating severe poverty. An inclusive and long-lasting empowerment paradigm was developed as a result of the government, community, and commercial sector working together. Other areas may use its execution as a model when creating comparable initiatives to effectively reduce poverty.

Challenges Of Post-Pandemic Government Management: Between Centralization And Regional Autonomy
The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the tension between policy centralization and regional autonomy, changing the dynamics of governance in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the challenges faced by regional governments in managing the pandemic, and its impact on central-regional relations in the context of post-pandemic governance. The findings show that policy centralization at the peak of the pandemic required close coordination between governments, but limited the flexibility of regional governments to adjust policies to local conditions. Despite the decline in regional revenues due to the pandemic, several regions showed high adaptability, such as the implementation of digital-based public service systems. In the post-pandemic era, there is an opportunity to reform central-regional relations, by prioritizing a hybrid model that provides more flexibility to regions while maintaining central oversight. This study suggests the need for broader fiscal decentralization, capacity building of regional institutions, and development of more efficient coordination systems to address future challenges. This study provides insights into more inclusive and responsive governance in the post-pandemic era.

The Draft Law on the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) and the Dynamics of Civil-Military Relations: Implications for Democracy and Civilian Supremacy in Indonesia
This research examines the dynamics of civil-military relations in post-Reform Indonesia, with a focus on the latest Draft Law (RUU) on TNI, which has the potential to threaten the principle of civilian supremacy and expand the role of the military in the civilian sphere. Through a qualitative approach and document study method, this research analyzes various provisions in the TNI Bill and compares them with similar regulations in countries that have undergone civil-military relations reform, such as Turkey, Chile and Thailand. The results show that although the bill aims to strengthen the TNI in the face of national threats, some provisions that expand the role of the military risk weakening civilian control and opening up opportunities for the militarization of politics. Therefore, this study recommends strengthening civilian oversight through independent institutions, updating military accountability mechanisms, and revising the TNI Bill to ensure the TNI remains focused on defense functions. The findings contribute to the discourse on civil-military relations in Indonesia and offer a new perspective on the importance of maintaining civilian supremacy in the democratization process.

Exploration Of Socio-Political Change In Natural Resource Management In Urban Areas
Rapid urbanization in major cities has put great pressure on natural resources, leading to environmental degradation, reduced green space, and increased pollution and carbon emissions. This process led to a major change in the way societies managed natural resources, affecting their quality and availability. This study explores the influence of socio-political changes on urban natural resource management, with a focus on social dynamics, government policies, and the role of civil society and the private sector. The findings show that the imbalance between urban development and the preservation of natural resources often fuels conflict, while adaptive policies, green technologies, and nature-based approaches can be solutions to reduce environmental impacts. The study also identified that community participation and collaboration between sectors are essential to address the challenges of sustainable natural resource management. This collaboration will improve the efficiency of resource use and reduce negative impacts on the environment, ensuring the sustainability of natural resources for the future.

TNI Bill and Regional Autonomy: Implications for Central-Regional Relations in Security Management
Following the 1998 reforms, Indonesia experienced a significant transformation in the security sector, marked by the elimination of the dual function of the Indonesian Armed Forces (ABRI) and the strengthening of civilian supremacy. However, the current discussion of the Draft Law on the Indonesian National Armed Forces (RUU TNI) has raised concerns about the return of military dominance in civil affairs through military operations other than war (OMSP). This study analyzes the potential impact of the RUU TNI on central-regional relations in security management. Using a qualitative descriptive approach through literature study, this study examines the normative provisions in the RUU TNI and compares them with the principles of democratization and decentralization. The findings show that expanding the role of the TNI in domestic affairs without a civilian oversight mechanism and coordination with local governments has the potential to blur the boundaries between civil defense and security functions, weaken regional autonomy, and create institutional tensions. Central dominance through the military also increases the risk of human rights violations and reduces accountability for security governance. Therefore, the revision of the RUU TNI needs to consider the principles of civilian supremacy, military professionalism, and regional participation in national security policies to prevent the decline of democratic reforms and maintain inclusive and equitable national integration.

Analysis of The Use Of SIASN in The Personnel and Human Resources Development Agency (BKPSDM) in Palangkaraya City Using The Hot Fit Approach
This study aims to examine how SIASN is utilized at the BKPSDM of Palangkaraya City. Based on the researcher's observations, the use of SIASN has not yet been explored in previous studies, making it the novelty of this research. The ASN Index Score (IP ASN) of Palangkaraya City ranked 17th with a "very low" category as of February 28, 2024, according to the official website of the ASN Data Rejuvenation Index for Region VII. This prompted the researcher to explore further the use of SIASN and its challenges in order to find solutions that could benefit BKPSDM Palangkaraya City. This research adopts a qualitative approach and uses the NVivo 12 Plus application for data processing. The findings show that the implementation of SIASN at BKPSDM Palangkaraya City has been carried out properly based on the HOT Fit framework, which includes human, organizational, technological, and benefit aspects. However, there are still several aspects that need improvement, such as the intensity of system usage, user satisfaction levels, and the quality of services provided. The main challenges include age differences that affect the ability to operate the technology, as well as delays in data processing when the system is used in large volumes, especially towards the end of the year. On the other hand, factors such as system quality, information quality, organizational structure and environment, as well as the benefits produced, have functioned well and should continue to be maintained and improved.

Transformation of Social Values in Political Policy: A Case Study of Community Participation in Regional Development
Abstract Modernization and globalization have shifted the pattern of community participation in regional development from community-based to more formal structural mechanisms. This shift increases the effectiveness of regulation and distribution of resources, but also limits the flexibility and room for community movement. Social values that shift from collectivism to individualism also influence the level of political awareness, although not always accompanied by an increase in active participation. The main obstacles to community participation include low education, limited access to information, complex bureaucracy, and minimal trust in the government due to corruption. On the other hand, transparency of information and the use of technology, such as e-Musrenbang, have the potential to increase citizen involvement in the development process. Other challenges include the dominance of political elites and unequal access to public policies, which often limit deliberative democracy. Therefore, bureaucratic reform and more effective coordination between agencies are needed to encourage meaningful participation. Openness of information and increased political and digital literacy are key factors in creating a more inclusive space for participation. With the right strategy, community participation can grow substantially and contribute to more transparent, democratic, and sustainable regional development.

Analysis of the Impact of Organizational Structure and Bureaucratic Governance on the Workload of SCA Employees at the Secretariat of the Surabaya City RPRA.Analysis of the Impact of Organizational Structure and Bureaucratic Governance on the Workload of SCA Employees at the Secretariat of the Surabaya City RPRA.
This study aims to analyze the impact of organizational structure and bureaucratic governance on the workload of State Civil Apparatus (SCA) employees at the Secretariat of the Surabaya City RPRA. The workload of SCA employees is a major challenge in maintaining productivity and work balance, especially within a hierarchical organizational structure and suboptimal bureaucratic governance. The implementation of Surabaya Mayor Regulation Number 68 of 2021 has simplified the organizational structure at the RPRA Secretariat from four to three sections: the General Section, the Meeting and Legislation Section, and the Information and Protocol Section. This change has the potential to create workload imbalances and affect employee performance. This study employs a descriptive method with a qualitative approach through observations and document analysis. The results indicate that an overly hierarchical organizational structure slows down coordination and task distribution, while inefficient bureaucratic governance burdens employees with repetitive administrative procedures. The proposed recommendations include organizational restructuring, employee capacity development, and the implementation of digital technology to streamline administrative processes. Bureaucratic reforms focused on efficiency and effectiveness are expected to better manage the workload of SCA employees, create a conducive work environment, enhance productivity, and support the achievement of optimal organizational goals.

Institutional Development of Village-Owned Enterprises in Managing Water Resources and Tourism Villages Through a Stakeholder Collaboration Approach
This study aims to analyze the development of Village-Owned Enterprises (VOE) in managing water resources and tourism villages through a stakeholder collaboration approach. VOE strategically optimizes local potential, including sustainable water resource management and tourism village development to boost the local economy. This research uses a qualitative method with a case study approach in villages with abundant tourism potential and water resources. We collected data through in-depth interviews with key stakeholders, such as village government officials, VOEs managers, and local community members involved in tourism village development. The results show that collaboration among stakeholders, involving the village government, VOEs, and the community, creates an effective synergy in managing water resources and developing tourism villages. VOEs serve as the main drivers coordinating various interests and resources, while active community participation is critical to maintaining the sustainability of the programs. Additionally, policy support from the village government and partnership patterns help overcome the technical and financial challenges VOEs face. This study concludes that a collaborative approach among stakeholders is an effective strategy for developing VOEs to manage water resources and tourism villages. Successful implementation requires a shared commitment, transparency, and good communication among all parties.

Analysis of the Implementation of Resident Check-in Program in Mulyorejo Subdistrict, Surabaya City
This research aims to determine the output of the Resident Check-In application in Mulyorejo Subdistrict, as well as the involvement and availability of human resources in its implementation. This study uses a qualitative method with data collection based on interviews, observations, and descriptive documentation. The results of the research indicate that the output achieved has not yet met the established targets. There are still issues faced, so the Resident Check-In application has not yet become a solution for problem-solving in Mulyorejo Subdistrict. Through community participation, the implementation of the Resident Check-In program is running well, and the feedback received is very positive. To address the shortfall in the output achieved, Mulyorejo Subdistrict is improving communication by utilizing current technology such as WhatsApp. Recommendations from this study include enhancing the implementation of the Resident Check-In application in Mulyorejo Subdistrict regarding the quality of the subdistrict officials' performance so that it can eventually become a good example for other subdistricts in producing outputs and increasing community participation. Additionally, further socialization regarding the Resident Check-In application is necessary so that residents will be more conducive to updating data. The results of this study can serve as a guide for the government to improve the existing system of the Resident Check-In application, to enhance the quality and efficiency of the performance of subdistrict officials in each area of Surabaya City. Moreover, it includes improving the quality of performance by developing officials in Mulyorejo Subdistrict.
