The Integrated Spatial Assessment of The Flood Hazard Using AHP-GIS: The Case Study of Gorontalo Regency

Mapping of potential flood hazards is an important element in ensuring proper planning of development and implementing flood disaster mitigation efforts for flooded areas. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the regional-scale flood hazard areas in Gorontalo District using an AHP-GIS integration technique with the focus on factors such as annual rainfall, elevation, slope, soil type, distance to the water bodies, and land-use. The flood hazard was divided into five classes, ranging from very low to very high, and 13.61% of the total area in Gorontalo Regency is classified as either high or very high. Moreover, the distribution of the hazard was verified and 65 events were recorded to have a level of 90.7% and this indicates the model is reliable to assess flood hazard. The results showed GIS-AHP integration is a promising method to accurately predict flood-hazard areas, especially in those with limited data.

Problematics of State Civil Apparatus Productivity Towards Bureaucracy Streamliness

The phenomenon of problems faced in increasing the productivity of the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) in Indonesia is closely related to the mismatch between the composition of positions and the competencies possessed by ASN. This is further exacerbated by efforts to simplify the bureaucracy that have not been fully supported by increasing the ability and mastery of technology, which has the potential to hinder efficiency in public services. This article aims to analyze and describe 1) How the match between the composition and competency of the State Civil Apparatus affects the productivity of the bureaucracy in Indonesia; and 2) evaluate the effectiveness of bureaucratic simplification and equalization of positions in increasing the efficiency of decision-making and matching the composition of ASN with the existing workload. The research method used is a qualitative method. The data analysis used is an interactive model analysis consisting of three analysis components, namely: 1) Data Reduction; 2) Data Presentation; 3) Data Verification and Conclusion Drawing. The results of the article show that: 1) the mismatch between the composition and competency of ASN is still a major challenge in increasing the productivity of the bureaucracy in Indonesia. Countries with efficient bureaucratic systems such as Singapore and Estonia show that ASN placement based on strict competency evaluation can optimize performance, even though the age of the ASN is older. Therefore, Indonesia needs to adopt a more comprehensive approach, such as a continuous training system that is tailored to the needs of specific sectors, to improve the quality of ASN and streamline the bureaucratic structure to achieve higher productivity; 2) bureaucratic simplification and job equalization can match the composition of ASN with the workload more efficiently, allowing for faster and more responsive decision-making. An early retirement scheme can be a solution to replace less adaptive ASN with a workforce that is better prepared to face the challenges of technology and organizational dynamics. However, the success of bureaucratic simplification depends on the competence of the remaining ASN, who must be ensured to have skills that match the demands of change and the needs of the organization.

The Effect of Audit Committee and Board Independence in Determining Firm Value: Evidence from Maritime Companies in Indonesia

Corporate governance mechanisms, particularly the roles of the audit committee and independent commissioners, are increasingly examined in relation to their influence on firm value through the quality of financial reporting. This study aims to examine the effect of the audit committee and board independence on firm value through the mediating role of financial reporting quality. The study employs a quantitative explanatory design using secondary data from annual reports of maritime transport companies during 2020–2024. Samples were selected through purposive sampling, and data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS 4.0. The results indicate that the audit committee has a positive and significant effect on firm value, while board independence has no significant impact. Financial reporting quality positively affects firm value but does not mediate the relationship between the audit committee or board independence and firm value. The study contributes theoretically to corporate governance literature and provides practical insights for public companies to strengthen audit functions and the reliability of financial reporting.

Sustainable Self-Compacting Concrete: The Role of Limestone Powder as A Cement Replacement

The excessive use of cement in concrete production contributes significantly to environmental impacts, particularly CO? emissions. One potential solution is the partial replacement of cement with limestone powder in self-compacting concrete (SCC). This study aimed to investigate the effect of limestone powder as a partial cement replacement on the fresh properties and compressive strength of SCC. Limestone powder was used at replacement levels of 0%, 6%, 9%, 12%, and 15% by weight of cement. The fresh properties of SCC were evaluated using slump flow, V-funnel, and L-box tests, while compressive strength tests were conducted to assess hardened performance. The results showed that SCC mixtures containing up to 9% limestone powder satisfied the SCC workability requirements. The optimum performance was achieved at 6% limestone powder replacement, which produced a slump flow diameter of 600 mm and compressive strength of 29.58 MPa, exceeding the design strength target of 25 MPa. Higher replacement levels reduced both workability and compressive strength, with the 15% mixture failing to meet acceptable performance criteria. These findings indicate that limestone powder can be effectively utilized as a sustainable partial cement replacement in SCC at moderate replacement levels while maintaining satisfactory fresh and hardened properties.

FACTORS AFFECTING WASTE MANAGEMENT IN NORTH BUNTULIA VILLAGE, POHUWATO DISTRICT

The fact remains that waste management is still not given proper attention and is inadequately handled by various parties, despite being a shared responsibility. Improper waste management can lead to numerous environmental issues such as flooding, global warming, and the outbreak of various diseases. This article aims to identify and describe the factors influencing waste management in North Buntulia Village, Pohuwato District. The research method employed is qualitative, utilizing an interactive model analysis for data analysis. This model consists of three components: 1) Data reduction, 2) Data presentation, and 3) Data verification and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the factors influencing waste management include: 1) the size of the organization, 2) management style, 3) the complexity of the business environment, 4) the production process, and 5) the characteristics of the problems faced and the objectives of planning. This study recommends that the Regional Government of Pohuwato Regency.

TINJAUAN SISTEMATIS KOMPARASI PCI DAN VISI KOMPUTER UNTUK EVALUASI KERUSAKAN JALAN

This study aims to conduct a comparative analysis of the conventional Pavement Condition Index (PCI) method and a computer vision-based approach in evaluating road pavement damage in Indonesia. The method used was a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) based on the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Data were collected through a structured search of the Scopus and Google Scholar databases, identifying 27 selected studies that met the inclusion criteria. The results show that PCI has high accuracy and is internationally recognized for evaluating 20 types of damage, but it requires significant time, cost, and manpower and involves subjectivity. Conversely, computer vision using deep learning algorithms can provide fast, objective, and scalable results with 76–95% accuracy, although it is still limited to specific types of damage and is influenced by environmental factors. This study recommends a hybrid approach that integrates both methods, along with the use of low-cost technologies, such as smartphones and GIS-based UAVs, to support more efficient road infrastructure maintenance in Indonesia.
