    Authors: Eddy Soeryanto Soegoto ; Senny Luckyardi ; Lia Warlina ; Sri Supatmi

    DOI: 10.15549/jeecar.v9i2.872

    Abstract

    This study aims at proposing a business strategy to maintain the agricultural sector in Garut Regency during the Covid-19 Pandemic. Regardless of the fact that all sectors need special strategies to survive during the COVID-19 pandemic, there are still limited studies focusing on entrepreneurship strategies in the agriculture sector. The method used in this research was descriptive-qualitative with Garut Regency, Indonesia as the case study. Observations were made for a period of one year from October 2019 to October 2020 to observe the resilience of the agricultural sector in Garut district, Indonesia, as primary data and literature review was also used to support this analysis. The data collection results show a reduction in sales and production during the Covid-19 Pandemic due to physical distancing and other social restrictions policies that hinder activities, including the process of purchasing and distributing goods. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the agricultural sector of Garut Regency used a closed-loop strategy, namely by establishing cooperation between farmers and the industrial as well as retail sectors. The success of implementing this strategy is shown from the stable amount of chili agricultural production during the pandemic, as shown in Tables 1 and 2. Therefore, to support this strategy, a supporting strategy that considers internal and external factors in the agricultural sector is needed. This study uses SWOT analysis to determine important aspects in formulating solutions to agricultural problems during the pandemic. Based on the identified factors, various strategies were obtained to strengthen the economic structure of farmers from the short to the long term. As a result, farmers are expected to increase production and welfare as well as can become a momentum for strengthening national food independence. It is hoped that this research can be used as a reference for other researchers in their research and add insight. © 2022, Institute of Eastern Europe and Central Asia. All rights reserved.

The research method was qualitative methods, with data collection techniques through literature studies. The results showed that the implementation of E-government in several cities in Indonesia are still focused on improving the quality of public services, using the use of information technology through the pattern of Government to Citizen (G2C), Government to Business (G2B), Government to Government (G2G). The orientation of data and information distribution is still focused on the local population. The use of multilingual or foreign language options in accessing information is still less optimal. Various fields that can boost the city’s development, such as investment, trade, and tourism with a focus on overseas audiences, are informed well but the data or information presented is not integrated into one portal. Some cities that are doing sister cities cooperation also do not provide information about their sister city’s partner. There are several cities that are considered doing city diplomacy very well, by combining the e-government implementation and city diplomacy will greatly improve and accelerate the city’s economic development, and the city could be becoming an important player at the global level. © 2022, Institute of Eastern Europe and Central Asia.

  • The Interaction of User Experiences with Digital Economy Platforms

    and Creative Writing: Empirical Evidence from Indonesia

    Author: Retno Purwani Sari

    DOI: 10.15549/jeecar.v9i1.868

    Abstract

    The current study investigates how Indonesian user experiences with digital economy platforms support creative writing as a marketing communication strategy. This study employed a cross-sectional qualitative research design. At a single point in time, data on the assumptions of research participants were collected using questionnaires. To assess what and how participants shared their experiences and assumptions, interaction analysis was used. Preliminary findings indicate that Indonesian user experiences with digital economy platforms have an impact on the quality and accuracy of their writing. The findings revealed that digital writing principles – language choices, writing styles, and engagement with popular culture – are present in today’s creative writing. This implies that a minor change in the marketing message completely alters how and where it is promoted. Creative writing skills and digital literacy are valued in the labor market. These results are useful as a basis for strategic planning in the Indonesian educational system and marketing communication. © 2022, Institute of Eastern Europe and Central Asia.
