Digital transformation in various community activities and public services managed by the government during the pandemic continues to this day. One of the innovations made by the Pekanbaru City Government is to create an electronic-based government application, namely "Pekanbaru Dalam Genggaman". This study aims to determine the effectiveness of using the "Pekanbaru Dalam Genggaman" application in providing public services to the community in relation to the digitalization of services. This study uses a qualitative approach where data sources are obtained from direct observation of the Pekanbaru Dalam Genggaman application and through literature studies of books, journals, articles, and other sources that are in accordance with the research topic. To analyze the concepts of digitalization in public services, this study uses an approach from the Harvard JFK School of Government, there are three elements of success that must be possessed, namely support, capacity, and value (benefits). The results of this study suggest that to apply the concepts of digitalization to public services, there are three elements of success that must be possessed, namely support, ability, and benefits. In terms of support, the government has deployed two to four IT personnel in each agency, but the infrastructure to support public services through digital is not yet optimal. In terms of capability, it is also considered unsuccessful, because 5 of the 16 features in the Pekanbaru Dalam Genggaman application do not function, of which 3 of the 5 features that do not function are very important for the community. In terms of benefits, only a small portion of the community feels the benefits. Because there are still many people who do not know about the existence of this application</em>.</p> Muhammad Arif Muliawan Zulfa Harirah Copyright (c) 2024 Muhammad Arif Muliawan, Zulfa Harirah https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2024-07-30 2024-07-30 5 2 64 78 10.54144/govsci.v5i2.60 Transmisi Informasi Kebencanaan Dalam Penerapan Kebijakan Relokasi Pasca Gempa Bumi, Tsunami Dan Likuifaksi Di Palu Sulawesi Tengah https://govsci.fisip-unmul.ac.id/site/index.php/govsci/article/view/70 <p><em>This study examines the transmission of information in the implementation of post-earthquake, tsunami, and liquefaction relocation policies in Palu, Central Sulawesi. The background of this study is the existence of problems in the relocation process characterized by miscommunication between the government and affected communities, as well as between the central, provincial, and city governments. The study aims to evaluate the impact of information transmission on the effectiveness of relocation policy implementation. The method used is a qualitative approach with document analysis and field observation. The results of the study indicate that ineffective communication causes information distortion and confusion among the community and policy implementers. In addition, weak bureaucratic support and differences in policy interpretation between levels of government worsen the situation on the ground. This study concludes that to improve the effectiveness of relocation policies, better communication and stronger collaboration between stakeholders are needed, so that policies can be implemented consistently and on target</em></p> Syamsul Bahri Copyright (c) 2024 Syamsul Bahri https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2024-07-30 2024-07-30 5 2 79 99 10.54144/govsci.v5i2.70 E-Government Public Relations: A Systematic Literature https://govsci.fisip-unmul.ac.id/site/index.php/govsci/article/view/74 <p><em>This research aims to identify and describe the implementation of Government Public Relations based on digital technology or commonly referred to as E-Government Public Relations in a government system and can be used as study material.

What was applied in this research was a systematic literature review using 500 scientific articles sourced from the Scopus database. Review articles using the Vosviewer application. The research results reveal that E-Government Public Relations has a significant function and role in the activities and communication activities of government institutions which aim to improve services, meet public information needs and build and create a good communication climate between institutions and their stakeholders through various means. communication media platforms. Public Relations as a management function which aims to build, maintain and create quality communication, understanding and cooperation between an organization and its public, he also added that PR involves problem management or issue management, because PR is also responsible for assisting organizational management. The limitation of this research is that the articles used only come from the Scopus database so that the research findings cannot comprehensively describe the issue of digital transformation in e-government public relations. Future research needs to use scientific articles sourced from other reputable international databases, such as Web of Science and Dimensionds Scholars.</em></p> Ahmad Sahal Alamsyah Jajuli Salahudin Salahudin Muhammad Firdaus Copyright (c) 2024 Ahmad Sahal Alamsyah Jajuli, Salahudin Salahudin, Muhammad Firdaus https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2024-07-30 2024-07-30 5 2 100 116 10.54144/govsci.v5i2.74 Open Government: Key Issues in Latvia https://govsci.fisip-unmul.ac.id/site/index.php/govsci/article/view/86 <p><em>This study aims to find out how the management of Sedana Mekar BUMDes applies the principles of village autonomy in Mekarsari village, East Lore sub-district, Poso district.
