In every disaster, problems of information and communication distribution always occur. The communication channel is very dependent on various supporting facilities. Electricity, transmitter towers, broadcasting stations, to human resources. In two big disasters in Indonesia in 2018: the Lombok earthquake; and the earthquake, tsunami and liquefaction in Palu, there were issues of the information and communication channels. Local people do not know the conditions that occur in their area and the situation of their families. While outsiders, the government, and rescue teams did not get detailed information from the affected areas. In countries with high intensity of natural disasters, emergency broadcasting policies have been long practiced. The simplest device for emergency broadcasting is radio. This kind of media can immediately air with simple facilities. Regardless, the initiative of emergency radio has not yet adopted into regulation in Indonesia. Therefore, the emergency radio initiator limited to a handful of organization like in Lombok earthquake. Conversely in Palu disaster, there was a Ministerial Decree of Information and Communication Ministry Number 773/2018 (KM 773), regulation that simplify access to radio frequency. Using comparative method, this research examined these two disasters to analyze the differences of emergency radio practices. Only 1.5 months away and similar location features, the emergency radios initiation differ in several aspects related subjects that regulated in this KM. The result shows that this KM can broaden all aspects of emergency broadcasting radio. Although, the KM unable to shorten the time of emergency radio implementation. Regulation change only limited to frequency access. A broader regulation change is needed to support the practice of emergency radio.

Use Of Social Media

Social media has become an integral part of many people's lives around the world. The main use of this communication channel is to connect with social circles. It is also widely used for commercial and business purposes. Governments are also keen to use social media as an alternative to the traditional communication channels. Nonetheless, when the level of use of social media in the government is compared to other fields, a clear gap becomes apparent. This chapter investigates the adoption of social media as a communication channel between citizens, public agencies and government departments; and considers a wide range of factors that affect the issue from the perspective of public agencies. This chapter presents an extensive literature review and proposes a framework that organises the critical factors that affect public agencies' efforts while implementing social media. We also provide a list of hypotheses to validate and evaluate the significance of these factors.

Abstract. This study aims to analyze the accountability of grant expenditure on the Government of the City of Manado. This research is a qualitative research with an exploratory approach. Data were obtained by in-depth interviews and documentation study. It was concluded that there are obstacles in the six grant expenditure management processes. The problems have occurred in the processes of accountability and reporting. Those problems are (1) compliance problems occurred in the process of implementing grants expenditure accountability, (2) regulatory constraints in which regulations have not yet been conveyed to grant managers, especially in relation to regional equipment, (3) constrains in the implementation of grant spendings in which they are processed in longer time because they have to go through several stages, (4) constraints in terms of lack of human resources competencies and capabilities of accountability and reporting, and (5) the limitations of supporting facilities in realizing accountability for grant spending. This study found that the coordination among grants managers, information and communication both managers and recipients of grants are very important to achieve accountability. Socialising regulations related to grant spending, affirming sanctions and aiding community or grant recipients will help to achieve better grant expenditure accountability. Various efforts were made to minimize the delay in submitting the grant fund accountability report, namely by giving sanctions, coordination between grant managers, more intensive requests for reports from recipients of the grant as well as the formulation of a standardized accountability report format to allow  grantees to compile accountability reports easier and to ease reviewers to examine the reports.Keywords: Grants Expenditure Accountability, Local Government.Abstrak.

Data diperoleh dengan teknik wawancara mendalam dan studi dokumentasi. Disimpulkan bahwa dari keenam proses pengelolaan belanja hibah, terdapat proses yang sering mengalami kendala yaitu proses pertanggungjawaban dan pelaporan. Kendala-kendala tersebut adalah (1) kendala kepatuhan yang terjadi dalam proses pelaksanaan akuntabilitas belanja hibah, (2) kendala regulasi, dimana regulasi belum tersampaikan kepada pengelola hibah khususnya perangkat daerah terkait, (3) kendala pelaksanaan belanja hibah yakni proses yang memerlukan waktu agak lama karena harus melewati beberapa tahap, (4) kendala kompetensi sumberdaya manusia dalam proses pertanggungjawaban dan pelaporan, (5) serta keterbatasan fasilitas penunjang merupakan kendala-kendala dalam mewujudkan akuntabilitas belanja hibah. Disamping itu, kerjasama antara pengelola hibah, informasi dan komunikasi baik untuk pengelola maupun penerima hibah sangat diperlukan dalam pencapaian akuntabilitas. Pentingnya sosialisasi peraturan-peraturan terkait belanja hibah, penegasan sanksi serta pendampingan bagi masyarakat atau penerima hibah akan membantu terlaksananya akuntabilitas belanja hibah yang lebih baik. Berbagai upaya dilakukan untuk meminimalisasikan keterlambatan penyampaian laporan pertanggungjawaban dana hibah yaitu dengan pemberian sanksi, adanya koordinasi antara pengelola hibah, permintaan laporan kepada penerima hibah yang lebih intensif serta penyusunan format laporan pertanggungjawaban yang baku agar memudahkan penerima hibah menyusun laporan pertanggungjawaban dan memudahkan pemeriksa.Kata kunci : Akuntabilitas Belanja Hibah, Pemerintah Kota.

Evolution of e-Governance concept in Sri Lanka can be traced back to 1983 because the Government of Sri Lanka for the first time recognized its obligation for ICT development by creating the National Computer Policy of 1983. The Information and Communication Technology Act No. 27 of 2003 came into existence in 2003 and the Information and Communication Technology Agency of Sri Lanka was established. In 2004, “e-Sri Lanka Development Project” was initiated. It included information infrastructure building, improvement of human resources in ICT, citizen-specific service delivery, creating a modern government using ICT for social and economic development, and endorsing Sri Lanka as a destination for ICT. The e-Sri Lanka initiative expects to use ICT to develop the economy of Sri Lanka by reducing poverty and thus improving the quality of life of its citizens. Presently, the government makes an effort in realizing this vision through six programme strategy schemes. This is explored in this chapter.

This study investigated the usage and types of information and communications technologies (ICTs) accessible to community members in four selected Thusong Service Centres (TSCs or telecentres) in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN). The telecentres that participated in the study were: Nhlazuka, Mbazwane, Dududu and Malangeni. The study was informed by Rogers’ (1995) Diffusion of Innovations (DoI) theory. Through a survey, four TSCs were purposively selected. A questionnaire was used to collect data from community members in the four telecentres involved. The data collected was tabulated under the various headings and presented using tables, frequencies, percentiles and generalisations with the help of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The results indicated that a variety of ICT tools have been adopted in the TSCs to provide the local community with the much-needed access to information and improved communication. The government should ensure that adequate varieties and levels of ICT competence are offered to all the citizens. In conclusion, there is a need for sufficient and coherent government policies regulating the training of the local community to use these ICTs effectively.
