This study examines the role of management control systems (MCS) in enhancing the performance of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Indonesia, focusing on the interaction between enabling and coercive control systems within the framework of ethical work climate (EWC) and good university governance (GUG). The research highlights the importance of creating a positive ethical work environment to improve the effectiveness of MCS and governance practices. A survey was conducted with lecturers and administrative staff from private universities across Indonesia, with data analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) to test the relationships between EWC, MCS, GUG, and HEI performance. The findings reveal that both Enabling and Coercive Control Systems positively influence HEI performance and contribute to the improvement of GUG. Additionally, a positive EWC strengthens the effectiveness of both control systems, fostering trust, transparency, and employee engagement. The study provides theoretical insights into how MCS and ethical climates shape governance and performance in higher education, with practical implications for HEIs administrators to optimize MCS, balance control systems, and cultivate an ethical work environment to enhance institutional success. Future research could further explore the impact of leadership styles and external factors on the effectiveness of these systems in different higher education contexts.

Public management seeks to balance efficiency and effectiveness to ensure that administrative simplification benefits both institutions and users. This study aims to determine the extent to which service quality optimizes administrative simplification. This is an applied research study, with a quantitative approach and explanatory-correlational level, conducted with 122 students from the Faculty of Animal Husbandry at the National University of Central Peru - Huancayo. Inductive-deductive, experimental, comparative, and statistical methods were used, with a longitudinal design. A questionnaire based on the Technical Standard for Service Quality Management in the Public Sector was administered. The results, analyzed using the Z statistical test with a 95% confidence interval, showed a value of 3.527, accepting the alternative hypothesis (μD > 0). This demonstrates that administrative simplification improved significantly after the implementation of strategies designed to correct weaknesses detected in the diagnosis. Consequently, the improvement in service quality resulted in improved administrative simplification, reducing service times and costs.

This study examines how access to different types of financial services influences household welfare in Indonesia. Using data from a large sample of 331,068 households, the research applies Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression to evaluate the impact of financial institutions on household income, which serves as a proxy for welfare. The findings reveal that access to microfinance and commercial banks significantly improves household income, highlighting the critical role these institutions play in enhancing welfare. Conversely, households relying on informal financial institutions tend to have lower incomes, indicating a negative effect on welfare. Further analysis reveals important variations based on gender and geographic location. Microfinance and cooperatives are particularly beneficial for female-headed households and those in rural areas, underscoring their importance in supporting underserved populations. On the other hand, access to commercial banks benefits both male and female headed households but has a stronger impact in urban areas where formal banking services are more readily available. While informal financial institutions negatively affect urban households, they provide modest advantages for female-headed and rural households, serving as an alternative in areas lacking formal financial services. These findings underscore the need for targeted financial inclusion policies that address gender and regional disparities. Such policies should prioritize expanding access to microfinance and cooperatives for rural and female-headed households while also improving access to formal banking services in urban areas to enhance overall welfare.

East Timor is one of the youngest nations in the world, having been established in 2002. The majority of East Timor's population works in the agricultural sector, yet the mining sector (oil and gas) plays a dominant role in contributing to the country's GDP. The management of oil revenue in East Timor is adapted from the model implemented in Norway, known as Norway Plus. Aware that oil and gas resources must be supported by other economic sectors in the long term, this study aims to analyze potential scenarios for developing East Timor's key economic sectors, as well as to propose potential policy pathways. The research approach uses prospective methods (SMIC-Prob analysis and MULTIPOL), which are suitable for policy formulation due to their future-oriented nature. Data collection was conducted through Focus Group Discussions (FGD) involving experts from both the government and academia. The results from the SMIC-Prob analysis show that the oil and gas sector indeed has the highest probability. However, in the long term, the agricultural sector emerges as a crucial alternative. Furthermore, the MULTIPOL analysis indicates that in scenarios focusing on the development of non-oil and gas sectors, policies should prioritize the development of local economic sectors. The government of East Timor is recommended to seriously develop non-oil and gas sectors by utilizing revenue from oil and gas extraction. Additionally, environmental governance is also a critical consideration to achieve sustainable, inclusive development.
