“…Tetapi dalam konteks Indonesia, tahun 2020 adalah tahun politik, di mana Pemerintah Pusat menyelenggarakan Pilkada Serentak pada bulan Desember. Kekhawatiran Pemerintah Pusat adalah ketika para kepala daerah (khususnya petahana) memanfaatkan momen COVID-19 untuk meningkatkan popularitas (Greer et al, 2022;Rizqiyati & Setiawan, 2022). Karena itulah, Menteri Dalam Negeri (Mendagri) mengarahkan para kepala daerah untuk tidak menyampaikan pernyataan yang berpotensi menimbulkan polemik, keresahan, serta kepanikan di masyarakat terkait COVID-19 selama kampanye (Merdeka.com, 2020).…”

The COVID-19 pandemic provides trials as well as lessons for the democratic system in Indonesia. This article examines and discusses the sustainability of democracy in Indonesia by reflecting on the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. The research method we use is qualitative with data collection techniques through observation, library research, and utilizing various online sources to analyze it. Our findings show that the government's strategy in anticipating the COVID-19 pandemic has reduced the level of democracy. This can be seen in the politicization of regulations which has led to the arrest and prosecution of civilians who disagree with the government. Second, the occurrence of executive aggrandisement by attracting opposition elites into the government so that there is no resistance in terms of handling COVID-19 and, third, the birth of a discourse on the perpetuation of executive power. If there are no efforts to correct the course of democracy, then Indonesian democracy will experience a deeper setback than during the COVID-19 pandemic.Keywords: COVID-19, Executive Aggrandisement, Democratic Regression, Authority AbstrakPandemi COVID-19 memberikan cobaan sekaligus pembelajaran terhadap sistem demokrasi di Indonesia. Artikel ini membahas dan mendiskusikan keberlanjutan demokrasi di Indonesia dengan bercermin pada penanganan pandemi COVID-19. Metode penelitian yang kami gunakan adalah kualitatif dengan teknik pengutipan data melalui observasi, library research, serta memanfaatkan berbagai sumber online untuk menganalisisnya. Temuan Kami menunjukkan bahwa strategi pemerintah dalam mengantisipasi pandemi COVID-19 telah menurunkan kadar demokrasi. Ini tampak pada politisasi regulasi yang berujung pada penangkapan dan penuntutan warga sipil yang berseberangan pandangan dengan pemerintah. Kedua, terjadinya executive aggrandisement dengan cara menarik menarik masuk elit oposisi dalam pemerintahan agar tidak ada perlawanan dalam hal penanganan COVID-19 dan, ketiga, lahirnya wacana pengekalan kekuasaan eksekutif. Jika tak ada upaya koreksi atas jalannya demokrasi, maka demokrasi Indonesia akan mengalami kemunduran yang lebih dalam dari masa pandemi COVID-19 lalu.Kata Kunci: COVID-19, Executive aggrandisement, Regresi demokrasi, Kuasa

This study investigates regiocentric SMEs and the impact of their products on Brebes Regency's regional revenue. The outcomes of this investigation were evaluated utilizing the AMOS 22 analytic software and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The theoretical implication of this study is that product configuration capabilities, entrepreneurial orientation, and market orientation influence regiocentric SME performance. In the meantime, regional revenue is influenced by the benefits of regiocentric small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), product configuration capabilities, entrepreneurial orientation, and market orientation. According to the findings of this investigation, hypothesis 1 demonstrates significant results with a value of CR = 2,996 1.96 and a probability of 0.003, meaning that H1 is acceptable. Testing hypothesis 2 shows significant results with a value of CR = 4.093 1.96 with probability = 0.000; the probability of qualifying the test below 0.05 means that H2 of this study is acceptable. If testing hypothesis 3 yields significant results with CR = 2,435.196 and probability = 0.015, then the probability of testing meeting the requirements is less than 0.05, making H3 acceptable. Testing hypothesis 4 yields significant results with a value of CR = 3.707 1.96 and a probability value of 0.000; hence, the test probability is less than 0.05, indicating that H4 is acceptable.
