Abstract

In the face of the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic downturn amidst the scarcity of limited resources and increasingly complex public problems, the Indonesian government must seek to resolve both problems. To address COVID-19 pandemic issues, the Indonesian government promotes the “3M” protocols and “3T” policy. As the result, public is largely well-acquainted with “3M” protocols, but on the other hand most people are still unaware about “3T’ policy in the context of pandemic mitigation. To overcome this gap, Indonesian government needs to make full use of digital technology to handle COVID-19 pandemic and address a wide range of pandemic-related issues. Thus, this study analyses the regional development disparities in Indonesia related to the use of digital technology in 3T policy to address COVID-19 pandemic and the challenges in the implementation of 3T policy in Indonesia using qualitative methods. This study shows that regional development disparities in Indonesia causes the occurrence of inequality in various sectors, such as access to internet. The challenges in the implementation of 3T policy that occur in Indonesia such as infrastructure disparities, lack of government-oriented coordination, human resources inequality, and people’s indiscipline impacts on the efforts to flatten the country’s COVID-19 incidence curves and maintain low mortality rates.
