“…Despite the criticisms against the initial moves, Jakarta was considered the most responsive regional government compared to its counterpart regions according to a research survey by Darmastuti et al, (2020). So has the case of Jakarta been a role model for its city counterparts in the country in adopting innovative policies for the prevention of pandemic spreading (Tuti et al, 2022).…”

“…Just like other world's mega-cities, Jakarta was the most exposed to the pandemic due to its population density and status of largest urban agglomeration in Indonesia. Though Jakarta was frequently reported to be the most contributor of the COVID-19 confirmed cases in the country, the city had a record as the region with the most massive testing and vaccination (Tuti et al, 2022;Yuda & Qomariyah, 2022) in addition to contributing to providing hospital treatment and vaccination for those coming from neighboring cities (Antara, 2021;Tempo, 2021). The Jakarta regional government's local initiatives in responding to the pandemic made it be among the top 50 cities globally with best-practice of handling the pandemic benchmarking economic resilience, government efficiency, healthcare management, quarantine efficiency, and vaccination rate (Deep Knowledge Analytics, 2021).…”

The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic has impacted all the world’s aspects, including the interactions among governments. While some either chose to be conflicting with others or overlooked the pandemic, the rest attempted to collaborate in addressing the new global threat. Mega-cities in many countries were the most suffering regions due to the enormous virus confirmed cases, deaths, and economic declines, intertwining with other urban issues. As the largest city in Southeast Asia and in Indonesia, Jakarta also experienced the unprecedented crisis. However, apart from the efforts to tackle the crisis at home, the city showed its international engagement in addressing the issue together with other world’s cities as its para-diplomacy. This research aimed to answer the driving factors encouraging the city for such engagement. This research employed the qualitive method with a descriptive analysis and the city leadership theory proposed by Rapoport, Acuto and Grcheva. This research found that the Jakarta’s international engagement in addressing the pandemic as the city leadership action was driven by the role of city leader, decentralization and global city networking, and the regional COVID-19 policies and internet representing three elements in the theory: actor, structures, and tools. This paper argues that cities within the global city networking have demonstrated their stronger role during the pandemic, providing opportunity for nation branding by regional initiatives in handling the pandemic in addition to state foreign policy. As cities have been more consolidated within the networks, seeing the city leadership in responding to global issues merits attentions among scholars.

“…The high concentrations of people and activities in cities made them a major battleground for pandemic crises ( Sharifi & Khavarian-Garmsir, 2020 ) and the basic unit for the development and implementation of mobility restriction policies ( Bonaccorsi et al, 2020 ; Ren, 2020 ; Wang et al, 2022 ). In the event of a surge in cases, lockdown policies of varying strictness were implemented at the city level, including policies of complete alienation, community containment, business shutdowns ( Hu et al, 2021 ), or closures of only urban public spaces, especially third spaces—places that are neither work nor home ( Martínez & Short, 2021 ), or reductions in mobility by controlling the ratio of working from home to working from the office ( Tuti, Nurmandi, & Zahra, 2022 ). However, only some cities chose to monitor public compliance and violations ( Jain et al, 2022 ).…”

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the government implemented a large-scale social restriction policy that impacted online learning. There are obstacles where not all students have supporting learning facilities and have learning difficulties requiring teacher intervention in the learning process. The study aimed to determine teacher intervention in the learning process for students with learning difficulties. The research method used descriptive qualitative at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (Islamic Elementary School) Ats-Tsauroh Serang City, Banten Province. Data collection was limited to interviews with eight informants, including teachers, madrasa heads, and deputy madrasa heads, during the social restrictions period in February-April 2021. The results showed that teacher intervention in overcoming student learning difficulties was carried out directly, namely by understanding student conditions, understanding the typology of student learning difficulties, communicating with students' parents, observing students' family environmental conditions, conducting study visits to students' homes, and assessing student motivation. Teacher creativity is essential in making decisions for the benefit of student learning so that teachers provide the best service under challenging conditions. The implication of this research is that teacher intervention is effective in overcoming students' learning difficulties in the Covid-19 social restrictions.
