DEVELOPMENT OF AN ELECTRONIC PUBLIC COMPLAINTS SYSTEM TO IMPROVE PUBLIC SERVICES
Public complaints are essential for the government to see how successful it is in carrying out activities. Public complaints are an essential element for local agencies because complaints are aimed at correcting the shortcomings of the activities that have been carried out. The absence of an electronic complaint system will hamper the complaint reporting process, so repairing deficiencies in government agencies will be hampered. The delay in repairing deficiencies in the agency will, of course, also affect the services provided to the community. The government can certainly use technology development to improve public services from the government to the community. This study discusses the development of an online-based public complaint system with the website-based Extreme Programming (XP) method that the public can access so that complaint reports can be submitted in real-time. The results of testing the complaint system from the usability side show an average value of 88.7% in the excellent category, so the application is feasible to use and as needed

How Trade and Investment Agreements Affect Bilateral Foreign Direct Investment: Results from a Structural Gravity Model
The paper develops a new stand-alone structural gravity model for explaining bilateral FDI patterns. We employ the model to analyse the impact of preferential trade agreements (PTAs), bilateral investment treaties (BITs) and other policies on bilateral foreign direct investment (FDI). We use the UNCTAD global database on bilateral FDI stocks and flows. To control for the heterogeneous nature of PTAs, we employ two different indicators of PTA depth. We find that on average signing a PTA increases bilateral FDI stocks by around 30%. Nevertheless, we also find that ‘deeper’ or comprehensive PTAs (e.g., including provisions on investment, public procurement and intellectual property rights provisions) do not have a significantly different impact than signing regular PTAs. Belonging to the EU single market, on the other hand, has a strong impact and increases bilateral FDI by around 135%, and signing a BIT has an effect that is comparable to signing a PTA
