Environmental Economic Benefits in Public Service Malls: A Perspective on Resource Efficiency and Improving Community Welfare in Indonesia

Abstract

The Public Service Mall (MPP) is an innovation in government services that aims to increase the efficiency, effectiveness, and accessibility of public services. From an environmental economic perspective, MPP contributes to optimizing the use of resources and encouraging the growth of community welfare. This research discusses the environmental economic benefits generated by MPPs in Indonesia, focusing on resource efficiency and its impact on community welfare. Through the integration of various services in one location, MPP reduces people's travel needs, thereby saving time, cost, and energy consumption. In addition, the existence of MPPs can encourage carbon footprint reduction through operational efficiency and optimization of public infrastructure. On the other hand, MPP improves the accessibility of basic services, which has an impact on reducing social disparities and improving the quality of life. The conclusion of this study shows that the development of MPP not only supports the bureaucratic reform agenda, but also has a positive impact on the environmental economy through more efficient resource management and sustainable improvement of community welfare.
