Abstract

Currently, the eased of COVID-19 restriction in several countries initiate a hope to the world about living with COVID-19 in the form of endemic phase. The emergence of endemic in public administration overview is lead to the concept of decentralization. Several studies shown the obstacles arise to the policy response of the last COVID-19 management in most of the local government. Therefore, this study is intended to explore the problem faced by Surabaya City as the preparedness of endemic transition. It is a kind of descriptive research that is conducted through a qualitative approach by using semi-structured interviews. This inquiry has been conducted in Surabaya as the capital city of East Java Province with the highest heterogeny population that seems more complex in facing the problem. The finding of this study confirms the problems arise in the transition from pandemic to endemic COVID-19 in Surabaya City. This problem consists of: (1) no legal regulation appropriate; (2) health infrastructure crisis; (3) economic crisis; (4) loss of social work. Our result is expected to contribute as a reference for scholars and organizations that are trying to prepare deeper efforts in their organizations before endemic discourse is officially implemented.
