Regional Tourism Development As Poverty Reduction Strategy in Bangli Regency

Poverty which is an urgent problem faced by Indonesia requires systematic, integrated, and comprehensive handling steps as well as approach. Although many povertyreduction programs have been carried out by government agencies and other institutions, the results have not been optimal yet. This is due to the fact that the poverty-reduction programs carried out so far are generally limited to the symptoms and do not touch the root of the problems. Tourism is one of the alternatives to improve the economy sector because it provides employment opportunities and business opportunities. The purpose of this study was to find out poverty-reduction strategies by developing regional tourism in Bangli Regency. This study used quantitative main approach that was supported by qualitative approach. It was a mixed method combining quantitative and qualitative methods. The quantitative research was carried out through secondary data collection from data sources available at the Statistical Office, the Office of Regional Instrument Organizations (OPD) of Bangli Regency and several articles related to the research available in the institutions. The qualitative approach was also used in this study because some of the problems investigated were carried out through exploration by conducting in-depth interviews. In addition to the in-depth interviews, data collection was also carried out by conducting focus group discussions to explore the specific problems related to poverty-reduction strategy in the form of regional tourism development of Bangli Regency. In general, tourism development policies of Bangli Regency include: (1) The policies of developing tourism destinations in Bangli Regency that cover: (a) improving the quality of facilities and infrastructure as well as supporting services that can still maintain regional culture; (b) developing preservation of historical heritage and promotion of destination areas (DTW) which is carried out in accordance with the tourism development; and (c) conducting tourism activities which are directed to new DTW explorations.

Bottom Wall Construction of “Jodang” Trap Applied Selectively to Babylon Tiger (Babylonia Spirata) Snail Size

The objective of this research was to obtain net mesh bottom wall construction of “jodang” trap that selective to babylon tiger snails size, i.e. only shell length of l < 4.27 cm approximately could pass through. There were 3 designs shapes of bottom wall construction tested, i.e. rectangular shape of 2.4 ´ 2.8 (cm) and 2 diamond shapes with net mesh size of 5,6 cm and primary hanging ratio of E1 = 0.7 and 0.5. The results showed that rectangular shape bottom wall trap construction was better than those two other constructions. Only 6.78% of snails with l ³ 4.27 cm could escape the rectangular shape bottom wall trap construction. Whereas 41.90% and 17.46% of snail shells with l ³ 4.27 cm could escape from both the diamond mesh bottom wall trap construction. According to selectivity curve, the rectangular shape bottom wall trap construction could retained snails with shells length of l ³ 4.33 cm. The two others retained shells length of l ³ 4.14 cm and l ³ 4.60 cm

Volumetric, embodied and geologic geopolitics of the seabed:offshore tin mining in Indonesia

This paper introduces empirical research on tin divers’ bodily experience of seabed mining concerning offshore Bangka and Belitung Islands, Indonesia, critical seabed mining sites. To govern the seabed off these Islands, ‘classic’ geopolitical approaches such as marine spatial planning (MSP) and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) hierarchically construct the seabed through two-dimensional mapping and policy, occluding specific tin diving practices on the seabed. Moving from such flat geopolitical understandings of the ocean floor, this paper offers new engagements with feminist geopolitics, volumetric territory and social ocean studies to think about the seabed through its volume, the bodies that are immersed within and animate it, and its geologic materiality. It does so by examining intimate tin diving relations between human bodies, volumetric space and ore bodies in relation to the contemporary geopolitical making of the seabed territory. Whilst many scholars have engaged with this volumetric-embodied-geologic approach, this paper argues that the nexus of volumetric space, bodies (embodied experiences) and geologic materiality in tin diving are a crucial tactical point for diverse mining governance actors, sustaining dangerous labour, mining accidents and death in tin diving.</p

Path-Integral Formulation of Casimir Effects in Supersymmetric Quantum Electrodynamics

The Casimir effect is an interesting phenomenon in the sense that it provides us with one of the primitive means of extracting the energy out of the vacuum. Since the original work of Casimir a number of works have appeared in extending the result to the case of more general topological and dynamical configurations of the boundary condition and to the circumstances at finite temperature and gravity. In the studies of the Casimir effects it is common to assume the free electromagnetic field in the bounded region. It may be interesting to extend our arguments for fields other than the electromagnetic field. The Casimir effect due to the free fermionic fields has been investigated by several authors and has been found to result in an attractive force under the suitable physical boundary conditions.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figures, REVTe

Analisis Faktor Yang Berpengaruh Terhadap Kemampuan Ibu Hamil Dalam Melakukan Deteksi Dini Risiko Perdarahan Pasca Persalinan Dan Preeklamsia

Tujuan: Menganalisis faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap kemampuan ibu hamil dalam melakukan deteksi dini risiko perdarahan pasca persalinan dan preeklamsia.Bahan dan Metode: Jenis penelitian observational analitik menggunakan desain cross sectional. Populasi di Puskesmas Sawahan 171 ibu hamil dan di Puskesmas Mulyorejo 164 ibu hamil. Jumlah sampel 62 ibu hamil disetiap puskesmas. Sampling yang dipakai adalah “probability sampling” dengan tehnik “Stratified Random Sampling”. Pengumpulan data menggunakan data primer dengan instrumen kuesioner secara wawancara. Data diolah dan dihitung dengan tabel frekuensi dan tabulasi silang selanjutnya dianalisa dengan Analisis Regresi Logistik Sederhana dan Analisis Regresi Logistik Ganda dengan tingkat kemaknaan 5% (p = 0,05).Hasil: Hasil analisis regresi logistik ganda Puskesmas Sawahan menunjukkan variabel keterpaparan informasi tanda bahaya nilai sig 0,033 dan nilai Exp (B) 5,657 merupakan variabel yang signifikan. Sedangkan hasil analisis regresi logistik ganda Puskesmas Mulyorejo menunjukkan variabel keteraturan ANC nilai sig 0,029 dan nilai Exp (B) 0,244 merupakan variabel signifikan.Simpulan: Puskesmas Sawahan merupakan puskesmas dengan Angka Kematian Ibu tinggi. Selain itu kondisi ibu hamil kurang aktif untuk tanggap dengan kehamilannya sehingga pengetahuan tentang kehamilan dan resikonya sangat kurang. Di Puskesmas Mulyorejo mayoritas ibu hamil di semua umur rutin melakukan pemeriksaan ANC serta mampu melakukan deteksi dini risiko perdarahan pascapersalinan dan preeklamsia dengan baik karena Puskesmas Mulyorejo memiliki wadah informasi yaitu memiliki poli preeklamsia sehingga ibu hamil maupun pasien lain ataupun keluarga pasien dapat lebih banyak menerima informasi seputar tanda bahaya kehamilan khususnya preeklamsia
