    This paper is a component of my conceptual foundation paper due to PhD field work in Indonesia to understand the possibility and the chance for developing country such as Indonesia to strengthen cluster building alongside The Triple Helix model within the region of Java. This paper is a conceptual paper based on case study in Indonesia related to the Triple Helix and cluster approach for chosen Industrial Clusters in Java. In this paper, the focus will be on six selected industrial clusters across the Java region. They are Gresik Industrial District in East Java, Tugu Wijaya Semarang in Central Java, Sentul Bogor in West Java, Jababeka in Bekasi, Kujang Industrial District, and Kawasan Berikat Nusantara in Jakarta. In conjunction with the fact in Indonesian industrial condition, Indonesian government initiated the setting up of industrial district which later known as 2 industrial cluster to make existence easier for both domestic and international investors by providing all necessary infrastructure, facilities and housing in one safe location - at a reasonable cost - thus providing a secure base for industry and manufacturing. Regarding clustering approach, Indonesia has a very long tradition of SMEs (Small and Medium Sized Enterprises) cluster around similar activities. In 2002, the cluster comprised approximately 3700 firms mostly SMEs employing 58.000 permanent workers (Loebis and Schmitz, 2005). They are usually craft industries and export oriented driven. About 70% of the cluster production is exported while the rest is sold on the domestic markets. However, little is known about the critical success factors that determine economic development of cities and regions and empirical studies that draw lessons for policy are scarce (Tichy, 1998), specifically for implementing cluster approach in industry/manufacturing sector in Indonesia. Moreover, there are good reasons to doubt to what extent a purely sectoral view is adequate to analyse region economic growth and to design policies. There are many indications that urban economic growth increasingly seems to emerge from fruitful cooperation between economic actors, who form innovative networks. It is in these geographically concentrated network configurations, or ‘cluster’ that value-added and employment growth in urban regions is realised. This demands a new policy approach in urban economic development, specifically for Indonesian study. Accordingly, it is motivating to investigate the process of cluster building in industrial district in Java region as the important region due to economic, social, and political condition. Thus, details can be read in the following section within this paper.Cluster, Triple Helix, SMEs,

    This paper is based on the conceptual and theoretical analysis regarding the triple helix model as the demand or a challenge for developing country, particularly the Indonesian case study under investigation. The paper will discuss the essential stages required to establish a robust synergy between three different actors: the university, the industry and the government alongside the local context in Indonesia, mainly the role of university in providing help for SMEs in Indonesia together with the government or other institutional developing agencies. This paper will also explore the promotion of SMEs by clustering approach as the fact that Indonesian SMEs are scattered across the region. Furthermore, this paper will analyse the potential strengths and weaknesses within Indonesian SMEs, of setting up appropriate strategic movements for the future of the triple helix paradigm itself. It will start with the lessons, learned from the implementation of the triple helix implementation in the developed countries then it will look at the local Indonesian context in order to bridge the gaps within the actors involved.Triple Helix, Cluster Approach, SMEs (Small and Medium Sized Enterprises), University – Industry - Government Relations

    ABSTRACK This research takes its background from the increasing growth of population in the city of Denpasar is mainly caused by the migration factor. Migration or movement of people is a difficult thing to be avoided by living things, including humans . Sometimes the movement is going on without any prior planning. Sometimes migration is done in a way that is deliberate as a shortcut to get to a direction of success coveted by everyone . It is on the one hand , a new problem in the administration sector of population that is associated with the administration of KIPEM.The concept of service quality a concept that includes the value of internal and external about formation of a system of services that are associated with public satisfaction. This concept contains variables KIPEM Service Quality Leadership (X) as an independent factor and Public Satisfaction (Y) as the dependent variable. The research shows as follows: (1) there is a simultaneously significant influence mostly from service quality variable to the public satisfaction. R Square(R2) is 0,943. It can be concluded that the influence of service quality concept through the public satisfaction can be 93,3% by service quality (X). (2) F-test shows that variables of service quality influence significantly to the public satisfaction. This can be seen from F-count that is 80,041 with the rate of significance 0, 000. Therefore, the variables of service quality (X) influence the public satisfaction (Y) significantly

    Hasil Cek Similiritas Traditional detoxifcation of wild yam (Dioscorea hispida Dennst) tuber in chips processing at East Java, Indonesia

    Dioscoreaceae or yam is a family of tuber that comprises many members with variability in utilization and their intensity of consumption. This family has wide variability and is used not only as food but also for medical purposes due to their bioactive compounds. One of the Dioscoreaceae family is wild yam (Dioscorea hispida Dennst), rich in carbohydrates but has an obstacle of high cyanide level. Historically, along with cassava, wild yam is the staple food in some places in Indonesia. There is a long history of traditional detoxifcation methods of wild yam with slightly diferent steps among diferent places. The shifting of staple food to rice excludes wild yam consumption. One of the remaining products from wild yam is chips. Wild yam chips are a traditional snack that is also produced by traditional detoxifcation. This paper is aimed to review the scientifc basis for each step in traditional wild yam chips processing to remove cyanogenic compounds. This review was based on the observations of traditional wild yam tuber chip processing and unstructured interview with the wild yam tuber chip maker at 6 locations in East Java, Indonesia. Relevant literature was used to explain the scientifc basis of the detoxifcation methods based on the defnite inclusion and exclusion criteria. Also, the variability of processing methods was compared among diferent locations. In general, the steps of traditional detoxifcation during wild yam tuber chips processing are slicing the peeled wild yam tubers, mixing with the rubbing ash, pressing, drying, soaking, boiling/steaming, and sun drying. Slicing, rubbing, and pressing in chips processing is aimed to convert cyanogenic glycoside into acetone cyanohydrin. The alkaline pH due to ash rubbing makes spontaneous decomposition of acetone cyanohydrin into HCN. HCN is easily removed by dissolution and heating (drying and steaming/boiling). Thermal treatment also spontaneously decomposes cyanohydrin into free HCN. All of the cyanogenic compounds are water-soluble which soaking and washing are aimed to remove all compounds. Consecutive, complicated, and time-consuming processing completely removes cyanogenic compounds and produces safe wild yam tuber chips. The key fnding of this review is the purpose of every step in wild yam tuber detoxifcation has a scientifc basis to reduce cyanogenic compounds gradually. This process produces a very low cyanide level in the fnal product. In conclusion, traditional detoxication reduces cyanogenic compounds to a safe level

    In daily conversation, Javanese people tend to mix Javanese with Indonesian when they communicate with other persons. The mixing of Javanese and Indonesian not only happens in the daily communication, but also in Javanese wedding ceremony. There are two problems which the writer wants to answer: what codes are used in Javanese wedding ceremony and what the reasons of Javanese people in using those codes. In answering those two questions, the writer made an observation and interview in order that she could get the data for her study. The data which she got were analyzed based on the underline theories. The theories which were used in this study is the theory of Language use, Javanese Speech levels, Wedding Ceremony in Javanese, and the previous study. The results of the analysis leads to the findings of the study. Indonesian and Javanese are used in Javanese wedding ceremony. The use of those codes are mixed because Javanese people, especially the young generation of Javanese people do not master Javanese very well. Here are the reasons of using Krama Inggil in Javanese wedding ceremony: 1. Krama Inggil which is considred as a sacred language by Javanese people. Since wedding ceremony is a sacred event, Krama Inggil which is considered as the sacred code is used in Javanese wedding ceremony. 2. As it a tradition, Krama Inggil is used in Javanese wedding ceremony. 3. Krama Inggil is used in Javanese wedding ceremony because the relatives of the bride do not understand Indonesian well. 4. Krama Inggil... to the audience since the speaker do not know the listeners very well. That is why, imperative verbs are not used here. 5. Krama Inggil is one of the culture of Javanese people. Therefore, in order to maintain the culture, Krama Inggil is still used in Javanese wedding ceremony. 6. Krama Inggil which is used in Javanese wedding ceremony is different from which is used in the daily conversation. In Javanese wedding ceremony the verbs always star with suffix ‘ha’ while in the daily communication the verbs do not start with suffix ‘ha’. 7. Krama Inggil is used in Javanese wedding ceremony because the bride and the bridegroom are considered as the king and a quessn in a day, so they make the situation is really like in a Central Javanese Royal Place. 8. Krama Inggil is used to describe the symbols which are used in Javanese wedding ceremony. Because, it is also used to utter he proverbs about the bride and the bridegroom. The writer also finds out the other code used in Javanese wedding ceremony. The code is Indonesian. The reasons of using this code are: 1. The bride, the bridegroom, and the guests do not understand Krama Inggil well. Therefore, the use of Krama Inggil is mixed with Indonesia. 2. Indonesian is used in Javanese wedding ceremony as a means of the translation of Krama Inggil. 3. Indonesian is used when the representatives of the bride and the bridegroom advise them. Instead of Krama Inggil and Indonesian which are used in Javanese wedding ceremony, Krama Madya and Ngoo are also used. The reasons why Krama Madya is used in Javanese wedding ceremony more or less are the same as the reasons why Krama Inggil is used in Javanese wedding ceremony. It is because the use of those codes is usually together. While Ngoko is used when the MC makes joke with the couple. Ngoko is used not only when the MC makes joke with the couple, it is also used in other events of Javanese wedding ceremony, for example in the event of injak telur and pangkon. The use of those mentioned codes above is moxed each other. The mixing which may happen is the mixing of Indonesian with Ngoko or Ngoko with Krama Inggil and Krama madya or Krama Inggil and Indonesian. From the explanation above the writer concludes that there are two codes used in Javanese wedding ceremony. They are Javanese and Indonesian Javanese itself has three variants: Krama Inggil, Krama Madya, and Ngoko. The use of those codes are mixed each other depends on the situation and topics which are spoken. Besides, the mixing of those codes has to consider the participants. Since the participants of the Javanese wedding ceremony are young generation of Javanese people, the use of those codes have to be mixed. Thus, this study is expected to be able to enrich the English students about the Javanese culture and happiness. Besides ii is also … language … from age to age along with demands of the needs of the environment and also tell to non-Javanese people that Javanese has three speech levels; Krama Inggil, Krama madya and Ngoko, in which the use of those three speech levels has to consider the participants, the topics and the situation

    No full text
    This thesis is on the subject of the development and growth of the Indonesian automotive cluster which is mainly driven by me Japanese Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) Toyota and Honda, through knowledge transfer within subsidiaries and suppliers. The MNEs are the primary agents of knowledge transfer into the subsidiaries in the cluster. These leading companies are the key to building and sustaining cluster growth. As a direct consequence of this. cluster policy has become an important agenda in Indonesia to advance the progress of current local industry, particularly for the core industrial prime movers such as the automotive cluster. The automotive cluster as the focus of this thesis is located in industrial estates across the Java Region, the most densely populated island as well as a key region due IQ its geographical location and socio-economic and political importance. Accordingly. in order to understand how Japanese automotive MNEs in the automotive industry integrates with the Indonesian automotive cluster. This research aims to investigate the development of knowledge transfer in the automotive cluster based on Toyota and Honda case studies in me Java region. I focus only on Toyota and Honda because of their dominance.EThOS - Electronic Theses Online ServiceGBUnited Kingdo
