The Development of the Constituent Social Class as Political Participation in Banda Aceh and Meulaboh

Indonesia adheres to a democratic system of government. Each citizen, on the basis of the choice of ordinary people, chooses free political participation and then changes their direction as a sympathizer. Today, the excitement of political participation in Indonesian society to spread on Aceh has been somewhat hurt because some people have changed the political climate to be bad. This is reflected in the previous political participation side by side to deliver rhetoric to reap the voice of the people, but it has become a competition for each other. The purpose of this study is to find out what types of political participation occurred in constituents in Banda Aceh and West Aceh and who are the actors or groups that weaken or strengthen political participation in the constituents. The research method used is a qualitative approach with informants consisting of key informants, subject informants and non-subject informants. The results showed that the types of political participation in the constituents of Banda Aceh and West Aceh were very different and that sympathizers and political actors continued to strengthen and weaken the constituents. It is expected that this research will be a comparative study of the dynamics of policy in the Aceh region.

Sustainabilty status and index of Aceh palm oil in central production of West Region Nagan Raya District

Nagan Raya District as the center of oil palm production in the Western Region of Aceh with an area of 100,547 Ha of oil palm plantations has the power to support Aceh’s economy. Sustainability analysis of Multi Dimensional Scaling using the Rap-Insus Palm Oil technique shows that oil palm plantations in Nagan Raya Regency have a fairly sustainable status. Supporting the sustainability of the economic and environmental dimensions has a fairly sustainable status, but the social and security dimensions are less sustainable. The highest sensitive leverage attributes from the economic dimension was the income of oil palm growers, the social dimension wase coaching in the communities around the plantation companies, the environmental dimension was forest fires, and the security dimension was facilitation of former GAM combatants to become oil palm growers. However, the lowest sensitive leverage attribute of the economic dimension was other economic growth due to oil palm, the social dimension was the K3 program in plantation companies, the environmental dimension was land suitability for oil palm plants, and the security dimension was oil palm in suppressing cannabis cultivation.

Innovation study of the leading commodity agroecological zone in the Central Aceh Region

The Central Region of Aceh including of Bener Meriah, Central Aceh, Gayo Lues and Southeast Aceh districts, are the highland area of Aceh which has the potential to produce various agricultural commodities. However, the development of agricultural patterns in changing land uses has an impact on a sustainable agricultural system. This Agroecological Zone Innovation study aims to identify development priorities for leading agricultural commodities and the suitability of commodities cultivated by farmers with existing land. The results of the study show that the plants are included in the main development priority group, exist in the community, are proposed for development by farmers and are suitable for development based on the analysis of the expert system in Bener Meriah are coffee, tomatoes, avocados and oranges; in Central Aceh does not exist, in Gayo Lues are shallots and red chilies; and in Southeast Aceh is corn. Expert system analysis with agroecological zone input shows that in general the four districts in the Central Region of Aceh are suitable for the development of plantation, paddy and secondary, vegetables and fruits crops where their locations are spread across almost all sub-districts of Aceh Central Region.

PENERAPAN DIVERSI TERHADAP ANAK YANG BERKONFLIK DENGAN HUKUM MENURUT QANUN ACEH NOMOR 9 TAHUN 2008 TENTANG PEMBINAAN KEHIDUPAN ADAT DAN ADAT ISTIADAT DAN UNDANG-UNDANG NOMOR 11 TAHUN 2012 TENTANG SISTEM PERADILAN PIDANA ANAK

The background is by two law applications that apply in Aceh, the first law that generally applies in Indonesia and the second one that applies specifically in Aceh, the Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the System Juvenile Criminal Court is a way out for better handling of children conflict with the law. The law regulates diversion where there are two important things that have a special place in the SPPA Law, namely restorative justice and diversion.
 The results showed that the resolution of the problem of children conflict with the law in Aceh consists of two legal applications, starting with the mediation process according to Aceh Qanun Number 9 of 2008 concerning fostering customary life and customs Development with the aim that these problems can be resolved amicably according to the Decree Joint between the Governor of Aceh and the Aceh Regional Police and the Aceh Traditional Council No 189/677/2011 dated 20 December 2011 concerning the Implementation of the Gampong and Mukim Adat Courts, but if during the mediation process no agreement is found then proceed to the legal process according to the Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Criminal Justice System for Children.

Effect of regional planning on social welfare in the Islands and mainland of Aceh Province

ABSTRACT The aim of the study is to analyze the effect of regional planning on social welfare in Sabang Islands and mainland Aceh Tengah of Aceh Province. From the statistical results, a mathematical model was obtained for Sabang City: Y = 0.742 + 0.409 X2, while for Central Aceh it was: Y = 2,667–0.167 X2. It is used to interprete the variables that have influence on the HDI of archipelagic cities in Aceh Province as well as that of the plains. Apart from health variable, the other variables constantly have negative effects on the HDI of the Islands. It can be interpreted that the average contribution of other variables outside the model have negative effect on the HDI of the province. This is evidenced by the GRDP (Gross Regional Domestic Product) economic structure and GRDP growth rate based on the business sector of Sabang City. The most dominant is the construction companies that absorb 31% and 8.5% human resources. This indicates that the HDI of Sabang City, which is the administration area of the Islands, is 75.77; while the mainland of Central Aceh even without compulsory basic service variables has a positive constant value. Though lack of basic service variables can negatively affect its HDI. This is because its economic structure is based on the business sector and the rate of PDRB which affects the large-scale trade and transportation sector. However, the mainland region of Central Aceh is very industrious, does not depend on government programs and service and has high mobility and accessibility to businesses.

Simulation of corrosion field measurement on reinforced concrete using BEM

Reinforced concrete (RC) corrosion is a leading of structural deterioration and premature degradation for the infrasturctures, with significant affected for safety, durability and reability. Therefore, early assessment of RC corrosion is important to prevent deterioration of the structure. The objective of this paper is to apply Boundary Element Method (BEM) for improving reinforced concrete (RC) corrosion assessment using field measurement data. In this study, the potential on whole domain of concrete structures was modeled by Laplace equation. The Laplace equation was solved by BEM, hence the potential on the concrete structure can be determined. The field data were measured by using half-cell potential technique and collected from an existing house in Aceh region that struck by the 2004 Sumatra tsunami. The simulation results show the use of BEM can improve the RC corrosion assessment. According to ASTM C876, the distribution of potential values on the concrete surface above the corroded area were in range -200 mV to -350 mV that indicated active corrosion was occurred. It can be inferred, the method can improve the field measurement data since it has capability to predict the corrosion profiles of reinforcing steel in more precise.

The Meaning of Burning Incense Ritual as a Preservation of Cultural Values and Beliefs of the Community of Nagan Raya-Aceh

The ritual of burning incense at Gudang Buloh Mosque, which has existed for hundreds of years, is still upheld by the community of Nagan Raya. This ritual is an ancestral tradition from time to time that has been carried out from generation to generation until now it has been developing in some people in the southwest region of Aceh. The purpose of this study was to investigate the meaning of the burning incense ritual at Gudang Buloh Mosque to the people. This research method is qualitative. The researchers went to the site to collect data. After the researchers made observations, received data from various sources, and interviews, the researcher analyzed them to use as study material. The research site is located in the Syeikh Syaikhuna Gudang Buloh mosque, Ujong Pasie village, Kuala district, Nagan Raya Reign, Aceh Province. The results showed that; First, the ritual of burning incense in the mosque, which is a legacy of the past to this day, is still preserved and has even evolved and become the beliefs of some people in and around it. Second, the ritual of burning incense is guided by the Khadam of the mosque to every community who has a desire so that the ceremony is believed to contain sacred values. Third, from the perspective of social communication, the ritual of burning incense is at the same time a process of socialization for the transmission of ancient values that are exalted by society, and through social communication, the consciousness of the community can build a fraternal bond that what the community believes can be achieved. Based on this belief, the ritual of burning incense is maintained.

Effects of Extreme Climate Change in 2016 and Its Correlation with EWH Variability in Indonesia

Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite mission, which is dedicated specifically to the Earth’s gravity change monitoring, also can be used to observe water mass variations. GRACE data is provided through temporal mass variations, primarily water volume variations such as surface water and groundwater changes. GRACE satellite data can be obtained in monthly spherical harmonics coefficients depicting the change of surface mass density. This study investigates the effects of extreme climate change during 2016 in Indonesia by utilizing the GRACE data. Here, the surface mass density change is converted into equivalent water height (EWH). Since the amount of rainfall in Indonesia indirectly dominates the water mass variability, the EWH is then compared with the precipitation over the same period of this study. The result showed that during 2016, the highest and lowest EWH was presented in August with the highest value of 23.527 cm over the Aceh region and the lowest EWH of 0.665 cm over the Nusa Tenggara region. The most increased precipitation during 2016 is in the Kalimantan region, with a value of 0.610 mm/hr in February. The lowest one is in the Nusa Tenggara region, with a value of 0.009 mm/hr in August. For comparison with the EWH, the precipitation rates were converted into monthly precipitation in cm. The correlations between EWH and precipitations variabilities showed different results in different study zones, with the highest correlation in zone 6, which covers North Kalimantan. In comparison, the lowest correlation occurred in zone 25, which covers Yamdena and Tragan islands_ area in the Moluccas

Spectral Analysis and SARIMA Model for Forecasting Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) and Rainfall in West Aceh Regency

Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) in the Indian Ocean is one of the climatic phenomena that affects climate conditions in western Indonesia. West of Aceh Regency is one of the districts in Aceh Province which borders and faces the Indian Ocean directly, so it has a significant impact due to climate events caused by the IOD phenomenon. Analysis for examines the occurrence of climate phenomena is needed to minimize the adverse effects due to the IOD phenomenon. Spectral analysis by calculating the periodogram and the SARIMA model for forecasting historical data. The data used are monthly data on the Indian Ocean IOD index and rainfall in West of Aceh in the period January 2010 to December 2019. The purpose of this study was to determine the periodicity of the IOD index data and rainfall, get a model and obtain the results of forecasting the IOD index and rainfall, and see the relationship of IOD to rainfall in West of Aceh. The results obtained in the spectral analysis are the characteristics of changes in the IOD index tend to increase or decrease in the IOD index every 17 months and the characteristics of changes in rainfall in West of Aceh tend to increase or decrease in rainfall every 6 months. The best model for predicting IOD index data is the SARIMA model (2,1,3)(0,1,1)17. Forecasting for 2020 and 2021 tend to show a downward trend in 2020 and an upward trend in 2021. While the best model for predicting West of Aceh rainfall data is the SARIMA model (2,0.2)(0,1,1)6. Forecasting for 2020 and 2021 tend to experience high rainfall in April and October for each year. The relationship obtained by the IOD index to rainfall in West of Aceh is when the IOD index is in a positive phase, rainfall in the West of Aceh region tends to decrease. Conversely, when the IOD index is in the negative phase, rainfall in the West of Aceh region tends to increase.

Relationship of Rainfall and IOD Phenomena by using Spectral Analysis and SARIMA

Rainfall is very essential for life and it has complexity process. To obtain the relationship between rainfall in time-spatial of Aceh region and the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) phenomenon, we used spectral-analysis and SARIMA model. Identification results show that the rainfall data monthly in Aceh Barat (ABR), Aceh Besar (ABS), Sabang (S) and Aceh Utara (AU) has a similar pattern. However, due to the sensitivity of the occurrence of the IOD, the ABR region has higher rainfall compared to ABS, S and AU regions. Rainfall in all regions observation has a peak time, namely at the end of the year (October-November-December). It has the negative peak of the IOD event occurred in September-2016 while the positive peak point occurred in October-2019. Overall, the normal phase occurred from January to April-2019. In peak season in ABR and ABS, the rainfall intensity increased. The results showed that the rainfall model in ABR and S has normal distribution, whereas in ABS and AU has nonnormal distribution. Furthermore, the rainfall model in ABR with SARIMA(2,0,2)(0,1,1)6 is the best model compared to model of three other regions with high accuracy forecasting.

THE EXISTENCE OF RENCONG MAKING AS A CULTURAL PRODUCT IN ACEH: A STUDY IN BAET RAYA DISTRICT ACEH BESAR REGENCY

This article is entitled "The Existence of Rencong Making as a Cultural Product in Aceh (A Study in Baet Raya, Sukamakmur District, Aceh Besar Regency)". Rencong is a typical traditional weapon that has become an icon of Aceh region, as it is called Tanoh Rencong (The Land of Rencong). In Aceh Besar, rencong is traditionally produced by the community. One of the rencong production areas is in Baet Raya, Sukamakmur District. The problems to be studied are how the existence of rencong making in Baet Raya, what are the obstacles faced by craftsmen in Baet Raya and how the community and Aceh Besar district government respond to the rencong making in Baet Raya. The method used in this research is descriptive analysis. Data was collected through observation, interviews and documentation. The selection of informants was completed by purposive sampling. From the results of the research, it is known that the existence of rencong making in Baet Raya continues to decline each year, as it could be seen from the decreasing number of teumpeun and rencong craftsmen. This is due to the many constraints in the production process such as lack of capital, high raw material prices, lack of public interest in rencong and it is difficult to take it out by plane if it is not decorated in a frame while the craftsmen could not afford with enough capital. The people of Baet Raya are grateful for the activity of rencong making because, in addition to increasing income, it preserves cultural products. On the other hand, there are also those who regret it as many youth decide to work in teumpeun instead of continuing their education to a higher level. The effort made by the community in preserving rencong making in Baet Raya is by teaching the young generation the skills of making rencong from the early age, while the form of conservation from the government is to exhibit the rencong at every important event such as the Aceh Cultural Week (PKA). However, the craftsmen admit that they have never received assistance from the government any more, especially since Covid-19 and it affects all rencong-making activities in Baet Raya. Therefore, government support is needed for the continuity of the existence of rencong making in Baet Raya.

The Utilization of GGMplus Data Using Derivative Method and 3D Modeling of Subsurface Structure for Trienggadeng Fault Identification in Pidie Jaya, Aceh Region

The Pidie Jaya, Aceh earthquake occurred on December 7th, 2016 that caused damage to the northern coastal area. This event was caused by a local fault (Trienggadeng Fault). The existence of this fault is close to settlements so we need the mitigation efforts to reduce the casualties and material loss. One of those efforts is mapping the fault location by using the gravity method that is sensitive to subsurface rock density changes. In this study, we used GGMplus gravity data then processed with derivative analysis (First Horizontal Derivative and Second Vertical Derivative) to determine the location and type of fault. By performing the slices, we found that this fault is oblique with strike-slip dominant tends to reverse fault. The azimuth discovered through fault position traces that the value is 47.5°. Then, we use 3D inversion modeling to obtain a subsurface structure model. The average density is 2.3 g/cm3. The model shows a distribution of limestone and sandstone sedimentary rocks reaches a 4 km depth. The clay sediments follow the river flow. In the southern part, there are andesite and granite igneous rocks. The difference in rock density within 3 km and below indicates the existence of the Trienggadeng Fault.

Identification of β-Caryophyllene (BCP) in Aceh patchouli essential oil (PEO) using gas chromatography-mass pectrophotometry (GC-MS)

This study aimed to determine the composition of β-Caryophyllene (BCP) content in patchouli oil from various regions in Aceh. The data from GC-MS analysis can also describe the type of BCP isomer most commonly found in Aceh patchouli. This research used Aceh Pogostemon cablin Benth patchouli oil from 17 different locations. Samples were analyzed using TSQ™ 9000 Triple Quadrupole GC-MS/MS (Thermo Scientific) with TraceGOLD TG-1MS GC Columns. The mean BCP retention time was 14.64 minutes, with a standard deviation (SD) of 0.16. Only one type of BCP compound isomer appeared, namely Bicyclo [7.2.0] undec-4-ene, 4,11,11-trimethyl-8-methylene-, [1R- (1R*, 4Z, 9S*)]. The results also showed that the average BCP level was 5.51%. Aceh patchouli contains a much higher BCP level than the minimum commercial target (3.4-3.5%). The MS spectrum data also showed a high similarity between the patchouli oil sample fragmentation and the compound library.

Analysis of elements in Cocoa seeds (Theobroma cacao L.) using Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS)

Cocoa seeds well known contains many antioxidant, thus it is really useful to human health. The elemental content of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) was examined using LIBS. The Cocoa seed was collected from Pidie Jaya Regency in the special autonomy region of Aceh, Indonesia. The examination was carried out is using LIBS using an Nd-YAG laser (Q-Smart 850 model, 1064 nm, 5.5 ns, 10 Hz). The laser energy was varied from 12 mJ to 70 mJ. The tested cocoa is dried first, mashed and shaped into pellets with a radius of 3 cm and a thickness of 0.5 cm. The laser beam was focused on the pellet surface under air surrounding gas. The surrounding gas pressure was also varied. The emission spectrum was acquired for various experimental conditions. It was found in the recorded emission spectrum that many inorganic elements can clearly be detected such as Al, Mg, Mn, Ca, K, P, Fe, Cu and also main organic elements such as H, C, N, and O. The emission spectrum is dominated by the organic elements of C, H, O and N. The emission spectrum features changes with energy and surrounding gas pressure. The plasma characteristics in term of temperature and electron number density was examined. This results shows that the minor and trace elements can detected be detected clearly along with main organic element in the cocoa seeds using the emerging analytical tool of LIBS.

Composition and catch number of fish landings on the eastern coast of the Aceh region

Information on the composition and number of catches that comprise fish landings is an essential component of fisheries management. Because such data is especially limited with regard to the eastern coast of the Aceh region of Sumatra, the present study examined fish landing characteristics for this region. Data were collected from November 24 to December 24, 2019, in seven fish landing sites (TPI) in three districts (Aceh Utara, Bireuen, and Lhokseumawe) on the eastern coast of the Aceh region. Fishes were recorded daily in each TPI during the study period, and a total of 32 fish categories were identified. Pelagic fish dominated the catch: longtail tuna, scad, island mackerel, yellowfin tuna, Carangidae, frigate tuna, skipjack tuna, albacore, kawakawa, and white snapper were the most landed fish during the survey period. The study also showed marine fisheries production to be 181,994 kg/month, or an average of 7,000 kg/day. Across the three districts, Bireuen had the highest fisheries production (122,683 kg), followed by Aceh Utara (35,092 kg), and Lhokseumawe (24,220 kg). This study provides baseline data that will be valuable in developing an effective fisheries management strategy plan in the region.

DAMPAK PEMIKIRAN ORIENTALIS DI INDONESIA PADA MASA KOLONIAL

The Indonesian people had been colonized by the Dutch for 360 years. During that time, many things were done by the Dutch towards Indonesia. The policies issued by the Dutch were much influenced by the advice given by their political advisors. Political advisers (Orientalists) who are quite well known are Stanford Thomas Raffles, William Masrden, and Cristian Snouck Hurgronje. These three political advisors gave accurate advice to the Dutch government in order to influence patterns of social life in Indonesian society. In the field of religion, especially Islam, Thomas S. Raffles and Marsden argue that the teachings of Islam do not give the slightest color to Indonesian culture. Indonesian culture is purely dug out of local customs. Yet in reality, it is the teachings of Islam that characterize the lives of Indonesian people. In the political field, the Dutch were able to conquer the Aceh region on the advice of Snouck Hurgronje who had previously mastered the ins and outs of the Aceh region. In the area of ​​customary law, Snouck with his receptie theory says that indigenous peoples basically only apply customary law; Islamic law can only apply if the norms of Islamic law have been accepted by the community as Adat law. The receptie-Snouck theory, after independence, can be broken by indigenous jurists by proposing their own theories, namely; first, the receptie exit theory by Hazairin. Second, the theory of receptio a contrario by H. Sayuti Thalib, and Third, the theory of existence by H. Ichtijanto SA.

The importance of tropical edible fruit plants for tribal communities in East Aceh region, Indonesia

The study investigated the diversity and use of tropical edible fruits consumed by tribal communities in East Aceh, Indonesia. The plant materials were randomly collected from four villages in two subdistricts, while local knowledge was gathered through a survey and in-depth interviews. Data were collected by surveying 80 people, 20 from each of four study areas, simple random sampling selected for this study. A total of 32 tropical edible fruit plant species were found in the study area. The fruits are rich in macro and micro-nutrients. Besides being a source of food, they can also be used as remedies for various diseases. This plant has the potential to be used as a commercial crop to increase food shortages, tribal economy, and to regenerate degraded lands. In addition, this study could contribute to educating the younger generation on the importance of tropical edible fruit plants.
