TOURIST MOVEMENT PATTERNS IN THE MAMMINASATA REGION

The purpose of this paper was to identify the pattern of tourist movement and spatial distribution of tourist routes in the Mamminasata Region and its pull factors. In this context, pull factors influence the formation of travel routes to the Mamminasata Region. A total of 100 respondents as domestic tourists were willing to participate in filling out questionnaires found at tourist attractions and at hotels as the starting point for travel. Movement patterns carried out by tourists in the Mamminasata Region resulted in four movement routes including; First, the Fort Rotterdam-Maros Fort Area which forms a Single Point pattern with a Travel Duration of 1 day. The starting point was at the hotel around Fort Rotterdam, Makassar City then moves to Maros destination. Second, Losari Beach Tourism Area-Maros-Gowa-Takalar. which forms a Base Site pattern with a travel duration of 3 days and 2 nights. The movement pattern on this route resembles a ray spread with one centre point, Makassar City. Integrated area-based governance was needed in the Maminasata area through the establishment of the Mamminasata Tourism System. Thus, tourism policy can unravel the problem of regional equity as the vision of Mammiansata development which creates a national growth centre.

Meiobenthos Community as a Description of Environmental Changes at Losari Beach, Makassar

This research aims to describe the ecological values of meiobenthos as a bioindicator of water quality at Losari Beach, Makassar. The sampling method used was the purposive sampling method. The determination of the research location was also based on previous research which described the coastal location of Losari Beach as being polluted by chemicals and dangerous metals. The research data were then analyzed statistically to calculate meiobenthos density, diversity index, and uniformity index. The research results showed that the abundance of meiobenthos found during the research was 66946 indv/m2, consisting of 12 phyla and 91 species/genus. The stations at the mouth of the Tallo River, Jeneberang River, and Tanjung Merdeka are research stations that have high abundance. The phylum oligochaeta, ostracoda, tunicata, and ciliophora are phyla with high abundance compared to other phyla. Based on the research results, it was concluded that this phylum has a high level of adaptation to the entry of various pollutants into water bodies. The diversity and uniformity index shows that the meiobenthos types in Losari are classified as having a high and even diversity index. The dominance index also shows that no single meiobenthos type is dominant, except for those in the reclamation project area. Temperature, current speed, depth, brightness, salinity, pH, DO, seawater nitrate, and seawater phosphate have a correlation or relationship with the abundance of meiobenthos on Losari Beach, Makassar.

MACROZOOBENTHOS DIVERSITY AS A BIOINDICATOR OF WATER QUALITY AROUND THE CENTER POINT OF INDONESIA (CPI)

Benthos are invertebrate animals that live at the bottom of the waters. One biota that can be used as a biological parameter in determining the quality of a waters is macrozoobenthos. The waters around the Center Point of Indonesia (CPI) are one of the waters that have received a lot of additional organic matter and other pollutant materials through the estuaries of the canals that flow into the waters of Losari Beach. The study was conducted by sampling macrozoobenthos at each station using Ejkman Grab at each station 3 times sampling then sieved using a benthos sieve measuring 1 mm. In addition, measurements of environmental factors were carried out at each station with 3 replications directly in the field and analyzed in the laboratory. The results of the macrozoobenthos sampling study obtained 4 macrozoobenthos classes found at the study site, namely the Gastropod Class (4 species), the Crustacea Class, the Ophiuroidea Class, and the Oligochaeta Class each 1 species. The highest diversity and abundance of macrozoobenthos was found at Station 6 which is suspected because this station has a sandy sediment texture and sediment DOM content and high concentrations of water solubility of oxygen which support the life of makzoobenthos. Macrozoobenthos diversity at the study site (waters around the Center Point of Indonesia) is low with a diversity index (H') value of 0.00 - 0.16. The high abundance of makzoobenthos at Station 5 and Station 6 is characterized by high current velocity, sediment DOM and high oxygen concentration.

Socialization of regional regulations regarding waste management to increase awareness of environmental cleanliness for MSMEs

Environmental management has become a major issue for Partner Groups, especially those in the Losari Beach area. Awareness regarding the importance of environmental cleanliness has been established with the existence of regulations that regulate environmental management, especially waste management. However, the socialization related to government programs has not touched business actors in Losari Beach. Therefore, this community service aims to provide socialization of PP No. 4 of 2011 regarding the waste management program as an effort to increase awareness of environmental cleanliness. A clean environment can attract domestic and foreign tourists which will directly have an impact on increasing the income of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). The stages of implementing the activities are the preparation stage and the implementation stage using the socialization method. The result of the service is that the community understands the purpose of the PP Regional Regulation No. 4 of 2011 for MSMEs, one of which is protecting the environment as a tourist attraction. The high number of tourists visiting has an impact on purchasing power, thus Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) continue to exist to maintain their business.

Understanding Financial Management Practices in Sociological Perspectives: A Transcendental Phenomenological Study

The purpose of this study is to uncover financial management practices from a sociological perspective. Conventional finance focuses only on materials or assets, which seem to have no spirit or social oxygen, even though those spirits have an important role in financial governance. This study used transcendental phenomenological methodology. A total of five key informants were involved in the study. All the key informants involved have at least ten years of experience as banana traders "Epe" on the Losari beach of Makassar City. This research found that the harmonization between the heart and the rational is supplied by new benefits of social oxygen that create new spirits and new energy in the form of social and economic. So that it has the potential to provide the best financial governance (excellent value) to other companies, in addition to the company's internals, the company will become dazzling and have the potential to produce the best performance (always the best) and sustainable growth. So it is not an exaggeration that excellent value, charm, always the best, and sustainable growth are characteristics of humanist financial management that are not found in conventional financial management.

Analysis of the Heavy Metal Levels (Cd, Fe, Hg and Pb) at Losari Beach Tourism Reclamation of Makassar

The process of stockpiling reclamation areas and disposing of waste streams can pollute the environment and cause the attendance of dangerous heavy metals. In this research was conducted to determine heavy metals Cd, Fe, Hg, and Pb levels in water and sediment on Losari beach. The method used was an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The result showed that the levels of Cd and Fe in the water for the north point were 0.0278 and 0.0432 mg/L, the south point was 0.0031 and 0.0674 mg/L, the point around the platform showed 0.0028 and 0.0534 mg/L and the levels of sediment were 0.0010 and 31.2417 mg/L. The levels of Hg and Pb in water were 0.0235 and 0.0390 mg/L (north point) 0.0105 and 0.0420 mg/L (south point) 0.0027 and 0.0460 mg/L (around the platform), sediments were 0.0027 and 0.071 mg/L. The result concluded that the concentration of Cd had crossed the threshold only at the north point namely 0.01 mg/L, while the concentration of Fe that crossed the threshold was only in sediment namely 20 mg/L. The level of Hg and Pb pollution in the water and sediment of Losari beach tourism is polluted because it exceeds quality standards.

This research method is a qualitative type with a phenomenological approach through the MSN-Approach model to analyze and understand the complex implementation of coastal reclamation (CPI) in Makassar City. Sources of data used in this study are interviews with all elements of policy makers as key informants, observations,and documents. This study uses the Losari Multi-Stakeholder Analysis (MSA) procedure, Makassar City.The results of this study found that the implementation of CPI development policies in Makassar City through the MSN-Approach Model approach (Mentality-Approach, Systems- Approach, and Networking-Approach) was considered less effective. This is because the attitude of the actors who are not consistently responsible for the analysis plan on environmental impact analysis (AMDAL) that does not pay attention to marine sustainability and the economic sustainability of coastal communities. So that it is also assessed the role of government, private sector, and civil society which has not materialized to do good cooperation before making planning, development processes to the management of accountable CPI.

The Structuring and Empowerment Policy of Losari Beach Street Vendors Based on The Concept of Smart City

Mining activities in open pit and underground mines will always be associated with rock breaking or stripping activities (both mechanical and blasting), so that this can affect the structure and strength of rocks. The strength of the rock is strongly influenced by the presence of initial cracks (pre-existing cracks) and rock anisotropy conditions associated with discontinuous plane conditions. Fracture mechanics is a science that illustrates how a fracture can occur and propagate during applied stress on material. The main parameter in fracture mechanics is called fracture toughness which shows the resistance of the material to propagate the crack. There are several mode in determining type I fracture toughness, one of which is type I fracture toughness Flattened Brazilian Disc (FBD) mode. Type I fracture toughness test is carried out using a compression machine in a laboratory and is conducted on concrete samples consisting of 3 (three) various samples, with a ratio of cement and sand composition of 1:1, 1:2, and 2:1. This test also uses different loading rate values, namely 2.50 mm/min, 2.70 mm/min, and 2.83 mm/min. The results of the type I fracture toughness value from each loading rate will be compared to determine the effect of the loading rate on the value of type I fracture toughness. The obtained fracture toughness value is also related to the physical and mechanical properties of the samples. Based on the results of tests, it can be seen that the loading rate affects the value of fracture toughness, the increase in fracture toughness value is followed by the higher loading rate. In addition, it can be seen that the fracture toughness value is directly proportional to the uniaxial compressive strength value and the indirect tensile strength value. The average correlation value obtained is R2 = 0.9884 (indicating a strong relationship).

The influence of Transit Area in Public Open Space of Losari Beach Makassar Pavilion on the Activities of Group Visitors

Urban communities are social beings who have a high level of activity. One of the activities to release fatigue is a refreshing type of activity. A developing city like Makassar needs open space for the public as a container for community activities, including refreshing activities. The Losari Beach Pavilion is present as an open public space that is visited by the majority of visitors in groups to carry out refreshing activities. This public space has a space configuration whose design is available in several parts of the room as a stopover for visiting activities. This part of the space shows that the activities are overlapping so that space is used in the transit space and some of it becomes empty space. Therefore, this research was conducted to explain the effects of what happens to transit space and empty space, in this case the space that is not functionally stopped. This study used the descriptive qualitative method. The data collection technique uses the behavior mapping method by recording activities and sketches to get an image of the activity pattern carried out by group visitors then presented in tables, pictures and descriptions. The results of the study show that the transit space is a place of stopover because of the influence of spatial area, visibility, historical area, iconic elements, social interaction, while the shelter space was not functionally visited due to the influence of minimizing visibility, social interaction, and arrangement of attribute elements.

Walkability Indexis the result of measuring the comfort level of pedestrian paths which will be a benchmarkfor developing pedestrian paths that are feasible for everyone. Jpedestrian paths (sidewalks) can be saidto be feasible if they can meet pedestrian needs based on several criteria such as accessibility, circulation,safety, security, beauty, cleanliness, noise, shade, and connectivity. The purpose of this study is to obtaina pedestrian comfort index based on pedestrian needs in the Losari Beach Area and Fort Rotterdam. Toproduce this comfort index, it is necessary to identify the factors and measure the level of comfort based onpedestrian needs, and to determine the priority of pedestrian needs..The pedestrian path available in this areais known as “Bundaratta”, located in the recreation/natural tourism area (Losari Beach) and cultural tourism(Fort Rotterdam) people of Makassar City. With the function of the land as a recreation area, a comfortablepedestrian path is urgently needed by local and foreign tourists to enjoy and reach the existing facilitiesaround the area. This research is a quantitative descriptive study, using a Likert scale to obtain a level ofcomfort and the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to obtain priority for the comfort factor. The resultsshowed that the pedestrian comfort index along Losari Beach to Fort Rotterdam is 60.20 and it is in thecomfortable category, but it still needs some repairs and improvements in several location segments so thatthis pedestrian lane falls into the category that is truly comfortable and even very comfortable. for its users.

Proportion of HABs in Losari coastal waters of Makassar

Harmful alga blooms (HABs) are phytoplankton considered dangerous in any waters, especially when found in a large number of cells. Research on the proportion of the emergence of harmful phytoplankton (HABs) had been conducted in June until December 2018 in the coastal waters of Losari Beach, Makassar City. The method developed by APHA was used to analyze the appearance of HABs, then a proportion test. Results showed that there were seven genera detected by HABs, namely Protoperidinium, Gymnodinium, Ceratium, Prorocentrum, Gyrodinium, Gonyaulax, and Dinophysis. All genera were groups of Dinophyceae. Based on the proportion test, HABs gained 41%. This means the percentage of HABs was still low in abundance when compared to a non-HABs type. Thus, the water condition of Losari has not been worrying. However, early preventive measures have to be taken into account to prevent the growth of HABs.
