Policy Analysis of Regional Regulation No. 14 of 2011 Concerning Semarang City Regional Spatial Planning for Flood Management: A Qualitative Study

Semarang City, as one of the metropolitan cities in Indonesia, is often hit by floods. This is caused by various factors, including regional spatial planning that is not well planned. Regional Regulation (Perda) No. 14 of 2011 concerning Semarang City Regional Spatial Planning (RTRW) is expected to be a solution to overcoming flooding problems. This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of Regional Regulation No. 14 of 2011 in dealing with floods in Semarang City. This research uses qualitative methods with data collection techniques through interviews, observation and documentation studies. The data obtained was analyzed using qualitative data analysis techniques. The research results show that Regional Regulation No. 14 of 2011 has several weaknesses in dealing with floods in Semarang City. These weaknesses include: Lack of community involvement in the preparation of the RTRW: The community was not actively involved in the process of preparing the RTRW, so that their aspirations were not properly accommodated. Lack of synchronization between RTRW and other policies: RTRW is not synchronized with other policies related to flood management, such as coastal area spatial planning policies and drainage policies. Lack of law enforcement: Law enforcement regarding RTRW violations is still weak, resulting in many land conversions occurring which exacerbate flooding problems. In conclusion, Regional Regulation No. 14 of 2011 concerning Semarang City RTRW has several weaknesses in dealing with floods. These weaknesses make this policy ineffective in achieving its goals. To increase the effectiveness of this policy, several steps need to be taken, such as increasing community involvement, increasing synchronization between policies, and increasing law enforcement.

STUDI UPAYA PENGOPTIMALAN PENGGUNAAN BRT TRANS PATRIOT KOTA BEKASI BERDASARKAN PREFERENSI MASYARAKAT

Rapid population growth is able to bring significant changes to various systems of urban community activities, with the high standard of living of the community, the higher the movement carried out. The existence of high community movement must be balanced with the provision of adequate transportation facilities and infrastructure, such as the provision of good public transportation to be able to reduce private vehicles. Public transportation is able as a solution to urban transportation problems that are able to serve the community in meeting their needs for movement. The city of Bekasi as one of the buffer cities of DKI Jakarta and as one of the metropolitan cities in Indonesia has also developed BRT as a mode of urban public transportation. In 2019 Bekasi City has integrated mass public transportation, BRT Trans Patriot. However, the number of users of this public transport is low. BRT Trans Patriot is still not used optimally by the community. Based on these problems, it is necessary to study the optimization of the use of the BRT Trans Patriot based on people's preferences. The results show that service quality affects people to use Trans Patriot BRT, and it is found that the available services are not optimal in accordance with bus rapid transit standards. Regarding this, it affects the number of Trans Patriot BRT users that are not optimal.

Application of K-Means Cluster Analysis for Magnetic Susceptibility Zoning of Urban Topsoil in Bandung City

Bandung is one of the metropolitan cities in Indonesia which has a dense population. As a result, the number of vehicles is increasing, which causes an abundance of particulates on the urban topsoil. Motor vehicle particulates can be identified through the value of magnetic susceptibility. The greater the magnetic susceptibility value on the topsoil, the more magnetic minerals are associated with the number of particulates produced by vehicles. To zone the value of magnetic susceptibility in an area, a clustering method is needed. In this study, magnetic susceptibility zoning analysis was conducted using the K-mean cluster method. The data processing results on 38 samples divided into three clusters showed that 12 samples were in cluster 1, 23 samples were in cluster 2, and 3 samples were in cluster 3. The samples in each cluster were influenced by the magnetic susceptibility value between the sample centre and the neighbouring samples. The validation of the clustering results is shown through the F test, which shows that the calculated F is greater than the F table at a significance level of 0.05. Thus, it can be said that there is an association between the magnetic susceptibility values in a cluster.

Integration of Public Transportation in Smart Transportation System (Smart Transportation System) in Jakarta

Congestion is not a new problem for Jakarta, as the center of government and a metropolitan city in Indonesia. Handling the congestion problem in Jakarta then requires a comprehensive and comprehensive solution. Smart cities and smart transportation systems are thought to be able to do just that. This paper aims to review the existing smart transportation system in Jakarta and attempt to integrate public transportation into this system as an effort to overcome congestion in Jakarta. The review in this paper is carried out qualitatively by reviewing various literatures that have been published previously. The results show that the government has started trying to develop a smart city through the Jakarta Smart City (JSC) so that the development of a smart transportation system as part of a smart city is needed. In this case, this paper has developed a framework for a smart transportation system that integrates the public transportation system into it so that a more integrated smart transportation system is created for Jakarta.

Peran Dinas Sosial dan Penanggulangan Kemiskinan Kota Bandung dalam Memberikan Perlindungan Hukum terhadap Anak Jalanan

Children are the hope and pioneer of the life of a country in the future, so a child has the right of their growth and development to obtain education, protection from violence, discrimination, and live in security and peace from various parties, namely family, community and government. This also applies to street children who are identical as a person/group of children who spend most of their time on the streets and come from various backgrounds, thus forcing them to be on the streets. Due to the increasing number of street children, it is necessary to get strict handling by not forgetting the rights that must be obtained. Bandung, which is one of the metropolitan cities in Indonesia, is the reason the researchers chose us in studying the problems regarding street children. This problem is studied based on the Perda Kota Bandung No. 4 Tahun 2019 concerning the Implementation of Child Protection which is the basis for handling street children problems carried out by the Dinas Sosial dan Penanggulangan Kemiskinan Kota Bandung. Researchers want to know what steps have been taken, obstacles and efforts that have been made. The research we conducted used a descriptive qualitative method with interview, observation, and documentation data collection techniques. From this, it was found that the steps or actions of the Dinas Sosial dan Penanggulangan Kemiskinan Kota Bandung in dealing with the problem of street children in accordance with the Perda Kota Bandung No. 4 Tahun 2019 concerning the Implementation of Child Protection is to form a USR Team and the construction of a Shelter House specifically intended for temporary shelter for the street children.

Urban performance based on biometeorology index in high-density, hot, and humid cities

• The correlation between high density and urban performance based on biometeorology index for eight metropolitan cities in Indonesia is introduced. • The need to re-evaluate spatial planning in Indonesia, especially cities with high BCR is the urgency to achieve a preferred urban biometeorology. • Reducing BCR especially in dense area to promote 30% open space by increase the value of FAR. • The results show potential improving urban biometeorology by promote FAR to increase urban ventilation. This article aims to discuss urban performance based on the biometeorology of eight dense cities in Indonesia (i.e., Jakarta, Bandung, Medan, Padang, Pontianak, Banjarmasin, Makassar, and Denpasar). The interconnection between urban morphology and human biometeorology provides an understanding of meteorological vulnerability and thermo–physiological aspects, which is expressed as the physiologically equivalent temperature (PET). The hourly meteorological data from eight cities’ weather stations was collected from 2009 to 2019. The building density is later defined as the building coverage ratio (BCR) and is divided by a low BCR, which is less than 70%, and a high BCR, which is more than 70%. The BCR is then correlated with the meteorology variables, Ta max, RH, and v, to calculate its impact on the PET. The increase of Ta max in cities, both for low BCRs ( r = 0.76) and high BCRs ( r = 0.54), is found to have a significant correlation with an increase in PET. Meanwhile, increasing the value of v for both low BCRs ( r = -0.67) and high BCRs ( r = -0.65) decreases PET . However, modifying the value of the PET for cities with a high BCR is more complicated. The microclimate within the building layout must be manipulated to increase the value of v . A humid condition for a high BCR is beneficial to reduce the PET.

POTENTIAL FOR CO2 EMISSIONS IN TRANSPORTATION SECTOR AND REDUCTION STRATEGIES ANALYSIS RELATED TO GREENHOUSE GAS IN SEMARANG

Semarang is the capital of Central Java Province and also one of the metropolitan city in Indonesia with population of 1,559,198 (Semarang in Number 2012). The high number of population and economic growth has an attraction for the community activities in Semarang and surrounding. Moreover, with the spatial planning concept which provide residential areas and commercial activities and services spread all over Semarang, it increase the distance and activities needs. One of the most influenced sectors with the increasing activities is the transportation sector. It can be seen by the increasing number of private vehicles and congestion in almost all main roads. In the Climate Change issue, one of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions contributor is the transport sector. Based on Semarang in Number 2012, with the year 2010 as a base line for emission count, it showed that the number of private car as many as 33,523 vehicles, oplet/microbus 859 vehicles, motor bikes 119,019 vehicles, buses 443 vehicles, trucks 913 vehicles and taxi as many as 1,265 vehicles. These numbers of vehicles was served by 2,786.28 kilometers of road which consists of national, provincial and municipal road, and also by the local road for about 2,691 kilometers. The total fuel consumption for the activities of those vehicles is 302,928.00 litre of Premium and 154,925,500 litre of solar. From the data presented,we calculated that the CO2 Emissions is 111,020,367 ton CO2e. From the data above, private cars and motorcycles reached 97% of the total transportation used in Semarang. With a considerable amount of transportation emission of 1,110,204 ton CO2e, the effect on climate change through greenhouse gas (GHG) are quite high. Therefore,Semarang city needs a sustainable transportation strategy to reduce emission form the transport sector, such as Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) operation, use of fuel gas, and integrated public transportation systems that will make people interested in using public transportation. From the operations of BRT system in Semarang, with three corridors from 2010- 2014, as many as 9,169,925 people are served by BRT (Dishubkominfo, 2014). Seeing from this condition, the need to increase integrated transportation system to decrease people from using private vehicles which in turn reduce CO2 emissions in Semarang become increasingly important.
