Distribution of Soil Macrofauna Diversity and Abudance Land Used at Moving Agricultura Systems Warmare District, Regency of Manokwari, Province of West Papua

Warmare District, Manokwari Regency, West Papua Province is one of the areas where the people still maintain the shifting cultivation system and it has even become one of the local wisdoms in the area. This research aims to examine the diversity and density of soil macrofauna on shifting cultivation land in the Warmare District, Manokwari Regency. The method used in this research is the direct handsorting method in the field and macrofauna identification using a binocular microscope. Data analysis used in this research was cluster analysis with PAST (Powerful Software for Scientific Data Analysis) software version 3.4 and used the Landmarks 3D PCA test to see the relationship between soil macrofauna diversity and land use types. The research results showed that the highest density and diversity of soil macrofauna was shown by the use of forest land with 38 taxa at a depth of 0-10 cm and 37 taxa at a depth of 10-20 cm. Where the high diversity composition of the Shannon-Weaner index is shown by forest land use with a value of 0.94 and is reinforced by the low Simpson index value of 0.30 for forest land use. This is in line with the results of the PCA analysis which shows that macrofauna forest land is compared with monoculture cultivation land and polyculture cultivation land.

Optimizing Malaria Control: Granular and Cost-Effective Mosquito Habitat Index in Endemic Areas Through Satellite Imagery

Malaria, classified as a tropical disease under the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) indicator 3.3, remains a significant global health challenge. In this study, by taking advantage of multiple spectral composite indexes of multisource satellite imagery to capture various geospatial features relevant to the suitability of marsh mosquito habitat, we introduced the Mosquito Habitat Suitability Index (MHSI) to assess potential Anopheles mosquito breeding sites in terms of the vegetation density, water bodies, environment temperature, and humidity in any particular areas. The MHSI integrates the publicly accessible granular level of the normalized difference vegetation index, water index, land surface temperature, and moisture index from cost-effective low and medium-resolution optical satellite data. We focus on West Papua Province, Indonesia, known for diverse ecological conditions and varying malaria prevalence, as a case study area. From the built index, the risk zone map is then formed with the K-Means algorithm. One key finding is the elevated risk in Fakfak Regency, demanding particular attention, as its high-risk area represents 45% of its total. This research aids localized decision-making to combat malaria's unique challenges in West Papua Province which are relevant for implementation in other regions, contributing to SDG-aligned interventions for malaria eradication by 2030.

MODELLING CRIME RATES IN INDONESIA USING TRUNCATED SPLINE ESTIMATOR

Criminal acts are actions that violate the law and can arise from various factors such as emotions, psychological pressure, and others. Crime rate is a number that indicate the level of crime vulnerability in a certain area at a certain time. Higher crime rates correspond to increased vulnerability in an area, and vice versa. Among various forms of criminal acts, the number of criminal acts and narcotics crimes in Indonesia tends to increase in 2020 and 2021. The aim of the research is to identify the characteristics of crime rate data based on the number of decency and narcotics incidents in Indonesia using a nonparametric regression approach. This research uses a nonparametric regression method spline truncated and linear regression as comparison. It was found that West Papua Province has the highest crime rate, based on a comparison between linear regression model and truncated spline nonparametric regression model, it can be concluded that the best model is the truncated spline nonparametric regression model with a Generalized Cross Validation (GCV) of 2468.487 and a coefficient of determination of 0 .7389091, indicating that approximately 73% of the variability of the dependent variable can be explained by the independent variables included in the model.

The Legal Status of the Customary Law of the Doreri Tribe in the Manokwari Regency within the Statehood of the Republic of Indonesia

The Customary Village is designated by the Regional Regulation of the District/City, which serves as the juridical basis for the recognition of customary law by the community. However, currently, only 2 (two) regencies in the West Papua Province have legitimized this by enacting a Regional Regulation. Based on this gap, this research aims to analyze the legal status of the customary law of the Doreri tribe in Manokwari Regency within the statehood of the Republic of Indonesia. The research method used is socio legal research. The results indicate that, at present, the legal status of the customary law of the Doreri tribe is not in accordance with the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and Law No. 6 of 2014 concerning Villages. Therefore, the customary law of the Doreri tribe lacks a strong juridical foundation because the Doreri tribe only has an association, namely the Empowerment Body for Doreri Community and Youth, with a deed issued by a Notary. This cannot serve as a strong legal basis as it is not recognized as a customary village or a unit of recognized customary law community but only as a legally sanctioned association. Therefore, it is expected that in the future, the Local Government of Manokwari Regency, especially the Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD) of the Regency, will propose a Regional Regulation (Raperda) regarding the recognition of the customary law community of the Doreri tribe.

Classification of Healthy Family Indicators in Indonesia Based on a K-means Cluster Analysis.

Health development is a key element of national development. The goal of improving health development at the societal level will be readily achieved if it is directed from the smallest social unit, namely the family. This was the goal of the Healthy Indonesia Program with a Family Approach. The objective of the study was to analyze variables of family health indicators across all provinces in Indonesia to identify provincial disparities based on the status of healthy families. This study examined secondary data for 2021 from the Indonesia Health Profile, provided by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, and from the 2021 welfare statistics by Statistics Indonesia (BPS). From these sources, we identified 10 variables for analysis using the k-means method, a non-hierarchical method of cluster analysis. The results of the cluster analysis of healthy family indicators yielded 5 clusters. In general, cluster 1 (Papua and West Papua Provinces) had the lowest average achievements for healthy family indicators, while cluster 5 (Jakarta Province) had the highest indicator scores. In Indonesia, disparities in healthy family indicators persist. Nutrition, maternal health, and child health are among the indicators that require government attention.

Analysis of the Availability and Gaps of Educational Facilities in Teluk Bintuni Regency Papua

Education is recognized as a human right and the main key to a nation's progress. The availability of adequate educational facilities in each region is crucial to ensure equal access to education for all citizens. However, Indonesia faces significant challenges in providing equitable educational facilities, especially considering the diverse geographical and demographic conditions between regions. Teluk Bintuni Regency in West Papua Province is one of the areas that requires special attention in improving educational access and facilities, especially because of its geographical conditions, the majority of which are islands with mountains and sea waters. This research aims to analyze the availability of educational facilities in Teluk Bintuni Regency, with a focus on the type and level of schools. Data obtained from the Education Department shows that by 2023, this district will only have 263 schools, consisting of kindergartens, elementary schools, middle schools, high schools and vocational schools. This figure is still considered insufficient and equitable, especially when compared with the population of around 60,000 people spread across 23 sub-districts. The main challenge in providing equitable educational facilities in Teluk Bintuni Regency involves diverse geographic and demographic conditions. Therefore, it is hoped that this research can provide an in-depth evaluation of the current condition of educational facilities, identify existing gaps, and formulate the need for improving educational facilities in the future based on population growth projections. It is hoped that the results of this research can provide a strong basis for policy making by the Teluk Bintuni Regency Government, especially in terms of planning and budgeting for the equitable development of educational facilities. It is also hoped that the conclusions from this research can become a reference for related agencies, such as the Education Office, Bappeda, and the Teluk Bintuni Regency DPRD, in preparing strategic plans for educational development for the next five years.

Optimasi Jaringan Syaraf Tiruan Dalam Memprediksi Jumlah Penduduk Nasional

Predictions or forecasting are important parameters in determining policy that will be implemented in the future. The higher the population of a country, the more it will affect the balance of that country. This research aims to predict the national population using the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) approach. The sample for this research is population data for each province obtained from the National Central Statistics Agency (BPS). The data is iterated from 2011 to 2022. The approach method uses backpropagation Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). The architectural model is determined with 2 hidden layers and 1 output, namely 5-20-10-1 with learning rate variations of 0.01, 0.02, and 0.03. ANN prediction results are able to predict the national population. The success of the three models shows that the ANN model with a Learning rate of 0.01 has the highest accuracy level of 96.9697, equivalent to 97%. This is proven by the model's success in predicting 32 out of 33 data samples with a time duration of 117 seconds. The prediction results showed that the highest population numbers were in three provinces, namely Central Java, West Java, and East Java. Meanwhile, the lowest population is in West Papua province.

Application of Panel Data Regression on Factors Influencing Poverty Levels in West Papua Province in 2018-2022

West Papua has consistently been one of the regions with the highest poverty rates in Indonesia, ranking second in 2022. This study investigates the factors influencing the poverty rate in West Papua from 2018 to 2022 using panel data analysis, which combines both cross-sectional and time-series data. The variables examined include the open unemployment rate, economic growth rate, and human development index. A Random Effect Model (REM) was selected as the most appropriate model for analyzing the data, given its ability to account for individual-specific effects while assuming that these effects are uncorrelated with the independent variables. The model produced a goodness of fit of 0.74, suggesting a strong explanatory power. The results indicate that the economic growth rate and human development index significantly influence the poverty rate, both showing a negative correlation with poverty levels. However, the open unemployment rate was found to be insignificant. These findings suggest that focusing on economic growth and improving human development outcomes could be key to reducing poverty in West Papua. Policy implications and recommendations for further research are also discussed.

Perancangan Video Motion Graphics Sosialisasi Stunting Bagi Remaja Usia 15-19 Tahun Di Kabupaten Manokwari

The high stunting rate in Manokwari makes Manokwari Regency the district with the highest stunting rate in West Papua Province. One of the factors causing the high stunting is the high rate of early marriage. This is due to the difficulty of understanding stunting. The government has made various efforts to reduce stunting but people still feel that they do not understand the material presented in socialization activities, moreover the material cannot be accessed repeatedly, especially for adolescents aged 15-19 years. Video motion graphics can be a solution to convey stunting information to the public. The research aims to design videos of less than one minute that contain illustration, animation, text and backsound, so that information can be conveyed in a more interesting way. The research method used is descriptive qualitative the result of this research is that motion graphics videos can be a medium for delivering socialization about stunting, especially early marriage, which can increase the information of the target audience who watch the video, especially for adolescents aged 15-19 years in Manokwari Regency.

Analysis comparison model of ROC-TOPSIS, ROC-WP, and ROC-Electre methods for supporting the funding decision to micro-enterprises Indonesia

Micro-business is an essential business unit that supports the economies of countries in the world, including Indonesia. Unfortunately, micro-entrepreneurs often find difficulties to obtain financial assistance from government to develop their businesses. In Indonesia, the smallest number of micro industries can be found in West Papua Province, where one of the underdeveloped areas in the province is the Sorong City. Therefore, a study was conducted to determine the application of decision support methods in selecting micro-enterprises in Sorong that are eligible for business funding. The decision support method chosen is the collaboration between the Rank-Order Centroid (ROC) method, Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), Weight Product (WP), and Elimination Et Choix Traduisant la Realite (Electre). With the analysis conducted on 10 samples of micro-enterprises in Sorong City, it was found that the micro-enterprises that were most eligible to receive assistance is Raya Helm based on ROC-TOPSIS, ROC-WP, and ROC-Electre. Then, sensitivity analysis results the ROC-Electre as the best method with the highest sensitivity percentage. Therefore, the implementation of these methods for supporting the funding decision to micro-enterprises in Sorong was successfully carried out with the output being the micro-enterprise rating results.

Application of Forward Chaining Method, Certainty Factor, and Bayes Theorem for Cattle Disease

Indonesia is a country that has many natural resources, especially mammals. The Papua and West Papua regions are large provinces with abundant natural resources and tremendous livestock potential. The availability of natural resources in the form of live cattle provides a great opportunity to develop animal husbandry in West Papua province. This research was conducted to create a new expert system with a knowledge base to solve the problems that occur and be useful for the community, especially cattle breeders. The current problem is the delay and lack of medical personnel in diagnosing cattle diseases, the distance that must be traveled, which is still very difficult to travel, and the lack of understanding of farmers in early handling when implications indicate animals. So, the Certainty Factor Method and Bayes Theorem with Forward-Chaining search are used to handle current problems. From the results of manual calculations, Certainty Factor Forward Chaining search is a method that has an uncertainty value of 99.84% for 3-day fever compared to Bayes Theorem Forward Chaining search with a value of 50% for worms, 50% for 3-day fever and 50% for nail rot, if applied then Certainty Factor Forward Chaining search is the most appropriate. Likewise, updating the knowledge base must be done from time to time. So that in the future, it can be compared with other methods and Android-based to facilitate current breeders.

How using light touch immersion research revealed important insights into the lack of progress in malaria elimination in Eastern Indonesia.

By 2022, the Government of Indonesia had successfully eliminated malaria in 389 out of 514 districts but continues to face a challenge in Eastern Indonesia where 95% of the total 2021 malaria cases were reported from Papua, West Papua and Nusa Tenggara Timur provinces. There is an increased recognition that malaria elimination will require a better understanding of the human behavioural factors hindering malaria prevention and treatment, informed by local context and local practice. This research used a light-touch immersion research approach. Field researchers lived in communities over several days to gather data through informal conversations, group-based discussions using visual tools, participant observation and direct experience. The study was conducted in four high malaria endemic areas in Papua, West Papua, and Sumba Islands in Nusa Tenggara Timur. The research highlights how people's perception of malaria has changed since the introduction of effective treatment which, in turn, has contributed to a casual attitude towards early testing and adherence to malaria treatment. It also confirms that people rarely accept there is a link between mosquitoes and malaria based on their experience but nevertheless take precautions against the annoyance of mosquitoes. There is widespread recognition that babies and small children, elderly and incomers are more likely to be seriously affected by malaria and separately, more troubled by mosquitoes than indigenous adult populations. This is primarily explained by acclimatization and strong immune systems among the latter. Using immersion research enabled behaviour research within a naturalistic setting, which in turn enabled experiential-led analysis of findings and revealed previously unrecognized insights into attitudes towards malaria in Eastern Indonesia. The research provides explanations of people's lack of motivation to consistently use bed nets, seek early diagnosis or complete courses of treatment. The felt concern for the wellbeing of vulnerable populations highlighted during light touch immersion provides an entry point for future social behaviour change communication interventions. Rather than trying to explain transmission to people who deny this connection, the research concludes that it may be better to focus separately on the two problems of malaria and mosquitoes (especially for vulnerable groups) thereby resonating with local people's own experience and felt concerns.

The Effect Of Human Resources Management On The Success Of Electricity Projects (Tower Transmission) In West Papua Province

<span>he development of electricity facilities and infrastructure plays a vital role in supporting the economic, social, and cultural activities of a nation. The success of construction projects, including transmission towers, can be measured based on the triple constraint, namely correct quality, timely and cost-effective. These three things can be achieved through human resource management. This study aims to measure the influence of human resource management which includes HR planning, project leadership support, organizational structure, and provision of training on the success of electricity projects (transmission towers) in West Papua Province. This study uses a cross-sectional approach to determine the relationship among the variables studied. The population of this study is all workers involved in the transmission construction project of the work tower SUTT Aimas – Sorong (AS) and SUTT Sorong – Rufey (SR). Data collection was carried out through interviews and questionnaires with a sample size of 35 respondents determined by purposive sampling. A partial disaggregation approach with Structure Equation Modeling - Partial Least Square using SmartPLS was carried out to measure the causal relationship among the observed variables.

POTENTIAL ROLE OF PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS IN IMPROVING THE FOOD AND NUTRITION SECURITY IN WEST PAPUA

The study aims to stimulate the potential of a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) in West Papua province, which ranks 33rd (out of 34) on the Indonesian Food and Nutrition Security (FNS) Index and where stunting is a public health challenge. The authors analyzed the potential by using FNS Indicators and examining the results of discussions with the stakeholders. We propose to focus interventions on the provision of food for vulnerable individuals, behavioral change communication to improve the consumption of healthy local food, improvement of the knowledge of mothers and other household members about food and nutrition, the promotion and reinforcement of exclusive breastfeeding for children below six months, the improvement of access to clean water and latrines, the improvement of access to preventive and health care services by providing one nutritionist per village, and the provision of iron and folic-acid tablets to pregnant women and adolescent girls. A multi-stakeholder effort should be put in place, led by the provincial government, comprising representatives from the offices of public works, health, education, and social affairs. The network should involve the 36 private companies based in the area. Educational materials could be reproduced by the printing companies and distributed by the construction, fishing, and timber companies. The government of West Papua should identify food and nutrition as a priority concern and widen its existing PPP activities beyond Corporate Social Responsibility.

Community participation in the utilization of Mansinam Island as an ecotourism object

As an ecotourism attraction in Manokwari Regency, West Papua Province, Mansinam Island offers a unique combination of natural beauty, historical sites, and religious values. However, it still faces challenges such as attraction diversity and lack of infrastructure. This study aimed to understand the interaction of the local community with aspects of ecotourism, including environmental preservation, economic development, and socio-culture. Using interview and questionnaire methods, this study collected data from 38 respondents purposively selected from the residents of Mansinam Island. Data analysis was conducted through a tabulation process to identify three main variables: the role of the community in economic, environmental, and social activities related to ecotourism. The results showed that, although Mansinam Island has excellent potential as an ecotourism destination, there is still significant room for improvement in community participation. Economically, many opportunities, such as equipment rental and tourist product development, have not been fully utilized. On the environmental conservation side, although awareness has developed, active community participation still needs to be improved. From a social aspect, despite the existence of art and cultural studios, community involvement in promoting and developing local cultural values is still limited. The conclusion of this study is the need to increase community participation in every aspect of ecotourism on Mansinam Island. This includes local economic development, environmental preservation, and the preservation and promotion of local culture. Through increased community participation, Mansinam Island can optimize its potential as a sustainable ecotourism destination and provide more comprehensive benefits to the local community.
