Peran Pilihan Pendekatan Pemecahan Masalah dan Karakteristik Risiko Dalam Mengatasi Gangguan pada Risiko Rantai Pasokan

The purpose of this study is to examine the constraints that arise in supply chain activities by considering the influence of risk characteristics on the choice of problem solving approach taken by management. There are 524 consumers who use goods delivery services in the Central Java region. This study was built based on the initial assumption that risks with high and low magnitude (High Risk Magnitude and Low Risk Magnitude) trigger network mobilization between actors, risk monitoring, communication between business actors and delivery service providers, resources and facilities so that it influences the choice of a solution approach. problems in supply chain management. We assume that risk with high strength has a positive effect on the choice of problem solving that provides a win-win solution. Conversely, risk with a low probability has a negative effect on the choice of mutually beneficial problem solving solutions. Our final findings through statistical tests conclude that the influence of risk attributes on the choice of problem solving approach is fully facilitated by timely assistance and collaborative problem solving.

Reducing Maintenance Cost of Concrete Structure Jetty, Piping & Fuel Tank using Mambo3 (Material Admixture Bamboo Fiber with Honeycomb Configuration MOR 3) at Fuel Terminal Tanjung Gerem

PT Pertamina Patra Niaga West Java Region is an investment implementation function based on the budget written in RKAP of each period. The investments carried out are spread in each work location at Jakarta, Banten and West Java. Fuel Terminal Tanjung Gerem is one of the Main Transit Fuel Terminals in the Pertamina Patra Niaga – West Java Region. Located near seafront made Fuel Terminal Tanjung Gerem have high corrotion rate more than 0,05 mm/year. Based on the pareto diagram analysis, the main cause for the high operating cost budget year 2021 of Fuel Terminal Tanjung Gerem was the High Maintenance Cost of Concrete Structure of Jetty, Fuel Tank and Piping due to high corrotion rate. Maintenance cost especially for retrofit activity usually use common fiber reinforced polymer. The weakness of common fiber reinforced polymer cannot strengthen the structural strength of existing facilities. To overcome this problem, Mamboo3 (Material Admixture Bamboo Fiber with Honeycomb Configuration MOR 3) is determined as alternative solution of Common Fiber Reinforced Polymer. By applying Mambo3, the Quality of Structure (Concrete and Metal) after retrofit have Tensile strength min 564 Mpa and yield strength min 734 Mpa (better than quality of new facilities). In addition lifetime of existing facilities increased to 8 years and reducing maintenance cost 30,2% (USD 51,77 / m2).
 This innovation has been endorsed by an external party, PT Surveyor Indonesia, PT. Sucofindo and Institut Teknologi Bandung. Replication has been carried out for the Fuel Terminal PT. Pertamina Patra Niaga – West Java Region and Central Java Region.

Convergence of income across regencies in Central Java: spatial econometric approach

The development of an economy is oriented towards not only growth but also equality. Furthermore, economic interaction across regions has to be captured in a development analysis to avoid the possibility of biased results. This study analyzes Central Java, Indonesia's economic development, by considering spatial interactions across regencies. The Spatial Durbin Model (SDM) is used for the analysis. The results show significant spatial interaction across regencies/cities in Central Java in the spatial model and economic convergence that occurs faster than in the non-spatial model. Then, the mismatch between the curriculum of education and industry needs is a presumption illustrated in the insignificant relationship of human capital to income. And an anomaly occurs where physical capital has a negative impact on income.

Farmers’ Perceptions and Behavior which Affecting the Adoption Rate of KUB Chickens

KUB chicken as a superior breed produced by Indonesian Agency for Agricultural Instrument Standardization (IAAIS) becomes one of the solutions in an effort to increase the need for animal protein. KUB chicken breeds have been successfully disseminated to all provinces in Indonesia. Thus the rate of adoption and behavior of breeders in maintaining the sustainability of KUB chicken rearing needs to be analyzed  because the breeds that are disseminated may not be successfully developed in a certain area. This research will collaborate between the two theories; "Theory of Planned Behavior" (TPB) and "Technology Acceptance Model" (TAM). It was conducted in June 2022 in the City of Salatiga, Semarang and Magelang, Central Java Province. The determination of the research location was based on the consideration that there was a KUB chicken breeders group that already had a KUB chicken breeder association called AnaKUB (KUB Chicken Breeders Association) and a breeding population that met the sampling requirements. The purpose of this research was to analyze the perception factors and breeders behavior that affect the adoption rate of KUB Chicken Technology in Central Java Province, Indonesia. ). The combined results of path analysis (path) and regression analysis on the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique, it can be concluded that perceived benefits (25.3%), ease of raising KUB chickens (23.9%), attitudes (21.2%), subjective norms (16.7%) and perceptions of control behavior (17.3%) have a positive effect on the intention to adopt KUB chickens. The perceived benefits (45.8%) and the perceived ease of raising KUB chickens (50.1%) have a very positive effect on the attitude variable of the farmer. Important people including family members have an important role in supporting the maintenance of KUB chickens, while extension workers have not contributed much in supporting breeders to adopt KUB chickens. Collaboration of two theories has a mutually influencing relationship, especially towards attitudes and intentions to adopt KUB chickens which have a positive effect on the adoption rate. The adoption rate of KUB chicken is 3.32 (66.40%), this shows that the adoption rate of breeders in the Central Java region, is classified as high adoption.

Pemaknaan Etika Jurnalisme Warga oleh Jurnalis Warga Tempo Witness di Wilayah Jawa Tengah

Awareness of the importance of conveying phenomena that are around us is in line with proficiency in utilizing information technology to shape citizens like journalists. The ease with which citizens become like journalists awakens the intention of citizens to uphold the truth by becoming citizen journalists. However, various implementations of citizen journalism ethics that are difficult to implement are actually a challenge in itself. It even creates a temptation to apply citizen journalism ethics. These challenges and temptations diverted their original intention as citizen journalists. They do not comply with the code of ethics that applies when carrying out journalistic activities. This research aims to explore the interpretation of citizen journalism ethics by citizen journalists of Tempo Witness in the Central Java region, which is the region with the highest intensity of sending news reports. Qualitative approaches, phenomenological methods, and symbolic interaction theory serve to explore the motives, experiences, and agreements of citizen journalists in implementing citizen journalism ethics. The results showed that the three informants interpreted the ethical aspects of citizen journalism morality well, they maintained good manners and maintained the quality of news reports. However, two out of three informants did not apply citizen journalism ethics by accepting gifts from the sources, in the form of money and goods.

PENERAPAN MANAJEMEN RISIKO DI UNIT KERJA RMIK

Background: TPPRJ as a leading unit that provides services to patients needs to minimize the risks and hazard that can be experienced by officers and patients. From a preliminary study at one of the local government hospitals in the Central Java region, it was found that at the outpatient registration point there was no Standar Procedur Operational (SPO) regarding risk management, so there was no standard set for risk control for officers and patients.Objective: The purpose of this study is to identify the application of risk management in the outpatient registration site (TPPRJ) of the hospital.Method: The type of research used in this study is qualitative descriptive with a case study design. The subjects of the study were 4 informants determined by purposive sampling techniques. Data collection through interviews and observationsResults: There are several risk factors in TPPRJ, namely from physical aspects (air temperature, lighting, radiation), biological aspects and ergonomic aspects. From the results of interviews and observations, it is known that the implementation of risk management in hospitals has been running, but it is still not optimal because it has not yet reached a comprehensive evaluation from the hospital's quality management.Conclusion: Risk management has been running but has not been maximized, because there is no SPO that specifically regulates risk management at TPPRJ. The risk management process that has been running is to identify risks, risk analysis and risk control.Keywords: Risk Management, RMIK Work Unit, TPPRJ

Mapping the critical level of water infiltration areas in the western of Mijen sub-district, Semarang City, Central Java

Semarang City as the capital of Central Java Province is the main destination for urbanization in the Central Java region, which causes population density in Semarang City to increase, resulting in the development of land functions that can interfere with water infiltration areas. The western sub-district of Mijen, Semarang City, which is located on the border of Semarang City with Kendal Regency, and Semarang Regency, has also become a place for land use development due to the dense urban area. From these problems, research was conducted on the criticality of water infiltration areas in the western part of Mijen Subdistrict in order to be taken into consideration by the government to make policies. This research uses primary data in the form of soil and lithology mapping, and secondary data in the form of land use and slope, which are then verified in the field. The data were analyzed using the AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) method by creating a pairwise comparison matrix on each parameter, and subparameter, which was then overlay. The western part of Mijen Sub-district has a good level of criticality of water infiltration areas located in parts of Wonoplumbon Village, Ngadirgo Village, Tambangan Village, and a small part of Cangkiran Village. Naturally normal conditions and starting to be critical are relatively evenly distributed throughout the research area. Slightly critical, critical, to very critical conditions are located in the center of Wonoplumbom Village, north of Ngadirgo Village, and south of Cangkiran Village, and Bubakan Village.

Identification of soil characteristics in the Central Java Region using the HVSR (Horizontal to Vertical Spectral Ratio) inversion method

This research aims as one of the efforts to mitigate earthquake disasters by using the HVSR method based on microtremor data at 28 BMKG seismic stations in the central Java Island region to estimate the dominant frequency (f0) and amplification (A0) that describe the dynamic characteristics of the soil and analyse the shear wave velocity at a depth of 30 meters (Vs30). The dominant frequency values in the study area range from 0.648 to 18.257 Hz. The amplification values scattered in the study area ranged from 0.788 - 7.496. This research also produces dominant period parameters (T0) and seismic vulnerability (Kg). The highest seismic vulnerability values are at BUJI in Buayan, Kebumen; GBJI in Gringsing, Batang; and SBJM in Sanden, Bantul. In addition, the Vs30 value is helpful to determine how strong the building foundation resists earthquakes. Based on the Vs value in the ground profile with ellipticity curve modelling, the Vs30 value ranges from 204.756 - 903.046 m/s. The distribution of Vs30 values shows that the research points in central Java are spread by a variety of hard and very dense soil types to soft rock (SC).

Changing of return periods of extreme rainfall using satellite observation in Java Island

As a flood-prone area and a centre of activity in Indonesia, the high intensity of rainfall needs to be watched out for. Excessive rainfall can lead to disastrous outcomes like floods and landslides. Analyzing the frequency of extreme rainfall events, calculated by a statistical approach involving employing probability distribution models and generalized extreme value distributions. Return levels are defined as the maximum value that will be exceeded once in a given time period. This study aims to map changes in maximum rainfall that have occurred repeatedly on the island of Java in the last 40 years. Changes in the rainfall return period are detected using CHIRPS rainfall estimates, by calculating every 20 years. The calculation results show high rainfall intensity in the south of Java Island for all return periods and there is an increase in rainfall in the north of Jakarta. The southern region of West Java and Central Java has also experienced a relatively high increase in rainfall intensity, especially over a 20-year period. Meanwhile in East Java Province, increased rainfall occurred in the easternmost part of the province.
