Sehingga banyak yang tidak mengetahui pertikaian senjata dan perjuangan heroik yang terjadi dalam operasi tersebut. Video game adalah cara yang menarik untuk mengenalkan cerita Operasi Trikora maka dibuatlah game Warship Operation Trikora. Pengembangan game adalah proses membuat konten dan aturan permainan. Terdapat metode proses iterative dalam pengembangan game yaitu membuat prototipe, dimainkan, dan disempurnakan terus berulang kali sebelum dianggap final. Grafis 3D menjadi sarana untuk mencapai generasi dunia fiksi dalam imajinasi pemain yang tumbuh dari pemahaman representasi 3D sehingga membentuk permainan yang immersive. Untuk membangun permainan yang naratif maka game dirancang dengan membuat skenario cerita pertempuran berupa step-step yang terdiri dari kumpulan event dalam permainan. Dari skenario cerita pertempuran terdapat objektif yaitu event yang berupa tugas untuk pemain. Berdasarkan tugasnya objektif dapat dikelompokkan menjadi 5 tipe yaitu lingkup area, pointer lokasi, menyerang kapal, menyerang pesawat, menyerang pillbox. Metode Iterative design digunakaan untuk menguji objektif apabila diterapkan dalam permainan dengan cara membuat rapid prototipe, melakukan playtest, dan melakukan revisi. Aktivitas tersebut dilakukan berulang kali sampai permainan dianggap layak diimplementasikan. Implementasi karakter 3D dibutuhkan agar tercipta asset karakter-karakter yang terlibat dalam skenario cerita pertempuran yaitu terdapat 7 tipe karakter berupa kapal, pesawat, dan pillbox.

  • Konfrontasi: 1963
    BACKGROUND & MECHANICS GUIDE KONFRONTASI: 1963 2 BACKGROUND GUIDE WELCOME FROM THE DIAS Hello Delegates, My name is Yue Ting Kong, and welcome to the SSICsim 2019 JCC, Konfrontasi. Set during the Cold War in Southeast Asia, where Indonesia and the Commonwealth were in a quasi-war over the fate of the unification of Malaysia. In this committee you will encounter counter-insurgency tactics, guerrilla warfare and terrorism. However, you’ll also see the issues brought forth by the Race Riots that took place in Malaysia during its federation and the divide between communists and the non-aligned movements in Indonesia. This two-faced committee will explore an area of the world going through nationalism, decolonization and the Cold War, hoping to advance your nations by achieving a balance between political manoeuvring and military force. History has largely forgotten this conflict and its surrounding events which helped shape the world we live in today. This conflict led to the formation of the Association of Southeast Asian States (ASEAN), and fermented the independence of Malaysia in the international community. The Race Riots that occurred during the war led the independence of Singapore under Lee Kwan Yew and its evolution into a strong Asian Tiger. In Indonesia, it led to the collapse of an increasingly communist regime and the creation of a country who would become incredibly important to the non-aligned movement. A bit of background on myself, I’m a Second Year History Specialist at the University of Toronto and this will be my 7th year doing Model United Nations. Best of luck delegates and I look forward to meeting you all at the conference.

Worman 2021 iii Abstract The Grand Strategies of Middle Powers: Organizational Determinants and Constraints Stephen M. Worman, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2021 What exactly is grand strategy? Is it a phenomenon that can be observed in practice, and in real time? What causes states to adopt the grand strategies they do? This dissertation tackles these questions head on, by proposing a novel theory which explains the form a state’s grand strategy might take. The “organizational determinants of grand strategy” theory posits that disparities in state and organizational-level resources (in the form of money, manpower, and elite attention) influence the form a state’s grand strategy takes, and governs the rate of change.

  • The Indonesianization of Social Medicine
    The Indonesianization of Social Medicine Vivek Neelakantan PhD student, The University of Sydney, Unit for the History and Philosophy of Science Abstract The purpose of social medicine, which began in Europe as an academic discipline during the Second World War, was to investigate the correlation between specific factors such as age, gender, race, heredity, economic circumstances, domestic environment, occupation and nutrition on health. Almost a decade later, Indonesian physicians applied social medicine ideas to promote public health in a country characterized by weak state intervention. These physicians eschewed the narrow correlation between poverty and ill health but reinterpreted social medicine within the Indonesian social context with its entrenched patriarchal system and cultural preferences. The wider theme explored in this article concerns the emergence of social medicine in twentieth-century Indonesia as a critical reaction to Dutch public health policies. The article examines the partnership between Indonesian physicians and the post-colonial state and their shared vision on state-guided social medicine, but does not explore why social medicine failed to usher in a transformation of the nation’s health system. Keywords: Social medicine, Pembangunan, nutrition, famine Introduction on family stability, a patriarchal system, and cultural choices pertaining to food-affected Social medicine began as an academic health outcomes. This article depicts the discipline in Europe at the time of the Second emergence of social medicine in twentieth- World War with the aim to investigate the century Indonesia as a critical reaction to Dutch correlation between specific factors such as age, public health policies. The article contains three gender, race, heredity, economic circumstances, sections.
