Recently, food security becomes a priority for many governments particularly in developing countries. Food security has four dimensions, i.e. availability, accessibility, stability, and utilization. This study examined food accessibility in term of geographic access, i.e. the contribution of the geographic environment to food choices and consumption. The study located in Tanjung Selor Subdistrict, the capital region of Bulungan Regency as well as North Kalimantan Province. Geographic access to food was analysed based on spatial distribution of food stores, settlement, and availability of transportation network. Spatial analysis, i.e. coverage, density, and network analysis, as well as the spatial visualisation were performed using tools available in GIS software. This study revealed some circumstance related to geographical access to food in the study area. Geographical access to food for non-motorized people is limited. Non- motorized people have to walk more than 1 km to the nearest food store. Access to food for motorised people is somewhat different. Their geographical access, in general, were categorised as easy to moderate. This situation indicates that the availability of public transport or vehicle ownership is necessary to improve access to food.

    Mapping Policies and Stakeholders of Foreign Direct Investments in Indonesian Agriculture Sector Mapping of Policies and Stakeholders in Foreign Direct Investment in Indonesia’s Agriculture Sector Mapping of Policies and Stakeholders in Foreign Direct Investment in Indonesia’s Agriculture Sector Authors: Ruben Layukallo, Victoria Fanggidae, Dwi Rahayu Ningrum Researchers: Ruben Layukallo, Dwi Rahayu Ningrum Published by: Perkumpulan PRAKARSA Jl. Rawa Bambu I Blok A No. 8E Pasar Minggu, Jakarta Selatan Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta 12520 © 2016 Perkumpulan PRAKARSA Executive Summary his research takes stock of and maps the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Indonesia’s agricultural sector. The research methodology is qualitative in nature, using case studies in 3 regions of Indonesia to illustrate FDI practices. The work also includes an analysis of secondary quantitative data, for instance on agricultural production trends and investments, and on FDI trends in general. Primary data was obtained usingT qualitative techniques such as field observations and interviews in Jakarta and in the case study areas to record the opinions of stakeholders (governments, foreign business representatives) and people living or working near the plantations regarding foreign investments practices. The findings suggest that most FDI in the agricultural sector is attracted to the large scale plantation sub-sector, high value and export oriented crops, due to the high profits they incur. The palm oil sector alone contributes more than 85% of the FDI in agriculture since 2008. This was driven by an increased global demand, which has nearly doubled in the last two decades, soil and climate suitability, and fiscal incentives such as tax relief. Law No.25/2007 on Foreign Investment is the key policy that encourages and incentivizes FDI in the agricultural sector.

  • Socio-Cultural Structure of Transmigrant Communities in the Salimbatu Area for Accelerating Regional Development of Bulungan Regency, Indonesia

Bulungan Regency as the capital of North Kalimantan Province needs accelerated development to realize its vision as an industrial-based food center. Among the aspects that still need to be worked out are the availability of human resources (HR) as the main driver of the regional economy. It is hoped that the presence of the Transmigrant Community with an agricultural background in the Salimbatu area can make a positive contribution to efforts to accelerate development in Bulungan Regency. By using a combination of literature review study methods reinforced with GIS analysis, this study seeks to reveal the socio-cultural structure of the people in the Salimbatu Transmigration Area and its contribution to improving the agricultural sector to accelerate regional development. The results obtained from this study indicate that the presence of the Transmigrant Community in the Salimbatu area has a proportion where 54.35% of them are native Bulungan people, while the remaining 45.65% are migrants through the Transmigration program. The socio-cultural proportion of the peasant community through the transmigration program to strengthen the regional economy in the agricultural sector in Bulungan Regency currently has not had an optimal impact. 1 Introduction Equitable development between rural and urban areas is very important in reducing inequality in Indonesia [1].

The data were analyzed interactively including data reduction, data display, and verification.In the development, Tidung people in some areas such as in Tarakan are classified as developed; whereas, in other area such as Nunukan, they are classified as people with modest living. The simplicity of Tidung people in Nunukan regency is reflected in their cultural orientation for a homely life. In religious life, Tidung older generation is classified as pluralistic Islam while the young generation tries to release themselves from pluralism in their religion.In this reformation era, the awareness of strengthening political identity is appeared as indicated by the emergence of “Pan Dayak” that reflects brotherhood between the Dayak and Tidung people in PUSAKA (The Association of Kalimantan Natives) organization. The spirit of political identity renaissance should be observed, because Nunukan regency is a pluralistic area especially for the Bugis who control the area, economically and politically.
