  • Sibling Earthquakes Generated Within a Persistent Rupture Barrier on the Sunda Megathrust Under Simeulue Island
    Geophysical Research Letters RESEARCH LETTER Sibling earthquakes generated within a persistent 10.1002/2016GL071901 rupture barrier on the Sunda megathrust Key Points: under Simeulue Island • The 2002 Mw 7.3 and 2008 Mw 7.4 Simeulue earthquakes are “sibling” 1 1 1 1 1 earthquakes that resemble each Paul M.

Yet the of the slab same section generated large earthquakes in 2002 (Mw 7.3) and 2008 (Mw 7.4).

  • The Position and Competence of the Shariah Court of Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam in Indonesia’S Justice System
    Indonesia Law Review (2015) 2 : 165 - 186 ISSN: 2088-8430 | e-ISSN: 2356-2129 THE POSITION AND COMPETENCE OF THE SHARIAH COURT ~ 165 ~ THE POSITION AND COMPETENCE OF THE SHARIAH COURT OF NANGGROE ACEH DARUSSALAM IN INDONESIA’S JUSTICE SYSTEM Sufiarina * * Lecturer at the Faculty of Law Universitas Tama Jagakarsa, Jakarta. Article Info Received : 17 December 2014 | Received in revised form : 7 March 2015 | Accepted : 19 June 2015 Corresponding author’s e-mail : [email protected] Abstract Article 27 paragraph (1) of Law No. 48 Year 2009 regarding Judicial Power states that special courts can only be formed in one of the court systems under the Supreme Court, which include general courts, religious courts, military courts and state administration courts. However, article 3A paragraph (2) of Law No. 50 Year 2009 concerning the Second Amendment to the Law on Religious Court places Shariah Court as a special court within the system of religious courts and as a special court within the system of general courts. Such positioning is inconsistent with Article 27 paragraph (1) of the Law on Judicial Power which raises a legal issue and therefore requires juridical solution. The inconsistency is subject to juridical normative study within the scope of a research concerning the level of horizontal synchronization, using descriptive analysis. The method applied for data collection in this research is through literature study supported by field data. The data obtained is analyzed by using juridical qualitative method. This study concludes that, in fact, the Shariah Court is neither a special court, nor does it stand in two systems of courts.

  • Measuring the Performance of Regional Government: Using Data Envelopment Analysis (Dea) Approach
    MEASURING THE PERFORMANCE OF REGIONAL GOVERNMENT: USING DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS (DEA) APPROACH MEASURING THE PERFORMANCE OF REGIONAL GOVERNMENT: USING DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS (DEA) APPROACH Zainal Putra31*, Muzakir2, and Ishak Hasan3 1, 2 Universitas Teuku Umar, Indonesia 3Universitas Syiah Kuala, Indonesia Abstract The realization of regional government expenditure in Aceh Province from 2011 – 2015 has reached the figure of Rp84.260.616.926.552,00. However, the indicator data of Aceh people’s welfare in 2016 provided information of unemployment rate in Aceh in 2015 at 9,93%. This exceeds the national unemployment rate in the same period of 6.2%. Likewise, the poverty rate of Aceh Province in 2015 was at 17.08%. While nationally, the unemployment rate was at 11.13%. This condition indicated that the regional government were still unable to prosper the people, which also means that the governments were underperformed. This was possible because of inefficient use of resources. Efficiency does not only apply to private sector but also public sector. public sector organizations are now required to be able to operate efficiently to improve the performance. Nowadays, the performance of the local government has been criticized by the public. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a performance measurement toward public organization to know the extent of performance in a certain period accurately. This study aims to determine the efficiency level of regency / city governments in Aceh Province. By using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) approach, it is possible to observe which regency / city governments are performing well. This study uses input variables including regional expenditure, assets, population, civil servants and area.

  • Recognizing Indigenous Knowledge for Disaster Management: Smong, Early Warning System from Simeulue Island, Aceh
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia Environmental Sciences 20 ( 2014 ) 573 – 582 The 4th International Conference on Sustainable Future for Human Security, SustaiN 2013 Recognizing Indigenous Knowledge for Disaster Management: Smong, Early Warning System from Simeulue Island, Aceh Syafwina* Graduate School of Asian and African Areas Studies, Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan Faculty of Engineering, Syiah Kuala University, Banda Aceh, Indonesia Abstract A 9.1M earthquake occurred in Indian Ocean on 26 December 2004 and caused tsunami disaster that devastated many areas in Asian and African countries. Aceh Province, the closest areas from the epicenter, received huge impacts. With no early warning system, poor disaster management, not enough knowledge about tsunami disaster and the huge scale of disaster impacts, it caused a high number of victims. Death toll reached 200,000 people; while in Simeulue Island, the victims were only 7 people from 78,000 of the total population (2000). The story of Smong (means “tsunami in” Devayan Language) that inherited from generation to generation since 1907 saved the Simeulueans. Smong naturally becomes an early warning system anytime earthquakes occur in this island. In other parts of Aceh in Sumatra, stories and messages about tsunami that occurred in the past can be found in some oral literatures, poems and songs; but the community did not recognize them and those cannot be used as Disaster Risk Reduction tool. Indigenous knowledge can be a powerful tool for disaster risk reduction; but, without recognition and utilization, it is merely a part of common things in community. The aim of this research was how to capitalize indigenous knowledge in order to improve disaster management and reduce the risk through the community based on success story of Smong Simeulue.

The topographic changes were measured based on the present position of uplifted coral reefs with geodetic methods. Research results shows northwest part of Simeulue Island uplifted 1.55 up to 1.60 meters after earthquake on December 2004 and three months later southeast part of Simeulue Island and northwest part of Nias Island uplifted 1.70 up to 2.70 meters due to earthquake on March 2005. The raised shallow water reef flats become new land and apart of previously shallowest reef slope become new reef flats. Key word: earthquakes, coral reefs, uplift, Simeulue, Nias islands.
