IMPACT of POPULATION MIGRATION in TESSO NILO NATIONAL PARK RIAU PROVINCE Harapan Tua RFS and Mimin Sundari Nasution Lecturer Of Sosiohumaniora: Jurnal Ilmu-ilmu Sosial dan Humaniora Vol, 23, No. 1, March 2021: 72-79 ISSN 1411 - 0903 : eISSN: 2443-2660 IMPACT OF POPULATION MIGRATION IN TESSO NILO NATIONAL PARK RIAU PROVINCE Harapan Tua RFS and Mimin Sundari Nasution Lecturer of Public Administration Faculty Social Science and Political Science University of Riau Email: [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT. The Tesso Nilo National Park is a conservation area that should be free from settlements and plantations. The migrants who come to the TNTN area are generally tough farmers who come from various ethnic groups such as Javanese, Batak, Palembang, even now there are Toro Bali. This study aims to look at Population Migration in Toro Jaya Hamlet, in the TNTN Area and the Impact of Population Migration on Forest Damage in the TNTN Area. This research uses a qualitative approach. Key Research Informants were selected by purposive and then using the snow ball sampling technique to determine the next informant. The method of data collection was done by means of in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, documentation. Then the data is analyzed based on the Interactive analysis model. The results show that population migration in TNTN has increased significantly coupled with the birth rate of the population, which on average are couples of productive age, which has made fertile land for population growth in TNTN. The smooth accessibility with the entry of public transportation vehicles (buses) to TNTN, especially Dusun Toro Jaya, coupled with the production of their “oil palm” plantation crops have also become a pull factor for many people to migrate to TNTN. This migration of the population has resulted in forest encroachment into residential areas and oil palm and rubber plantations. The encroachment will have an impact on the destruction and loss of native forest from Tesso Nilo National Park. Keywords: Population; migration; forest destruction DAMPAK MIGRASI PENDUDUK DI TAMAN NASIONAL TESSO NILO PROVINSI RIAU ABSTRAK. Taman Nasional Tesso Nilo merupakan kawasan konservasi yang seharusnya bebas dari pemukiman dan perkebunan permasalahan pertambahan penduduk yang tidak terkendali akibatnya mudah bagi “migrasi masuk” ke lokasi TNTN dan memberikan dampak kerusakan hutan menjadi semakin parah. Para migran yang datang ke kawasan TNTN tersebut pada umumnya adalah petani tangguh yang berasal dari berbagai suku bangsa seperti Jawa, Batak, Palembang, bahkan sekarang ada Toro Bali. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat Migrasi Penduduk di Dusun Toro Jaya, di Kawasan TNTN serta Dampak Migrasi Penduduk Terhadap Kerusakan Hutan di Kawasan TNTN. Penelitian ini mengunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Lokasi penelitian adalah kawasan hutan Taman Nasional Tesso Nilo yang telah menjadi perkampungan (pemukiman) penduduk.Key Informan Penelitian dipilih dengan menetapkan (purposive) kemudian menggunakan teknik snow ball sampling untuk penentuan informan selanjutnya. Metode pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan cara wawancara mendalam (indepth interview), kelompok diskusi terarah (focus group discussion), dokumentasi. Kemudian data dianalisis berdasarkan model analisis Interactive.Hasil menunjukkan bahwa migrasi penduduk di TNTN meningkat secara signifikan ditambah dengan tingkat kelahiran penduduk yang rata-rata adalah pasangan usia produktif telah menjadikan tanah yang subur bagi pertumbuhan penduduk di TNTN. Aksesibilitas yang lancar dengan masuknya kendaraan umum pengangkut orang (Bus) ke TNTN khususnya Dusun Toro Jaya ditambah dengan telah berproduksinya tanaman perkebunan sawit mereka juga menjadi faktor penarik bagi banyak orang untuk bermigrasi ke TNTN. Migrasi penduduk tersebut mengakibatkan terjadinya perambahan hutan menjadi areal pemukiman dan perkebunan kelapa sawit dan karet. Perambahan tersebut akan berdampak pada rusak dan hilangnya hutan asli dari Taman Nasional Tesso Nilo.

The Minister of Forestry issued a Ministerial Likewise with the Riau Tesso Nilo National Regulation that established Riau Province as the Park (TNTN) Forest area, which the government center for Sumatran elephant conservation (Miles, has designated as an area for nature conservation, 1994).

Population growth in Riau is due to high fertility rates and high in-migration. The high rate of in-migration to Riau province shows that Riau is seen as an area that has rich natural resources coupled with the available accessibility.

Increasingly, it is being touted as a biofuel. Worldwide demand for palm oil has skyrocketed over the past 25 years, and oil palm plantations now cover an area of 11 million hectares. Global production of palm oil is expected to nearly double by 2020. In Indonesia, the area covered by oil palm plantations has reached almost 6 million hectares with the production is the second best to Malaysia. While oil palm production is a major source of income for Indonesia, a main producer country, bad practices in parts of the industry have also brought about high ecological and social costs. Industry growth is fuelling the rapid clearing of the most biodiverse tropical forests in the world, putting pressure on species that need these forests. Forest fires to clear land for plantations are a regular source of haze in Southeast Asia, posing serious health problems.

  • Global Aspirations to Local Actions: Can Orangutan Save Tropical Rainforest ? E
    Global Aspirations to Local Actions: Can Orangutan Save Tropical Rainforest ? E. Purwanto 1 G.A. Limberg 2 Abstract Flagship species are important icons for the international conservation lobby, because they are appealing, and need intact ecosystems for their survival. Orangutans are one such flagship species. However, its habitat continues to be threatened by development plans of both governments and companies. A pulp and paper company adjacent to the Kutai national park in East Kalimantan, complained that orangutans are increasingly a problem, destroying the young acacia trees of the plantation. To explore possible solutions they initiated discussion including a range of stakeholders to develop an orangutan survival action plan. This study presents the views of stakeholders on the importance of orangutans and conservation in general. We also examine examples from elsewhere in Indonesia to analyze the different approaches used by and incentives for stakeholders to participate in saving the flagship species and its habitat. We conclude that international lobby and attention to flagship species does not reach the local stakeholders nor automatically translate into similar vision of stakeholders closest linked to the use and management of the flagship species habitat. This lack of interest and understanding leads to denial of the problem, limited understanding of the extend of the problem or partial solutions. International lobby will put pressure on big companies to adapt better practices, but the risks exists that they look for easy solutions and transfer the responsibility. The local government and population often perceive conservation as contradictionary to development and of limited direct value. What is needed in improve joint responsibility for public good such as conservation area? A mix of attention, incentives and pressure will be needed to ensure that key stakeholders to go beyond quick and superficial solutions.
