Journal of Social and Administrative Sciences www.kspjournals.org Volume 6 December 2019 Issue 4 Evaluation of Papua provincial assets: Case study on non utilized and non optimized assets of integrated economic development zone (KAPET) of biak By Don Augusthinus L. FLASSY a†, Keterina KAFIAR b, Josefint WANDOSA b, Nehemia SEKAITELES b, Yohanis MANDIK b, & Yane ANSANAY ba† Abstract. This paper evaluates Papua provincial assets which are not utilized or not optimally utilized in Integrated Economic Development Zone (KAPET) of Biak. Through a case study analysis, direct observation, direct interview and literature studies conducted in this research, we found that the KAPET of Biak assets which also are the Papua provincial government’s assets have not been consistently well maintained and protected. Several assets were unutilized and were abandoned. Considering the great potentials of KAPET- Biak area which has cultural richness, rich resources area, strategic position in the middle of world economic growth triangle and on the hub of the global route for trading in pacific region. It would be better to develop the KAPET-Biak and its assets for further zonal developmental concept in this more global world. The provincial government and all stake holders can also develop and utilize several assets to be the part of research and educational center (LIPTEK Lab and office). Keywords. Provincial assets, KAPET of Biak, direct observation, zonal developmental concept, research and educational center. JEL. D91, J24, J28, O14, Z22. 1. Introduction he main ideas which backed up this research are as follows: 1) The assets of government both in physical and/or non-moving assets T have historical and philosophical values. -
A New Species of Synchonnus (Coleoptera: Lycidae) from New Guinea, with an Identifi Cation Key to the Papuan Species
ACTA ENTOMOLOGICA MUSEI NATIONALIS PRAGAE Published 30.vi.2017 Volume 57(1), pp. 153–160 ISSN 0374-1036 http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:C47634CE-13B8-4011-9CEB-A1F0A7E02CF9 doi: 10.1515/aemnp-2017-0064 A new species of Synchonnus (Coleoptera: Lycidae) from New Guinea, with an identifi cation key to the Papuan species Dominik KUSY Department of Zoology, Faculty of Science, Palacky University, 17. listopadu 50, CZ-771 46 Olomouc, Czech Republic; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The Papuan fauna of Synchonnus Waterhouse, 1879 contains only four species distributed in Mysool, Japen, and New Guinea and is less diversifi ed than those of the continental Australia where 16 species have been recorded. Synchon- nus occurs in lowlands and in lower mountain forests. A new species, Synchonnus etheringtoni sp. nov., is described from New Guinea, and S. testaceithorax Pic, 1923 is redescribed. All Papuan species are keyed. Key words. Coleoptera, Lycidae, Synchonnus, taxonomy, new species, morpho- logy, key, New Guinea Introduction Papuan net-winged beetles are represented mostly by the subtribe Metriorrhynchina (Ly- cidae: Metriorrhynchini), and only a few other net-winged beetle tribes and subfamilies have been recorded in New Guinea and the adjacent islands (BOCAK & BOCAKOVA 2008; SKLENAROVA et al. 2013). Although the fi rst Papuan species were described already at the beginning of the 19th century by GUÉRIN-MÉNEVILLE (1830–1838) and further about two hundred species before the second world war (KLEINE 1926), the diversity of the Papuan net-winged beetle fauna has not been systematically studied except for a few genus restricted reviews (e.g., BOCAKOVA 1992, BOCEK & BOCAK 2016). -

The purpose of this research is to discover Accepted: 29-08-2018 the local isolate toxicity of B. thuringiensis from Auky Island Padaido District in Biak Numfor Regency against mosquito larva Anopheles sp ., Corresponding Author: Lantang Daniel as well as to discover the local isolate of B. thuringiensis with toxicity Department of Biology, ≥85 of laboratory scale. The method used in the research is toxicity Cenderawasih University, detection method where 1ose colony inserted into a container Indonesia containing 200 mL sterile soil water and 20 larvae of Anopheles instar Email: [email protected] 3 for 24 h. The percentage of larval deaths is calculated by the number of dead larvae divided by the total number of larvae multiplied by 100%. The result of the research shows three isolates (ABNP 8, ABNP P and ABNP 11) of isolate local B. thuringiensis which the toxicity is ≥ 85%. The difference in toxicity may becaused by the difference of strain, the ability of the enzymes in larvae stomach to dissolve δ endotoxin, in which when dissolved in insect gut, it will turn into shorter insecticidal peptides (27-149 kd) and subsequently interact with epithelium cells in the larval midgut and cause pores formation (very small holes) inside the channel digestion membrane and disrupt the osmotic balance, the cell swells and eventually ruptures causing the death of larvae. -

Governing New Guinea New
Governing New Guinea New Guinea Governing An oral history of Papuan administrators, 1950-1990 Governing For the first time, indigenous Papuan administrators share their experiences in governing their country with an inter- national public. They were the brokers of development. After graduating from the School for Indigenous Administrators New Guinea (OSIBA) they served in the Dutch administration until 1962. The period 1962-1969 stands out as turbulent and dangerous, Leontine Visser (Ed) and has in many cases curbed professional careers. The politi- cal and administrative transformations under the Indonesian governance of Irian Jaya/Papua are then recounted, as they remained in active service until retirement in the early 1990s. The book brings together 17 oral histories of the everyday life of Papuan civil servants, including their relationship with superiors and colleagues, the murder of a Dutch administrator, how they translated ‘development’ to the Papuan people, the organisation of the first democratic institutions, and the actual political and economic conditions leading up to the so-called Act of Free Choice. Finally, they share their experiences in the UNTEA and Indonesian government organisation. Leontine Visser is Professor of Development Anthropology at Wageningen University. Her research focuses on governance and natural resources management in eastern Indonesia. Leontine Visser (Ed.)
