Centre for Tropical Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Gadjah Mada Methods: Medical records were obtained of smear-positive TB patients who were University, Yogyakarta, Indonesia receiving treatment at DOTS facilities, located at 27 primary health centres and one hospital, during the period January to July 2012. Data on home addresses Address for correspondence: from all cases were geocoded into latitude and longitude coordinates, using global Dr Dyah WSR Wardani, Department of Public Health, positioning system (GPS) tools. The coordinate data were then analysed using Faculty of Medicine, SaTScan. University of Lampung, Indonesia Results: Two significant clusters were identified with P value of 0.05 for the Email: [email protected] primary cluster and 0.1 for the secondary cluster. Clusters occurred in areas with high population density and a high proportion of poor families and poor housing conditions. The short radius of the clusters also indicated the possibility of local transmission of TB. Conclusions: The incidence of TB in Bandar Lampung was not randomly distributed, but significantly concentrated in two clusters. Identification of clusters of TB, together with its etiological factors such as social determinants, and risk factors, can be used to support TB control programmes, particularly those aiming to reach vulnerable populations, and intensified case-finding. Key words: Cluster, housing condition, poor family, population density, tuberculosis INTRODUCTION Development Goals (MDGs), are to halve the prevalence and mortality of TB by 2015 in comparison to their levels in Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by 1990.2–4 Mycobacterium tuberculosis. About one third of the world’s population is infected with M. tuberculosis and the incidence TB control averted up to 6 million deaths and cured 36 million of TB has a great potential to increase.1 Since 1947, the people in 1995–2008. Unfortunately, control programmes World Health Organization (WHO) has been conducting TB had less success in reducing the incidence of TB, which only control through various control programmes, such as mass declined by 0.7% per year during 2004–2008. Moreover, BCG vaccination and improved chemotherapy, management the decline occurred only in some American and European and service programmes, as well as implementation of the countries, none of which are among the 13 WHO high-burden directly observed treatment, short course (DOTS) strategy. countries, which are mainly in sub-Saharan Africa and South- In 2000, WHO initiated the Stop-TB Partnership, in order to East Asia.3,5–7 The incidence of TB globally in 2010 was improve the effectiveness of TB-control programmes globally. estimated to be 8.8 million, which is equivalent to 128 cases The Stop-TB Partnership targets, included in the Millennium per 100 000 in the population.

Based on the Bandar Lampung Municipality Health Bandar Lampung is located in southern part of the Sumatra Office TB reports of 2010 and 2011, although the TB cure rate Island, about 200 km west of the Indonesian capital city of in 2009 and 2010 reached 80–85%, TB case notification in the Jakarta (see Figure 1). Medical records of smear-positive TB city during that period increased, from 112/100 000 population patients who were receiving TB treatment during January in 2009 to 114/100 000 population in 2010.12,13 Spatially, TB to July 2012 were obtained from 27 primary health centres case notification within the city was not equally distributed: and one hospital across the 13 submunicipalities of Bandar some submunicipalities had TB case notification of more than Lampung City.

  • Reconnaissance Study Of
    (a) Large Reservoir and Small Pump Capacity In most drainage areas, a pumping station is characterized by storage of flood in a large reservoir placed at the pumping station so as to minimize pump capacity, thus initial cost and operation cost. Table 3.18 includes data of pump capacity and area of reservoir attached. However, as explained in the 1973 Master Plan Study Report, if pumps are small, the reservoir may not yet empty before the next rainstorm. (b) Complicated Network of Drainage System The pump drainage areas in the DKI Jakarta have complicated network of drains with a lot of gates. Flood water is so controlled by gates to distribute optimum discharge to downstream in consideration of flow capacity of main drain, pump capacity as well as down stream water level including Sea Level. (c) Planning without Consideration of Secondary and Tertiary Drains The other characteristics of drainage system in the DKI Jakarta is that existing pump capacity and starting water level of a reservoir of a pump drainage area are so determined that highest water level or the Design Flood Level along the main drain is lower than the existing bank elevation for one day flood with 25-year return period, assuming that most of rainfall can be drained to the main drain. However, there are a lot of flood prone areas in pump drainage areas. One cause of inundation in flood prone areas may be improper installation/maintenance of secondary/tertiary drains, though gravity drain can be attained. Also high Design Flood Level of main drain may be other causes why rainwater is difficult to be drained.

  • The Case of Central Kalimantan Province, Indonesia
    Quarterly Journal of International Agriculture 54 (2015), No. 1: 77-100 Governance, Decentralisation and Deforestation: The Case of Central Kalimantan Province, Indonesia Aritta Suwarno and Lars Hein Wageningen University, The Netherlands Elham Sumarga Wageningen University, The Netherlands, and School of Life Sciences and Technology, ITB Bandung, Indonesia Abstract The implementation of the decentralisation policies in Indonesia, which started in 2000, has fundamentally changed the country’s forest governance framework. This study investigates how decentralisation has influenced forest governance, and links the forest governance to deforestation rates at the district level. We measure and compare the quality of forest governance in 11 districts in Central Kalimantan province in the periods 2000-2005 and 2005-2010 and relate forest governance to deforestation rate. This study shows that decentralisation has led to marked differences in forest govern- ance between districts and that deforestation rates is strongly related to the change of forest governance. We recommend revisiting the Indonesian forest governance framework to ensure more checks and balances in decision making, better monitoring and increased transparency, with particular support for Forest Management Units as a new tool for forest management, and government support to facilitate the design and implementation of REDD+ projects. Keywords: Indonesia, decentralisation, deforestation, forest governance JEL: H110 1 Introduction Indonesian forests account for around 2.3% of global forest cover (FAO, 2010) and represent 44% of the Southeast Asian forested area (KOH et al., 2013). According to the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry (MOF, 2011), the total designated forest area in Indonesia was about 131 million ha. In 2009/2010, approximately 98 million ha of the designated forest area was still forested (MOF, 2011).

This approach is often limited by the use of symbols or physical form that is considered to represent Islam and usually come from the Middle East. This can be seen from the development of the mosque construction and rehabilitation of traditional mosques tend to forget the local aspect as well as the values and the basic principles of Islam. Traditional Mosque of Palembang is one of the local identity of people in Palembang as well as a dedicated and have a special law as buildings of worship of Muslims (madaniyah typical). The purpose of this research is to be able to see the typology of the traditional mosque in Palembang viewed from different aspects findings in the field, as well as determine the factors that influence in its formation. This research used a case study and the basic theory of the interior in the aspects of forming the typology of Palembang traditional mosque. The results showed the typology of the traditional mosque in the city of Palembang were influenced by values and basic principles of Islam and cultural values locally based.

  • 2018 Findings on the Worst Forms of Child Labor: Indonesia
    Indonesia MODERATE ADVANCEMENT In 2018, Indonesia made a moderate advancement in efforts to eliminate the worst forms of child labor. The government substantially increased its labor inspectorate funding from $2.1 million in 2017 to $10.2 million with specific funds allocated to enforcing child labor regulations. It also conducted 19,792 labor inspections and continued working with the International Organization for Migration to establish a comprehensive integrated Trafficking in Persons database. However, children in Indonesia engage in the worst forms of child labor, including in commercial sexual exploitation, sometimes as the result of human trafficking. Children also perform dangerous tasks in plantation agriculture, including in palm oil and tobacco production. The Ministry of Manpower continued to lack the financial resources and personnel necessary to adequately enforce child labor laws throughout the country. In addition, the Domestic Workers Protection Bill, which has been under consideration since 2010, continued to languish in parliament. I. PREVALENCE AND SECTORAL DISTRIBUTION OF CHILD LABOR Children in Indonesia engage in the worst forms of child labor, including in commercial sexual exploitation, sometimes as the result of human trafficking.

Bogor Agricultural University Abstract The limited supply of clean water led to some residents in the city, as well as business and trade areas using underground water. Optimization of land used in the development of new towns and expanded impervious land surface, thus reducing infiltration capacity, resulting in an increased volume of runoff. The use of underground water and the reduced infiltration of rainwater resulted in a decrease in the underground water table. To maintain the underground water table and preventing land subsidence resulted from the use of underground water as raw material for clean water. The effort required is how doing underground water conservation. This paper discusses the development of new towns to assess the natural landscape as underground water conservation efforts on the development of the new town. The research method uses a quantitative approach to calculate the potential runoff using a soil conservation service, while to analyze the trend of changes in land cover using temporal spatial analysis, using descriptive analysis.

Base Rent Growth But following almost 3 months of temporary closures, the retail centers in Debotabek (as with Jakarta), began their phased reopening in mid June, as the Government eased some the PSBB measures. 20.9% Vacancy Rate Just before Indonesia reported its first COVID-19 cases in March, 2 new retail centers both located in Bogor (namely Boxies 123 Mall and Vivo Sentul Mall), commenced their soft openings. The completion of these two centers added approximately 58,700 sqm of retail space to the market. 2 other centers, The Park Sawangan and Aeon Mall Sentul City, which were initially scheduled to open in the first half of 2020, saw their start of 58,700 sqm operations delayed into the second semester. YTD New Completions DEMAND: Overall Occupancy Rate Fell Below 80% The impact of this caused retailers to be far more cautious towards expansion and saw overall occupancy in Debotabek fall below 80% for the first time since 2015, with net take-up of negative 7,800 sqm recorded during the first half of the year, a drop of 2.2% since the last semester to 79.1%.
