Cultural-Value-Based Bureaucratic Reform in North Halmahera Regency International Journal of Administrative Science & Organization, May 2014 Volume 21, Number 2 Bisnis & Birokrasi, Jurnal Ilmu Administrasi dan Organisasi Cultural-Value-Based Bureaucratic Reform in North Halmahera Regency A. GAU KADIR Department of Political and Government Study, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Universitas Hasanuddin, Makassar, Indonesia [email protected] Abstract. Researches on bureaucratic reform based on cultural value (cultural approach) are rarely found. In fact, the combining use of structural and cultural approaches in government bureaucratic reform can be expected to encourage the achievement of bureaucratic reform objectives. This study chose the location in North Halmahera Regency, where the community still uphold the cultural values as represented in its cultural symbol of “Hibua Lamo.” The research uses a qualitative method and the technique of content analysis. “Hibua Lamo” gives birth to various cultural values and social norms that are formally enacted, putting “Hibua Lamo” into a pattern of organization in society and government. The Regent of North Halmahera implemented a bureaucratic reform in his local governance based on the considerations of balance between “institutional power” according to legislation and social norms institutionalized in “Hibua Lamo”. The combined consideration of balance between the legislation and the institutionalized social norms made the Regent of North Halmahera capable to implement the policies of bureaucratic reform in North Halmahera, thereby building an efficient, effective and well-performed bureaucracy as well as reducing poverty from 57.16% to 9.97%, increasing annual per capita income of about 30%, and encouraging economic growth in North Halmahera Regency approximately 6.04%. Keywords: bureaucratic reform, cultural values, social norms, hibua lamo Abstrak. Penelitian tentang reformasi birokrasi berbasis pada nilai-nilai budaya (pendekatan budaya) masih jarang ditemukan. Padahal, perpaduan pendekatan struktural dan budaya dalam reformasi birokrasi pemerintahan bisa diharapkan mendorong pencapaian tujuan reformasi birokrasi. Penelitian ini memilih lokasi di Kabupaten Halmahera Utara, dimana masyarakatnya masih sangat menjunjung tinggi nilai-nilai budaya yang tersimpul dalam simbol budaya “Hibua Lamo”, dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif dan teknik analisis isi.

  • Local Trade Networks in Maluku in the 16Th, 17Th and 18Th Centuries
    CAKALELEVOL. 2, :-f0. 2 (1991), PP. LOCAL TRADE NETWORKS IN MALUKU IN THE 16TH, 17TH, AND 18TH CENTURIES LEONARD Y. ANDAYA U:-fIVERSITY OF From an outsider's viewpoint, the diversity of language and ethnic groups scattered through numerous small and often inaccessible islands in Maluku might appear to be a major deterrent to economic contact between communities. But it was because these groups lived on small islands or in forested larger islands with limited arable land that trade with their neighbors was an economic necessity Distrust of strangers was often overcome through marriage or trade partnerships. However, the most . effective justification for cooperation among groups in Maluku was adherence to common origin myths which established familial links with societies as far west as Butung and as far east as the Papuan islands. I The records of the Dutch East India Company housed in the State Archives in The Hague offer a useful glimpse of the operation of local trading networks in Maluku. Although concerned principally with their own economic activities in the area, the Dutch found it necessary to understand something of the nature of Indigenous exchange relationships. The information, however, never formed the basis for a report, but is scattered in various documents in the form of observations or personal experiences of Dutch officials. From these pieces of information it is possible to reconstruct some of the complexity of the exchange in MaJuku in these centuries and to observe the dynamism of local groups in adapting to new economic developments in the area. In addition to the Malukans, there were two foreign groups who were essential to the successful integration of the local trade networks: the and the Chinese.

  • INTRODUCTION Prince Nuku of Tidore Is Recognized As One Of
    INTRODUCTION Prince Nuku of Tidore is recognized as one of the national heroes (pahlawan nasional) of Indonesia. He was the leader of a successful rebel- lion against the Dutch East India Company (Verenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie, VOC) and its indigenous allies which lasted for more than twenty years. Born as a Tidoran prince between 1725 and 1735, he passed away as the Sultan of Tidore in 1805.1 In 1780 he fled from Tidore seek- ing refuge in East Seram, Halmahera, and the Raja Ampat from where he launched the rebellion. In 1797 he returned to Tidore with his allied forces and conquered the Sultanates of both Bacan and Tidore. During his exile, Nuku had to fight the forces of the three VOC Governments in Maluku: Ternate, Ambon, and Banda.2 Besides possessing better weapon- ry and equipment, the VOC could also mobilize its indigenous subjects from places such as Ambon and Ternate as troops. In addition, the VOC often dispatched support forces such as ships, weaponry, and soldiers to Maluku from Batavia. In 1801, in close collaboration with the English, Nuku managed to defeat the VOC in Ternate and its indigenous ally, the Ternate Sultanate. Prince Nuku and his Tidoran adherents depended to a large extent on the support they received from various groups of Malukans and Papuans and the assistance of the English. It is intriguing to see what strategies he employed to maintain support among the Tidorans at home, his adher- ents in the periphery of Tidore, and even the English. Geographical and historical setting In the early sixteenth century, Maluku—known as the Spice Islands— became the target of European traders who were competing to obtain cloves and nutmegs.

Stresemann (1914b: 360). INTRODUCTION For the past thirty years I have, from time to time, come across bird material and literature records which have added localities and in a few instances have ad• ded new species, to Van Bemmel's (1948) list of birds of the Moluccan Islands and its supplement, published five years later (Van Bemmel & Voous, 1953). I have kept notes of these additions with the vague idea of perhaps, some time in the future, publishing a revised edition of the list of the avifauna of the Moluc• cas, zoogeographically one of the most interesting regions of the world. The sum total of my notes to date would hardly have justified publication, were it not for the fact that a new list of Moluccan birds was in the course of preparation by the late C. M. N. White, and is to be posthumously completed and published (cf. Benson, 1979; Cranbrook, 1980). This made it desirable to have my notes published, so that they will be available for inclusion in the new list. Ornithological activity in the Moluccas since the publication of Van BemmePs list has been limited. Many of De Haan's results were already incorporated in the paper by Van Bemmel & Voous (1953); subsequently two new subspecies from his collections were described by Jany (1955).

  • THE BLOODSHED in NORTH HALMAHERA: Roots, Escalation, and Reconciliation
    THE BLOODSHED IN NORTH HALMAHERA: Roots, Escalation, and Reconciliation USMAN1 Abstract This paper aims to explain the conflict on North Maluku Island or North Halmahera in 1999 to be more specific. When compared with the conflict in Ambon, the conflict in North Halmahera is much greater in terms of the number of victims and material losses. There are several factors that influenced the conflict such as politics, economics and religion. It seems that politics and religion were the dominant underlying factors of the conflict.At that time, the mass media did not report the conflict effectively, so that the resolution of the conflict came too late and the conflict escalated and spread to the entire region of North Maluku. The most fundamental thing causing the conflict was associated with regional growth (pemekaran), namely the emergence of a new sub-district within the existing sub-district of Kao. The new sub-district was created by the Makian, who are migrants from the island of Kie Besi in North Maluku. They pushed the government to establish a new sub-district of Makian Daratan within the sub-district of Kao. The Pagu people,natives to the area, rejected the regional growth. There was a demonstration that ended in a fight between the Pagu and the Makian. Coincidentally, most of the Pagu are Christian and all of theMakian areMuslim. This led to religious issues becoming a factor with certain parties. As a result, this was a horizontal conflict wrapped with religious issues. In terms of methodology, this paper was written using a qualitative approach that produces descriptive data about the conflicts in North Halmahera.

This research used a qualitative method and case study approach. The method used in this research is qualitative with case study approach. This research conducted in Kakara Island, Tagalaya Island, Bobale Island, Kumo Island, Luari Beach, Paca Lake, Duma Lake, and Mamuya Hot Spring as the priority in North Halmahera Tourism Development Program by local government. The results of the evaluation indicate that the bureaucratic system, resources (human resources and sources of funding), the disposition of the commissioning and coordination was instrumental in the process of implementation of the policy on tourism. The implications of the implementation of tourism policy hampered are the lack of participation of the community and damage to facilities and access for tourism which threaten the sustainability of tourism. Thus, it can be noted that the challenges in the development of the leading tourist attraction in North Halmahera Regency are the effort to increase community participation through partnerships to achieve sustainable tourism.
