Rapid rebuilding of tsunami affected areas carried out by the government and the community in the last decade has completed gradually, but the impact along the coastline towards the mainland of Aceh Jaya Regency is occurring. To obtain accurate data against this change, multi-temporal data is needed in order to present information about the changes occurred from the past to current state. This research aims to observe the changes of land use and cover change in coastal geomorphology by utilizing multi-temporal remote sensing data. This research uses qualitative descriptive method based on multi-temporal satellite imagery interpretation results for 2004, 2009 and 2017 respectively. Supervised classification with maximum likelihood analysis standard was carried out. Geomorphology change of the shoreline was designated by interpretation and overlay temporal satellite image data. Results show that types of land cover have changed, primarily to vegetation, open land, water body with vary in the total area follow the year of observation. Abrasion and accretion has occurred on the site of research reached the area of 457.90 hectares and an area of 5.78 hectares. In term of coastal geomorphology, some area of the location has changed with vary in length and width. Key words: land cover, coastal geomorphology, multi-temporal, Aceh Jaya .

Sampai saat ini penelitian masih terfokus di pesisir timur dan pegunungan tengah Aceh, Pesisir barat Aceh belum pernah diteliti. Pesisir barat Aceh merupakan wilayah yang memiliki bentangalam kars cukup luas, dan memiliki potensi gua yang mungkin digunakan sebagai lokasi hunian pada masa lalu. Salah satu metode yang digunakan adalah memprediksi keberadaan gua dengan peta topografi, peta geologi, serta digital elevation model (DEM). Selain itu, hasil inventarisasi gua yang pernah dilakukan di wilayah pesisir barat Aceh juga digunakan sebagai data awal untuk memperoleh sebaran gua dan ceruk. Pada penelitian ini lingkup wilayah yang disurvei adalah Kabupaten Aceh Besar. Tiga parameter gua hunian, yaitu morfologi dan genesa, lingkungan, serta kandungan arkeologis, digunakan untuk memperoleh gambaran potensi masing-masing gua. Sebelas gua dan ceruk yang telah ditemukan menunjukkan adanya tiga buah gua berpotensi sebagai lokasi hunian dan diteliti lebih lanjut, empat gua berpotensi sebagai lokasi hunian tetapi tidak berpotensi untuk diteliti, dan empat gua berkategori tidak potensial sebagai lokasi hunian. Kata Kunci: Gua; Ceruk; Karst; Pesisir Barat Aceh; Prasejarah ABSTRACT The evidence of prehistoric life in Aceh has been proven by the results of archeological research conducted by the Archaeology Research Office of North Sumatera.

11 Perbandingan Kinerja Pembangunan Sosial Dan Ekonomi Kabupaten Aceh Barat Dengan Kabupaten Pemekarannya Tahun 2011-2019 Compar
PERBANDINGAN KINERJA PEMBANGUNAN SOSIAL DAN EKONOMI KABUPATEN ACEH BARAT DENGAN KABUPATEN PEMEKARANNYA TAHUN 2011-2019 COMPARISON OF SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PERFORMANCE BETWEEN ACEH BARAT REGENCY AND IT’S EXTENDED REGENCIES PERIOD 2011-2019 Reza Septian Pradana1 1Fungsional Statistisi Ahli BPS Kabupaten Aceh Jaya Jalan Banda Aceh-Meulaboh Km 152, Keutapang, Calang, Aceh Jaya e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRAK Pemekaran daerah merupakan suatu kebijakan desentralisasi yang memiliki filosofi untuk meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat dengan cara mengoptimalkan potensi sumber daya daerah yang bersangkutan baik dari aspek ekonomi, sosial, maupun pemerintahan. Namun dalam pelaksanaannya, banyak daerah pemekaran yang gagal dalam mengoptimalkan potensinya dan bermuara pada ketertinggalan/perlambatan pertumbuhan daerah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbandingan kondisi kinerja pembangunan sosial dan ekonomi kabupaten pemekaran terhadap kabupaten induknya pasca pemekaran daerah. Kinerja pembangunan sosial diukur dengan angka kemiskinan, angka harapan hidup, angka rata-rata lama sekolah, dan indeks pembangunan manusia sedangkan kinerja pembangunan ekonomi diukur dengan pertumbuhan ekonomi. Studi kasus dilakukan pada tiga kabupaten pemekaran, yaitu Aceh Jaya, Nagan Raya, dan Simeulue serta kabupaten induk, yaitu Aceh Barat. Perbandingan dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji beda dua rata-rata (uji–t) dengan periode data 2011-2019. Secara statistik, perbedaan kinerja pembangunan ekonomi Kabupaten Aceh Barat dibandingkan kabupaten pemekarannya tidak signifikan. Ditinjau dari kinerja pembangunan sosial, Kabupaten Aceh Jaya secara signifikan sudah lebih baik dibandingkan kabupaten induk dalam upaya pengentasan kemiskinan. Kabupaten Nagan Raya secara signifikan sudah lebih baik dibandingkan kabupaten induk dalam upaya peningkatan kualitas kesehatan masyarakat. Hasil penelitian ini dapat digunakan sebagai bahan evaluasi sederhana bagi pemerintah daerah setempat dalam memutuskan kebijakan untuk pemekaran daerah selanjutnya.

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.
