Background Water Conservation Area is an area that is managed by zonation system to maintain a balance between the use of marine areas with the protection of marine resources contained in the area, with the main objective is the welfare of communities that exist within the region and outside the region. Based on Permen KP No. 47 year 2016 on Utilization of Water Conservation Area, there are 4 types of utilization that can be done in conservation area that is: Fishing, fish cultivation, marine nature tourism, and research and education. Aquatic Conservation Area Nature Preserve of Pantar Strait Water Area of Alor Regency has been determined by the Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries on 16 June 2015 through the Decree of the Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries no. 35 year 2015. With an area of 276,693.38 hectares. The objectives of this SAP establishment are the management and protection of coral reef ecosystems, seagrass beds, mangroves, sustainable fisheries, and protected biota such as turtles, sharks and manta rays, as well as marine mammals including whales, dolphins and dugongs. SAP Pantar Strait is one of the conservation areas that was blessed with the existence of Dugong. Duyung or in English is often referred to as Dugong / Sea cow and in Latin called Dugong dugon is a type of marine mammal-eating plants (herbivore), that is seagrass plants. Dugong is an endangered marine biota and is protected by law in Indonesia under Government Regulation No. 7 of 1999. Internationally the status of dugong has been included in the World Red List by the International Union on Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as a "vulnerable animal against extinction ". Not only that, dugong is also included in Appendix I by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). Dugong's vulnerability is triggered by the level of dugong hunting for meat, bones and fangs, incident that dugong caught accidentally by fishermen (bycatch), degradation of habitat / destruction of dugong habitat (seagrass beds) and threat of uncontrolled dugong tourism / mass tourism / dugong tourism which is unmanageable. The low level of community understanding of dugong protection and the lack of national policy derivation on Dugong protection at the local level has been a major challenge in the management of Dugong in the SAP Straits of Alor District. 1 | P a g e In the Dugong and Seagrass Conservation Project (DSCP) conservation program conducted in Alor Regency, coastal communities are one of the foremost aspects that are encouraged to protect their coastal areas. DSCP through WWF-Indonesia with the Marine and Fisheries Agency of NTT Province, and the Marine and Fisheries of Alor Regency to strengthen Pokmaswas institutions and encourage the participation of villages and conservation community groups, seaweed farming and tourism groups to support the efforts. Several village-based community surveillance groups (POKMASWAS) have participated in conservation efforts such as Nature Loving POKMASWAS Pante Deere Village, Pokmaswas Sinar Kabola Kabola district and Pokmaswas Tanjung Muna Munaseli village. In view of Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 1 Year 2014 concerning Amendment to Law Number 27 Year 2007 on the Management of Coastal Areas and Small Islands (WP3K) and Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 45 Year 2009 on Amendment to Law Number 31 Year In 2004 on Fisheries, in an effort to improve governance aspects in the management of WP3K especially in the area of MPA SAP Pantar Strait and sustainable fisheries management it is necessary to improve the aspects of law enforcement and control on these two aspects. With the effective patrol system, supervision and law enforcement, it is expected that fisheries management and WP3K especially Aquatic Conservation Area can be done and can improve the welfare of coastal communities especially those in KKPD and surrounding areas. Patrol, Supervision, and law enforcement in WP3K as well as in fishery area is mandate given by Law to government in managing fishery and WP3K. In such efforts, participation, support and community involvement are very important. Based on PerMenKP no KEP. 58 / MEN / 2001 Concerning Procedures for Implementing Community Oversight System in Management and Utilization of Marine and Fishery Resources states that the Community Based Surveillance System (SISWASMAS) is a supervisory system involving the active role of the community in supervising and controlling the management and utilization of marine and fishery resources responsibly, in order to obtain benefits in a sustainable manner. The sustainable benefit is the utilization of fishery and marine resources in its management does not do the destruction or extinction of aquatic biota and pay attention to the existing ecosystems in marine waters. The Community Surveillance Group (POKMASWAS) is formed by a community initiative coordinated by a member

    Ultimate Indonesian Yachts 7-DAY / 6-NIGHT ITINERARY: MAUMERE TO ALOR Embark on a 7-day sailing sojourn in the mysterious Alor archipelago. This journey begins in Maumere and ends in Alor. ALOR ARCHIPELAGO The Alor archipelago is a series of rugged, volcanic islands stretching east of Bali, Sumbawa and Flores. It is perhaps most notable for its cultural diversity – the small archipelago is home to no less than 100 communities speaking 8 languages and 52 dialects. Dutch settlers fixed local rajas in the coastal areas after 1908, but were unable to penetrate the interior with its notorious fierce headhunters up until as late as the 1950s. This little-visited area remains known for its enduring indigenous animist traditions and the highland villages with their Moko drums. The many small villages in the vicinity are home to a welcoming and curious people, and visitors may also come across local spear fishermen sporting wooden framed goggles, setting traditional woven fish traps on the reefs. Among the islands surrounding Alor, deep channels make up part of the migratory route for many types of whales and the underwater landscape features breathtaking walls and coral gardens occupied by large schools of fish. These waters are notorious for powerful currents, particularly in the narrow straits between Pantar, Alor and Lembata, attracting predators from the deep. Off the Alor coast, Komba Island is home to the very active Batu Tara volcano, which billows smoke every half hour. www.ultimate-indonesian-yachts.com Ultimate Indonesian Yachts SAMPLE ITINERARY DAY 1: MAUMERE Upon arrival at the airport, you will be collected by your crew and transferred to your private yacht.

    ANNUAL REPORT Preface

    2017ANNUAL REPORT Preface Every passing year becomes our reflection to reach our vision for every child life in all its fullness. We always feel grateful when we listen to every story and see the changes in the children and communities whom we have supported through 62 child-focused programs. The involvement of many parties in the effort to promote the well-being of children becomes an encouragement for the sustainability of the assisting programs in the community which is run by Wahana Visi Indonesia (WVI). The alignment of our programs in the field with the programs that are run by the central and local government become our focus for the sustainability of our program in the long run. In 2017, one of WVI's agendas is to give priority to child protection, without setting aside programs in other sectors such as education, health and the family economy. WVI's commitment to protect children is portrayed through the launch of Ending Violence against Children (Penghapusan Kekerasan Terhadap Anak / PKTA) campaign which will run over the next 5 years, together with 20 other non-government organizations belonging to the PKTA Alliance. Thank you for every effort and collaboration that has been done throughout this year. We believe that every single thing that we have done for the children becomes hope to promote the well-being of the children. Let's go hand in hand for the Indonesian children.

  • Current Status of Language Documentation in the Alor-Pantar Archipelago

    Current Status of Language Documentation in the Alor-Pantar Archipelago

    Current Status of Language Documentation in the Alor-Pantar Archipelago František KRATOCHVÍL Nanyang Technological University, Singapore The last decade saw a surge in linguistic research in the Alor-Pantar Archipelago, a hitherto little explored area. We will first briefly sketch the research that preceded it. In the fist half of the 20th century, the most notable research was carried out by Cora Du Bois, an American anthropologist who studies extensively the Abui community of Central Alor. Du Bois was accompanied by Martha M. Nicolspeyer, a Dutch sociologist, who focused on the social structure of the Abui. Both researchers concluded that culture and society of the Alorese were distinct from the neighboring island (Nicolspeyer 1940, Du Bois 1944). In addition to the Holle lists, collected by the Dutch colonial administration, and published by W. A. L. Stokhof in 1975, it was established already before WWII that the languages and cultures found in the Alor-Pantar Archipelago are Papuan (non-Austronesian). With exception of the comprehensive memorie van overgave reports by Van Galen in 1946 (Hägerdal 2010, 2011) and a few travel reports (Anonymous 1914; Vatter 1932), virtually no other work was was done until 1970's when the Dutch linguists Willem A. L. Stokhof and Hein Steinhauer arrived in the Archipelago. While Steinhauer focussed on Blagar, spoken in Pura and Pantar, Stokhof worked on Woisika (nowadays known as Kamang), Abui, and Kabola (Steinhauer 1991, 1995; Stokhof 1975, 1977, 1979, 1982, 1984). In the late 1990's, Mark Donohue has studies the languages of East Alor, most notably Kula (referred to as Tanglapui) (Donohue 1997, 2008).

Results and discussions: Alor Regency have many tourist attractions with a good quality, safety, accessibility that give a positive impact for local community, but the local communities are still need the government rules to manage the area. The quantitative analysis result showed that internal and external factors both have a positive score, which means Alor Regency is at the 1 quadrant from SWOT Analysis chart and the qualitative showed various forms of development strategy that can be used according to the area needs.
  • Loss of Morphology in Alorese (Austronesian): Simplification in Adult Language Contact

    Loss of Morphology in Alorese (Austronesian): Simplification in Adult Language Contact

    journal of language contact 12 (2019) 378-403 brill.com/jlc Loss of Morphology in Alorese (Austronesian): Simplification in Adult Language Contact Francesca R. Moro Leiden University [email protected] Abstract This paper discusses historical and ongoing morphological simplification in Alorese, an Austronesian language spoken in eastern Indonesia. From comparative evidence, it is clear that Alorese lost almost all of its morphology over several hundred years as a consequence of language contact (Klamer, 2012, to appear). By providing both lin- guistic and cultural-historical evidence, this paper shows that Alorese has historically undergone morphological simplification as a result of second language (L2) learning. The first part of the paper presents a case study comparing the use of subject agree- ment prefixes in Alorese L1 speakers (n=6) and Alorese L2 speakers (n=12). The results show that L2 speakers deviate from the native norm, and tend to use one prefix as default agreement. The variation found among L2 speakers reveals an ongoing change possibly leading to the restructuring of the Alorese agreement system. The second part of the paper applies models of linguistic change (Kusters, 2003; Trudgill, 2011) to the Alorese community and shows that Alorese has been, and still is, spoken in a com- munity with a large number of L2 speakers, where morphological simplification is ex- pected to occur.

Juanda 9, Bogor, Indonesia 16122 Abstract Recent terrestrial vertebrate faunal surveys in Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, collected specimens of Pteropus lombocensis from islands from which the species had not previously been reported (Sumbawa, Lembata and Pantar), as well as from Lombok, Flores and Alor Islands. A univariate and multivariate statistical analysis of 28 morphological (skull dentary, dental and external) characters showed that adult P. /ombocensis was not sexually dimorphic, but that significant variation occurred, particularly in dental characters, between the island populations. Two subspecies are recognised in P. lombocensis. These are the western form, P././ombocensis Dobson, 1878 (Lombok and Sumbawa Islands), and the eastern form, P. l. heudei Matschie, 1899 (Flores, Lembata, Pantar and Alar).

These languages are surrounded by unrelated Austronesian languages, and attempts to locate related languages have focused on Papuan languages 800 km or more distant. In this paper we examine three hypotheses for genealogical relatedness, drawing on both pronominal and especially lexical evidence. We rely in particular on recent reconstructions of proto-Alor-Pantar vocabulary. Of the hypotheses evaluated here, we find the most striking similarities between TAP and the West Bomberai family.

The primary product of this research is an annotated corpus of audio and video recordings covering a range of genre and speech styles. All field data has been archived digitally following current best practice recommendations. Secondary products include a tri-lingual dictionary and a reference grammar. The use of aligned text and audio and the publication of a media corpus will ensure the future researchers have maximal access to original field data. The Pantar region remains one of the least documented linguistic areas in Indonesia, and almost no documentary information has previously been available for Western Pantar and many of the other non-Austronesian languages of Pantar. Through the use of best-practice language documentation techniques to create an enduring record of the language, the documentation produced by this project will broadly impact linguistic science, providing crucial typological data from a little-known part of the world’s linguistic landscape.

Dollu1*, Adriana Blegur1 1Study Program of Aquatic Resources Management, Faculty of Agriculture and Fisheries, Tribuana University, Kalabahi, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia Correponding authors: [email protected] Abstract Seagrass is the only flowering plant (Angiospermae) that has true rhizomes, leaves, and roots that live submerged in the sea. The purpose of this study was to determine the analysis of seagrass species diversity in Sikka Island waters, Kabola District, Alor Regency. Data retrieval of seagrass species diversity was carried out when the sea water receded with a water depth of 5-50 cm using the quadrant transect method at each observation station placed a line transect with the distance between the transects to the 25 m transect. Observation of seagrass cover conditions and seagrass density was carried out using a 1 mx 1 m quadrant transects. From the results of this study found 4 types of seagrass, namely Cymodocea rotundata, Enhalus acoroides, Halohila ovalis, Halodule pinifolia. All measured water quality parameters qualify for seagrass optimum growth. The diversity index (H ') type in Sikka Island waters is 0.228 categorized into small conditions, diversity index value (H') of all types of seagrasses on Sikka Island, namely Cymodocea rotundata at station I 0.0858, station II 0.0855, station III 0.0933, IV station 0.0851, at station V 0.0770, Enhalus acoroides at station I 0.02203, station II 0.1987, station III 0.1676, station IV 0.1810, at station V 0, 2256, Halophila ovalis at station I 0.3103, station II 0.2667, station III 0.3223, station IV 0.2522, at station V 0.3217, Halodule pinifolia at station I 0.4738, station II 0.4950 , station III 0.4871, at station IV 0.7460.
