  • Net1 Indonesia Ready to Support Implementation of Broadband Internet in Rural Area
    Press Release ILC FORUM 2018 “INDONESIA TOWARD DIGITAL PARADISE” Net1 Indonesia Ready to Support Implementation of Broadband Internet in Rural Area Jakarta, 24 May 2018 – Net1 Indonesia is ready to support the government in accelerating the provision of internet connections in rural areas, especially in frontier, outermost and least (3T) developed regions of the country. Net1 Indonesia's mission to spread the internet access in the rural area is in line with the government nine agenda priorities or often referred to Nawa Cita, which mentions developing Indonesia’s rural area within the framework of Republic of Indonesia. One of the pillars of those points is realizing the availability of telecommunication infrastructure and network connectivity in the regions. Currently, the Government, through the Ministry of Communications and Informatics, is spurring the availability of internet network for rural areas. According to data from the ministry, currently 73% of villages/sub-lower districts already have internet connection based on 3G technology. Meanwhile, the LTE 4G network only 55%. By 2019, the government is targeting to provide 3G-based internet for more than 83,000 villages. Another target for the upcoming year is covering total of 514 districts/cities by 4G LTE network. So far, only 64% of them have access to 4G LTE. "The advantage of Net1 4G LTE network is running at 450 Mhz frequency, which is perfect for rural area geographic character, with large area but low density. The characteristic of low-frequency is not pursuing the access speed, but covering the larger area," said Larry Ridwan, CEO of Net1 Indonesia, in a discussion forum on Universal Service Obligation (USO), held by Indonesia LTE Community (ILC), at Balai Kartini Exhibition and Convention Center, Jakarta (24/05).

Kairupan1,* and Conny Manoppo1 1North Sulawesi Assessment Institute of Agricultural Technology, Kalasey-Manado Agricultural Campus Abstract. Various potentials and challenges in agricultural development in the border region are expected to managed and overcome properly. The participation of all parties, is needed to support this sector. The purpose of study was to determine the basic food crop agricultural commodities that have fast growth and competitiveness in the border region of North Sulawesi. This study uses analytical methods with secondary data. The data analysis determined changes in the structure or performance of the regional economy against higher economic structures (provincial or national) is the location quotient analysis (LQ). To determine the performance or productivity of the work of the local economy by comparing it with the larger using Shift Share Analysis (SSA). The results showed that the most superior commodity and the base in the Sangihe Islands Regency was sweet potato with the LQ value of 12.64, cassava 9.1 and peanut 2.96. The results of the Shift Share analysis show that the six agricultural commodities of food crops (lowland rice, dry rice, cassava, sweet potato, peanuts) have not been able to growth in the food crop agriculture sector because it has slow growth. 1 Introduction Border area development is essentially an integral part of national development. Border areas have a strategic value in supporting the success of national development, this are indicated by the characteristics of the activity that is, it has an important impact on the sovereignty of the State and is a driving factor for improving the socio-economic well- being of the surrounding community.

  • Integrating Multi-Hazard Risk Analysis Into Spatial Planning for Small Island: Study Case of Sangihe Island

Grafika Utara no 2, Sekip Yogyakarta, Indonesia 3Department of Geodetic Engineering, Gadjah Mada University, Jl. Grafika Utara no 2, Sekip Yogyakarta, Indonesia *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract. Small island regions are facing disaster risks due to its exposure to various hazards, e.g. floods, landslide and earthquake. In order to achieve long-term disaster resilience, one of the significant strategies is applying spatial planning based on disaster risk reduction. Methods for multi-hazard risk assessment and risk analysis have been broadly discussed, nevertheless its implementation in spatial planning is inadequate. In this study, we conducted a multi-hazard risk mapping of Sangihe Island and reviewed its spatial plan. It is identified disaster risk analysis hardly meets its standard in consequence of insufficient secondary data availability. Also, the spatial plan merely utilises hazard maps for consideration, not yet risk analysis, resulting in allocating vital elements in high risk areas. Hence, secondary data support is necessary in accordance with the needs of standardized risk analysis and is updated regularly. Furthermore, integration of risk analysis into spatial planning is required in order to determine the direction of development, which not only reduces exposure to hazards, but emphasizes more towards capacity building to reduce vulnerability.

  • Ocean Drilling Program Scientific Results Volume
    Silver, E. A., Rangin, C, von Breymann, M. T., et al., 1991 Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program, Scientific Results, Vol. 124 23. GEOCHEMISTRY AND ISOTOPIC DATING OF CENOZOIC VOLCANIC ARC SEQUENCES AROUND THE CELEBES AND SULU SEAS1 H. Bellon2 and C. Rangin3 ABSTRACT Geochemical data and whole-rock ^K-^Ar isotopic ages are presented for more than 50 igneous rocks (a majority of lavas and some plutonic bodies) sampled onshore (Philippine Archipelago: Tablas, Panay, Masbate, Mindanao, northern Borneo (Sabah), and north Sulawesi) around the Celebes and Sulu Seas. These data are compared with the ^K-^Ar ages obtained on drilled lavas along the Cagayan Ridge at ODP Sites 769 and 771 and with the major pyroclastic and tephras events recorded in the basins. Onshore ages range from 32 Ma to near 0 Ma for these rocks of generally calc-alkaline affinity with some shoshonitic high-K basalts. On the basis of geological data and kinematic reconstructions, two types of island arcs can be differentiated: those related to the progressive closing of the Celebes and Sulu marginal basins and those belonging to the Philippine Sea Plate. The combined age and chemistry for these two magmatic belts allow us to decipher the Neogene evolution of the complex zone of interaction of the Eurasian, Philippine Sea, and Australian plates. INTRODUCTION The Cagayan Ridge can be traced to Panay Island and probably also to Tablas. The Sulu Ridge extends to Sabah and The Celebes and Sulu Seas marginal basins lie southeast of the Zamboanga Peninsula. the South China Sea within the complex zone of junction of The north arm of Sulawesi is also the site of still-active Philippine Sea, Indian, and Pacific plates.

  • Northern Islands Mission
    Image not found or type unknown Northern Islands Mission BRUSSY SORITON Brussy Soriton started his pastoral ministry in Jakarta in 2003 after he graduated from Universitas Klabat (UNKLAB). He is an ordained pastor. He earned his Master’s degree from Universitas Advent Indonesia (UNAI) in 2017. His wife Annie Bulangbae works as a nurse in Public Hospital on Siau island. They have two children. At the time of writing, he was the district pastor of Siau island, North Celebes. Territory and Statistics Northern Island Mission (formerly Sangihe Talaud Mission) comprises islands scattered between the northern tip of Celebes in Indonesia and the southern tip of Mindanao in the Philippines with a total land of area 763.5 square miles. The service area of the mission includes three regencies: Sitaro, Sangihe, and Talaud. According to the official census held in 2018, the population in this territory is 370,158. In May 2019, there were 61 organized churches and 1 company in this mission with a total membership of 3,347. Origin of Adventist Work in the Territory of Northern Island Mission At first, the Northern Island Mission region, along with the rest of the country of Indonesia, was under the Dutch colony. In 1920-1964, the Adventist work in the region was under the supervision of the Far Eastern Division (now Southern Asia-Pacific Division).1 The work of literature evangelists and Bible teachers played a very significant role for the Adventist message in the region. Many residents in Sangihe and Tagulandang islands learned about the Sabbath truth from them through house to house visits, Bible studies, and Adventist literature.2 On March 27, 1926, Pastor Albert Munson baptized Alex Lengkoan and his wife, Marie Lumabaeng at Kakas, as the first fruits from Sangihe Islands.3 After they were baptized Lengkoan and his wife returned to their village, Salurang, on Sangihe Island and worked as literature evangelists.
