Sustainable tourism development has been considered as a major factor in maintaining the environmental integrity, as well as social and economic equality of a region’s tourist attractions. This study uses qualitative research, where the data collection was carried out by observation, documentation and interviews with the stakeholders of tourism in the regency, in particular the local Cultural and Tourism Office. Moreover, in this research, the potentials of the Sangihe Islands Regency were identified and categorized into three, namely Cultural, Natural and Maritime, and Nature Reserve tourism potentials. The local government’s policies to improve and develop its sustainable tourism are then divided into four main aspects, which are the development of tourist destinations, tourism marketing, tourism industry, and tourism institutions. Lastly, the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats are identified in order to develop strategies that would support and improve the development of sustainable tourism in Sangihe Islands Regency.

  • Crude Extracts of Kappaphycus Alvarezii Algae Cultivated in Several Seaweed Production Centers in North Sulawesi, Indonesia As Immunostimulant Reni L
    Crude extracts of Kappaphycus alvarezii algae cultivated in several seaweed production centers in North Sulawesi, Indonesia as immunostimulant Reni L. Kreckhoff, Edwin L. A. Ngangi, Suzanne L. Undap, Diane J. Kusen Study Program of Aquaculture, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Science, Sam Ratulangi University, Manado, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Corresponding author: R. L. Kreckhoff, [email protected] Abstract. The use of natural ingredients as immunostimulants to improve fish immunity continues to develop. This study is to determine the quality of Kappaphycus alvarezii extract from 3 cultivation locations in North Sulawesi and to compare the amount of carrageenan between non-ATC and ATC products in the form of SRC (Semi Refined Carrageenan). As immunostimulant, antioxidant activity was tested to measure IC50 of antioxidant activity. Results showed that there were differences in the quality of K. alvarezii extracts among 3 research locations. The highest carrageenan content was found Likupang NSMEC, 63.80% for non-ATC seaweed and 64.43% for the SRC, respectively. The percent of carrageenan content from Arakan Village was the lowest, 44.43% for non-ATC and 52.55% for SRC, respectively, while Talengen Bay had 46.14% for non-ATC and 57.16% for SRC. Alkaline treatment (SRC) can increase the percent of carrageenan. K. alvarezii extract is known to have bioactive ingredients as immunostimulants. The best antioxidant activity was recorded in the extract from Arakan -1 -1 Village with IC50 value of 22.04 µg mL , followed by Talengen Bay, 27.6 µg mL , and NSMEC, 28.45 µg -1 -1 mL , respectively. The IC50 value is very strong because it is <50µg mL .

  • 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.

Butterflies have an important role in the ecosystem of Sangihe Island, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Currently, data on the diversity of butterflies on the island are still lacking and have not been published yet. Therefore, this study was aimed to analyze the structure of the butterfly community and its diversity in Sangihe Island, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. The research was conducted from March 2018 to May 2018 in Sangihe Island, North Sulawesi. Sampling was performed at three types of habitat: a farm, a forest edge, and bushes. Sampling method used was surveyed with purposive sampling. A collection of butterflies was gathered by the sweeping method using sweep net following the transect line randomly for 500 m long. At each habitat, four transects were set and the collection step was duplicated. Sampling was performed from 8.00 am to 15.00 pm. The collection comprised of 5 families, 39 species, and 944 individuals. The most commonly found family was Nymphalidae, while the most abundant species were Junonia hedonia intermedia and Eurema tominia.

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.
