Medan Merdeka Timur No. 5 Jakarta Pusat 10110 email: [email protected] Diterima: 11 November 2014, Revisi 1: 1 Desember 2014, Revisi 2: 10 Desember 2014, Disetujui: 19 Desember 2014 ABSTRACT Jakarta MRT system had been planned since the 1980’s. Many constraints such as political, finan- cial, as well as bureaucratic make the project delayed for a long time. When the plan scheduled to be implemented in a couple years ago, some protests arise. Communities and some interest group against. The fears of income decline and loss of livelihood become their main concerns which in- duce protests before the project really started. Based on this experience, this paper tries to reveal social impacts of transport development in case MRT Jakarta. Now the project construction is being carried out. Social impact as well as the project construction continues. This study investigate how social impact of railway project was happened. Literatures and documents analysis was used to analyze this study. The result of the study were the MRT Jakarta project inevitably have negative and positive impacts both for society and environment. But with the start of the project after a long delay, it gives hope to the community for better transportation. It is a positive impact before the project was completed. Community engagement in a meeting or discusssion should more be em- phasized in the process in order to minimize the conflicts of interest.

  • Iran 2019 Human Rights Report
    IRAN 2019 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Islamic Republic of Iran is an authoritarian theocratic republic with a Shia Islamic political system based on velayat-e faqih (guardianship of the jurist). Shia clergy, most notably the rahbar (supreme leader), and political leaders vetted by the clergy dominate key power structures. The supreme leader is the head of state. The members of the Assembly of Experts are nominally directly elected in popular elections. The assembly selects and may dismiss the supreme leader. The candidates for the Assembly of Experts, however, are vetted by the Guardian Council (see below) and are therefore selected indirectly by the supreme leader himself. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has held the position since 1989. He has direct or indirect control over the legislative and executive branches of government through unelected councils under his authority. The supreme leader holds constitutional authority over the judiciary, government-run media, and other key institutions. While mechanisms for popular election exist for the president, who is head of government, and for the Islamic Consultative Assembly (parliament or majles), the unelected Guardian Council vets candidates, routinely disqualifying them based on political or other considerations, and controls the election process. The supreme leader appoints half of the 12-member Guardian Council, while the head of the judiciary (who is appointed by the supreme leader) appoints the other half. Parliamentary elections held in 2016 and presidential elections held in 2017 were not considered free and fair. The supreme leader holds ultimate authority over all security agencies. Several agencies share responsibility for law enforcement and maintaining order, including the Ministry of Intelligence and Security and law enforcement forces under the Interior Ministry, which report to the president, and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which reports directly to the supreme leader.

  • Tehran Metro
    © 2019 Dr. M. Montazeri. All Rights Reserved. TEHRAN METRO HISTORY Tehran, as the capital of Islamic Republic of Iran, is the first Iranian city in terms of economic, cultural and social as well as political centralization. This eight- million people city that its population with satellite towns reaches to twelve million inhabitants faces the traffic crisis and its consequences such as fuel consumption, noise pollution, wasting time and accidents. Undoubtedly, construction of an efficient and high-capacity transportation system will be the main solution to overcoming this crisis. Today, urban rail transportation has become increasingly apparent in its role as a massive, safe, fast, inexpensive and convenient public transport network to reduce vehicle congestion, environment pollution, fuel consumption and promoting the quality of social life. In the first comprehensive urban plan conducted in 1958, a railway transportation discussion was observed for the city of Tehran. In 1971, the study of urban transport situation was assigned to Sufreto French Company by the municipality of Tehran. This institute presented a comprehensive report titled “Tehran Transportation & Traffic Plan” based on information, collected statistics and related forecasts for the development and growth of Tehran in 1974. A "Metro-Street" system was proposed in this comprehensive plan, based on the construction of seven subway lines with the length of 147 km, completed by developing an above-ground network toward suburb, a full bus network as a complementary for metro, a number of Park&Ride facilities around the metro stations and finally a highway belt network. Due to this, a legal bill regarding the establishment of urban and suburban railway company was submitted to the parliament by the government in April 1975, which was approved by the National Assembly and the Senate, in which the municipality of Tehran was authorized to establish a company called Tehran Urban & Suburban Railway Co.

We have known that level of user satisfaction is relatively depend on the whole situation of trip service variables in the city. The two main attributes that be user’s consideration as the measurement of transit service is travel time and waiting time of transit user. Those time are influenced by the characteristic of the user and the purpose of the user trip. So that is very important to know the time value of both travel time and waiting time of transit user. The time value must depend on various of trip purpose and user characteristic. The stated pereference survey method is applied on the quesionaire to get the data of user preference. Those time value will be differentiate by the trip purpose and the kind of transit (public transportation) service like Bus, Metromini/ Kopaja (Medium Bus) and Mikrolet (Micro Bus). Key Words : Waiting time, travel time, fare, time value 1. BACKGROUND Public transportation or Transit in Jakarta reached 140,000 vehicles and serving 53 routes, which inappropriate vehicle condition or vehicle’ages is more than 12 years.
