The stagnant development of MSE clusters might be a priority concern of the government. It has been expected that such clusters need proper policies and regulations to well develop. In East Java, for instance, policies to improve inter-firm linkages within MSE cluster has been perceived as a vital effort to activate the dormant cluster. An effective inter-firm linkages will support the clustered MSEs to overcome their isolation problems so as to augment their productive capacity and enlarge output distribution. By taking the cluster of “Wisata Panci” in Pasuruan, East Java” as research object, this research revealed that inter-firm linkages are very beneficial for the advance development of the cluster. After suffering from financial crisis in 1998, the cluster succeeded to grow and develop to be active cluster.Methodologically, this research examined factors strengthening inter-firm linkages within the cluster by employing Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). In doing so, local government and cluster entrepreneurs were deeply interviewed to formulate policy choices related the strategies of inter-firm linkage improvement.The results of this research revealed that entrepreneurs within the cluster give more stressing on forward linkage improvement. Accordingly, horizontal linkage was ranked in second place. And finally, backward linkage was ranked in third place. This study concluded that both local government and entrepreneurs have same perception to more develop the cluster to be active MSEs cluster. It seems that forward linkage, especially consumptiom linkage, plays a vital role for this purpose as clustered MSEs commonly need an effective market channel to distribute their outputs widely. However, backward and horizontal linkages are also important as the linkages support further contribution to forward linkage and spur local business

Increase in demand for clean energy is one of the strategic issues in Indonesia nowadays, considering the significant economic growth of the country. A conventional LNG supply chain is not the best solution taking into consideration its high investment. The possibility of using a small scale LNG supply chain concept (Mini LNG) is recently sought by the government and private sectors in Indonesia. It is even more promising when we consider the amounts and number of stranded gas fields in the country. One of the main obstacles to the development plan is the geographical position of Indonesia as an archipelagic country. This paper presents a case study of LNG supply chain model of 10 mmscfd Gas Sales Agreement (GSA) in Batam and its design of LNG transportation model from Batam to Siantan-West Kalimantan [1]. The distance between Batam and Siantan is approximately 392 nautical miles. Two main objectives are covered in this paper. The first one is an implementation of the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to select the best location for mini LNG plant, and the second one is to design the LNG supply chain model based on optimization approach. The AHP model uses a pairwise comparison of 4 (four) qualitative attributes and 14 (fourteen) sub-attributes. 3 alternatives of location for mini LNG plant are evaluated, namely: Tanjung Uncang, Pemping Island and Janda Berhias Island. A sensitivity analysis by varying the weight of some critical attributes is also conducted to ensure that preferred location is sensitively selected with minimum error. The optimization of the LNG supply chain model is carried out by means of Gradually Reduced Gradient (GRG) methods. The Objective is to attain one design that will minimize investment (cost). Decision variables of the model are LNG plant capacity, storage tank capacity in loading and receiving terminal, vessel size, number of round trip, number of operating vessels, regasification capacity at the receiving terminal, and others.

Purpose of the study: This paper aims to elaborate on how the institutional logic of public housing provision transforms from the old logic into the new logic. By encapsulating tacit-knowledge from the shift, this study focuses on how to explicate a model of multi-criteria decision-making for executing official residence projects in Indonesia. This research also aims to recuperate the future of the public residency field. Methodology: The methodology employed was a mixed method. The qualitative method was firstly applied by utilizing semi-structured interviews to build a decision-making model. Later, a quantitative method was implemented to improve the consistency of the model by using the Analytical Hierarchy Process protocols. Thirteen project representatives and ten decision-makers were being involved as the main informants. Google Sheets web-based software was applied for analyzing survey results by making use of a mathematical model for the Analytical Hierarchy Process. Main Findings: The result indicates that land not used as paddy field, fair house price, safe from flood location, serene ambiance, and developer experience has played a significant part in affecting buying decisions for residency projects. To carry out the new method, the total scores of the AHP calculation should be above 50. Otherwise, the government shall opt for the old mechanism. Applications of this study: The paper contributes to the public sector accounting field in the area of asset management and public housing procurement. The paper also gives a strong basis for the field to make use of the model of Indonesia's public housing provision. The government can adopt the research framework for choosing the new model or the old one. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study might be the only one of its kind. The research was using a multi-method to achieve the objectives. To generate a multi-criteria decision-making model, grounded data of excessive interviews were abstracted. Then the abstracted tacit-knowledge was tested with AHP to provide a consistent model.

Pemerintah sampai saat ini belum memiliki daftar komoditi bahan pangan pokok (Bapok) yang konsisten. Terdapat perbedaan pandangan tentang komoditi Bapok antar lembaga pemerintah, misalnya Surat Keputusan Menteri Koordinator Bidang Perekonomian No. Kep28/M.EKON/05/2010 dan Renstra Kementerian Perdagangan 2010-2014 memasukkan komoditi Bapok yang berbeda. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mencari kriteria penentuan suatu komoditi untuk dikategorikan sebagai Bapok dan mengusulkan komoditi-komoditi potensial untuk Bapok dengan menggunakan metode Analytical Hierarchy Process. Hasil temuan menyimpulkan enam kriteria penentu komoditas sebagai Bapok yaitu pangsa pengeluaran komoditi dalam pengeluaran pangan rumah tangga; kontribusi kandungan komoditi terhadap karbohidrat; konsumsi terhadap protein; frekuensi konsumsi; kontribusi konsumsi komoditi terhadap vitamin dan mineral; serta pangsa produksi domestik terhadap konsumsi. Berdasarkan kriteria tersebut, calon Bapok yang diusulkan adalah beras, telur ayam ras, kedelai (tahu dan tempe), daging ayam ras, ikan kembung segar, ikan bandeng segar, gula pasir, susu, minyak goreng, dan terigu. The government still does not have consistent list of commodities that classified  as staple food. There is a difference view on the staple foods among government institutions. The Economic Coordinating Ministry’s decision letter No. Kep-28/M.EKON/05/2010 and The Ministry of Trade Strategic Plan 2010-2014 for example, listed diiferent kind of staple foods. The aim of this paper is to identify the criteria of commodity which can be classified as staple food  and to identify potential commodities that can be included as staple food by using Analytical Hierarchy Process. Six criteria of staple food are  expenditure share of food in household spending; contribution to carbohydrate; consumption of the protein; frequency of consumption; contribution to vitamins and minerals; as well as the share of domestic production to consumption. Based on these criterias, the candidates of proposed staple foods are rice, eggs, tofu and tempe, chicken meat, fresh mackerel, fresh milk, fish, sugar, milk, cooking oil, and wheat flour.
