The research concerned here was to know the economic rationality of residents who dwelled again in their former village after the eruption of Mount Merapi in 2010 and refused to be relocated by the government. A combined research method, namely, a combination between a qualitative method and a quantitative one, was used to uncover the rationality. The qualitative part of the research was conducted first by deciding informants considered knowledgeable about the matter under research. Then the informants were interviewed in turns decided via snowball sampling. Some secondary data were used to support the qualitative research. As for the quantitative part of the research, it was conducted afterwards by turning members of the households in the village into respondents. The finding of the research is as follows. The residents perceive the disaster not only as a dangerous natural phenomenon but also as an economic blessing because tourists visits to the areas suffering from the impact of the disaster enable residents to have activities that have economic value. That economic rationality was what motivated them to return to their village though its condition is categorized by the government as unfit for dwelling.

ABSTRACTThis research is about the Implementation of Village Ministerial Regulation, PDTT Number 21 of 2015 in the utilization of Village Funds for Community Empowerment in Embacang Kelekar Village and Suban Baru Village Kelekar District of Muara Enim Regency in 2016. The research aims to find out the implementation of Village Ministerial Regulation, PDTT Number 21 of 2015 in utilizing village funds for community empowerment in Embacang Kelekar Village and Suban Baru Village Kelekar District Muara Enim Regency in 2016 and what factors are the obstacles to the success of the Implementation of the Village Minister Regulation, PDTT No. 21 2015 in Utilizing Village Funds for Community Empowerment in both villages. This study uses qualitative research methods with a descriptive approach. The data used are primary data and secondary data. The results of this study, in terms of the many developing programs, of course the government of Embacang Kelekar Village is better than Suban Baru Village because in Embacang Kelekar Village out of 8 groups of goat management only 2 groups failed and 6 other groups succeeded. Whereas in Suban Baru Village, out of 3 programs, only 1 group developed and the rest failed. This indicates that the impact in Embacang Kelekar Village is better than in Suban Baru Village. However, as a whole, when viewed from compliance and smooth routines, functions such as supervision are still not good in both villages. Therefore, when referring to the theory that is used as a reference, namely Ripley and Franklin's Theory, which states that even though the level of compliance is high, routine functions can be carried out smoothly, policy implementation can have a positive impact. However, if one of the three dimensions is flawed, the implementation of the policy is said to have yet to succeed. So the conclusion that can be drawn is the implementation of the Minister of Village Regulation, PDTT No. 21 of 2015 in the utilization of village funds for community empowerment in the Village of Embacang Kelekar and Suban Baru Village Kelekar District of Muara Enim Regency in 2016 can still be said to be unsuccessful.

The Government has enacted Law Number 6/2014 concerning Villages. One policy included in that Law is the provision of Village Funds (Dana Desa) in which its implementation can be investigated based on non-economic aspects. For this reason, this study aims to analyze the impact of non-economic factors on Village Funds disbursed in 29 districts in Central Java Province. These factors include population and the Human Development Index (HDI). While using secondary data from 2015-2017, this research employs a method using panel data with the best model known as the Fixed Effects Model (FEM). The FEM estimation results show that the population has a significant impact, while HDI's impact is not significant. Besides, the ratio between Village Funds and the population has a significant impact on Village Funds. Thus, both the Central and the Regional Government, as well as the Village Heads, should consider the population in allocating Village Funds. The contribution of this study is that the Government should formulate an appropriate policy for Village Funds allocation by considering non-economic factors in each village.JEL Classification: O10, O23, E62How to Cite:Ratwianingsih, L., Cahyadin, M., & Sutomo.

Development of village fund management is very much needed by the community so that it can be enjoyed by all levels of society in the villages. The seriousness of the government in developing villages is evidenced by the start of allocation of the Village Fund budget for 2015. The allocation of the Village Fund is mandated by Law (Law) Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages and Government Regulation (PP) Number 6 of 2014 concerning Village Funds Sourced from STATE BUDGET. The regulation explained that the administration of the village government adheres to the principle of decentralization and the task of assistance. The principle of decentralization raises village internal funding (Desa APBD), while the principle of co-administration provides an opportunity for Villages to obtain funding sources from the government above it (APBN, Provincial APBD, Regency / City APBD). This study aims to observe what the development of village funds looks like, how they are implemented and the impact of the use of village funds in supporting development activities and community empowerment. The research method used is a qualitative research method that relies on observing places, actors and activities in Konawe Selatan Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province, which was chosen as a case study. Initial observations show that the Village Fund does not have significant results in improving the welfare of the community. These indications are evident in the welfare of the community which has not improved with the existence of the village fund. Therefore it is necessary to develop a good management of village funds to improve the welfare of rural communities, especially in Konawe Selatan District. The output to be achieved is the scientific publication with ISSN Online and the level of technological Readiness that will be achieved 1-3.

Abstract This paper reviews rice procurement operations of Government of India from the standpoints of cost of procurement as well as effectiveness in supporting farmers’ incomes. The two channels in use for procuring rice till 2015, were custom milling of rice and levy. In the first, the government bought paddy directly from farmers at the minimum support price (MSP) and got it milled from private millers; while in the second, it purchased rice from private millers at a pre-announced levy price thus providing indirect price support to farmers. Secondary data reveal that levy, despite implying lower cost of procurement was discriminated against till about a decade back and eventually abolished in 2015 in favor of custom milling, better trusted to provide minimum price support. We analyze data from auctions of paddy from a year when levy was still important to investigate its impact on farmers’ revenues. We use semi-nonparametric estimates of millers’ values to simulate farmers’ expected revenues and find these to be rather close to the MSP; a closer analysis shows that bidder competition is critical to this result. Finally, we use our estimates to quantify the impact of change in levy price on farmers’ revenues and use this to discuss ways to revive the levy channel.

Background: Low public awareness of the impact of smoking makes the implementation of smoke-free areas (KTR) difficult. Smoke-free areas aim to protect the public from the direct and indirect effects of smoking. Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the correlation between the application of smoke-free areas and the prevalence of active and ex-smokers in Indonesia. Method: This study implemented a cross-sectional design, using secondary data from the Riskesdas 2018 on active and ex-smokers. KTR application data were obtained from the Profile of Non-Communicable Diseases in 2016. A Pearson product-moment test was conducted by a computer application to determine the correlation coefficient (r). This coefficient was used to describe the level of correlation between the two variables; significance was determined as a p value of 5%. Results: This study showed that the average application of KTR throughout Indonesia was 50.83%, active smokers comprised 23.49% of the population, and ex-smokers comprised 4.94%. Most active smokers were in Java and Sumatra, while the majority of ex-smokers were in Java and Sulawesi and the majority of KTR was in Java. This study shows that there is a positive correlation between KTR application and the percentage of ex-smokers (r = 0.46; p value = 0.01). Conclusion: There is a positive correlation between the application of KTR and an increase in ex-smokers. The government needs to increase the application of KTR policies.
