Natural disasters that occur in the city of Dumai such as degradation of mangrove forests, coastal abrasion and tidal flooding can be mitigated by maintaining the existence of mangrove forests. Mangrove forests have important benefits on the coast of the city of Dumai, so they need to be protected together. One of the efforts to maintain the existence of mangroves can be through the use of mitigation-based mangrove ecotourism, especially in the Bandar Bakau area of Dumai City. The data collection technique in this study used a quadratic transect and added secondary data from the relevant agencies. Based on the results of the study found 9 types of mangroves that have a role as mitigation in ecotourism locations and there are biota supporting tourism, namely 13 species of birds, 7 species of reptiles and 16 species of molluscs. To maintain the sustainability of the ecotourism area of Bandar Bakau, several disaster mitigations have been carried out for retaining cliffs (revetment), reforestation of mangroves, construction of facilities that adapt to the environment, coastal education, and outreach to the community. In addition, it is very potential to develop several other forms of mitigation such as: beach nourishment, breakwater or construction of embankments to minimize abrasion, as well as construction of diversion canals and tidal flood control gates, strengthening regulations. legislation, making land use policies, policies on flood and wave resistant building standards, policies on exploration and community economic activities, promoting local cultural wisdom of maritime communities.

Infrastructure systems—sometimes referred to as critical infrastructure or lifelines—provide services such as energy, water, sanitation, transportation, and communications that are essential for social and economic activities. Moreover, these systems typically serve large populations and comprise geographically extensive networks. They are also highly interdependent, so outages in one system such as electric power or telecommunications often affect other systems. As a consequence, when infrastructure systems are damaged in disasters, the ensuing losses are often substantial and disproportionately large. Collapse of a single major bridge, for example, can disrupt traffic flows over a broad region and impede emergency response, evacuation, commuting, freight movement, and economic recovery. Power outages in storms and other hazard events can affect millions of people, shut down businesses, and even cause fatalities. Infrastructure outages typically last from hours to weeks but can extend for months or even years. Minimizing disruptions to infrastructure services is thus key to enhancing communities’ disaster resilience. Research on infrastructure systems in natural hazards has been growing, especially as major disasters provide new data, insights, and urgency to the problem. Engineering advances have been made in understanding how hazard stresses may damage the physical components of infrastructure systems such as pipes and bridges, as well as how these elements can be designed to better withstand hazards. Modeling studies have assessed how physical damage disrupts the provision of services—for example, by indicating which neighborhoods in an urban area may be without potable water—and how disruption can be reduced through engineering and planning. The topic of infrastructure interdependencies has commanded substantial research interest. Alongside these developments, social science and interdisciplinary research has also been growing on the important topic of how infrastructure disruption in disasters has affected populations and economies. Insights into these impacts derive from a variety of information sources, including surveys, field observations, analysis of secondary data, and computational models. Such research has established the criticality of electric power and water services, for example, and the heightened vulnerability of certain population groups to infrastructure disruption. Omitting the socioeconomic impacts of infrastructure disruptions can lead to underinvestment in disaster mitigation. While the importance of understanding and reducing infrastructure disruption impacts is well-established, many important research gaps remain.

The study investigates stakeholders’ perception of the triggering mechanisms and determinants of flooding episodes in Limbe. Primary data were collected using questionnaires administered in ten (10) study sites. Interviews were conducted, field observation and measurement carried out on the drain sizes, height and duration of flooding. Secondary data were obtained from text books and journals. Data were analysed using qualitative and quantitative methods. Findings revealed that a plethora of triggering mechanisms of flooding were identified and analysed under natural and anthropogenic factors. However, of all these factors, prolonged rainfall and the inadequacy and narrowness of drains were perceived to be the most important triggering mechanisms of flooding in Limbe. The study concluded that flooding is a hazard that has been plaguing the city of Limbe for close to two decades and therefore needs appropriate flood control strategies to be employed to effectively control flooding since it cannot be completely stopped in some parts of Limbe. Since the inadequacy / narrowness of drains was perceived as the most important triggering mechanism of flooding in Limbe, it was recommended that wide drains be constructed in all the flood prone and flood affected areas in the city of Limbe.

Undang-undang Nomor 28 tahun 2009 tentang Pajak Daerah dan Retribusi Daerah (UU PDRD) dilahirkan agar kemandirian daerah meningkat. Kemandirian daerah dicerminkan oleh besarnya kontribusi Pendapatan Asli Daerah (PAD) terhadap Anggaran Pendapatan danBelanja Daerah (APBD), sementara pajak daerah merupakan kompunen penting dalam PAD. Penelitian ini menganalisis penerimaan pajak daerah kota/kabupaten se-Indonesia dan kontribusinya terhadap PAD, setelah berlakunya UU PDRD. Penelitian menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif, dengan data sekunder berupa data penerimaan pajak kota/kabupaten se-Indonesia tahun 2010-2017 diperoleh dari laman Direktorat Jenderal Perimbangan Keuangan, dan data primer berupa hasil wawancara terhadap pejabat pemerintah daerah, dan kuisioner kepada petugas pajak daerah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan: 1)perkembangan penerimaan pajak daerah kabupaten lebih kecil daripada kota; 2) perkembangan kontribusi pajak daerah terhadap PAD di kabupaten lebih kecil daripada di kota; 3) perkembangan APBD Kabupaten lebih besar daripada APBD Kota. Perkembanganpajak daerah kabupaten yang lebih kecil daripada kota disebabkan antara lain karena objek pajak pada UU PDRD lebih berorientasi pada kegiatan ekonomi perkotaan, dan aturan-aturan yang multi tafsir ataupun yang kurang mendukung. Disarankan agar dapat dipungut jenispajak lain yang sesuai bagi wilayah kabupaten yakni yang berbasis kegiatan ekonomi desa, misal wisata desa, dan aturan-aturan yang lebih mendukung. Law Number 28 of 2009 concerning Regional Taxes and Regional Levies (UU PDRD) was born in order to increase regional independence. Regional independence is reflected by the amount of the contribution of the Regional Own Revenue (PAD) to the Regional Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBD), while local taxes are an important component in the PAD. This study analyzes the tax revenue of cities/regencies throughout Indonesia and its contribution to PAD, after the enactment of the PDRD Law. This study using descriptive qualitative methods, with secondary data in the form of city/regency tax revenue in Indonesia in 2010-2017 obtained from the Directorate General of Fiscal Balance page, and primary data in the form of interviews with local government officials, and questionnaires to local tax officials. The results are: 1) the development of district tax revenue is smaller than the city; 2) the development of the contribution of local taxes on PAD in the district is smaller than in the city; 3) the development of Regency APBD is greater than the City APBD. The development of district tax that is smaller than the city is partly cause of the tax object in the PDRD Law is more oriented to urban economic activities, and rules that are multi-interpreted or less supportive. It’s recommended that other types of taxes be collected that are suitable for the regency, namely those based on village economic activities, eg village tourism, and more supportive rules, and more supportive rules.
