Aims and Objectives: The objective of this study is to compare and explain the process and time-cost of passenger transportation by an international bus crossing three border gates between Laos and Vietnam, which are the (1) Nam Phao-Cau Treo (2) Na Phao – Cha Lo and (3) Dansavanh – Lao Bao border gates. Methods: The target groups of the research selected by purposive sampling are land passenger transportation service companies and land transport passengers, who, through interviews and observations, are the Key Informants (KIs). Results: The results reveal that (1) there are many routes and bus companies that provide local and international passenger services. The main group of passengers is Vietnamese crossing into Laos and linking to Thailand. (2) The international bus service across the Cha Lo-Na Pao border gates is shorter than the other pair border gates (3) The information system for transportation is inefficient (4) The single window system policy at Dansavanh – Lao Bao border gates can reduce the immigration checkpoint process by about 30 - 60 minutes. Conclusion: Therefore, the governments of Laos, Vietnam and Thailand should focus on intergrating transportation policy, such as employing one bus from Vietnam to Thailand per day starting in Vietnam and traveling to Thailand, crossing at the Na Phao-Cha Lo border gates and reducing the time at the immigration checkpoint in order to enhance and support economic cooperation in this region.

Korea’s shared mobility service, TADA, has been accused of violating the Passenger Transportation Services Act, despite being an innovative transportation service. A key reason for this is that TADA is yet to discover an approach to coexist with traditional transportation service companies. The TADA case shows that in addition to technical or business matters, a variety of issues can act as new barriers to the spread of innovation. Therefore, this study aims to understand the emerging barriers that need to be addressed in adopting breakthrough technologies, particularly for shared mobility services. The purpose of this study is to show that the introduction of innovative technology encounters not only technological barriers, as suggested in previous research, but also political, industrial, and legal barriers to diffusion that hinder innovation. Therefore, this study applied the text mining method to online news big data to confirm the existence of diffusion barriers for shared mobility services. The results demonstrate that not only technical efforts but also discussions with various stakeholders and efforts to minimize industrial and legal resistance are required to effectively spread innovative services.

Poverty is one continuing social issue which is hard to solve. Dealing with this problem, Islam has already had the alternative solution that is tithe (Zakat). Zakat is implemented to decrease economy imbalanced appeared in the society. While in fact, not all the Moslem pay Zakat. There are five factors as the reason why Moslem didn’t do that. First, some Muzakki wants to deliver his zakat directly.Seconde, not all Muzakki know how much Zakat must be paid. The other factors are Limited information about Mustahik home, limited time that Muzakki have to deliver his Zakat directly and the easiness to report Mustahik data. Dealing with those factors, it is required to have an information system which can make Muzakki meets Mustahik. In this research, information system application used Extreme Programming (XP) development method. XP method is required to program a system which will be made by accomodating the users’ needs and expectations.

Abstract In the literature, the information structure of the hold-up problem is typically assumed to be exogenous. In this paper, we introduce an additional stage at which the head office may grant individual divisions access to an information system before they undertake their specific investments. Although more information ceteris paribus enhances each divisions’ profits, more information can reduce divisions’ investments and destroy synergies for the other division that would have been generated by the investments. If this negative effect dominates, then information can be harmful for the entire company. Hence, information control can be a subtle force to deal with the hold-up problem to a certain extent. In this paper we analyze those conditions under which information is either harmful or beneficial for central management.

<p>The Sea Beach Cahaya is one of the rising beach attractions in Kendal Regency, Central Java. In general, the tourism object of The Sea Pantai Cahaya still does not use many computer systems in their daily lives. As with tourism ticket purchases and also entrance tickets, vehicles that still use ticket paper as proof of payment, it is often disrupted if it is still fussing with the queue conditions and questions by visitors. On the other hand, report data collection is still considered slow.</p><p>One way to overcome the above problems is to make a ticket payment system that is computerized using the SAW (Simple Additive Weighting) method, replace paper tickets with a card model and also use the network to shorten report generation.</p>

The objective of this research was to analyse the relationship between sociodemographic characteristics and the travel behaviour of Trinidadians. Many studies have shown that a relationship exists between the socio-economic and sociodemographic characteristics of an individual and their travel patterns. A better understanding of this relationship can influence transportation policy decisions and therefore, aid in improvement to the overall transportation structure. This understanding of travel behaviour is of particular importance in developing countries and SIDS, where there is limited geographical space, economic constraints and an influx of competitive unregulated paratransit modes into the transportation system. Trinidad, like other developing countries and SIDS, has a public transportation system that is dominated by paratransit modes. More notably, there is increasing penetration of illegally operated paratransit modes, that are aggressively competing in the market and gaining a lot of traction. Data was collected in January 2018 using a revealed preference survey of commuters’ work-based tours in, Trincity, a middle-income housing area with good highway and public transportation access. Results showed that income, age, distance from workplace and gender all affect the likelihood of public transport usage as a primary mode of a work tour and there were gender-based differences in the incidence of walking as part of the tour. Additionally, although most public transportation users considered the government bus service as the safest and illegal paratransit services as the least safe, the usage of such services was more than five times that of the bus. The research points to important service and policy actions which need to be taken to encourage and support shifts to more sustainable modes.

The problem discussed in this study is designing a system that can be used as an ASI bank. The Posyandu in Bantarsoka Village is very concerned about the importance of breastfeeding for babies. A lot of babies who are not breast fed are a concern. On the other hand, many breastfeeding mothers also have excess breast milk. The absence of a system that accommodates information about ASI at the Posyandu in Bantarsoka Village makes the Posyandu less optimal in helping its residents overcome the problem of breastfeeding distribution. With current technological developments, the idea emerged to create an information system for ASI management, which later could be a solution to the problems. The ASI Bank Management System aims to provide a forum for mothers who have been excess breast fed to be able to donate their breast milk to babies who do not get their mother's milk intake. This study uses the Waterfall method which is carried out with a structured approach, starting from the system requirement's stages, analysis, design, coding, testing, and maintenance. The result of this research is an information system in the form on the ASI Bank website. With this system, it is hoped that it can help with the problem of breastfeeding distribution. The system created can properly manage and record breastfeeding ownership, who is the donors and recipients. By utilizing Internet technology, information dissemination can be accessed quickly and easily.

Various authors maintain that innovation practices depend on business strategies, therefore companies must configure an organizational structure that facilitates the coordination of tasks and allows objectives to be reached. In a sample of 203 service companies, an analysis was carried out of the influence of business strategies and organizational characteristics on technical innovation and administrative innovation. The results indicate that there is an important relationship between the business strategy and the technical and administrative innovations. On the other hand, organizational characteristics only had a significant relationship with technical innovation but not with the administrative innovation.

Based on data from UPPKH sub-district of Central Praya Year in 2017. The number of beneficiaries from the Government Program namely the Program Family expectations (PKH) and Beneficiary Families (KPM) is 3,425 which are spread throughout the villages in the Central Praya. The existence of the problems and constraints that have emerged is the difficulty the other escorts who are outside of the town would like to know the location and development of recipient PKH KPM. Extention Geoprocessing is a tool for processing spatial data in ArcView. The use of extension geoprocessing on the geographic information syste is one tool that can be used to assist in analyzing the condition and whereabouts of beneficiaries of government programs, especially the PKH KPM Program, especially in the Central Praya sub-district.The method used in analyzing data is the model SPIRAL method, the programming language used is PHP / MapScript, and criteria used are sourced from BPS. With the building of a geographic information system mapping the PKH KPM location, the community and the government will find it easier to know the development of poverty and can facilitate outside sub-district facilitators to find the location of PKH KPM in the central Praya sub-district.
