ABSTRACTSerang Regency in Banten Province is a multi-prone area of natural disaster, with the greatest potential disasters particularly like floods, landslides, earthquakes, tidal waves, tsunamis, and abrasion. At the time of the Banten tsunami at December 2018, Bulakan Village, Cinangka Subdistrict, Serang Regency was a tsunami affected area that was classified as quite severe. Natural disasters are real threats with non-military threats.The role of relevant ministries/government institutions as the main element in non-military defense also needs attention. The aim of this study is to find the root of the problems and also the solutions related to non-military defense in confronting the real threat in the form of a tsunami disaster that struck the Serang Regency. This research is using a qualitative method supported by the case-study method. All the information obtained from the defined informants was analyzed by qualitative analysis technique. This research also aims to analyze the implementation of coastal area empowerment strategies and institutional synergy mechanism implemented at Bulakan Vilage, Cinangka Subdistrict,  Serang Regency, Banten Province.The results showed that the empowerment of coastal areas in the form of institutional synergy in Serang District was carried out with a tsunami disaster management plan based on empowerment of coastal areas such as the development of coastal community disaster awareness, and compiling sustainable  plans for a tsunami disaster. Some factors that influence the implementation of the coastal areas empowering strategy in Serang Regency in facing the tsunami disaster are community supports and good communication among the stakeholders.ABSTRAK           Kabupaten Serang di Provinsi Banten merupakan wilayah multirawan bencana, dengan potensi bencana  terbesar yang meliputi banjir, tanah longsor, gempa, gelombang pasang, tsunami, dan abrasi. Pada saat tsunami yang menerjang Selat Sunda pada Desember 2018 lalu, Desa Bulakan, Kecamatan Cinangka, Kabupaten Serang merupakan daerah terdampak tsunami yang tergolong cukup parah. Bencana alam merupakan ancaman nyata berdimensi ancaman nir-militer. Peran kementerian/ lembaga pemerintah terkait sebagai unsur utama dalam pertahanan nir-militer juga perlu mendapat perhatian, sehingga ditemukan akar permasalahan dan solusi terkait pertahanan nir-militer dalam menghadapi anacaman nyata berupa bencana tsunami yang melanda wilayah Kabupaten Serang. Penelitian ini menerapkan metode kualitatif yang didukung oleh metode penelitian studi kasus. Informasi yang didapatkan dari para narasumber yang dituju selanjutnya dibahas dengan menerapkan teknik analisis kualitatif. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis implementasi strategi pemberdayaan wilayah pesisir dan mekanisme sinergitas kelembagaan yang dilaksanakan di wilayah Desa Bulakan, Kecamatan Cinangka, Kabupaten Serang, Provinsi Banten. Hasil dari kajian ini memperlihatkan bahwa pemberdayaan wilayah pesisir di Desa Bulakan  dalam bentuk sinergitas kelembagaan di Kabupaten Serang dilakukan dengan rencana aksi penanggulangan bencana tsunami berbasis pemberdayaan wilayah pesisir yang meliputi pembinaan kesadaran bencana masyarakat pesisir, dan menyusun rencana simulasi bencana tsunami berkelanjutan. Faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi terselenggaranya strategi pemberdayaan wilayah pesisir di wilayah Serang dalam menghadapi bencana tsunami adalah dukungan masyarakat dan komunikasi yang baik antara para pemangku kepentingan

Indonesia coastal areas have considerable natural disaster potential including in Kalianda District South Lampung Regency. Natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis and volcanic activity are likely to occur in coastal areas. The disaster has an impact on economic losses in the marine tourism area. In order to mitigate tsunami disasters in the marine tourism area of Kalianda District, South Lampung Regency, 3 (three) types of tsunami mitigation are needed, namely: construction of coastal protection, installation of the Tsunami Early Warning System (TEWS) and planting of coastal vegetation. This study aims to determine the value of willingness to pay (WTP) of community and tourists in supporting the management of the three types of tsunami disaster mitigation above by using economic valuation / Contingent Valuation Method (CVM). The results of this study indicate that the WTP value of community for coastal protection management is Rp 15.547/person/month while the WTP value of tourist is Rp 12.030/one time entry. Meanwhile, for the WTP value of TEWS management is obtained Rp 12.174/person/month. WTP value for the management of coastal vegetation is Rp 12.444/person/month. The WTP calculation is based on consideration of 3 (three) factors, namely age, income, livelyhood and education level. This research shows that the community and tourists are willing to pay for the management of the three types of tsunami disaster mitigation through BUMDes and entrance fees for marine tourism area. The three types of tsunami disaster mitigation can protect, provide security and calm to the community and tourists in the marine tourism area of Kalianda District, South Lampung Regency from future tsunami.

The role of information technology (IT) in managing disasters is increasingly being recognized. The Healing Touch project was started after the tsunami disaster in Tamilnadu to address the healthcare needs of the survivors through IT. Specifically; it provided mental health support to the victims near their place of residence. This project has been different from other telemedicine projects because: It was sponsored and managed entirely by NGOs. The local community and local NGOs were directly trained to manage there own health problems after the natural disaster. Success was linked to the intensive pre and post execution work done. We believe that preparation and involvement of people is the key to success in most IT projects. Some problems we faced were related to a general lack of awareness and nonpenetration of IT in the community we served. If people are using IT in their day to day work; adoption of telemedicine and other e-services will be far simpler after a disaster.
