Purpose The research aims to classify halal hotels based on Islamic values as embodied in both physical and non-physical attributes. Design/methodology/approach This study explores the perceived values of business owners of the halal hotels. Findings Perceptions of hotel owners are divided into three types: those who view the value of halal hotel only in terms of branding and attracting consumers; those who consider the ideology behind halal hotels based on strong Islamic values; and those who avoid halal branding but implement Islamic values in their hotels. For the hotel industry, halal certification is not a priority because a minimum effort at implementing halal standards can already attract Muslim customers. This case is especially true for countries where Muslims make up the majority of the population. Research limitations/implications This study was limited to a case study in Bandung and Bangkok as a representative of halal tourism in Asia. Hence, it could be extended by conducting comparative studies with other cities in Association of South East Asian Nation which already declare to develop halal tourism. Practical implications The findings of this research show that there is a large variety of halal hotel products, depending on the Islamic values upheld, which is causing difficulties for the government in creating standards. Then the result can help inform the government in establishing the strategic framework of halal tourism development, more particularly in the formulation of policy for industrial actors. Originality/value The findings contribute to the concept of product-centered business, in which it is generally assumed that industrial actors are frequently focused on the mere label of “halal” and ignore the true values. However, the research shows that some industrial actors put Islamic values first instead of the mere halal label, and another case shows that some of them implement Islamic values in their business but avoid halal branding. This empirical evidence shows that in halal hotels, the concept of product-centered is not always proper. The quality of halal hotel products depends on the Islamic value of the owner, not always influenced by business imperatives.

This study aims to examine development communication in community participation in village development planning. Community participation is very important because it can guarantee the effectiveness of development programs. There are a number of obstacles to community participation in development planning. Some identified barriers are the absence of legal support (Rumensten, 2012), lack of public awareness, low quality of human resources, length of stay and hours employment type (Wijaksono, 2013), lack of socialization from the government (Sagita, 2016), poverty and limited access provided by the government (Ompusunggu, 2017), and interest of bureaucracy in planning (Mbeche, 2017). These studies, indeed, have not considered yet cultural factor leading to disinvolvement. This qualitative case study extends previous studies by revealing the culture of mamfatin ukunrai discouraging community participation in development planning in Naran Village (pseudonym), Raimanuk Subdistrict, Belu Regency. Mamfatin ukunrai is a custom considering development planning is government's duties and responsibilities. Villagers are merely the executor of development programs. This custom is a legacy of royal government system and dominates the mindset of villagers. The tradition of highly appreciating the government unwittingly creates an invisible distance between government and society. It has discouraged villagers’ participation.

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.

This article is a case study on the education of Orang Asli in Malaysia. Indigenous people or “orang asli” are the oldest inhabitants of Peninsular Malaysia but they are the minority among the total population in Malaysia.  A study showed that around 50 percent of the students from the Orang Asli community do not further their study in secondary school after finishing their primary school and only 30 percent of students of Orang Asli finish their secondary school, which is less than half of the national average. The statistics of the education progress of Orang Asli are quite worrisome for a lot of parties especially the government and there are a lot of factors that contribute to those, not good-looking results. In order to improve the quality of education, studies on the challenges faced by the Orang Asli are a must. There are a lot of factors causing that specific problem. One of the factors is would be the awareness amongst the Orang Asli community towards education and another factor is would be the Orang Asli accessibility to their nearest education institution. In a nutshell, the Orang Asli are the minority communities that had been marginalized for decades and to achieve the aim to reduce poverty and uplift quality of life them, education is the main key to success.

ABSTRAKKebutuhan gula pasir yang bersumber dari tanaman tebu (Sacharum oficinarum L) untuk konsumsi rumah tangga dan industri pada tingkat nasional menempati posisi kedua setelah beras. Ketidakmampuan produksi nasional memaksa pemerintah membuka kran impor gula pasir untuk memenuhi kekurangan. Namun tetap saja kurang, sehingga ada indikasi industri makanan/minuman menggunakan gula sintetis. Oleh karenanya, tumbuh keinginan masyarakat untuk mencari alternatif pemanis alami berkalori rendah. Salah satu sumber pemanis tersebut adalah tanaman stevia (Stevia rebudiana). Namun hingga saat ini, pengembangan stevia nasional terkendala oleh ketersediaan benih. Peneliti dan pemulia Unpad melakukan rekayasa genetika stevia melalui induksi mutasi sinar gama dalam rangka menjawab kebutuhan tersebut. Agar komoditas ini adaptif dan sesuai dengan kebutuhan pengguna, pemulia melibatkan masyarakat dalam pengembangannya. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan keterlibatan/partisipasi pengguna dalam pengembangan benih stevia hasil rekayasa tim Unpad, mengkaji faktor-faktor yang ada hubungannya dengan partisipasi petani dalam pengembangan stevia, dan menelaah faktor-faktor yang menjadi pertimbangan dalam penggunaan benih stevia Unpad. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik studi kasus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa partisipasi petani dalam pengembangan benih stevia adalah dalam bentuk ide/gagasan, kontribusi fisik dan kontribusi finansial. Partisipasi tidak terlepas faktor dukungan koperasi yang berfungsi sebagai penampung hasil, kelompok sebagai tempat belajar, dan petani anggota sebagai pelaku yang menjaga kuantitas dan kualitas produksi. Penggunaan benih stevia Unpad dipertimbangkan jika secara teknis stevia yang dikembangkan berumur pendek, memiliki rendemen gula yang tinggi, adaptif terhadap lingkungan, serta memiliki cabang yang cukup banyak. Kata kunci: pemuliaan stevia, partisipasi petaniABSTRACTThe need for sugar sourced from sugar cane (Sacharum oficinarum L) for household and industrial consumption at the national level occupies the second position after rice. The inability of national production forced the government to import sugar in order to meet the shortage. Import has not solved the problem, even there is an indication that food/beverage industries used synthetic sugar. Hence, desire of the community to find alternative natural low-calorie sweeteners has been growing. One of the sources of sweetener is stevia (Stevia rebudiana). Unpad researchers and breeders genetically modified stevia through induction of gamma rays in order to answer these needs. In order for this commodity to be adaptive and in accordance with the needs of users, breeders involved the community in its development. The purposre of this study was to describe the involvement/participation of users in the development of stevia seeds engineered by Unpad team, to examine factors that have to do with farmer participation in the development of stevia, and to study the factors that are considered in the use of Unpad stevia seeds. This research is descriptive qualitative research with case study techniques. The results showed that farmers' participation in the development of stevia seeds was in the form of ideas, physical contributions and financial contributions. Participation cannot be separated from several factors, namely the cooperative support, which functions as a place of results, the farmer group as a place of learning, and member farmers as actors who maintain the quantity and quality of production. The use of Unpad stevia seeds is considered if technically, developed stevia is short-lived, has a high sugar yield, is adaptive to the environment, and has quite a lot of branches.Keywords: stevia breeding, farmer participation
