This work presents a VSAT based approach for extending mobile communication access to rural communities in developing countries using VSAT and satellite technology. The rural areas are clustered into village community cells with each cluster being served by a non regenerative bidirectional repeater system. The telecommunication technology of choice is the GSM standard. Traffic from the rural areas is collated together at the access point which serves as an interface between the village community cells and the satellite. The access points perform a frequency translation moving the signal from the GSM band to the satellite band at the transmitter and vice versa at the receiver. The system maximizes the advantage of satellite communication technology over other types in linking remote areas to urban centers that are geographically far apart. The satellite then links the village cell to the operator’s network via a dedicated BTS in the urban area. The system has the advantage of being modular, scalable and solar powered due to the low traffic from rural areas.

The autonomy of village government offers an important role in the development of rural areas. The village government can serve as a governmental axis, which directly shapes and governs people on daily basis. Thus, national development is inseparable from the devotion of village government. Nevertheless, there are still many problems faced by the village community, which until now cannot be completely solved. These problems ranging from the limited ability of the village government in carrying out its functions and roles, slow growth and social change in village, the tendency of rural communities to passively involve in social and economic change to dependence on parties outside the village area. It is thus imperative that the implementation of an effective evaluation process of village government must be explored and strengthened. This is research is conducted to answer “how to evaluate the village government in order to achieve autonomous and prosperous village.” This research use descriptive qualitative approach, in order to interpret facts by accurately describing the nature of certain group or individual phenomena derived from the findings. It finds that Permendagri No. 81/2015 as the focal regulation on the development of village government regulates the evaluation process of village government into eight process: (1) self-evaluation, (2) assessment, (3) analysis, (4) validation, (5) review, (6) clarification, (7) ranking, and (8) ministerial decree if needed. However, the research finds that in several indicators, there need to be some improvement or a more detailed set of sub-indicators that specifically address the diversity of village’s characteristics.

Penyebaran wabah COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease Tahun 2019) yang bermula di bulan Desember 2019 dari salah satu negara di Asia semakin meluas dan berskala pandemi telah mencapai hingga ke hampir di seluruh belahan dunia. Di Indonesia penyebaran COVID-19  ini telah menularkan hingga mencapai 307.120 orang, dengan korban meninggal sebanyak 11.253 jiwa (BNPB, 2020b). Situasi ini menggambarkan bahwa penyebaran virus corona adalah secara masif dan dengan korban jiwa yang besar. Hingga saat ini belum ada pengobatan yang dapat menyembuhkan virus corona ini. Penyebaran COVID-19 ini semakin meluas hingga ke seluruh wilayah di Indonesia, dan tidak terkecuali di wilayah pedesaan. Permasalahan yang dialami oleh masyarakat desa adalah kurangnya kepedulian masyarakat terhadap pandemi COVID-19 dan protokol kesehatan yang telah ditetapkan pemerintah sebagai upaya dalam memutus rantai penyebaran virus corona. Di satu sisi masyarakat desa berupaya untuk dapat mempertahankan ekonomi keluarganya dengan tetap melakukan aktivitas di luar rumah walaupun dengan risiko yang besar. Melihat situasi ini maka tergerak keinginan untuk melakukan program bakti sosial dengan tujuan sebagai salah satu bentuk kepedulian dan realisasi dari kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat khususnya di pedesaan. Kegiatan dalam upaya bersama masyarakat untuk memperkokoh mindset masyarakat terhadap pencegahan penyebaran COVID-19 adalah melalui pembuatan spanduk himbauan di beberapa lokasi yang sering dilewati masyarakat, penyemprotan disinfektan ke rumah-rumah warga, penempelan stiker, dan sosialisasi protokol kesehatan sebagai wujud dari mengubah mindset masayarakat yang masih belum percaya. Seluruh kegiatan ini mendapatkan dukungan dan antusiasme masyarakat desa yang berjumlah 2.325 jiwa serta mampu mengubah mindset sebelumnya. The spread of the Coronavirus Diseases 2019 called the COVID-19 outbreak, which began in December 2019 from one of the countries in Asia. That is increasingly widespread, and the pandemic scale has reached almost all parts of the world. In Indonesia, the spread of COVID-19 has infected up to 307,120 people, with 11,253 deaths (BNPB, 2020b). This situation illustrates that the spread of the coronavirus is massive and with enormous casualties. Until now, no treatment can cure this coronavirus. COVID-19 is increasingly spreading to all regions in Indonesia, and rural areas are no exception. The problems experienced by rural communities are the lack of public awareness of the COVID-19 pandemic and the health protocols that the government has set to break the chain of the spread of the coronavirus. On the one hand, the village community strives to maintain the family's economy by carrying out activities outside the home even though it is at significant risk. Seeing this situation, the desire to carry out social service programs moved to concern and realization of community service activities, especially in rural areas. Activities in a joint effort with the community to strengthen the community's mindset towards preventing the spread of COVID-19 are through the making of appeal banners in several locations that are often passed by the community, spraying disinfectants into people's homes, sticking stickers, and socializing health protocols as a form of changing the mindset of people who still do not believe it. All of these activities received the support and enthusiasm of the village community, totaling 2,325 people, and were able to change the previous mindset.

Currently the government continues to strive to build and develop the economy of rural areas through community empowerment programs with the aim of increasing productivity, business diversity and regional potential with the aim of improving the economy and welfare of rural communities. One of the government programs is by providing a budget. Funds in the field of community empowerment are used to support capital for the formation of Village Owned Enterprises (BUMDes). Where in accordance with the objectives of BUMDes, namely optimizing the management of village assets and the potential of existing villages, to support the village economy, and improve the welfare of the village community. But unfortunately, until now the role and function of my BUMDes has not been effective and cannot be felt by the community. This is due to the incompetence and lack of professionalism of human resources managing BUMDes and the lack of integration of the businesses managed by BUMDes with the existing village potential so that it seems as if BUMDes stands only as a formality without supporting the economic potential of rural communities. The purpose of this study is to create a strategic concept in the management of BUMDes so that it runs more effectively and according to targets so that it can support the economy of rural communities through the development of human resource knowledge in managing BUMDes that is integrated with the economic potential of rural communities. So that BUMDes and Village Basic Pontesials are integrated in a business institution that supports the village economy for the welfare of the village community. This solution can help rural communities in strengthening their economy and provide knowledge views and open insight to BUMDes managers so that they can develop BUMDes into businesses that are in synergy with the community. This study uses primary data sourced from questionnaires and interviews aimed at BUMDes management employees to see the extent to which the abilities, expertise, and knowledge of BUMDes management employees can evaluate and innovate in the business.

Indonesia needs to have social capital so that groups living in a society consisting of approximately 500 ethnic groups can unite. Every ethnicity has the potential to maintain its culture and territory. Moreover, Indonesia is a country where most of the population lives in rural areas and only a small part lives in urban areas. With the lack of economic development and education in the rural villages, the information flowing in the villages is not as fast and significant as in the cities. Even the da'i (preachers) have to fight harder to gain trust, so that they can provide precise and accurate religious information to the village community. This study discusses deeper on how Social Capital communication as a cultural da'wah can touch the community, especially in rural areas, to absorb religious information properly and correctly. This case study employs literature review method in collecting the data. The descriptive approach employed in this study also helps investigate the status of the existing factors and then looks at the relationship between one factor and another. Human resources or human capital is a very important and strategic capital in the life of a community organization. This is especially in terms of how a preacher as a communicator can convey his da'wah message to the village community, with a cultural and belief approach. Such way of communication is what makes the village communities easier to accept the da'wah activities since they are based on trust, mutual understanding and shared values. In addition, the communicators also convey all information about religion according to the existing culture and beliefs.
