The paper examined and brought to the fore the typical characteristic of urban and peri-urban farmers in Freetown and Bo communities which serves as major source of supply of agricultural products into the cities’ markets. The social and environmental aspect and perception of producers involved in urban and peri-urban agriculture was examined. Descriptive statistics and pictograms were used to analyze and present the data. Results indicate that 56.34% never went to formal school and mostly dominated by women, showing that farming became the alternative means of livelihood support for those groups. Crops grown are purely influenced by market orientation—demand and cost, as is evident in Gloucester (lettuce, cabbage and spring onions). Potato leaves were commonly grown in almost all communities, reason being that it serves as common/major sauce/vegetable cooked in every household in Sierra Leone. Maize and rice were featured in Ogoo farm—government supervised land set aside purposely for growing crops to supply the city. Findings also revealed that majority of the farmers are resource poor, judging from calculation about their monthly income earning and available household assets and amenities. About 70.4% of the lands the farmers grow their crops on is leased for production. Except for Gloucester community, when costs of production will be summed, minimal benefit seem to be realized from the farming activities. Even though some of these farmers are engaged in organization, many have limited access to micro financial organization that would probably loan them money to upscale production.

The present study aimed at finding out various practices of Bank Thithil at Bethek Urban Village, Malang, along with the people’s perception and the impact of such practices towards the people’s welfare. Employing qualitative approach, this study focuses on the people’s perception, particularly those belonging to debtors trapped in Bank Thithil, such bank’s creditors, and some local cultural leaders, who lived at Bethek Urban Village, Malang. Data collection was carried out by interviews, observation and documentation. In analyzing the data, Miles Huberman’s analysis was employed which consisted of the following action: collection, reduction, display, and conclusion drawing supported by a phenomenological method which tried to capture and understand the reality. The result showed that Bank Thithil at Bethek Urban Village belonged to an informal financial organization as it was not a legal entity. As a consequence, the creditors may set rules of loan and sanctions without any reference to the legal law of financial organizations in Indonesia. The people’s perception towards Bank Thithil was various; some people felt fine with its practices because they need it and some another people strongly disagreed for some reasons, one is the prohibition on Islamic law.

<span>In our experience of having worked with financial institutions for over 19 calendar years, we have seen that application development, maintenance and operations teams have a very silo-ed existence. In today's ever more fluid market, it is imperative for these teams to be very agile in their response to business needs. While development teams are trying to adopt agile and devops practices, operations and maintenance teams are sometimes forgotten in this transformation journey even though they play a very crucial role in managing customer facing systems. In this paper, we focus on application operations for their simplification, outline the post production challenges faced by the operations teams, assistance required from the development teams and need for coordination &amp; harmony between application development and operations teams. We use the example of a financial organization where we are currently helping in simplification of application support processes using two key levers of cloud and devops adoption to highlight the path to simplification. We outline the solution levers we used, solution tenets, solution approach and considerations. We also share a target state model and regulated key functions &amp; activities within the model as well as an interim operating model and a target operating model.</span>
