Menyoal Kesenjangan dan Diskriminisi Publik Terhadap Penyandang Disabilitas

Disabilitas menjadi topik permasalahan yang serius periode belakangan ini, hal tersebut dikarenakan penyandang disabilitas rawan akan berbagai tindakan diskriminasi secara fisik maupun mental, bahkan difabel rentan menjadi korban pelecehan seksual dalam ruang lingkup keluarga ataupun non difabel. Para disabilitas menghadapi berbagai problematika dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Penyandang disabilitas seringkali di tolak dengan alasan keterbatasan mereka, bahkan ada beberapa yang menjadikan sehat jasmani dan rohani sebagai syarat utama untuk bisa mangakses bidang-bidang tertentu. Bahkan pelanggaran Hak Asasi Manusia (HAM) terhadap penyandang disabilitas masih dijumpai di lokasi sekitar. Kesenjangan yang diterima oleh penyandang disabilitas menjadi tekanan tersendiri bagi para difabel untuk memenuhi segala aspek kebutuhannya. Pemenuhan hak-hak disabilitas masih kurang diperhatikan, baik dalam sarana bangunan atau infastruktur, maupun fasilitas-fasilitas di tempat umum. Ketidaksetaraan juga terjadi dalam sektor pendidikan, lapangan pekerjaan, politik, dan aksesibilitas terhadap transportasi. Hal tersebut menunjukkan adanya perlakuan yang berbeda yang diterima oleh penyandang disabilitas terhadap layanan publik yang ramah bagi penyandang disabilitas.Disability has become a serious problem topic in recent times, this is because people with disabilities are prone to various acts of discrimination physically and mentally, even people with disabilities are vulnerable to being victims of sexual harassment within the family or non-disabled spheres. People with disabilities face various problems in their daily life. Persons with disabilities are often rejected on the grounds of their limitations, there are even some who make physically and mentally healthy as the main requirement to be able to access certain fields. Even human rights violations against persons with disabilities are still found in nearby locations. The gap that is accepted by people with disabilities is a separate pressure for people with disabilities to meet all aspects of their needs. Fulfillment of disability rights is still lacking in attention, both in building facilities or infrastructure, as well as facilities in public places. Inequality also exists in the sectors of education, employment, politics, and accessibility to transportation. This shows that there is a different treatment received by persons with disabilities towards public services that are friendly to persons with disabilities.

Peran Ulama Dalam Sistem Pemerintahan di Propinsi Aceh

Salah satu keistimewaan Aceh yang diberikan oleh pemerintah pusat pasca reformasi dibawah payung hukum Undang-Undang Nomor 44 Tahun 1999 tentang Penyelenggaraan Keistimewaan Aceh adalah terkait dengan peran ulama dalam penetapan kebijakan daerah, kemudian peran tersebut juga kembali dituangkan dalam Undang-Undang Nomor 11 Tahun 2006 tentang Pemerintah Aceh. Namun, dalam implementasinya ternyata ulama belum diberikan peran yang signifikan dalam penetapan kebijakan di ranah lokal. Ulama hanya berperan dalam kebijakan terkait kegamaan saja, tidak seluruh bidang aspek pemerintahan. Dalam praktinya, kebijakan yang dibahas bersama antara Pemerintah, Dewan, dan Majelis Permusyawaratan Ulama (MPU) sering diabaikan, sehingga paket kebijakan pemerintah daerah lebih dominan dikendalikan oleh kepentingan pemerintah daerah dan Dewan. Kondisi ini sekaligus memperlihatkan bahwasanya kedudukan MPU kurang tepat dikatakan sebagai mitra sejajar dengan pemerintah daerah dan Dewan, namun lebih kepada sekedar pemberi nasehat saja.One of the privileges of Aceh given by the central government after the reform under the legal umbrella of Law Number 44 of 1999 concerning the Implementation of the Privileges of Aceh is related to the role of ulama in determining regional policies, then this role is also re-asserted in Law Number 11 of 2006 concerning Aceh Government. However, in its implementation, it turns out that the ulama have not been given a significant role in setting policies in the local sphere. Ulama only play a role in policies related to religion, not all aspects of government. In practice, policies that are discussed jointly between the Government, the Council, and the Ulema Consultative Council (MPU) are often ignored, so that the regional government's policy package is more dominantly controlled by the interests of the regional government and the Council. This condition also shows that the MPU's position is not appropriate to say that it is an equal partner with the regional government and the Council, but rather merely as an advisor.

Livelihood of Entrepreneurs of Union Digital Centers in Bangladesh: An Empirical Study

Union Digital Centers (UDCs) have changed not just how government services are delivered, but also how entrepreneurs (UDDOKTA) live. This study appraises the demographic status of entrepreneurs of Union Digital Centers in Bangladesh. This study is based on a mixed approach to social research. Data were collected from 45 entrepreneurs of 25 UDCs in the southern part of Bangladesh. This study found most of the entrepreneurs get appointed from local inhabitants with proper training though it has a chance of political influence but regular monitoring has occurred. The entrepreneurs are under the age of 30 with a standard educational background. The reasons for joining at UDCs are to generate income and to enter an independent profession. Among male and female entrepreneurs, the dropout rate is higher regarding female than male counterparts because of their pregnancy or after marital issues. The rate of availability of male entrepreneurs in UDCs is higher than the female counterparts. Although the income of the entrepreneurs has become higher than before joining, low-income generation by male Entrepreneurs is surely a concern if it becomes lower than expectation. However, authorities must take care of the entrepreneur’s issues so that they can serve the entire community.
