Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (UMKM) in Indonesia are contributors to national economic growth. In East Java itself, the number of MSMEs is relatively large. However, there are still many obstacles in its development, such as the ineffective partnership pattern, and the development is not as expected. Therefore, this study aims to determine the implementation of the partnership model between MSME entrepreneurs with medium and large scale businesses that have been running so far, the involvement of local governments in implementing the partnership model, obstacles encountered in implementing the partnership model, as well as how to develop the MSME partnership model with medium and large scale business. The method used in this study is a mix method (qualitative and quantitative). The results showed that the implementation of the partnership model between MSME entrepreneurs with medium and large scale businesses so far has been enhanced by involving companies through the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program. Local government involvement is also through regulations with the concept of partnership of MSME entrepreneurs with medium and large companies. Obstacles faced including coordination between stakeholders is still not optimal. By increasing MSME partnerships with medium and large businesses it is expected to overcome existing obstacles such as limited resources.
The reference to the success factors of incubators and startups in running their business so far has been ambiguous. The purpose of this study is to analyze the critical factors that can affect the success of incubators and startups. The quantitative research method describes the research results. The study locus is in East Java Province, Indonesia with primary data from respondents in five regions: Banyuwangi, Jember, Madiun, Malang, and Surabaya. The number of respondents was 41 from incubators and 59 from startups with identification of domicile, type of business, and business turnover. Data was collected using surveys and interviews with 100 respondents. The analysis in this study uses eleven factors that are assumed to be factors of business success that have been tested with Kaiser Meyer Olkin Measure (KMO), Measure of Sampling Adequacy (MSA), Bartlett’s test, and Cronbach Alpha. The critical point used for the KMO value is between 0.5 and 1, the MSA test critical point is 0.5, Bartlett’s test is less than the significance level (α = 0.05), and α cronbach ≥ 0.60. The analyzed factors are as follows: synergy products; processes; innovation management; communication; culture; experience; information technology; innovation skills; functional skills; and implementation skills. As a result, incubators and startups agree on eleven critical factors to building their business success, but there are differences in the priority scale between incubators and startups on these eleven factors.
Dalam perekonomian yang serba sulit seperti sekarang ini pemerintah daerah dipaksa untuk segera memacu diri agar berfikir kreatif, inovatif, dan cepat. Jika tidak, maka bayang-bayang permasalahan sosial yang akut akan selalu menghantui seperti kemiskinan dan pengangguran. Salah stu cara untuk mengatasinya, pemerintah daerah harus segera berbenah diri menjadi motivator dan fasilitator untuk menyadarkan dan memperdayakan warga msikin dalam lingkup kecil, guna mengenali lingkungan terkecil di dekatnya dan memamnfaatkannya sesuai potensi daerah masing-masing. Juga membangun kesadaran masyarakat miskin dengan konsep pemberdayaan dengan menggali dimensi-dimensi pendukung dan pendorong pemberdayaan yakni dimensi konsep, proses, tjuan, dan indikator.
Housing needs in major cities in Indonesia are increasing due to urbanization. The solution taken by the government is to provide rental housing (rusunawa). Low income families who initially live in slums need some adaption when moving into the rusunawa. The purpose of this research is to analyze the socio-demographic relationships of families, social capital and subjective well-being (SWB). Using quantitative method and household survey, this study was conducted by giving questionnaires and interview to 90 residents of 396 rusunawa units. The study use regression analysis. Thus, the result shows that social capital, the social network, and trust, determine the SWB. If SWB is an indicator of the process of adaption of a person or family in a new place, in this study, we concluded that these two variables were very important for the resident. Using social networking and trust, these residents can adjust to a new housing milieu.
The existence of Micro, Small, and Medium enterprises in Indonesia is cannot be underestimated. Moreover, it has contributed to the growth of economy. The government, especially Regional Government has established several efforts in developing the influence of Regional Government's policies on entrepreneurship. Thus, this research has purpose to know the influence of Regional Government's policies on entrepreneurship to reduce poverty. Afterward, this research is conducted in two regions in Indonesia which are Pamekasan and Tulungagung. The research used mix method approach between qualitative and quantitative. The results show that the Regional Government put more emphasis on three things. First, capital assistance is considered important because the micro industry is more based on families whose capital is limited. Second, marketing assistance is expected to expand the market reach of the products produced. Capital assistance is carried out with various schemes. Third, the training assistance as well as the fourth assistance for Industrial and Trade (TPL) extension workers. Yet, it found that several assistances provided by the government are insignificant. Hence, the right strategy in developing small industries in Pemekasan and Tulungagung Regencies is to increase attention to policies in terms of capital assistance and capital assistance which still face many obstacles. The obstacles faced are the limited budget for increasing capital assistance and marketing assistance. The ease of access to business assistance sources and the opportunity to participate in product promotion exhibitions is less affected by entrepreneurs. The right strategy in developing small industries in regions under research is to increase attention to policies in terms of capital assistance which still face many obstacles.
This study aimed to know the obstacles and the government policy in developing the social capital of small industry in facing competition in ASEAN Economy Community (AEC) period. Using quantitative and qualitative as the methodology, this study obtained the data through interview and focus group discussion. The result showed that the development of social capital that not maximum enough was becoming the obstacle for small industry. The connection between the businessman association with other party, such as big industry, civil society organization, banking and other stake holders should be expanded. Meanwhile the government had done some policy in developing the social capital of small industry by holding a training and competition, increasing the access and relation of small industry with foreign and national company, also helping on the social capital. Therefore, small industry still can survive in facing the AEC era.
Grand Forest Park (Tahura) is a nature conservation area for research, education, recreation, and human welfare. However, many Tahura such as Tahura R Soerjo in East Java is experiencing worrying conditions due to the exploitation of forests as a source of support for the community's economy. In Tahura, it was found that 3,814 Ha of Pine Forest had been converted into industrial and agricultural areas. This condition causes vegetation damage to reach 20% which also causes hydrological damage. Lack of understanding about the intangible benefits of forests, especially hydrology, will be detrimental to life in the future. If the hydrology is damaged, Tahura will lose the function of climate control and water management. The springs of the Brantas River that support ±40.64 million people in East Java will be threatened. For this reason, in this study, water discharge measurements were carried out based on forest types and land slope level tests using Freidman analysis because the data were not normally distributed. The measurement results show that there are significant differences in discharge, both based on forest type and based on the level of slope. It is hoped that from the results of this study, the government can make preventive policies to prevent and deal with this problem so that clean water from Tahura can be used sustainably.
Infrastructure development, especially roads, is hampered by the fact of rejection based on urgency and attachment to the Ulayat land of the local community. Therefore, further models are needed in the form of mitigation based on culture and local wisdom to avoid conflicts and land disputes and changes in their use. This study aims to identify the social impacts of the bypass Amor Road construction and its mitigation strategies based on the perceptions of the community and stakeholders. This research study uses a descriptive qualitative research method. Data collection techniques were carried out through documentation studies, observation, and in-depth interviews. The data analysis technique was carried out using SIA (social impact analysis). SIA helps the community, government, and private sector to better understand and anticipate possible social problems and the changes they bring about as a result of the construction of the bypass Amor road. The results of the study conclude that the success of road construction depends on the government’s mitigation strategy in adopting local values that live in the community which is then followed by the existence of a foundation and expansion of the fulfilment of community interests. This study recommends three things, namely, (1) conduct intensive and responsive socialization and approach; (2) approach community involvement through a community-based approach and traditional leaders; and (3) prepare alternative livelihoods based on community interest, local potential, market opportunities, and financial feasibility as well as providing capital for businesses.
