RURAL ARCHITECTURE AND SUSTAINABILITY: LEARNING FROM THE PAST
Get PDFTraditional rural living environments have the potential to be instructive in numerous ways. Rural settlements, which are often created with a minimum of effort and have been around for thousands of years, can be a template for living environments of tomorrow. Starting off with that proposition, this paper goes on to emphasize the importance of examining the characteristics of traditional rural settlements in the context of sustainability. The article aims to analyze and thus improve our understanding of rural settlements, and in the process of doing so, it produces and reproduces knowledge within the field of sustainability. A model consisting of multiple layers was applied through the sampling of a particular rural-traditional settlement (Taraklı), thereby shedding light on the relationship between the settlement and the parameters of environmental sustainability. In that model, three main methods of learning from traditional architecture were proposed: (1) Learning From Vernacular Architecture (LF-VA) through existing settlements; (2) Learning From Experience (LF-E) through those who have learned from vernacular approaches; and, (3) Learning from Research (LF-R). Through the use of that model, the data obtained constitutes a holistic pool of information. The basic facts articulated in this pool are models, concepts and theories, and the prominent concepts include documentation, conservation, adaptation and innovation. As a result of the analysis based on the model, the relationship of the physical characteristics of the rural-traditional settlement exemplified in the article with the environmental sustainability parameters has been illustrated systematically. In the literature, the products of rural architecture generally exist with identification and documentation studies. In this article, the relationship between rural architecture and sustainability is discussed in the context of learning from the past and it is shown through an existing settlement. Â
BARRIERS AND SUPPORTS IN STARTING FARM-STAY BUSINESSES WITH INBOUND TOURISM EXPERIENCED BY MIGRANTS IN RURAL JAPAN (CASE STUDY OF LOCAL VITALIZATION COOPERATOR ENTREPRENEURS)
Get PDFThe purpose of this study is to clarify the barriers and the process of supports obtained in starting the farm-stay businesses with inbound tourism from the perspective of migrants. In- depth interviews on entrepreneurship of farm-stay businesses among local vitalization cooperators (LVC) were conducted, and the following results were found. First, there are two main types of barriers when starting farm-stay businesses namely barriers caused by new businesses start-up and barriers caused by local life. The barriers caused by local life have three aspects: an inadequate understanding of the ways to interact with local residents, insufficient information on community rules, and insufficient agricultural knowledge. The barriers to receiving foreigners include lack of understanding by neighbors, publicity, service and activities supplied, and matching facilities. Second, supports can also be divided into two categories: supports in local life and those in business start-up. The network and trust relationship established with local residents during the first stage of overcoming local life barriers can help overcome the barriers faced when starting businesses. Meanwhile, supports in business start-up deepen the relationship between migrants and local residents, thus playing a supportive role in life stabilization. Third, by analyzing the LVC cases, we conclude that ordinary migrants need ample time to undergo the process of accommodating to local life, thereby building a network and trust with local regions before starting new businesses. This research provides references on the study of starting new businesses in rural areas from the migrants’ views and issues to farm-stay businesses and inbound tourism at the starting phase

The current paper reviews the protection of family according to Iraqi legislation and discusses various types of crimes involving children or families according to Iraqi law. In this article doctrinal legal research was adopted and it assessed sources from both primary and secondary data. The research concludes that Iraqi legislation provides correct protection through a number of legal texts organizing the crimes against family. However, it has failed to achieve full criminal protection for the family. There are both theoretical weakness of law and the routine abuse against family in daily practice. The present paper aims to fill a critical gap in our understanding regarding deficient area in Iraqi law while dealing with the rights of members of family and proposes further work to be done so that Iraqi legislator can provide full criminal protection for family
Equal Access to the Vaccination of Covid-19 in Southeast Asia: Can ASEAN be a Catalyst?
Get PDFSince the time Covid-19 was discovered in Southeast Asia, around 2.5 million people have been infected and more than 54 thousand have died by early March 2021. Even though ASEAN members have followed most of the WHO recommendations to deal with Covid-19, cases are still liable to increase. Therefore, vaccine utilization is the best chance which people believe in to fight the pandemic for now. However, the vaccine’s availability and distribution are a dilemma for the ASEAN member countries. Therefore, this article aims to determine the possibility of ASEAN’s role in creating equal access to the Covid-19 vaccine for everyone. According to the juridical normative research, ASEAN is committed to protect and promote human rights and to realize the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). On that basis, the organization tends to play an important role in Covid-19 vaccination in Southeast Asia by cooperating with its partners to research and create the required vaccine

Support Technical Evaluation Using Q-System Method in Development Area of Grasberg Block Cave (GBC) Mine PT Freeport Indonesia
Get PDFPT Freeport Indonesia (PTFI) applies two mining systems, open pit mining in Grasberg and underground mining. This study was carried out in the Grasberg Block Cave (GBC) underground in extraction level at panel area, one of the underground mines located just below the Grasberg open pit mine by the block cave method. At present, GBC is in the development process, one of the cycles in development process is supporting installation. Supporting installation is the last cycle which include two operations, namely primary support installation and secondary support installation. The study was conducted on primary support. Primary support is the operation after excavation has been completed and aims to strengthen the rock mass (reinforcement). The use of primary support material actually experiences a significant increase so a technical study is needed to determine the difference between material requirements based on the design and actual conditions. After that, an evaluation is carried out by redesigned the support system based on rock mass classification of the Q-System to obtain a safe support recommendation. The Q value for Panel 16 is 0.7 including to the poor rock mass. The Q value for Panel 14 is 2.9 including to the fair rock mass. According to this study, recommendations are obtained using a split set length of 2.1 meters and 1.3 meters spacing and resin bolt with a length 2.4 meters and 1.2 meters spacing for panel areas with poor and fair conditions. Numerical modelling with finite element method is done with the help of Phase2 software version 8.0 determine the strength factor of the recommendations obtained analytically. Based on the results of the modelling, it is found that the smallest strength factor is 1.3.Â
