Strategic Duties and Roles of Reserve Components (KOMCAD) in Strengthening Indonesia National Defense as an Assistant to the Indonesian National Army
Get PDFThe defense of the Indonesian state, which adheres to the concept of a total people's defense and security system (Sishankamrata), requires the participation of all elements of society, including the Reserve Component, to strengthen national preparedness in facing various threats both from within and outside the country. This study aims to analyze and describe the role and inhibiting and supporting factors of the Reserve Component in the total people's defense and security system in the Jayakarta Military Regional Command, Jakarta. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with interviews and field studies at the Jayakarta Military Command, as well as data analysis from various primary and secondary sources related to the role of the Reserve Component. The results of the study indicate that the Reserve Component has a strategic role in supporting the TNI in the Jakarta area, especially in facing non-military threats such as natural disasters, social unrest, and cyber threats. In densely populated areas such as Jakarta, the Reserve Component is important in strengthening local security networks that involve the wider community. However, there are still several obstacles such as low public awareness of the importance of participation in Komcad, as well as limited facilities and infrastructure for their training and mobilization. On the other hand, Jakarta as the nation's capital has many supporting factors, such as adequate infrastructure, quick access to the center of government, and a diverse population that can be optimized for recruitment. This study also found that support from the government and coordination with the TNI at the local level are very important to improve the readiness of the Reserve Component in facing various contemporary threats
Data Envelopment Analysis Technique (DEA) and Technical Efficiency Performance of Privatized and Non-Privatized Firms in Nigeria
Get PDFThis study focused on assessing the impact of privatization on the technical efficiency of Nigeria's manufacturing sector, considering the unique economic, political, and organizational characteristics of Nigeria whether privatized firms perform better under private ownership compared to public ownership. The methodology employed for this assessment was Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), specifically utilizing the Output-Oriented Variable Returns to Scale (VRS) model. The selection of this model was influenced by its appropriateness for situations where manufacturing firms are undergoing substantial structural changes, such as privatization. The findings suggest an overall positive impact of privatization on technical efficiency, with enhanced performance and resource utilization among privatized firms. The study emphasizes the need for tailored policies and a deep understanding of local conditions when pursuing privatization initiatives, contributing to the international discourse on privatization's implications for economic development and efficiency. The study recommended that given the improved output technical efficiency post-privatization, reducing the size of public enterprises and entrusting them to private management is advisable. This aims to enhance output efficiency, minimize economic resource wastage, alleviate financial burdens on the public sector treasury, and encourage fiscal discipline while removing the constraints hindering profit maximization, the Nigeria government should fight double taxation and unreliable power supply, to encourage industrialization to speed up development in Nigeria. In conclusion, Ultimately, the study aims to inform the Nigerian government's decision-making regarding privatization strategies and their potential impact on the country's manufacturing sector and overall economic well-being

Internal and external communication by Pokdarwis is key in achieving tourism development from "Nepal Van Java" to Magelang Regency. Tourism awareness, community participation and agricultural tourism packages have also increased the attractiveness of this destination.

According to the Notary Law, a notary cannot have a profession that interferes with his performance, including being a mediator. In reality, notaries are often found mediating parties faced with civil disputes. The problem that will be analyzed in this research is the position of a Notary as a Mediator for the parties regarding the Deed they make without violating the PJN code of ethics and how to implement mediation by the Notary for the parties. The type of research used is an empirical legal research method because it directly examines several notaries in Malang City.

Notaries can mediate disputes without violating the code of ethics for notary office regulations, as stated in Chapter II, article 2 of the Notary Code of Ethics. A notary who carries out the function of a mediator can occur if the condition of the dispute or the parties have not found a mutual agreement. In a legal relationship regarding a legal act that they want to carry out, it is necessary to have a third party who helps to find a solution and find an agreement jointly representing the interests of the parties so that they can be resolved together

Determination of Development Policy Based on the Aggregation of thoughts of Legislative Members
Get PDFAs one of the regional government administrators, the position of DPRD (Provincial Legislatives Council) members is very strategic and critical in their relationship with the people and communities they represent. DPRD members accommodate and follow up on aspirations in the form of DPRD main ideas from voters (constituents) through a recess mechanism. From observations and interviews, the Malang Regency DPRD has carried out primary input from 3 elements of the Public Works Department: Highways, Human Settlements and Water Resources Public Works. Communication related to primary idea input has generally gone well.

This research shows that the process of aggregating the main ideas in the Malang Regency DPRD has gone well. However, according to several respondents, there are still inhibiting factors, such as the council's human resources from educational and professional backgrounds and the limited budget provided

Prospects of Hydropower in Himahchal Pradesh (India): A Case Study of Shanan Power Project
Get PDFThe present study has been conducted on the Shanan project, Joginder Nagar. Natural resources are useful raw materials that we obtain directly from nature at free of cost. They occur naturally, which means that human cannot make natural resource. Instead, we use and modify natural resources in different ways that are useful for us. Western Himalaya is full of natural resources, like water, minerals, forests etc. Apart from others, water can be considered as an important one. It is a renewal source of energy which is used in hydro power projects to make electricity. In electricity generation, Shanan power house is the first hydro-electric power station of India. This power house project designed and created by British Engineer Colonel B.C.Batty with the ruler of Joginder Nagar, Raja Joginder Sen. This power project was given to Punjab in1926 on a 99 year lease, which is finished in March 2024. Currently this power project is under the control of Punjab State Electricity Board. The whole revenue of this project goes to Punjab Government. The capacity of this project has been increased to 110MW. It is the cheapest mode of Electricity generation. The cost of per unit is nearly Rs. 0.26 Paisa while cost of generation from thermals is more than Rs. 3 per unit. As per information from Superintending Engineer of Shanan Power project, this plant generates 50 Crore units per annum. As per estimate from the PSPCL at present the cost of the project will not be less than Rs.1600 Crore. Nowadays the project is in very bad condition because Punjab govt. is not maintaining the project properly. HP can run it in a better way and it can also explore the possibilities of tourism on International Level. So it is the time to take up the matter with the HP government as well as with the Indian government
