This paper examines shifts in society in response to tourism development in Lombok Utara. This research scientifically demonstrates the emergence of new problems due to the economic and ecological impact of tourism and the breakdown of tradition. Fishbone analysis was used to map a variety of issues from trusted sources through direct observation and in-depth interviews. Findings show that a gap exists between expected and actual economic advantages as farmers and fishermen transition to tourism. The skill deficit and competitiveness brought about only a minor effect on the prosperity of host communities, even if a large economic incentive was generated by the government from taxes. The ecological damage resulting from human activity (abrasion, rubbish, energy consumption, coral reef destruction) will be detrimental for future generations. Traditions of the host communities are also threatened.

Cultural Strength

Indonesia is an archipelago country with a sea larger than the mainland, so it is undeniable that in Indonesia there are many fisherman settlements. Often fishermen settlements in Indonesia are marginalized in the development of maritime and service industries and even become victims of the activities of the utilization of coastal areas by the private sector engaged in tourism, industry, and services. The fisherman settlement community is not getting a positive impact from the development, therefore this study aims so that the fisherman settlement community can get a positive impact from the development of the surrounding area. This research takes a case study in the fisherman settlements of Kingking and Karangsari in Tuban Regency, East Java. The approach used in this research is the urban assemblage approach to reveal socio-cultural knits as a cultural force that shapes the sustainability of the place. The urban assemblage approach will be supported by search methods which will then be analyzed descriptively qualitatively. The search was carried out through literature review and field surveys. This research presents the results in the form of a mapping of knits between culture, social, the economy as the cultural strength of the Kingking and Karangsari fisherman settlements with the surrounding tourist areas. The results of this study can be considered by the government and local communities in planning the development of coastal areas or fisherman settlements into tourist destinations.

Average Consumption

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate annual consumption during 2004-2013 of diazepam, an essential medicine which is controlled under the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances in Indonesia and to investigate factors influencing its use in health facilities.Methods: This was a case study with quantitative and qualitative approaches. Annual consumption was calculated from the quantity of exports and imports. The use of diazepam was calculated from consumption deducted by 20% buffer stock. The consumption and use of diazepam were presented in kilogram and also in defined daily doses for statistical purposes (S-DDD). In-depth interviews were conducted to investigate factors that influence the use of diazepam. Triangulation was conducted to confirm the qualitative and quantitative findings.Results: The annual average consumption in 2004-2006 was 530 kg. Furthermore, it decreased 38% during 2011-2013 to 329 kg. Calculated use of diazepam also decreased. The average consumption for the 10-year period of diazepam was 470 kg, and the calculated use was 376 kg (0.45 S-DDD). Considering the approximate need of diazepam to treat various health problems, its use should ideally be around 1-2 S-DDD. Therefore, the calculated use of diazepam was considered too low as confirmed by frequent stockouts. The interviews revealed that among the factors influencing its use was its limited production. There was an increased use of alprazolam, but it was unlikely to compensate for the diazepam stockouts.Conclusion: Consumption and use of diazepam for medical purposes in Indonesian decreased over 10 years, and stockouts are often reported. The government should improve its availability and correct impediments for adequate production and supply of diazepam.

Purpose The paper aims to explore the development of the halal industry in Thailand. It endeavours to investigate the main factors behind the country’s success as one of the largest exporters of halal-certified foods and products in the Southeast Asian region, in spite of the fact that Thailand is a non-Muslim-majority country. Only 4.3 per cent of the 69-million population of Thailand is Muslims. Design/methodology/approach In articulating the issue objectively, qualitative research method was adopted. This paper used structured literature study by analysing various subjects of halal pertaining to Thailand’s halal sector. At the same time, several in-depth interviews with the corresponding halal authorities in Thailand, as well as site visits, were also conducted. We also undertook observations in several sites in Thailand to analyse the issue further. Findings Findings from the research show that the strong presence of Thailand in the global halal industry is because of its bustling tourism industry that helps to bolster the country’s halal branding, its uniformity of halal definition and standards and effective support to the local SMEs. Practical implications This research implies that the standardisation of halal in a country is imperative in the Muslim-majority or Muslim-minority countries. This study gives a benchmark for the non-Muslim-majority countries which endeavour to embark on the halal industry. Muslim-minority counties that envision to succeed in the global halal market could emulate Thailand’s approach in branding itself as a recognised non-Muslim-majority country in producing certified halal foods and products. Originality/value The paper provides guidelines and standards for Muslim-minority countries that envision success in the global halal market.

<p>Three-way or tri-sector partnerships were proposed in the World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg (2002) as a way to reduce poverty and achieve development targets by 2015 (Warner & Sullivan, 2006). These partnerships are between government, civil society and the private sector, and there is not much research on how such partnerships work in the development world. The purpose of this research is to explore the effectiveness of partnerships between Cambodia’s government, NGOs, and the private sector in Technical and Vocational Education Training (TVET), particularly from the NGOs’ perspective.  The research methodology used in this study was a qualitative case study. Data was collected from in-depth interviews as well as document analysis, such as NGO’s annual reports, project agreements with Cambodia’s government, and other related documents from three NGOs working in the TVET sector in Phnom Penh. This research used Creswell’s framework (2014) for qualitative data analysis and interpretation.  The findings conclude that the tri-sector partnerships within one NGO to that of another NGO are quite different depending on the level of trust and interdependence of the parties. These partnerships between government, the business sector and NGOs are based upon the belief that collaboration brings benefits to each actor. From the business’s side, the benefits include the improvement of industrial production processes and productivity due to an increased supply of well-skilled staff. From the NGOs’ perspective, the benefits include accessing enterprises’ equipment and expertise. The government provides decentralised powers to local government to facilitate the working process of the NGOs and the private sector. These findings provide insight into Cambodia’s tri-sector TVET partnerships, making a contribution to understandings and knowledge of NGOs in TVET and their partners.</p>

Moreover, it is in the Northern part of Thailand, which is not a popular destination compared to the Northern and the Southern parts of the country.
