ABSTRACTSerang Regency in Banten Province is a multi-prone area of natural disaster, with the greatest potential disasters particularly like floods, landslides, earthquakes, tidal waves, tsunamis, and abrasion. At the time of the Banten tsunami at December 2018, Bulakan Village, Cinangka Subdistrict, Serang Regency was a tsunami affected area that was classified as quite severe. Natural disasters are real threats with non-military threats.The role of relevant ministries/government institutions as the main element in non-military defense also needs attention. The aim of this study is to find the root of the problems and also the solutions related to non-military defense in confronting the real threat in the form of a tsunami disaster that struck the Serang Regency. This research is using a qualitative method supported by the case-study method. All the information obtained from the defined informants was analyzed by qualitative analysis technique. This research also aims to analyze the implementation of coastal area empowerment strategies and institutional synergy mechanism implemented at Bulakan Vilage, Cinangka Subdistrict,  Serang Regency, Banten Province.The results showed that the empowerment of coastal areas in the form of institutional synergy in Serang District was carried out with a tsunami disaster management plan based on empowerment of coastal areas such as the development of coastal community disaster awareness, and compiling sustainable  plans for a tsunami disaster. Some factors that influence the implementation of the coastal areas empowering strategy in Serang Regency in facing the tsunami disaster are community supports and good communication among the stakeholders.ABSTRAK           Kabupaten Serang di Provinsi Banten merupakan wilayah multirawan bencana, dengan potensi bencana  terbesar yang meliputi banjir, tanah longsor, gempa, gelombang pasang, tsunami, dan abrasi. Pada saat tsunami yang menerjang Selat Sunda pada Desember 2018 lalu, Desa Bulakan, Kecamatan Cinangka, Kabupaten Serang merupakan daerah terdampak tsunami yang tergolong cukup parah. Bencana alam merupakan ancaman nyata berdimensi ancaman nir-militer.

Role Of Information

The role of information technology (IT) in managing disasters is increasingly being recognized. The Healing Touch project was started after the tsunami disaster in Tamilnadu to address the healthcare needs of the survivors through IT. Specifically; it provided mental health support to the victims near their place of residence. This project has been different from other telemedicine projects because: It was sponsored and managed entirely by NGOs. The local community and local NGOs were directly trained to manage there own health problems after the natural disaster. Success was linked to the intensive pre and post execution work done. We believe that preparation and involvement of people is the key to success in most IT projects. Some problems we faced were related to a general lack of awareness and nonpenetration of IT in the community we served. If people are using IT in their day to day work; adoption of telemedicine and other e-services will be far simpler after a disaster.

Media Practices

In news media of late, much has been touted about the agency of social and mobile media in the events of political uprising or at times of natural disasters and crisis management. While these events did not become events because of social media, the media did affect how we experienced the situation. This leads us to ask, Just how helpful are social mobile media in maintaining relationships in times of crisis management, and how, if at all, do they depart from previous media and methods? Drawing from case studies conducted with participants living in Tokyo at the time of the horrific events surrounding Japan’s earthquake and tsunami disaster of March 11, 2011 (called 3.11), this article reflects on the role of new media in helping, if at all, people manage crisis and grief. The authors argue that while social media provide new channels for affective cultures in the form of mobile intimacy, they also extend on earlier media practices and rituals such as the postcard.
