The Effectiveness of Tri Hita Karana Based Traditional Village Management in Covid-19 Prevention at Bali

Traditional villages are original autonomous villages that control the self-government wheels within that are still alive and their position is recognized in the government system of the Indonesian Republic. The Covid-19 pandemic that is currently happening is causing an economic slowdown and a decline in public health. Bali Regional Government issued a policy in Bali Governor Regulation Number 15 of 2020 regarding the Policy for the Acceleration of Handling Covid-19 in the Province of Bali by reallocating a Traditional Village Fund of Rp. 300,000,000.00 for the response to Covid-19 by involving the soldiers and manners of the Traditional Village. The effectiveness of the Traditional Village Fund management is based on local wisdom, where the principles of Tri Hita Karana (Parahyangan, Pawongan, and Palemahan) as a philosophical foundation that are held in carrying out every activity, program, and policy are the focus of this research. This research uses a qualitative research method. Data were taken directly from field studies and literature studies. The implementation of Tri Hita Karana provides a new color in financial management in Indonesia. Technical implementation, reporting, prosecution of alleged fraud, and consultative accountability manner and rich in local wisdom values upheld by Bendesa, Prajuru Desa Adat, and Krama Desa positively impact influencing the community mindset and behavior in complying with existing regulations or policies set. However, it cannot be denied that there are still contradictions between Bali’s traditional village governance in generating accountable and transparent management of funds.

Tambang dan Masyarakat: Dampak Ekonomi dan Kesehatan Dumping Tailing bagi Masyarakat Pesisir Lingkar Tambang

The gold mining company PTAMNT, which operates in West Sumbawa, discharges its mine waste into the middle of the sea using the deep sea tailing placement (DSTP) method. For local people, the presence of foreign goods is seen as dangerous for their economic life and health. The toxins in it can contaminate sea water and fish. Even though their life depends a lot on the sea. Therefore, society rejects its existence. This study questions the level of acceptance of the local community as well as the economic and health impacts of tailings dumping. This study uses a qualitative method, by putting forward case studies. Data collection used the method of observation, in-depth interviews, focused group discussion, and document searches. Initially, the economic life and health of the community were considered to be affected by tailings dumping. However, local people's understanding turned out to be dynamic. When the knowledge and experience of the community increases and is in different contexts, the perspective on tailings (DSTP) changes and can accept it. Their knowledge and experience shows that tailings dumping using the DSTP method does not have any (bad) impacts on both economic life and health. It was understood later that the real big problem for the local community was not tailings dumping and its impacts, but rather the existence of the mining company itself as a whole which was seen as not always giving significant meaning to daily economic and social life.
