5. Reduce the losses and damage further.
6. Leaving the basics needed to the implementation of rehabilitation and reconstruction activities in the context of development

C. Main Principles of Disaster Management

1. No two disasters are the same (there are no two on Alike license), although the type of disaster and the same location.

2. Effectiveness and efficiency in disaster management will be determined by the control of the characteristics of each disaster, and clarity of the key aspects as follows:

a. Target and other hazards that will occur
b. Local resources available
c. Forms of organization needed disaster management.
d. Planning fulfillment when the disaster occurred.
e. Actions must be done by sector and the insertion point in the cycle of disaster management (prevention, mitigation, preparedness, early warning, emergency response, restoration, rehabilitation and reconstruction).
f. Education, training, personnel management and development of a disaster continues.
g. Welfare personnel-personnel disaster.

3. The cash assistance is a form of disaster management the most good.

D. Disaster Management Mechanism

Disaster management mechanism consists of:

Internal or informal mechanisms, namely the elements in the location of the disaster, which generally carry the first and main function in disaster management and often called the natural disaster management mechanism, consisting of family, social organizations, informal (teaching, service death, the activities kegotong royongan, arisan and so forth) and the local community.

2. External or formal mechanism, the organization that deliberately formed for the purpose of disaster management, for example Indonesia is BAKORNAS PB, Satlak SATKORLAK PB and PB.

E. Social assistance is to support all:

1. Fulfillment of physical, mental and social disaster victims may be appropriate seoptimal actual local conditions.
2. Improving the ability, motivation and role of disaster victims in various activities, restoration, rehabilitation and reconstruction.

G. Implement Disaster Management Line of Social Assistance

1. Field of Social Assistance is one of the strategic aspects of disaster management.

2. Implementation of the field of social assistance to become part of disaster response can not be done and must be partially intact in one unit, which are interrelated because the approaches used in the field of social assistance penanggulaangan disaster management based on the disaster that divided the disaster management cycle, namely before, during and after.

3. Guidelines for implementing the field of social assistance in disaster management is part of the social policy (Social Policy) in which the general principles to determine the options and make decisions on the condition that no / not yet known or conditions that may occur in the future 4. Implementation of Social Assistance in the field of disaster prevention programs formulated in the form of disaster management field of social assistance.

5. Disaster management program of social assistance sectors include:

a. Social Assistance, which is shaped with the help and protection to focus on the impact of the disaster, temporary (Temporary Impact)
a. Social Rehabilitation, which shaped the physical and non-physical, with a focus on the impact of the disaster for the permanent (Permanent Impact)
b. Social empowerment, namely the form of strengthening and development with a focus on the impact of disasters for sustainable development (Sustainable Impact)

6. Results are expected from all over the field of disaster management activities of social assistance is fulfilling the needs of disaster victims to be able to live fairly.

7. So that the process of disaster management field of social assistance running the systemic and holistic approach must place the target and users as well as actors on the subject of the community itself. For the community needs to be improved capacity of their ability to manage itself more capable and potential that can be considered to support their own needs proportionally. In this case the role of government is only as a facilitator and regulator.

8. The role and responsibility of the people who played in the disaster response system should be in the government's policy for disaster management through CBDM Program (Community Based Disaster Management).

9. Some Reasons CBDM about the importance of Program

a. Coverage and extensive spread
b. The limited ability of the Government
c. The potential and resources of the community is very big but has not managed in a professional
d. The effectiveness of the implementation of disaster management with a decentralized system of government is to strengthen and expand the potential Front Liner as spearheads
e. The efficiency of resource mobilization assistance, access network systems and information and communication point of coordination can be done using the command system, especially when the emergency response / emergency to empower, and the place assigned the role of those key elements of the community who are trained to make decisions quickly and not subject to bureaucratic mechanisms.

10.Manfaat Program CBDM

a. Strengthening the psychological ties that will indirectly strengthen the emotional level of the individual
b. Lessen the level of dependency on government
c. Increasing the culture of mutual cooperation and togetherness d. Accelerating the process of action / reaction, especially when the disaster occurred
e. Makes it easier to equate the perception of risk / danger of disaster
f. Activate the potential and resources of local
g. Strengthening unity and national solidarity

11.Strategi Program CBDM

b. Setting a key person
c. Activities contain materials to increase the capacity of the community periodically through training, counseling, rehearsal and simulation .

Closing

Indicators of success of disaster management field of social assistance is determined by the role of the community itself, for all the activities in each region or regions will not be the same because it is affected by the situation, the environment and local culture. All the provisions / guidelines and rules related to disaster management field of social assistance should be applied, flexible and dynamic The main work of the most serious by the Government at this time is the "Main Set" The people from dependence to be independent in disaster response before help came from outside (to help them self) .

The Disaster Response System Paradigmatik

Written on 7:30 PM by wacana



Interview Arifin Purwakananta October 1st, 2008


So-talking style sidelines of a simple and unadorned often terlontar shock-shock. Creativity and fresh ideas, humorous man like this never interrupted and continues to flow. Broad interests. No wonder he became the champion and head of the class in the school, climb mountains, race adzan win, play musical instruments Flute, studying violin in a self-taught, became assistant lecturer at the campus, never to become champion of our international invitation Up Shield. Activist charity that had become trainers techniques creative thinking when a student of Faculty of Engineering, University of Indonesia, this is always skittish in contributing thoughts about various things. Responding to the issues of disaster, for example, the idea of the concept Kampung Disaster Response, which was diseminarkan at Al-Azhar Islamic University of Jakarta in 2006 and received a positive response from participants of the seminar. By rekaulang national disaster response system through efforts to bring law and the This is still digodog House, a social activist who was the Director of the Institute of Management Zakah this, toss ideas around the national disaster response system that paradigmatik and the role of strategic management organization charity (OPZ) in the system.
Disaster response system in Indonesia is not yet integrated and weak in its implementation.
Arifin smile when this get to him. He was responding to the positive. "It needs time and collective wisdom to create a national system of good," he said, opening the discussion. He hopes that Indonesia will better handle the disaster.
Menururt Arifin, the fact that Indonesia's geographical position to become the center of the ring of fire, the vessel is the world's countries with a potential disaster. World record Krakatau eruption and tsunami that swallowed hundreds of thousands of lives and perhaps the super-volcano eruption in North Sumatra and the vibrations felt throughout the world. Not to disasters such as a small earthquake and landslides, fires, floods or even a disaster such as social unrest, etc.. This situation will make Indonesia has rich experience with various kinds of disaster. Sepahit anything, this can be seen as one of our potential in developing disaster response system is good, certainly through the system and the most advanced technology. "She is a world will learn menangangani disaster and minimize the sacrifice of our experience," Arifin connect optimistic.
Marut vulgar Handling Disasters
Arifin assess the handling of the disaster in Indonesia is still colored by a central command structure jelasan and regional infrastructure agencies handling disaster is a unit of ad hoc experience of the poor, and a preference jelasan decision making of a disaster is considered a national disaster or not, again, this berimbas policy on the provision of central funds. If dirunut started from the lack of rule of law and good umbrella. However this can be improved if the leadership at the national level and in the regions they hold by the back up system information and making decisions that strong. Furthermore kecarut-marutan handling of the disaster in Indonesia also is blowing from the runway and the paradigm of thinking that long and we should leave. Kemandegan paradigm for handling this disaster, which culminate on mandulnya entire program that is handling the disaster.
Kiss goodbye her dream about who should take the main role in handling a national disaster. Is it a form must dikomandoi agency coordination by the President / vice president or a permanent institution at the department. This debate must not stop here. Brings in a committee or agency can handle a disaster of such complex. There are still many form of alternative systems for example, a similar concept HANKAMRATA (defense and security of the people), which means that the system that involve the public in handling emergency conditions. As an example. Not yet on the policy of providing funds and disaster management, coordination issues and so forth. "Kecarutmarutan handling of the disaster became just the second disaster following the disaster actually," Arifin information. Not surprisingly, instead of handling the disaster, we often heard news of the officials involved in corruption even disaster funds.
Disaster Response System, which Paradigmatik
"We need a new disaster response system that paradigmatik," Arifin row, this time with a serious face shape. Arifin understand this idea as a way of perceiving ketanggap-bencanaan with a new way that is more comprehensive and integrated. This concept is considered all the dimensions that may be related, such as human, time, resources, cultural, economic, geososial, technology, etc., in handling the disaster.
For example, we must consider the human as the subject of all this disaster response system. This means better management, disaster response professionals, volunteers, and the victim is the same player from the main discourse of disaster response. This will result in disaster response system that will place the position of the human role in the operation. Awareness of the dimensions of time will cause the system of early prevention and disaster control, emergency response and disaster recovery.
Therefore, we also need to consider the dimensions of resources or other form of cultural, economic, etc. geososial. with a more comprehensive and terinstegrasi. Such as to disaster prevention and READINESS: we need to strengthen the concept of early warning system that a modern, strengthening the culture and folklore of disaster response, planologi and tataruang the victims and prevent the creation of emergency facilities if necessary, to protect the architecture of the building, the social institution, even the concept of education the concept of economic social care and disaster response will be to prevent or reduce as a result of the disaster. "This idea can be tested and didetilkan become a disaster response system alternative, the team needs to contain some friends who are experts in the field and want to care," Arifin information.
Get the opportunity from the wallet Dhuafa to manage the handling of natural disasters landslides in various areas such as Jasinga west Java, the earthquake in Bundaberg, the earthquake in Sukabumi, SR 7.2 earthquake in Bengkulu, Jakarta flood, tsunami in the Banggai Islands Sulteng, flooding in Bundibugyo said, during the between 2000 through 2004, making Arifin have hours of flying sizeable handling of the disaster. He always involved in the team pengananan such as the tsunami disaster in Aceh, Yogyakarta earthquake and the Sumatera earthquake early March 2007.
Organization Manager of the role of Zakah
To respond to the fact OPZ less signigfikannya role in disaster response for this, Arifin who served as General Manager of Resources Mobilization Baznas Wallet Dhuafa is considered it as a process. "Although impressed sporadically and independently, OPZ role in the handling of the disaster this time can not be small," continued. We see the reality in almost all disaster and the humanitarian tragedy in the last 5 years is always just suck OPZ and philanthropic institution based Islamic down to help others. Some even OPZ establish special units of the disaster and diligently to open the wallet and humanitarian disaster. "As a potential, OPZ have the strength as a strategic part in the important concept of disaster response," continued the father of two daughters of this.
Potential is Arifin is the presence of social infrastructure including the ability to mobilize community volunteers who are owned by OPZ in the role as a human institution, the availability of public funds as a backup for disaster management and preparedness of OPZ in the post-disaster assistance community in a long period of time in the role as amil charity. The last is the creation of facilities Baitul Maal the economic locomotive social security system in the community, create a system that captures the public. Three potential for this to become a strategic function OPZ. So OPZ not only mengalang funds and submitted to the location of the disaster.
Handling of the disaster response with the involvement of the community as a subject is a recent concept, and mustinya OPZ institutions, including the most ready to implement it in the. Living in the future if the national OPZ-OPZ able mengkordinir institutions so that they become a more significant force, "here later FOZ can play a role," Arifin close further discussion. [p]

Disaster Assistance funds from the Overseas Must Through BNPB

0

Written on 7:07 PM by wacana

On the one hand, there is a ban on political activity and run security. But on the other hand, the Government provides insurance protection to foreign workers.

Indonesia is a country prone to disaster! Warning that repeatedly echoed, especially after the Aceh tsunami disaster a few years ago. AB Susanto management experts stressed that the country as a disaster, the people of Indonesia can assign. But it does not mean submission to bersimpuh without action. Disaster and it must be faced, prevented, and the impact be minimized.




When the introduction to his book gives Disaster Management Affairs in disaster-prone, AB Susanto said that the handling of the disaster can not be relied on spontaneity. Spontaneity means without the plan. Therefore, the Government must manage well with the disaster planning that well.

In the context that the government finally issued a package of disaster management policy in the form of Government Regulation (PP). Third, regulation is the PP. 21 of the Disaster Relief Organization, PP. 22 on Funding and Management of Disaster Assistance, and the PP. 23 on the Role of International Institutions and Foreign Institutions Non-Government in Disaster Relief. Third PP was published 2008 and has been effective since two months ago. The umbrella of this policy is the Law. 24 Year 2007 on Disaster Relief.

One of the interesting is highlighted for the PP. 23/2008. At the time of the tsunami Aceh and Nias, both foreign institutions and international organizations of foreign non-government organization (NGO foreign) race-race help. Until now, impressions overseas institutions that are still visible in the earth Serambi Mecca. But not clear how much money is the flow of foreign aid since the tsunami disaster until now. Understandably, some foreign agencies directly working with their partners in Indonesia.

Now, if later repeated similar disasters, both foreign institutions and international organizations and foreign NGOs can not directly vain provide assistance to local NGOs. They also can not the road alone because there are obligations to adjust the policy of the government version of disaster management.

PP 23 firmly stated: "In terms of international institutions or non-government institutions of foreign assistance funds must be delivered or sent directly via BNPB." BNPB is National Disaster Relief Agency, which is non department. In the eyes of Aminuddin Kirom, Project Officer of Community Disaster Relief Indonesia (MPBI), the provisions of these policies in line with the spirit of a door in disaster management. This policy is intended to avoid any assistance that is not controlled and potentially misused.

In addition to the assistance fund should send directly to the account BNPB, international agencies and foreign NGOs is still burdened a line of other obligations. For example, prepare proposals, create and sign MoU, plus a work plan. In preparing the proposal, foreign institutions have to consult with representatives of Indonesia overseas. Questions agreement, but must be carried out under the coordination BNPB, involving Deplu. Meanwhile, concerning the work plan, BNPB can be arranged together with international agencies and foreign NGOs. This requirement, a requirement could actually diterobos if conditions in the emergency response.

If in such conditions, international agencies and foreign NGOs to the list of the number of personnel, logistics, equipment, location and activities. Soon, the approval or rejection of foreign agencies is the former head of BNPB. If approved, the PP 23, the Government will provide protection for foreign workers to run its work in Indonesia. However, not explained in more detailed form of protection referred to.

Even if protected, the Government has to provide unequivocal line. The foreign workers are prohibited from conducting activities that background or political security. What categories of activities that enter the political and security determined by the Head of BNPB with intelligence and security agencies. One that is not less important, international agencies and foreign NGOs should consider and respect the social culture and religion, local residents where they work.

World Food Industry

Written on 8:58 PM by wacana

ImageBloomsbury Publishing Plc., Great Britain, 2008. Paperback, ₤12.99, 390 pp. Available at Amazon, US$17.16. For Paul Roberts, the end of food, like the end of days, is just a matter of time. It could be avian influenza, which he calls only one of a “number of bullets that could plausibly strike the modern food system. A sharp spike in the price of oil, a series of extreme weather events, an outbreak of some new plant disease, the depletion of some critical aquifer, all would send massive and potentially disrupting shock waves through a system that, despite advances in areas such as bio-security, is losing more and more of its overall flexibility and resilience by the week.”

In exhaustive study of the world’s industrial food system that took him from the United States to China to Indonesia to Africa to Russia, Roberts, the author of the critically –acclaimed The End of Oil, paints a picture of looming catastrophe, of a system that has grown dangerously distorted, with perhaps a billion people starving at one end of it and 1.5 billion overweight at the other. Roberts blames industrial agriculture, which he charges is depleting soils, emptying underground aquifers, overloading the planet with both fertilizers and pesticides, turning more and more forest – the planet’s green lung – into farmland. Even without a pandemic or natural catastrophe, Roberts writes, it is only going to take perhaps 10 to 20 years before the world’s expanding population faces disaster. What he calls the epicentre of a perfect storm is probably going to be Asia. The mathematics appear to be inexorable for China and India in particular, both of which are demanding more protein in their diets. As he points out, it takes seven kilograms of feed to produce a single kilo of meat. As the Chinese and Indians take increasingly to a meat diet, the ability of the world to produce it will be unbearably strained. Already, vast areas of tropical rainforest, the world’s green lung, are being levelled for pasture. As rainforest comes down it produces growing amounts of carbon dioxide. Indonesia is the world’s largest contributor to greenhouse gases despite the fact that it has little industry and relatively few combustion engines. “Although the catalyst could occur anywhere on the planet,” he writes, “Asia’s massive population, the rapid growth of its food sector and the yawing gap between that sector and the capabilities of its medical and political systems suggest that Asia’s odds of being the lead domino are quite high.” In just the last couple of months, China has proven the concerns over its food system are tragically real. At least 53,000 people were stricken from milk and infant formula which had been adulterated by melamine. As many as 13,000 people have been hospitalized with kidney stones and renal failure. It wasn’t fly-by-night companies that added melamine to their milk products. It was such widely known and respected companies as Mengniu Dairy, Sanlu Group, Yili and others. In one fascinating chapter, Roberts describes the introduction of antibiotics into animal feed, which began in the 1950s, when it was discovered that fish below a Lederle Laboratories facility on the Hudson River were gaining both size and weight after feeding on the laboratory’s discharge, which contained tetracycline. In the wake of that discovery, Roberts writes …”the tetracycline was treating the intestinal infections that are routine in closely confined farm animals, and …calories that normally would have been consumed by the chicks' immune systems were going instead to make bigger muscles and bones….Other researchers soon confirmed that low, subtherapeutic doses of tetracycline increased growth in turkeys, calves, and pigs by as much as 50 percent, and later studies showed that antibiotics made cows give more milk and caused pigs to have more litters, more piglets per litter, and piglets with larger birth weights”. >From that point on, the use of antibiotics, particularly penicillins, tetracyclines, macrolides, lincosamides, streptogramins, aminoglycosides, and sulfonamides, soared upwards in animal feeds. It is estimated by the Union of Concerned Scientists that farm animals in the US are fed 24.6 million pounds of antibiotics per year. Of the medically important antibiotics used as feed additives, 69 percent are fed to hogs, 19 percent to broiler chickens and 12 percent to beef cattle, according to the Environmental Defense Fund in June 2005. That raises the seeming inevitability that as microbes mutate to find their way around all those antibiotics, superbugs will be created – and, in fact, Roberts writes – already are, resulting in almost unstoppable pandemics. But in addition to the possible creation of superbugs from all those antibiotics, the larger question is what industrial farming is doing to the earth itself in terms of the destruction of topsoil, the elimination of noncommercial species of fruits and vegetables and seeming scores of other problems. In particular, Roberts finds a systemic disparity in the whole agriculture sphere. The big chains – retailers like supermarkets and other outlets – keep cutting the prices they pay to farmers because their margins are so small. The only way growers can make it is by increasing production and reducing per-unit costs, which adds to the amount of food produced, which leads to cheaper prices, which causes the retailers to cut prices, generating a vicious circle. There are so many things wrong with the current industrial food chain that it appears virtually impossible to know where to start to clean it up. Roberts’ answer doesn’t seem to be a viable answer – refashioning the food economy around a more sustainable model. Only one country, Roberts writes, has found a way to do that, and that’s Communist Cuba, which was forced to do so after the fall of the Soviet Union and the oil, fertilizers, pesticides and other elements of large-scale agribusiness that the Communist bloc had supplied disappeared. Cuba, at that point, was forced to radically transform its agricultural system, de-industrializing the system. State-owned farms were broken into cooperatives and hundreds of thousands of workers were reallocated to jobs on farms. Because of the lack of fuel, farmers switched from tractors to beasts of burden. Crops were rotated and interplanted and pest management was integrated. “The results,” he writes, “have almost been Chinalike. Although Cubans are still short of meat and dairy products, per capita intake has recovered so completely that the country now leads most developing nations in nearly all nutrition and food-security categories.” But doing that required El Jefe – Fidel Castro, one of the world’s last dictators, who could order hundreds of thousands out of the factories and onto the farms. It would be difficult, as Roberts acknowledges, for a country to mobilize its people without a one-party state filled with political prisons. And despite its agricultural model, there are still thousands of people taking to the boats to get the 90 miles across to the United States. Just last week, Cuba once again had to ration food in the wake of a devastating tropical storm. What Roberts touches on only glancingly is the real problem -- the world is rapidly becoming overburdened with too many people to feed, no matter what agricultural system is in place. China earned the world’s condemnation by instituting its Draconian one-child policy, but as a Chinese official once told reporters, what if they hadn’t done it? Half a billion people haven’t been born because of that policy, and China is largely food-sufficient, at least for now. It has taken a long time for Malthus to be right, but it is finally starting to look like the capacity of agriculture to transform itself is strained to the limit, and now Malthus indeed is starting to be right. Not even Dracon himself could force the rest of world into adopting such a policy as the Chinese have. But the embrangled agricultural policy that Roberts describes so well in this book is a symptom of overpopulation, of having to feed too many people on too few resources. The breakdown in the system that appears inevitable is going to come about because there are too many mouths to feed, no matter what system feeds them.
