The Concept of Sustainable Development

Within a certain time range, development is a continual (sustainably) process. Short-term development doesn’t happen in the real world. Consequently, it is necessary to have the proper ideas and plans, but also the right people who are devoted, equipped with talents, and willing to work hard, backed by money in synergy cooperative efforts to reach the development objectives.

When it comes to the concept of sustainable development, though, it’s all about ensuring that the progress made by a society in a certain time period can be sustained for future generations to benefit from. Indeed, this success should be maintained in order to improve and broaden the value of the advantages.

With regard to rural development, it is imperative that rural populations be involved. Subjects of research and development Any idea or program, no matter how well-intentioned, will fail to achieve its goals if its target population is excluded and seen as “all-fed,” regardless of how well-intentioned it may be.

Before putting ideas and concepts into plans, it is vital to have a crisp and clear vision of the village and its residents, keeping in mind that growth is a constant process. An accurate assessment of the village’s topographical, climatic, and demographic characteristics as well as a detailed inventory of the village’s natural resources may be used to achieve this goal.

Regardless of the state of a village, there is little doubt that it still has the potential to be explored, expanded, and improved. To meet this challenge, the government, the business sector, and anybody else concerned about President Joko Widodo’s acceptance of Alibaba founder Jack Ma to the Bogor Palace must come together. At first, it was exhilarating to see that despite all the flaws and difficulties, the great objectives of creating the community would be delayed by misgivings.

However, more essential than any of these factors is the need to foster rural populations’ trust and faith in the topic of development. Assuring them that, regardless of their educational or social background, they are open to and capable of accepting new ideas and influences that will help them and their surroundings progress toward a better state.

The CEO of Alibaba, Jack Ma, was up in poverty, and if he can be an example of the spirit in blowing the spirit of rural development, Ma was a poor child. Many times before launching the world’s biggest online retailer Alibaba, Alibaba founder Jack Ma was turned down for employment.

Ma has a tremendous desire to share with others, particularly those who live in rural regions and are considered to be impoverished. However, he doesn’t share his wealth, but he does share his accomplishments. Assuming the locals are likewise willing and able to advance, this proceeds forward.

Jim Yong Kim (@JimYongKim), the President of the World Bank, had an interview with Quartz in which he described Ma’s unique method for tackling rural development difficulties. Rural communities in China that do not have an internet connection are specifically targeted by him, and he provides the necessary infrastructure to allow locals to establish and grow his businesses.

If a hamlet has roads and mobile phone coverage, Ma’s philosophy states, that’s all there is to it. Ma was surprised to find that mobile phone service was available in almost every community she visited.

I went out and sought out a few ladies who had mastered the art of computer usage. According to Kim, I handed them a computer and they started accepting orders from the whole community.

People in the area were very grateful to the two or three ladies that came to their aid. At example, a washing machine may be ordered for a reasonable price online. It’s less expensive than purchasing in the city.

The most essential thing is that a business atmosphere has evolved in the little community and has spread to neighbouring areas. Trucks from the town provide products and messengers to and from the settlement. Now, order services are available in nearby communities and even in other provinces.

Kim praised Ma for creating a fundamental shift in the development methodology. Most of the people in these communities are ex-farmers who have returned after being unable to find work in the city.

Kim added that Ma had personally urged him to help spread the “virus” of business from the village to other regions of the globe, including Africa, South Asia, and Latin America, after the remarkable success of China’s rural development model transformation.

Indonesia is one of the most populous and wealthy countries in the world. More than 714 tribes speak more than 1,100 regional languages across the nation’s 17,100 islands, making it the world’s fourth most populated country. The natural resources of Indonesia are plentiful. With a coastline of 99,093 kilometers (second only to Canada’s), it contains eight World Heritage cultural sites, and its natural beauty is unparalleled.

Indonesia’s population was 238.5 million in 2010, according to Bappenas figures, and is expected to reach 318.7 million by 2045. Rural regions are home to 50.36 percent of the population, while urban areas are home to 49.64 percent.

With an estimate of 72.8 years of life expectancy by 2045, life expectancy was reported at 69.8 in 2010. It is predicted that the reliance ratio would fall from 51.1 percent in 2010 to 50.2 percent in 2045.

There were a total of 50.5 percent of people of working age in 2010.
Indonesia now has the biggest working-age population in Southeast Asia (41 percent). As a result, the reliance ratio is expected to fall to 46.9 percent by 2028–2031.

Human-centered development, balanced and quality population increase, use of demographic benefits (particularly for boosting economic output), urbanization management, and comprehensive and sustainable social protection are envisaged as a result of these demographic circumstances.

There is a lot of hard work, commitment, and ingenuity involved in making these dreams come reality. The vast majority of people reside in rural regions, where policy is still mostly absent. According to the 2014 Bappenas statistics, there were 20,167 underdeveloped villages, 51,022 developing villages, and 2,904 independent villages in Indonesia (3.92 percent). It’s also a problem to make the rural workforce, which consists of 59.49 million individuals who graduated from elementary school, an educated and competent workforce.

By establishing an internet company foundation in rural China, Jack Ma’s beliefs and actions may not always be appropriate, but they may be applied to communities throughout the globe. The most important aspect of Ma’s work, however, is that he has the boldness and imagination to include rural residents in the implementation of innovative rural development ideas and initiatives.

President Joko Widodo’s Indonesian administration has been constant in its attempts at promoting rural development via the active participation of villagers under his leadership. Policy initiatives have been implemented to support the Nawacita (9 Agenda’s third goal, which is to construct Indonesia from the periphery by enhancing regions and villages within the framework of the Unitary State.

A number of programs and policies have met their goals, and some have even surpassed their goals, but there is still a lot of work to be done.

The government has mapped 74,957 villages across the country, focusing on the most vulnerable and at-risk areas, including 270 rural areas, 122 disadvantaged areas, 619 transmigration areas, 54 food insecure regions, 41 post-conflict regions, 58 small island and outlying districts, 90 disaster-prone regions, and 187 priority border locations.
The Ministry of Villages, Development of Disadvantaged Regions and Transmigration (Kemendes PDTT), under the leadership of Eko P Sandjojo, has identified four priority activities, namely: Leading Rural Area Products (Prukades), Village Owned Enterprises (B), and Rural Infrastructure Development (RID).

The Village Fund Policy is critical to the implementation of various programs and activities. The goal of village funds is to improve the lives of rural residents, which has a positive effect on decreasing poverty.

IDR 280.3 million per village in 2015, IDR 643.6 million in 2016, and IDR 800.4 million in 2017 and 2018 were the village fund’s totals in 2017. Because of this, the nominal disbursement of the village fund climbed from IDR 20.67 trillion in 2015, Rp 46.98 trillion in 2016, and Rp 60 trillion in 2017 and 2018 as well.

As of A.D. 2017, the Village Fund’s absorption rate was 82.72% for 2015 (74,093 villages), 97.65% for 2016 (74,754 villages), and 98.544% for 2017 (74.910 villages). 74,957 villages had an absorption rate of 80.67% as of A.D. 2017.

How to Keep Up with The Swift Currents of Globalization

A few years ago, President Joko Widodo said that the rivalry between nations is becoming more intense. In his remarks, President Joko Widodo emphasized the necessity of fostering a competitive environment. The President warned us that the global economy would undergo a fundamental shift in the near future. Even global political and socioeconomic connections have shifted. According to the President, the adage no longer holds true when it comes to large nations defeating smaller ones. Countries that are sluggish, on the other hand, will be left behind by those who are quick. The President’s instruction basically tells us how to move and operate fast and intelligently in the middle of a folding globe.

One way that Indonesia can keep up with the rapid pace of globalization, according to the President’s mandate, is via the Village Law. As a result, Nawacita, Indonesia’s President Joko Widodo’s Nawacita, welcomed him with a rousing applause. As a result, the Village Law’s dynamic force may be used to construct Indonesia’s empowerment and sovereignty from the village. When Indonesia’s Village Law came into effect, the dust of centralized and decentralized Indonesian developmentism was lifted off Indonesia’s villages.

The New Order’s 32-year policy of centralized administration of national development was only able to benefit the areas that were near to power and the economic center of growth. In addition, the development does not extend to rural locations, let alone communities. Later, the idea of centralization was replaced by decentralization in 2000. Since fiscal management of development has been fragmented and regionalized, it has not been successful in raising welfare, particularly in the countryside. It is now time for Indonesia’s villages to show that they are capable of “Building Indonesia” when the Village Law placed national development in their hands. We’re back in the village, and things are looking up.

The economy is one area where global rivalry is expected to intensify in the future. For the sake of the country’s economy, the Village Law has infused communities with a tremendous amount of dynamism. As a result of these efforts, villages have the ability to take charge of their natural resources and use them to the benefit of their residents. The capacity of the village to develop local economic institutions capable of producing economic commodities on a big scale, as well as boosting the competitiveness of selling their products to the global trade stage, is of course essential to this more harsh economic rivalry.

The town is rich in raw resources, but why are we always inundated with commercial goods from other nations? An important factor is that we innovate at every stage of the economic production chain with regard to the management of “speed” and “acceleration”. Our goal is to continue to engage with villages in Indonesia on translating the Village Law into a strategic policy framework so that it may be used as a guide for implementing priority programs that will help achieve our country’s goals of building Indonesia from a village.

Rural EKOnomics II may be able to show the ministry’s performance and what looks to be a really honest depiction of data. However, we feel that a really noble evaluation of our work in the development of the village remains in the hands of the community and the community. As a result, I encourage all readers to continue to be critical of our performance in implementing the Village Law and to continue to give us with criticism. So, thank you and have a great time reading.

Cara Mengikuti Derasnya Arus Globalisasi

Populasi Indonesia adalah 238,5 juta pada tahun 2010 dan diperkirakan akan mencapai 318,7 juta pada tahun 2045, menurut perkiraan Bappenas 2018. Beberapa tahun lalu, Presiden Joko Widodo mengatakan bahwa persaingan antar bangsa semakin intens. Dalam sambutannya, Presiden Joko Widodo menekankan perlunya menumbuhkan lingkungan yang kompetitif. Presiden mengingatkan kita bahwa ekonomi global akan mengalami perubahan mendasar dalam waktu dekat.

Instruksi Presiden pada dasarnya memberitahu kita bagaimana untuk bergerak dan beroperasi dengan cepat dan cerdas di tengah dunia lipat. Salah satu cara agar Indonesia dapat mengikuti derasnya arus globalisasi, sesuai amanat Presiden, adalah melalui UU Desa. Alhasil, Nawacita, Nawacita Presiden Indonesia Joko Widodo, menyambutnya dengan tepuk tangan meriah. Akibatnya, kekuatan dinamis UU Desa dapat digunakan untuk membangun keberdayaan dan kedaulatan Indonesia dari desa.

Ketika Undang-Undang Desa Indonesia mulai berlaku, debu pembangunan Indonesia yang terpusat dan terdesentralisasi terangkat dari desa-desa di Indonesia. Kebijakan 32 tahun Orde Baru tentang administrasi pembangunan nasional yang terpusat hanya dapat menguntungkan daerah-daerah yang dekat dengan kekuasaan dan pusat pertumbuhan ekonomi. Selain itu, pembangunan tidak sampai ke pedesaan, apalagi masyarakat. Karena pengelolaan fiskal pembangunan telah terfragmentasi dan terregionalisasi, belum berhasil meningkatkan kesejahteraan, khususnya di pedesaan.

Kini saatnya desa-desa di Indonesia menunjukkan bahwa mereka mampu “Membangun Indonesia” ketika UU Desa menempatkan pembangunan nasional di tangan mereka. Kami kembali ke desa, dan keadaan membaik. Kapasitas desa untuk mengembangkan kelembagaan ekonomi lokal yang mampu menghasilkan komoditas ekonomi secara besar-besaran, serta meningkatkan daya saing dalam menjual produknya ke kancah perdagangan global, tentu sangat penting dalam persaingan ekonomi yang semakin keras ini. Tujuan kami adalah untuk terus terlibat dengan desa-desa di Indonesia dalam menerjemahkan UU Desa ke dalam kerangka kebijakan strategis sehingga dapat digunakan sebagai panduan untuk melaksanakan program prioritas yang akan membantu mencapai tujuan negara kita membangun Indonesia dari sebuah desa.

Building Villages, Alleviating Half of Poverty in Indonesia

All communities in Indonesia have now adopted Village Law No. 6 of 2014, which was signed into law four years ago. There have, of course, been many changes and dynamics of change in the villages over this time period. It’s important to note that the Village Law is not the only answer to community development, but we believe that it is an important stepping stone on the path to building a village that is autonomous, democratic, and successful.

At the very least, the Village Law offers an alternative to city-centric growth. Villages are the most concentrated areas of poverty and underdevelopment because of their central location in the distribution of people. Over three-fourths of Indonesia’s 37 million impoverished people live in rural areas, with over two-thirds of them farming. As a result, the development of villages equates to the eradication of more than half of Indonesia’s poverty. It’s not only about village government and development that this legislation touches on, though.

Village funds have revived the feeling of community in rural areas. Previously, the hamlet was quiet due to the departure of many young people in search of a better life. Now, the contrary is true. Because the money is in the hamlet, there are many young people working there. The village’s economy is based on the movement of $1-2 billion a year. Opportunities for employment and entrepreneurship abound. NTT – Nita Village in Flores’ Sikka Regency has been my home for a while. This hamlet won the national village competition in 2016 and was given the title of champion. Community members get the advantages of well-managed village money in this area.

This ministry’s openness to additional aspects that enhance the oversight of village fund management is also remarkable.. As part of its role as custodian of village revenues, the ministry works with local religious organizations. The Evangelical Christian Church of Timor and the PDTT Ministry of Villages signed an MoU on October 21st, 2017. This kind of cooperation is critical if the town wants to keep its finances safe.

Membangun Desa, Mengentas Separuh Kemiskinan di Indonesia

Seluruh masyarakat di Indonesia kini telah mengadopsi UU Desa No. 6 Tahun 2014, yang ditandatangani menjadi undang-undang empat tahun lalu. Tentunya banyak perubahan dan dinamika perubahan yang terjadi di desa-desa selama ini. Penting untuk dicatat bahwa UU Desa bukanlah satu-satunya jawaban untuk pembangunan masyarakat, tetapi kami percaya bahwa itu adalah batu loncatan penting dalam perjalanan membangun desa yang otonom, demokratis, dan sukses.

Paling tidak, UU Desa menawarkan alternatif pertumbuhan yang berpusat pada kota. Desa merupakan daerah kemiskinan dan keterbelakangan yang paling terkonsentrasi karena letaknya yang sentral dalam persebaran penduduk. Lebih dari tiga perempat dari 37 juta orang miskin di Indonesia tinggal di daerah pedesaan, dengan lebih dari dua pertiganya bertani. Akibatnya, pembangunan desa setara dengan pengentasan lebih dari separuh kemiskinan di Indonesia. Bukan hanya tentang pemerintahan desa dan pembangunan yang disinggung dalam undang-undang ini.

Dana desa telah menghidupkan kembali rasa kebersamaan di pedesaan. Sebelumnya, dusun itu sepi karena kepergian banyak anak muda untuk mencari kehidupan yang lebih baik. Sekarang, sebaliknya adalah benar. Karena uangnya ada di dusun, banyak anak muda yang bekerja di sana. Perekonomian desa didasarkan pada pergerakan Rp 1-2 miliar per tahun. Peluang kerja dan kewirausahaan berlimpah. NTT – Desa Nita di Kabupaten Sikka Flores sudah lama menjadi rumah saya. Dusun ini menjuarai lomba desa tingkat nasional tahun 2016 dan diberi predikat juara. Anggota masyarakat mendapatkan keuntungan dari uang desa yang dikelola dengan baik di daerah ini.

Keterbukaan kementerian ini terhadap aspek tambahan yang meningkatkan pengawasan pengelolaan dana desa juga luar biasa. Sebagai bagian dari perannya sebagai penjaga pendapatan desa, kementerian bekerja sama dengan organisasi keagamaan setempat. Gereja Kristen Injili Timor dan PDTT Kementerian Desa menandatangani MoU pada 21 Oktober 2017. Kerja sama semacam ini sangat penting jika kota ingin menjaga keuangannya tetap aman.
