Abstract

This research is motivated by a contradictory reality about the life of traditional fishermen. Traditional fishermen have “sacred” zones for fishing activities which are protected by law due to their highest biodiversity and cultural importance to local fishing communities. On the other hand, 76 percent of the traditional fishermen are classified as poor; the level of poverty headcount index (PHI) reaches 32.4 percent. Based on this contradictory situation, 2 (two) important questions arise: what happens in the fishing area of traditional fishermen and whether the poverty experienced by traditional fishermen starst from this fishing ground. This research took place in Bagan Kuala, a village where the majority of the population are traditional fishermen. This study used an ethnographic approach with two data collection tools, which are interviews and observations. It was found that each traditional fisherman in this village has its own fishing grounds and boundaries. The boundary is marked by fish aggregating device (FAD), which also serve its purpose as fish catcher. Some of the FADs have been owned by fishermen for many generations. Outsiders often trespass this fishing ground, particularly at night where they use modern tools like trawl, destroying the fishermen’s FADs. As a result, there are conflicts and also negotiations involving the locals and outsiders who asked for their permission; the catch was divided depending on the agreement. From these findings, it can be concluded that poverty can start from the fishing ground.

Abstract

This public service aims to turn lokal wisdom into a guide, an attitude and behaviour in interacting with nature, as well as transforming lokal wisdom to efforts in sustaining marine life and increasing the catch of traditional fishermen. The steps to achieve these objectives are as follows: (a) conducting socialization of the Tuasan ((Fish Aggregating Device/FAD) as lokal wisdom and the medium of marine life preservation, through short videos screening, (b), holding a training on how to create FAD with the stakeholders of Bagan Kuala Village as facilitators. The output is an increase in the knowledge of traditional fishermen about lokal wisdom related to the fishing process. In addition, several FADs were handed over to the lokal fishermen of Bagan Kuala Village for communal use.Tuasan has become a guidance in the fishing process by some traditional fishermen for such a long time. Its materials consist of coconut fronds, bamboo, sand and rope; this lokal FAD is placed at the seabed as a playground and breeding location for fishes. In addition, tuasan is also used to mark the boundaries of fishing areas. Finally, tuasan as lokal wisdom of traditional fishermen needs to be preserved because it can increase the fish catching volume while it helps the preservation process of marine life

Abstract

The behavior of visitors littering in coastal tourist parks has resulted in the generation of plastic waste, which, in turn, poses a significant risk of polluting the ocean. This issue arises due to the absence of a deliberately constructed visitor littering control system by the park management. This paper explains that a visitor littering control system in tourist parks can be established by the management through participatory and persuasive approaches, without causing resistance from visitors. The method employed is through active engagement. Park managers and staff across all levels, particularly those who interact directly with visitors, are collaboratively involved in developing a shared understanding. This is achieved through Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), which address the rationale behind encouraging visitors to manage their own waste, facilitated by a dedicated team. Through FGDs, complemented by educational materials on the environmental impact of plastic waste and the development of a Procedural Manual for establishing a visitor littering control system, along with continued support, the park management succeeded in creating an environment where staff systematically and collectively persuade visitors while providing waste bags (disposal points) to prevent littering. The results of this initiative demonstrate that the visitor littering control system in the Mangrove Tourism Park has begun to take shape, characterized by a shared commitment and awareness to tackle waste management issues, as well as an increased understanding among the park management of the environmental hazards posed by plastic waste.

Abstract

The management of ecotourism-based rafting in Buluh Duri Village through empowerment of BUMDes administrators is still constrained in various aspects. These aspects include: the low ability of BUMDes administrators to overcome the less than optimal BUMDes partnership, the low knowledge of BUMDes administrators about the use of social capital in managing tourist areas as an effort to improve the village community's economy, the low empowerment of village officials in organizing partnerships and collective business management based on social capital, including: services that prioritize comfort, hospitality, cleanliness, various halal foods with delicious and affordable flavors, the availability of adequate infrastructure, maintaining environmental cleanliness from organic and non-organic waste. This condition needs to be followed up by carrying out a community service program. This activity is carried out to empower BUMDes administrators and the community in providing the use of social capital. The purpose of this economic and social service activity is to help reduce partnerships that have experienced problems, increase the knowledge of BUMDes administrators as a driving force regarding the development of tourist areas in managing them as an effort to improve the village community's economy, increase the empowerment of village officials in organizing partnerships and collective business management based on social capital. To achieve these goals, the methods used in this activity are: Socialization and Training on Utilization of Social Capital, Participatory Organization, Monitoring and Evaluation. The results of this economic and social service are that the partner group (BUMDes BUDUMA administrators) are able to become community drivers in utilizing social capital in developing BUMDes BUDUMA sustainably through the development of BUMDes that can improve community welfare.
