Abstract

Traditional handicrafts in Ha Dong, Van Phuc, Vietnam, are the subject of this study. Crafts are portable and manufactured by craftsmen with artistic and manual talents, serving immediate demands and are traded and exchanged. They may exhibit cultural significance and symbolic values of gender, age, ethnicity, and nationalism, forming part of social and religious beliefs. Unfortunately, growing industrialization, globalisation, and commodification have limited them. The Van Phuc village is a great case study for how it survived and developed during urbanisation and industrialization. Applying qualitative research, data was collected through offline observations, interviews, and document analysis from 2017-2021. This study found that lack of basic infrastructure, less competitive products, traditional crafts style, and anxiety for future succession have inhibited the village's promotion of its values. To help stakeholders understand and safeguard the village, some implications are proposed.

Abstract

China has embarked on a massive infrastructure development project across and through its Southeast Asian neighbors such as the China-Myanmar Economic Corridor (CMEC). While China is the world's second largest economy, Myanmar is on the United Nations' list of 48 least developed countries (LDCs) with over 70% of the population living in rural areas and depend on agriculture. While China has no religion Myanmar's culture is immersed in Theravada Buddhism. We used a dataset from the World Values Survey to analyze the cultural variances based on the Value-Orientation Framework. Our findings show that the two countries differ significantly in almost all of the value orientations. Challengers such as a lack of a common history, religion and language had already raised tensions and conflicts in past projects and would lead to an erosion of the project-benefits upon the completion of the CMEC. This paper highlights the implications and pitfalls to avoid for both countries.

Abstract

Indigenous peoples (IPs) constantly face challenges in terms of culture, land and human rights. The IPs are often the subjects of government and private corporations' resource extraction and development initiatives in their ancestral domains and territories, hence, development aggression. This paper aims to have a critical analysis of the existing development aggression experienced by the IPs within the ten (10) member-states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The researchers contend that ASEAN and its member-states lack robust actions and efficiency in addressing development aggression. Employing a qualitative-descriptive approach, this study utilized the Key Informant Interview (KII) as the primary data, along with document review for secondary sources. This study argues that the development aggression continues to persist among the ASEAN member states as the majority of member states failed to recognize IPs, resulting in continued infringement of their rights. Moreover, the COVID-19 measures was utilized against IP communities and the constant advancement of extractive industries. Furthermore, it has been proven that both National policies and regional mechanisms confront considerable difficulties and need more legal frameworks in dealing with development aggression. The ASEAN member-states are not fully implementing customary rules and other international standards established by organizations such as the UN and the ILO. This study found that there are five (5) policies which may help protecting the IPs against development aggression. The development of Grievance Redress Mechanisms (GRMs) within the ASEAN Intergovernmental Commission on Human Rights (AICHR) specific for IPs and the inclusion of indigenous communities in income- generating projects developed in their ancestral lands and resources is the main one.

Abstract

In enacting its "Philosophical Axis", the Government of Yogyakarta forged a significant policy thattransformed its relations with community members especially street vendors. Under this policy,street vendors were relocated from their previous locations to sites known as Teras 1 and Teras 2Malioboro. Although the Operational Guidelines for the Implementation of the World HeritageConvention mandate the practice of sustainable development, street vendors—the economicbackbone of the Special Region of Yogyakarta—indicate that they have experienced a drastic loss ofincome due to accessibility issues. This research explores the impact of relocation on street vendors'income as well as short, medium, and long term plans for the new sites. Data were collected throughquestionnaires that were distributed to ninety respondents from Teras 1 and Teras 2, in-depthinterviews, and a review of the literature.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed lifestyles in counties and cities in just a few months by putting technology at the forefront of fighting the pandemic. Handling COVID-19 can show technological disparities and inequalities between different cities, given the COVID-19 condition that continues to plague various towns and districts in Indonesia. One of the steps to handle it, namely providing national-scale public services with a COVID-19 tracker application called PeduliLindungi. Using the PeduliLindungi app in each city and Regency is a form of Smart City implementation in Indonesia, especially in the Smart Living dimension. PeduliLindungi is a must-have app for residents who move or enter public facilities to create a safe and healthy city during the COVID-19 pandemic. Given the WFH trend, Twitter has become an abundant data source to collect public opinion regarding PeduliLindungi applications needed to improve service quality. This study aims to analyze Twitter users’ sentiments towards the PeduliLindungi app usage in the context of strengthening smart living. Sentiment analysis was performed in this study using the VADER Sentiment towards tweets dataset collected over two different periods. The results show that the Indonesian government effectively uses Twitter to answer questions and share COVID-19 and PeduliLindungi-related information with the public. Negative sentiment was expressed more towards the PeduliLindungi app than positive sentiment due to public unrest over data security and constraints encountered in using the PeduliLindungi app.
