Health condition in Bolaang Mongondow District specialy is categorized low compared to other more advanced regions. By using qualitative methods, this article clarifies poor families’ access to healthcare in Bolaang Mongondow and identifying internal and external difficulties in accessing one. The informants are categorizedas providers and clients of healthcare, specially poor families holding Askeskin (health insurance program for poor people) card that have experience in accessing healthcare in puskesmas (community health center). The result indicates that 1)poor family’s access to healthcare in Bolaang Mongondow is not yet optimum. When they were ill, the Askeskin holders should decide either to take care of themselves or seek for medical treatment from private hospitals. Ironically, some rich people get the Askeskin card also. The poor families sometimes were charged additional fees to cover such healthcare as childbearing and maternal and infant healthcare; 2) internal factors in accessing the healthcare (from Askeskin card holders themselves) and external factors that came from the providers of healthcare in giving services to poor families.Kondisi kesehatan di Kabupaten Bolaang Mongondow tergolong rendah dibandingkan dengan daerah lainnya. Dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif, artikel ini menjelaskan akses keluarga miskin terhadap layanan kesehatan di Kabupaten Bolaang Mongondow dan mengidentifikasi kesulitan internal dan eksternal ketika mengaksesnya. Informan adalah penyedia layanan dan kliennya, khususnya keluarga miskin pemegang Askeskin (program asuransi kesehatan untuk orang miskin). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 1) akses keluarga miskin terhadap kesehatan di Bolaang Mongondow belum optimal. Ketika mereka sakit, pemegang Askeskin harus memutuskan apakah mengobati sendiri atau berobat rumah sakit swasta. Ironisnya, beberapa orang kaya mendapatkan kartu Askeskin juga. Keluarga miskin kadang-kadang dibebani biaya tambahan untuk menutup kesehatan, seperti kesehatan melahirkan anak dan ibu dan bayi. 2) Faktor internal dalam mengakses pelayanan kesehatan (dari pemegang kartu Askeskin) dan faktor eksternal yang berasal dari penyedia layanan kesehatan dalam memberikan pelayanan kepada masyarakat miskin keluarga

The results of the PJPI reject the findings of earlier researches about the concept of disguised unemployment. In the context of the carrying capacity of the natural resources of a place compared with the existing population, its relationship with poverty is no longer very strong. Srihardjo is one of the villages in the island of Java which disagrees with this concept, where by the limited supply of the agricultural land can perfectly be substituted with the labor market in the industrial sector. However, the impact of the economic structural transformation at this time has got a balance on the wage dimension in the non-agricultural sector, particularly among the industrial workers, and the workers in the informal sector. This issue has the inevitable consequence of the exploitative tendency of the employers or entrepreneurs, and lack of support for the labor unions, which places them in a weak bargaining position in efforts to have their wages raised. Chris Manning in his paper shows the impact of the economic structural transformation on the production of workers, and their level from the agricultural sector (Srihardjo) to an industrial sector (Tangerang).

The number of elderly in the province of Yogyakarta Special Region has showed an absolute and relative tendencies to increase. The average increase from 1971 to 1995 which was 3.27 percent per year, cannot be separated from the uprising of people life expectancy. The increasing of life expectancy, in one hand indicates to be positive phenomena, but in another hand, brings forth the problem of cares. The changes of time and family structures have affected the cares of aging people which was different from what they did to their parents. This study which applies both qualitative and quantitative methods in the subdistricts of Umbulharjo, Kraton, and Pakualaman, within the city of Yogyakarta shows that the majority of elderly has disapproved the presence of special institutions for them. To take care of aging persons has been regarded as an obligation of every children to indicate devotions to their parents. Furthermore, for elderly living with children and grandchildren, may also serve as motivation of life enthusiasms and to keep away from loneliness as the most troublesome psychological problems.

Family planning is an instrument to achieve family welfare but it is not the only one. However, the simplification of family planning-family welfare linkage has exagerated the family planning role. Many studies, such as conducted by Population Studies Center Gadjah Mada University, show that the direct effects of family planning practice and fertility on family welfare are weak. Understandingthat the role is not big as expected, BKKBN introduced family welfare program. The program seems meaningful but institutionally it looks inappropriate. We suggest BKKBN to concentrate on its core bussines,e.g. serving FP,rather to do the family welfare program.

It has been argued by many demographers that socio economic development with its associated fundamental changes in the role of women and the value of children is the dominant factor in the transition from high to low fertility. Research in less developed countries has found lower fertility levels in urban population compared to rural population. It was therefore assumed that the modernizing role of urbanlife helped bring about a decline infertility levels.This study in Irian Jaya, however, convincingly shows that fertility of urban women in Irian Jaya is higher than that of rural women. This differential infertility in favour of urban women in Irian Jaya appears to be real and not a result of underreporting of total live births in rural areas.The reasons for lower fertility in the rural areas in IrianJaya remain unknown, and more research is therefore needed. However, this study strongly suggests that the traditional system of swidden agricultyure in Irian Jaya, which places a highvalue on the labour input of women, may play a major role in constraining fertility in rural area of this province. On the other hand, high fertility in urban areas takes place because urbanwomen have their first birth earlier thanwomen inthe rural areas.

Bussiness practice lately had caused many damages to the society around the corporates. They were directly effected by this practice in a bad way. They still live poorly while the corporates were getting richer by absorbing as much as they could from the resources. The policy by the goverment is to make the corporates giving back what they had taken to the society around them. They should arrange programs namely Corporate Social Responsibilites to empower the society. But in the implementation, some problems occured, such as the inconsistency of the program and the top-down program which did not involved society and related institutions. Later the program should be studied more to at the end empower the society and minimalized conflicts. Bussiness practice lately had caused many damages to the society around the corporates.

Labor income is a very important issue in the process of industrialization in developing countries. Most strikes and labor conflicts in the last three years were based on workers' desire to increase income. Regarding the fact that most laborers have poor education one common means of increasing income is by lengthening work hours. The results of this study tend to prove this statement. However, this strategy has only increased total income, not real income. Income per hour does not change, and even decreases. It means that extending working hours has only increased self-exploitation. Inaddition, this result has an important implication on the analysis of labor utilization. Laborers who are fully utilized do notal ways have a higher income than those underemployed. Therefore underemployment by working hours does not represent the real labor force problem.

There are evidences that development in the last three decades has succeeded to lower the number of people living under poverty line. However, along with the economic recession this success may not continue, even it may be worsened. This study aims to understand survival strategies of the poor people in rural areas. There are at least four strategies done by the poor people. First of all, the poor people work longer to increase their income. Secondly, because of limited employment opportunity in rural areas, they commute to the city to involve in nonfarm activities. In addition, the poor people try to maximize the utilization of household member to get additional money for the householdor to lower expenditure. The last strategy is to find additional jobs as the mean to increase their income. Insome extends, there are stilla lot of poor people who can not afford all strategies mentioned above, since they have limited access for increasing their income.
