In Papua province, fiscal decentralization policy had a positive impact on the potential development and regional government creativity. The effectiveness in managing regional wealth will affect to the regional revenue which can further determine the effect of fiscal decentralization and economic growth to improve on poverty. The method used is multiple linear regression analysis technique. The results showed simultaneous fiscal decentralization and economic growth has a significant effect on poverty. In partial result, the negative fiscal decentralization variable and significant fiscal decentralization on poverty means there is decreased percentage in the number of the poor people.
The Law of Wagner is supposedly not universally applicable. There are debates about the truth of this law. Based on this phenomenon, the purpose of this study is to examine the existence of Wagner's Law in the economy of Papua Province. Data used in this research are GRDP (Gross Regional Domestic Product) at the constant price (Real GRDP) and government expenditure at the constant price (Real GOV) in the form of natural logarithms (the base year 2000) from all municipalities in Papua Province from 2000 to 2013. Data source comes from Badan Pusat Statistik-Statistics Indonesia. The method used in this research is The Kao Cointegration Test and The Granger Causality Test. These methods indicate the possibility of short-term and long-term effects across economic variables. The result of this study concludes that there is a significant relationship between government expenditure and Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP). This result means that Wagner's Law is not proven in the Papuan economy. This is supported by a causality test which shows government expenditure is granger cause of the real GDP, but not vice versa. However, the two variables are cointegrating.

On May 20, 2011, the government of the Republic of Indonesia enacted Presidential Instruction (Inpres) number 10 of 2011 as the start of the forest moratorium policy. This policy aimed to reduce the rate of deforestation and forest degradation through a moratorium on the issuance of new permits. However, the effectiveness of this policy in achieving these goals is still being debated. This study shows that the forest moratorium policy has successfully reduced the extent of the concession area, as well as the average deforestation and forest degradation rate in Papua Province. However, the concession extent was not directly proportional to the rate of deforestation and forest degradation in the concession area, and the decline of the average rate of deforestation and forest degradation was not accompanied by a steady rate during the enactment of the policy. This study also reveals that policy implementation at the provincial level was hampered by the communication factor, the resources factor, and the disposition factor. We recommend that, besides limiting the concession area, the government should improve the licensing governance by strengthening the monitoring and evaluation, as well as the mechanism of business-work-plan approval. Also, the central government should improve coordination with the local government to overcome factors hampering the implementation of the moratorium policy.
The existence of MRP in accordance with the provisions of Law No. 21 of 2001, is expected to affect the development policies in Papua Province, so that it can provide support to the Papua natives, but during the 2001-2018 period, MRP has not been optimal in carrying out its duties and authorities, as indicated by the absence of a strategic and fundamental policy for the Papua natives. In connection with the importance of the existence of MRP, MRP institution shall be strengthened that it shall ideally only consist of 1 MRP representing customs and cultures of the Papua natives. In addition, the authority of MRP shall be strengthened by being positioned as a legislative body such as Provincial House of Representatives, only differentiated based on the scope of its authority, that the scope of DPRP authority covers aspects relating to the protection of population rights, while the MRP's authority only covers aspects related to the protection of the rights of the Papua natives. Thus, the legislative body at the provincial level shall consist of 2 (two) rooms, namely the Provincial House of Representatives representing the population, and the MRP representing the Papua natives.
Background: chemical elements class VIIA, was the most reactive element and the halogen element is not found free in nature. Halogen is derived from the word halo genes, which means salt forming. The halogen element is a non-metallic element consisting of Flourine (F2), Chlorine (Cl2), Bromine (Br2), Iodine (I2), and Astatine (At2). Halogens are very important in the field of nutrition, althougt it is needed in small amounts. One very important element to improve the nutritional status of pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers,baby,and toddlers namely the element iodine. But other elements such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and astatin, also needed by the body to improve the health status of the mother, children, and other age groups. The purpose of the study was know the history of the benefits of halogen nutrients for human and animal health in Papua Province of Indonesia. Methods: Qualitative research with phenomonology approach. The approach used in research is cultural, to describe the utilization of halogen nutrients, by the peoples of Papuan in Papua Province. Data collection uses in-depth interviews. Research Samples ware Elderly aged ≥ 60 years, who know the benefits of halogen nutrients. Research location was Jayapura and Jayawijaya Regencies in Papua Province Indonesia. Results: The results of the study proved that halogen nutrients are formed from coal mining materials. The halogen nutrient ware very necessary for forest animals to improved growth, development,and health status. In the past before there were Netherlands and Indonesian governments in Papua Province. Papuans who live in the mountains and valleys, had consumed halogen nutrients to improved nutritional status, growth and development, immune system to infectious diseases,and health status. The halogen nutrient is usually consumed by native Papuans and forest animals, whose lives ware far from edge of the sea, usually live in mountainous areas and valleys. The halogen nutrient becomes an essential nutrient that was needed by forest ...
The industry's existence is essential to drive economic development in a region, particularly at the village level, the smallest area where the industry is located. Therefore, it is crucial to determine the factors influencing the micro-small industry (MSI) in the village area. This study involves 759 villages in Papua and analyzes it using the Classification and Regression Tree (CART). The data are taken from a Potential Village Survey conducted by BPS-Statistics Papua in 2018. This study shows that the village with the industrial centre tends to have a higher number of MSI. Simultaneously, the village that does not have an industrial centre and does not have adequate transportation facility tend to have the lowest MSI quantity. The number of MSI will increase in line with the village head's education level and an adequate transportation facility. Based on this finding, three suitable suggestions need to be executed to encourage MSI's growth in each village. First, the government needs to provide the industrial zone to support MSI's existence and development in the village area. Secondly, connectivity between the industrial village needs to be paid attention to by building the road and other support transportation facility. Thirdly, the government needs to provide more assistance for the village heads in managing government and designing policy, especially those who do not have a higher education background.

Special Autonomy assigns its rights and obligations to local governments to regulate and manage their own affairs and interests of the society so that people increasingly can be served well. But in fact, public services provided is not maximized. This study used qualitative methods, data sources are divided into two types of data sources, namely primary and secondary data sources. The results of this study indicate that there is still lack of public services the Government of Papua Province visible from the weak aspects of responsiveness, which local governments less responsive to some of the problems in the field of education, economy and industry growth and physical development as well as non-physical. From the aspect of responsibility is also still found their weaknesses, which the Government of Papua Province is still not fully overcome the problems of corruption and poverty. Meanwhile, from the aspect of accountability, it is known that the performance of governance in Papua in providing public services are not running optimally, one reason is the lack of competence and capability of local government officials.
Purpose The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Special Autonomy policy to improve the community welfare of Papua Province.
Design/methodology/approach This study was carried out using a qualitative approach assessing program activities and client satisfaction. It focused on program activity, target and implementation effectively and efficiently, involving the client's evaluation process. Research data was obtained from the Papua Regional Development Planning Agency and separated into primary and secondary sources. Primary data was obtained through observation, interview and documentation from several informants. The informants were determined based on the role and involvement in the Papua Province Special Autonomy. Secondary data sources were obtained through field studies, scientific journals, previous research, written documents from relevant agencies, internet and electronic and print media.
Findings This study exhibits characteristics of Papua Province Special Autonomy, which are identical to an asymmetric decentralization model, although it took 20 years of implementation because of the lack of evaluation and improvement. It disproves Katorobo's (2004) theory that the said asymmetric decentralization model is more effective than symmetrical decentralization. Material requirement planning (MRP) empowerment or abolition should be considered important because of the lack of positive results. Otsus needs to improve the system and financial management, considering financial distribution for developed regions in the coastal areas and plains rather than mountainous regions.
Originality/value This research was conducted because of the phenomenon of Papua Province Special Autonomy, also driven by the problems in the implementation of Special Autonomy Policy for Papua Province that had not borne optimum results. This study aimed to make recommendations for the Special Autonomy policy of the Papua Province to improve community welfare.
Papua Province is located at the eastern end of the territory of Indonesia, with a large area and potential for natural resources of economic and strategic value. Smart City itself becomes a part of implementation Internet of things (IoT) in Indonesian. There are three objects of the Smartcity program, namely the community, the government, and city infrastructure. Every city in Indonesia has different problems to apply Smart City. An appropriate way is also needed to integrate the community, government and city infrastructure which is the object of a Smart City. An appropriate way is also needed to integrate the community, government and city infrastructure which is the object of a Smart City. This study discusses the smart city concept and how the challenges and implementation in Papua. The method used in this paper is qualitative. Smart City aims to integrate information from the three objects above in order to create an efficient service to realize Papua Awakening, Independent, Prosperous and Equitable.
Inequitable distribution of income is an essential issue in the development plan because it has a direct link to welfare. Papua is one of the provinces that are dealing with this issue. It is known from both indicators which the work participation rate and the poverty rate were high. Therefore, this study will describe the factors that influence the wage differentials of workers in Papua so that the government has a more accurate picture of policy steps. This study uses the classification and regression tree (CART) analysis of the 2019 National Labor Force Survey (SAKERNAS). The results of the study show that from five predictor variables used, four of them can explain the phenomenon of wage differentiation in Papua. The four variables are the use of IT in employment, business sector, gender, and education level. In the meantime, rural-urban classification variables do not have a substantial role in influencing workers' wage differentiation. Based on the results of the study, the government should make a long-term investment in improving the quality of human resources, and making regulations that are pro to gender equality. They also should focus on efforts to penetrate technology in the business, and create the relevant programs to boost the added value in the sector of agriculture.
