Tourism is one of the most promising sectors for regional development on a global scale. Along with its development, the concept of community-based ecotourism has emerged, namely tourism that offers all available natural resources. This study was conducted in the mudflow in Sidoarjo to become an opportunity for the government to develop an existing tourism area. This study is a study of FGDs and academic texts of the Sidoarjo Regency Government in preparing the Sidoarjo Geological Protected Area Post-Porong Mudflow Master Plan Document. The results of the study showed that the development of mudflow tourism can become a major tourist destination supported by geo park galleries, rest areas, sports, education, culinary and souvenirs, urban forests, water storage pools, and urban farming. To realize this tourist destination model, Sidoarjo Regency must provide physical and non-physical infrastructure, socialization to the community about the safety level of Sidoarjo mud, socialization to the community or association regarding the benefits of the Sidoarjo mud area, and digging the community's spirituality to build together as a reference to accelerate the development of ecotourism.

This study aims to determine and analyze the level of technical cost efficiency, technical systems and improvement strategies that need to be done for inefficient areas in 30 districts / cities in East Java Province. This study uses secondary data from 30 districts / cities in East Java Province. The variables used include APBD expenditure variables according to health function as input, variable total of puskesmas, posyandu, puskesmas medical personnel, and government hospitals as intermediate outputs, as well as life expectancy, Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR), Infant Mortality Rate (IMR), and Morbidity Rate variables as outcomes. The research method uses Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) with the assumption of Variable Return to Scale (VRS) and input-oriented. The results obtained on average technical efficiency costs during 2012-2016 were only 26.67%, while for technical efficiency the system reached 53.34% which was already efficient so that there were indications of waste in the allocation of health spending and an improvement strategy based on potential improvement for the regions was needed. which is still inefficient so that the proportion of inputs and outputs can be efficient according to the needs in each of these regions.

Having an important role as the main supplier of sugar cane in Indonesia that processed into sugar, so that East Java as a producer of sugar cane both with Ratoon Cane (RC) and Plant Cane (PC) must be supported by the government to be more productive and competitive. One of them is through increasing sugar cane yield through increasing technical efficiency. The purpose of this study is to analyze the level of technical efficiency in the use of sugar cane farming and identify the level of technical efficiency of farm households. The research location was determined purposively in Malang, Pasuruan, Lumajang, Bondowoso and Situbondo Regencies in July - December in 2018. Determination of respondents was carried out using the typical case sampling method. The technical efficiency of each farmer is carried out using a comparison of the actual production functions achieved by farmers using the frontier production function. The results showed the level of technical efficiency in sugar cane farming in wetland and dry land using RC and PC planting systems respectively averaged 89.44% and 99.80% so it was technically efficient.

This article describes the situation and potential of SMEs in East Java Indonesia. Small and medium enterprises are essential to support the economic progress of a country. By using descriptive analysis and multiple regression then generated mapping. Mapping the characteristics and competitiveness of SMEs is done as a basis for gap analysis. If the current condition of Indonesian SMEs is known, benchmarking can be done by comparing ideal conditions or targets to be achieved in the face of global competition. The mapping generated from this research is expected to provide an overall picture of SMEs in disrict of Jember, Bondosowo, Situbondo and Banyuwangi, East Java Province, Indonesia, so that it can assist government and business actors in determining business strategies and policies. This study found the variables that significantly affect the competitive position are innovation ability, quality focus, customer loyalty, response to change, price advantage and marketing power. While the insignificant membership of the cooperative, it does not have a significant role for the creation of a strong competitive position. This is supported by the fact that most of the SMEs in eastern Java are not members of the cooperative. Similarly, business status with legal status and not and the use of intermediary traders is not a thing that affects the strength of competitive position.

In East Java Province, the government still provides subsidy to soybean production in the form of soft credit to production inputs. Since the government budget and subsidy have been limited, efficiency in production, marketing and trade become crucial issues.

Research on Local Revenue, General Allocation Fund, and Special Allocation Fund on economic growth, poverty, unemployment, and Gini ratios have often been done. However, there is no research that uses these three funding sources as latent variables that have a simultaneous influence on quality economic growth variables as a latent variable consisting of economic growth, poverty, unemployment and the Gini ratio as constructs. Similarly, capital expenditure as a moderating variable will be seen as influencing the source of funds. East Java is a province with 38 districts/cities where the level of economic growth is quite high and even exceeds the level of national economic growth. But the level of poverty, unemployment, and inequality is also very high. This study aims to look at the effect of decentralized funding sources on Quality Economic Growth in East Java. The data used comes from the Directorate General of Financial Balance of the Ministry of Finance in 2012 - 2015 for realization's fund, and from the Central Bureau of Statistics for economic growth, poverty, unemployment, and Gini ratios. This study uses Partial Least Squares (PLS) in analyzing data, where quality economic growth becomes endogenous latent variables that are influenced by funding sources as exogenous latent variables and capital expenditure as a moderating variable. The results of the analysis show that the source of funds does not significantly affect quality economic growth even though the direction is positive. Likewise, capital expenditure cannot strengthen the influence of funding sources on quality economic growth. From this research, it is expected that the regional government can reanalyze the allocation of funds and the realization of regional expenditures which are prioritized for public service spending so that the triple track strategy can be implemented properly and achieve quality economic growth.

Pandansari village became one of the villages that has frequent landslide events in the period 2009-2015 compared with the surrounding area in Malang regency. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of landslide risk located within an active volcano. To enhance the comprehensive analysis of landslide disasters, we used a risk concept in this study. The landslide risk analysis was based on 3 determinants, namely hazards, community vulnerability, and regional capacity. The data collections were conducted using observation and documentation for landslide hazards and interviews as well as Focus Group Discussion (FGD) for vulnerability and capacity aspects. The interviewed were applied for community and local government of Pandansari village. The recorded interviews were transcribed and analyzed according to recurrent themes in the answers. Findings from field investigation were then confronted with previous existing concepts of human exposure to natural hazards. Furthermore, the landslide hazard data were analyzed using spatial analysis tools, including GIS scoring, weighting, and overlaying weighted sum. The results showed the level of landslide risk has different values depending on the risk parameter, community vulnerability, and regional capacity. The level of landslide risk was divided into three levels, namely high with an area of 557.71 ha, moderate with 774.49 ha, and low with 1118.77 ha. Each of the risk factors, vulnerability, and capacity, has its characteristics in influencing the landslide risk in Pandansari Village. In relation to landslide disaster management, the risk analysis gives comprehensive input reaching good management practice in Pandansari village.

Controlling is always needed in every public policies and programs, through both of monitoring and evaluation on the process, the conformability between its process and the purposes, outputs, and impacts. The aim of this research was to monitor and to evaluate the overcoming feminism on poverty program during 2018 in some cities in East Java Province, used descriptive-qualitative method. The data was collected by visiting and surveying the sites. Research locations were determined by proportional sampling method considering kinds of business process run by targeted households in each village. Two hundred and three households from twenty villages and seven cities were monitored and evaluated, which were represented about ten percent of the population. The research showed that the success rate of the program was 96.50%. as measured by the accuracy of the target (100%), the accuracy of receiving the amount of aid and its use (100%) as well as aspects of the benefit of the aid (89.49%). From the aid provided, 87.19% led to self-motivation in doing business, increasing in income, capital, and assets were 84.24%, 84.24%, 87.68% as well as environmental supporting was 88.67%. There was no similar activity from the regional government in term of equal distribution of the aid and program sustainability. The family supporting from the households ensure the success of this program.

Beginning in the mid-1970s, financial distress in local governments became big news when New York City nearly collapsed due to the energy crisis and high inflation. When local governments experience financial distress, the responsibility to provide services to the community both now and in the future cannot be fulfilled. Local governments can only maintain services to the community if they are able to avoid financial distress. If the financial distress condition is maintained, there will be a stagnation in the level of community welfare which will have an impact on regional economic growth because it is not supported by adequate public services. Some local governments like Pennsylvania, have implemented a measure to indicate financial distress as stipulated in the 1987 Financially Distressed City Act (UU 47). However, the local government in Indonesia does not yet have an absolute measure for this financial distress condition. For this reason, financial distress in this study will use a relative measure indicated by the probability value measured using a defined approach. The results of the study provide an overview of how the relevant values in local government financial statements are able to predict financial distress in local governments. The findings show that the variables intergovernmental revenue (IGR), financial independence (FIND), employee expenditure (EMPEX), capital expenditure (CAPEX), and operating position (OPPOS) have a significant effect and can be used as an alternative predictor of financial distress with more comprehensive suitability with the financial characteristics of local government in East Java Province.

The Agricultural Demand Led Industrialization (ADLI) strategy can be considered effective because of the dominant amount of East Java land (74.11%) cultivated for the agricultural sector. This study aims to determine the relationship between the agricultural and manufacturing industry sectors; knowing the impact of the "Agricultural Demand Led Industrialization" (ADLI) strategy in the East Java economy; and knowing the elasticity of agricultural investment on output creation, gross value added, and income in East Java. This research uses the Input-Output (IO) analysis technique for all economic sectors in East Java, with an emphasis on the agricultural sector and processing industry in 1995-2010. The empirical results state that the ADLI Strategy has a positive impact on output creation and income in the East Java economy. The level of sensitivity /response from the output, gross value added, and income due to changes in investment value in the agricultural sector is relatively not much different.

The development of the Indonesian national language has been exemplary. Unlike the creation of a national language in other developing countries, as in Malaysia, the Philippines, and India, the choice has not become a political issue. In Indonesia, no sector of society has sought to promote other local or foreign languages as the national language. In 1962, Takdir Alisjahbana outlined the initial development of Indonesian from Malay, the trade language of the archipelago from the first century AD. and the language of the Sriwijaya Empire (A.D. 700–1200) through the period of rising nationalism to independence. A few of the important steps in this process were: the declaration of Indonesian as the national language by the National Youth Congress in 1928; the flourishing of a national and a Chinese press from the 1920s onward, both of which used the Malay language; the promotion of literary works by the monthly journal, Pudjangga Baru, from 1933 onward; and the standardizing effect of the Indonesian Language Commission established in 1942. These events successfully established the first stage or emergence of the national language.

The development of the Indonesian national language has been exemplary. The choice has not become a political issue in Indonesia unlike in Malaysia, the Philippines and India. The paper examines the expansion of the national language into the personal communication networks of society. Findings of a sociolinguistic survey conducted in East Java in 1976 compared with the findings of such a survey conducted in another area of East Java by Clifford Geertz in the late 1950s
