Many countries have been forced to increase their debt to face the Covid-19 pandemic with the assumption that it will be settled once the economy returns to normal. But the pandemic is still ongoing even though it has passed a year and a half. The emergence of new variants of the Coronavirus has forced the re-imposition of even stricter restrictions. The direct result is a budget deficit, as state revenues fall, while spending rises. The longer the restrictions last, the larger the deficit will be, so it is still very possible for additional new debt to occur. With the increasing number of debts, scenarios are needed to solve them, including the worst option. This study presents various possibilities that a country can do to pay off debts that are difficult to repay, based on the experiences of several countries that have experienced it in the past.

Banyak negara terpaksa menambah utang dalam menghadapi pandemi Covid-19 dengan asumsi akan diselesaikan setelah perekonomian kembali normal. Namun pandemi ternyata masih berlangsung meski telah melewati masa satu setengah tahun. Munculnya varian-varian baru dari virus Corona telah memaksa pemberlakuan kembali pembatasan-pembatasan bahkan kadang lebih ketat. Akibat langsungnya adalah defisit anggaran, karena pendapatan negara turun, sementara pengeluaran naik. Semakin lama pembatasan berlangsung akan semakin besar defisit terjadi, sehingga masih sangat dimungkinkan adanya tambahan utang baru. Dengan semakin banyaknya utang, diperlukan skenario-skenario untuk menyelesaikannya, termasuk pada opsi terburuk. Studi ini menyajikan berbagai kemungkinan yang dapat dilakukan suatu negara untuk membayar utang yang sulit terbayar, berdasar pada pengalaman beberapa negara yang telah mengalaminya di masa lalu.

The impact of climate change caused by global warming is currently one of the trending topics in various media and it is an extremely serious threat to human security. Forest fires, floods, landslides and changes in lifestyles to survive natural disasters are the very significant contributing factors to poverty rates in various parts of the world. The London School of Economics and Political Science conducted a study of 141 countries affected by disasters in the 1981-2002 period and found a close link between natural disasters and women's socioeconomic status. Data from the National Agency for Disaster Management (BNPB) states that women have 14 times of risk for becoming victims of disasters compared to adult men. Women become the most victimized because women prioritize children and their families rather than saving themselves. Although women bear more risks to climate change, women can also have the principal opportunity and role in implementing climate change mitigation adaptation, namely by making women actors in disaster mitigation and drivers of change in parallel to their strong responsibilities to their families. By providing adequate knowledge for women about adaptation and mitigation of disasters, the women can turn themselves to be the strategic activists in coping with disasters for communities living in disaster-prone areas.This study is a comparative discussion of three research results to obtain an overview and find solutions to women's problems from the consequences of climate change, which is a study by changing women from being the most victims of natural disasters to becoming the driving actor for families and communities in overcoming disaster and her ability to survive the post-disaster situation. The conclusion is the three levels of gender roles related to climate change to increase women's adaptive capacity. An adaptation strategy needs the form of 1. Increasing the role of women in the political arena. It is a crucial issue because women's rights can be protected by their presence and role, as well as women in guarding policies. 2. Increasing the role of women in the realm of education. Education is no less important than politics because education will provide a foundation for understanding and self-confidence, bargaining and personal branding for women so that their presence in society will be recognized and will no longer be discriminated. 3. Cultural reconstruction based on gender equality is very important because so far, the notion of patriarchy is still inherent in our culture. Many perspectives are cooptated on the statement that superior (men) are stronger then give rise women mythos that is said to be weak (women). In reality, the presence of women is still fundamental to the aspect of maintaining the economy and education for the continuation and the quality of the life in the society.

Policies in the economic and development sector still place men as the main actors, women only as "task assistants" in economic activities. The women of Liang Bunyu village in West Sebatik District make Seaweed farming a source of household income and become a leading commodity in village economic development. The women in the village bind seaweed farming for the nursery. A job that men are reluctant to do, but the most important part of the production process. This paper discussed how Sebatik women play a crucial role in making seaweed cultivation a household business. It will be an essential input for the local government policy of developing a household business driven by housewives. The research method used was a qualitative description with an ethnographic approach to make participant observations and in-depth interviews are accurate in collecting data and field findings. The research found that Sebatik women had the prospect to be an entrepreneur. It's just that Sebatik's economic development does not necessarily increase women's empowerment. Not many Sebatik women farmers think about selling seaweed as a processed product, which is more economically valuable and profitable. Education and community culture were the main causes, even though kinship and ethnic networks could function as economic capital. Sebatik woman farmers need government support in both policy regulation and practical assistance, especially in entrepreneurial training.

Indonesia is one of the countries with a large market for online transportation. This paper describes a meta-analysis on policy inequality regarding public transportation. Meta-analysis and Computer Assisted Qualitative Data Software (CAQDAS) were utilized to evaluate the inequality of public transportation policy for conventional transportation. Scopus search engine was also used to identify broad literature on a particular policy regulation in Indonesia between 2010 and 2021. Then, this study employed online news related to the conflict between conventional and online transportation. The result disclosed a policy inequality between online and conventional transportation based on the social movement on online media. Thus, the government has to implement a strict policy applicable to transportation. The words "protest", "regulation," and "police" were also seen clearly on the issue. In addition, the protesters, comprised of drivers from Uber, Grabcar, and Go-Car, said that Transportation Ministry Regulation No 32/2016 would disadvantage them because it is too difficult to comply with the requirements. Hence, the government can decide on self-regulation to design a policy for online transportation. In this case, state law is still necessary when monopolistic attempts are made, unfair competition exists, public safety as consumers is maintained, and taxes are collected.
