Judul: Pelayanan publik, kualitas sumberdaya manusia dan disparitas pembangunan wilayah
Abstrak: Decentralized regional development becomes a trend and has been transformed as an angel messenger of change, in Indonesia more familiar referred to regional autonomy. Over a decade since 1999, regional autonomy was conducted, it’s began to arise many questions, one of the most striking is that, did regional autonomy success to improve the welfare of society and capable to facilitate the distribution of development? This question was not arising without cause or reason, because the physical laws of cause and effect would apply in real life wherever it is. Counter productive regional autonomy is the basis of the initial formation of research hypotheses that will further see how the actual process of public services by local governments, in this case the District Government of Lebak. The studied public service under study is slightly investigating the impact on the quality of human resources. The ultimate impact was how to influence the quality of human resources resulted from public service to the economic structure and level of disparity. Public service provided by Lebak regency will try to be analyzed with IPA and further linkages will be seen the influence of public services towards the quality of human resources using multiple linear regression analysis. As for the influence of the quality of human resources towards the economic structure and level of disparity will be used descriptive analysis, LQ, Typology Klassen, IKM, Williamson index and multiple linear regression analysis. The result of this study provided information that the public service in Lebak regency still below the minimal standard of service and the public was not satisfied with the provided services. Public services significantly impair the quality of human resources. The impact was the quality human resources were still below the average of Banten province, where the number of Lebak HDI in 2008 was 67.10. With the condition of human resources, the Lebak GDP was still not evenly, the income per capita only reached number 5.000.000. in addition, Lebak still rely on agricultural commodities as the support of key development sectors as well as a distribution base which provides for 35.4 percent of GDP. Klassen Typology Based on the analysis, nearly 90 percent of Lebak region belong to the disadvantaged areas that have growth and low incomes. HPI Analysis showed that the number of poor people in Lebak was still relatively high, 12.5 percent. Low HDI also contributed to high rates of disparity, which was equal to 0.69. Linkages occur that the low quality of human resources is causing high rates of disparity. The poor public services made low quality of human resources. The low quality of human resources was causing high rates of regional development disparities.

Judul: Pengaruh Tata Kelola Ekonomi Daerah Terhadap Tingkat Kemiskinan dan Indeks Pembangunan Manusia di Kawasan Timur Indonesia
Abstrak: East Indonesia is a part of Indonesian region which has a wealth of natural that can be developed and potential to become a growth centers. However, this wealth natural resource has not been supported by human resource both in quality and quantity. This can be reflected from the HDI (Human Development Index) in a relatively low in East Indonesia. Regional autonomy was implemented in Indonesia since 2001 aims to improve the welfare of the society and is expected to increase HDI and reduce poverty. The objective of this study is to describe Local Economic Governance (LEG), poverty and HDI in the region and to analyze the impact of LEG on poverty and HDI in East Indonesia. The data were processed using descriptive analysis and multiple regression analysis to estimate Ordinary Least Square. The results showed that LEG conditions in East Indonesia still inequity. The level of poverty districts/cities in East Indonesia is still high and HDI is still relatively low. Variables that can significantly increase the HDI in East Indonesia is business licensing, regulatory regions, capacity and integrity of regent / mayor, security and conflict resolution, as well as GDP per capita and education spending. While the variables that can reduce the level of poverty is local infrastructure, business licensing, capacity and integrity of regent/mayor, security and conflict resolution, GDP per capita and education spending .

Judul: Hydroxyapatite-Chitosan Composite Coating on Stainless Steel 316 to Improve Corrosion Resistance
Abstrak: Metals that were used in bone implantation should have good corrosion resistance that were not easily corroded when implanted into the body. Metal corrosion resistance of stainless steel 316 can be enhanced through the metal coating by hydroxyapatite-chitosan composite with composition ratio of hydroxyapatite (gram) and chitosan 3% (mL) 0.2:0, 0.2:0.1, 0.2:0.5, 0.2:1.0, and 0.2:1.5. Besides improving the corrosion resistance of metal, the presence of chitosan also maintain the position of hydroxyapatite on metal surfaces. Corrosion resistance increases with increasing amount of chitosan added and the best composition of hydroxyapatite-chitosan composite was 0.2:1.0.
