Abstrak: The practice of community-based forest resource management through agroforestry management system which is a form of traditional farming systems in forest management has long been entrenched in the community. Local knowledge systems are different from each other even though according to the socio-cultural conditions and local ecosystems, but in general the system of knowledge and local resource management is always growing and evolving continuously from generation to generation in Maluku which include: Ambon Island , Seram Island, and Lease Islands, planting techniques is already a tradition of community forest management, known by the term hamlet. Hamlet is a term commonly used in the management of community forests by planting a variety of techniques, and has a high level of diversity (Ajawaila, 1996). Hamlet in general systems in practice, the public has a legal device in the form of customary rules very well in regulating land tenure, as well as managing the results that have been cultivated crops. Forest tenure traditionally been governed by clan groups or so-called eye home / home know that a whole kinship society consisting of several households using family names form the same clan in a country. As for the harvesting of forest products and crops, there is also the management tools that are integrated with the community since the first, in the form of restrictions governing access to the Community in the forest and plants in the specified period with a view to harvesting at the right time. This study aimed to 1) assess the shape and role of traditional institutions in managing resources Allang Affairs hamlet, 2) describe the role of the state in managing the resource Allang his village, 3) describe the level of public understanding of the rule sasi Allang country. The research activities carried out in August 2012. Places of research and data collection in the State Allang, District Leihitu West, Central Maluku regency, Maluku Province. The data used in this study is primary data and secondary data. Primary data is data obtained through in-depth research to society Allang country, field measurements to determine the performance of the hamlet and direct observations to obtain more detailed information. Secondary data is data relating to the state of the physical environment, socio-economic communities and other data related to the object of the study is available in the country Allang. Primary data was sourced from formal and informal respondents. Respondents formal like a king, priest and church council, kewang head and members. While respondents are informal community leaders (elders) and members of the local community. Data was collected using in-depth interviews, participant observation and field measurement. The results showed that the shape of the State Allang customary institutions in organizing and managing resources saniri hamlet consisting of State, King / Starch, kewang, Head of soa, marinyo and community participation. Sasi customary institutions that play a role in organizing and managing resources in the country hamlet Allang the state government, kewang and church council. Local institutions in the country play a very effective set Allang tenure and utilization of shared or individual to resources dusun dati, pusaka

Abstrak: The objective of this study was to describe the local institution 111 the management of forest resource and its implications for forest performance. This @ dy used a case study method. Data were collected through in-depht interviews, ~ctured interviews, observation and measurement. The result showed that the ~stitutional aspects in the forest management in the Nambluong community (") i-iiclude values, norms and lUles. The value of forest resources refers to the ~thropocentric orientation. The identified systems of knowledge and nOlms are ,rest categorization, cultivation system, descent groups, prohibition of cultivation ~ld cutting down trees at the riverside, prohibition of using certain types of wood, ~ohibition of stealing or destroying villages, farms and forests, as well as the ban ~ selling villages/farm land to outsiders. The lUles on the holding rights of forest ~sources refer to the rights to control and use as well traditional sanctions. These ~hts are based on the system of khinship and traditional leadership. Social & rms and lUle on the rights of the forest resources have implications to the :::::s iiistainable forest resource as the main sources of livelihood for the community. :::::s Qihese implications are demonstrated by the sustainable forest resource to o ~oduction of crops, dusun of sago and timber, which are have a ecologi function. k the secondary and primary forest areas, the measurement of perfOlmance found a good implication in performance. This performance is indicated by the sufficient number or density of plant species, which is of good category with the diversity of plant species at the moderate level. The institutional aspects that are tlUsted, obeyed and practiced in managing and utilizing forest have given the implications of a good management of forest resources. This is indicated by the clarity of tenure limits for the tang groups that have been recognized by the community, thus providing guaranteed security in utilizing forest. The regulation of the l!ilizing rights for the tang members can control the behavior of individuals who ~e forest resources excessively.

Judul: Approximation of the Median of Poisson Distribution Using the Relation of Poisson-Gamma Distribution
Abstrak: A major drawback of median is that median cannot usually be defined in closed form, even in the cases where their distribution functions are known. This study gives an approximation of the closed form for the median of the Poisson distribution by using the relation of Poisson-Gamma distribution. The approximation uses elementary techniques based on the monotonicity of certain sequences involving tail probabilities of the Poisson distribution and the Central Limit Theorem. Furthermore, a closed form expression for the mean absolute deviation 􀜧|􀜰􀰒 􀵆 􀜯􀝁􀝀􁈺􀜰􀰒􁈻| is also studied. The median is relevant because of the fact that it minimizes the mean absolute deviation of a Poisson random variable (􀜰􀰒􁈻 by considering median as central tendency.
