Judul: Studi Kasus: Pengelolaan Sampah Terpadu Gerakan Peduli Lingkungan (GPL) Perumahan Pondok Pekayon Indah, Kelurahan Pekayon Jaya, Bekasi Selatan
Abstrak: Handling of waste that are currently in Indonesia are to use the conventional system. The system cannot solve the problem with the optimal waste. Community-based waste management is one way to overcome problems of waste that occurs in Indonesia. One example of waste management community-based integrated waste management, namely the Gerakan Peduli Lingkungan (GPL) of Citizens Perumahan Pondok Pekayon Indah, Bekasi Selatan. Some waste management program that has been done by the environmental movement concerned, among other process of sorting waste, household composting of scale and area, planting and cultivation of seedlings, and the biopori hole. GPL is the program provides many benefits to the citizens and the environment, but will be required in the implementation of good cooperation between stakeholders such as citizens, the government and the private sector. GPL waste management program that has been running for six years to provide benefits that can be felt directly by the changes in the environment, especially PPI process of sorting waste, composting, planting and cultivation of seedlings although not all residents participate in this program. However, based on the evaluation based on the vision and mission of the GPL there is a congruence between the objectives will be achieved with the results obtained.

Judul: Studi Di Perumahan Griya Pancoran Mas Indah Rw 14, Kelurahan Rangkapanjaya Baru, Kecamatan Pancoran Mas, Kota Depok
Abstrak: The waste management in Depok is a prime problem caused by rapid inhabitant growth with its social and economic activity so that increasing the quantity of middens. In order to solve the problems, the local government launched the Household Composting Program in Griya Pancoran Mas Indah, 14th administrative unit, Rangkapanjaya Baru Sub-district, Pancoran Mas District, Depok City, held from June 2008 until now. The target of this program is 310 households in Griya Pancoran Mas Indah. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of this program that is behavioral change caused by household participation level on this program. The analyses used in this study are interviews and questionnaires. The amounts of 77 respondents were chosen randomly and represented each neighborhood association. The tools of analysis were used namely frequency table, cross tabulation, Spearman Correlation Test, and Chi-Square Correlation Test. The implementation of this program was to fare well because the objectives, collective action, and collective agreement are appropriate to the terms of reference, however the stakeholders was not perform their function well and the phase of program was not covering on monitoring and evaluation phase yet. The result of primary data tabulation shows that the household participation level on this program tended to high because of the influence of internal factors (age, level of education, level of revenue, duration of work and be a resident of Griya Pancoran Mas Indah) and external factors (area of yard, attendance frequency and elucidation of program). The household participation level affected behavioral change (knowledge, attitude, and action) to manage domestic waste. According to the result of this study, the composting program in Griya Pancoran Mas Indah was successfully conducted on 14th administrative unit and can be implemented in the other sub-district in order to improve any case which not appropriate to terms of reference.

Judul: Mitochondrial DNA Gene Organization and Phylogenetic Relationship of Naja siamensis
Abstrak: Naja siamensis is one of Asiatic cobra in the Family of Elapidae, known as a cryptic snake. It has many morphological variations that lead to misidentification. Misidentification can cause the wrong concept in developing antivenom types due to high snakebite cases occur in Thailand. Thus, an accurate species identification using a molecular approach is crucially required. Mitochondrial DNA has been used widely in snake molecular studies. These studies were aimed to determine the arrangement of the N. siamensis partial mitochondrial genes using reptile-oriented primers and to reveal the phylogenetic relationship among other species of Asian cobra. DNA extraction was carried out based on the standard DNA salting-out protocol and was conducted by bioinformatics analysis using BLASTn and MEGA 6 software. Gene annotation was performed against N. kaouthia complete genome. A total of 3121 bp of N. siamensis mtDNA genes were sequenced consisting of partial of six regions: 16S rRNA, ND1, tRNA-Ile, CRII region, tRNA-Leu, tRNA-Gln, and COI genes. The mtDNA gene organization of N. siamensis was predicted to has a similar pattern with the common Elapidae mtDNA gene organization. This study showed that there is a monophyletic form in Naja genus and N. kaouthia is the closest species with N. siamensis based on partial 16S rRNA and ND1 gene.
