THE STRATEGY FOR DEVELOPING LANDSLIDE DISASTER MANAGEMENT OF STATE AGENCY IN SOUTHERN REGION

Abstract

This research paper was conducted to analyze the environments that influenced landslide disaster management of state agency in the southern region. Secondly, to access the concepts used to formulate the strategies of landslide disaster management of state agency in the southern region. Lastly, the research aimed to summarize and offer the strategies of landslide disaster management of state agency in the southern region. The research was policy research which was divided into Three procedures. The first procedure was the study of necessary information and the need of landslide disaster management of state agency in the southern region, and the analysis of environments that influenced to support landslide disaster management of state agency in the southern region. The data was collected by using the document’s analysis and synthesis together and the in-depth interview of 6 relevant people on landslide disaster management from the state agency in the southern region. The second procedure was the assessment of the concepts used in strategies formulation. The data was collected from expert using Ethnographic Delphi Future Research. The third procedure was the strategies summary and proposal. The data was collected from the interview of 12 stakeholders.

            The research instruments were semi-structured interview and questionnaires. The Statistic used for data analysis consisted of analytic descriptive, median, mode and interquartile range.
