ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: The maternal mortality rate is an indicator that reflects the mother's health status, especially the risk of death for the mother during pregnancy and childbirth. Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) has a close relationship with efforts to increase human development. Therefore, efforts are needed to reduce MMR by identifying the factors that influence MMR. AIM: The aim of the study was to analyze the factors causing the incidence of Maternal Death in East Java Province. METHOD(S): The research design used in this research is a quantitative research using descriptive-analytical. The population of this research is districts/cities in East Java Province, with a sample of 38 districts/cities. The research period starts from August to September 2021. Data analysis using grouping and percentage of cases. RESULT(S): The results of the study found that cases of maternal death in East Java due to postpartum hemorrhage in 2021 were 131 cases. Cases due to hypertension as many as 115 cases. Cases due to infection as many as 25 cases. The incidence of maternal death due to abortion is 1 case. There were 13 cases of maternal death due to blood disorders. There were 6 cases of maternal death due to metabolic disorders - cases of maternal death due to Heart as many as 54 cases. Maternal deaths due to COVID-19 were 793 cases. CONCLUSION(S): Factors causing maternal death in East Java Province, namely, hypertension bleeding, infection, abortion, blood disorders, heart metabolic disorders, and COVID-19. The most influential factor in maternal mortality in 2021 is COVID-19.Copyright © 2023 Maharani Maharani, Sutrisno Sutrisno.
ABSTRACT
East Java Province has the fourth-highest number of COVID-19 cases among all other provinces Indonesia. This study aimed to examine the spatial effect on confirmed cases of COVID-19 and the risk factors. Data were analyzed using Geoda software to obtain Global Moran's Index and Local Spatial Autocorrelation (LISA) and QGIS 2.8.1 software to make a map. Moran's I scatter plots also used to exploring the bivariate association between COVID-19 cases and potential predictors. The Global Moran's I statistics value shows spatial clustering in COVID-19 cases across the municipalities of East Java Province (Moran's I=0.3986). A positive spatial autocorrelation was observed between COVID-19 cases and population density (Moran's I = 0.2059), vaccination coverage (Moran's I = 0.322), the number of laboratories (Moran's I = 0.2322), ratio of health worker (Moran's I = 0.1617), and household (Moran's I = 0.0866). In comparison, a negative spatial correlation was observed between COVID-19 cases and The Enforcement of Restrictions on Community Activities' levels (Moran's I =-0,2420), average number of family member (Moran's I = 0.0115). The LISA cluster map shows that there were 3 hot spots (Surabaya, Gresik, and Sidoarjo) and 3 cold spots (Sampang, Pamekasan, and Sumenep). Copyright © 2023, Institute of Medico-legal Publication.

ABSTRACT
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the living conditions of rural women in coastal areas of East Java became increasingly difficult. The aim of this study is to reveal the important roles of women and their social resilience to survive during the pandemic. This research was conducted in poor coastal villages in the province of East Java, namely: 1) Surabaya City with multicultural characteristics;2) Situbondo Regency with Javanese–Madurese mixed cultural characteristics and 3) Tuban Regency with Javanese cultural characteristics. The subjects of this study were married women who have children. Data collection was conducted for 2 months (June-July 2021) using a structured interview technique (questionnaire) with 185 respondents and an in-depth interview technique with 18 informants, including women and local leaders. The results of this study indicate the "coping” and "adaptive” capacities of women during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although women's work in these coastal villages was categorized as unskilled work generating little income, women were still working to overcome the direct threat of the pandemic through available resources such as skills, time, family, and neighborhood ties. However, this study shows only a few capacities of the "transformative” type, whereby women have access to assets and assistance from wider social and political networks. This study shows a strong patriarchal culture influencing the lives of poor coastal rural women, but also reveals that the role of women was very important in maintaining family health and meeting income shortages for family needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. © 2022,Journal of International Women''s Studies.

ABSTRACT
Pujon Kidul, Malang is a village tourism that offers agricultural potential as a tourist attraction to prosper the communities. Pandemic Covid-19 has caused instability in all sectors, including agricultural sector. The agricultural sector is the last line of defense, but that does not mean the pandemic has no impact on farming activities. On the contrary, the pandemic has slowed global economic growth and social growth, particularly in agriculture;as a result, social capital and local wisdom must be strengthened. As a result, this study was carried out to support Covid-19's Resilience Area in the tourism village of Pujon Kidul by investigating the role of social capital and resilience. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and the Structural Equation Model (SEM) were used in this study. We employed structural equation model using AMOS program which the result of the study shows that the residents of Pujon Kidul Village Tourism already have favorable social capital circumstances, which are characterized by a high level of trust among residents and good social network. This trust and social network support the Covid-19 Resilience Village program's effectiveness. So far, the currently used model could explain the relationship between social capital and community resilience. © 2022 Editura Universitatii din Oradea. All rights reserved.
ABSTRACT
This study investigates theories from the strategic entrepreneurship literature related to strategic entrepreneurship mindset, strategic entrepreneurship leadership, and entrepreneurial value creation. A sample of 85 SMEs was taken from the SME sector in East Java, Indonesia, using a non-probability sampling method with a purposive sampling technique. The data collection process was a survey with questionnaires distributed directly to the SME owners. The data analysis was carried out using a structural equation measurement model (PLS-SEM) and included outer model analysis, inner model analysis, mediation testing, and hypothesis testing. This study contributes to the strategic entrepreneurship leadership variable, which is a mediating variable. The study confirms this theory for SMEs to provide broader scientific ideas related to strategic entrepreneurship theory. The small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that were looked at can create entrepreneurial value through benefits and added value for individuals, organizations, and the social environment. This can contribute to progress and sustainability, which will help the economy in Indonesia and give decision-makers more information.
ABSTRACT
Covid-19 regional percent of cases is one of the regional variables that dynamically interact across space and time. It exhibits a time trend, and at one point in time, it may form clusters of regions with similar values. Since Covid-19 is an infectious disease, the regional percent of cases also exhibits spatial dependence across regions. The time trend indicates the possible time lag of the spatial dependence, and the spatial dependence analysed at one point in time may be undetected. This situation was observed in the 38 regions of East Java. It gives an incorrect impression of the nature of spatial dependence, leading to an improper policy formulation. To capture the spatial interaction more accurately, this study accommodates the time-dependent dynamic nature of the variable into the formulation of the Moran's I index for a set of spatial panel data. A simulation study is conducted to confirm the accuracy of the proposed index, especially when the degree of contemporaneous spatial autocorrelation is high. The proposed index also succeeds in detecting the time-lagged spatial autocorrelation of East Java's Covid-19 regional percent of cases. It provides a better understanding and policy recommendations regarding the spread of this disease in this province.
ABSTRACT
The impact of the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic varies as each country has a different capacity to stop the virus transmission and apply social distancing. A densely populated country, such as Indonesia, tends to face challenges in implementing social distancing due to population characteristics. The Indonesian government focuses on the medical aspect as this virus is new and has been deadly with a high transmission rate. Meanwhile, the non-medical risk during the pandemic is still unclear. The main objective of this study is to assess the non-medical risk at the village level in two agglomeration cities of Central Java: Greater Surakarta and Surabaya. The methodologies use a risk index, derived from the risk reduction concept. The hazard refers to the death toll, while the vulnerability relates to parameters such as disaster, social and public facilities, health facilities, economics and demography. Further, the parameters were weighted based on expert judgement derived using analytical hierarchy process (AHP). The study found that the disaster aspect had the highest weight (0.38), followed by health facilities (0.31), economics (0.17), social-public facilities (0.11) and demography (0.04). The standard deviations of those parameters were relatively low, between 0.12 and 0.25. A low vulnerability index (0.05–0.36) was observed to be dominant in both study areas. There are 11 villages in Greater Surakarta and 30 villages in Greater Surabaya with high vulnerability index. Disaster-prone areas, low economic growth, lack of health facilities and aged demographic structure significantly added to this vulnerability. Further, a high-risk index (0.67–1.00) is observed in three villages in Greater Surabaya and one village in Greater Surakarta. These villages are relatively close to the city centre and have good accessibility. Furthermore, these four villages experienced the severest impact of the pandemic because the furniture and tourism sectors were their primary industries.

ABSTRACT
Households in Indonesia consume rice as the main source of carbohydrates, but in some areas where cassava production centers, the source of carbohydrates is not only rice but also cassava and processed cassava, including tiwul. The purpose of this study was to analyze the preference for tiwul consumption for all carbohydrate foods and to analyze the share of tiwul expenditure on carbohydrate foods. The research was conducted in the village with the highest consumption of tiwul, namely Sudimoroharjo Village, Wilangan, Nganjuk, East Java, Indonesia. The research data using primary data were collected by direct interviews with 46 households. The research data includes tiwul attribute data consisting of color, taste, availability, and price. Also, data on consumption and expenditure of all carbohydrates consumed by the sample households, namely tiwul, rice, corn, cassava, sweet potato, and potatoes. Data analysis used expenditure share analysis and Conjoint analysis. The results showed that the share of tiwul expenditure was the second largest after rice (79.98%), tiwul (16.39%), potatoes (2.78%), sweet potato (0.54%), cassava (0.2%), and the smallest was corn (0.11%). The preference for tiwul consumption was dominated by taste, price, color, and availability with relative importance values of 49.89%, 30.48%, 10.02%, and 9.61%, respectively. Promotion of the Tiwul Consumption Movement is needed, especially for the young generation and children, to increase tiwul consumption and reduce household dependence on rice.
