CONTRIBUTION FOR INDONESIAAnggita Imagery – Doctoral ProgramsIndonesia is a country that has a very broad region, covering land and sea. Indonesia's land area consists of Islands accounted 17,504 Island (BPS data, 2015). The border sea borders with Indonesia 10 countries, while for the region of Indonesia, bordering three countries, namely Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, and Timor-Leste's land border line length overall is 2914.1 km. The development of cities in the region borders – neither of which are in mainland or smaller islands – as centres of growth in the region and the home country (frontier regions) at the moment still far from expectations. Failed, keterisolasian and limitations of accessibility, as well as the limitations of the service is a condition that typically occurs. For decades Indonesia merdeka, the condition of proper border region is the gateway of the country is still far from ideal conditions. High poverty levels, the quality of education and health are still low is the main issue at hand. Development of the border region have a very tight linkages with national development missions, especially to guarantee the integrity and sovereignty of the territory, the defense of national security, as well as improving the welfare of the people in the border region. Approach to development of border regions of the country currently is to use the approach to welfare by not leaving a security approach.One of my contribution to efforts to enhance the prosperity and development in the border region as a junior researcher at the Centre for research and development of the region (Puslitbangwil) University of Mulawarman. I entered the tag along many activities aimed at improving the welfare and development in the border region of East Kalimantan province (and then North Borneo). Research has been done that is about the development of the region some Mahakam Ulu Regency in East Kalimantan and Nunukan Regency Malinau Regency in North Borneo, identify the potential of each region and then formulate policies that can be done in an attempt to increase the potential. Research-research conducted in cooperation with the Government, both the provincial or district level, so that research results can be relied upon by the local government for the policy. Doing research in the area of the Interior, left behind and isolated like in this border area is not easy, with a very difficult terrain, a condition that is not worth it but this must be done for the sake of increasing the welfare of the inhabitants of the border. The term blusukan else do, listening to the complaints and see what the situation required the immediate community, whether Government policy that has been given to the public benefit or whether there are gaps in the application of the policy. In addition to retrieving the data in many border regions, we also discuss with regional leaders in order to find out what happens when the barriers to the implementation of the policy and more.A recent study that we did as a team in the puslitbangwil was when formulating the masterplan kebinamargaan border region in North Borneo, the masterplan is made to the Government of North Borneo has a blueprint plan to build the infrastructure of roads and bridges in the border region of the province of North Borneo. By knowing the potentialities of economic, social and culture that exists in the border region so we can plan the territories where the priority is to be opened in the course of the access. Due to the construction of the area will develop quickly if its good. during the development of the border regions is hampered due to the difficulty of reaching border areas that make the area became isolated and left behind.For a little over 4 years to junior researchers in Puslitbangwil, do some research into some areas of the border I noticed that potential border regions are very large, their local wisdom in maintaining environmental sustainability is very powerful but because it terhambatnya the infrastructure so that complicate the public in accessing education, health care and distributing agricultural and plantations make them difficult to improve her life. On that basis, I see that the welfare of society existing in border regions of the Interior, tersiolir and left behind can be enhanced through the development efforts in the field of tourism with the hold on local wisdom and environmental sustainability. With the development in the field of tourism potential of the region will be able to directly optimize by local people and those who will be able to directly receive benefits.
