Menelisik Randai sebagai Teater Tradisional dan Identitas Budaya Minangkabau di Muaro Takung

Mon, 06 Jul 2026 08:38:13 +0800

Although Randai, as a traditional Minangkabau theater, has received attention in several previous studies, research that specifically discusses Randai as a cultural identity in Muaro Takung remains limited. This study aims to explore the role of Randai in strengthening Minangkabau cultural identity in Muaro Takung. This study employed a qualitative approach with an ethnographic design, involving 20 Randai studio participants selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through participatory observation, interviews, and document analysis, and were then analyzed thematically. The findings show that Randai is integrated into traditional rituals, such as birth, marriage, and death, without depending on a formal stage. Randai practice combines elements of silat, dance, music, and gurindam based on the values of adat basandi syarak. These findings indicate that Randai functions not only as a form of folk performing art but also as a medium for value transmission, the strengthening of social solidarity, and the affirmation of Minangkabau cultural identity. The conclusion of this study emphasizes the importance of preserving Randai studios by the younger generation as a strategy for maintaining the sustainability of local culture amid the currents of globalization. The implications of this study provide a theoretical contribution to the development of studies on folk performing arts and the cultural resilience of rantau, as well as practical implications for the integration of Randai into cultural education and the development of Sijunjung tourism. This study also opens opportunities for further research on the Randai diaspora in the broader context of Minangkabau society.

Azzahra Ulhusna, Hasbullah Malau — Thu, 23 Jul 2026 19:43:49 +0800

Post-disaster recovery at the nagari level plays an important role in ensuring the continuity of public services, the restoration of livelihoods, and the safety of affected communities. However, studies on the implementation of the nagari government’s role in post-disaster management remain limited. This study aims to analyze the role of the Nagari Matua Mudiak Government as an implementer, facilitator, and coordinator in the post-disaster rehabilitation and reconstruction process. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design in Nagari Matua Mudiak, Agam Regency. The research informants comprised five individuals representing the nagari government, the Disaster Preparedness Group, community leaders, volunteers, and affected residents, who were selected purposively. The data were analyzed through the stages of reduction, presentation, conclusion drawing, and verification, while data validity was assessed using source and technique triangulation. The results showed that the disaster affected 22–23 houses, displaced 593 people across 35 locations, damaged 19 road sections and 32 irrigation channels, and caused losses of at least IDR 7.415 billion. As an implementer, the nagari government recorded data on victims, managed assistance, mobilized mutual cooperation, and submitted proposals for the recovery of housing, livelihoods, and infrastructure. As a facilitator, the nagari government connected the community with government programs, donor agencies, volunteers, and technical institutions. Meanwhile, as a coordinator, the nagari government integrated information and allocated responsibilities among local actors and the regency government. Rehabilitation efforts have been implemented in the areas of basic services, logistics distribution, social support, and the restoration of access to affected areas.

Siti Nurfani, Endah Purwaningsih — Mon, 27 Jul 2026 15:07:28 +0800

CV Garam Tani Makmur Sejahtera Bersama (TMSB) markets salt products through three sales outlets serving various areas across West Sumatra Province. However, the company lacks spatial information on customer distribution, the reach of resale marketing, and regional market potential as a basis for marketing decision-making. This study aims to analyze the spatial distribution patterns of customers, the reach and intensity of salt resale marketing, and their relationship with regional market potential. The study employed a quantitative descriptive method with a spatial analysis approach. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, documentation, and customer location and resale marketing data and were subsequently analyzed using Average Nearest Neighbor (ANN), Point Distance, Kernel Density Estimation (KDE), and overlay analysis with ArcGIS 10.8. The results showed that 484 customers formed a clustered distribution pattern, with a Nearest Neighbor Ratio of 0.232779, while 51.86% of customers were located within a radius of 0–10 km from the sales outlets. The highest resale marketing intensity was concentrated in Padang City, while Agam Regency and West Pasaman Regency had high market potential but relatively low distribution intensity. These findings indicate that distance and market potential play a role in shaping customer distribution patterns and determining the reach and intensity of CV TMSB’s salt resale marketing in West Sumatra Province. This study provides a practical contribution in the form of spatial information that the company can use to evaluate marketing areas, optimize distribution, and develop market expansion strategies in high-potential areas.

Ahmad Radifan. S, Yuliarti — Wed, 29 Jul 2026 09:45:28 +0800

Cold lahar flooding following the eruption of Mount Marapi has caused significant damage to settlements, agricultural land, infrastructure, and the socioeconomic activities of communities in Agam Regency. This condition requires the active role of the nagari government as the frontline level of government in implementing disaster management and recovering affected areas. This study aimed to analyze the role of the Sungai Pua Nagari Government in managing cold lahar flooding following the eruption of Mount Marapi and to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors affecting its implementation. The study employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. Informants were selected purposively and comprised representatives of the Nagari Government, relevant agencies, and affected communities. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation and were subsequently analyzed through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the Sungai Pua Nagari Government performed its role through three aspects, namely as a regulator, facilitator, and implementer. As a regulator, the nagari government formulated policies and supported the management of disaster-prone areas. As a facilitator, the nagari government coordinated various parties and facilitated the distribution of assistance, the relocation of residents, the recovery of agricultural land, and infrastructure repairs. As an implementer, the nagari government was directly involved in rehabilitation, reconstruction, and community mutual-assistance activities. The implementation of these roles was supported by high community participation, interinstitutional coordination, and support from the government and volunteers. However, limited budgets, human resources, facilities and infrastructure, and the extensive affected area meant that the recovery process had not yet been fully optimized. This study concluded that the Sungai Pua Nagari Government had performed a strategic role in post-disaster management and recovery, but the effectiveness of its implementation still required stronger institutional and resource capacity. These findings provide practical implications for nagari governments in improving coordination, resource preparedness, and the sustainability of disaster management programs in disaster-prone areas.
