Abstract
Purpose of the study: The research aimed at developing a land border area management model based on the Nyamabraya
concept.
Methodology: To achieve the research objective, a study was conducted using the research paradigm for the development
of prototypical studies. The research data was collected through observation, documentation, interviews, and data analyzed
qualitatively. This research was carried out in the Province of Bali.
Main Findings: The study found (1) Nyamabraya-based land border management model; (2) suitability of models with
community characteristics in border areas, concept validity; model effectiveness and conformity with the local socio-
cultural environment, (3) valid quality Nyamabraya border management model and practical; (4) assessment of valid and
practical quality-based border management models for Nyamabraya and; (5) validity and practical quality-based
Nyamabraya border management models.
Applications of this study: Regional Government in the management of land border areas by prioritizing local wisdom
(nyamabraya) in their territory. The community will have trust and confidence and continue to conduct life based on the
local wisdom they believe in, both in managing resources and in reducing conflict.
Novelty/Originality of this study: The development program that has been implemented has not yet touched the land
border area so that the community remains disadvantaged, this is suspected to trigger conflicts in the use of resources in the
land border area. Through the development of a land border management model with a touch of the value of local wisdom
(nyamabraya) in community and state life will be steady, the Republic of Indonesia remains intact and sustainable.
Keywords: Development, Management Model, Border, Nyamabraya, Bali, Concept Validity.
INTRODUCTION
Management of border areas is needed to provide legal certainty regarding the scope, authority and area management limits
to achieve the welfare of the community in a province, city district, sub-district to the smallest unit. Bali Province has 8
(eight) districts and 1 (one) municipality. Each district has a minimum of three districts. The existing border issues with the
district have not been resolved completely, as there are still many problems with the delimitation of regional boundaries,
activities related to the economy and socio-culture of people living on the border that do not rule out the possibility of
mutual agreement between districts in the utilization and management of resources in border. All aspects of border
problems will affect the defense and security sector of a region.
Management of national borders is the final series of border formation processes. Sutisna (2008) asserts, that the
management aspects of national borders are continuous work. Because, in the management activities, there are many
aspects related to the implementation of the country's sovereignty itself, such as the maintenance of state boundary stakes,
the traffic of people and goods, as well as issues of defense and security of the country itself. As such, it is only natural that
border areas need an integrated and sustainable management mechanism because in the border space interactions and
neighbors will always occur, both positive and negative. Various development programs have been carried out by the
government to advance the border area, both physically and socio-economically and the culture of the people. However,
the condition of the border has not undergone much change, the community has remained lagging behind developments in
the central region.
Wuryandari et al., (2017) , research on alternative models for managing security in the border regions of Indonesia and
Timor Leste by using a combination of external and internal approaches to border management, recommending choices or
actions that can be taken to reduce security issues at the border in terms of both policy and implementation.
From various models of existing border area management, there are still problems in handling border issues that must be
found out. Handling the problem of border areas is not only the responsibility of the central government but also involves
the regional government. Management of border areas is still mostly focused on the sea border which is felt to have more
frequent and complex problems. However, land boundary problems also have a very complex impact on development, both
physical and socio-cultural and economic development. With the change in the direction of development for now and in
the future, the land sector needs legal certainty and law enforcement on border activities, so that physical, socio-cultural
and economic development in the border environment can run as expected.
