JOKOWI BERAKSI: 7 BUMD Dilibatkan Tata Kampung Kumuh

JOKOWI BERAKSI: 7 BUMD Dilibatkan Tata Kampung Kumuh: Compact_jokowi_kumuh
JAKARTA--Pemprov DKI menggandeng tujuh BUMD-nya melalui anggaran corporate social responsibility (CSR) untuk turut medanai penataan kampung kumuh mulai tahun depan.

Gubernur DKI Joko Widodo dalam sambutannya mengatakan selain BUMD, pendanaan diharapkan dapat diperoleh pula melalui BUMN, perusahaan swasta, maupun developer.

“Kalau hanya mengandalkan dari APBD DKI, proses ini akan membutuhkan waktu yang sangat panjang. Saya mengajak pihak lain untuk terlibat, yang mendapatkan keuntungan dari Jakarta, dapat berbagi pada yang kecil,” tuturnya di Balai Kota, Jakarta, Senin (17/12).

Menurutnya, kesenjangan antara kaya-miskin, mampu-tidak mampu, terlihat sangat mencolok di Jakarta. Sebab itu, perlu ada penataan untuk mengatasi kesenjangan yang ada.

Jokowi sebelumnya sempat menyebutkan dana yang dibutuhkan untuk penataan satu kampung sekitar Rp30-40 miliar. Selain mencakup pembangunan rumahnya, dalam proses penataan tersebut juga akan dibangun berbagai infrastruktur lainnya seperti MCK, ruang interaksi sosial, dan ruang terbuka hijau.

Pada kesempatan itu, Pemprov DKI menjalin kerja sama dengan PT Jasindo, PT Deon Media Indonesia, PT Bank DKI, PT Pembangunan Jaya Ancol, PT Jakarta Propertindo, PD Pembangunan Saran Jaya, dan PT Jakarta Industrial Pulogadung.

Sampai 2011, Direktori Kumuh Badan Pusat Statistik mencatat masih terdapat 392 perkampungan kumuh yang tersebar di DKI Jakarta.

Meskipun begitu, Kepala Dinas Perumahan dan Gedung Pemerintahan DKI Novizal menuturkan jumlah tersebut sudah berkurang dibandingkan kondisi pada 2004 dengan jumlah 640 RW kumuh, dan 2008 (416 RW kumuh).

Adapun RW kumuh di Jakarta, paling banyak terdapat di kawasan Jakarta Utara dengan jumlah 96 RW. Kemudian di Jakarta Barat (92 RW), Jakarta Timur (75 RW), Jakarta Pusat (63 RW), Jakarta Selatan (60 RW), dan Kepulauan Seribu (6 RW).

Menurut Novizal, dalam program penataan kampung, yang menjadi sasaran utama adalah kampung-kampung kumuh yang ada di Jakarta. meskipun begitu, sampai saat ini belum ditentukan kampung mana saja.

Proses penataan, jelasnya, akan dilakukan berdasarkan pengusulan dari kelompok masyarakat dalam satu kampung. Dari proposal yang diajukan, akan dilakukan proses evaluasi, sampai kemudian ditentukan apakah kampung tersebut memang membutuhkan penataan atau tidak.  (if)

Five Marketing Tactics for 2013

Five Marketing Tactics for 2013:

2013 ResolutionsWe are a few weeks from the beginning of the new year and one of the things a business or website can do is make a new year's resolution to make their online presence better. For any website looking to improve their website traffic and sales, we offer five marketing tactics for 2013.

  1. Diversify your incoming traffic - There are too many website owners that come to us with big drops in web traffic due to Panda or Penguin. While, ever website should try and get SEO traffic, no website should be dependent upon simply Google to bring them traffic. Every website should have a healthy mix of traffic from social media and other websites with traffic links. This ensures you will not only have good SEO as social media and links add to high rankings, but another source of traffic if your rankings do drop.
  2. Start or restart your blog with the right keywords - Blogging is like taking vitamins. You know you should do it, but you forget about it or you simply do it incorrectly. Every website should have a blog, and it should be updated at least once a week. The blog should be on topics related to your website, so if you sell clothing, you should write about how to dress. Secondly, use the Google keyword tool to find keywords people are looking for already, to ensure you get traffic that already exists
  3. Get more links from more sources - Google is getting really good at sniffing out links that are automated and not genuine. So you need to be genuine in your link building strategies, which means issuing press releases, writing original one-time content for guest blogs, creating images that people can embed in their websites and participating and asking for links at any event you attend. 
  4. Understand the anatomy of a keyword - One issue we see a lot is called over-optimization that triggers a Google Penguin penalty. This tactic is using the same keyword over and over again on your website so you can rank for one particular word. Understanding the anatomy of a keyword can prevent over optimization. For example looking at SEO Services, we would use anchor texts like best SEO services, Princeton SEO Services, or SEO Services for business. All of the keywords have a root of SEO Services, but they are all different in their anchor text (what's linked) so they don't trip up any Penguin issues and you end having a wider variety of keywords.
  5. Know your reputation online - Everyone has at one point or another Googled themselves. What people find can either be self satisfying or a bit of a shock. Getting a handle on your online reputation can ensure what you see when you Google yourself is what other people see as well.

Getting a marketing plan together in late 2012 is a great way to start 2013 on a great note so you can kill it in the new year.
