| Summary: | Indonesia is a tropical archipelagic country with 6% of the world's potential
water availability. However, perhaps it has been more than a half century,
Indonesia cannot avoid the growing risk of water scarcity. The social-economic
factors, green land transitions, water pollution and climate change, all of them
have contributed to built an unusual hydrological cycle. Facing these issues,
several important and useful adaptation and mitigation actions were carried out
by the government. But, Indonesia still has a number of urgent reasons that make
this limited water management is very crucial, such as the water deficits risk
caused by the high fluctuation of water availability, rapid water demand growth
and excessive water use, pollution, as well as the risk of extreme drought in the
near future.
This background has motivated us to conduct a research in order to propose the
development of a conjunctive water management system through the
WWTP-MAR-CWM scheme in Indonesia. Based on this idea, various literature
studies were carried out, and the SWOT-AHP analysis method were adopted, to
evaluate the potential for its application in Indonesia and find out the list of
improvement strategies needed. As a result, twenty-one SWOT factors were
identified. AHP analysis with eight experts of integrated water resources
management then concluded: (1) a massive support from the government for
water infrastructure projects (17,5%), (2) good cooperation with the donors or the
non-governmental organizations (7,5%), and (3) an adequate legislative
framework (6,0%), are the three main strategic factors that need to be maximized
and prioritized by Indonesian water managers when they will implement this
WWTP-MAR-CWM scheme sustainably. Twelve strategies were then suggested
based on these relative importance weights. Hopefully, this study can bring some
useful knowledges, inspire and motivate the application and the development of Indonesian water research topic related to it. |
