MODELLING CONSTRUCTION MIGRANT LABOR

The globalization that happened in the world at this time does not only cause the rotation of investment and fast information, but also it relates to the problem of labor.  Many decisive factor so as the Malaysian country became the choice of the migrant labor from Indonesia. Geographically, Malaysia was the closest neighbour of Indonesian country. Transportation were relative easy, cheap and fast. On the other hand, the community of the two countries came from the group of the Malaya ethnic group with the language that was similar and had a closed social relation and same culture since long ago, so as facilitated in interacting (Darwis, 2004)

A migration network has also been created between Indonesia and Malaysia that has increased the coexistence between worker s from the two countries. In building its economy, Malaysia was faced with the problem of labor shortage, especially in the sectors that require manual (unskilled) labor. This situation was made even worse by the fact that Malaysian labor, especially those who have attained medium or high education, could not accept to work in plantations, mines and construction. On the other hand, Indonesia was facing a problem of excess labor because of the limited opportunity in the labor market and the low per capita wages paid (Mantra, 1997).

This research will design particularly to develop a model in the quality and competence of Indonesian migrant labor in construction sector, especially through Competency Based Training.  The objectives of the research are (1) to identify the existing condition of Indonesian Labour Migrant in Malaysia, (2) to identify the general processes within the Indonesian migrant labor in Malaysia (3) to propose a model of the Indonesian migrant labor in Malaysia and (4) to calibrate and to validate the model developed

To identify element involved in migrant labor, System Theory is going to be applied.  A survey from public and private sector organizations which involved in migrant labor is going to be conducted and analyzed.  A conceptual model of migrant labor is developed through Focus Group Discussion (FGD).  The final steps are calibrated, validated and simulated the model developed.

Key words: migrant labor, construction, modeling and system theory

MODELLING RISK MANAGEMENT IN BOT PROJECTS

Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) is perceived as a risk sensitive procurement method. In a limited concession time, project sponsor (investor) is expected to achieve return on investment and profit by the end of concession period.  Theoretically, BOT investors have to manage greater scope of risks than the ones on traditional construction projects.  Various kinds of risk factors, such as public policy, economic, politic and environment issues of a country are to be considered.  The scheme is considered risk sensitive.  Akintoye (1998) suggests that a Private Finance Project (including BOT) should satisfy two fundamental requirements: secure value for money and allocate risks appropriately.

The objectives of the research are (1) to apply a system theory as a general frame work to approach the elements involved in the research area, (2) to identify the general processes within the risk management framework of BOT projects; and (3) to propose a conceptual model of risk management in BOT projects (4) to calibrate and to validate the model developed

A system theory could be used to investigate all of parties involved on such Build Operate and Transfer (BOT) projects.  A survey from public and private sector organizations which involved in BOT projects is going to be conducted and analyzed.  A conceptual model of Risk Management on BOT projects is developed through Focus Group Discussion (FGD).  The final steps are calibrated, validated and simulated the model developed.

Key words : BOT, risk management, construction, system theory and modeling

MEMILIH KRITERIA PENILAIAN RESIKO BERDASARKAN TINGKAT FREKUENSI TERJADINYA PADA TAHAP PELAKSANAAN KOSTRUKSI PROYEK DENGAN METODA ANALITICAL HIERARCHY PROCESS

ABSTRAK

Makalah ini akan menguraikan bagaimana Analitical Hierarchy Process dapat memodelkan resiko-resiko yang ada pada tahap pelaksanaan konstruksi proyek dengan cara memberikan bobot penilaian atas frekuensi kemunculan resiko tersebut. Pembobotan bisa dilakukan dengan dua cara, yaitu : Pembobotan secara langsung atau dengan menggunakan Analitical Hierarchy Process. AHP merupakan suatu sistem pembuat keputusan dengan menggunakan model matematis.
AHP membantu dalam menemukan nilai skala prioritas dari beberapa kriteria penilaian resiko pada proyek konstruksi dengan melakukan analisa perbandingan berpasangan dari masing-masing kriteria. Sistem Pengelolaan Resiko yang dimaksud dengan kriteria tersebut adalah kejadian-kejadian yang sudah diidentifikasi sebagai suatu potensi resiko yang mingkin akan terjadi.

Key words: AHP, Analisis Resiko, Proyek Konstruksi
