Abstract

This article is based on our research on the management of Cross-Border
Posts (CBPs) in Belu that was conducted in three Cross Border Posts:
Mota’ain, Motamasin and Turiskain. We offer a model of CBP management
with two changes to the initial function design embedded with CBP
(CIQS/Custom, Immigration, Quarantine and Security). The changes we offer
are: (1) withdrawing the military personnel; and (2) assigning a new social
function. These changes are based on the facts of local’s historical, social and
economic backgrounds which are different from those of other areas. This
approach will absolutely affect the form of the current CBP. Interviews were
conducted to collect information related to the socio-cultural backgrounds
and economic needs among the people living around the border. With the
changes in mind, functions, it is expected that the CBP can meet the need of
the people living around the border.
Key words: cross border post function reform, military withdrawal, social
function.
Artikel ini merupakan hasil dari penelitian kami mengenai pengelolaan Pos
Lintas Batas (PLB) di Belu yang dilakukan atas tiga PLB yaitu Mota’ain,
Motamasin dan Turiskain. Kami mengusulkan sebuah pengelolaan PLB
dengan dua perubahan penting yang ada di dalam fungsi lama PLB
(CIQS/Custom, Immigration, Quarantine and Security). Perubahan yang
kami usulkan adalah: (1) ditariknya personel militer dari PLB; dan (2)
mengimbuhkan fungsi sosial. Perubahan yang kami usulkan ini berdasarkan
pertimbangan kesejarahan, faktor sosial dan ekonomi masyarakat lokal.
Metode riset yang kami lakukan adalah melalui wawancara mendalam
terhadap pelaku lintas batas dan pemerintah lokal untuk mendapatkan data
yang diperlukan. Perubahan dalam fungsi PLB ini diharapkan dapat
memenuhi kebutuhan masyarakat lokal.
Kata-Kata Kunci: perubahan fungsi pos lintas batas, penarikan militer,
fungsi sosial.
