<![CDATA[Law Number 1 of 2011 in Article 98 paragraph (3) concerning Housing and Settlements, it is explained that the regional government has the authority to conduct arrangements and determine the location of slum housings and urban slums. This is what underlies the Regional Government of Siak Regency to have a role in identifying various local wisdoms in its region. The existence of the local wisdom of the indigenous people of Siak can be viewed from the legal aspect of structuring the location of housing and slums as mandated by legislation and implemented in the Letter Regent Decree Number 523/HK/KPTS/2014 concerning Determination of Slum and Slum Housing Locations in Siak Regency and Regent Decree Number 302/HK/KPTS/2017 concerning Slum and Slum Residential Housing Locations in Siak Regency. The result is the existence of the local wisdom of Indigenous people of Kampung Buatan II, Koto Ghasib Subdistrict did not work optimally, because it had not maximized the role of the Riau Malay Customary Institution in Siak Regency. However, the noble values of local wisdom in Malay indigenous communities in structuring the location of housing and slums are known from their ancestors expressed in a proverb or customary expression in preserving nature around us to create a clean, healthy life by understanding the meaning of development, understanding the ins and outs of religion and culture and the social norms of the people, so that development is truly beneficial for all levels of society.]]>

<![CDATA[ERP systems are integrated information systems that can be applied in both business and non-business organizations. For business organizations it covers the entire functional enterprise that includes accounting and finance, production, sales, purchasing, personnel and other functions. These functions are separated by software modules and interconnected with the integrated data center. Implementation of ERP systems does not always provide satisfaction for end-users. This paper examines the quality of information systems and service that impact on end-user satisfaction, specifically banking companies located in Pekanbaru, Indonesia. Data analysis results reveal that the information systems and service quality partially affect end-users’ satisfaction with ERP systems and thus these findings, remind the designers of ERP systems to improve the quality information systems and the availability of user friendly service.]]>

<![CDATA[Demographic transition refers to the declining of birth and death rates and is followed by a reduction in population growth rates. This demographic change is caused by demographic factors (birth, death and migration) and non-demographic factors (social and economic). Fertility is an important factor in population control which refers to the demographic transition. As fertility in control, it is expected to solve population problems. Riau Province has a relatively low rate of fertility reduction from other provinces in Sumatra. This study aims to look at the effect of per capita GRDP, the number of working women and poverty on fertility in regencies / cities in Riau Province. This study uses secondary data with data from 12 districts / cities in Riau Province in 2010 - 2017. This study has independent variables namely per capita GRDP, the number of working women and the number of poverty people. The analysis technique used is panel data regression which is a combination of time series data and cross section. Based on the results of research carried out per capita GRDP, the numbers of working women and poverty together have a significant effect on fertility in Riau Province. And partially per capita GRDP and the number of working women have a significant effect on fertility in Riau Province.

<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the effect of cash flows on investment decision that is moderated by financial constraint and mispricing. The population of the study was all listed-manufacturing firms in Indonesia from 2014 to 2016. Samples were chosen based on the availability of firms’ financial report covering the period of the study. By using moderated regression analysis where financial constraint and mispricing as moderating variables, the study concluded that financial constraint weakens the effect of cash flow on investment. Although lower financially constrained-firms have an opportunity to choose their source of funding, they prefer to finance their investment from an internal source of funding (from cash flows) due to lower risk. Furthermore, mispricing does not have a role as a moderating variable. In this condition, overvalued firms are indifferent from choosing the source of funding. Finally, when financial constraint and mispricing are signed as a moderating variable, they weaken the effect of cash flow on investment. It means that firms with lower financial constraint and overvaluation prefer to use external funding by issuing new common stocks because it provides a lower cost of capital.]]>
