Partisipasi masyarakat harus ada dalam semua hal, termasuk dalam memelihara kebersihan lingkungan. Lingkungan yang bersih akan mencerminkan kondisi orang-orang yang tinggal di dalamnya. Pemberdayaan lingkungan merupakan cita-cita bersama sehingga juga harus diciptakan secara bersama-sama pula. Berdayanya lingkungan ditandai dengan kondisi lingkungan yang mendukung aktivitas masyarakatnya, artianya aktivitas masyarakat tidak akan terganggu dikarenakan alasan lingkungannya. Misalnya, dikarenakan lingkungan yang kotor menyebabkan gangguan kesehatan sehingga menghalangi aktivitas masyarakat. Pencemaran lingkungan dan segala permasalahannya dapat diatasi jika semua komponen yang ada mau peduli dan bertanggung jawab. Melalui partisipasi aktif, masyarakat diharapkan mau terlibat secara langsung sehingga akan memberikan kontribusi yang nyata sehingga memberikan pengaruh yang besar. Partisipasi masyarakat dalam menciptakan lingkungan yang berdaya tidak akan terjadi jika partisipasi aktif tidak terbentuk. Partisipasi masyarakat bisa dimulai dari kepedulian masyarakat terhadap informasi-informasi lingkungan, baik manfaat maupun dampak. Kemudian informasi yang ada semakin diperkuat sehingga menjadi sebuah pengetahuan tentang lingkungan. Selanjutnya, lingkungan bisa direkayasa sesuai dengan keinginan masyarakat sehingga bisa menjadi pendukung dalam setiap aktivitasnya.

The form of direct supervision was a form of preventive supervision (Concurrent Control) and initial supervision (Feed Forward Control), while the form of indirect supervision was feedback control in which this supervision was used to measure the results of an activity that had been carried out.

This article discusses the fragmentation of religious authority in Pekanbaru and Pontianak, Indonesia, focusing on the local mui (Indonesian Muslim Scholar Council). Employing qualitative methods, the mui Pontianak and Pekanbaru experience similar religious authority fragmentation due to the human agency. Members of the mui Pontianak and Pekanbaru represent Islamic organisations in Indonesia’s fight for the religious authority of their Islamic organisations, not for the cohesion of religious authority in the mui. Because religious authority has the desired will, it is no wonder that outside the mui Pontianak and Pekanbaru many Muslim figures struggle to preserve it. Individuals challenge the religious authority of the mui Pontianak and Pekanbaru. Some of them are local Muslim preachers. They strengthen and preserve their religious authority by preaching Islam, thus contributing to the growth of the mui fragmentation in these two cities.
