activities in the field related to the focus of problems and interview techniques, conducted by
researchers by making a series of question lists which contains the main issues that will be asked to
the informant or subject related to get the information or data needed. Based on the results of research
Gun Tembawang community do not recognize the Rupiah currency and in each transaction they use
the Malaysian Ringgit currency and in their daily needs the community is still dependent on the State
Neighbours namely Malaysia. The implementation of Bank Indonesia Regulation Number 17/3/2015,
Regarding the Obligation to Use the Rupiah in Gun Tembawang has not been optimal. Policy objectives

directions and policy objectives that have an impact on economic conditions, and social conditions .
The District Government and the Central Government immediately need to complete the road
infrastructure at the border that can connect Gun Tembawang to the village center, and the regional
government center, because the main factors which are most influential to change things as they are
now, are road infrastructure development and education.
