INTRODUCTION

Palu city as the capital of Central Sulawesi Province experienced a natural disaster earthquake of 7.7 RS, Tsunami and Liquefaction on September 28, 2018. The incident had a huge impact, costing lives and very significant asset damage. Based on data released by the National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB, 2018), out of a total of 1.2 million people before the disaster, the death toll reached 2,132 people, lost 531 lives and 11,165 family heads (KK) had to evacuate to 127 evacuation points, and 20,257 people were in dire need of shelter.
The phenomenon after the disaster is the displacement of the population. The Central Sulawesi Provincial Government through the REHAB-REKON Strategy has made several efforts in anticipation, including prioritizing the recovery of the settlement sector, through the construction of Temporary Housing (Huntara) and Permanent Occupancy (Huntap).
The determination of Huntap as a relocation area of affected communities through the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) has been carried out with a location in Duyu Village of Tatanga Subdistrict while Non-Governmental Institutions through Zhu Chi Buddhist Foundation are located in Tondo Village. Currently the community has inhabited the Huntap with the construction of “Risha” (simple healthy instant home) in hopes of helping people live in habitable dwellings after the disaster..
People living in Huntap are those Who are not allowed to return to live in their place of origin, they come from various affected places with different backgrounds and social and economic strata. It needs adjustment in all aspects because the process of change is inevitable.
The process of change itself can be experienced by everyone, both at the individual level (micro),groups in society (meso) and society as a broad group unity (macro) and can occur naturally or in a planned manner.
Social changes that occur suddenly usually cause the vulnerability of conflict triggered by a state of change that is too sudden colored by symptoms where the old behavioral order is no longer used as a guideline, while the new behavioral order is still confused.
The series of events that occur can be visualized in the form of studies through research to facilitate our understanding, about the disaster. Research title “Social Economic Conditions of Communities in The Post-Natural Disaster Relocation: Case of Permanent Residence of Tondo and Duyu Villages”. Exploratory research is the study of tracing, especially in the stabilization of concepts that will be used in a wider scope of research with a greater conceptual reach (Yusuf: 2017).
