- Abstract
In early 2019, rabies outbreak in Dompu, West Nusa Tenggara killed five people and 527 people were bitten in the last six months. Since this area was declared as rabies-free zone, it is suggested that there were many possible entrances of a dog by trading activities. The objective of this paper was to propose a method to study a dog trade between islands that may contribute to a rabies outbreak. Value chain analysis was proposed to structure the in-depth interview and analyzed the results. The chain governance was defined based on the dog trade activity to explain the transaction among actors. The expected results from the methods were twofold. First, a description of a possible trade of infected dog that enters the rabies-free zone. Thus, it can illustrate an illegal dog trade that adds a more complex situation to control rabies in the islands. Second, the expected results could identify the chain governance and its relation to a strong incentive for a dog trader to sell infected dog for profit. The expected conclusion from the method was the dog trade incentive may cause the rise of an outbreak in the free rabies zone area
