The central government authorizes local governments to manage local finances to deal with covid-19 in their respective regions. This is because the local government better understands the needs of the region. The issue raised first, how is the relationship between the Central Government and Local Government in financial management for the handling of the Covid-19 pandemic? Second, What is the role of local governments in regional financial management for the handling of the Covid-19 pandemic? Using normative juridical research methods with statutory approaches and concept approaches. The relationship between the Central Government and Local Government in Financial Management for the Handling of the Covid-19 Pandemic is fiscal decentralization. The role of local governments in regional financial management for the handling of the Covid-19 pandemic is by refocusing activities, reallocating budgets, and using regional budgets.Keywords: Local Government, Regional Financial Management, Covid-19 Pandemic

The Relationship

Rents from natural resources can alter the relationship between central and local governments by providing a new source of government financing. We develop a model to explore the relationship between fiscal decentralization and resource abundance. Our model indicates that natural resource rents can detach central government expenditures from the tax base so that the central government can spend more to persuade a fractious periphery to remain under central government control. Thus, other things being equal, higher natural resource rents can result in less decentralized government expenditures. We empirically explore the relationship between fiscal decentralization and natural resource rents using a panel of 60 countries over the past 40 years. Empirical results support our economic model: A 1% increase in natural resource rents as a fraction of gross domestic product results in government expenditures that are 0.53% less decentralized.

The Relationship

The relationship between the Central and local governments during an emergency has been primarily discussed at the Diet, in connection with the Constitution’s amendment, including the emergency provisions. However, opinions from the various fields are divided and discussions are typically based on whether an emergency state should be tackled principally by the Central Government or municipalities. The increasing risk of a super wide-area disaster (huge disaster) that can be expressed as national emergency state, such as the Great Nankai Trough Earthquake and large-scale flood, makes it imperative for advancing the previously mentioned discussions. It should be examined whether a state of emergency state could be managed appropriately within the administrative framework of the municipalities based on the Disaster Countermeasures Basic Act. In addition, necessary measures should be adopted within the purview of the existing laws apart from the discussions on the amendment of the Constitution. In this case, detailed discussions are needed on, for example, what kind of special rules should be established regarding the relationship between the Central and local governments. In this paper, the Great Nankai Trough Earthquake, large-scale flood in metropolitan areas, nuclear disaster, and complex disaster along with natural disaster are considered; the plans created by the Central Government in terms of the disaster prevention measures for such disasters are examined; and the items requiring special rules on the relationship between the Central and local governments are extracted from the disaster emergency measures. Furthermore, the per item application procedure of these special rules is also determined.

Further Development

Indonesia in the aftermath of Reformation, the relationship between powers of central and local governments has shifted the paradigm in which the power of central government has been transferred from centralized-authoritarian to decentralized-autonomy. One of decentralized powers of local government is by providing the power to self-regulate without certain interventions from central government, including the initiative to establish bylaws (Peraturan Daerah) as the results of local autonomy.  In further development of autonomy, however, the wider decentralization and autonomy attached to local governments has been responded differently. One of such responses is the establishment of sharia bylaws in which they result in problems in the Indonesian constitutional law system. From constitutional views, bylaws in local governments other than Aceh province violate citizen’s constitutional rights by which those are not accomodated in the hierarcy of national regulations. On the other hand, however, the establishment of sharia bylaw is important as an attempt to nurture social morality. Accordingly, there should not be abandonment regarding the establishment of sharia bylaws in several local governments other than Aceh province. But, the reaffirmation is needed relating to the position of sharia bylaws in the constitutional perspective which is not only seen formally, but also materially.

Adanya desentralisasi fiskal diharapkan dapat menciptakan kemandirian daerah dan dapat mengurangi ketergantungan pemerintah daerah terhadap pemerintah pusat. Kemandirian keuangan daerah dicerminkan dengan perbandingan besarnya PAD terhadap total pendapatan daerah. Sejak 10 tahun dilaksanakannya otonomi daerah sesuai UU No 32 Tahun 2004, kemandirian keuangan daerah di Provinsi Jawa Tengah masih berada di level yang kurang baik dibandingkan dengan provinsi lainnya di Pulau Jawa. Jumlah pengangguran dan jumlah penduduk miskin di Provinsi Jawa Tengah juga masih terhitung tinggi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan dari tingkat kemandirian keuangan daerah dan tingkat ketergantungan daerah terhadap tingkat pengangguran dan tingkat kemiskinan di kabupaten/kota Provinsi Jawa Tengah Tahun 2013. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah data sekunder. Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah Analisis Korelasi Kanonikal menggunakan bantuan program SPSS. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kemandirian keuangan daerah mempunyi hubungan yang signifikan, kuat, dan tidak searah dengan pengangguran dan kemiskinan. Sedangkan hubungan antara ketergantungan daerah terhadap kemiskinan dan pengangguran mempunyai hubungan yang signifikan, tidak kuat, dan tidak searah. Peningkatan kemandirian keuangan daerah guna mengurangi tingkat ketergantungan terhadap pemerintah pusat dapat dilakukan dengan cara menggali dan mengelola sumber daya atau potensi daerah yang dimilikinya secara efektif dan efisien sebagai sumber utama pendapatan keuangan daerahnya. Fiscal decentralization is expected to create  independency regional financial  and to reduce the dependence of local governments to the central government. Independency regional financial can be result by the ratio of PAD to total local revenue. Since 10 years the implementation of regional autonomy based on UU No. 32 of 2004, independency regional financial in Central Java  is still unwell compared to the other provinces in Java. As well as unemployed, and the poverty in Central Java is still high. The purpose of this research is to determine the relationship of  independency regional financial and the dependency regional to unemployment and poverty in Central Java period 2013. The data used in this research is secondary data. The method of analysis used is the Canonical Correlation Analysis using SPSS application. The results of research showed that the relationship of independency regional financial are significant, strong, and no direct relation with unemployment and poverty The relationship between dependency regional with unemployment and poverty are significant, no strong, and no direct relation. Increased the independency local financial to reduce the dependence on the central government can be done by managing the resources or the potential of region effectively and efficiently as the source from their financial local revenue

The Relationship

The relationship between the local government and the central government in handling COVID 19 in Indonesia is considered very bad because the existing disaster management is considered slow in breaking the chain of the spread of COVID 19. This study focuses on coordination between the central government and local governments where there are many mismatched statements in determining policies in handling COVID 19 which is confusing in the application of handling this COVID 19 disaster. The research method using a systematic literature review is one approach to the literature review method by describing the procedure for selecting publication criteria and/or literature that is reviewed with the aim of getting a broad picture related to a particular topic or issue. The results of the study indicate the need for principles of interaction between local and central government authorities in the task of handling the COVID-19 disaster that has not used a good disaster management strategy, this is because it does not implement the relationship responsibility principles of central-local government interaction so it is necessary to strengthen communication. In addition, during the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a complicated bureaucratic system in central-local government interactions

The Relationship

The purpose of this study is to analyze whether there is relationship between level of local government internal auditor (LGIA) capability and local government financial management (LGFM) quality. Furthermore, this study also identifies factors affecting the presence or the absence of a significant relationship between LGIA capability and LGFM quality. This research uses in-depth interviews and focus group discussion to identify factors affecting the presence or the absence of relationship between LGIA capability and LGFM quality. The results show that there is no relationship between LGIA capability and LGFM quality. The absence of the relationship is caused by dominant role of Local Government Working Units (LGWU) in the process of financial management; improvement of LGIA capability is not followed by improvement on the roles and services provided by LGIA; and potential weakness in assessment process of LGIA capability by The Finance and Development Supervisory Agency. Findings of this study will assist both central and local governments to evaluate “what went wrong” with their Improvement of LGIA Capability Programs and assist central government to formulate a better policy on relationship and coordination among head of local government, LGWU, and LGIA.This research develops a new method to measure LGFM quality comprehensively. This study also fills gap in the literature exploring the relationship between LGIA capability and LGFM quality, which is still rare at present.

The Relationship

The concept of the relationship of authority between central and local governments within the unitary state of Indonesia in the context of the widest possible autonomy based on the Constitution of 1945. Whereas, the Republic of Indonesia as a state of law is based on constitutional system so that in every action of law concerning the concept of the relationship between central and local authorities should be established through legislation, whereas in juridical manner of authority is a right and legal authority of government. So, in the concept of the legal state (rechtstaat) all of government action that came from their authority should be based on legality principle. Therefore, the authority which is one form of power has legitimacy (validity), which will be the relationship that authority has a legitimate power. In the legislation related of the division of authority between central government and local government that regulated in Law Number 23 of 2014 on local government is clearly not reflect autonomy broad. Keywords:Authority, Local Government, Autonomy

The Relationship

The issue of decentralization has become significant in the handling of COVID-19, especially for countries with large island territories and heterogeneous communities such as Indonesia. This paper presents an analysis of the relationship between the center and the local in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia by conducting literature studies through books, journals, mass media articles, and sources from the internet. Initially, relations between the center and the regions in tackling COVID-19 showed a strong centralization of authority by the central government. In the end, local governments get a proportional role but still make the government conductor in policy orchestration. Synergies between the central and local governments will be the key to success in dealing with COVID-19 in Indonesia. However, cooperation must build within the framework of the unitary state of the Republic of Indonesia.
