AbstractIn the past decade, Public Rental Housing (PRH) has become the program of providing affordable rental housing to low- and middle-income households in China. Even though descriptions of the governance results are numerous, the previous studies are not underpinned by a theoretical foundation from a governance perspective, nor have they empirically examined whether PRH governance works on the ground. This explorative and empirical paper aims to fill this gap of an outcome-oriented evaluation of the impacts of governance as perceived by the final user. Central government formulated the objective for PRH governance as maintaining stability in the society. Whether the tenants perceive the goal of social stability as achieved was measured along three governance outcome dimensions: satisfaction with housing quality, satisfaction with housing quantity, and willingness to communicate with the government about PRH governance. Data were collected from questionnaires to PRH-tenants in Chongqing, the most important pilot city of PRH provision in China. The findings show that the perceived governance outcomes were quite mixed as tenants were moderately satisfied with PRH housing quantity, but less satisfied with housing quality, and thought they could relatively easily communicate with local government. In view of these mixed outcomes, to strengthen the effectiveness of PRH governance in the eyes of the tenants, this study suggests local governments: (1) to rethink and redevelop the performance evaluation; (2) to rethink the relations with non-governmental actors and organise a monitoring system that will assist in optimizing housing quality; and (3) to facilitate tenants’ communication with local government.

Natuna regency is a rich area of natural resource products, but still includes underdeveloped areas in Riau Islands Province. Local governments have to make fundamental changes in building the infrastructure aspects, economic, and human resources to eliminate underdevelopment and reduce dependency on central government. The aims of this research are: (1). to evaluate the effectiveness and stakeholders’ perception of the CD program, in terms of participation and partnership; and (2) to formulate a strategy for synergizing the CD Program of Star Energy with the local government’s development program. The analytical methods that are used in this research are descriptive analysis and SWOT analysis. This research was undertaken in Palmatak Sub District and Siantan Sub District of Natuna District of Kepulauan Riau Province, from June until October, 2008. The results indicated that the government stakeholders perceived that the participation of the CD program’s beneficiaries was adequate, and that the partnership between Star Energy and the local government was inadequate. The result of SWOT analysis suggested that Star Energy needs to focus its CD program on sustainable activities, such as economic development and education programs. The strategy for increasing synergy with the local development programs is to intensify communication between the company and the local government through the formation of community development partnership forum.Keywords: Community Development (CD), Effectiveness, Policy Strategy

The budgeting process is central to every administration be it the central government, local governments and the private sector because financial control is perhaps the most effective coordination tool. The scope and nature of government operations as a whole are determined by the allocations for the various programs. In fact, human nature has never been proven compared to when humans struggle to get a larger than usual share of the funds. This paper examines budgeting at the local government level, its preparation, problems and prospects. The study found that there was a wide gap between the budget plan and its implementation which resulted in the failure to fulfill political promises and the increasingly high expectations of society. The widespread dissatisfaction of the masses with the local government contributed greatly to the slow pace of local community development. This paper makes several recommendations that will reduce the incidence of budget deficits in the Government.

The Impact

It is a difficult time for the world’s economics while the impact of COVID-19 is undergoing. A possible worldwide sovereign debt crisis could emerge, in short term, for supply chains blockage due to its slowing-down in many countries. China, having the second largest economy in the world, is crucial for the stability and sustainability of the economic recovery. China endures a long-term growth since 2000; nevertheless, a large amount of that growth is contributed by the government debt, which was spent on infrastructures. The accumulation of debts is a potential risk to the future growth of China. This research evaluates the central government and local government debts with a series of indicators. The weights of indicators are determined by objective methods of the CRITIC approach. Results confirm that the central government debt of China is on the edge of risk, while the risk of local governments debt is already in a concerning danger. The local government risk is 50% higher than the central government’s risk. Moreover, the K-means clustering algorithm performed on data, collected from various provinces, suggests that the local government debts of China follow a pattern of geographical distribution; that is, the closer to the coast, the lesser the risk, which is in accordance with the pattern of labor flowing. Labors are attracted by job opportunities which lie in the well-developed regions of China. This is confirmed by the crosscheck with the wage growth data. This indicates that the less developed areas of China rely more heavily on debt-investment stimulation that could be of a potential stagnation because the yield of investment follows diminishing marginal returns and the relative lacking labor weakens the potential economic growth.

AbstractThe local government is an extension of the central government to run the government in order to achieve the purpose of the state. In order to realize effective regional governance and harmonious required local regulations in line with the substance of the material, human rights, public interest and does not conflict with other regulations thereon. Until the end of 2016 recorded over 3000 local regulations that was rejected by the Minister of the Interior, where the process of making regulations clearly very nominal spending of state finances. There are forms of relationship communication, consultation, clarification drafts are applied between Government agencies with the authorities in the area for less than effective, in addition to the optimization of the minimal role of the Governor and Members of the Board in developing and overseeing the regional administration is one of the factors that make local regulation do not have a clear substance and in accordance with usefulness. Disharmony between central government and local governments are also an important factor which the step coaching is done by the agency Centre for local government apparatus in the preparation of the Regulation is still said to be not optimal and equitable then not their frame of reference is clear to the area of the administration of the harmonization of the draft law as an instrument important in order to maintain the harmonization of laws with other regulations. Law No.12 of 2011 has had signs which point to the importance of harmonization of rules including local regulations. Article 5 defines a rule that is considered good if it has met the principle of legislation such as clarity of purpose, the fit between the type and material content, usefulness and clarity of the formulation. The draft local regulation harmonization with other rules above areas should be supported by clear and firm rules and to always be integrated as a formal requirement of drafting local regulations as stipulated in Presidential Regulation No. 61 of 2005 which regulates the process of harmonization, rounding, and stabilization of the conception of the regulation draft in Indonesia. Keywords: Consistency Local Regulation, Hierarchy Regulatory and Political of Law. AbstrakPemerintah daerah merupakan perpanjangan tangan dari pemerintah pusat untuk menjalankan roda pemerintahan guna mencapai tujuan bernegara. Dalam mewujudkan pemerintahan daerah yang efektif dan harmonis diperlukan peraturan daerah yang sejalan dengan substansi materi, hak asasi manusia, kepentingan umum dan tidak bertentangan dengan peraturan lain diatasnya. Sampai akhir 2016 terdata lebih dari 3000 Perda yang ditolak oleh Menteri Dalam Negeri dimana proses pembuatan perda jelas sangat menghabiskan nominal keuangan negara. Terdapat bentuk hubungan komunikasi, konsultasi, klarifikasi Raperda yang diterapkan antara instansi Pemerintah dengan aparat di daerah yang selama ini masih kurang efektif, selain itu optimalisasi yang minim dari peran Gubernur dan Anggota Dewan dalam membina dan mengawasi penyelenggaraan pemerintahan kabupatan/kota adalah salah satu faktor yang menjadikan Perda tidak memiliki substansi yang jelas dan sesuai dengan kemanfaatannya. Disharmonisasi antara pemerintah pusat dan pemerintah daerah juga merupakan faktor penting di mana langkah pembinaan yang dilakukan oleh instansi pusat kepada aparatur pemerintah daerah dalam penyusunan Perda masih dikatakan belum optimal dan merata serta tidak adanya kerangka acuan yang jelas bagi daerah mengenai tata laksana harmonisasi Raperda sebagai salah satu instrumen penting dalam rangka menjaga harmonisasi Perda dengan Peraturan lainnya. UU No.12 Tahun 2011 telah memiliki rambu-rambu yang mengarahkan pada pentingnya harmonisasi PUU termasuk Perda. Pasal 5 UU tersebut menentukan PUU dinilai baik apabila telah memenuhi asas peraturan perundang-undangan seperti kejelasan tujuan, kesesuaian antara jenis dan materi muatan, kedayagunaan dan kejelasan rumusan. Harmonisasi Raperda dengan PUU perlu didukung oleh aturan yang jelas dan tegas serta senantiasa dintegrasikan sebagai syarat formal penyusunan Perda sebagaimana tertuang dalam Peraturan Presiden No. 61 Tahun 2005 yang mengatur proses mengenai pengharmonisasian, pembulatan, dan pemantapan konsepsi pada draft rancangan undang-undang di Indonesia. Kata kunci: Konsistensi Peraturan Daerah, Hierarkhi Perundang-undangan, dan Politik Hukum

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the merits of accrual-based accounting for the public in an Indonesian local government. It gives insights into the connection between the new practices and responses from government apparatus. Design/methodology/approach The paper applies genetic structuralism from Pierre Bourdieu to study the interrelation of habitus, field and capital in the accrual accounting implementation. Findings The result indicates a symbolic dominance of central government in the implementation of accrual-based accounting in the local government. Accrual accounting is considered to be a technique of government accountability which is independent from political and social situation. Practical implications The accrual accounting implementation preoccupies the government officials in their study of the preparation of financial statements while its utilization to increase the public welfare is still ignored. Social implications The government still prioritizes accountability and transparency for managerial and political purposes. Hence, the public interest is less superior compared with the formalities established between governments – the central government and local governments – and the regional legislator. Originality/value This paper contributes to the evaluation of the alignment of government policy with the public interest.
