The population of this research is officials of the Indonesian: Regional Working Unit in the province of East Java, Indonesia. The sampling technique used is proportional sampling, the research respondents were 84 people. The results show that budget participation, information asymmetry, and job insecurity have a positive effect on budgetary slack.

Subject The draft 2019 budget. Significance The government budget for 2019, announced by President Sebastian Pinera on September 29, is the most austere in almost a decade. It aims to restore Chile’s long-standing reputation for exemplary fiscal conduct, which in recent years has been undermined by increases in government spending that outstrip GDP growth, and the resulting increase in borrowing. Impacts Credit rating agencies have indicated that the draft budget is in line with their concerns about Chile’s rising borrowing requirement. The ongoing decline in fiscal revenues from copper underlines Chile’s need to diversify its economy. The government will be hard-pressed to meet its fiscal goals if, as current forecasts suggest, GDP growth weakens through to 2020.

According to Minister of Home Affairs  Regulation No. 56 of 2015 concerning Code and Data of Administrative Area, it is mentioned that Papua is one of 34 provinces in Indonesia with the highest number of villages by 5,419 villages, 110 urban villages, and 558 sub-districts scattered in 28 regencies and 1 city. The high number of villages in a regency/city area has an effect on the amount of village funds allocated by the Central or Provincial Governments for each district/city, thus affecting the amount of regency/city APBD. Village Fund Allocation is a manifestation of the fulfillment of the right for the village to implement the principle of autonomy for the village to grow and develop following the growth of the village itself, based on diversity, participation, original autonomy, democratization, and community empowerment. However, the increasing number of village formation burdened the government budget to finance the formation of new villages, so that the village formation had a significant and positive effect on the amount of regional finance, especially regency/city and provincial APBD. For example, in the 2016 fiscal year, Tolikara Regency had a total of 541 villages spreading across 46 districts and received the largest village fund allocation of Rp320.04 billion. Thus, Tolikara Regency ranked 1st with the most villages and the largest village fund in the Papua Province. In contrast, Jayapura City with a total of 13 villages was the regency/city with the least number of villages and the least amount of village fund of Rp. 12.51 billion.

Sebagai negara kepulauan yang tempat tinggal penduduknya tersebar di banyak pulau, keberadaan TIK untuk pendidikan mutlak diperlukan. Untuk kepentingan tersebut Pusat Teknologi Informasi dan Komunikasi (Pustekkom) diberi amanah untuk mengelola dan mengkoordinasikan pemanfaatan TIK untuk pendidikan. Sejak tahun 2008 Pustekkom telah memberikan fasilitas TIK untuk pembelajaran yang berupa bandwidth gratis melalui Jejaring Pendidikan Nasional (jardiknas) kepada lebih dari 16.000 sekolah SD, SMP, SMA dan SMK di Indonesia, dan secara bertahap memberikan pelatihan bagi para guru di sekolah tersebut dalam memanfaatkan TIK untuk pembelajaran. Masalahnya “apakah fasilitas TIK dan pelatihan guru tersebut memberikan kontribusi terhadap peningkatan nilai UN SMP dan SMA khususnya di Propinsi Maluku. Untuk menjawab pertanyaan ini, dilakukan penelitian dengan cara membandingkan nilai UN pada pereode sebelum diberikan fasilitas TIK yaitu tahun 2005-2007 dengan pereode setelah diberikan fasilitas TIK, yakni tahun 2008-2011. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan menggunakan teknik proportional stratified random sampling. Perbedaan rerata dari hasil UN antara sebelum dengan sesudah diberikan fasilitas TIK diuji melalui Uji-t dengan menggunakan taraf signifikansi 0,05. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat peningkatan nilai UN yang signifikan untuk seluruh mata pelajaran yang di UN-kan. Peningkatan nilai UN diduga karena pengaruh TIK dan pelatihan guru dalam pemanfaatan TIK untuk pembelajaran. Dari hasil penelitian ini disarankan agar pemerintah secara terus menerus meningkatkan pemberian layanan TIK ke sekolah-sekolah lainnya di Indonesia, sekaligus memberikan pelatihan pemanfaatan TIK untuk pembelajaran kepada guru-gurunya. As an archipelagic country, where people live in many islands, the presence of ICT for education is absolutely necessary.

Participation in the budgetary process does not only comes with a positive effect(s) but could also lead to negative behavior(s) of employees, one of which is the creation of budgetary slack. Previous studies said that information asymmetry is rated as one of the causes of the creation of budgetary slack. The purposes of this 3x2 factorial experimental study and between subject designs are to see the effect of information asymmetry on the budgetary slack and see whether information asymmetry and self-efficacy leads to the creation of budgetary slack. This study involved 65 undergraduate and postgraduate students from the accounting department of Economics and Business Faculty in Universitas Airlangga Sura­baya as participants. One way ANOVA and two- way ANOVA is used to test and analyze the proposed hypothesis. Results show that information asymmetry influences the creation of budgetary slack. However, production managers with high or low self-efficacy are still taking advantage of asymmetric information that happened to do budgetary slack.
