This study aims at examining the role of coalition parties on local government expenditure. The coalition parties are comprised of several parties that support the regional head in the local government. Specifically, this study focuses on two important aspects of local government expenditure: education and health expenditure. The research question of the study is “Does the coalition parties have a significant effect on the local government expenditure?”. The independent variable of the study is coalition parties that support elected regional heads. The dependent variable is local government expenditure, which consists of education and health expenditures. The sample of the study was the local government in the Republic of Indonesia from the 2016–2018 period. There are 632 observations as the sample of the study. The results revealed that coalition parties have a negative effect on education and health expenditure. The higher percentage of coalition parties has decreased the local government expenditure on both education and health expenditures. The result of the study shows that coalition parties have a significant effect on the local government expenditure. This study confirms Lewis and Hendrawan’s (2019) argument that coalition parties have used their discretion to influence the regional heads’ decisions on the local government expenditure

The purpose of this study is to investigate and analyze the efficiency and effectiveness of local government expenditure on education sector in districts and cities level of East Java, during the periods 2007-2014. Furthermore, this study will evaluate the impacts of local government expenditure, household expenditure for education, and regional product domestic bruto or (PDRB) on the educational outcomes, namely education index.Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is selected as the methodology for analyzing the efficiency of local government expenditure on educational outcome. The model assumes constant return to scale (CRS) and variable return to scale (VRS). Measurement of the effectiveness of government spending is done by using panel data regression. Data for supporting the analyses is panel data from 38 districts and cities in East Java for the periods of 2007 – 2014. The results show that government expenditure in educational sector is relatively inefficient. Government Expenditure for Education (PPP) has no significant impact on educational index, while Household expenditure for education (PPRT) and GRDP per Capita positive has significant impact on the Education Index (IP). This imply that government expenditure for educational sector is not effective improving educational index.
