Land acquisition for public purposes, including for the construction of railroad infrastructure, is a matter that is proposed by all countries in the world. The Indonesian government or the Malaysian royal government needs land for railroad infrastructure development. To realize this, a regulation was made that became the legal umbrella for the government or royal government. The people must agree to regulations that require it. Land acquisition for public use in Malaysia can be completed quickly in Indonesia. The influencing factor is the different perceptions of the understanding of what are in the public interest, history and legal systems of the two countries as well as the people's reaction from the two countries

Firstly, a comprehensive literature review is conducted, that, an EFQM Model is introduced and its advantages for PPP projects are analyzed. Then, the performance evaluation criteria are established and the performance indicators are identified for PPP projects based on literature review. Finally, a performance evaluation model for PPP projects in general is formulated based on the EFQM model.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan perilaku gotong-royong sebagai katarsis jati diri bangsa yang tengah banyak ditinggalkan. Metode penelitian yang dipakai adalah kualitatif deskriptif dengan kajian pustaka sebagai tulang punggung utama pengumpulan data. Saat ini identitas Budaya Kolektif dari bangsa Indonesia mulai luntur. Tren meninggalkan budaya kolektif juga semakin kuat jika melihat tren masyarakat yang mulai abai dengan kepentingan Umum dan lebih mementingkan kepentingan pribadi. Oleh karena itu mengembalikan masyarakat pada Jati Diri dan nilai bangsanya menjadi sangat krusial. Perilaku gotong – royong yang pada jaman dahulu menjadi roh budaya kolektif agaknya dapat ditegakkan lagi. Perilaku gotong – royong merupakan perilaku saling membantu, bentuk solidaritas dan sinergi antar masyarakat. Perilaku ini dapat menjadi strategi meningkatkan kembali nilai – nilai. Kolektivitas yang mulai luntur. Menegakkan kembali perilaku gotong – royong yang pernah menjadi ruh pemersatu bangsa yang dulu pernah ada, akan dapat menjadi katarsis untuk mengembalikan budaya bangsa. Oleh karena itu nilai – nilai dan perilaku gotong royong harus ditegakkan kembali guna mengembalikan Jati Diri Bangsa Indonesia ke arah yang seharusnya. This study aims to describe the behaviour of cooperation as a catharsis of national identity that is being largely abandoned. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with literature review as the main backbone of data collection. Currently, the collective cultural identity of the Indonesian nation is starting to fade. The trend of leaving a collaborative culture is also getting more assertive if you look at the trend in society that is beginning to ignore the public interest and prioritize personal interests. Therefore, returning society to the identity of its nation and the value of its people is very crucial. It seems that the cooperation behaviour, which in ancient times became the spirit of a collective culture, can be reinforced. Cooperation behaviour is the behaviour of mutual help, a form of solidarity and synergy between communities. This behaviour can be a strategy to increase the collectivity values that are starting to wear off. Re-enforcing the cooperation behaviour that was once the unifying spirit of the nation that once existed, will be a catharsis to restore the nation's culture. Therefore, the values and behaviour of cooperation must be re-enforced to return the Indonesian National Identity to the direction it should be.

Abstract. The article examines the mechanisms of process financing informatization of administrative services. The purpose of the article is to determine the sources of funding and prospects for the provision of administrative services in terms of informatization of the public sector of Ukraine. Research methods are comparative analysis of analytical and official statistical data of Ukraine, institutes of international support on the basis of group classification of instruments of financing of Administrative Servics Center (ASC). It is proved that decentralization, development and improvement of the quality of administrative services determine the ASC as a priority area of reforming the system of administrative services in Ukraine. The legal bases of creation and maintenance of functioning of ASC, legal statuses of establishment, principles of process of rendering of administrative services in ASC are defined. The dynamics of the number of administrative service centers and regional features of functioning are analyzed. Sources of financing of ASC (the state budget, regional and city budgets, means of the State fund of regional development, the international projects of technical assistance) are allocated. It is proved that the most common and largest source of funding for informatization processes in the ASC is the state budget (subvention for infrastructure development). The authors propose a forecast model for the creation and development of administrative service centers in Ukraine under conditions of further state funding in appropriate volumes. The necessity of attracting external sources of financing (funds of international technical assistance projects, initiatives of international donors) in the conditions of limited and deficit of the state budget of Ukraine is substantiated. The necessity of modernization of ASC from the point of view of use of IT-technologies is substantiated. Priority areas for comprehensive reform of improving the quality of administrative services are identified: decentralization, simplification, deregulation, institutional capacity development and communication support. Keywords: financing, administrative services, informatization, public sector. JEL Classification D92 Formulas: 0; fig.: 4; tabl.: 1; bibl.: 13.

Eighty percent of Americans believe that government is run for “a few big interests” rather than the public interest. Rooted in notions of social welfare, cost-benefit analysis might be seen as an analytical procedure to flush out and discourage at least the most egregious abuses in lawmaking authority, thereby encouraging citizens to view their government as essentially pursuing some plausible notion of the public interest. Yet the extent to which cost-benefit analysis might fill this trust-building role is an unaddressed issue. Here, I conduct an experiment based on a (de)regulatory action in the environmental context to examine whether cost-benefit analysis might yield trust dividends. I find that cost-benefit analysis produces large increases in public sector trust, but only when paired with reasonableness review, and only among “elites.” This pattern of findings suggests that, without more, an agency declaration of cost justification is not credible, but that it may be made so through a form of reasonableness review. I discuss the contours of such review, and highlight perils if review is overly aggressive.
