Furthermore, a significant 2-tailed explanation shows that there is a stronger relationship between the DAU and the horizontal gap compared to the relationship between the DAK and the horizontal gap.</em></p><em>The researcher recommends that the portion of the DAU allocation intended for people's welfare should be further improved and there is a need for further evaluation and supervision of the absorption of DAK by the Regional Government so that the implementation of the use of these funds is targeted and more accountable.</em>
