This research is aim to explain how local wisdom could play an important role in shaping and forming a new autonomous region (DOB). It is shown that local wisdom in Apau Kayan is very influential in social, economic and cultural life of the people. Apart from that, this can be viewed as the implementation of assymetric decentralization where local government is given a broader authority by Central Government to regulate their own region according to existing local wisdom. In this sense, it is perceived as an effective way of incorporating local wisdom as an integral part of local development.

Developmental Role

Local development, whether construed broadly as community development or more narrowly as local as economic development (LED) is not always associated with local government but rather is the purview of a central government department or agency in Anglophone Caribbean policy systems. However with the emergence of ‘local place - and people-oriented approaches’ to development that offer new propositions about how to respond to risks and opportunities brought by globalization, local government is seen increasingly as an appropriate institutional context in which to pursue short-range objectives, such as creation of market opportunities and redressing the disparities within national economies; as well as the long-range goal of social transformation. A developmental role for local government raises two questions that form the central concerns of this paper: What are the institutional and organisational imperatives of a developmental role for local government? To what extent have these imperatives been addressed in reform? A critical analysis of local government reform policies in Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica revealed substantive convergence around local development as an outcome of reform but also important divergence in the approach to achieving this goal which suggests the absence of a cohesive model. The paper argues for a new agenda in reform that links local government more consistently with a local development strategy. It asserts that such a strategy must incorporate gender equality, the informal economy and institutional organisational capacity in the process of transformation and as a basis for creating a local context in which all types of resources can be maximized in the process of wealth creation in a locality.

Abstract: Aside from being located as an autonomous region, it is also located as an administrative area; therefore, in addition to regulating the autonomous region, the Governor as the regional head also acts as the central representative in the regions. However, as the head of the region, the Governor is also responsible for regulating his autonomous region and also responsible to the people who elect him. The research objective is to discuss the constitutionality of the Governor's position as the representative of the central government in the region based on the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The type of research used in this Studi is normative. The results showed that the Governor in carrying out his government in accordance with the mandate of the constitution performed its duties as regional head based on autonomy and assistance tasks. Based on the conclusions that can be drawn about whether the task is interpreted and the authority of the Governor is based on the principle of Deconcentration, the Position of the Governor is the Central Representative in the region and is an expansion of government in the administration of government.Keywords : Governor; Autonomy; Government

And Control

Control of local governments in countries around the world is very diverse,but mainly divided into two categories: 1) control of state agencies (central government control, court control, control of local power representations); 2) control of social institutions including political party control over local government, control of organizations and public associations, control of the media, and control of the people. The paper focuses on analysing the controlling local governments in some countries, thereby giving reference values for Vietnam.

The Relationship

Since 2000 intergovernmental relations in New Zealand have been evolving rapidly as a result of a significant shift in government policy discourse towards a strong central-local government partnership. New statutory provisions empowering local government to promote social, economic, environmental and cultural wellbeing have significant implications for the range of activities in which local authorities are engaged. In turn, this has consequences for the relationship between local government and central government. The effectiveness of the new empowerment and the prospects for further strengthening of the role of local government are critically examined. Despite some on-going tensions, and an inevitable mismatch in the balance of power between central and local government, it is argued that there is a discernible rebalancing of intergovernmental relations as a result of new legislation and central government policy settings which reflect a ‘localist turn’. On the basis of developments since 2000 it may be argued that the New Zealand system of local government is evolving away from the recognised ‘Anglo’ model. However, further consolidation is needed in the transformation of intergovernmental relations and mechanisms that will cement a more genuine central-local government partnership.

The Impact

Results of the comparative study presented in this paper suggests that local government organization influences land-use planning, and local development strategies and disparities. Local government reforms can, therefore, serve to modify spatial patterns of development and disparities. Based on a review of studies made in the developed and the developing world, the author provides a comparative perspective on these influences. Five major dimensions of local government organization—territorial, functional, political autonomy, fiscal, and electoral—are used to define four extreme models of local government. The American self-government model leads to substantial inequalities and to considerable sprawl. The Western welfare-state model alleviates these problems somewhat, but at a cost to central government. Its positive impact is also dependent on norms of administration at the central level, whereas reduced competition over economic development has its negative sides. Developing-world-type centralism has no real advantages in terms of development or disparities. The developing-world decentralized model can be regarded as a transitional phase towards either the self-government or the welfare-state models. Its implementation has been partial; hence its impact has, so far, been rather small.

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

ABSTRACTRegional autonomy as the right and authority and obligation of an autonomous region to regulate and manage a certain region or region which otonami this area is done to advance the welfare of the local community with the base on the legislation of Law no. 23 of 2014 on local government (Revision of Law No.32 of 2004) Implementation of regional autonomy that should be very helpful in the welfare of the people but is now still inversely proportional to the construction of flat-clad apartment standing on Jalan Yos Sudarso, Rumbai District, Pekanbaru, Monday (16 / 11/2015). Rusunawa built by the Ministry of Public Works (PU) is still not fully functioned because it is still waiting for the inauguration of the provincial government development that has not been oriented to the interests of the community and the potential that still looks minimal in the knowledge of the apparatus in managing the existing resources that make terkendalanya in the management of the rusunawaAbstrakOtonomi daerah sebagai hak dan wewenang serta kewajiban suatu daerah otonom untuk mengatur dan mengurus suatu wilayah atau daerah tertentu yang mana otonami daerah ini di lakukan untuk memajukan kesejahteraan masyarakat setempat dengan di landaskan pada peraturan perundang-undangan UU No. 23 Tahun 2014 tentang pemerintah daerah (Revisi UU No.32 Tahun 2004) pemerintah daerah menyelenggarakan urusan pemerintah menjadi kewengan daerah..

Financing And Investment

In this article, we develop a new conceptual model for estimating local government borrowing capacity that combines a legislative and market approach. The model has wider applicability and is relevant for several stakeholders: for the local governments to determine their development financing potential, for the central government to balance local development needs with macroeconomic stability objectives, and for financial institutions and project, developers to tailor their products to the local financing and investment opportunities. We apply the model on selected local government units in Slovenia, Croatia and Serbia and test the hypothesis that their relative (per capita) borrowing capacities differ. We find that the legislative borrowing capacity is more restrictive in Slovenia, while market limitations cap the borrowing capacity in Croatia and Serbia. Overall, Slovenian local government units have the highest relative (per capita) market borrowing capacity, followed by local government units in Croatia and Serbia. We also find evidence that market sentiment may be prohibitive for the borrowing of some units. Our results additionally indicate substantial unused local borrowing capacities in the analysed local government units.

This chapter examines the structure and role of central government, with the latter part focusing on the key constitutional requirement that the government is accountable to the people through Parliament, reflecting the democratic nature of the constitution. The phrase ‘central government’ refers to the Prime Minister, Cabinet, ministers, government departments, and civil servants. Informally, these parts of central government are often referred to as ‘Whitehall’, reflecting how most government departments and the Prime Minister are based around that area of central London close to Westminster. A more constitutionally appropriate phrase is the ‘executive’. However, this term can also be taken to mean other elements which include the governments of Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales, as well as local government and organisations such as the police.
