The Complexities of Regional Development Planning Reform: The Indonesian Case

Development planning reform retains a significantly prominent position as it determines the success of development particularly in developing countries. However, implementing development planning reform is no easy feat as various obstacles ensue. This study was conducted in the Yogyakarta Province, Indonesia to identify these specific obstacles through a content analysis of regional development planning documents, provided along with the support of relevant literature study. The results of the study show that the obstacles encountered were quite complex, namely the low capacity of regional government, failure in implementing principles of good governance and bureaucratic reform, and the intensity of political elites’ dominance in the region who utilize development planning as a means of achieving their interests. Affirmative policies to enhance regional capacity, to rearrange regulations and limit political party dominance, and to reconfigure the regional head’s position as a political functionary and personnel administrator are thus recommended to address these issues

Capacity building sebagai prakondisi dan lanhkah strategis bagi perwujudan otonomi daerah di Indonesia

Local government autonomy in development has not been successfully materialized in Indonesia although there has been a policy breakthrough with the stipulation of new acts on decentralisation or local government. It is explained that the new acts implementation is still constrained by: 1) strategic failure in implementing local autonomy, 2) misconception about decentralisation and governance autonomy, 3) different perspectives among the political elites, 4) strong grip of centralised bureaucracy, and 5) the loose control from the legislatives and the public at large. It is also argued that local government have to deal with such constraints because the lack of capability to administer development in a decentralised context which implies that capacity building is extremely urgent for the local autonomy. Furthermore, capacity building for the local government officials can only be accomplished if there is an appropriate approach and strategy. This article recommends some practical guidance for the capacity building programmes to meet the requirement, namely: 1) strategic intervention, 2) institutional building, 3) action programme, and 4) continual improvement. At the bottom line, all the capacity building programmes should be able to convince the local government officials about the importance of local government vision for development, human resources improvement, local institutions\u27 revitalisation, organisational networking, and understanding the context of local development.

Urbanization and Regional Imbalances in Indonesia

The level of urbanization that occurred in Indonesia at this time is remarkable that causes the growth of cities very rapidly. The growth of cities is mainly due to various reasons such as the capitalization process, regional enlargement/reclassification, as well as migration from rural to urban. The growth of cities leads a lot of problems like environmental degradation, traffic congestion, poverty, crime and other social conflicts. Such a rapid rate of urbanization is a reflection of the inequity between rural and urban development. Lack of employment opportunities in the village causes the population to go into town to find work. The imbalance of development that occurs is a result of implementing a liberal economic system that only emphasizes growth, while on the other side of the agricultural sector is not paid any appropriate attention. The farmers are at a very weak and do not have a good bargaining position, with the exchange rate is very lame. Even regarding with the foodstuffs such as rice, wheat, sugar, salt, etc., Indonesia has to import from abroad. The imbalances of development do not only occur between rural and urban, but also between Java and the outside of Java, and between western and eastern Indonesia regions. This imbalance should be found a solution, with good management and equitable development, including the political will to reform the economic system in favor of the Indonesian people
