Abstract

The Multi-Party Presidential Government in Indonesia has reached a critical point. The 2.5 percent parliamentary threshold rule in the 2009 Election was incapable to address the issue. The parliamentary threshold was raised to 3.5 percent in 2014, in the hope to reduce the number of party joining the election, but it failed to do so. There were 9 national parties participating in the 2009 election, and it will be increased to 16 in the 2019 election. Theoretically, the combination of multi-party parliament in a Presidential Government is rather strange. It is not surprising that the "conflict" between the president and parliament often occurs. There suppose to be a coalition supporting the government in parliament, but the coalition is not a firm one. The coalition did not have a significant influence in strengthening the presidential government. Therefore, this study intends to provide a complete picture of multi-party system practices while trying to provide solutions for strengthening the presidential government in Indonesia. To achieve this goal, this study uses the literature study method in collecting relevant information, using a qualitative approach. This approach is considered appropriate because multi-party phenomena and presidential systems are multidimensional. In contrast to previous research which was limited to the description and problems of multiparty systems, this research besides describing the system of government also provided moderate solutions that were considered to be in accordance with the Indonesian context. This study assumes that strengthening presidential systems can be done if the political parties are more modest. In addition, parliamentary support for the president must be optimized. The results of the study concluded that the strengthening of presidential systems must be carried out through the purification of the government system contained in the constitution, forming and strengthening the ranks of government coalitions in parliament, and carrying out a number of institutional engineering through various forms. These three things must be wrapped in a constitutional frame (amendments to the 1945 Constitution) and regulations (revisions to laws and government regulations). The amendments and revisions can be done through three corridors, namely the intra-parliamentary movement, the extra-parliamentary movement, and the referendum.

Abstract

Based on data from 2016 Indonesia’s Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), Regional Government Owned Enterprises (BUMD) failed to perform optimally. The condition of BUMDs varies greatly across Indonesia, but most of them lack of clear direction or guidance from a supervising institution. This paper seesk to highlight the urgency of establishing supervisory institution to guide BUMD in Banten Province by examining efforts on behalf of Province Government of Banten in institutionalizing BUMD supervision in three capacities the supervision of BUMD as limited liability companies, regulatory efforts for BUMD supervision, and the establishment of a supervising institution to guide the BUMD. The study employs a descriptive analysis and utilizes a qualitative approch. Data was retrieved through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions. The study found that regulative efforts by Province Government of Banten for the supervision of its BUMD were still at minimum in terms of quantity, and the issued regulations have only concerned on financial performance aspect. The Mid-term Development Plan (Rencana Pembangunan Jangka Menengah Daerah, RPJMD) of Banten province has not included BUMD as one of the determinants of its success. The study has further revealed budget constraints for BUMD supervision, legal ambiguities in the supervision of a Limited Liability Company (PT) BUMD, limited human resources, and a complex legal construction in need of adjustment. Establishing clear and focused institution for the supervision of BUMD is an urgent matter for Banten Province. With one in place, the Province could clearly supervise its BUMDs and government guidance thereof would be more comprehensive, not limited to financial performance control.

Abstract

This study examines power relations in the context of literacy improvement in East Java Province. In addition to the persistent stagnation in TGM and IPLM scores, the Library and Archive Office (Dispusip) of East Java Province also faces unequal access to and varying quality of library services, which are crucial in improving literacy levels in East Java. These challenges are deeply intertwined with power relations, where leaders wield dominant influence over decision-making processes and policy implementation. This study employed a combination of descriptive and literature review methods, with data analysis conducted through a qualitative approach. It uncovered various factors and implications related to power relations within the Library and Archive Office (Dispusip) of East Java, particularly the hierarchical power structures and centralization. In this context, the Secretary of the Library Office (Sekdis) played a dominant role in shaping decision-making processes. The outcomes of centralized power encompassed power imbalances and internal conflicts within the Dispusip, including a noteworthy observation that numerous librarians launched programs without seeking approval from their leaders. Furthermore, the study highlights the librarians’ challenges in adapting to evolving demands, primarily stemming from limited human resource capabilities, which consequently lead to a decline in their performance. In response to these intricate challenges, this study underscores the importance of promoting open dialogues through participatory forums, implementing the principles of good governance, and empowering individuals by enhancing their skills and knowledge base.
