Abstract

Since public sector reform initiatives, public accountability and transparency have advanced democracy and good governance on managing state finances. State financial management mechanism involves regional policies and fiscal decentralization trend in the devolution of responsibility for empowerment from central to local units of governments, but the governance face challenges to effectively manage and control the use of public funds that best meet citizen’s needs. This study determines the effect of public accountability and transparency on the management of state finances in Indonesia, as well as the extent to which public accountability and transparency affect the management of state finances. Based on a descriptive quantitative case-oriented research approach, 60 survey interviews are collected and analyzed with multiple linear regression analysis techniques. This study concludes that Public Accountability partially has a significant effect on the Financial Management Mechanism. On the other hand, partially public transparency has no significant effect on the State Financial Management Mechanism. Cumulatively, some aspects of Public Accountability and Transparency have a significant effect on the State Financial Management Mechanism. If unaccountability in decentralised administrative model prevails, problem of ineffective policy output may persist to impair sustainable finance and public values for good governance in times of covid-19 crisis related society.

Abstract

The Ministry of Social’s Cash Social Assistance Policy is one of the Government’s programs to maintain the purchasing power of people directly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study is to analyze and evaluate the implementation of cash social assistance policies during the COVID-19  pandemic, analyze the factors that hinder the successful implementation of cash social assistance policies during the COVID-19 pandemic, and analyze the factors that support the social assistance policies during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research method used was descriptive qualitative. Informants in this study were bureaucrats, policy implementers, and the community as beneficiaries. This study found non-compliance with policy implementers in the standard and policy targets by deliberately violating them for certain benefits. Factors inhibiting cash assistance policy implementation include ineffective and inefficient policy output to target intended beneficiaries, lack of recipient’s name in the Integrated Social Welfare Data (DTKS), inaccurate redistribution of social assistance benefits, and inappropriate use of social assistance funds to purchase non-basic needs. Supporting factors are strict government supervision and evaluation monitoring on the use of social assistance funds that may reduce cash transfer and impair intended beneficiaries’ access to scarce resources in times of contemporary COVID-19 pandemic crisis-related society.
