State government is the basis of indigenous peoples and has clear land and sea territorial boundaries called petuanan country, and a government system that is genealogical or based on lineage. The term Negeri does not come from the native language of this area or "the language of the land". A country is a territorial alliance consisting of several sub-districts, which are generally at least three. Currently, the composition of the government of the territory of the country is the territory that forms the country. Underneath there are soa areas which are formed from several old houses as genealogical alliances.This research method is descriptive, namely to describe, find legal facts as a whole and examine systematically related to the arrangement for the appointment of the head of government of the State of East Lisabata and examine whether the appointment process is in accordance with applicable regulations.
