<![CDATA[Regional autonomy as the form of regional financial reform was planned to increase the regional finance, however the contribution of the central government to finance the Regional Revenue and Expenditure Budget through sharing of revenue, General Allocation Fund and Special Allocation Fund is still more dominant than the local own source revenue itself. In fact, the contribution of the local own source revenue to the regional revenue is still relatively low. This reflects that the sources of the local own source revenue are not yet optimally managed, especially from the economic structure change, potential tax and retribution which may affect the low revenue ratio.
