Environmental issues are externalities of economicdevelopment requires the handling of various instrumentsin order to be in harmony with the eco-nomicdevelopment environment. Payment for Envi-ronmentalServices (PES) is now being developed globally as amarket-based instrument that is prom-ising to addressthe issue of degradation of natural resources and theenvironment. PES mechanism has to be said that theconcept is simple and flexible in a variety of conditions,so that the application was highly variable throughoutthe world. The main prob-lem lies in whether thePayment for Environmental Services (PES) that is nowbeing developed globally as a market-based instrumentsare quite capable of dealing with poverty anddegradation of natural re-sources and the environment.Refer to research find-ing shows that Tawang Polderhas significant direct and indirect value for society.About 50% house-hold stated that they accept PES and20% who re-ject the PES. Even PES is quiet potential inreducing poverty in these areas. Even in the societylevel such as huge support in Polder systems, socialcapital and local wisdom, the system management ofpolder should be designed appropriately and have to increasethe level of participation in decision making.Another factor is also important is polder institutionwhich has to be design clearly and transparent based onperformance standart.

Abstract

Various concepts, models or theoretical frameworksare on offer, to frame the public in fighting againstcorruption in Indonesia. They include: bureaucraticreform, good governance, civil society engagementetc. In response to the failure to bring corruptionfreestatus, experts unnoticeably tend to blame publicofficers instead of ensuring the accuracy and thereliability of the framework. This reflective literaturereview reveals such tendency. To begin with, it mapsout the logical basis of each approach, particularlyin conceptualizing the ‘public’, the ‘private’, andtheir relationship. The reliability of the approacheswill emerge as we link the conceptualization withreal life the public or socio-cultural context. The reviewreveals that analysis on corruption and its imperativeare ideologically driven, and hence, suffersfrom ideological bias. It obsesses with altering thebehaviour of public officers, which inevitably entrappedwith particular set-up. As liberal discoursetake place in non-liberal institutional set-up, thepublic fail to comprehend the nature of the problemsand the solution on offer. Instead of setting upcontext-specific agenda, public a dragged on variousforms of reform such as granting political rights,enhancing civil society, articulate more autonomyand alike. As overwhelming individual within thebattles against corruption overloaded with assertingof more public role, they encountered with difficultyin setting the boundary between the public and theprivate. As Indonesia has been endowed with differentinstitutional set-up in governing public affairs,corruption-free public governance remains elusive.This is because the reforms dismantle the existing powerbase, which actually is vital for winning the fight against corruptivesystemKEYWORDS: public, private, corruption

Abstract

This study will examine the implementation of Jamkesmas (Jaminan Kesehatan Masyarakat-Health Insurance Schemefor People) and Jamkedsa (Jaminan Kesehatan Masyarakat Daerah-Health Insurance Scheme for Local People). Both areinno-vative policies in term of health financing, since they reflect more the spirit of insurance compared to the previouspolicies which were merely about financial aid. However, these policies do not reflect the ideals of policy coordination.Several theoretical reviews about social health insurance are applied to figure out the spirit of Indonesian health insurancesocio-logically and culturally. The Colebatch’s framework of vertical and horizontal dimensions of policy is used as themain tool of analysis for measuring whether both Jamkesmas and Jamkesda are categorized as coordinated policies or not.Qualitative research approach is used as the method in order to gain in-depth information about the current polemic ofJamkesmas and Jamkesda implementations. Qualitative analysis method is applied during the process of analysis. Thesecondary data will be collected, sorted, coded and analyzed. Those several steps aim to cross check the validity of each datafor answering the research questions. The result of this study shows that Jamkesmas and Jamkedsa lack of coordinationduring the process of policy making which has led to complicated problems at the implementation stage namely: thelawsuit/multiple interpretations of the law, unstructured policy stages at the vertical level, complicated problems athorizontal stages and conflict among institutional governments. Moreover, the nature of policy coordinationin Indonesia is still reactive. This fact causes policy inconsistency which has the effect of law uncertainty and poorquality of public services.

Abstract

The introduction of Business Process Reengineering (BPR) to the public sector follows the much broader trend of NewPublic Management. BPR in the public sector mostly means amalgamation of business processes, computerization of variousactivities and removal of some unnecessary ones. BPR assimilates a radical premeditated scheme of business pro-cessreengineering and an additional progressive technique of uninterrupted process improvement with adequate informationtechnology (IT) and e-business infrastructure strategies. Public organizations have specific and exclusive features thatdifferentiae-ate them from private sector organizations. Based on the literature review and examining of study find-ings, it isargued that a public sector organization can employ BPR to get better its process and overall organizational performance, if it (1)has accrues a collection of BPR-relevant resources and capabilities; (2) has embarked on BPR with adequate depth and breadth;(3) is developing a post-BPR complementary set of skills, systems and technologies, which are essential to further develop theorganizational impact of the BPR; and (4) has successfully mitigated the effects of BPR implementation problems. In addition toits effect on administration and ser-vice delivery processes through reduction of the processing time, work steps and cost ofgovernment processes, BPR also contributes to enhancing citizen/customer and employee satisfaction, increasing organizationaltransparency and responsiveness which have also become an essential objective of New Public Management. Therefore, publicsectorBPR is emerging as an indispensable to performance of organizations in the developing economy. The essential questionsaddressed in this paper are: What are the scenario and impending problems of reengineering applications in the public sector?Can it be functional for the public sector in attending to frequent problems blockading bureaucracies of developed anddeveloping countries uniformly? What are the implementation vulnerabilities faced by public sector while deploying BPR.
