Abstract

The implementation of e-government is, actually,not a new issue in the government. However, thepolicy of e-government implementation in manygovernmental elements, especially in the localgovernment seems to be forced withoutconsidering the different readiness levels of thegovernment personnel and the people in each localgovernment. On the one side, many researchfindings show that the factors of governmentalhuman resources, the public, the infrastructure, andthe working practice are still being obstacles toachieve a successful e-government implementation.On the other hand, other research findings alsostrengthen that in its implementation, egovernmenthas some elements which should befulfilled. They are e-administration, e-services, ande-society. Three of them are unified elements whichsupport each other in order to realize egovernment.Many problems faced by some localgovernments in implementing e-government,including the government of Yogyakarta City, clarifythat there are fundamental problems in realizingthe e-government elements which consist of eadministration,e-services, and e-society. For certaingovernmental institutions, an explanation of therelationship between the implementation of egovernmentprogram and many available theories isa valuable contribution to solve inter-elementsrelationship for realizing good governance, on theone hand, and, on the other hand, it is alsobeneficial for them to learn best practice for thegovernment in order to achieve good localgovernance. The results of this study show that theimplementation of e-government which requiresthe availability of e-administration, e-services, ande-society has been realized by the government of Yogyakarta City.However, although those programs have been realized physically, onthe actual, the unpreparedness of the government personnel as wellas the public society and also the cultural factors are still being someproblems which impede the successful implementation of egovernment.In addition, the city government’s commitment to keepcontinuing the easy service development to the community is a keyto the implementation of e-government in the scope of citygovernment in Yogyakarta.Key words: e-government, e-administration, e-services, and e-society

Abstract

One manifestation of women’s leadership is their representation in politics. Although regulation for their participation is implemented, representation in elected office is lower than anticipated.  This article discusses women’s representation as leaders in strategic positions, the challenges of affirmative action regulation and the cultural barriers they face in Indonesia and Greece. The study was conducted in Indonesia and Greece, with documentation method as data collection technique such as: affirmative action regulation on women’s participation in strategic positions and official statistics of women in office. Mix methods employed for data analysis. The findings show three results. Firstly, there are differences in the representation of women as leaders both in numbers and strategic positions held between the two countries. The number of women representatives in parliament in Indonesia is lower than that of Greece, with 17 % and 20% respectively. However, the most important position obtained by a woman in Indonesia is state leader, whilst in Greece is merely minister. Secondly, both countries have implemented legislation for affirmative action regulating the percentage of women candidates. The challenge is how to ensure a raise of women representation as leaders in strategic positions. Finally, women still face cultural barriers such as stereotyping, marginalization and sub-ordination. Civic education providing skills and gender sensitivity concerning leadership for men and women can outdo the barriers. Concluding, differences of women’s leadership in Indonesia and Greece are seen in their number, position, regulation and cultural barriers. This study recommends both countries to conduct regulation concerning women’s representation, not candidacy.

Abstract

This research was conducted on fiscal decentralization in Ethiopia with the case of basic sectors of Sibu Sire Woreda, East Wollega Zone, Oromia Regional State. To attain the objective, researchers relied on primary data followed by secondary sources. To obtain primary data, mixed approach with descriptive design was considered. Probability and non-probability samplings were employed to get the sample of size of 96 whereas non-probability sampling technique was used to select 18 key informants’ interviewees (KIIs) and 7 participants for focus group discussion (FGD).       The findings of this research revealed that the principle of fiscal decentralization that is autonomy of sectors is not found in practice. The selected sectors were highly dependent on the allocated regional grant and have very little capacity (null in some sectors) to generate internal revenue. The expenditure responsibilities of the five selected sectors in the Woreda were limited to recurrent expenditures except road sector and to some extent water sector. Data proved the existence of both vertical and horizontal imbalances in terms of revenue generation capacity and percentage of budget share of each sector that ultimately hinder the fiscal autonomy of the sectors in particular and that of the Woreda and local government in general.

Abstract

This study seeks to explore the significant contributions of the new philanthropy towards improving the conditions of smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan African, smallholder farmers’ understanding of philanthropy and to investigate the relationship that exists between philanthropy and smallholder farmers. The research is designed to uncover the needs and drivers of both philanthropy and smallholder farmers in relation to their interaction and the fulfilment of the philanthropic contract they have entered into. The main objective of the thesis is to consider the potential of philanthropy to rural transformation for poverty reduction. It focus is the involvement of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in rural development and poverty reduction in Ghana. Since 2006 the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (Gates Foundation) has dedicated $1.7 billion to assisting smallholder farmers. The bulk of this investment has been delivered through programmes  associated with the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA), which is also supported by the Rockefeller Foundation(Thompson, 2012). This study observed an inherent discrepancies and organisational miscalculations that have adverse influence on the effective collaboration and implementation of philanthropic support to the selected farmers. Untimely release of farming inputs as well as exceedingly unfavourable conditions for the attractions of loans makes it difficult for smooth farming. This exercise also established that both men and women intercrop their farms to ensure household food securityand income. Household decisions on which medium of farming to pursue and on use of the income from farming are generally taken by men. Due to these, this research emphasise that philanthropic offering in Ghana should be looked at dispassionately bearing in mind the socio-culturally diverse nature of thecountry itself as well as key environmental factors that hugely contributeto poverty.KEYWORD:Philanthropy, Poverty Reduction, Green Revolution, RuralDevelopment, Ghana

Abstract

The linkage between democracy and citizen happiness in developing countries is rarely examined. This study examines the link between democracy and citizen happiness in Indonesia, a new emerging democratic country in South East Asia. Data comes from the Indonesian Family Life Survey 2007 (Nindividual = 29.055; Nhousehold = 12.528; Ndistrict = 262) and the Indonesian Family Survey East 2012 (Nindividual = 5.910; Nhousehold = 2.546; Ndistrict = 55). Results from a three-level ordinary logit model show that democracy as measured by age of direct local democracy is not associated with citizen happiness. Instead of age of direct local democracy, district community social capital and spending public services give benefit for citizen happiness.The results are robust against individual and district characteristics relatedto happiness. The results highlight the importance of promoting community social capital and improving district capacity in delivering public service to improve citizen happiness in Indonesia.Keywords: democracy, happiness, three-level ordinary logit model, Indonesia

Abstract

For more than two decades, Public Private Partnerships(PPP) had developed worldwide as an instrumentto procure public infrastructure where governmentfunds are limited. This practice supports thecovergent theory of the public and private sector.Indonesia experience with PPP follows most of whathad been done by countries overseas with somedeviations. The main reasons for going for PPP forIndonesia government is to fill the gap in financeand capability in procuring the infrastructure. Unofficialreason such as for off-balance sheet and ideologicalis not relevant. Up to now, the Governmentonly allow investment in hard economic infrastructure.Instead of using pure private finance, IndonesiaGovernment facilitates public funds either fromCentral Government or Local Governments to financePPP projects. In most cases, this involvementis because of marginality of the project. This resultsin the condition where the Government still hasdominant role in the existing PPP projects. Comparedto the PPP framework in other countries likein the UK, Indonesia PPP lacks of attention on outputspecification and risk transfer. This may be becauseof lacking of experiences as well as due tohigh degree of Government involvement. Rigorouspolicy is needed in this area to ensure Governmentto achieve better value for money.Keywords: Public-Private Partnerships, Public InfrastructureProcurement, International PPP, IndonesiaPPP, value for money mechanism
