Manajemen Strategis Lingkungan Hidup: Kasus Bapedalda Kota Palembang
In the past. enviromental management in Indonesia had always been handled by central government. With the wave of reforms and the implementation of decentralisation policy, local governments are now challenged to manage and tackle environmental problems on their own. In line with this current policy change and situation, the city council of Palembang has enacted Local Act (Perda) No.1 of 1999 and established Local Environmental Control Agency (Bapedalda). The main task of Bapedalda is to control environmental hazards and maintain a good level of environment conditions.
Findings from this preliminary study show that environmental problems might become more serious with the decentralization policy as most of local governments does not have adequate attention to the environmental degradations. In The case of Palembang, although Bapedalda has a good potential in terms of human resources, technology, and budget, many of the local environmental problems cannot be 4nanaged properly. The function of Bapedalda is still impeded by lack of commitment among the local top authority, development policy that is concerned more on industry and economic aspects, and lack of public support and participation on environment preservation due to negative cultural attitude. In the near future, there are some strategies to be taken by Bapedalda, namely: 1) to set up a standard for environment quality and to identify the main sources of pollutions, 2) to build close cooperation with other local agencies and to improve skills in environment management, and 3) to improve public participation in

Ebtanas SMUdan UMPTN Sebagai Bottleneck: Perlunya Pembaruan Kebijakan Penidikan yang Rasional
As an instrument to gauge the competence and competition in learning process, Ebtanas (Standard National Grades) and UMPTN (Admission Test for State Universities) in Indonesian education system have changed into a myth of schooling. Not only that the Ebtanas and UMPTN have become the aims of schooling, but also become "traffic lights" that direct schools' management. In the schools, teachers always encourage students to be successful in Ebtanas and UMPTN tests. They make Ebtanas and UMPTN as the only reference and guideline. Other subjects such as religion, morals, culture and literary apreciation, and personality development -- the important fundamentals for affective education -- are ignored. At the same time, parents and the society generally perceive school cis a place for their children to drill their children to be. able to compete in achieving a good Ebtanas Standard Grade (NEM) and a success in UMPTN. The Ministry of Education makes the NEM and UMPTN as the only indicators of the success of schooling.
The educational policy flaws are aggravated by other policy failures with 1994 Curriculum, which over-emphasising on formal schools of SLTP and SMU. Other vocational schools (SMK) that are in better position to provide employment and support economic development are generally marginalised. With the Curriculum 1994, all of the SLTP, SMU, and SMK students' achievement is measured by the NEM, and later by the UMPTN for entering the state universities. Consequently, the number of students who want to be enrolled in universities is not followed by the capacity. There is no doubt that Ebtanas and UMPTN constitute the bottleneck. There is a "university intoxicated zone" that must be corrected by: ( 1) Reconstructing Ebtanas and UMPTN simultaneously to create a rational flow to the university, and (2) To change the fundamental policy for higher education. It is urgently required that the government give a fair playing field to the formal as well as vocational schools

Mekanisme Sosial dan Kebijakan Sosial Lansia: Perbedaan Desa Industri dan Desa Agraris
The ageing society as a result of a longer life expectancy is an important phenomenon in the twentieth century. During the 1980s, the early of the first stage of long term development in Indonesia, the rate of life expectancy only reach the age of 43. It then increased sharply to 64 in the period of 1995-2000. In 1980s the number ofelderly people was 11,4 million and it is predicted that in 2000 it would upsurge to 22,2 - million. Consequently, the situation is also followed by the increasing elderly dependency ratio of Indonesian population from 10% to 13% within last 15 years. It appears, therefore, that this new trend would has important effect on the issues of demography, economy, social and public administration.
This paper tries to reveal the problem of the ageing population in terms of public administration and social mechanism. Empirical study is conducted in Keboansikep as a typical industrial district, and Sriharjo as a typical rural- agricultural district. The objective of this study is to recognize the role of the family, social mechanism, nongovernmental institution and the government policy as the societal elements which have been contributing integratively in providing social security for the elderly. The theoretical basis for this kind social policy can be drawn from the concepts of equity, welfare and societal necessities. More importantly, however, there are some technical aspect of such social security which should be understood by the public decision makers
Keuangan Negara: Reformulasi Kriteria Proyek Dalam Rangka Klasifikasi Anggaran Pengeluaran
A distinctive classification should be applied to government budget, particularly between budget allocation for consumption and for investment. This is important for policy makers so that they will be able to forecast investment and consumption effects on economic growth and inflation. In Indonesian budget system, unclear criteria to distinguish routine and development budget also creates many problematic situations in managing public finance.
This article offers some alternatives to solve the problem. One simple solution is to reformulate what is the so-called projects. Projects are an activity or a group of activities which has certain goals and objectives, attains to result new physical or non-physical assets in the form of goods, services or capability improvements. Those activities are managed whithin certain span of time and amount of fund. Instead of consumptions, projects are primarily investments. If this alternative is implemented consistently in the budget allocation systems, it may decrease the figure of government saving and number of Project List Proposal (Daftar Isian Proyek - DIP), which may not be favorable for implementors who have vested interest. By doing so, however, overlapped activities which are funded by routine and development budget can be avoided substantially. Government accounting system would be more efficient because every projects should be resulted in investment.
A more radical approach is to invalidate the distinction between routine and development (non-routine) budget allocation by all means. Productivity and accountability would be the main criteria for all forms of the government fund allocation. There should be a fundamental change in the government budget cycle. Government saving should be formulated into: the subtraction between domestic revenue and additional finance (belanja penunjang), and T-account system in the government budget (APBN) should be substantially modified. Finally, all of these remedies depend on effort to distinguish clearly between routine and project criteria through a transparent definition and vision of those who manage the budget allocation system

Jejaring Advokasi Kebijakan dalam Mendukung Gerakan Anti Korupsi di Daerah Studi Tentang Aktor dan Strategi Kelompok
This article examines the effectiveness of networking advocacy system in the eradication of corruption in the local government. The principal argument is that various approaches to combat corruption have not been effective which implies the need for different alternatives. The study intends to determine the role of actors involved in building system advocacy network in supporting anti-corruption movement in local governments, particularly in cases of corruption that involved school textbooks in Slean district.
The result of this study indicate that the networking system of advocacy for the eradication of corruption in the region, involving people in power (regent) in this case study is not effective. This can be judged from the handling of the legal process which still very slow. To that end, there is need to take advantage of networking advocacy system to enhance synergy among acors in anti-corruption (public, university student/ university/ NGO’s media) in controlling corruption cases. The main problem in building advocacy networks among actors is the diversity of agenda of different actors as well as lake of consistency and little knowledge in building the networking movement.
This study recommends that anti-corruption actors in local government should play a role in “capacity building from within” with the institutions directly related to anti-corruption agenda. More ever, there is also need for “pressure form without” achieved through strengthening of the anti-corruption agenda
