Description
Summary:The aim of this research is to examine the concept of local government capacity building in both<br />theoretical and operational aspects, regarding especially with local authorities in Indonesia, after the<br />enforcement of regional autonomy. This is a basic research (fundamental research) of library research<br />type. Data collection technique involves using data sourced from a variety of secondary sources, as it<br />should be; books, journals, and related legislation. To draw a conclusion regarding with the building of<br />regional capacity after the implementation of regional autonomy, the data are analyzed using descriptive<br />analysis technique; that is, examining secondary data based on Indonesian condition. This research<br />concludes that Capacity Building is a huge job for the an autonomous local government, particularly<br />when dealing with the system which is deemed to prioritize self-serving rather than public serving; yet<br />this capacity building mission deserves to fight for. Stakeholders (other than legislatives) need to<br />regularly monitor the improved performance of the government so that the high expectation of the society<br />could be fulfilled through the enforcement of regional autonomy.
