Villages in Indonesia have entered a new phase after the establishment of Law Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages four years ago. In light of the legislation that demands village finances that are directly controlled by village heads and citizens, there has been a profound shift. Settlements are beginning to emerge from the shadows of the world’s orbit as a result of massive infrastructural development in the villages. development of the village.
There were a number of guidelines provided for the construction of a community that is supposedly capable of reviving the village economy on a large scale. Priority initiatives include prukades, reservoirs, BUMDes, and village sports facilities, all of which are undertaken as part of a community development strategy from within. These four projects are then mostly executed by the community, in addition to the town’s priority requirements, which are selected by the village. Villages arise with a wide range of possibilities, even ones that are previously unimaginable.
Directly checked village funding’ implementation in villages by visiting the Villages, Development of Disadvantaged Regions, and Transmigration Office. We’re well aware that the Ministry of Villages is a very new organization. The formation of the Ministry of Villages, however, is part of the Indonesian government’s vow, notably that of President Joko Widodo, to implement the Village Law’s mission. It doesn’t matter whether you like it or not, the Ministry of Villages is working hard to actualize the dream of a village that is completely autonomous and sovereign.
Twenty-seven percent of Indonesian villages are classified as Disadvantaged Villages, while the remaining 68.86 percent are classified as Developing Villages and 2,904 Independent Villages, according to Bappenas statistics from 2014. Non-state players such as village empowerment activist groups are also included in the list of parties, which includes the federal government. The central government’s Village Fund is merely a minor portion of the state’s resources for village development. There should be an acceptance that the village can create itself from within, rather than from outside, of the state’s acknowledgment and transfer of control over the family and its own resources.
