Consistency between Political Party’s Program and Policy Product in Bandung Regency

MIMBAR, Jurnal Sosial dan Pembangunan, 2017

After political parties win election, several political issues will be formulated into a series of alternative policy. Based on this system, political parties have a role to collect the will of society and then use it as consideration to make various public policies. Vision and mission of Golkar as the winner of 2010 elections, has become vision and mission of all SKPD even the village chief. The realization of the programs when Golkar's candidate used rural development policy product as source of campaign in 2010-2015 local elections for Bandung Regent, have been consistent. In the other side, the obstacles are human resources in rural areas which frequently changed when trained by BPMPD, late disbursement in rural development and grants for Uninhabitable Houses (Rumah Tidak Layak Huni) are insufficient and not equally distributed. Moreover, the policy has been already consistent between Golkar's programs with the product of public policy, particularly in the field of rural development. If the government is able to cover up weaknesses in the implementation of rural development programs, it should fulfill the needs of rural communities for employments on dry season as priority program for the followings years. Based on this research,it can be concluded that, in the micro policy level, the policies face a distortion because of the mismatch between the tasks and functions BPMPD in reality.

Political money are a forms of abuse, p olitik money can be done by granting the form of money or goods such as food to the people in order for them to vote for the party concerned a tau may also mean vote-buying in the political process and power and the act of handing out money either privately or by a party to influence the voter's vote. The method used in this paper is normative juridical legal research. In Law No. 7 of 2017 concerning Elections Article 1 point 1 that Elections are a means of people's sovereignty to elect members of the DPR, DPD members, the President and vicepresident and to elect members of the DPRD which are carried out directly, publicly, freely, confidentially, honestly and fairly. in the unitary state of the Republic of Indonesia based on Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution. Thus, elections are an important means for the people in the life of the state, namely by electing their representatives who in turn will control the wheels of government. However, in reality, few people are aware of the importance of the community's role in elections. As a result, it is difficult to prove the practice of money politics , thus making the candidates who will be elected freely practice money politics with the aim of getting the most votes in the implementation of the election .

Conceptualizing Party Financing Legislation in Malaysia: Between Normative and Reality

The Asia-Pacific Journal of Elections and Democracy, 2021

How political parties finance their operations is not well regulated in Malaysia. There is no specific law that oversees the myriad ways political parties raise funds and to what purpose they are used. This stands in contrast to neighboring Indonesia and the Philippines, where there are laws that regulate party financing. As a result, corruption in the name of political donations is rampant in Malaysia, the infamous one being the 1MDB scandal that presently ensnares the former Prime Minister, Najib Razak. However, absence of a law that regulates party financing and the inability of the current government to enact one does not mean that Malaysia should sideline the importance of keeping political parties in line with democratic norms. In this article we argue for a normative party financing model based on five criteria if Malaysia is to promulgate a legislation to regulate political parties’ finances. We suggest the proposed legislation should incorporate reporting mechanism that enforces transparency and accountability; level playing field that allows common people and smaller parties to have a stronger voice in politics; reducing patronage politics; easing ethnoreligious tensions; and establishing clear separation between business and politics. We interviewed numerous party representatives, academics, and Election Commission official to solicit their inputs on the substance and viability of this proposed party funding legislation based on the abovementioned five criteria. The article ends with a set of recommendations on the ways to move forward with this proposed legislation or its iterations, both at the federal and state levels.
