savings. This series of schemes from planning to reporting and accountability is a plan that has
been prepared and carried out every year and repeated continuously. Not without reason all of
that is done to meet needs that cannot be budgeted. One type of thing that they must pay and
cannot be budgeted for is levies from the district attorney and the local police resort. Every
year the village must pay 30-50 million to continue the cooperation. The cooperation is meant
to secure the village and its officials from prison or other cases.
Villages that have cooperated with law enforcement will always be protected and receive
accurate information. For example, if there is going to be an inspection from the inspectorate
to the village, the law enforcer will contact the village to prepare the things that will be
inspected. If there is a report from the community or an NGO about a development project that
is disputed or may be considered not in accordance with existing regulations, the law enforcer
will inform and secure the matter. If there is a problem that drags the name of the village or its
officials into the realm of law, the law enforcement officer will side with the village.
This is one of the reasons why village officials and financial managers feel safe and not
worried when committing fraud because they are protected by those who should process their
actions, so they feel secure. If the savings they collect in one fiscal year are still left over, they
will be divided between the village head, village secretary, and village treasurer. Thus, from
the planning stage, anything related to finance only revolves around these three people because
it is their secret. The village head is the one who gets the largest share of the remainder, which
they often refer to as pulihan, which is compensation for all the capital he spent when he was
running to become village head.
Recommendation
Based on the results of the study, it is recommended to further improve transparency and
community participation in decision-making related to the budget and use of village funds and
to strengthen internal and external monitoring mechanisms in village financial management.
