Papua Province is an area whose development is still lagging behind in Indonesia. The continually conflicts causes the development of the Province of Papua is very behind compared to other regions. To overcome this problem, the government provides special autonomy funds to make improvements in the fields of education, poverty, health, economic improvement and infrastructure. This study analyzes the differences in the fields of education, health and poverty before and after the granting of the Papua special autonomy fund. By analyzing these areas, we can see the effectiveness of the special autonomy fund after 18 years of funding by the central government. This study is a policy study (policy research) by collecting data and then analyzed into a conclusion and recommendation. The method used in this study is descriptive qualitative. Data collection techniques are done through literature study and Focus Group Discussion. The results of this study indicate that the conditions of education, health, and poverty alleviation before and after special autonomy did not change significantly. The change is very slow when compared to the large amount of special autonomy funds allocated each year. This is caused by the institutional system of government that has not worked effectively and efficiently as well as in the quality and quantity of existing human resources.

One of the efforts made by the government to increase development is by developing the field of investment, because economically investment is the first step in production activities. In this regard, to create a realization of sustainable investment, a conducive investment climate is needed. A conducive investment climate in the economy is a hope for the community, investors, business people and the government. This study aims to analyze and explain the strategies of the Banyuwangi Regency Government as an effort to create a Conducive Investment Climate that is useful for regional development. This research was conducted using qualitative methods with a case study approach. Data collection techniques that will be used in this study include interviews, focus group discussions, documentation and literature studies. The results showed that BanyuwangiRegency implemented regulations on investment by implementing several e-Government applications that had the function of transparency, accountability, and facilitating public services related to investment. E-government leads to good governance because government services are more transparent, effective and efficient so as to form public trust which has an impact on increasing investment interest by investors. The increase in investment was also caused by policies or regulations that favored the creation of a conducive investment climate.

Reformasi sistem Pemerintahan Republik Indonesia yang di antaranya ditandai dengan perubahan dari sistem sentralisasi menjadi desentralisasi telah berimbas pada trend pemekaran daerah. Tapi, mulai akhir tahun 2014 pemerintah menerapkan kebijakan moratorium pembentukan Daerah Otonomi Baru (DOB) dengan alasan untuk fokus menyelesaikan masalah besarnya defisit anggaran sebelum mencabut moratorium tersebut. Tujuan kajian ini adalah untuk menganalisis faktor-faktor pendorong pembentukan DOB di Indonesia selama era reformasi dan bagaimana dampaknya terhadap keuangan negara. Kajian ini bersifat kajian kebijakan (policy research) dengan menghimpun data kemudian di analisis menjadi sebuah kesimpulan dan rekomendasi. Jenis kajian ini adalah studi literatur dengan metode yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif kualitatif. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa sejak era reformasi, pembentukan daerah otonomi baru sangat masif terjadi. Jika dihitung rata-rata dari 1999-2014, setiap tahun DOB provinsi dan kabupaten/kota bertambah sebanyak 13 DOB per tahun. Pembentukan DOB membutuhkan persiapan dan biaya yang cukup besar, mulai dari pembentukan awal hingga penyelenggaraannya. Selain itu, secara umum DOB menunjukkan dependensi fiskal yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan daerah lama. Dengan demikian, dapat dinyatakan bahwa pemebentukan DOB tersebut telah menimbulkan tekanan terhadap keuangan negara (APBN) akibat besarnya jumlah dana yang harus ditransfer kepada daerah-daerah baru.
