This article departs from the weak commitment of the Riau Province Government in handling forest fires. Law Number 23 in 2014 stated that the forestry affairs has transferred from regencies/cities to provinces. In that sense, the Riau Province Government should be followed by budget support for fire forest prevention programs. In fact, the budget policies of the Riau Province Government have not shown maximum results for forest fire prevention programs. The research method used a qualitative with case study approach. We used several data collection techniques such as in-depth interviews, observation, documentation and focus group discussions. The findings show that policymakers are alienated from their obligation to prioritize forest fire issues in budgeting. Powerlessness and meaninglessness clearly injure the trust of the public, which often feels suffering when forest fires occur. In the future, it is necessary to make various strategies, including environmental-based budget planning and increasing public participation in monitoring budget planning.

Planning and budgeting process is the most crucial process in the administration of local government. Results of previous studies in Solok, the increase in the total budget is not accompanied by spending management capabilities. Expenditure of public service has always fluctuated, but ideally should always increasing. This study aimed to analyze the outcome of the budget in the allocation of public spending in an effort to realize the presence of trust on the budget in Solok West Sumatra Province. This study uses qualitative research methods with the type of research that is selected using descriptive type. While the techniques of data collection are done through an interview, observation and documentation study. This study further highlights the emic perspective, is the voice of the informant, not the personal opinion of the researchers (etic). Then, the data analysis is done categorically and chronologically, viewed repeatedly, and will continue to be encoded. To test the verification of data, triangulation is done by comparing the results of interviews with documents obtained in the field and testing of concepts used by researchers with the information given by the informant. The results showed that the pathology was found that budget allocations reflect inefficiencies as a failure of the link between policy, planning, and budgeting as a fragmented system. But on the other hand, it must be admitted there has been "trust" among policymaking actors in allocating public expenditure budget in playing the role in the budget policy.
