Abstract

This research aims to discover the challenges of Golden Indonesia 2045 by
identifying the regional autonomy in Indonesia, village autonomy in Indonesia, development planning mechanism in Indonesia, acceleration of Development in Indonesia, and challenges of Golden Indonesia 2045 in the Indonesian National Development Planning. This is an effort to evaluate decentralization in Indonesia. This study uses the Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA) method in public policy analysis. Primary data includes legal frameworks and expert interviews, while secondary data is derived from government reports, academic journals, and books. The data collected will then be analyzed using the theories used in this study, namely decentralization. The study results stated that the decentralization and autonomy implemented in Indonesia need to run more purely and optimally. In this case, Indonesia is more oriented towards centralization. All the authority of local governments and governments under them is based on and is very dependent on the central government. The construction of Indonesia’s government system through the avoidance of the authority of the entire local government through pure autonomy that allows it to be absolute results in the dependence of local governments on the central government. The development planning model in Indonesia must be bottom-up and participatory. This can be implemented through decentralization and pure autonomy by the central government for local and village governments. The study recommends granting greater authority to local and village governments, enabling them to develop and document strategic development plans (RPJPD, RPJMD, and RPJM) in alignment with national objectives.
