IS INDONESIAN LOCAL GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABLE TO THE POOR? EVIDENCE FROM HEALTH POLICY IMPLEMENTATION
Diego Fossati 동아시아연구원 2016 Journal of East Asian Studies Vol.16 No.3
Since decentralization in 2001, Indonesian local governments have acquired a key role in poverty alleviation and social service delivery. The extent to which they have been able to meet this challenge is subject to debate, however, and systematic analysis of policy outcomes remains scarce. This paper contributes to the literature with a study of the district-level implementation of Jamkesmas, Indonesia’s free healthcare program for the poor. Using original data on policy implementation, I show that local government is to some extent responsive to the needs of the most vulnerable. In years when local elections (pilkada) are implemented, low-income households are targeted more accurately, suggesting that electoral incentives for local elites may increase access to social services among the poor. However, I also show that the positive effect of local direct elections is limited to districts with electorally competitive politics.
