Commitment Background


What are the public issues that are resolved in this commitment?

In supporting effective budget management, the Government has developed an information portal related to the COVID-19 budget handling on the www.kemenkeu.go.id/covid19 page. The portal presents various infographics and regulations related to COVID-19 handling in Indonesia. However, information regarding the budget realisation of the COVID-19 budget at the central and regional government levels has not been accessible to the public.

What is the commitment?

The COVID-19 budget disclosure that can provide information to the public regarding budget realisation during the pandemic handling at the central and regional levels.

How will the commitment contribute to solving the public problem?

The lack of community involvement in monitoring and supervising the COVID-19 budget is one of the causes of ineffectiveness. A COVID-19 budget portal that can provide detailed information will support the monitoring and implementation process. Supervision of the emergency budget is needed as large budget allocation is prone to abuse and corruption.

Why is this commitment relevant to the Open Government values?

Allegations of ineffective implementation of the COVID-19 budget will be minimised if the community is involved, especially in the monitoring and supervision process. In other words, this encourages the value of open government, namely transparency and participation.

Commitment Alignment with the National Medium Term Development Plan (RPJMN) and SDGs

This commitment is aligned with the target of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) No. 16: "Strengthening Inclusive and Peaceful Communities for Sustainable Development, Providing Access to Justice for All, and Building Effective, Accountable and Inclusive Institutions at All Levels", especially on the target 16.6 namely developing effective, accountable and transparent institutions at all levels and targets 16.10 namely ensuring public access to information and protecting fundamental freedoms, following national regulations and international agreements. In the 2020-2024 RPJMN, cultivating the values ​​of transparency and accountability in governance is one of the cornerstones of one of the national agendas, namely the Mental Revolution and Cultural Development. In addition, transparency and accountability in the use of state expenditures are also one of the Development Implementation Guidelines, which is realised through the development of system and data integration in planning, budgeting, and evaluation documents through the use of the same and up-to-date database.
