Abstract
Indonesia's decentralized policy is an expenditure type of decentralization. It has evolved from setting functional assignments to coordinating expenditure programs across levels of government. This study will compare the types of cooperation that have taken place in three sectors of expenditure programs: (1) environmental – carbon emission mitigation programs, (2) infrastructure programs, and (3) social assistance programs. We investigate challenges and opportunities of central government support that can still be salience for the sub-national and local government involvement on those
expenditure programs.
