This research identifies factors affecting the publication of financial reports in the internet or known as internet financial reporting (IFR) after the issuance of Home Minister Instruction No. 188.52/1797/SJ year 2012 on Improving Transparency of Local Budget Management. One hundred and seventy five cities and regencies were selected as samples based on purposive sampling and analysed by using multiple regression. The result shows that political competition and size of local government asset has positive influence on the IFR. This indicates that Heads of local government whose political party is not majority and Heads of local government with greater asset size, had used IFR as media to show their performance to the public. This is consistence with stewardships theory that asymmetric information between local government (stewards) with the public (principals) can be reduced through accountability and transparency of financial management whereby the pressure and ability to do it appeared significantly in local governments with high political competition and with relatively greater asset. In this research, some other potential factors such as leverage, own-source revenue, type of local government (city or regency) and audit opinion are not proven to influence the IFR practices in the local governments.

The objective of this study is to answer the question should the annual budget continue to be the basic document and the basis for the financial management of local governments, or is it necessary to make changes in the budget system. These doubts arise from the research question: whether the referred annual budget in the current conditions is a tool of stabilization of the financial system of local government units or not? Introduced in the Public Finance Act of 2009, the system of two independent documents, i.a. the annual budget and the long-term financial forecast, without specification of hierarchy, relationship and connection between these documents, does not lead to financial stability of local government from both the point of view of implementation of the budget and the consequences of decisions made by the local government authorities. The lessons that have been learned indicate that the annual budgeting is increasingly leading to destabilization of the financial system of local government units

Salah satu penyebab revitalisasi adalah adanya tuntutan pertanggungjawaban terhadap publik (accountability). Melalui peningkatan pertanggungjawaban maka keterbukaan informasi kepada masyarakat semakin luas. Sebagai principal, masyarakat berhak mengetahui informasi terkait kinerja instansi sektor publik untuk bahan evaluasi dan kontrol terhadap pengelolaan sumber daya yang telah diamanahkan. Kini peningkatan akuntabilitas tidak hanya dilakukan oleh pemerintah pusat dan pemerintah daerah saja. Pemerintah desa juga turut serta dalam mewujudkan pemerintahan yang bertanggungjawab (accountable), terutama atas pengelolaan keuangan desa agar tidak terjadi penyelewengan dana. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pelaksanaan Undang-Undang Nomor 6 Tahun 2014 dalam mewujudkan akuntabilitas pengelolaan keuangan desa dari sisi perencanaan, pelaksanaan, penatausahaan, pelaporan, pertanggungjawaban, pembinaan dan pengawasan keuangan desa. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif komparatif yaitu mendiskripsikan pengelolaan keuangan desa di Desa Banggle dan Desa Toyomarto kemudian membandingkan dengan Undang-Undang Nomor 6 Tahun 2014 dan aturan penunjangnya, sehingga dapat ditarik sebuah kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa berdasarkan Undang-Undang Nomor 6 Tahun 2014 secara garis besar pengelolaan keuangan Desa Banggle dan Toyomarto telah accountable, namun secara teknis masih banyak kendala. Kendala tersebut seperti perencanaan desa yang tidak tepat waktu, keterlambatan pencairan dana dari pemerintah daerah ke desa, keterlambatan pelaporan kepada bupati, laporan pertanggungjawaban belum terpublikasi kepada masyarakat, dan pembinaan serta pengawasan dari pemerintah daerah yang kurang maksimal. Sehingga perlu adanya pendampingan yang intensif untuk memperbaiki pengelolaan keuangan desa di Desa Banggle dan Desa Toyomarto.</p>

Overdue financial statements reporting, more specifically audit delay, can cause losses in its capacity in decision making. We investigate the effects of auditor characteristics on local governments’ audit delay by studying 127 Indonesian local governments. We find that auditor professional proficiency and auditor educational background have significant effect on the audit delay of local government financial statements. Our results also indicate the intersection of some auditor characteristics in affecting audit delay. Our findings mainly suggest that the auditor professional proficiency should be improved to shrink audit delay.

Despite the expectation that social media use in the public sector contributes to enhancing government's transparency, few studies have been investigated whether social media use actually leads to more disclosure during environmental incidents in practice and how social media influence local governments and their officials' information disclosure. In this article, we model information disclosure during environmental incidents as an evolutionary game process between the central government and local government in social media context, and examine the internal mechanism that how social media influence the progress of information disclosure during environmental incidents. The findings indicate that social media plays an active constructive role in central-local government game relations. Specific- ally, social media can provides an efficient information channels for the central government supervise regional officials in environmental incidents, and thus improves its supervision efficiency, and it also provides an important means for internet mobilization and online-offline interaction by encouraging the public exchange information and express their views, and in turn forces local governments and their officials tend to disclosure ahead.
