URU, Alm.del - 2015-16 - Bilag 197: Rejserapport fra Verdensbankens feltbesøg i Indonesien den 1. - 4. februar 2016

Urban builds primarily on the World Bank–funded Urban Poverty

Program (UPP1, UPP2/Additional Financing, and UPP3) that began in

1999. In 2008, the World Bank approved the first PNPM–Urban project

and provided subsequent additional financing in 2009. PNPM–Urban III

was approved in 2010, and ends in 2016, but will be continued

although renamed as the Slum Upgrading project.

PNPM–Urban works to ensure that the urban poor benefit from

improved socio–economic and local governance conditions. This is

achieved through:

Forming and institutionalizing elected representative

organizations that are accountable to communities;

Providing grants to communities directly and transparently to

finance poverty alleviation activities, especially infrastructure services;

Enhancing the ability of central and local governments to

partner with community organizations in the provision of services;

Increasing awareness of disaster risk mitigation and

mainstreaming of measures for resilience and recovery.

The total project cost is US$217.4 million, including a US$155 million

loan from the World Bank (including co–financing of US$5 million from

the Global Facility of Disaster Reduction and Recovery), US$36.9

million provided by GoI, and an estimated US$25.5 million from

community contributions. Kelurahan grants are disbursed to wards,

mostly for infrastructure (84 percent). The remainder of the grants

went toward economic activities (6 percent) and social activities (10

percent).The key project performance indicators have been met,

including those for women’s participation. More than 35 percent of the

facilitators are women.

ANNEX I - Background the Parliament of Indonesia

Indonesia Parliamentary System

As in other democratic countries, the Indonesian political system is based on the Trias Politica that

recognizes the separation of the

legislative, executive and judicial powers.

The legislative power

is vested in the People's Consultative Assembly, or Majelis Perwakilan Rakyat

(MPR), which consists of two houses: the Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat (DPR), or House of

Representatives, composed of representatives of political parties, and the Dewan Perwakilan Daerah

(DPD), or Regional Representatives Council - composed of representatives from each province in

Indonesia. Since 2004, the MPR has become a bicameral parliament, with the DPD as its second

chamber. The MPR is currently chaired by Zulkifli Hasan, and is composed of 560 members of the

DPR and 132 members of the DPD. The DPR is chaired by Ade Komarudin, and the DPD is chaired by

Irman Gusman (incumbent).

The executive branch

is centralized on the President, the Vice President, and the Cabinet of

Ministers. The cabinet in Indonesia is a presidential one, in which the Ministers report to the

President and do not represent the political parties in the parliament.

However, the current President, Joko Widodo, who is supported by the Indonesian Democratic Party

of Struggle (PDIP), has also appointed a number of politicians to become members of his cabinet. The

objective is to maintain government stability, mindful of the strong position that the legislative

branch holds in Indonesia. Nonetheless, important and strategic ministerial posts are generally held

by ministers without party portfolios – the so-called ‘technocrats’, experts in their field.

The judicial branch.

Since the reform era and after the amendment of the 1945 Constitution, the

judicial branch is administered by the Supreme Court, the Judicial Commission, and the

Constitutional Court, including the administration of the judges. However, the presence of the

Minister of Justice and Human Rights is retained.

House of Representative (DPR)

The House of Representatives has three fundamental rights and tasks:

1. The right to question the policies of the Executive branch. This is called

interpelasi.

2. The right to conduct an investigation. This is called

angket.

3. The right to deny or approve the budget.

The House also has the right to prepare laws. Every bill is deliberated by the House, together with the

President, for joint approval. The bills may come from the House, the President, or the Regional

Representative Council (DPD).

The parliamentary election took place on April 9, 2014.

2014 Parliamentary results: Main parties

PDI-P, led by Megawati Soekarnoputri,

daughter of Indonesian founding father

Soekarno

Golkar, led by mining and property tycoon

URU, Alm.del - 2015-16 - Bilag 197: Rejserapport fra Verdensbankens feltbesøg i Indonesien den 1. - 4. februar 2016

Provincial elections

Nearly all of Indonesia's 34 provinces have their own parliaments. The only province without a local

legislature is the Special Region of Yogyakarta, which is governed by a hereditary monarchy. The

elections themselves present a formidable logistical challenge, overseen by Indonesia's General

Elections Commission, the KPU. Voting takes place over a single day. The country's far-flung islands

and provinces often face obstacles, such as late deliveries of ballots.

Presidential elections

The legislative elections are key to the July 9 presidential election, because candidates for the

presidency must be nominated by a party, or coalition, that secures at least 20 per cent of

parliamentary seats. But none of the 12 parties contesting the 2014 votes won enough votes to

nominate a presidential candidate alone. The lack of majority forced the major parties to team up

with smaller parties. Though the PDI-P won the most votes in the parliamentary election, it was

forced to team up with NasDem, a youth-orientated party, and the moderate National Awakening

Party, in order to nominate Jakarta Governor Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo.

The Great Indonesia Movement Party (Gerindra party) forged a broader alliance with the United

Development Party (PPP), the National Mandate Party (PAN), the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) and

the Crescent Star Party to nominate Prabowo Subianto. Mr Subianto also received the backing of

current President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's Democratic Party. The President’s term began with

polarization of the House, but tensions have subsided.

ruling party.

Fadli Zon, Deputy Speaker, Gerindra Party.

The former 1998 student activist from University of Indonesia is a

staunch supporter of Prabowo Subianto and one of the founders of the

Gerindra party. Before the election, Zon was known as a critic of Jokowi

and his policies. Zon is vehemently opposed to the reduction of fuel

subsidies, and often criticizes the Bank’s oppositition to subsidies.

Fahri Hamzah is a colorful figure in Indonesian politics. He is in his third

term representing the Justice and Prosperity Party. He is known for his

ANNEX IIII - Background Information on Projects

Project Info: PNPM Urban

Data updated in 2013

PNPM Mandiri is the government's flagship community-driven development program. PNPM focuses

on reducing poverty in all Indonesian provinces through a community planning process that

generates employment and invests in small-scale infrastructure projects that improve the

development of individual villages and urban wards. Since 1998, the World Bank has supported

PNPM and its predecessor programs through a combination of loans and technical assistance. The

National Program for Community Empowerment (PNPM Mandiri) is a national program that is at the

heart of the Government of Indonesia's effort to reduce poverty. It was launched officially in 2007

and scaled up dramatically existing initiatives. PNPM Rural, which began in 1998 as Kecamatan

Development Program (KDP), and PNPM Urban, begun in 1999 as the Urban Poverty Program (UPP),

are the two largest components of the program.

The objective of the program is to improve the economic and social welfare of the poor and expand

their employment opportunities through community consultation, empowerment, and capacity

building at the local level. PNPM Mandiri is now currently active in more than 6,000 sub-districts and

70,000 communities in 33 provinces in Indonesia. PNPM represents to a large extent a "laboratory"

that offers lessons and innovative practices on community planning, capacity building, and targeting

more and marginalized groups. It is also one of the most studied, with over 70 different evaluations

prepared on various aspects of the program

Key elements

Components of these activities are the key elements that must exist within each programs of PNPM

Mandiri:



Community Development

This consists of a series of activities for building critical awareness; mapping community

potential, problems and needs; and carrying out participatory planning, community organizing,

resource mobilization, monitoring, and maintenance of development outcomes.

Community Block Grant

The Community Block Grant (BLM) consists of a fund provided to the community for financing

activities that are intended to improve community welfare, particularly the welfare of the poor.

Strengthening Local Governance and Partnership

This comprises a set of activities for strengthening the capacity of local government and partner/

stakeholder to create a positive, conducive and synergistic environment for the community,

particularly the poor, required to attain a reasonable standard of living. Activities in the

component include seminars, trainings, workshops, field visits, etc.

Technical Assistance for Program Management and Development

This consists of activities for supporting the government and other stakeholders in the

management of project activities, quality control, study and evaluation activities, and program

improvement and development.

PNPM Mandiri activities are chosen from a menu of activities related to poverty reduction proposed

and approved by the community. Examples of activities include:



Basic social and economic infrastructure development and improvement (through labor

intensive methods), such as roads, bridges, water and sanitation facilities.

Provision of capital and financial resources through revolving funds and micro credit for the

poor to develop the local economy.

Special activities related to improve the quality of human resources, mainly aimed to

accelerate MDGs in health and education targets.



Increasing community and local government capacity through training and information

dissemination for business skills development and good governance practices at the local level.

World Bank Support

The World Bank is supporting three programs of PNPM Mandiri:



PNPM Rural

PNPM Urban, and

PNPM Support for the Poor and Disadvantaged Areas (SPADA).

Support has come in the form of significant loans ongoing technical assistance, especially in the areas

of monitoring and evaluation, supervision, pilot programs that test new approaches, financial

management, policy guidance and coordination of donor support. Much of this support comes from

the PNPM Support Facility, a World Bank-administered unit that supports the overall management

and technical implementation of PNPM.

Background on PNPM Urban

PNPM–Urban is designed to promote the development of community organizations (BKM) at the

urban ward (kelurahan) level. The BKM are eligible for up to three block grants ranging from

US$15,000 to US$40,000 per kelurahan to help meet the goals of the community development plan.

PNPM–Urban builds primarily on the World Bank–funded Urban Poverty Program (UPP1,

UPP2/Additional Financing, and UPP3) that began in 1999. In 2008, the World Bank approved the

first PNPM–Urban project and provided subsequent additional financing in 2009. PNPM–Urban III

was approved in 2010, and ends in December 2015.

Project Objective

PNPM–Urban works to ensure that the urban poor benefit from improved socio–economic and local

governance conditions. This is achieved through:

1. Forming and institutionalizing elected representative organizations that are accountable to

communities

2. Providing grants to communities directly and transparently to finance poverty alleviation

activities, especially infrastructure services

3. Enhancing the ability of central and local governments to partner with community

organizations in the provision of services

4. Increasing awareness of disaster risk mitigation and mainstreaming of measures for

resilience and recovery

The total project cost is US$217.4 million, including a US$155 million loan from the World Bank

(including co–financing of US$5 million from the Global Facility of Disaster Reduction and Recovery),

US$36.9 million provided by GoI, and an estimated US$25.5 million from community contributions.

Kelurahan grants are disbursed to wards, mostly for infrastructure (84 percent). The remainder of the

grants went toward economic activities (6 percent) and social activities (10 percent).

In 2010, the UPP and PNPM–Urban program financed construction of approximately 26,000 km of

small roads, 7,100 km of drainage, 170,000 units of solid waste and sanitation facilities and 13,000

community health facilities, and rehabilitated 110,000 houses for the poor. They also financed

175,000 economic activities through revolving funds. The key project performance indicators have

generally been met, including those for women’s participation. More than 35 percent of the

facilitators are women, and about 33 percent of the adult population in the urban wards participated

in the election of the Board of Trustees, of which about 45 percent are women.

PNPM–Urban has also initiated several pilot programs, including the Poverty Alleviation Partnership

Grant (PAPG) and the Neighborhood Development Program to enhance the effectiveness of the

program. Both of these two new initiatives focus on strengthening local government’s role in PNPM.

There were 117 kota/kabupaten participating in PAPG, and 273 kelurahan participated in the

29.1.2016

URU, Alm.del - 2015-16 - Bilag 197: Rejserapport fra Verdensbankens feltbesøg i Indonesien den 1. - 4. februar 2016

Neighborhood Development Program. In 2011, PNPM–Urban covered 10,948 kelurahan in 268

kota/kabupaten across 33 provinces, funded by available loans. In addition to core PNPM–Urban

activities, the program continued its pilot activities. A series of PSF–funded activities examined the

PNPM–Urban approach in the context of urban poverty in Indonesia today, its strengths and

weaknesses, links to other urban poverty programs, and brought in global experiences in urban CDD–

based poverty interventions. Also in 2011, the program managed approximately US$1.4 million of

PSF funds allocated for “cash for work” programs in 38 PNPM–Urban kelurahan as a response to the

Mount Merapi volcanic eruption in Central Java.

Scope: National

2008: 8,813 urban wards in 245 kota/kabupaten

2009: 11,014 urban wards in 267 kota/kabupaten

Jakarta Urgent Flood Mitigation Project/ Jakarta Emergency Dredging

Initiative Project

July 10, 2014

Overview

Flood incidences occur every year in Jakarta, especially during the rainy season months between

November and March. Severity of the floods has increased in recent years, particularly in 2002,

2007, and 2013. The February 2007 floods inundated 235 km2 (about 36%) of the city, by up to

seven meters in some areas, affecting more than 2.6 million people and forcing 340,000 people to

flee their homes. Over 70 people died and outbreaks of disease affected over 200,000 people.

Financial and economic losses were estimated at around US$900 million. In January 2013, flooding

caused 29 deaths and displaced over 37,000 people. Localized inundations occur throughout the

year, under any sustained rainfall conditions.

Challenge

Jakarta’s drainage system comprises 13 major rivers that flow through Jakarta northward to the Java

sea together with a large number of man-made drainage channels. Rampant urbanization

surrounding critical catchment areas has increased rainwater runoff and reduced natural storm

water retention areas. Increased sedimentation and accumulation of solid waste in the drainage

channels have significantly reduced their coping capacities. Land subsidence continues at

increasingly alarming rates, especially in the northern half of the city. Flooding in Jakarta are

expected to become more frequent in coming years.

Approach

The long term and sustained mitigation and management of flooding in Jakarta will require complex

and ambitious undertakings on many fronts. Short term measures are necessary to strengthen the

existing flood management systems. Longer term measures are vital in addressing and adapting to

long term urbanization and climate change impacts. The JUFMP/JEDI project is aimed at supporting

the Government of Indonesia and the Government of DKI Jakarta to address the more immediate

flood management priorities, in particular to help restore key sections of the existing drainage

system to their original design capacities. Fifteen priority sections of floodways, canals and water

retention ponds in Jakarta will be rehabilitated with the support of this project.

Financing

The project is estimated to cost about US$190 million. Of this, the World Bank will contribute about

US$140 million. The Government of Indonesia and DKI Jakarta will contribute about US$15.5 million

and US$34 million respectively. A US$0.5 million grant from the Government of Netherlands will be

utilized to help strengthen Jakarta’s Flood Management Information System.
