The Influence Of Central Governments Role, People And Companys Participation In Restraining Land And Forest Fires In Indonesia In The Perspective Of Good Governance

This paper is aimed at investigating the forest fire and its correlation with prevention and negotiation strategy based on empirical problems raised by this study. This study used a quantitative approach by adopting survey methodology. The survey was undertaken in areas of Indonesia that have a high level of vulnerability to forest fires. The study population was taken from 105 villages in those six major provinces experiencing forest fires. Sample size precision was determined by using Slovin’s formula with a precision of 10 percent and, thus, a sample size of 52 was obtained. The inferential statistic method utilized in this research is Partial Least Square (PLS). The implementation of public policy (in this case, forest fire management policy) is influenced by government’s role and the participitation (in this case, company), as well as the effect of good governance. Therefore, based on the empirical problems related to theoretical problems and normative problems, this study raises the influence of the role of central and local government on the implementation of forest fire prevention policy in Indonesia, which is moderated by good governance variables. This study finds that the variable of forest fire prevention governance is a pure moderator of the influence of the role of the central and local governments on the implementation of forest fire prevention policies in Indonesia, it will not impact the effectiveness of forest fire prevention, which is reflected in the aspects of prevention and early warning, reward and punishment, the improvement and management of ecosystems by reviewing courts, law enforcement and national and regional synergy.
