Hubungan Kerja Lembaga Kemasyarakatan Dengan Pemerintah Kelurahan Pada Pemerintah Daerah Kota Pekanbaru

Abstract

Community Institution is one of the civil organization under the authority of village level governance, also acknowledged and under supervision of government. Indonesian legislation has given chance to society to form community institution. Act number 23/2014 on Local Government and Act number 6/2014 on Village laid foundation for society to form village level community institution based on their need. In reality, those community institution like Rukun Tetangga (RT), Rukun Warga (RW), Lembaga Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Kelurahan (LPMK), Pemberdayaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga (PKK), Karang Taruna, etc., have been an integral part in helping government’s task, especially the task of head of urban village related to services on governance, development, and civil matters. Civil institution in urban village has shown its benefit and function in government, especially city government. Act number 5/1974 doesn’t mention about RT and RK/RW, but that does not means those institutions don’t have their reason for existence (raison dieter). RT and RK/RK can be formed based on Mayor’s Order as implementation of mayor’s function on Community Administrator. As Community Administrator Mayor can form act on forming and regulating community institution in its area which in turn can help city government fulfill its community’s participation, thus community’s aspiration can be included in government’s action and further enlarge social participation. Even though it is known that some city is regulates and empowers its community institutions, it is advised that other city has to start, so it won’t be too far behind, because community institution’s benefit and function have been proven. Working relation between community institution and urban village is deep.
