JAKARTA - Political observer Politika Research & Consulting, Nurul Fatta, hopes that the government of President Prabowo Subianto does not regard criticism and input from civil society as a threat but an important part of the public policy evaluation process.
"Civil society has basically provided voluntary input to improve the quality of policies made by the government. The report provided by civil society is free, free, without being paid, they want to evaluate government policies," he said, Sunday, March 15.
According to Nurul, the role of civil society, including criticism and input, should be placed as a critical partner in maintaining the quality of governance. Because in a healthy political system, differences of opinion on a policy are normal. There are always parties that accept policies, but not a few who reject them.
Therefore, the rejection of some people should not be seen negatively. In fact, this response can be an evaluation mechanism for the government to assess the effectiveness of the policies being carried out.
"In a healthy political system, there are always parties that accept policies and there are also those who reject them. This rejection should be read as a mechanism for evaluating policies so that the government can adjust policies," he explained.
Nurul emphasized that the evaluation carried out by civil society could be considered by the government to improve the implementation of policies and adjust the design of policies to be more effective and targeted for the community.
