Abstract
The socio-economic welfare of rural communities has long been a concern of the government. Various policies or programs are directed at improving the quality of life, which constitutes the majority of this nation^s population. One of them is the issuance of various state and government regulations at various levels regarding Village-Owned Enterprises (BUM Desa), including in Ogan Komering Ulu Regency. Because the content of the regulation relates to the public interest, it is basically a public policy. Many public policy substances that regulate this do not meet the requirements to be called good policy. This study aims to examine and evaluate various policy substances issued in the form of laws, government regulations, ministerial regulations, and regional regulations governing BUM Desa.
The research uses normative juridical methods, policy evaluation and literature review. The results show that the commitment of the state/government to improve the welfare of rural communities is evident in the form of Law No. 6 of 2014, PP No. 43 of 2014, Permen Desa PDTT No. 4 of 2015, Permendagri No. 39 of 2010, and Perda No. 10 of 2011. There is a structural-hierarchical relationship between the local government as an operational policy maker and the central government as a policy maker on BUM Desa at the national level. A regional regulation on BUM Desa has not yet been established in accordance with the regulations regarding villages and BUM Desa that are currently in effect. There are several policy substances that are considered bad policies, because they are unclear, not operational/incomplete, ambiguous and contradictory. This will have implications for the ineffective implementation of BUM Desa policies by policy implementers at the lowest level of government. As a basis for effective policy implementation, there needs to be a revision of the substance of several regulations regarding the BUM Desa.
