Abstract

The Minimum Service Standard is a benchmark to measure (assess) the performance of the Local Governments in providing the basic services to the public as the obligatory function of the Local Governments. In addition to this standard, Local Governments in fact have been given autonomy to set up their own benchmark to measure the performance of the additional services, which they deliver to thepublic. The Minimum Service Standards should be dynamic and should be reviewed and updated from time to time according to the change of the regional needs and capacities. The dynamic then is reflected in the improvement of the level of performance of the basic services delivered to the public (the minimum service targets), which will be achieved evegyear by the Local Governments.
