 DKI Jakarta is now a megapolitan area that has complex problems. The existence of regional autonomy has made it difficult to regulate and manage several sources of problems occurring in DKI Jakarta today such as Flooding, Water Resources Quality, Green Open Space, and Waste Management.

There are several models in urban governance such as the formation of coordinating bodies, special bodies, and metropolitan governance. this paper tries to provide recommendations for urban institutional governance in DKI Jakarta along with their implications for finance, functional assignment and government systems.

Abstract
 This study aims to explain the application of institutional approach for adat community empowerment, through a case of Kasepuhan Ciptagelar. It employs qualitative research design, and finds that the implementation of adat community empowerment program did not improve the institutional capacity, especially persons and their structures. As a consequence, there are misunderstandings and conflicts of interest, especially related to forest and land management, between the adat community and the government. To be more effective, the government needs to increase the frequency of open dialogue with Adat institutions and people. The government also needs to consider the Adat values ​​and culture, and support the community initiatives by providing facilities and other supporting factors.

Abstract
 This study aims to analyze the policy of public transportation in Bandung City by highlighting the perspectives of actors and interests in policy implementation. Research method is qualitative, and data are collected from observation, interview and documentary study. It is found that the actors and interests affected from the policy can be classified into three main groups, namely: community as service users; drivers and public transport owners as operators; and local governments and DPRD as regulators. The main interest of the community is the creation of a cheap and convenient public transport system. The interests of the operators mainly include an improvement in tariff system as well as subsidy from the government. The regulators interests mainly include the creation of service standards as well as expectations to solve congestion problems as soon as possible. The main weak point of these interlinkage connections of actors and interests is that the regulator mainly focuses on the development of physical transportation facilities without being balanced with good regulations, especially regarding subsidies and route arrangements. The problem becomes increasingly complicated when there is political interest and maneuvers of local political actors.
