Nowadays, good governance is used on a wide scale from the local to the international level. Meanwhile, the local level is of particular importance.

In this perception, decentralization (one of the pillars of the national government) is the most important and main goal of the local government in achieving good governance. The lack of good governance in the country, especially in rural areas, can be the source of many social problems in society.
