REMDEC just facilitated a Training Workshop on Making Road Map of Village Owned Companies (Badan Usaha Milik Desa, BUMD) held in Bantaeng District, Province of South Sulawesi, 14-23 November 2011. The idea to form BUMD inline with decentralization policy since 1998. According to National Law No.32/2004, village --as autonomous unit-- have authority to manage local economic resources as long as not regulated yet at higher (district, province, and national) levels. For that purpose, every village can issuing a particular Village Regulation (Peraturan Desa, PERDES) and should establish BUMD as their implementing agency. To what extent this idea have and can actually implemented in reality? In the Training Workshop, discussion among participants have rising some important and interesting issues.
