- Abstract
The purpose of the study was to analyse the level of financial independence and dependency as well as patterns of relations in regencies and cities in East Kalimantan as recipients of transfer funds from the Central Government in 2011-2016 period. The sample was set in 5 regions, from the largest transfer fund recipient to the smallest. This research was a descriptive qualitative research that was by analysing the level of financial independence and regional financial capacity and the pattern of its relationship with the central government. The study result found that the five sample regions had very low average independence ratio because of less than 25% except for Balikpapan City 40.61%. The average of Kukar District was 6.5%, Samarinda was 22.43%, PPU was 10.77% and Bontang was 13.08%. The level of dependence with the Central Government is very high at more than 75%. The majority of regions have a pattern of relations with the Central Government in the form of an instructive relationship pattern except for Balikpapan City which was consultative. The results showed that the essence of regional autonomy has not been as successful as expected.
