Abstract

The Government of Indonesia (GoI), since the monitory crisis in 1997, has been dealing with institutional reforms, aiming at sustainable development and an effective, efficient, and accountable Government. The main objective is to change the Government from “provider” of goods and services to “enabler” the community to mobilize its own capacity for solving problems. In this case is to increase the role of the community in development and operation of irrigation schemes. The second objective is to decentralize the Government decisions and finances to provinces and districts (kabupatens), which enacted in two laws (UU 22 and 25) in 1999. The Capacity Development undertaking is the first phase of three phase’s long-term program under the World Bank’s Adjustable Program Loan (APL) that is going to be separately appraised. Progress to the subsequent phase is conditional on the Borrower having completed the agreed institutional and policy benchmarks for each preceding phase. The first phase lasting about 3.5 years (2005 – 2009), would assist the GoI and the regional governments to develop the capacity development program in twelve provinces and their eligible kabupatens. This paper discuss the performance indicators that were selected and used for monitoring and evaluating the input required, implementation activities, output produced, and development objectives achievements, as stated in the program’s logframe.

River Basins in Sabah

Figure 1 Rivers and Points Annual Rainfall at Sabah (After Sabah Water Resources Master Plan, 1995) The best source of information about river basins in Sabah is from the "Sabah Water Resources Master Plan", which can be seen at http://www.did.sabah.gov.my/ . The river basins are can be grouped as those that discharging the flow to the west coast, north coast, and to the east coast. Some rivers that go to west coast are: Sg. Mayog/Babogon Sg. Papar Sg. Padas Some rivers that go to the north coast are: Sg. Bandau Sg. Bangan/Kinorom Sg. Bengkoko/Pitas Some rivers that go to the east coast are: Sg. Liwagu Sg. Kinabatangan Sg. Tawau Sg. Merotai Besar The Figure 1 shows the points annual rainfalls and rivers in Sabah.

4. Logical Framework for Integrated River Basin Management

4.1 Introduction The logical framework approach (LFA) was first adopted by U.S. AID in the early 1970s. The framework provides a set of designing tools that, when used creatively, can be used for planning, designing, implementing and evaluating projects (the entire project cycle). The purpose of LFA is to undertake participatory, objectives-oriented planning that spans the life of project or policy work to build stakeholder's team commitment and capacity, through a series of workshops. The technique requires stakeholders to come together in a series of workshops to set priorities and plan for implementation and monitoring. This achieved by structuring the main elements of project in a matrix (the logical framework) which summarizes the project, highlighting logical linkages between intended inputs, planned activities and expected results and records the underlying assumption. See Figure 4.1, for the content of framework matrix and how to read the LFA. 4.2 Steps in Logic
