2025 Village Government Performance Report: Finalizing the Year with Integrity

The 2025 Village Government Performance Report (LPPD) is a crucial instrument in the village management cycle. Every village administration is mandated to compile this document as a manifestation of transparency and accountability. It is not merely an administrative routine but a mirror reflecting the success of the vision and mission set throughout the fiscal year.

Legal Basis: Permendagri Number 46 of 2016

The preparation of village reports in 2025 continues to rest on the primary legal foundation: Permendagri Number 46 of 2016 concerning the Village Head’s Report. Under this regulation, the Village Head is obligated to submit a written performance report to the Regent/Mayor through the Sub-district Head (Camat) at the end of every fiscal year.

The regulation stipulates that the report must be submitted no later than 3 (three) months after the fiscal year ends. It aims to provide a comprehensive overview of performance achievements, budget efficiency, and the quality of public services provided to the community.

The Urgency of Accountability and Transparency

Reporting is a fundamental mechanism to ensure the accountability of village financial management. In an era of information openness, every resource managed by the village must be legally, administratively, and morally justifiable. This transparency strengthens public trust, which in turn boosts citizen participation in development.

2025 Strategic Priority: 20% Food Security Program

A significant highlight of the 2025 report is the allocation of the Food Security Program at a minimum of 20% of the total budget. This policy responds to global and national food challenges, directing villages to build independence through strategic initiatives:

• Construction and rehabilitation of agricultural irrigation infrastructure.
• Procurement of superior seeds and agricultural machinery (alsintan) for farmer groups.
• Training in modern farming techniques and post-harvest processing.
• Strengthening village food barns to stabilize local stocks.

New Economic Pillars: BUM Desa and Merah Putih Cooperative

2025 serves as a momentum for economic transformation through two primary institutions:

1. BUM Desa Optimization

Village-Owned Enterprises (BUM Desa) are professionally managed to optimize village assets. The 2025 report tracks how BUM Desa generates Original Village Income (PADesa) through tourism management, rental services, and local product distribution.

2. Merah Putih Village/Sub-district Cooperative

The Merah Putih Cooperative acts as an inclusive economic collective. It facilitates capital access for village MSMEs and strengthens the competitiveness of local products, operating on principles of honesty and mutual cooperation.

Accountable Financial Direction

Financial policies in 2025 are designed to support effective development. The budget focus shifts from purely physical infrastructure to human empowerment and extreme poverty eradication. Every Rupiah spent must have a clear output and outcome for the community, ensuring proportional distribution according to urgent local needs.

Performance Evaluation: Successes and Hurdles

While the 2025 reports celebrate improved infrastructure (roads and bridges), they also acknowledge technical challenges. The primary hurdles include the capacity of human resources in managing digital reporting applications and adapting to dynamic regulations. Constructive solutions, such as technical guidance (Bimtek) and intensive coordination with sub-district officials, remain top priorities.

Conclusion and Future Aspirations

Compiling the 2025 LPPD reflects a dedication to governance oriented toward progress. Following Permendagri 46/2016, this document proves that the village is moving toward sustainable independence. We hope this report serves as a baseline for making significant leaps in future village development.
