CONCLUSIONS • Potentials for Innovative Inclusive Development are available in Indonesia, but unconsolidated. • Inclusivity: a matter of innovative interpretation of public, and public service provisions into policies in Indonesian context. • Three ingredients: (1) strong leadership, (2) well-grounded policy framework; and (3) transforming public administration.
RECOMMENDATION • Move beyond public service provision ! • Do not exaggerate the role of money. • Enhance sense of citizenship within a reasonable administrative and technocratic arrangement. • Encourage leaders to innovate, equip them with broader but manageable policy framework; and then, replicate great initiatives through contextual and horizontal learning.
