Abstract :

One positive political breakthrough of democratic process in Indonesia is characterized by the development of new instruments of political participation. Internet is a tool utilized by the people to express opinion, to participate in public discourse on certain areas of public policy and to influence the government’s policies. The use of the internet has strengthened the democratic political process in some areas of public life. Government agencies at provincial and local level have set up web-sites as an instrument of consultation and communication with ordinary citizens. Hence, the government has no longer the only actors such as NGOs and the private institutions have also used the internet to respond the government’s policies. While the impacts of the internet on democratic decision making is likely positive, the high expenses og the establishing the network have been a concern for those in the lower classes.
