Ø The journalists continue to broadcast/print the psa’s/promos, articles and interactive programs on
PNPM Mandiri so these figures continue to rise.
Ø All PNPM Materials generated from this workshop were also circulated to the OnTrackers – an
alumni of over 700 previous OTMI journalism graduates across Indonesia that are committed to
covering stories that help their communities.
If World Bank had paid for this air time/publication it would have cost more than
US$150,000 (See table below.)
An MOU was signed with each participating broadcast media requiring them to broadcast a news
feature produced during the training and a minimum of 25 promo/psa’s featuring key messages about
PNPM Mandiri and promoting their interactive programs which give the public access to PNPM Mandiri’s
Implementers to ask their own questions. All stations honored the commitment but many went way
beyond the minimum required clearly demonstrating that they had understood the role they can play
in educating and mobilizing their communities. This commitment is illustrated by the results of the
competition which sought to reward the media who helped their communities most to learn about the
poverty alleviation initiative:
1. The winner of the TV station category from the journalism competition for Middle Indonesia was
Beruang TV from Balikpapan who broadcast a total of 10 news features and 32 psa/promos
from 2nd – 16 August 2010 to promote their one hour interactive dialogue program which
focused on the discussion of PNPM Mandiri rural in East Kalimantan. They received such a
good response from their audience that they plan to broadcast more programs like this in the
future.
2. The winner of the TV category for Western Indonesia was Bengkulu TV who broadcast an
interactive dialogue on December 6, 2010 featuring all three guest speakers that they had
been introduced to on the OTMI training. This proved that the relationship between the
implementers and the journalist continued and the implementers had to opportunity to
immediately put into practice what they had learnt. Bengkulu TV also broadcast total of 16
features and and 10 psa/promo to broadcast the interactive dialogue.
3. The Radio category Winner from the Bali workshop was Radio Idola FM Semarang who
broadcast a total of 14 features on PNPM Mandiri projects in seven villages including
4
Tlogomulyo, Penggaron Kidul, Melati Baru and Tlogasari Kulon. Radio Idola also broadcast a
total of 25 promos and a 1 hour of interactive program on 25th August 2010 that focused on
PNPM Mandiri urban in Semarang.
4. Radio Trijaya FM Palembang did a relay broadcast of 4 one-hour interactive dialogue
programs from October to November to 11 radio stations in their network so a total of 44
hours of programming and so were the winners of the radio station category for Middle
Indonesia. They also broadcast and relayed 24 psa’s/features
5. The Winner from the newspaper category for Middle Indonesia was Nuris Iskandar from Borneo
Tribune who wrote a total of 11 newspaper articles from 2 August – 10 October 2010 and still
continues to write more articles on PNPM.
6. The winner of the newspaper category for Western Indonesia was Mohammad Rakhmat a
journalist from Harian Batam Pos who produced 5 features in the period from 17th – 20th
October 2010.
Other media showed great commitment – but not everyone could win! They will receive a
certificate to honor their dedication to their communities.
7. Bali TV broadcast 3 news features, 25 promos and an interactive dialogue with three
speakers from PNPM Mandiri rural in Bali.
8. Radio Sonora Surabaya FM, RRI Pontianak, OZ Radio station in Banda Aceh and Radio
Sonora FM Bangka held an interactive talk show with PNPM Mandiri Implementers who
attended the training as their guest speakers. This proves continued cooperation between
PNPM Mandiri Implementers and the journalists after the training.
9. Dedy Suhaeri wrote a total of eight articles starting from August 3rd-11th November 2010
10. Mohammad Rakhmat wrote a total of 5 features from the period of 15 October – 4 December
2010.
(See below for full details broadcasts and articles)
Evidence that OTMI’s training helped stations understand the importance of their role in raising awareness
about PNPM Mandiri came from the station manager comments which included:
1. Muamar Subki, the program manager of Beruang TV said: “We now have more contacts for
PNPM Mandiri. Before it was very difficult to get in touch with anyone but thanks to this
training a relationship between our Journalist and PNPM Mandiri implementers has been
developed”
5
2. Hayuri Gusaptatur of Bengkulu TV: “We are very, very excited and supportive of this program.
We are keen to inform the public about PNPM Mandiri because our TV station is very
concerned about this issue. We realized that the media plays an important role and needs to
educate the public in Bengkulu about PNPM Mandiri. We are therefore planning to broadcast
and produce more programs and news features, PSA/promos and interactive dialogues using
the materials provided from the training in Medan. My hope is that Ontrack Media and PNPM
Support Facility will continue this program
3. Okti Radio Idola Semarang FM: “Thanks to Ontrack Media and PNPM Support Facility that
chose to work with our station. This program is wonderful because it built the capacity of our
journalist Yessy Safitri and also gave us the opportunity to create a relationship with the
PNPM Mandiri Implementers. We will continue to support Yessy Safitri to cover more stories
on PNPM Mandiri .”
4. Faturahman from Radio Trijaya FM Palembang: “Responses were really good which was
illustrated by the quality of the questions. The audience was really interested in finding out
about the fund management of PNPM Mandiri and the effectiveness of the program carried
out in the community. That is why we are planning to make PNPM Mandiri one of the regular
subjects in our Tuesday Program. We believe media plays an important role acting as a
watchdog of this program”
5. Errol Jonathans from Radio Sonora FM Surabaya: “PNPM Mandiri is a program that needs to
be more socialized. People need to know about this program so they can participate and use
it, but this will not happen without the help of the media. We now understand that PNPM
Mandiri is a program that people need to know about because it can provide a solution
especially for the poor people in Surabaya. We are really grateful to Ontrack Media and
PNPM Support Facility. Hopefully there will be many more programs like this in the future”
SEE FULL COMMENTS BELOW.
Overall Summary
OnTrackMedia Indonesia (OTMI) conducted two workshops side-by-side for PNPM Mandiri Implementers
and Journalists. The reason for holding the workshops together was to create a synergy between these two
powerful groups to empower them to spread information and knowledge about the poverty alleviation program
PNPM Mandiri program and the benefit it offers - to their communities. Some sessions were held individually
to build skills and others were held together to build relationships and understanding of each other's roles.
6
The workshops were attended by a total of 61 PNPM Mandiri implementers and 42 journalists from 21
provinces in Jakarta, West Java, Central Java, Yogyakarta, East Java, Banten, Bali, West Kalimantan, Central
Kalimantan, South Kalimantan, East Kalimantan, Aceh, North Sumatra, West Sumatra, Bangka Belitung, Riau
Island, Riau, Lampung, Jambi, South Sumatra and Bengkulu
PNPM Mandiri Implementers learnt to speak powerfully and efficiently through the media, gaining control
over the way in which they are perceived and giving them the skills to find their public voice and deliver their
key messages to influencer groups and the public. The journalists learnt how to educate and inform their
communities about PNPM Mandiri. The workshop introduced the participants to PNPM’s positioning and
principles, how it works in the community and the importance of having community participation for it to be
effective.
To achieve these objectives OnTrackMedia and
PNPM Mandiri Support Facility conducted a 2 day
Implementer workshop in Bali on 26 & 27 July 2010
for Middle Indonesia and continued with a workshop
in Medan on October 11th & October 12 for Western
Indonesia. The workshop started one day before the
journalism training to prepare the PNPM Mandiri
Implementers to face the journalists on the second day.
The participant of media relations training for PNPM
Mandiri Implementers, Medan 11- 12 Oct 2010
The Media Relations Implementer workshop focused on:
Ø Knowing how the media works
Ø How to shape stories and key messages
Ø Interviewing tips and tricks
Ø Preparation of PNPM Mandiri implementers for the joint session with the journalists on identifying key
messages about PNPM Mandiri. For the workshop in Bali the joint session between PNPM Mandiri
Implementers and the journalists resulted in two press conferences and for Medan the joint session
resulted in a forum group discussion creating a list of topics about PNPM Mandiri in each province that are
news worthy for the journalists.

Ø Conducting a pre and post test to gauge the participant’s knowledge of Media Relations before and after
the training.
OnTrackMedia also conducted a 3-day Journalism workshop in Bali on 27th, 28th and 30th of July in
Bali for Middle Indonesia and another workshop in Medan on 12th, 13th and 14th October 2010 for
Western Indonesia. The second day (overlapped with the implementer training). The workshop focused on:
Ø An ice breaker to get both groups
working together
Ø Understanding the power of the media
Ø The Media’s role in helping to raise
public awareness about the PNPM
Mandiri and acting as watch-dogs
The participant of journalism training to cover PNPM Mandiri

Ø Joint Sessions with the PNPM Mandiri Implementers in finding stories and news angles about PNPM
Mandiri projects.
Ø Interviewing techniques.
Ø Ways to interact with the community on issues they need to know about
Ø Assisting and escorting the journalists during their field visit activity
Ø Supervising and assisting with the writing of the articles and items for broadcast
Ø Conducting a pre and post test to see if the participants knowledge on PNPM Mandiri had grown as a
result of the training
The
introductory
session
encouraged
the
participants to log the potential audience reach of their
media outlets. Through this exercise they realized that
between the total of 42 participants from two workshops,
they reached more than six million and a half million
people. This exercise also focused the participants’
attention on how powerful the journalists' job is in
influencing and educating the public and therefore the
8
responsibility the job brings in providing people with what they want and need. Particularly with PNPM
Mandiri – the journalists can help people understand what help is available to them, how they can access it
and how they can be a part of the decision making and implementation processes. The workshop helped
inspire local journalists to play their part in explaining PNPM and encouraging communities to share ideas and
knowledge of PNPM to make it work for them.
The workshops were also designed to improve the capacities and skills of the participants. Following
theory sessions, the trainers became co-Producers and helped the participants produce their first items for
broadcast/publication – a news item for TV and radio and a feature article for newspapers. This ensured
the quality of the pieces and gave them hands-on experience of the creative process so empowering them to
adopt similar standards when producing articles/productions in the future.
Perhaps more important than the immediate coverage gained by this media training initiative, is the
long-term skills and knowledge gained by the participants to continually cover PNPM Mandiri stories
creatively and regularly; to promote community involvement and commitment; to act a watch dogs to
ensure the projects are implemented without corruption or personal gain and to play their vital part in
educating and informing the public about issues they want and need to know about as well as the part
communities must play in ensuring their PNPM Mandiri project is a success.
As the objective of the training was to raise public awareness about PNPM Mandiri, OTMI signed an
MoU with participating media committing them to print/ broadcast the items produced. In the case of television
and radio, this MoU required the broadcast the news features produced in the training room, 25 times with adlibs repeating key messages and promoting an interactive phone-in programme giving the
public access to PNPM Mandiri Implementers to ask questions of their own. The newspaper MoU
required them to publish a minimum of two articles on PNPM stories after the training. This system had been
used on previous OTMI courses such as Local Journalism Training to cover PNPM Mandiri for Eastern
Indonesia in January 2010 which resulted in US $48,230 worth of media coverage. Overall similar OTMI
journalism workshops have resulted in almost $4 million dollars worth of free public awareness output in less
than 3 years.
The workshop also promoted a competition encouraging the participants to show their commitment to
their communities by publishing/broadcasting items over after the training to raise awareness of PNPM Mandiri
initiatives in their own areas. This competition rewarded those who worked the hardest to provide
9
coverage but also generated much more coverage than the workshop itself. The competition encouraged
participants to continue implementing the training they had received both in higher standards of journalism and
in assisting their public to learn about PNPM Mandiri.
b) Table of Free Air Time Generated
The following table shows the airtime provided by the stations as their commitment to assist their
communities. Apart from a production contribution fee of 2.5m rupiah (TV) and 1.5m rupiah (radio), all
airtime was provided free by the stations. An average cost has been used to illustrate the value of the
airtime generated through OTMI's training initiative.
Each media outlet was provided with an “OnTrackMedia Indonesia Award for Services to their
Community Certificate” in recognition of their commitment. The estimate price for 60 second
psa/adlibs for radio and TV stations was based on the average 2010 rate card from local TV and radios
in Middle and Western Indonesia

Course Content
A.1 Media Relations Training in Bali
In Bali The 2-day Implementer workshop was
held on 28th and 29th July 2010 at Hotel Santhi in
Denpasar, Bali for a total of 36 PNPM Mandiri
Implementers. OnTrackMedia Indonesia provided two
trainers – Febrina I Siahaan as the lead trainer and
Achmad Zihni Rifai as the co trainer. Ontrack also
provided one technical director and two training
assistants.
The Media Relations Training
The 36 Implementers were divided into six groups from the start and each had it own flip chart so they
could write the key messages resulting from their discussions during the training. On the first day the trainers
helped the Implementers to identifying what is news, how the media works and why PNPM Mandiri needs the
media and why media needs PNPM Mandiri. The Trainers, with the support from Citra Lestari and Desy
Mutialim from PNPM Mandiri Support Facility, also helped the implementers identify key messages that have
news value and were to be the topic for the press conferences with the journalists on the second day.
On the second day of the training the Implementers had the chance
to meet with the journalists for the first time during an ice breaking session.
Later on with the help of the trainers, the implementers prepared the
materials needed for the press conference. During the two press conference
simulations, the implementers had the chance to face the media and practice
what they had learnt.
DAY ONE
1. Pre-Test – designed to establish a benchmark of knowledge of the participants BEFORE the training.
2. Introductions: Who are we and what are we here for? This included Introductions from the trainers and
PNPM Support Facility, Citra I Lestari and Desy Mutialim as well as the participants themselves.
3. The function of the Media. Why PNPM Mandiri needs the media and vice versa. How the media can
change public opinion. This session was lead by Febrina I Siahaan and also assisted by Achmad Zihni
Rifai as the co trainer.
15
4. How journalists work, identifying the criteria of what is news worthy, media Framing/media Mapping and
also understanding news angles from different media.
5. What is News and how to shape the Key Messages. The trainers helped the participants to identify the
news value and key message in stories about PNPM projects. The participants also learnt about news
values, building relationships with the media and meeting the needs of journalists to help them cover the
stories effectively.
6. Press conference preparation. At the end of the day the six groups were formed into two big groups who
had to choose the best key messages to be presented at the press conference the next day.
DAY TWO
1. Tips and tricks for interviews. The participants learnt how to answer questions and methods of
delivering a key message during an interview. This session was conducted by Febrina I Siahaan and
Gunawan the Technical Assistant, who put the participants in front of a camera for the first time.
2. Key Messages. The two big groups then choose the best two key messages that resulted from the
discussions with trainers and the PNPM Mandiri Team
3. Press Conferences. The trainer assisted the implementers to prepare for the press conference. Two
groups brought up two interesting subjects for the press conferences. One group choose one the most
successful PNPM Mandiri project where the community successfully built a road and raised extra funds
by giving the chance to local people to write a permanent message in the road surface for a donation.
Another group choose to ask the media to help find a former PNPM Mandiri worker who police were
hunting for embezzling PNPM Money. This was a good example of how to engage the media to ensure
funds are not lost through bad practices – but implementers were reminded to stay within deformation
laws of Indonesia by stating that the police have identified the person as being a suspect and not that
he/she is guilty. They must be careful to honor the Indonesian law, which states that a person is innocent
until proven guilty by the courts
4. POST QUIZ. This quiz is designed to ensure that all the participants have learnt the most important
messages about media relations. The quiz assists in monitoring and evaluation to show what the
participants now know.
5. CERTIFICATE, FEEDBACK AND FAREWELLS. The certificates are an important part of the participants
recognizing that they have done a good job. Each participant received a photograph of them receiving
their certificates with their trainers as well as a group photograph to maintain a relationship with their
group.
This encourages them to maintain their relationship with OTMI and their group in the
communication tools such as Facebook and Ontrackers.

A.2 Media Relations Training in Medan
The 2-day Implementer workshop was held on 11th and
12th October 2010 at Hotel Grand Antares in Medan, North
Sumatra for a total of 27 PNPM Mandiri Implementers.
OnTrackMedia Indonesia provided two trainers – Syafiq Basri
Assegaf as the lead trainer and Achmad Zihni Rifai as the co
trainer for the workshop. Ontrack also provide one technical
director and two training assistants.
The 27 Implementers were divided into groups according to 10 province where they come from the start and
on the join session they are joint by journalist from the same province as well. On the first day the trainers
helped the Implementers to identify what is news, how the media works and why PNPM Mandiri needs the
media and why media needs PNPM Mandiri. The Trainers helped the implementers to identify key messages
that have news value and that can be shared on the joint session with the journalist on the second day.
On the first day the implementers also had sessions on Media Strategy, how to define your needs,
purpose and goal, messages, audience, problems, the opportunity to communicate through the media using
news, letters to the editor and by becoming sources. The implementers also prepared themselves for
tomorrow’s Interview session with the journalists.
They learnt how to explain what PNPM Mandiri is; how it works; the role of the public in ensuring the
accountability and transparency of the program. With the help from the trainers they also learnt what questions
the journalists are likely to ask and how to answer them. At the end of the first day the
implementers also had the opportunity to practice live interviews on camera with
feedback from the trainers.
On the second day the Implementers had the chance to meet with the journalists
for the first time during an ice breaking session. The icebreaking session was opened
with a speech from Mrs. Gati Gayatri, Direktur Pusat Informasi Kesejahteraan
Rakyat – Badan Informasi Publik.
17
The ice breaking session is a fun session where
implementers and journalists are divided into 10 groups
according to their province and with their creativity and teamwork they built a tower using random items such as straws,
cards, balloons, ice sticks etc.
The ice breaking session
proved to be an exciting way for the journalists and
implementers to get to know each other in a fun atmosphere.
After the ice breaking the implementers went back to the
classroom and with the help of the trainers, learnt how to write a simple statement and practice making their
own stories and received feedback one-on-one from the trainers. On the second day they also prepared the
materials needed for joint session such as how PNPM Mandiri can be a source of stories, how Implementers
could help and why journalists would cover stories on PNPM Mandiri. The journalists and implementers also
had joint session on deformation to ensure they understood the legal limitations of what they can say through
the media - such a “A person is innocent until proven guilty by the courts”.
After the deformation session the implementers and
journalists worked together in their provinces – identifying PNPM
Mandiri projects in their areas that would make good stories. They
had to identify different angles to the stories, who would need to be
interviewed as well as what pictures and sounds could be used to
make the media output more interesting and informative. The trainers
wrote each story and method of coverage on the flip chart – enabling
all participants to see how many stories can be created from PNPM Mandiri projects and how powerfully they
can be created.
The final joint session between the journalists and implementers ensured that the journalists
interviewed the implementers from their own area so they had gathered sound bites that could be used to
localize the items the journalists would go on to create from their field trips.
Mr. Sujana Royat, Deputi Menkokesra Bidang Penanggulangan
Kemiskinan Selaku Ketua Tim Pelaksana Pokja Pengendali PNPM Mandiri
attended the closing ceremony of the implementer workshop giving a
speech about the importance of PNPM Mandiri. He also assisted the
trainers in presenting the certificates and prizes for the implementers.

well as a translator and a training assistant.
On the first day the journalists had the opportunity to meet with the Implementers during an ice
breaking session. They were split into mixed groups featuring all the implementers and journalists from each
province. Each group had to make the tallest tower from random things such as cards, balloons, straws,
plastic cups etc. This was a fun activity and a good way to show them how to work together.
The second joint session was the press conferences where
Implementers had an opportunity to present their key messages to the media
and practice what they have learnt during the training and the training. The
journalists asked the questions and learnt more about PNPM Mandiri projects
and how they work.
Apart from the joint sessions, the journalists also had theory sessions
on the importance of meeting the needs of their audiences/readers, maintaining loyal audiences by showing
their commitment to their communities, acting as watchdogs and monitors of public projects and their duty as
journalists to be guardians of their communities.
The final session of the day allowed participants to speak directly with their trainers – television, radio
and newspaper – so they could plan their story to be conducted during the following day’s field trip.
On the second day the media went on a field trip to two locations providing examples of PNPM
Mandiri projects in action. The first team went to a PNPM Mandiri rural area in Sukawati, Gianyar where a
market had been built to provide trade and income to help boost the local economy. The second team went to
visit a PNPM Mandiri urban area in Segara Asih, Serangan, where a “keramba budidaya ikan” has been built
to improve the fisherman economical conditions on the Serangan Island.
During the visits the journalists conducted interviews, recorded sound and pictures alongside their
OTMI trainers to gather the materials they needed to produce their pieces for publication/broadcast. With
guidance, they were able to design and produce their pieces.

DAY ONE
1. Ice breaking – designed to introduce the journalist to Implementers in a fun and interactive games.
2. Pre-Test – designed to establish a benchmark of knowledge of the participants BEFORE the training.
3. Introductions: Who are we and what are we here for? This included conducting a mini poll to establish
how many people this group of journalists could reach – over 4.5 million. The session focused on helping
journalists to recognize the power they have and the responsibilities that come with it. The participants
learnt the goals of the workshop and how coverage of stories such as PNPM Mandiri, helps to educate
and inform their readers/audiences about issues that affect their lives and futures.
4. Role of the Media. This session and chapter in the manual assists the media in understanding that public
awareness cannot be achieved by a single article or broadcast. The public needs to be REPEATEDLY
reminded of messages if they are to ABSORB the information and TAKE THE ACTION required. The
media has a vital role to play in teaching the public what they want and need to know. Apart from news
coverage, newspapers and broadcasters have other methods of communicating this crucial information.
a)News
b)Features and documentaries
c) Public service announcements (psa’s)
d)Interactive programmes and articles
e)Press Conference
5. What is PNPM? This session was conducted by the Citra Lestari of PNPM Support Facility who gave a
general understanding of PNPM, how it works and what its advantages are.
6. The Imporntance of media participation. The training was also attended by Mrs. Gati Gayatri, The chief
of Information for The People Welfare Ministry, who is the coordinator of communication of PNPM Mandiri.
Mrs. Gati stressed the importance of media participation in making sure the PNPM Mandiri program is
accountable and transparent.
7. What is News? The trainers helped the participants to identify the news value in stories about PNPM
projects.
8. Interviewing Techniques. The participants were shown how to research, plan and conduct interviews so
they are as effective as possible. The manual goes into detail about types of interviews as well as the
“do’s and dont’s” and “tips and tricks” to get the best from interviewees. In the training session a special
video was shown which incorporates all these key points in a humorous way.
a) In-Depth Research and story preparations. OTMI Trainers helped the journalists to identify
20
background data and basic information about PNPM; where should they go to look for that
information; to identify the stakeholders related to PNPM project and how to treat to the information
gathered from them. This session included a detailed breakdown of the PNPM website and how it
could be used by journalists to localize their stories which were conducted by Citra Lestari of PNPM
Support Facility as an expert in how the website can assist journalists.
b) How to order information in a new story. This session equipped journalists to use the inverted
pyramid style of ordering information by prioritizing information from the most vital down to basic
information.
c) Vox Pops. Participants learnt the importance of including the voice of the people in programmes.
The public like to hear the opinions of ordinary people, not just the experts. Vox pops help reflect the
hopes and concerns of the public and are a crucial element in the news.
d) Joint session with the Implementers: 2 Press conferences were staged to give the opportunity for
the journalist to interact with the implementers and ask questions regarding the subjects.
e) Wish List. This session briefed the journalists on their assignment for the following day and focused
their attention on establishing what they needed to get on their field trip to make exciting TV, radio and
newspaper pieces. After a general session on establishing a “Wish List” of what they could gather –
human examples, vox pops, officials, experts etc. the participants were split into 3 groups –
newspaper, TV and radio – so they could have detailed discussions with their specific trainers.
f) How to develop in-depth stories using human examples: Journalists learnt how human examples
are a good way to start a story and to humanize it. Through human examples, journalists attract the
sympathy and understanding of the readers/audience as they will look at the story from their own
perspective rather than a piece that is loaded with data and statistics.
DAY TWO
v Field Visit – The participants and trainers were
divided into two teams.
The first team included the 3 TV journalists and six of the
newspaper journalists who went to PNPM Mandiri rural project
in Pasar Sukawati, Gianyar. They were assisted by the TV
trainer Imelda Salajan and Febrina I Siahaan the newspaper
trainer, Gunawan as Technical Trainer/cameraman, Citra I
Lestari from PNPM Support Facility.
As TV is the most complicated of the 3 media (requiring filmed interviews and pictures to illustrate
21
script) it was important to use the OTMI expert cameraman as a joint resource as the budget could not
allow for 3 cameramen and producers. As the 3 TV stations were from different coverage areas –
Balikpapan, Bali and Jogja it was possible to use the same footage and interviews to illustrate the stories
as their pieces would not be seen by rival stations. The participants were given the chance to practice their
skills by leading different interviews – but the final pieces were scripted and edited according to the needs
of their own audiences. The newspaper journalists were guided by Febrina I Siahaan the newspaper
trainer to fulfill their “Wish List” and had time to conduct personal interviews with the sources. The story
was about a market that was built with PNPM Mandiri funds. Some stalls were bought very cheaply by
poor people from the area for a 25 year period. Other stalls were hired on a yearly contract by outside
traders at a much hirer rate. These rentals ensured the maintenance and management of the market
would make the market self-sustaining.
The second team comprised of 6 radio and 6 newspaper journalists who went to Serangan Island to
cover the PNPM Mandiri stories for rural area. The visit was assisted by Desy Mutialim from PNPM
Mandiri, Ronny Hengst the OTMI Radio Trainer and Ahmad Zihni Rifai the OTMI Newspaper Trainer. In
the designated area, all participants were given the chance to do in-depth interviews and practice what
they’d learnt in the first day of the course. A local Bali TV cameraman was also sent with this team to
document the training. The journalists covered a success story about the fishermen in BKM Segara Asih,
Serangan Island who build “Keramba budidaya ikan” with PNPM Money. The project also empower
women in the village to create stalls selling grilled fish around Pura Sakenan. This project has improved
the life of people in BKM Segara Asih.
OTMI would like to especially mention Mr. Sentot Surya Satria (The Task Team Leader PNPM
Communication), Citra Lestari, Desy Mutialim, Iroh Rohayati Fatah and Ikhwan Maulana and all other
PNPM Team for all their support and help particularly in organizing the field trips. These were an
invaluable part of the training and provided great insight into the PNPM Mandiri project. Their knowledge
22
and assistance contributed greatly to the success of the workshop.
The field trip was also enhanced by the enthusiasm of the PNPM Mandiri staff themselves who went
to great lengths to make us all feel welcome and provide us with the interviewees and pictures needed.
DAY THREE
ü
Articles and Productions: On Day 3 OTMI staff were no longer trainers – but Co-Producers and
Editors. They were there to assist the participants to write their articles and make their pieces. Each
journalist wrote their own article/script asking for advice and help when needed. The item was then taken
to their trainer, who helped re-write and develop the article/script until it was made into a quality item. The
TV and Radio trainers assisted the participants to record and edit their pieces creatively while the
newspaper trainers compiled the articles with photographs into an OnTrackMedia mini newspaper on
PNPM Mandiri.
This detailed hands-on practical experience is an OTMI specialty and is the most valuable in putting
all the theory into practice. Having worked with the participants from the beginning to the end of their
pieces, the OTMI trainers gave the journalists new ideas on ways to make their pieces exciting,
informative and educational. Using many of the BBC styles of broadcasting, participants learnt about
writing to pictures and using sound effectively to grab the audiences’ attention. All participants learnt how
human examples take the story to the heart of the matter and make it relevant to their audiences. The
newspaper journalists recognized how to order their material in a way that made their articles grab their
readers attention with the first line and hold their attention as they revealed the most important information
at the beginning through to the details below.
From participant comments – OTMI's training was a major insight into their role both as providing their
readers/audiences with information that they wanted and needed to know as well as creative ways of
making that information easy to understand and interesting to read/listen to or watch.
ü
Show Time: This was the chance for all participants to view each
other's work. The session was presented in an exciting way to give
everyone a pat on the back for their hard work – but more importantly for
them to see the different ways that PNPM Mandiri stories can be
presented. It also illustrated how to localize a story to make it relevant to
the audience. For example, although the TV pieces had to use many of
the same shots and interviews – the two TV participants from outside Bali chose to angle their stories on
23
the PNPM Mandiri budgets allocated to their respective areas in Kalimantan and Yogyakarta for 2010.
The TV pieces were humanized, relevant and powerful pieces of television illustrating how PNPM Mandiri
could be utilized effectively if the community plays its part.
ü
POST QUIZ. The quiz was designed to ensure that all the participants had learnt the most
important messages about PNPM Mandiri. Although fun – it tests the participant about the information
they should know about PNPM Mandiri. The quiz also assists in monitoring and evaluation .
ü
CERTIFICATE, FEEDBACK AND FAREWELLS.
The certificates are an important part of the participants
recognizing that they have done a good job as well as
providing them with something to put on their office wall to
remind them that they should continue doing PNPM Mandiri
stories. Each participant can download their photographs
from the Facebook Club of themselves receiving their
certificates with their trainers as well as a group photograph to maintain a relationship with their group.
OTMI encourages them to stay in touch through tools such as Facebook Wartawan Peduli PNPM Mandiri
group and Ontrackers Mailing list.
ü
OTMI also encourages them to continue following OTMI activities to learn about other subjects that
will assist their communities such as bird flu and environmental issues. This OTMI alumni is assisting
PNPM Mandiri because it means all 700 plus OTMI's previous participants will also receive and be
encouraged to cover stories about PNPM Mandiri as well as the subjects they learnt about through OTMI.
B.1 Journalism Training in Medan
The journalism training workshop in Medan was held for
3 days on 12th, 13th & 14th October 2010 at Hotel Grand
Antares Medan, Jl. Sisingamangaraja No.273, Medan with a
total of 20 participants. OnTrackMedia Indonesia provided four
trainers – one International and 3 Indonesian – providing
expertise in newspaper, radio, television and technical as well as
a translator one training assistant.
24
On the first day the journalists had the opportunity to meet with the Implementers during an ice
breaking session. They were split into 10 groups featuring all the implementers and journalists from each
province. Each group had to make the tallest tower from random things such as cards, balloons, straws,
plastic cups etc. This was a fun activity and a good way to show them how to work together.
After ice breaking, the journalist went into their classroom and started a session on the role of the
media as educators and watch dogs. They also learnt why PNPM Mandiri is important for their communities
so why they should cover the story.
Citra, I Lestari from PNPM Support Facility presented a session on what PNPM Mandiri is; how it
works; What people can do for themselves and finding PNPM stories including through the PNPM website.
The journalists also had a session on interviewing techniques and using Vox Pops to include the voice
of the people in reports. They also learnt interviewing techniques including watching the training film “Harta
Karun” .
The journalists then joined the Implementers for the Deformation session lead by Achmad Zihni Rifai
This illustrated the legal restrictions placed on journalists such as Libel.
The second joint session was when the journalists and
implementers from the same province grouped together and had
an opportunity to sit and work together to identify stories in their
own areas about PNPM Mandiri. The implementers shared a list
of PNPM Mandiri projects in their areas with the journalists so
they could identify a story, the news angles they could use, the
sources they could interview, the photographs & TV pictures they
would need and sounds for radio journalist. The trainers gave
feedback to ensure a list of quality stories and methods of coverage were discussed with both groups helping
them recognize how many stories are available to help them keep the stories in the media and so educate
their communities about PNPM Mandiri.
The last joint session was when the journalists interviewed the implementers from their own areas so
they had a sound bites to localize their stories. The journalists then discussed the field trips they were to go on
the next day so they could draw up a wish list of the essential ingredients they would need in preparation for
the media visit.
25
Before the field visit on the second day the journalist
also had the chance to interview Mr. Sujana Royat, Deputi
Menkokesra Bidang Penanggulangan Kemiskinan Selaku
Ketua Tim Pelaksana Pokja Pengendali PNPM Mandiri. Mr.
Sujana Royat stressed the role of the media as educators
and watch dogs of their communities so they can learn about
the importance of the PNPM Mandiri programs in their areas.
The journalist were
also given an opportunity to ask
questions to Mr. Sujana Royat after his presentation and also had the opportunity to interviewed him after his
speech.
After a briefing session the media went on a field trip to
two locations providing examples of PNPM Mandiri projects in
action. The first team went to a PNPM Mandiri rural area in
Karang Berombak, Medan where a public washing and toilet
facility was built on land owned by a 70 year old women who
donated it to the community. The journalists also saw a bridge
which was built built to connect the community with the local
school. The bridge was built with PNPM Mandiri money but using labour given by the people themselves.
The community chose the project to make it easier for children to get to school and to make it safe – after a
young girl nearly drowned about falling through the old bridge. The journalists also visited a cricket farm built
with the assistance of a micro finance loan from PNPM Mandiri. The old man managed to expand his
business from 5 boxes of crickets to 50 boxes – generating enough income to support his family and pay back
his loan
The second team went to visit a PNPM Mandiri urban area
in Pantai Cermin, Kabupaten Sedang Bedagai, South Sumatra
where several micro finance projects had been to support small
businesses. There was also a community clean water project to
improve the health and facilities of the community.
During the visits the journalists conducted interviews,
recorded sound and pictures alongside their OTMI trainers to
gather the materials they needed to produce their pieces for publication/broadcast. With guidance, they were
able to design and produce their pieces.

b) Mentoring
After the training ended, OTMI carried out the post training process which included follow up with the
participants by phone, emails, mailing list and Facebook. Zihni Rifai, the OTMI newspaper trainer, who also
has extensive broadcast experience – particularly as an News Editor - provided assistance, advice and
guidance. He regularly sent emails to the participants, replying to their questions. He gave comments
encouraging journalist to write more about PNPM Mandiri in their their own areas. Zihni is a well known and
experienced journalist so his expertise proved to be very useful in helping the journalists to continue their
commitment to their communities. Welda also maintained a relationship with the participants reminding them
of the prizes for the competition and encouraging them to continue coverage. After the journalism training in
Bali and Medan, Zihni Rifai has wrote total of seven letter from the period of September 5 – December 3,
2010. He encouraged and also give story ideas to cover on PNPM Mandiri to the journalist and most
important to find interesting angles for each story. His letters covers subject varied from: What PNPM Mandiri
story?, Exposing story of the misuse of PNPM Mandiri funds, CSR in PNPM Mandiri and US$30 Million Multi
Donor Fund for the program of alleviation of poverty due to disaster in Merapi, Mentawai and Wasior.
(Please See Annex 5 for the emails send out to all of the participants)
c) Facebook Wartawan Peduli PNPM Mandiri
OTMI established a Facebook fan Page “Wartawan Peduli PNPM Mandiri” where all the participants
can communicate with each other, send links to their news articles, write stories, discuss ideas and information
about PNPM Mandiri in their provinces. So far there are 163 members of the Facebook Wartawan Peduli
PNPM Mandiri and we believe this number will keep increasing. OTMI also created a note of the emails sent
out to the participants, so other journalists received this valuable information and tips on journalism.
e) Competition
OTMI devised a competition for the participants to encourage them to put into practice the skills they have
learnt and ensure that they covered stories to help educate the public about PNPM Mandiri. For the journalists
this means getting as many hours of broadcast or column centimeters printed of quality PNPM Mandiri issues.

We are very very excited and supportive of this program.
We want to inform the public about PNPM Mandiri because
our TV station is very concerned about this issue. We
realized that the media plays an important role and needs
to socialize information to the public in Bengkulu about
PNPM Mandiri. We are therefore planning to broadcast and
produce more programs and news features, psa/promo and
interactive dialogue using the materials provided from the
training in Medan. My hope that Ontrack Media and PNPM
Support Facility will continue this program
Responses were really good, proven by the quality of the
questions. The audience was really interested in finding out
about the fund management of PNPM Mandiri and the
effectiveness of the program carried out in the community.

understand what PNPM Mandiri is all about so this program
was very useful to create awareness about PNPM Mandiri
in the community.

You know as a local media we are now well-informed about
PNPM Mandiri and committed to always bring our public
the latest information so we can help empower the public.
Now, we broadcast more features on PNPM villages
because it interests our audience and people tuned in
especially to listen to it.
We gained a lot especially through the relationship with the
PNPM Mandiri implementers. We are so happy because
we have a lot of contacts on PNPM Mandiri. They contact
us often and we share a lot of information. All of this thanks
to Ontrack and PNPM Mandiri Support Facility
As a local public station, we have to always broadcast and
inform according to the public’s interest and needs and
PNPM Mandiri is definitely such a topic.
We now have more information about PNPM Mandiri which
we can transfer to the public. The PNPM Mandiri
Implementers were really looking forward to the
cooperation which we offered and were grateful.
We are happy to be able to give to the public the
information about PNPM Mandiri and the program carried
out specially in Bangka
Clearly our station gained from this cooperation because
PNPM Mandiri is an issue that interests many listeners
especially in Jambi
We gained great benefit from this program especially how
this training helped to build the capacity or our journalist. I
hope many more of our journalists will have the chance to
attend programs like this.

ANNEX 5
Letters to Participants
Letter one from Zihni = OTMI trainer encouraging more coverage:
1. Subject: What Story?
Date: September 5, 2010
What would be an interesting story to cover about PNPM Mandiri? This may be a question that comes
into your mind a lot. The first thing you should do is not give up. Perhaps what you need to do is a little
research before you decide what angle you want to use.
We are often faced with the reality that not all stories/events are “big” - meaning that the event has big
impact and influences a lot of people. There are events that are not “recent”. A lot of stories that we came
across are considered “usual” and “not new”. All of these things make us feel confused where do we want to
start our story.
A story or an event could be something “usual” and may even have been published before by your
media or other media. You need to remember that a story or an event from time to time can be looked at from
different angles. For an example, a story about a project of clean water that runs through three villages in the
sub district of Golewa, Kabupaten Ngada, Nusa Tenggara Timur. This story might have been published
before by a local media but why did a big national newspaper like KOMPAS cover the story again even putting
it on the front page – even though it was a year old?
I believe that KOMPAS made a smart decision - by covering the story again from the sociological
angle where the project in the PNPM Mandiri scheme turned out to bring conflict resolution between the
villagers. (KOMPAS, 31 Agustus 2010, That Water Pipe Helps Create Peace)
So we can see here that what we call “news worthy” is not solely reliant on a story or an event that
creates “a commotion” or has something that “creates a serious threat to the life of people”, “a lot of money”, “a
human right violation”, “emergency situation”, “public figures” etc. We can also look from the angle of how a
story is represented as interesting as can be. News will not drop from the sky but it’s the journalist's job to
make a story important and interesting.
Now, what kind of story are you working on right now? In your opinion, what is the best way to cover
that story? I hope this will be our next topic. Please give me your comments, opinions or suggestions that I am
sure will be very useful and interesting to discuss with. I’ll be waiting for your response. Good luck and keep on
writing.

2. Subject : Exposing Story on the misuse of PNPM Money, Date: October 10, 2010
Imagine a lot of money has been misused - up to billions of rupiah, surely its not “appropriate” for a
small village project like projects on PNPM Mandiri rural. But we all know that the little amount of BLM money
through PNPM Mandiri is vital to the success of a project to alleviate poverty. I think there are many
interesting angles that we could cover from the cases of misuse of funds of PNPM Mandiri.
For example the story of a villager that lost hope after their PNPM Mandiri money that they had been
waiting for so long, is stolen by the villagers who ran the program. You could also cover a story about the
villagers who struggled to have their proposal approved and suddenly the money has gone.
If we dig deep into a story, we can find elements of human interest in them. Just for example, the
exposure of the embezzlement of money from a PNPM Mandiri project in sub district Mapitara Kabupaten
Sikka, NTT. Here there was a story about how the villagers formed their own investigation team and finally the
fund was returned by the perpetrators.
Another story was about the efforts of a villager together with a consultant and PNPM Mandiri
implementer in the sub district of Bontoa, District Maros, South Sulawesi who solved a case embezzlement by
using pressure from the media. This kind of story is really interesting to cover.
Stories behind the event surrounding the struggle of the villagers mentioned above are not only
interesting but also inspiring. The following are the modus operandi that keep becoming the misuses of PNPM
Mandiri fund. It’s not impossible that in the field few cases provide elements of stories that are interesting to
write. Our job is to oversee, to search and to present a story well.
The Most Common Misuses of PNPM Rural funds.
1.The theft of micro funds by the administrator of UPK/Ketua Kelompok SPP where they form a fictitious group
to get funds
2. Marking up the price and volume of the equipment and tools for the infrastructure and construction.
3. The existence of a false tender to benefit certain party
4. Unnecessary requests for equipment for the construction
5. Payment without any certification on the material or the work
6. The money is collected from the villagers and used for personal gain
7. The Facilitator takes payment from UPK/TPK for the liquidity of fund and report writing.
8. Infrastructure is built at a lower quality and less volume than it should
9. The recruitment of the facilitators is not transparent and the indication of money politics in the recruitment
process.
10. The theft of BLM/DOK/SPP funds by forging the signature on the withdrawal slip, creating false receipts
and double bookkeeping.
73
11. The PNPM resources (money, information board, villagers meetings, facilitator etc) are used for the
interests of politics.
12. The PNPM activities are dominated by certain groups in the village or sub district, so the community does
not receive the maximum benefit.

3. Subject : Village Meeting for a Project as a story idea, Date: November 2,2010
We have heard, all too often, about the village planning meetings through “Desa Musrenbag, Musrenbang
Kecamatan, when the mechanism of this participative planning is really only a formality. If this community
meeting is carried out according to the system, villages in Indonesia would be in a much more advance but we
still have villages that have only recently received electricity, clean water or road access to transportation.
Perhaps now, there will be controlled and goal oriented opportunities through PNPM Mandiri rural which
help communities come up with their own ideas for the village. The community will be asked to think and to
define what kind of village they want in the future, what institutions should be created, what monitoring and
evaluation mechanisms are suitable for themselves and their culture. The output of this program is to draw up
of a blue print of “Rencana Pembangunan Jangka Menengah Desa (RP JMDes) as the only document of
strategic planning that is binding and legal. Because RPJMDes stated with village rule, so it will binds all the
policy makers in that village. In other words, all the development programs carried out in that village must
aligned with the RPJMDes
There are many interesting angle and human interests that you can cover as a story starting from the
process of how the community finds out and determines the plan of the village development. Maybe the
villagers feel happy and useful, because this is the first time that they participated in formulating the
development plan. One thing for sure, they learn how to talk together and learn the process of democracy.
They have the opportunity to listen to each other's opinion and respect each other's opinion. This program
hopefully could provide a lot of angles to be cover in interactive dialogue in a radio. Maybe you can invite the
the representative of the community as one of the sources of the talk show.
On the training in Medan, the implementer from Lampung said that the villages in Lampung were in the
process of coming up with a village development blue print. Maybe if you are a journalist from that area you
could follow up the story and find out what is happening now. What I know for sure, in district Kebumen,
almost all villages in 2010 were creating their village development plans (RPJMDes) (http://www.pnpmperdesaan.or.id/?page=internews&id=250). How about the villages in your area?

4. Subject : CSR in PNPM Mandiri Date: November 5, 2010
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and PNPM Mandiri could be a good story idea, why not? The vice
president Boediono at the end of September asked the businessman in Indonesia to invest the CSR money for
poverty alleviation programs in PNPM Mandiri. According to the vice president the PNPM Mandiri program
has been proved to bring good results.
“We hope that companies can adopt certain villages and become their PNPM Mandiri project. This means
that the companies will be recognized as the owner of the project. I know that this has value and I don’t think
relying only on government programs will be enough” said vice president Boediono in the opening of
conference on CSR that took place in Indonesia Business Links in Balai Kartini, Jakarta in the end of
September.”
Private investment in PNPM Mandiri could be one of the models of cooperation between Public and
Private Partnership (PPP) where mechanism are still in the process of finalization by the government. One the
key successes of PNPM Mandiri is that every project is the result of community meetings not decisions from
policy makers. The vice president admits that he has seen the success of this program in certain areas, such
as the program of clean water in Manado that cost PNPM Mandiri money for 300.000.000 rupiah.
“The money was allocated to make a sewer system, micro finance for women, these are suggestions from
the community. This is the advantage of PNPM Mandiri, says the vice president.
The existence of guidance teams is urgently needed especially in villages that have not been developed to
give technical assistance, administrative support, monitoring and evaluation process which are the key
success of PNPM Mandiri program.
The idea on Public-Private Partnership (PPP), I think will be a very interesting story to cover. In your
province surely there are private companies that have the obligation to do CSR programs. Maybe you can
interview the management of those companies about the ideas of this partnership. How far do you think that
they will incorporate their CSR programs into PNPM Mandiri programs? What are the difficulties in carrying out
such programs for companies?
What do the PNPM Mandiri facilitators think about these ideas? What does the local government think
about this? How can they take part in the investment of CSR money into PNPM Mandiri programs in their
areas? Etc.
You can also give professional vision about the poverty alleviation program that are crucial to the
communities in your area. You can also cover this subject by quoting from the comment given by the
community figures, or even related NGO. ou can also ask the community about what poverty alleviation
program that they would like to see being carried out by companies in their community.
Best of luck to you!

5. Subject: What Next after PNPM Mandiri, Date: November 16, 2010
PNPM Mandiri will end in 2015. Why government stop the program in 2015? The assumption is
Indonesian’s welfare will be much better and independent. Indonesian average income estimated to reach
US$ 3,000 per capita per year.
Does this mean pro-poor program won’t be needed anymore? Sujana Royat - Deputi Menkokesra Bidang
Penanggulangan Kemiskinan yang juga Ketua Pokja Pengendalian PNPM Mandiri, said that the government
will still continue poverty reduction programs, but probably under different name – no longer called PNPM
Mandiri.
Up until now, no body has said what the next program would be like in the future. However, the situation
needs to be anticipated by local governments in district and sub district level. Because their communities,
which are the target/the subject of these poverty reduction programs already know/aware with PNPM Mandiri,
it is not going to be easy to introduce another new program to the community.
It’s never too early to talk about this issue, since there are still 18.5 million families live below the poverty
line. Five years is not a long time – this is why it’s important to know local governments’ vision about the
program in the future. Have the local governments had a deep thought about the program which will be
suitable for their people or any actions to maintenance the result of PNPM Program. How big is the chance for
the area to conduct the development programs based on community empowerment? How ready is the area to
conduct the program with their own budget? What local representatives have to say about the poverty
reduction programs? Etc.
It’s interesting to listen to the facilitators’ opinions, since they are the one who work directly with the
communities. They understand what’s going on the field. What they think will happen once PNPM Mandiri is
over? What kind of program would be suitable to replace PNPM Mandiri? What the communities’ said about
the program?
It’s also important to listen to those who criticize PNPM Mandiri. Some NGO’s criticize the big amount of
money allocated for the program yet still not show significant result in reducing the number of poor people.
What they think would be more suitable to improve the welfare of the population? What local government
should prepare in the next five years? Etc.
6. Subject: US$30 Million Multi Donor Fund for the program of alleviation of poverty due to disaster in
Merapi, Mentawai and Wasior, Date: December 1, 2010
Jakarta, December 1, 2010 – Australian Government (AusAID), Dutch Government, Denmark Government
(Danida), British Government (DFID), American Government (USAID) and European Union agreed to grant
US$30 million to Indonesian Government.
This fund will be used for the program of alleviation of poverty due to disaster in Merapi, Mentawai and
Wasior. The fund will be managed by Fasilitas Pendukung PNPM Mandiri (PSF) and distributed through
PNPM Mandiri.
Direktorat Jenderal Pemberdayaan Masyarakat dan Desa (PMD) Kementrian Dalam Negeri and Direktorat
76
Jenderal Penataan Bangunan dan Lingkungan, Kementerian PU will be responsible as implementing agency
under coordination of Kementrian Koordinator Kesejahteraan Rakyat which act as Pokja Pengendali PNPM
Mandiri.
The fund will be given directly to families through Direct Aid Program (Bantuan Langsung Masyarakat).
These families could start their own business under PNPM supervision. Those funds will also be used to
conduct skills training, give facilitations, guidance/management and program evaluation.
The multi donor fund will be sent from PSF to Finance Ministry to be transferred to collective account in
sub district level.
Since disaster management programs conducted in Aceh/Nias, PNPM Mandiri already had an operational
system to support the programs. The operational standards and procedures were made to sufficient special
needs occurred in emergency situations. The procedures have been a success in Aceh, Nias, Papua, NTT,
West Sumatera and West Java. In Aceh and Nias, PNPM have reached 3.000 villages (92% of disaster area)
in two years after tsunami occurred. PNPM Mandiri also built 30.000 houses through community based
reconstruction methods.
In disaster management program, PNPM will work together with Badan Nasional Penanggulangan
Bencana (BNPB) and Pokja Pengendali PNPM Mandiri / Tim Nasional Percepatan Pengurangan
Kemiskinan (TNP2K) to make sure the fund used in integrated way and reach bigger goals.
7. Subject: Keep Watching PNPM Mandiri, Date: December 3, 2010
Three years is considered to be a short time to see how effective PNPM Mandiri have works nationally,
especially to see the programs which are still running up to 2015. Anyway, we still could see the success or
the failure of the programs in local level, such as program in one village or one community.
For example, we could see specific achievements in one village – we could analyze whether the program
which is started years ago still running or not? Do the people in the village receive the benefits of the program
or was the program be a burden to them?
It is important to be transparent about the successful/failure variables, especially for the stakeholders. So
other areas could learn from other areas’ mistakes and not repeat it in the future – so the fund will be
effectively used and reach the targets.
Positive results of PNPM Mandiri might not be in physical results, but what important is the community
understanding about the importance to participate in develop their own area. Basically, the communities have
rights to know about the success achievements in their area; how the fund being managed and used; why
these projects succeed while others are not; why the hundred millions worth infrastructure broken easily, etc.
As we all know, PNPM Mandiri budget per year is quite big (on year 2010 the budget is around Rp 11.8
trillion and in 2011 the budget is around Rp 10.3 trillion. Please see the detail list on http://www.pnpmmandiri.org/index.php). With lots of money involved in the program, it is very important for media to be watch
dog and be the voice of the community to make sure all the programs run/conducted in the proper way – and
to report any deviations in the programs. Communities need to have access to all the problems / information –
that’s where media hold a part.
