The Memorandum of Understanding on City Partnership and Cooperation
between Banda Aceh (The Republic of Indonesia) and Samarqand (The Republic
of Uzbekistan) was established on 2011. Both local government of Banda Aceh
and Samarqand agreed on several point including in the Trade and Industry aspect
which could support the economic development in Banda Aceh. However, from
the preliminary research it is found that there is no implementation on the point on
trade and industry of the MOU itself.
The focus of this research is to analyze the mechanism of establishing an
international cooperation by local government of Aceh and also to analyze the
obstacle on the implementation of the mentioned MOU.
This research is conducted under juridical empiric method. The data in this
study were obtained through both library and field research. The library research
is to acquire secondary data by way of studying the legislation, books, the internet
and other scholarly works related to the problems of the research and fieldwork
conducted for obtaining primary data by interviewing respondents or informants.
The mechanism of establishment of the MOU on city partnership between
Banda Aceh and Samarqand has fulfilled the Law No. 24 of 2000 on Treaty and
the Ministry of Foreign Affair Regulation No: 09/A/KP/XII/2006/01. Meanwhile,
the implementation of the point of the MOU itself could not be accomplished
because of the absence of the Joint Working group, the lack of financial
availability, and also the lack of communication and coordination between both
local governments. Further, lack of coordination between the local government of
Banda Aceh and Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affair affects the implementation
as well.
In order to have successful MOU in the future, local government should be
more well prepared such as establish the Join working group, preparing the certain
budget for conducting the international cooperation, increasing the human
resources especially in the field of foreign language to facilitate the
communication. As the coordinator and supervisor of the international
cooperation, the Ministry of Foreign Affair should do evaluation of the
implementation of the international cooperation annually so that the local
government might get the solution of the problem which is faced when the
implementation.
