DYNAMICS OF COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE LEGISLATURE AND THE EXECUTIVE IN THE DETERMINATION OF THE REVISED REGIONAL BUDGET IN WEST SULAWESI PROVINCE
Discussion of the revised Regional Budget (APBD) is closely related to the interaction of power between the legislature and the executive. The existence of efficient political communication between the executive and the legislature will also create a successful system of government. This study aims to analyze and describe the dynamics of negotiation and political communication between the executive and legislature in the determination of the revised Regional Budget in West Sulawesi Province in 2021. This research used field research methods to obtain primary and secondary data. Primary data is obtained from interviews, while secondary data is obtained from documents that clarify the primary data. The results showed differences in the meaning of the main thought between the executive and legislative parties in the discussion of the revised Regional Budget of West Sulawesi. The difference between interpretation and point of view creates distortions in political communication. Furthermore, differences in interest orientations significantly impact the political communication process during the discussion of the revised APBD. This type of interest greatly influences the efficiency of discussing the revised APBD in West Sulawesi.
