| Summary: | It is generally agreed that the most important single function of government is to secure the rights and freedoms of individual citizens. Basically, government recognizes the principle that the public must be protected and served. The citizen, in effect, surrenders a degree of individual sovereignty to the government in return for protection of life and property and the delivery of essential services. Governments supervise the resolution of conflicting interests, the workings of the political process, the enforcement of laws and rights, and the monitoring of national income and international trade where government regulate economic and social relationships among individuals and private organizations and carry out enterprises such as production of military goods, provision of postal services, and ownership of power utilities and public works.Among the most basic services provided by government are the printing and coining of money, the provision of roads, sewers, water, education, and social and welfare services. Government spending also can be categorized as the main agenda to ensure citizen are really gain benefit from government expenditure. The allocation of goods and service efficiently will reflect the effectiveness of government in delivering the services and at the same time to fulfill needs and demands from citizen. Hence, financial area must be plan strategically that will meet the objective of government and in line to promote and develop economic growth incrementally. |
