Abstract

          The objectives of the research were to study the effectiveness of good governance policy implementation, to study the factors influencing the good governance policy implementation, and to study the guidelines on the promotion of good governance policy implementation. The research was studied by the mixed method research (MMR) between the quantitative and qualitative approaches. The sample group was a total of 420 respondents, selected through the purposive approach. The research instrument used for data collection was the questionnaire with the reliability between 0.87 – 0.99. The statistics used for data analysis comprised the frequency distribution, percentage, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, and the stepwise multiple regression analysis. A 0.05 level of significance was standardized. The key informants were nine administrators or assistant administrators of local administrative organizations (LAOs), selected through the purposive method. The interview was used to collect the qualitative data, which were engaged in the content analysis. The research finding revealed that the effectiveness of good governance policy implementation was found to be totally at a high level ( = 4.44); individually considered in the descending order, the rule of law was endowed with the highest level ( = 4.47), followed by the responsiveness ( = 4.45), the efficiency/value for money, and the consensus oriented ( = 4.44), the effectiveness, the transparency, and the participation ( = 4.43), the decentralization ( = 4.42), and the accountability was with the lowest level (   = 4.41). The other finding disclosed that four factors – staff proficiency, the administrator’s leadership, the organization’s participation, and the organizational culture – were found to influence the good governance policy implementation at a statistically significant level of 0.05, and their regression coefficients .286, .281, .213, and .207, respectively while their Adjusted R Square was equal to .665 (66.50%). The guideline on the promotion of good governance policy implementation specified that the administrators implementing the good governance policy implementation had to recognize the good governance on the value for money, and the effectiveness.
