Abstract

Corruption cases that involve the members of Regional House of Representatives (hereinafter DPRD) affect the political image of representative institution at local level. This article offers a new perspective in which competence, public trust, and political will have impacts on DPRD as people’s representative body. The data for this research was obtained from interviews and library research. The result reveals that the members of the DPRD of Malang city are considered sufficiently competent since they are well educated people. However, it is not relevant to the cadre recruitment model and candidacy. Public does not trust the members of the House of Representatives because the principle of democracy is used as a tool for political patronage. Finally, low political will of the members of DPRD is triggered by their tendency to manipulate public fund for their own sake to benefit their own political parties.
