Public space becomes a media to establish interactive communication between the public and the state which is usually called as public participation or public opinion. Democracy is not only related to politic (e.g. parliament decision), but it is also related to public policy. The process of public policy has been developing. Previously, public policy is a struggle result of idea, interest, and ideology of public representation to elite group in government institution. It influences public opinion in making policies. This paper used the method of literary study by describing scientific, intensive, and detail phenomenon about program, event, and activities on the level of personal, group, institution or organization to obtain deeper knowledge about the phenomenon.
