- Abstract
The Indonesian government is late in dealing with the spread of Covid-19, the government’s policy to issue Presidential Decree No. 12/2020 on April 14, 2020 concerning the Determination of the Covid 19 Non-Natural Disaster was carried out after the WHO’s warning regarding the readiness of the government on March 12, 2020. Economic considerations for the formulation of government policies were less responsive to public health protection guarantees, there was a strain on government interests between economic issues and interests community about health insurance issues. The West Sumatra Government made efforts to find a middle ground between economic interests and public health insurance by issuing a Regional Regulation on “Adaptation of Habits in the Prevention and Control of Corona Virus Disease 2019” as the first regional regulation containing criminal sanctions against health regulations for the spread of Covid -19 in Indonesia, The Perda was passed on September 11, 2020, the formulation of this Perda is a form of application of more stringent sanctions imposed by administrative sanctions that have been implemented by the Governor Regulation (Pergub), Regent Regulation (Perbup)) and Mayor Regulations (Perwako). This study describes the form of policy arrangements in dealing with the spread of Covid-19 that has been carried out by the West Sumatra Regional Government. Through the use of qualitative methods and research using a phenomenological approach, it was found that policies to overcome the spread in West Sumatra Province proceed from the constitutional level, the level of policy and level of real action in society
