Abstract

The constitutional design of the relationship between the Central Government and Regional Governments in Indonesia is built on the principle of a unitary state. The determination of the status of the Covid-19 Pandemic by the World Health Organization (World Health Organization) based on the number of virus spreads has increased significantly and continuously globally, this is responded by the Government of Indonesia by establishing the status of the Covid-19 outbreak as a National Disaster as stated in Presidential Decree No. 12 of 2020 concerning the Determination of NonNatural Disasters for the Spread of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) as National Disasters. Furthermore, the President formed a Task Force for the Acceleration of Handling Covid-19 in order to coordinate the capacity of the central and regional governments. The legal research method used in this research is normative juridical law research. Based on the results of research conducted, the initial concept of regional autonomy was intended for local governments to be able to develop their regions without relying solely on the central government. However, to realize the flexibility to regulate and manage affairs outside the stipulated affairs, it can only be carried out by the region if it has been approved by the central government.
