government's role in poverty


In addition to build social awareness among the public with ukhuwah Islamiyah, poverty also must be solved through the government's economic policies, this is where the role of the state will never be released. Impossible without the role of the state of poverty can be erased.
In general poverty that struck the community caused by system errors, in this case the role of the state. During the New Order government's economic policies relying on economic growth rather than on economic distribution. So even succeeded in creating high economic growth, the government failed to reduce the gap let alone create a fair economic distribution.
In the current reform period, the further the government's economic policies favor the people. Various subisdi desperately needed people one by one began to reduced and lifted. Meanwhile, state assets and productive lives of many people to master, such as PT Indosat and PT Semen Gresik sold to foreigners. Various products of legislation is also very profitable for foreign investors and tend to hurt the small people.

It is now increasingly chaotic conditions in Indonesia. Menggurita corruption and increasingly openly, while law enforcement increasingly far from expectations. On the other hand government officials and other political elites and elbow each other busy thinking about his political position than to seriously consider how to improve people's lives. That situation illustrates our leaders are not trustworthy and not able to create systems that ensure the welfare of the community.
In the paradigm Islam, is the caretaker government and regulatory affairs of the people. The Prophet SAW said: â € œSeorang Priest is fancier and regulatory affairs (the people), and he will be held accountable for rakyatnya.â €? (Narrated by Bukhari and Muslim). Thus a ruler and a ruler is not for fun or for purposes that are not serviceable by religion.
It's an irony if every elected leader of the regents, mayors, governors, president, chairman of the DPR and MPR, they and their supporters rejoiced and congratulated. Though the election of a person as a leader is a gamble between hell and heaven, especially those institutions that will lead not to uphold the Islamic Sharia. They will carry out its mandate is very heavy, if they lift their people on a higher degree or to do injustice to the people.
Based on the hadith of the Prophet SAW, the supposed function of government is the custodian and regulator of public affairs. This means the government should pursue economic prosperity for all citizens through equitable wealth distribution arrangements with the law based on syaraâ € ™.

First, governments should make policies to ensure every member of society can meet their basic needs, such as clothing, food, housing, education, health, and security guarantees. Clothing, food and housing provided directly to the people destitute and poor. While the ministry of education, health, and security guarantees provided free by the state to every member of society. This policy directly aimed at any individual goal to solve the poverty problems that befall the individual.
By providing the same opportunity to get an education, maka basically every community member has the opportunity to increase intelligence and skill that is needed to work for a living, dan as skilled manpower in various development projects and Standard.
