Keywords: Empowerment, Prosperity,
Empowering
INTRODUCTION
Empowerment is from the word
‘power’ which means given power, not only
the power within but also the power to
influence surrounding. The citizens’
empowerment has the essence as the
increase of skill and give power to the
citizens to plan, build, and maintain the
process of development independently. This
strategy is applied under the constructions
“if the citizens are given chance to decide
independently, they will do the best for their
own shake”
Kediri government in 2015-2019
financial years has launched Prodamas
(Program Pemberdayaan Masyarakat) with
the tagline “Rp. 50.000.000 for one
neighbourhood every year” (Program
Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Di Kota Kediri,
2014). The activity of this program is to
identify the neighbourhood needs for public
utilities, economy and social. The fund
allocations are 60% for infrastructure and
40% for economy and social. The midterm
and long-term purpose of this program is to
increase the citizens’ prosperity because
with the sufficient infrastructure, access to
Mochamad Muchson. The implementation of prodamas to increase the people’ prosperity.

economy, education and health will be
guaranteed. The same point of view also on
the economy empowering aspects, there will
be a time when citizens could increase their
prosperities. The social program called
“house fixing” for example, this program
affects on productivity because the fit house
could facility the economy activity and
increase the quality of health and education.
From the discussion above, a study
on the Prodamas implementation is needed
to answer the questions “is Prodamas
applied based on the manual and does it
could increase people’s prosperity?”
Kediri government in 2015-2019
financial years has launched Prodamas with
the tagline “Rp. 50.000.000 for one
neighbourhood every year”. This program
has been applied well for 5 year by Kediri
local government and Kediri people. This is
the reason why a deep study is needed to
find how Prodamas implemented and how it
could increase people’s prosperity.
The research problem is limited to
the implementation of Prodamas in
neighbourhood level which cover
infrastructure building, people economy
development, culture development and
people’s prosperity increase so that the
research problem proposed is “how
Prodamas is implemented in increase Kediri
people prosperity?”. The objective of this
research is to study the implementation of
Prodamas in increase Kediri people’s
prosperity.
Theoretically, this research is
beneficial for: 1) Researcher: by conducting
this research, the researcher could enrich his
knowledge about people empowerment
especially from three points of view such as
enlightenment, capacity building, and
empowerment. Prodamas as the form of
empowerment (power, authority or chance)
are planning, implementing, and controlling.
The infrastructure building, economy
activity and social are proposed to increase
people’s prosperity, 2) University:
University as the higher education could
produce new theory/concept about
empowerment from the empowerment point
of view. 3) Knowledge: Empowerment
theory/concept as one side of empowerment
is hoped to add the reference on new
empowerment knowledge.
Practically, this research beneficial
for: 1) People (neighbourhood), the program
could teaches the people about identifying
their own needs, planning, implementing,
and controlling the activity of infrastructure
building, economy, and social for their own
prosperity. 2) The urban village, the urban
village could maximize its role as the guide
for teh people in planning, implementing,
and controlling the activity of infrastructure
building, economy, and social for their own
prosperity. 3) Regency, the regency as
“owner” must have SoP (Standard of
Operation) as the manual of Prodamas
implementation in the level of urban village
and neighbourhood. The existence of SoP
will guarantee the implementation of
Prodamas based on the standard and the
efforts of increase the prosperity could be
achieved.
LITERATURE REVIEW
The citizens’ empowerment is
placed the citizens as the centre of attention
and put them as the implementer (centred
development). The citizens or people are no
longer the objects of development but they
are the subjects of development so that their
participation determines the success of
development, this strategy is taken as the
correction on the failure of growth oriented
development which marginalize the people
and give the big economy big players and
the government as the centre of economy
growth.
People base policy will give more
guarantees to create more continuum
fairness (Muslim, 2015). The policies
produced by the government will be more
sustainable and durable because the policies
get the supports from all people’s elements.
Explains that the understanding of the
empowerment conventional has two
definitions. 1) to give power or authority to
or giving power, change the power, or to
delegate authority to others side. 2) to give

ability to atau to enable or the work on
giving skills or explicit power (Wrihatnolo
& Dwijowijoto, 2014). The second is about
how to create chance to actualize someone’s
power (people).
Seeing from the definition of
empowerment in the previous paragraph,
Prodamas is eligible as the people
empowerment because the program with the
main word is empowerment. This has two
definitions: 1) to give power or authority to
or giving power, change the power or to
delegate authority to others side. The
government delegate the development
authority to the citizens. 2) to give ability to
or to enable or the work on giving skills or
explicit power. The second is about how to
create chance to actualize someone’s power.
The aim for this is to give skills and power
to people.
The citizens’ empowerment is
placed the citizens as the centre of attention
and put them as the implementer (centred
development). The citizens or people are no
longer the objects of development but they
are the subjects of development so that their
participation determines the success of
development, this strategy is taken as the
correction on the failure of growth oriented
development which marginalize the people
and give the big economy big player and the
government as the centre of economy
growth.
Explained that the process of
empowerment has three stages:
resuscitation, capacitating, and empowering
(Wrihatnolo & Dwijowijoto, 2014), the
followings are the steps:
a. The first step is resuscitation. This stage
give empowered people are
“enlightened” by giving them
understanding that they have right to
move out from the recent condition to
more empowered situation. Program in
this stage is by giving cognitive
knowledge, belief and healing. This
basic principle is to make the citizens
understand that they are empowered and
the process is started from them.
b. The second step is capacitating or often
called “Capacity Building” or in the
simple word “enabling”. In receiving
power, the people must have
competence for the first. Capacity
building has three parts. They are
human, organization, and value system.
The capacitating is to give sufficient
capacity to the human individually or in
group. The capacity building could be
formed in apprentice, training,
workshop, seminar, education
upgrading, etc. The basic is to give
capacity to an individual or group of
human to take the power given. The
organization capacitating is done in the
form of reconstructing the organization
which would receive the power or
capacity. The organization
reconstruction is done by restructure the
organization; formulate the
vision/mission/objective and the target
of organization. The third is the
capacitating on the organization value
system. The system value is the rule of
the game. In the organization, the
system value is dealing with article of
association, fund estimation, system and
procedure, and rule. In the higher level,
the system value consists of
organization culture, etiquette and good
governance.
c. The third is empowerment. This stage
gives the people power, authority and
chance. The give is based on the
competence people have. This power is
given in the forms of human resource,
capital, marketing, technology, etc. In
other side, power or authority is the
active involvement of the people in
planning, implementation, and the
evaluation of the progress.
Explains about 5 arguments why the
people empowerment is applied in the
development process (Wrihatnolo &
Dwijowijoto, 2014), they are:
a. The first is the development democracy.
The concept of empowerment which is
trusted in answer the challenge by active
involvement of the people. The
Mochamad Muchson. The implementation of prodamas to increase the people’ prosperity.
International Journal of Research and Review (ijrrjournal.com) 261
Vol.7; Issue: 11; November 2020
involvements are including planning,
implementation, supervising and
evaluating. One of the democracy
approaches is by giving big portion of
chance for the people in grass-root to
involve in allocation of development
resource. This is the essence of people
driven development. This process is
believed as the medium for people to
recognize what they needs and to
continue the effort of needs fulfilment.
The implementation of this
empowerment model will give effect to
the well managed constitutional.
b. Second, strengthened of the local people
organization. The empowerment concept
is believed as the answer for maximize
the role of the local organization in the
development process. The local people
organization (independent local
organization) plays the central role
because they understand about the grass
root people characters. In the
management modern empowerment
mechanism, the people’ role must be
organized multi direction, vertically and
horizontally. The role of organization in
partnering people is various from
initiator, catalyst to facilitator.
c. Third, the strengthened on social value.
The concept of empowering is believed
could strengthen the social bond among
people. The strengthening on social
value has the meaning of constructing
the universal of social value; they are
honesty, togetherness and care. The
strengthening of social value is a basic
motivation on every activity which
could be the empowerment spirit. The
process itself is hoped to create
independent culture, harmony
relationship among people and between
people and government.
d. Fourth, the strengthening on the local
administration capacity. The concept of
empowerment could increase the
function of public service, especially the
service of local government to the
people. This concept pushes the local
government to give greater attention to
people in getting their life needs both
physic and non-physic easily.
e. Fifth, accelerating poverty overcoming.
The concept of empowerment in its best
shape is believed could accelerate
poverty overcoming because the
approach of this empowerment is to
increase the poor people prosperity. Due
to the program must be side to side with
the people and protect the people, the
organization is demanded to allocate the
development source to poor people. The
local character must be the base of
getting much attention to the poor by
giving them chance and articulate their
aspiration well. The protection is given
by supporting their positive aspects.
They must be protected and guided to
achieve or access the source of
economy. That’s why the guidance is
very important to achieve this objective.
Prodamas put the people on the
centre of attention and the main
implementer of development (people
centred development). People are no longer
the objects of development but they are the
subjects of development so that the people
participation is considered as the determiner
of the development success.
Prodamas has been required the
empowerment principle as explained by
(Mardikanto, 2012) explains the principles
of people empowerment as follows:
a. Voluntary, someone’s involvement in
empowerment program shouldn’t be a
compulsive involvement. The
involvement must come from their own
conscious and the motivation to fix and
solve the life problems they face. This
voluntary reflects from the freedom to
discuss and decide the empowerment
programs dealing with the empowering
in their neighbourhood.
b. Autonomous, it is a capability to be
independent or the effort to be
independent of each individual, group,
or organization. Autonomous reflects
from the independent of the people in
the neighbour to discuss and decide the
programs of people empowerment.

Vol.7; Issue: 11; November 2020
c. Self-supporting, it is a ability of
formulate and implement the program
with responsibility without waiting or
expecting other organizations. The self-
supporting reflects from the people in
the neighbourhood in planning and
implementing the programs.
d. Participative, it is the involvement of all
the stakeholders from the decision
making, planning, implementing,
monitoring, evaluating and utilizing the
result of the activities. Participative
reflects from the involvement of all the
people in planning, implementing,
monitoring, evaluating and utilizing the
empowerment programs.
e. Egalitarianism, it is to place all the
stakeholders in the equal position, no
one is higher than others and no one is
lower. Egalitarianism reflects from the
chief of neighbourhood, Prodamas guide
and from the urban village official are in
the same position in planning, and
decision making in people
empowerment program.
f. Democracy, it is to give all the people
right to express their opinions and
respect each other on the difference
among stakeholders. Democracy reflects
from the equal right given to all the
people in neighbourhood means all the
people could propose their opinion for
the empowerment program.
g. Openness, it is the program’s
characteristic which stands by honesty,
trust each other and care. Openness
reflects from the arrangement of the
planning is open for everyone in
neighbourhood.
h. Togetherness, it is about share the
problem, help each other and develop
the synergy. Togetherness reflects on the
arrangement of the empowerment
program which is done together in
neighbourhood.
i. Accountable to the public interest, the
accounting is clear in responsibility and
supervised by anyone. Accountable to
the public interest reflects to the
planning and implementing which
involved all the people in the
neighbourhood so that the result can be
accountable.
j. Decentralization, it is about to give
authority to autonomy area (city or
municipal) to optimize the resource as
much as the people prosperity and
continuum. Decentralization reflects
from the process of development which
involves the neighbourhood in the
development process in empowerment
program.
Explains the objectives of
empowerment program as efforts of
correction as follows (Mardikanto, 2012):
a. Better education means the
empowerment programs must be set as
the better education. The correction in
education trough empowerment are not
only material correction, methods
correction, correction on place and time,
the relationship between facilitator and
the subjects of the program but also the
correction in education and grow the
lifetime learning spirit.
b. Better accessibility. By growing the
lifetime learning spirit, the accessibility
to get the source of
information/innovation, fund source, the
product and equipments supplier,
marketing organization, etc. Prodamas
has given people in urban village access
to development sources of
infrastructure, economy, social,
education, health or youth.
c. Better action. With the correction in
education and accessibility with the
better source, it’s hoped the activities
become better. Prodamas has educated
people to fix their way of life trough
planning, implementing, evaluating and
taking the benefits of the empowerment
programs.
d. Better institution. By fixing the action or
activity, the organization is fixed in all
aspects including the business
networking. Prodamas has empowered
the organization of neighbourhood and
the urban village organization with less
Mochamad Muchson. The implementation of prodamas to increase the people’ prosperity.

contribution on the life quality
improvement efforts.
e. Better business. The reparation on
accessibility, activities, and organization
fixing are hoped could fix the business
on progress. Prodamas trough the
economic empowerment has arranged
the programs like sewing class, cooking
class, engineering class, catfish seeding
and growing. The previous programs are
hoped could become business.
f. By fixing teh business, it is hoped that
the income will be better including
families’ income and people’s income.
Prodamas trough economy
empowerment program hasn’t increased
people’s income because the classes are
not followed up by entrepreneurship.
g. Better environment. Better income
hoped could fix environment (physics
and social) because the environment
damage often caused by poverty and
limited income. Prodamas trough the
infrastructure program could fix the
environment of the neighbourhood like
garden building, water drainage, water
absorption, security post, gateway, etc.
h. Better living. The better level of gross
domestic product and environment
situation are hoped could fix the
condition of each family and people
trough Prodamas Program.
i. Better Community. Better living with
the better support of environment is
hoped to lead better people living.
Prodamas trough it’s empowerment
program such as infrastructure,
economy, social culture, health,
education and youth has made better
living for people.

DISCUSSION
Prodamas have been done very well
by people in neighborhood means all the
empowerment programs is conducted as the
infrastructure programs manual, economy
and social culture and even spread to health,
education and youth program known as
Prodamas Plus. Based on the input-process-
output theory, Prodamas has been required
all these criteria. Input represents by the
fund processed to become product garden or
garden as the output, the security post
renovation processed to become better
security post, water drainage processed to
become better water drainage, water
absorption processed to absorb rain water
more better so that the puddle gone from the
neighborhoods. So that the economy
programs like cooking class, sewing class,
engineering class, catfish seeding as the
product or the output are the rise of people’s
competence and the availability of tools. It
happens also to social culture program like
tent purchase, seat, generator set, under five
baby sympathetic care, and senior citizens
sympathetic care. The baby under five and
senior citizens who have gotten service are
the output. The other programs are
education program like school equipment
supply, health program like herbal medicine
planting, and youth program like the supply
of sport equipments have been conducted
well.
The main problem of Prodamas
seeing with the input-porcess-output-
outcome is in the follow up and the effect of
the empowerment program especially in
economy program. People who have joined
the cooking class, sewing class, engineering
class, catfish seeding and growing, sheep
cultivation, Have these training risen the
family economy which means the gross
domestic product rises? The main point of
the empowerment program is to make the
people independent in economy as the
major’s guidance.

participate in the development programs
in their areas.
b. Facility people in articulating their
needs and helps to identify their
problems.
c. Increase development facilities of
infrastructure development in
neighborhood environment.

Kediri city government must have
clear parameter for the Prodamas
Achievement. The achievement
measurement is not only the fund allocation,
planning, and the implementation of the
program but also the measurement of the
program on its outcomes. The follow up and
the effect of the programs especially the
economic program, have the these
entrepreneurship programs followed by
opening business so that the programs could
increase the economy of individual or
people and achieved the prosperity? The
measurement of outcome consists of
infrastructure, economy, social culture,
health, education and youth have their own
parameter. The measurement of the
infrastructure is on its benefit and
contributions on the continuity and the look
of the environment. The measurement of the
social culture is on the increase of the
people social prosperity. The measurement
of health is on the people health increase.
