Abstract

As of 2025, Indonesia is the world’s largest archipelagic nation, with 17,000 islands, comprising 38 provinces led by governors, 416 regencies led by regents, and 98 cities led by mayors (Statistics Indonesia, 2025). Both regents and mayors have equal status as the second local government level after governors. Additionally, there are over 84,000 villages called desa in rural areas and kelurahan in urban areas.
