Public services have become the main concern for public policy in the local governing. This is to harmonize the dynamic change of social demands with the capacity of local government to fulfill them through public services. To achieve this, it needs better competence of government apparatus as the service executor. A range of efforts directed to improve apparatus competence in the field of public service has become an endless discussion topic among scholars.
