The researcher collected information related to the implementation of educational service as instructed by the central to local government then to the educational institutions. The study found that good plans and regulations are not sufficient to deliver the interchangeable educational services to the community. The local government is considered unable to provide the standardized service quality in education as promulgated by the central government. The poor economic condition in Tasikmalaya also contributes to the complexity of educational development there. The research results suggest the significant role of the local governments in responding to educational development planning which is initiated by the central government to achieve well-qualified education. Further, capacity building is proposed to be a solution for promoting responsive local governments.
