Indonesian regional legislatures are currently processing budget amendments and drafts for the 2026 and 2027 fiscal periods. 

In Batam, the regional house approved a 2026 budget amendment, increasing spending from approximately Rp4.29 trillion to Rp4.59 trillion. In Magelang, discussions regarding the 2026 amendment are ongoing, with political factions calling for fiscal efficiency and infrastructure strengthening due to decreasing central government transfer funds.

Other regions report varying developments: Tangerang Regency's NasDem Party has requested more targeted and efficient budget changes for 2026. In Jember, officials agreed on 2026 changes that include a school revitalization budget increase of more than 100 percent compared to 2025. Meanwhile, in Magetan, the budget committee expressed concern over the 2027 draft, noting that projected personnel expenditures could rise to 45 percent of the total budget, potentially limiting funds for capital development.
