This research uses a qualitative approach. The analytical tool adapted from Freud through (a) observation, effort to build perceptions based on observed observations in the field, (b) interviews, in-depth interviews with informants (to villages and village secretaries), and (c) documentation, declaring and documenting the past events. The findings show that the positive attitude shown by Rappoa's government apparatus is followed by positive behavior. It indicates that attitudes and behaviors demonstrated by village government and its apparatus are responsive. All government regulations, both from central government, provincial and local governments and even sub-district government must be followed by below government. The positive attitude of the village as the lowest government level should implement all the laws and regulations.
