Abstract

The study aims to determine the effect of the water sector privatization in Indonesia on the public's response. Privatization of the water sector has already taken place in Indonesia and is regulated by Law No. 19 of 2003 concerning State-Owned Enterprises. The process of privatizing the water sector should provide better benefits for the community. The community's response is expected to accept this privatization and not make it an obstacle in the supply of water, both drinking water and toilet washing water. The population in this study is a group of people in the city of Bandung who in their daily life obtain their water needs from various sources other than subscribing to PDAM. The technique of collecting data in the form of a snowball was obtained by 54 respondents who filled out the survey given through the form and met directly with the respondents. The data were processed using SPSS 24 with insignificant results and only had an effect of 5%.
