Abstract

The objectives of this study are 1) to study the performance of local government in Chiang Rai Province; 2)analyzes the relationship between the fiscal self-reliance and performance of local government in Chiang Rai Province; 3) analyzes the relationship between organizational factors and performance of local government in Chiang Rai Province. The researcher gathers the Local Performance Assessment (LPA) score, local financial data, and others from 143 local governments located in the provincial area. To test the hypothesis, this study utilizes the Non-Linear Multiple Regression Analysis with Fractional Response Model. The result illustrates that 1) an average of the LPA score of local government in Chiang Rai Province is at a very high level; 2) an increase in own-source revenue is significantly associated with increases in local government performance; 3) an increase in the LPA is associated with increases in local government performance. Additionally, an increase in the size of local area boundary associates with an increase in local government performance. According to these results, this study proposes policymakers to concern about enhancing the own-source revenue collection of local governments. If local governments have a high level of own- source revenues, they would be able to provide good local services for citizens thoroughly. Therefore, local governments should streamline their own-source revenue collection process so that they can achieve the fiscal sustainability goal in the future.
