Autonomy is authority to control and manage the household area, attached to the State and the unity of the state federation. In a country of unity more limited autonomy of the State in the form of federation. Authority, and usher in the household area in the State unitary authority covering all of government except for some matters that are held by the central government such as:

The implementation of regional autonomy based on a reference in addition to the law, as well as the implementation of the demands of globalization to be empowered by giving local authorities a wider, more realistic and responsible, especially in organizing, using and exploring sources potential in their respective regions . In the implementation of regional autonomy had main problems are: 1. Understanding the concept of decentralization and regional autonomy has not been steady. 2.
