The purpose of LPD is to help customary village in implementing its cultural functions. LPD has been proven to improve the economic, social and cultural conditions of the society. Currently, the existence of LPD is strengthened by the issuance of Law of Micro Finance Institution No. 1 of 2013. Based on that law, LPD is regulated based on customary law of each village. In fact, not all LPDs are able to develop sustainably. One of the factors that causing the problem is the lack of awareness to realize good governance practices in conflict prevention between management and village communities as the LPD owners. Good governance practices should fulfil the principles of transparency, accountability, responsibility, independence and fairness.
