It has a cold temperature because it is located in the highlands, though the place is quite accessible.
There are several problems related to public services which often occur in Anyar Village such as lack of public complaints, public awareness of the importance of public services, continuing delays and uncertainty over the period. Certainty in service is a fundamental matter. This is closely related to procedures that must be known by all levels of society, so that it does not become a confusion for the community. Another thing that becomes a problem is related to the period of time, oftentimes there are some unnecessarily prolonged services that are rather time and energy consuming in the use of services. This situation is exacerbated by geographical condition that is separated and a considerable distance from the village office, the distance between village office and the district office, and the district office with a service center in this case is the Regency Civil Registry Office. Delays often occur when relevant officials are not in office so that the administrative process is often hampered, this has an impact on the longer service process. Even though the people’s need for matters related to their population and civil events such as the death, birth and so on must be resolved immediately.
Lack of socialization of procedures regarding services often confuses people as the service users. Conditions like this can make irresponsible parties use the opportunity to carry out maladministration actions such as illegal levies, corruption, collusion and nepotism. Public service standards are things that become a measure and indicator of public services. The flow of information that will make the community can participate in supervising and evaluating all actions taken by service providers in providing services. It is hoped that the community can find out what to do when things go beyond the standard of service they should get.
