In 2015 the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were agreed upon at the United Nations (UN) conference for adoption by its members. The existence of the SDGs is to further detail the goals of sustainable development after the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) are not achieved. The SDGs are a form of perfection from the MDGs. Indonesia itself has ratified the SDGs through Presidential Decree no. 59/2017 regarding the implementation of achieving sustainable goals. From here, it was relegated to the National Action Plan (RAN), which was derived from the SDG's four pillars of the SDGs, namely social development, economic development, environmental development, legal effect, and good governance. Departing from this background, on Thursday, November 29, 2018, at the seminar room K.H Oesman Mansoer 3rd Floor, the Faculty of Economics and Business, University of Islam Malang, held an International Guest Lecture with the theme Good Public Governance for Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs) with Prof. Samrit Yossomsakdi, Ph.D. from Bhurapa University Thailand.

The event, which was opened by the Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Business, University of Islam Malang, Nur Diana, SE, M.Si stated that the Sustainability Development Goals as a substitute for the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) have eight principles of good governance according to the United Nations, namely participation, the rule of law, fair and inclusive, effective and efficient, responsive, transparent, consensus-oriented, accountable, transparent. The principle of implementing the SDGs is universal, integration, and no left being. Indonesia itself has ratified the SDGs through Presidential Decree No. 59/2017 concerning the implementation of the achievement of sustainable goals. As a member country of the United Nations, the government must implement it. The target for achieving the SDGs is by 2030. It should be realized that good public governance practices need not only be seen from the perspective of government supervision about implementing sustainable development. It needs to be seen from an overarching philosophy and how local and sub-national institutions and entities play a role in day-to-day public affairs. Unfortunately, many still forget good governance towards this common goal. The Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Business, Islamic University of Malang, hopes that students will gain a lot of insight into how countries in the world as members of the PPB implement good governance to realize the noble goals of the SDGs. The event, which was attended by around 500 students, consisted of postgraduate students, undergraduate students, and non-academics.
