ABSTRACT
The purpose of this research is to reveal the ethical dilemma of the role of village officials in the fraudulent practice of distributing Village Fund Direct Cash Assistance (BLT-DD). This research uses a phenomenological approach. The study showed that village officials experienced an ethical dilemma regarding fraud in distributing BLT-DD. First, the village head experienced a dilemma between his residents' demand that the BLT-DD program be divided equally so that because of the sympathy felt by the village head, the BLT-DD money was cut. Second, the village secretary must face the village head’s orders to manipulate signatures. Third, the Village Consultative Board felt uncomfortable wanting to monitor the performance of the village head. Fourth, there is a lack of clarity in the structure of the BLT-DD volunteer team, so they experience confusion in carrying out their duties in the BLT-DD program. Fifth, the experience gained becomes a solution to overcoming the dilemma experienced by the actor in the fraudulent practice of distributing BLT-DD.
