The local level of governance of rukun warga and rukun tetangga also includes the rukun kampung
A rukun tetangga is chaired by a ketua RT elected by its citizens. An RT consists of a number of households (KK).
Most information about governance and functioning of the RT and RW is in Indonesian. Some non-Indonesian anthropologists have written about the functions and issues.
