In West Sumatra, exploited the opportunity by passing the Regional Regulation (Perda) West Sumatra Province No. 9 Year 2000 about Main Provisions Nagari government which became a guide for the 8 (eight) districts in West Sumatra to develop laws governing the village government in the region. With the enactment of this law, then the system of government gradually removed and replaced the village with village government system in accordance with the culture of Minangkabau culture.
