Abstract: Public policy has an important role in public service delivery. Ineffective policies will bring about public service failure which affects the public satisfaction. That phenomenon happens at traditional market revitalization issue in Indonesia. Traditional markets are the main pillar of public economy in Indonesia. Hence, the government needs to encourage the traditional markets revitalization as a manifestation of public service. Yet, the revitalization policy often faces obstacles, especially in the managing of the traditional markets. The traditional market revitalization policy actually causes low public satisfaction as the policy is considered disadvantageous for the traders. This study finds there is no process of harmonizing public preferences among the stakeholders which leads to failure of implementation traditional market revitalization policy. The model of public policy based on deliberative process emphasizes the importance of involving each and every element of society and forms a policy network.
