Abstract

Agglomeration has become a central attention in the literature of economic geography, business strategy and national competitiveness, and regional studies. However, we still know little of how common and widespread the phenomenon of agglomeration across regions, cities, and industries.This paper explores the nature of agglomeration, where it tends to locate in DIY, and the driving forces underpinning agglomeration. It found that urbanisation and industrialisation tend to merge and form an extended city of Yogyakarta. The pattern and dynamics of agglomeration has been extending, albeit bringing wider inequality spatially. Hence, a common "spaceless" regional development strategy is urgently reformed.

Abstract

This paper attempts to explore to what extent the current regime has changed the business and investment climate in Indonesia. Tsunami and earthquake in various regions overshadowed and sank the hope of fundamental changes by what is called as one hundred day of SBY-JK. Our findings illuminate that the SBY-JK regime has not addressed some critical problems encountered by industries and companies thoroughly. Therefore, we argue some suggested corrective actions based the surveys are badly needed for the new cabinet and local governments in Indonesia. The major reforms may include: (1) changing source of economic growth, from consumption driven to investment/ export-led growth; (2) some corrective actions to eliminate, at least reduce, the barriers along roads, seaports, and customs to increase export and eliminate corruption; (3) a well designed and comprehensive medium term planning to highlight the pathways that both central and local government will pursue.
