Abstract

The local†government proliferation practice, as an implementation of Indonesia's decentralization reform, has resulted in a fragmentation of regional development, in which many local government consider themselves of their own ‘kingdom of authority’. This attitude could in turn inhibit local and regional development. The phenomenon of Indonesia's local†government proliferation is unique, as not many countries in the world have experienced as rapid growth in regional proliferation as Indonesia.
