1.0 INTRODUCTION
This background briefing report is designed to provide an introduction
about the planning and planning systems in Indonesia, with focus on
Java. To achieve this, a brief discussion has been conducted on the
differences of planning in Asian and Western countries to form a broad
picture. From this the report goes into more specifics on Indonesia,
covering its planning history, especially the large impact the
government has played before going into the current planning system.
For the current planning system the planning related legislation and
issues of concern for Indonesian planners is outlined. Finally, a number
of planning implications that were not already discussed in the report
are highlighted for a more thorough analysis of planning in Indonesia. It
is hoped that this report will provide readers a basic knowledge for
planning and planning systems in Indonesia so they are better equipped
to potentially engage in the planning process in Indonesia in some form.

5.0 CONCLUSION
To conclude, planning in Indonesia is highly dependent on the current
political situation. Over the duration of Indonesias planning history
planning related decision-making power has been shifted among the
different tiers of government, namely from the national level (a
centralised system) to the provincial and district levels (a decentralised
system). This shift although beneficial in terms of participatory planning
and addressing local level issues, has also seen many problems
including cases of inappropriate planning decision-making power usage
and the failure of conducting planning on regional level issues due to
the quick transition times between the different systems and lack of preresearched procedures. On a separate note, this report also highlighted
Law 26/2007 as the current spatial planning legislation in Indonesia and
also discussed some of the current planning issues of concern including
spatial disparity of income, conflicting land uses, urban migration and
changing land values. Finally, some planning implications were derived
from the report to further the analysis of planning in Indonesia.
