This document summarizes key points from a presentation given by Dr. Wolfgang Fengler of the World Bank on Indonesia's economic geography and the impact of fiscal decentralization. The main points are:
1) While growth in Indonesia is uneven, decentralization has helped make development more inclusive by directing more resources to poorer provinces.
2) Over the past 10 years, decentralization has significantly increased transfers to poorer regions, helping to equalize living standards across Indonesia.
3) However, the main ongoing challenge is ensuring that poorer regions spend their increased resources effectively to promote development.

WORLD BANK OFFICE JAKARTA BOGOR, 23 JULY 2009 Indonesian Regional Science Association Conference (IRSA Institute) Regional Development in Indonesia: Political Economic Perspectives Indonesias Economic Geography and Fiscal Decentralization 10 years after designing the big bang Main messages Growth will always be unbalanced but development can still be inclusive (message from the World Development Report 2009) Indonesia is a high diverse and unequal country but decentralization has been equalizing because poor provinces have been the main beneficiaries of Indonesias decentralization, particularly in the last 5 years. Today, main challenge is not to transfer additional funds to poor regions, but to help poor regions spend the resources well. The new Economic Geography: Seeing Development in 3D (World Development Report 2009) Density: Tokyothe biggest city in the world 35 million out of 120 million Japanese, packed into 4 percent of Japans land area Distance: USAthe most mobile country More than 35 million out of 300 million changed residence in 2006; 8 million people changed states Division: West Europethe most integrated continent About 35 percent of its GDP is traded, almost two thirds within the region The three 3Ds and three Special Places in the world Concentration, a fact of life, Half of the worlds production..

G D P Kabupaten/Kota (IDR Trios) Province (IDR Trios) % GDP Conclusions Indonesia is becoming an urban country 60% urban by 2015. It is important that decentralization policies take on the urban challenge. Indonesias inter-governmental transfer system has been equalizing Indonesias disparities. The challenge is to provide direct and indirect incentives to improve the quality of spending.
