Argo This metropolitan governance case study is part of a joint effort of GIZ and UN-Habitat to develop a framework for their future cooperation with metropolitan regions and related partners. Three selected case studies – Metropolitan Bandung (Indonesia), Guadalajara Metropolitan Area (Mexico), and eThekwini (Durban, South Africa) - are complementing the global study “Unpacking Metropolitan Governance for Sustainable Development” (GIZ/ UN-Habitat, 2015).They were prepared by local consultants in collaboration with local institutions under the coordination of the Global Fund for Cities Development (FMDV). The three cases, although unique, are representative of the diverse situation of metropolitan governance in the global South and exemplify some of the core concepts of metropolitan governance developed in the international study. The Metropolitan Bandung case study has been realized by Ms Teti A. Argo and coordinated by FMDV. A comparative analysis as well as summary of each case study can be found in a separate publication. 3 Content 1.

OVERVIEW OF THE BANDUNG METROPOLITAN AREA 1.1 BASIC DATA Metropolitan Bandung is the third largest metropolitan area1 in the country, after Jakarta and Surabaya. It is located in the west side of Indonesia, in the most densely-populated island of Java (see Figure 1). FIGURE 1 - ORIENTATION MAP OF BANDUNG METROPOLITAN AREA IN INDONESIA N Not to scale Bandung Metropolitan Area Source: The Indonesia Matters, 2011. Metropolitan Bandung (MB) was legally recognized (10 March 2008) as one of the national urban centers within the National Urban System, through Government Regulation No 26/2008. This regulation established MB as a National Strategic Area (KSN) revealing its national strategic position for the national economy as well as for the national urban development dynamic, beyond Bandung proper city. This recognition allows the central government to pour money into local governments that would strengthen the roles of MB for regional development. Metropolitan Bandung aggregates two municipalities (Bandung and Cimahi) and three regencies (Bandung, West Bandung and Sumedang) (see figure 2). Regency of West Bandung was legally established in 2007, separating from the Regency of Bandung. 1 Based on the Government Regulation No. 26/2008 on National Spatial Plans, the definition of formally-defined cities in Indonesia is based on population number, as follows: 1) small cities are those which has less than a hundred thousand (< 100,000) population; 2) medium cities are populated between a hundred thousand and five hundred thousand
