There is much evidence that green building which is initially believed to be the solution to solve the problems of climate change and energy crisis can not perform as expected. The fact that green buildings consumed more energy and emit more CO 2 than expected during the actual operation is due to the problems of inefficiency in building operation and maintenance. Facilities management integrates the entire component of the built environment including people, process, place and technology to make sure that the built environment system works optimally. It offer important contributions to address the challenge of inefficiency in terms of building operation and maintenance thus make facilities management industry become one of the fastest growing industry in the world. By doing a literature review, this paper intends to understand more about the practices of facilities management in different part of the world. It is found that there is a stark contrast in the development of facilities management practices in the western countries as compared to that in the eastern countries. The industry of facilities management is relatively new and the research related to that field is still limited thus provide a huge opportunity to develop it in the future since the importance of this field is increasingly recognize.

Green open space has been a worldwide issue. Big cities in the world have a higher concerns regarding open space provision. Researchers have proven that open space will improve the quality of life of people. However, problems of green space provision are also arising related to scarcity of land which is a common problem to cities with high density of population. One solution offered in big cities is converting vacant lot into pocket park. However, this solution could be different for informal settlement. The problems are worsened in this higher density area. The limited space and no proper infrastructure induce big problems such as health and social problems. This paper would like to find out the possibility to create such pocket park in the very limited space of informal settlement. The case study area looked at the informal settlements in coastal area in Surabaya, which is supposed to build the city image as waterfront city. The situation in the settlement has decreased over years and need a revitalization effort. This study used literature review to find solution of problems derived from the field observation. Pocket park could be an alternative solution which includes three successful factors: community participation, local identity, and support from community organization and government.
