“…The suburbanization phenomenon closely related to sprawling so called as suburban sprawl. Referring to Murakami et al (2005) study, the emerging pattern is very common in Asian cities as it is very much similar with the pattern in view selected cities in the neighboring countries. Eventhough there is a lot of debate to clearly define and measure the dynamics of suburban sprawl, indeed, it should be anticipated to have a more efficient public services provision and higher quality of life.…”

“…What has had happened in Semarang Metropolitan is quiet similar with those has had been experienced in the three mega cities in South East Asia, i.e. Jakarta, Bangkok, Metro Manila in 1970-1998 as illustrated in Figure 8 ( Murakami et al, 2005). However, the density pattern in the Semarang Metropolitan take place in a lower rate of density and in a closer distance indicating that urban expansion of Jakarta, Bangkok and Manila has had been taken place in a greater area.…”

Representation of rapid urban growth followed by high rate of land conversion is clearly observed in the case of Semarang Metropolitan. Located in Java Island, this capital city has been performing as the largest urban area in the Central Java Province. This paper aims to examine urban growth pattern in Semarang Metropolitan by applying two main indicators, i.e., (1) additional built-up area 1972-2009 indicated as land conversion, and (2) population change between 1991-2008. Accordingly, distance is regard as an important parameter to further examine the emerging pattern based on the two indicators. Remote Sensing (RS) and Geographical Information System (GIS) were used to analyze satellite images and built-up area development from the different periods. The analyses result show that suburbanization has been taken place in Semarang Metropolitan. The emerging pattern is very common in Asian cities as it is very much similar with the pattern in view selected cities in the neighboring countries (Jakarta, Bangkok, Metro Manila).

“…Because Asian megacities typically sprout from several urban centers (Ng & Hills, 2003), their urbanization patterns differ from the city growth experienced in Western countries. Urbanization and growth in Asian megacities, while showing some of the characteristics of Western urbanization, also exhibit features unique to Asian countries (Murakami, Zain, Takeuchi, Tsunekawa, & Yokota, 2005). Several studies have pointed out land-use mixture as a major feature of Asian urbanization.…”

Urban expansion and urbanization have been continuing to grow rapidly, especially in Asian megacities. Greater Jakarta (Jabodetabek) has emerged as the world's second largest urban area, with a population of 28 million in 2010, where urban expansion has a significant impact on the local as well as the global environment. Efforts to control urban expansion must start from a clear understanding of its various driving forces at a local, regional, and global level. Studies of the interdependencies between these driving forces in the local spatial relationships in emerging Asian megacities remain limited. This study explores the driving forces of urban expansion in Jabodetabek by considering local spatial dependency and analyzes the spatial characteristics of this urbanized area as well as identifies spatial variations in the relationship between urban expansion and its driving forces by using Geographically Weighted Regression. The presented findings show that the driving forces affecting urban expansion in the Jabodetabek region vary spatially. Owing to the influence of the global and regional economies on Jabodetabek, we find that the demographic, infrastructural, and natural elements driving forces significantly affect urban expansion in this region according to location. Outside the core of this megacity, urban expansion in most areas is significantly affected by local demographic as well as infrastructural driving forces. Jakarta city, as the core of the Jabodetabek megacity, is becoming independent of these local driving forces, however, since it is now more characterized as a global city and thus tending to have more linkages with the world market.

“…Considering recent trends and projections of urbanization, the relevance of cities will become even more pressing in the future (Barragán and de Andrés 2015;Jiang and O'Neill 2017). This holds in particular for Southeast Asia, where the flood protection standards are less developed (compared to Europe) and high urbanization rates can be found (Murakami et al 2005). At the same time, detailed impact assessments are rare for this region.…”
