Journal Title: Journal of Regional and City Planning - Year 2018, Vol 29, Issue 1
Abstract
A regionalization approach seeks to manage and to achieve development goals in line with regional characteristics. The development system of Malang Regency is conducted through regionalization approach that divided the area into six development regions (DR). Considering that each region has diverse characteristics/typology, describing this typology is the key to map the conditions and problems and to formulate alternative solutions. Thus, the main objective of the research is to analyze the development level of Malang Regency based on a typology of development regions. The specific objectives are as follows: (1) Analyzing the economic diversification in the development regions; (2) Analyzing the hierarchy of development regions; and (3) Analyzing the level of accessibility of the development regions. The research methods include entropy diversity index, scalogram, the level of accessibility (road density index and connectivity index) and cluster analyses. The results show that cluster analysis with proportional and comprehensive variables is able to describe the typology of development regions of Malang Regency, which are divided into three clusters, i.e.: (1) DR I Malang City Ring as the only cluster with a has high development level, (2) DR II Kepanjen, DR IV Tumpang, WP V Turen and Dampit have a medium development level (3) DR III Ngantang and DR VI Sumbermanjing Wetan have a low development level.
