| dc.description.abstract | Economic development theorists generally beliefs that investment mainly played an
important role in economic growth. Based on that, one can easily to think that
spatially disparity of economic growth mostly depends on spatially spread of
investment. This work try to investigate the spatially spread pattern of investment in
Indonesia in the past before the Asian financial and economic crisis occurred. In that
time, the government development policy stressed not only on economic growth but
also on reducing economic disparity included spatially. In the recent, the two kinds of
economic development policies’ stressing are still continued by the government.
Generally, the lessons from the past is that the spatially spread pattern of investment
in Indonesia tended to still concentrated in the western Java island (in Jakarta and its
surrounding) and also in the Sulawesi island. While in the other island, investment
tended to spread. | en_US |
