Rapid urbanization is straining Indonesia's cities: it is the urban poor who suffer most. Urban services are inadequate to absorb the continuous flow of people into the cities, which were neglected for years and which took a blow in the aftermath of the crisis. Decentralization is providing an opportunity as well as a threat for improving urban services. The policy could enable city managers to tackle issues affecting their citizens, but at the same time, its hasty implementation and incomplete framework could strain cities even further in the short run. For cities to be able to face the challenges of the present and the potential of the future, the central government must complete the unfinished agenda of decentralization that will enable local governments to fully assume their new responsibilities, while the cities must strive to meet rising local aspirations by improving urban services, reducing urban poverty and promoting local economic development.
