Urbanization in Indonesia increased tremendously following the country's rapid development in the 1970s.[1] Since then, Indonesia has been facing high urbanization rates driven by rural-urban migration. In 1950, 15% of Indonesia's population lived in urban areas. In 1990, 40 years later, this number doubled to 30%.[2] Indonesia took only another 20 years to increase its urban population to 44% as reported in 2010.[3] The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) reported that the average population density of Jakarta, the capital, had reached more than 14,400 people per square kilometer. The BPS also predicted that the population in Jakarta will reach 11 million people in 2020 unless measures are taken to control the population.[4]
