TY - JOUR PY - 2012// TI - Fostering partnerships towards sustainable urban mobility from the national to local level: Matsuyama, Japan and Yogyakarta, Indonesia JO - IATSS research A1 - Dirgahayani, Puspita A1 - Nakamura, Fumihiko SP - 48 EP - 55 VL - 36 IS - 1 N2 - This paper analyzes the implementation of Japan's and Indonesia's national frameworks aiming to promote sustainable urban mobility by placing transport policy coordination as pre-requisites under the decentralization regime. It takes two cities, Matsuyama and Yogyakarta, as the case studies. The analytical framework developed here highlights multi-level government coordination, coordination among local stakeholders, and regulator-operator coordination. The analysis is based on policy documents review, field observation, hearing and a questionnaire survey. The study shows some good practices as well as drawbacks of the schemes and produces lessons-learned from Japan's 'omnibus town scheme' to improve Indonesia's public transport program and for other cities in developing countries.
