Territorial Splits in Decentralization Era

Accordance to Law 32/2004, Decentralization is a given up authority from central government to the local and provincial government for  managing their local areas. The decentralization is essentially administrative and political in order to improve the quality of public service provisions. As Grindle 2007 argues decentralization is expected to reduce dependence local government; improve accountability; institutional change; and encourage local economic development.
That law reformed new territorial, consolidation (penggabungan daerah), amalgamation or splits (pemekaran). This policy can organize all local affair, except six areas of authorities: defense and security, monetary and fiscal policy, judiciary and religious affairs (Firman, 2011). By the day, the number of territorial splits increased in great number, In 2011 there were 524 new territorial splits, including 33 provinces, 493 local governments. (Ministry Home Affairs, 2011 in Firman, 2011). But in fact, the motive is highly about political motivation that happened between local and central government, that was also caused by the easy of prerequirement submission. (Boudreau, 2003 in Firman, 2011).
West Bandung Municipality (Kabupaten Bandung Barat a.k.a KBB) is one of a territorial splits from Bandung Municipality (Kabupaten Bandung) since January 2007. In the third period of splits time, KBB couldn't showed the increasing of regional economic situation neither in physics development and public services provisions.
