The Urgency Of Regional Expansion In The Territory Of West Java Province Based On The Principle of Justice

Abstract

Regional division is a way that is expected by the regions so that the regions can develop and advance the welfare of their people both in terms of infrastructure, education, regional income, and increasing their human resources. The plan for regional expansion in the West Java Province area is based on a proposal from the West Java Provincial Government which was then approved by the West Java Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD). The eight regions to be expanded include South Tasikmalaya Regency, North Garut Regency, South Garut Regency, South Cianjur Regency, North Sukabumi Regency, East Bogor Regency, West Bogor Regency and West Indramayu Regency. Justice in the expansion of the area will be felt by the people who are in the province of West Java, especially in terms of equal distribution of public services and equitable development. This study uses normative juridical and analytical descriptive methods. The conclusion is that regional expansion in the West Java Province region must continue to be carried out, so that areas that are difficult to achieve can experience an even distribution of development.
