Abstract
There will be an influx of migration due to the new capital city (Ibukota Negara or IKN) relocation to East Kalimantan Province. From the estimated migrating number of 1.5 million people, several people tend to dwell in the big city near to IKN as Balikpapan. The IKN relocation will indirectly impact Balikpapan, which is expected to be a buffer zone for the IKN. Therefore, the migration will increase the vulnerability of Balikpapan. Several sectors expected to receive the migration impact are the housing provision and slum areas, waste management, disasters, and infrastructure provision. This thesis uses resilience lens in discussing Balikpapan City concerning the urban life impacts caused by migration due to IKN relocation. This thesis uses a qualitative case study approach which is supported by analysis documents and semi-structured interviews. The result shows that two RPJMD documents still lack initiative action related to collaboration with other stakeholders, such as the higher government level. In the implementation of resilience, Balikpapan already has three resilience aspect at a certain level. However, there are considerable challenges in the context of a resilient city in Balikpapan including 1) Land availability, 2) overlapping responsibility and lack of coordination among government stakeholders, 3) insufficient public awareness, standout communities, and government distrust, 4) local human resources capability, and 5) city financial capability. This thesis offers strategies in 1) establishing the Regional Development Cooperation Agency to Support IKN and 2) the Establishment of Resilience Sub-District to enhance resilience in Balikpapan as Buffer zone for the new IKN.
