Abstract

The dynamics of the desire of the people in an area to be autonomous have been addressed by the central government with the issuance of the regional autonomy policy in Government Regulation Number 78 of 2007. It concerns the procedures for the formation, deletion and incorporation of regions. Along with the demands and developments in the dynamics of the community to obtain welfare, justice and public services, there are several sub-districts in Pelalawan Regency in the South Region of Riau Province wishing to form a new autonomous region or become a regional division. The community feels that the region has the economic potential, natural resources and financial capacity to improve the welfare of the community. It also has a rapidly growing population. In 2017, there were around 204,308 thousand people, who enable them to fulfil the requirements of becoming a new autonomous regions. On that basis, the proposed expansion of the district needs to be studied in depth to determine its feasibility. The main forms of data used as the basis for this research are primary and secondary data. Secondary data is extracted from various relevant sources, namely the Central Statistics Agency, Regional Statistics Office, regional government, Bappeda and analysis of various variables and indicators.
