“…Others approach city networks from the linkage rather than the nodal perspective, focusing on understanding the relationships and formal partnerships connecting them (e.g. Bontenbal & Van Lindert 2008; Tjandradewi & Marcotullio 2009; Van Ewijk & Baud 2009; Van Lindert 2009).…”

Whereas the global networking of cities is commonly understood from a fiscal‐economical and technological perspective explaining world economy and globalisation structures, this paper discusses another viewpoint of city networking in which the exchange of knowledge on urban management and policy‐making is examined. It reviews the policy context and practice of Dutch cities in North‐South city networking and their role in international development co‐operation through the sharing of municipal knowledge and expertise with partner cities in developing countries. Against the background of shifts in development thinking leading to increased acknowledgement of the role of cities in development co‐operation, past and current policies at the national as well as the municipal level are considered that shape the framework for Dutch city networking with the ‘global South’.

“…Untuk mengantisipasi pencemaran lingkungan, penting bagi pemerintah untuk memiliki patokan pengelolaan kota lain sebagai pembelajaran prihal inisiasi dan program yang telah berhasil diimplementasikan dalam mengendalikan pencemaran lingkungan. Sejauh ini, kolaborasi antar kota difasilitasi dalam penerapan konsep sister city (Tjandradewi and Marcotullio, 2009).

Indonesia has many big cities with dynamic urbanization trend, increased economic growth and activities, rapid population growth, and dense populations such as Jakarta, Bandung, Medan, Surabaya and Balikpapan. As a result, the complex activities of people in urban areas need space and these needs cause environmental degradation, such as the practice of throwing garbage that is not in place. To prevent this in the future, it is important for developing countries like Indonesia to have benchmarks. Benchmarks for developing countries can come from developed countries. So far inter-city development usually has partnerships with cities abroad, including the sister city concept. Sister city practices can be used by cities in Indonesia for the development of good practices. The collaboration of Surabaya (Indonesia) with Kitakyushu (Japan) focuses a lot on creating urban planning that is environmentally sound or commonly known as green city or eco-city.

“…As of 2009, the membership comprised 139 organisations (local authorities, municipal associations, NGOs, research institutions and private companies). The main objective of the network is to promote South-South cooperation among subnational actors through reciprocity (Tjandradewi and Marcotullio 2009). This networking organisation operates as an external support agency, matching supply with demand for expertise and experience and sharing lessons learned among the members.…”
