Abstract

To achieve Sustainable Development Goals, Indonesia can apply the concept of smart city as a solution to the shifting primarily rural to a primarily urban population. However, until now, Indonesia has not had any legal regulations that specifically regulate Smart City. This study examines the urgency of the legal basis governing smart cities in Indonesia in accelerating sustainable development in Indonesia. Researchers found that the absence of legal regulations hampered the development of smart cities in Indonesia. Legal regulations legitimize smart cities as a policy that must be obeyed, measured and directed. So, if there is a change of leadership both at the central and regional levels, the Smart Cities policy will continue. This is even more urgent when Indonesia, as dominated civil law system country, has substantial strength to legally bind smart city regulations as a legal basis for policy-making.
