The Indonesian government is advancing spatial planning and infrastructure development in strategic border regions through coordination between the National Border Management Agency (BNPP) and the Ministry of Agraria and Spatial Planning/National Land Agency (ATR/BPN).

Initial efforts focused on specific border zones, such as the Talaud Islands in North Sulawesi and the Sanggau Regency in West Kalimantan. In North Sulawesi, plans for the Miangas and Marampit areas aim to synchronize development with the needs of outermost small islands, focusing on national defense, security, and managing cross-border ties with Mindanao. In West Kalimantan, development in Entikong and Sekayam seeks to integrate infrastructure with local agro-industry and food security.

Subsequent developments show an acceleration of these efforts. The Ministry of ATR/BPN has expanded the preparation of Detailed Spatial Plans (RDTR) through various work packages across multiple provinces, including West, Central, and East Java, as well as Southeast Sulawesi, East Nusa Tenggara, and North Maluku. Additionally, the BNPP and ATR/BPN are working to delineate planning areas in the Maritaing National Border Area and Toli-Toli to integrate sovereignty and community welfare into broader governance frameworks.
