Abstract

The occurring Covid-19 pandemic has an impact on all sectors of life, including the regional economy. Collaboration between regions is extremely important to support strengthening their respective economies. The government’s concrete step in dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic is the implementation of intergovernmental relation (IGR). This research aimed to produce an IGR model as a form of strategy to strengthen the regional economy during the Covid-19 pandemic, especially in the Greater Malang area. This study used a qualitative approach where data collection and verification were done through focus group discussion and secondary data. The research location was in Greater Malang consisting of 3 (three) local governments, namely Malang City, Malang Regency, and Batu City. The IGR model was produced by using an interlocal relation and state-local relation approaches. The determinant factors in the IGR model included legal consideration, human resource, and financial. Through this model, it is illustrated the relation pattern of the policy process that takes place between local governments in Greater Malang. The intergovernmental relation policy is one of the most effective alternative strategies to be implemented in Greater Malang to strengthen the regional economy, especially during the current Covid-19 pandemic.
