Gerbangkertosusila

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gerbangkertosusila or Gerbangkertosusilo refers to Surabaya Metropolitan Area, East Java.

Definition[edit]
Gerbangkertosusila is an official acronym of "Gresik Bangkalan Mojokerto Surabaya Sidoarjo Lamongan", a
main metropolitan or planning area in East Java consisting of the seven cities and regencies with those names
(Mojokerto is both a city and a regency).[1][2] This acronym corresponds with the definition of "Zona Surabaya
Pengaruh Raya" or Extended Metropolitan Area.[1] It has an area of 5,925.843 km2, and at the 2010 Census had
a population of 9,115,485.
One definition, by the East Java Provincial Regulation No.4/1996, equates Gerbangkertosusila with
the Surabaya Metropolitan Area surrounding Surabaya, entirely in East Javaprovince, Indonesia.[1] This region
as an "urban" economic planning area.
The national government regards the Surabaya Core Metropolitan Area as including only
Surabaya, Sidoarjo Regency, and Gresik Regency, known as "Zona Surabaya Raya".[3]Gresik Regency
contains the Bawean Island, some 196 km2, which is not part of the built up area but is nevertheless included.
Surabaya traditionally constituted Indonesia's second-largest metropolitan area, after Jakarta, but fast
growing Bandung (in West Java) is now more populous. However, the extended metropolitan area of Surabaya
is second in Indonesia only to Jabodetabek, hence Surabaya's nickname as "second city".
Gerbangkertosusila borders the Malang Metropolitan Area (Malang Raya) to the south. Together the two
comprise 12.5 million people.
