<br /> <br /> The extent of President Joko Widodo’s government agenda on introducing policies which aim to ease foreign investment and involvement in large-scale infrastructure projects forge a new era in megaproject development in Indonesia. The Jakarta-Bandung High Speed Train megaproject, serving as a strategic national corridor development and solution towards the saturated existing infrastructure transportation, is equipped with various complexities built up not only due its development as a megaproject, but also due to the existing land development climate for procuring infrastructure networks in Indonesia and various indications of land development issues. By benchmarking theories in relation to land development, megaproject development, institutional analysis, and existing regulations in Indonesia, this study aims to explore the land development process in the Jakarta-Bandung High Speed Train megaproject from its initiation till land procurement process through the identification of the exisiting steps, institutions and interactions of institutions involved, and factors that enable and hamper the overall land development process. Through various literature study and semi-structured interviews, descriptive, content, and coding analysis were conducted to show various subprocesses that occur parallel and are influencial to one another within the existing land development process. Furthermore, this study identifies various new institutions and interactions that influence the decision making processes. With the identification of unique institutions that influence how the land development process takes place, this study reinforces the urgency for a more developed and stable planning for megaproject land development that can anticipate the stakeholder and intitution dynamics found on ground. <br /> <br />
