EasyChair Preprint 556

Abstract

Sabang City is located in Weh Island, Aceh Province, as the end city of western Indonesia. Today it is known as a natural tourist destination, nautical and relics of the Dutch colonial period, the Japanese colonial period which is often found in Japanese bunkers or caves. As an island city, Sabang has a natural seaport with an ideal depth to dock between intercontinental ships that cross the Malacca Strait every day. But why does the city of Sabang not rise its economy, while the interest of foreign tourists seems to be endless to visit Sabang to date. Realizing this, the author will present the research process that is being carried out in relation to Weh Island Spatial Planning.

The supply of goods from abroad has not significantly affected of the environment. Through the Material Flow Analysis analysis, it will greatly assist the control and spatial planning of Sabang City in terms of providing land for the built environment in the urban area of Sabang City. small island is an important asset for the growth of economic activities, especially the tourism sector and seaports in Indonesia.
