Abstract: Human mobility, known as migration, is as old as human history. In modern times, with the development of more effective means of transport and communication, the velocity and the volume of migration have been more rapid and increasing in numbers. One classical demography theory explains this movement through the lens of push and pull factors, considering the pressing conditions at the places of origin and opportunities at the destinations. A phenomenon of human mobility in Indonesia is in-migration to Lampung Province from Jawa Barat. Lampung was the first region in Sumatera Island to move people outside Java supported by the history of the out-migration from Java and Bali Islands to other regions in Indonesia since Dutch Colonization Era. Nowadays, we can find many people from Jawa Barat in society from students to practitioners who have been residing in this province for many years. We explore the reasons for their migration to Lampung Province using FGD to explain the ways the local government could respond and account for people’ interests. From FGD report, they migrated to Lampung province because of education, family, and work. We suggest that the local government shall coordinate with related official governments at the local level and collaborate with public and private sectors to provide public goods and services for the fulfillment of public interests.
