The results of the study are as follows: 1) Collaborative governance in regional development planning is not optimal in terms of the weak implementation of face-to-face dialogue, low mutual trust built between collaboration actors, and lack of public trust in the regional development planning process, as well as lack of mutual understanding with the dynamics of differences in interests in the process of preparing regional development planning; 2) Collaborative governance in development planning is supported by the existence of basic rules in the form of regulations at the central and regional levels as references in regional development planning, the availability of adequate human resources in regional development planning, and the facilitative leadership of the Acting Regional Head who is quite proactive in regional development planning. Meanwhile, the inhibiting factors are the absence of a mechanism to increase community participation and the dynamics of differences in interests in regional development planning.
