The results show how the static and dynamic location quotient (SLQ & DLQ) analysis were effective to figure out general situation and characteristic of basic and non-basic sector in this region. This composite approach is expected to assist local government and stakeholders in undertaking preliminary evaluation in particularly water, energy and food sectors evaluation to improve their security.
