Summary
Development basically is a multidimensional process that involves changes in social structure, attitudes of society and national institutions. It includes changes in the rate of economic growth, reduction in income inequality, and poverty eradication (Sinding, 2009). It was illustrated that the impact of the Growth Center strategy differed across the hierarchy suggesting that the expected trickle-down effect around the growth center did not occur evenly. A study conducted by Basile, Capello & Caragliu (2011) the results showed that the effect of geographic and relational proximity on knowledge spillovers strengthened one another; the data clearly showed that the immediate area in terms of spatial to exchange knowledge was easier when having the same level of confidence
