Abstract
Like other developing countries, the Philippines aims for balanced spatial development. This paper investigates the pattern of sub-regional disparities by applying the global Moran I and local Moran Ii test statistics on land values data for 1986–2000. Overall, both provincial and city land values diverge spatially. Local clustering of land values is found only within and around Metro Manila. While the results suggest persistent agglomeration economies during the decentralization period, partly because of bias in the fiscal transfer system, they also indicate that other government policies were effective in promoting land values immediately outside Metro Manila.
期刊介绍：
Review of Urban & Regional Development Studies (RURDS) focuses on issues of immediate practical interest to those involved in policy formation and implementation. Articles contain rigorous empirical analysis, with many emphasizing policy relevance and the operational aspects of the academic disciplines, while others focus on theoretical and methodological issues. Interdisciplinary and international in perspective, RURDS has a wide appeal: in addition to scholars, readership includes planners, engineers and managers in government, business and development agencies worldwide.
