Market management in Dutch East Indies was established by the policy of Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies 1913, the Minister of Colonies Idenburg letter, dated on February 5, 1914, as well as the directives of the Council of the Indies, dated on 4 April 1914. Based on the proposal of the Dutch East Indies government was issued on 06 September 1914 about the Decentralisatie Maarktwezen or decentralized market business. Surabaya was designated as Gemeente (autonomous city) through Staatsblad No. 149 of 1906. As a consequence of the establishment of Surabaya as an autonomous region (Gemeente), several obligations which were initially carried out by the central government were left entirely to Surabaya. One of the matters handed over by management was market management. Market management (bedrijf maarkt) was carried out through the Gemeente about Market Service formed in 1915 including in terms of managing the market environment itself by the Surabaya city government. The purpose of market management was to meet the needs of society as well as structuring locations for the purpose of an environmental regulation market town. The Issues to be observed is Surabaya Gemeente activity in the market management of the city and its environmental management activities.
