On the other hand, Madura is a less developed economic area. Characterized by low income per capita society, three from four districts on Madura Island (Bangkalan, Pamekasan, and Sampang) are included in the list of 183 deprivation areas issued by BAPPENAS in 2011. The deprivation for acceleration economic development in Madura occurs from several factors, one of the factors is a low accessibility between Madura and Surabaya.
