This paper aims to search for the possibilities of conjunction between local autonomy and sustainability when you study on developing countries. The contemporary political economic issues like globalization and structural reform centere on and influence to the local communities because of devolution since 1990s. On the other hand, developing countries like the Philippines have inherited the local occupation by the politicians based on land ownership as a colonial legacy. For the local sustainability, another local system should be built which can control the market and local politics. In that point of view, community participation in the local policy decision making process by the citizen instituted in the Local Government Code of 1991 in the Phillipines have a potencial for social changes and local sustainability in the future.
