However, there are regions which reluctant to cooperate, especially with the adjacent areas. This method used is the study of literature, this paper will conduct an in-depth exploration of collaborative activities in Selingkar Wilis in East Java Province. Selingkar Wilis consists of six regencies (Tulungagung, Trenggalek, Ponorogo, Madiun, Nganjuk, and Kediri). These areas are provincial strategic areas which will be developed into a new tourism destination. Moreover, according to the preliminary study there are some problems hampering such cooperation, due mainly to regional selfishness. Therefore, this paper shows various regional cooperation models that aims to illustrate the cooperation among regions. These efforts are a must for the better development management among Selingkar Wilis areas. From the results of the study in the model offered for inter-regional cooperation activities, what is appropriate is the joint secretariat, which consists of three components, namely the local government, the private sector, and the daily executive board.
