However, where state-led space production is globalized, citizens- led space production is localized. Hence, instead of the global urban aspir ations of local elites, which\nreference global urban forms and metropolita n urban vision, the urban aspirations of local residents are always local, rooted in place and time. This process of localization enables urban citize ns to cope with the spatial transformation due to urbanization present in m odern cities in Southeast Asia. This results in tensions between the govern ance and the everyday practice in urban space. These tensions produce urban porosity, which can be understood as ambiguity of the built urban environm ent where functions and use of space are not fixed but fluid. Interrupted b y borders and thresholds, which can be crossed, forgotten empty spaces and voids provide openness, accessibility and mobility, as well as space for in novation and\nnegotiation. While spatial porosity can be found in every urb an space in Southeast Asia, it is especially prevalent in peri-urban spaces where continuous changes open and close access to space. In this porous ur ban landscape, urban citizenship emerges as the sum of everyday practices a nd the emerging urban identity, which is localized in the city and at the s ame time connected to the global discourses and ideas. This panel hence loo ks at the porosity of urban space prevalent in Southeast Asia through the l ens of urban governance and urban citizenship to better understand how spat ial transformation, urban governance and practices of participation interac t in urban Southeast Asia.
