Rapid urbanization has come to be recognized as a major aspect of human development for a decade, when globalization increasingly interfered with city development. The mega-urban regions of Southeast Asia are among the world's fastest growing agglomerations, whose growth dynamics both depend on global influence and local strategies contributing to a permanent polarization of urban society. The focus of this article is on the Philippine National Capital Region (NCR), which is analyzed in terms of city development, migration and rural transformation. Special emphasis was put on (international) economic investment in NCR, which dramatically changed the urban employment structure. The interconnections of migration, internationalized economies and family networks for the uprooting of people seem to prove that megacity development is no longer independent of international influence.
