Talking about Child Friendly Cities (KLA) problem, it will intersect with the regulatory fulfillment of children's rights in the related region. This research focused on the border areas particularly in Tarakan, by knowing the role of Local Government in realizing the region as a Child Friendly Cities. Child abuse is very influential in determining Tarakan city as a Child Friendly City (KLA), and therefore required a regular and continuous efforts to minimize it, and it also required the participation of the community and also the role of government which is manifested in the availability of the funds allocation to provide the protection of the children's rights. This is a big challenge in particular to accelerate the implementation of the children's rights at their parents, community, regency/city, provincial, and national levels in the present and future. If we do not immediately take the initiative and concern for the best interests of the child neglect, children's rights especially growing and developing will be unoptimal, worse it will lead to the loss of a great generation.
