Poverty and Social Protection in Indonesia (Paperback)

This book consists of papers that present the findings of research
done by the SMERU Research Institute in Jakarta, Indonesia. Most
describe the effects on the poor of the Indonesian economic crisis
of 1997-98 and the response of the Indonesian government in the
form of a Social Safety Net consisting of poverty mitigation
programs. With the gradual recovery of the economy after 2000, the
Indonesian government began reducing subsidies for fuel products
and has channelled budgetary savings into a new series of targeted
social protection and poverty alleviation undertakings that include
unconditional cash transfers. The effectiveness of Indonesia's
poverty alleviation programs has, however, been reduced by the
difficulty of targeting beneficiaries accurately because of a lack
of reliable, up-to-date poverty figures. In many instances
unsuitable targeting methodology has been compounded by bad
governance at the local level, while the introduction of regional
autonomy, accompanied by the decentralization of authority to the
district level, has formed a further complicating factor.
