3.3 Problems of measurements and

monitoring at all levels

1. Indicators (disaggregate and by big groups)

2. Data:

GSO (VHLSS + supplementary module on social protection;

Labor force survey..): Timing, accessibilities,..State budgeting data:

Other data sources: Administrative (reliable, timing,

exclusion issues) and inter-linkage

International data

1727/05/2013 17Indonesia, 14 May 2013



3.4 Problems of measurements of SPI, 2009

•Most of the data is based on the 2008 Viet NamHousehold Living Standards Survey (VHLSS) and

other secondary sources (mainly MOLISA, VSS).

•

Since all the current social protection programsand activities, are ‘gender-blind’ and do not

segregate women beneficiaries both as target

groups or participants,•

4. The future of SPI

2227/05/2013 22Indonesia, 14 May 2013



4.1 Plan of Gov to streamline the programs

and policies at operating level (province,

household..) to avoid overleaping and

fragmenting programs1. Simplifying polices and program

2. National standing committee led by Vice Price Minster and

involved by all relating ministries3. At national level: Concentration on MOLISA functions to

monitor SP progress (National SP report, SP indexes) to

Ensuring employment and minimum income

4. At province level: Required integrating policies and programs, more power to implement the programs

2327/05/2013 23Indonesia, 14 May 2013



4.2 Overcome issues of measurements and

monitoring at all levels

1. Indicators (disaggregate to sub-national levels, bygroups, by gender)

State budgeting data

Other data sources: Administrative (reliable, timing,

exclusion issues)

International data: time bound
