Abstract

Indonesia has done remarkably well in the areas of both economic growth and poverty reduction. However, the economic situations differ significantly among Indonesian provinces. Some provinces have already developed well, while the rest have been left behind. The variation in the situations will generate a synthetic long-run time series data of economic development as a whole and enable us to find out when income equality starts to improve in a course of economic development.
