Executive Summary of Consumption and Expenditure of Indonesia, March 2020

At the end of the 2020-2024 RPJMN period, the government will evaluate all development programs that have been implemented. Then the results will be used as considerations for developing new policies. The policy is certainly expected to be more accurate and optimal in order to improve the welfare of the population. Therefore, data are needed that describe the actual conditions that occur in the community to evaluate past policies. BPS, in this case, plays the role of providing data. Through the National Socio-Economic Survey (Susenas) information on various aspects of meeting life needs such as clothing, food, shelter, education, and health can be known periodically. The data is a source for the calculation of several indicators, such as poverty, income inequality, and food security.
