Regional income disparity in Indonesia: a panel data analysis

Since the beginning of the 1990s, the disparity of income per capita across regions in Indonesia has become a crucial topic. From then onwards, regions that fell behind started showing their dissatisfaction with the central government, demanding larger income transfers and greater authority in constructing their development plans. Rapid political change finally took place a few years after the economic crisis of 1997: Indonesia drastically shifted from a highly centralistic government system to a highly decentralized one in 2001 (Alm, Aten, and Bahl 2001; Tadjoedin, Sjuharyo, and Mishra 2001; Balisacan, Pernia, and Asra 2002). Yet the issue of regional income per capita disparity has not disappeared, and the reasons for this have not yet been discovered. Figure 1 shows that income per capita disparity, measured by coefficient variations of GDP per capita, has remained relatively the same throughout the 1990s as well as throughout the decentralization era. .Printed journal
