        "summary": "Indonesia's Central Statistics Agency (BPS) has identified 211 neighbourhood units (RW) in Jakarta as slums based on 2025 data finalised in 2026, using a combination of satellite imagery and field surveys. This marks a significant 52.58% reduction from 445 slums recorded in 2017, as noted by Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung, highlighting progress in urban development. BPS plans to verify an additional 1,904 RW to ensure data accuracy, underscoring ongoing efforts to address urban poverty and infrastructure challenges in the capital.",
        "content": "<p>REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA \u2013 The Central Statistics Agency (BPS)\nrecords that there are currently still 211 neighbourhood units (RW) in\nJakarta that fall into the slum category. This finding was obtained\nbased on the results of data collection in 2025 and finalisation in\n2026.<\/p>\n<p>BPS Head Amalia Adininggar Widyasanti stated that the data collection\nwas conducted using satellite imagery. In addition, her agency also\ncarried out direct field surveys to confirm the existence of slum RW in\nJakarta.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo essentially, we used two approaches. Direct field data collection\napproaches, combined with calibration through satellite imagery\nmethodology,\u201d she said at Jakarta City Hall on Wednesday (6\/5\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>She mentioned that based on the results of that data collection,\nthere are still 211 out of a total of 2,749 RW in Jakarta that fall into\nthe slum category. This result is a combination of field data collection\nand satellite imagery.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTherefore, the identified slum RW are 211 slum RW,\u201d Amalia\nstated.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, she said that BPS will continue data collection on slum\nRW in Jakarta. This is because there are still 1,904 RW that need\nverification of their slum level.<\/p>\n<p>The number has decreased<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung stated that the latest data\ncollection by BPS shows a reduction in the number of slum RW in the\ncapital. This is because, based on 2017 data, the number of slum RW in\nJakarta reached 445 RW.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, there has been a decrease in slum RW from 445 in 2017 to 211\nthis year. The reduction is approximately 52.58 percent,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Pramono also agreed with BPS to deepen the data on around 1,900 RW\nthat have been considered non-slum. This is seen as able to ensure the\naccuracy of existing data.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOverall, in principle, even if there are 1,900 that were previously\nconsidered non-slum, I also agree to deepen it further,\u201d he stated.<\/p>",
