        "summary": "The Yogyakarta Special Region (DIY) administration is working to align its regional poverty data with the central government's updated desil welfare classification system. Regional Secretary Ni Made Dwi Panti Indrayanti emphasised that the desil determination is a central government authority, while DIY's integrated poverty data provides more detailed local insights. The Statistics Indonesia (BPS) office explained that the National Socio-Economic Data (DTSEN) integrates multiple data sources and is updated quarterly, with desil positions reflecting relative welfare rather than absolute income labels.",
        "content": "<p>The change in the classification of welfare deciles has drawn the\nattention of the Yogyakarta Special Region (DIY) Regional Government.\nDIY Regional Secretary Ni Made Dwi Panti Indrayanti said that\ndetermining deciles is the authority of the central government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat data comes from the central government, not something we\ndetermine. The question is about the criteria and where they fall. How\nthey load and classify that data is something we also need to ask BPS\nabout,\u201d Ni Made said in a press release on Thursday (20\/8) from the DIY\nRegional Government Public Relations office.<\/p>\n<p>According to Ni Made, the DIY Regional Government also has data\ndeveloped through collaboration with district and city governments. This\ndata is integrated into the One Poverty Data system and provides a more\ndetailed picture of community conditions, including welfare groups,\nassistance received, and the forms of intervention that have been\ncarried out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo actually, with that single data system, we can monitor. It is\nalready very detailed in terms of which poverty category, what\nassistance they receive, and what type. It is all visible there,\u201d she\nexplained.<\/p>\n<p>Ni Made emphasised that the data held by the regional government is\nnot intended to be compared with central government data. The various\ndata sources should instead be aligned so that they complement each\nother in providing a picture of community conditions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is not that we want to, what is the term, compare data. But to\nalign data,\u201d Ni Made stressed.<\/p>\n<p>According to Ni Made, strengthening and aligning this data is an\nimportant part of supporting poverty reduction efforts in DIY. Bapperida\nDIY, as the data custodian, continues to collaborate with BPS and\ndistrict and city governments to connect the various data sources held\nby the region.<\/p>\n<p>Acting Head of BPS DIY Endang Tri Wahyuningsih explained that DTSEN\nis a database that integrates social and economic information to support\nmore targeted government policies. DTSEN is built through the\nintegration of various data sources (Regsosek, DTKS, and P3KE enriched\nwith data from PLN, BPJS Kesehatan, etc.) and then matched with\npopulation administration data.<\/p>\n<p>In DTSEN, family data is collected based on relative welfare levels,\nthen ranked and divided into 10 groups called deciles. Decile 1 covers\nthe 10 percent of families with the lowest relative welfare levels,\nwhile Decile 10 represents the 10 percent of families with the highest\nrelative welfare levels.<\/p>\n<p>The determination of decile position considers 41 input variables\ngrouped into Family Identity information, Housing information (condition\nand quality of residence), Asset Ownership, and Family Member\ninformation (education, employment, income, disability, and chronic\nillness, etc.), so deciles cannot be equated with income levels or\nbecome labels that absolutely declare someone rich or poor.<\/p>\n<p>DTSEN is continuously updated and results are available every three\nmonths. As a result, a family\u2019s socio-economic conditions can change and\ndecile positions can also shift following updates and data refreshes\nfrom various sources.<\/p>\n<p>For members of the public who feel their economic conditions do not\nmatch the decile position listed, they can carry out independent updates\nthrough the Cek Bansos application or the Cek DTSEN channel. However, a\nsubmission does not automatically change the decile because the data\nmust first go through a verification and validation process.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, deciles should be understood as a picture of a family\u2019s\nrelative welfare position based on data available at the time of the\nupdate and are dynamic in nature, not as a label permanently attached to\na person or family.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe most important thing is how we jointly maintain data quality so\nthat it can complement each other,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Endang also conveyed that DIY\u2019s economic conditions in general still\nshow good growth. According to her, this condition is part of the\npicture of DIY\u2019s economic development that needs to be continuously\nsupported by the availability of quality data.<\/p>\n<p>On that occasion, Endang conveyed the progress of the 2026 Economic\nCensus implementation in DIY. She hopes that the entire data collection\nseries can proceed according to target and be completed by the end of\nAugust 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Endang invited the public to continue participating in the data\ncollection process by providing correct and complete information. Public\nparticipation is an important part of producing quality data as a basis\nfor development planning.<\/p>",
