1. INTRODUCTION

I. L Background Although Indonesia has made significant steps forward regarding poverty reduction over the

decades, many of gains are still fragile and need further strengthening of the efforts to reduce the number of people falling below the poverty line. The Gar, in response, had been set up an overall strategy on local economic development and poverty reduction based on the National Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP-N: Strategi Nasional Penanggulangan Kemiskinan), which contain the following four major policy measures as implementation approach:

(1) Broadening oppOliunities. The Government, together with the private sector and the community, create job and business opportunities for poor people.

(2) Community empowerment. The Government, the private sector, and the community empower the poor people, and as a result the poor will regain their economic, social and political rights, control any decisions related to them, express their aspirations, and identify their own problems and needs.

(3) Capacity buildillg. The GovernmenL, the private sector, and the community build the capacity of poor people, so the poor will be capable of working more producti vely and fighting for their interest.

(4) Social protection. Thc Government, through public policies, requests the private sector and the community to provide protection and security for poor people, especially the most disadvantaged people (the indigents, the elderly, neglected children, the disabled) and poor people resulting from natural disasters, economic crisis and social conflict.
