According to the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), Indonesia's poorest population is most concentrated in East Java, with approximately 4.23 million people in September 2022. This comprises 1.75 million urban poor and 2.48 million rural poor.

Nationally, the number of Indonesia's poor population reached 26.36 million in September 2022, an increase of approximately 200,000 compared to March 2022.

The national poverty rate reached 9.57% in September 2022, also up from 9.54% in March 2022.

"The increase in the number and percentage of the poor population in September 2013, March 2015, and September 2022 occurred after an increase in the price of basic necessities, as a result of the increase in fuel prices," said BPS in its report, *Poverty Profile in Indonesia*, released on Monday (March 16, 2023).

BPS defines the poor population as those whose average expenditure is below the Poverty Line.

The Poverty Line in September 2022 was set at Rp535,547 per capita per month.

"In September 2022, on average, poor households in Indonesia had 4.34 members. Thus, the average poverty line for poor households is Rp2,324,274 per poor household per month," said BPS.
