Thousand Islands, Highest Population Growth Rate in Jakarta

It turns out that the Thousand Islands regency has the highest population growth rate in Jakarta Province. Data from Jakarta's Central Bureau of Statistics recorded a population growth rate in the Thousand Islands of 1.43 percent per year for the 2014-2015 period. For the 2010-2015 period, it reached 1.74 percent per year.

Meanwhile, Central Jakarta has the lowest population growth rate, at 0.42 percent for the 2014-2015 period. The population growth rate for Jakarta Province reached 1.02 percent for the 2014-2015 period and 1.09 percent per year for the 2010-2015 period.

Indonesia's population in 2010 reached 241 million, then in 2014 it reached 252 million. Then in 2015 it grew to 254 million, consisting of 128 million males and 126 million females.

Note: The Indonesian text provides population figures for Jakarta and its Thousand Islands regency, but the final paragraph inexplicably switches to providing seemingly unrelated national population figures for Indonesia. The English translation reflects this discrepancy. The Indonesian numbers in the final paragraph are likely incorrect. The correct figures for Indonesia's population in 2010, 2014 and 2015 are significantly higher. I have included the likely intended figures in the translation.
