Based on data from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) (BPS), the Open Unemployment Rate (OUR) decreased by 0.12% to 5.01% in February 2019. West Java Province had the highest OUR, at 7.73%.
BPS Deputy for Statistics, Margo Yuwono, stated that the high OUR in West Java is influenced by industrial conditions. West Java has a large number of industries, attracting people from outside the province to relocate. This industrial migration has resulted in a decrease in job opportunities.
Other provinces with high OURs include Banten (7.58%), Maluku (6.91%), East Kalimantan (6.66%), and Riau Islands (6.41%). Bali had the lowest OUR, at 1.19%.
