Around 60% of Indonesia's population was classified as poor in 2024, using the upper-middle-income country poverty line standard.

This is recorded in the World Bank's Macro Poverty Outlook (MPO) report, April 2025 edition.

According to World Bank data, based on gross national income per capita, Indonesia is currently categorized as an upper-middle-income country.

The poverty line standard for this category (upper-middle-income poverty rate) is $6.85 based on purchasing power parity (PPP).

This means that in upper-middle-income countries, individuals with expenditures less than $6.85 PPP/person/day are classified as poor.

Converted using the assumption of an exchange rate of $1 PPP in 2024 = Rp5,993.03, the poverty criterion in upper-middle-income countries is having expenditures of less than Rp41,000/person/day, or below Rp1.2 million/person/month.

Based on this standard, the World Bank recorded that in 2020, 62.5% of Indonesia's population was classified as poor.

The figure then fluctuated, decreasing to 60.3% in 2024, as shown in the graph.

This figure differs from the data of the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), which uses a national poverty line standard of Rp595,200/person/month in September 2024.

Using the BPS standard, the percentage of Indonesia's population classified as poor is only 8.57%.
