The 2021 Report on the Status of Digital Literacy in Indonesia, released by the Ministry of Communication and Informatics and the Katadata Insight Center (KIC), reveals data on digital literacy across Indonesia's 34 provinces.
The report measures digital literacy through four main pillars: digital skills, digital ethics, digital safety, and digital culture.
Yogyakarta achieved the highest score in the digital skills pillar, recording a score of 3.85.
Digital skills refer to an individual's ability to know, understand, and use information and communication technology (ICT) hardware and software, as well as digital operating systems in daily life.
This means Yogyakarta has demonstrated a greater proficiency in understanding various digital technologies compared to other provinces.
Of Indonesia's 34 provinces, 18 achieved digital skills scores higher than the national average of 3.44.
Two provinces scored at the national average, while the remaining 14 fell below the national average. Maluku Utara had the lowest score at 2.93.
