RAND Indonesia Data Core

An online digital library of Indonesian data surveys and documentation with Indonesian originals and English translations.

For users outside RAND wishing to acquire any of the data files from the surveys listed below, please contact the Data Dissemination Division of BPS (https://www.bps.go.id/eng/ for the English version and click on "Service Center" in the left frame). Only the documentation is available to the general public. RAND cannot disseminate BPS data files outside RAND, according to an agreement with BPS.

All surveys are organized by:

  • Questionnaires (each Indonesian page followed by English translation)
  • Documentation (e.g. enumerators manuals)
  • Recommended readings (e.g. paper that describe or have used the data)
  • Summary data link table (summarizing sample period and coverage)

Surveys with multiple years can be accessed through the right-hand navigation bar. Survey or documentation selections will launch the Adobe Reader plug-in in your browser window, which needs to be installed. In some cases, we have not yet been able to translate documentation material from the original. We denote these with NT - not translated.

This Indonesian Data Documentation Website is provided as a public service by RAND for the research community. RAND cannot assume any responsibility or liability for the information provided in this resource.
