Abstract

Understanding about determinant factors of poverty will help policy maker to ensure
that the poor get benefit from the economic policy. In general, this study aim to
analyze the changes of determinant factors of poverty before and after the
implementation of fiscal decentralization. Using the model, this study found that in
community factor there are some variables have change from 1999 to 2002. One of
these variables is road infrastructure. In 2002 (after fiscal decentralization period),
the quality of road was worse than before so the impact is the poverty was increase.
This study shows that if both central and local government concern with poverty
reduction then they have to notice some sectors such as agriculture, education, family
health, and infrastructure. These variables are the determinant factors of poverty.
