| dc.description.abstract | There had been some changes of proverty prevention strategy for the government of
the New Order. In the development process, the change of the strategy from economy growth
mthod to the implementation of “Presidential Decree of Underdeveloped Territorial program
(IDT)” actually emphasized on the increased attention to the poor. It was proved that the
combination of various programs could decrease the poverty rate both quantitatively and
significantly. However, because the pattern of the top-down and the future of the charity
remained to dominate on the overall strategy, the poor could not have developed significantly
independent. Thus, poverty prevention strategy in the future must emphasize on the
development of the poor’s creativity, initiative and capability based on the mobilization of the
local resources, so it can make the poor develop and grow independently. In such a way,
continual development will reasonably run. A change of strategy needs the reshuffle of
political structure to democracy. | en_US |
