This figure shows that income inequality among groups of people tends to be low. This is supported by the Lorenz curve which is not too far from the perfect equalization line. As implication of the conclusion above, it is known that the results of research on income inequality between groups of people tend to be low, therefore it is necessary to have an effort to maintain it so that the level of inequality remains low. However, efforts to increase people's income which are still low are also very necessary so that the level of equal income distribution is not at a low level.
