Daftar Isi:
- The involvement of non-governmental sector (NGS), either private (commercial) or social (non-profit) sector, in the provision educational services is quite significant in Indonesia. The establishment of non-public schools in Indonesia is facilitated by the possibility to levy charges for services and subsidies from the Government. Yet, since there is no clear policy about the way in which the Government subsidises non-public schools they are likely to be located in urban and rich localities where reasonable charges or higher subsidies from local governments are possible. Since the level of educational services in cities have been generally higher than in regencies, the NGS involvement in the provision of educational services is potential to increase inequality in the level of services between cities and regencies as well as between rich and poor localities.
