CIVIL REGISTRATION
(1945-2001)
PROCEDURES OF CIVIL REGISTRATION
•
The heads of the villages have to:
– register all members in every household using
household form,
– register vital events, i.e. births, deaths and mobility of
the population, and
– issue identity cards for the adults.
• Births and deaths are registered by place of occurrence
and place of residence.
• Marriage is usually recorded at the place of residence.
ASSESSMENT OF THE CIVIL REGISTRATION SYSTEM
•
Assessment of the civil registration was done through a KAP
survey carried out by the BPS-Statistics Indonesia in 1977,
covering a sample of 2,831 households in Java, North
Sumatra, South Kalimantan, South Sulawesi, Bali and East
Nusa Tenggara.
•
The results of the survey reveal low coverage of the existing
registration (60-70 percent for births and deaths).
•
Obstacles of CRVS found from the survey:
– Weakness in the organization
– Lack of infrastructures
– Lack of awareness in reporting vital events
USES OF REGISTRATION RECORDS
•
•
Registration records for individuals:
–
Birth records provide legal proof of identity and civil status,
nationality etc.
–
Death records provide legal evidence relevant to claims to
inheritance of property, to insurance on deceased persons etc.
–
Marriage records are the basis for application of birth
certificate.
Registration records for goverment:
Birth records used for many purposes such as for basic needs in
public health programs, i.e vaccination and immunization.
VITAL STATISTICS
(1945-2001)
PROCEDURES FOR REPORTING AND MONITORING
•
Civil registration forms produced from village offices
copies together with the summary tables showing the
total number of population of the village classified by
nationality and number of births, deaths and migration,
are sent to Sub-Districts offices.
•
Same tables are made for each level of administrative
units (Sub-District, District and Province) and summary
tables for Indonesia are made by Ministry of Interior.
•
Tables must conform with UN recommendations.
•
Monitoring of reporting process conducted in each
administration unit level.
PROCEDURES FOR STATISTICAL PROCESSING
•
The outputs of this processing are simple tables
showing the total population at the beginning of the
month, births, deaths and movements occured during
the month.
•
The population at the end of the month is obtained by
applying a demographic balancing equation.
•
The processing of the vital registration carried out by
BPS-Statistcs Indonesia at district level.
PUBLICATION AND DISSEMINATION
•
Based on the results of civil registration, BPS-Statistics
Indonesia regularly published "Penduduk Jawa-Madura"
("Population of Java-Madura") and "Penduduk Luar Jawa"
("Population Outside of Java") containing total population
by district, sex, citizenship and age (distinction between
children and adult only).
•
Vital statistics collected by the BPS-Statistics Indonesia
are presented to the users in the form of publications.
ASSESSMENT OF THE VITAL STATISTICS SYSTEM
• Evaluation was made by comparing the vital rates
obtained from the registration system and that estimated
by the applications of indirect techniques (Last Live Birth,
Own Children and Palmore methods for estimating birth
rate, and Brass type method for estimating Infant
Mortality).
• Findings indicate vital rates of some regions in Java are
about 50 percent lower than the rates obtained through
indirect estimates.
USES OF THE VITAL STATISTICS
•
The main consumers of vital statistics are
government institutions such as the Ministry of
Health and National Planning Board (BAPPENAS) for
their planning.
