PDRB Concert for Quality Economic Growth Data

In order to improve the quality of Regional Gross Domestic Product data, the Central Java Provincial Statistics Agency (BPS) held a simultaneous consultation on the second quarter of 2025 PDRB on Tuesday–Wednesday, September 2–3, 2025, at the Ibis Style Simpang Lima Hotel. This event served as a forum for reconciling the calculation of the Second Quarter 2025 RDP and as an opportunity for district/city RDP officials to share experiences with the Central Java Provincial BPS Economic and Analysis Team.

The event was opened by the Acting Head of the Central Java Provincial BPS, Endang Tri Wahyuningsih. In her speech, Endang emphasized the importance of strengthening the competence of competent and resilient statistical human resources as one of the current challenges facing the BPS. Maintaining data quality requires reliable human resources, close collaboration with stakeholders, and continuous efforts to improve data literacy among stakeholders.

The Batang Regency BPS also participated in this event, represented by Moch. Choeril (Junior Expert Statistician) and Sri Winarsih (Junior Expert APBN Financial Management Analyst). On this occasion, BPS Batang won second place in the category of survey implementation and PDRB Production Balance compilation, as well as third place in the category of Regional Balance implementation and Statistical Analysis. In addition to being a forum for technical discussion, this event also gave awards to regencies/cities that were considered to have performed well. It is hoped that this recognition will motivate all PDRB officials in districts/cities to produce high-quality PDRB data that is beneficial for regional development.
