The strategies, processes and performance indicators employed by the Ministry refer to the Minister of Social Affairs Regulation No. 111HUK2009 on Social Welfare Development Performance Indicators. Performance indicators for the services of childcare institutions are summarized in Table 5.10. To support the efforts of social services provision delivered by social care institutions for children and other population groups, the Ministry of Social Affairs implemented the Subsidy Programme for Social Care Institutions Program฀ Subsidi฀Panti established by private institutions and communities that actively provided social services to disadvantaged people including children. The subsidy programme was a continuation of the same programme that had been conducted in the previous five years. Under the same initiative, the Ministry of Social Affairs aimed to revitalize the social care institutions that were operating under its authority prior to regional autonomy decentralization. As part of the social rehabilitation programme, the Ministry of Social Affairs conducted social service activities for children and was essentially tasked with restoring the main function of childcare to families.

These activities were conducted by both central and local governments. Another important programme that reflects the new approach adopted by the Ministry of Social Affairs is the Social Welfare Programme for Children Program฀Kesejahteraan฀Sosial฀ Anak, PKSA. The implementation of the PKSA programme was based on Presidential Instructions Nos. 12010 and 32010 on the Acceleration of Implementation of the National Development Priorities, which stated that it is necessary to improve social assistance programmes for abandoned children, children living or working on the street, disabled children, children facing criminal charges, and children with special needs for protection. The PKSA is intended to cover these vulnerable children whether they remain with their families or not. The programme implementation general guidelines are detailed in the Ministry of Social Affairs Decree No. 15A2010, which defined the PKSA programme as “intensive, comprehensive and sustainable efforts by central and local governments and the community in the form of social services to fulfill children’s essential needs, which include their basic needs, access to basic services, and access to empowering child welfare institutions.” The PKSA has five objectives: 1 increasing the responsibility of parents, families and the community; 2 improving the services coverage and quality; 3 increasing the role of child welfare institutions; 4 improving the performance of social workers; and 5 improving the regulations on child social welfare BAPPENAS, 2010. The programme has three forms of assistance, as follows: 1. A cash transfer of IDR6,000 per day.

The total amount of the transfer is IDR6,000 x 30 days x 10 months = IDR1,800,000, in a one-time transfer. 2. A remedial course for children with special educational needs who have a high risk of dropping out of school due to academic issues. The source of funding for this remedial course is from the cash transfer or from institutional operational costs. 3.

5.5.2 Institutional setting and budget

Responsibility for the provision of institutional social care is divided between the provincial and district governments according to the Minister of Social Affairs Regulation No. 1292008 on the Minimum Service Standards SPM for Social Affairs of provinces and districts. According to this regulation, provincial and district governments are obligated to provide appropriate facilities at each level. The regulation also detailed performance indicators for the implementation of government social services. As many as 80 per cent of social institutions, at both provincial and district level, should be able to provide social welfare services. This target is to be achieved gradually over seven years between 2008 and 2015, financed from local government revenue and expenditure budgets APBD. Within the Ministry of Social Affairs’ budget plan, most of the funds for social care institutions were allocated as part of the budget for the Social Rehabilitation Programme in the Directorate General for Social and Rehabilitation Services. In 2010 the budget allocation for the Social Rehabilitation Programme was IDR 0.625 trillion, with a planned increase to IDR 1.55 trillion in 2014.
