Message

At BPS–Statistics Indonesia, I led a national analysis of disparities and determinants in death-registration completeness across Indonesia using Fractional Response Regression. The findings reached 100+ institutions and were recognised by UN ESCAP as a regional good practice.

I apply statistical and demographic methods to estimate fertility and mortality indicators and assess vital statistics data. I also developed Indonesia’s life tables and modelled population projections for 2020–2050 using Bayesian methods and cohort-component analysis.
