ABSTRACT
PIP: The Indonesia family planning program has undergone many changes in policy and strategy. Since 1979 it has shifted emphasis from solely attempting to control population growth, to broadening its scope to include other areas of development. The program concentrates on the most densely populated areas of the country such as Bali and Java, as well as including a nutrition program thereby integrating functions of fieldworkers from the ministries of Health, Agriculture, and Trade and Cooperation. In rural areas, program maintenance has shifted from the government to the community; acceptor groups and women's clubs manage contraception resupply posts. Oral contraceptives are the most widely chosen form of birth control. These were originally purchased from the U.S. but are now being manufactured in Indonesia. Tables are given, showing the decline in fertility rates from 5.5 through the 1960s, to 4.0 in 1974/5. This decline correlates with the expansion of the family planning program.^ieng
