An evaluation was undertaken of four selected social impacts of the
Integrated Urban Infrastructure Development Program (IUIDP) on the
community in three kelurahans in Western Java (Jamika, Warung
Muncang, and Maleber), with particular emphasis on low income people,
using Social Impact Assessment methods. The impacts studied were
changes in employment, household income, land and rental values.
The evaluation suggests that the execution of the IUIDP generated
beneficial as well as adverse effects.
The beneficial effects include that the program created employment
for several residents in the study areas and generally improved the
household income of the residents concerned. Also some benefits have
accrued to a number of land owners as the value of their land
increased. Other benefits identified include improved access, water
supply, sewerage and garbage services.
The adverse effects of the IUIDP include that the government did not
provide either compensation (for those who had to sacrifice their
land) or reconstruction assistance (for those who had to cut back
their property for access routes). Another adverse effect was
experienced by tenants who found their rent increased.
There was a widely held perception among the residents surveyed that,
on balance, the project had been beneficial.
