For the Indonesia 2012 DHS country-specific variables SREGMUN SSUBD SVILLAG, are these coded as classified by BPS (Statistics Indonesia) or is it a different coding system?

Thanks,
user-rhs

Dear User,
I am working on getting the most accurate answer I can for you. It should not be more than a day or two. The same country specific variables were used in the Indonesia DHS 2007 survey. I'll get back to you as soon as I have something more on this.
Thank you!

Dear User,
We believe the variables SREGMUN SSUBD SVILLAG follow the same coding schemes used by BPS, the implementing organization. However, we do not publish that information in our final reports.

Additional information about the survey may be obtained from the Directorate for Population and Labor Force
Statistics, BPS, Jalan Dr. Sutomo No. 6-8, Jakarta 10710, Indonesia (Telephone/fax 345-6285, e-mail:
demografi@bps.go.id), or BKKBN, Jalan Permata 1, Halim Perdanakusumah, Jakarta 13650, Indonesia
(Telephone/fax 800-8557, email: pusdu@bkkbn.go.id), or the Institute for Research and Development, Ministry of
Health, Jalan Percetakan Negara 29, Jakarta 10560, Indonesia (Telephone 426-1088, fax 424-3935, email:
sesban@litbang.depkes.go.id).

Thank you!
