Kediri Regency regional development and data initiatives

Overview

Kediri Regency Regent Hanindhito Himawan Pramana has implemented directives to ensure regional strategic projects and priority programs are based on accurate field data. In early October 2026, the Regent focused on reducing stunting rates, noting a decline from 8.04% in December 2025 to 7.47% in August 2026. He emphasized that data must reflect reality to prevent new cases and addressed improvements in health services, education, and infrastructure.

By late October 2026, the administration shifted focus toward reforming poverty data to ensure social assistance reaches the correct recipients. The Regent proposed a bottom-up data collection method involving neighborhood and community heads to correct discrepancies in economic assessments. To support these efforts, the local government is advancing a digital social protection system, with over 54,000 residents activating Digital Population Identity as of October 28, 2026.
