Education in Indonesia today is still lagging behind the education of other countries in the world.

In fact,
Indonesia still lags behind neighboring countries, such as Malaysia and Singapore, in the field of
education.

This can be seen from the large number of their population who received education up to college.
Meanwhile in Indonesia, the number of people who receive education is still far behind other countries,
especially in underdeveloped places such as NTB, NTT, Papua, and many other places.

The lag in education in these places is due to the unequal distribution of education in Indonesia. The
government only builds educational facilities in urban areas, especially in Java.

Not only that, the limited number of teachers in these places has also contributed to the further
distance of access to education in the area.

So, education in Indonesia is even more unequal and tends to be left behind so that it has not been able
to compete with other countries in the world.
