This paper attempts to evaluate government policy to classify a region as a key region (kawasan andalan) with special reference to South Kalimantan province. Using location quotient and logistic regression, we showed that the policy designed and based merely on regional income per capita and key subsector. The policy seems, to ignore the growth of regional income and regional specialisation. Our analysis also suggests that regional classification based on Klassen Typology is a better alternative than that of the ad-hoc "key region". Key words: kawasan andalan, LQ, logistic regression, Klassen Typology

The economic crisis of 1997/1998 greatly affected the national economy of Indonesia by making more people vulnerable to the poverty. To tackle the problems of poverty, Indonesian government has issued some poverty alleviation programs and strategies through national and local budget allocations. The national government has set up some poverty reduction programs, including The National Program for Community Empowerment (Program Nasional Pemberdayaan Masyarakat/PNPM). Beside PNPM, there is a program of Alokasi Dana Desa/ADD that comes from the district budget (local funding). In terms of budget allocation, both central and local government has always increased their support from year to year. This study examines the impact of poverty alleviation programs, including BLM PNPM and ADD on poverty at district level in Indonesia with the case study of Sleman district in Yogyakarta province during 2008-2012. Using trend analysis, Klassen typology and pooled least square analysis, this study generally finds that the poverty alleviation programs do not significantly reduce the level of poverty in Sleman.
