Masalah Kependudukan di Indonesia #Kumer Geografi Kelas XI

Summary

This video discusses various population challenges in Indonesia, including its large population of 279 million, rapid growth of 1.25% annually, and uneven distribution of people, particularly concentrated on the island of Java. The country also faces issues such as a low Human Development Index, high unemployment, poverty, and early marriages. Despite economic growth, per capita income remains low compared to neighboring countries. The video calls for awareness and encourages projects analyzing the causes and consequences of these population issues, with an upcoming focus on potential solutions.

Takeaways
