This paper investigates the long-term effect of child poverty on labor market outcomes using a 14-year span of data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey. Our instrumental variables estimation shows that a child who lived in a poor family when aged between eight and 17 years old suffers from an 87% earnings penalty relative to a child who did not grow up in a poor family.
The most talented individuals organize production processes, discover, and innovate. These roles make talented individuals more important than ordinary labor. This paper is the first step to understand talented individuals in Indonesia. First, we use an international benchmark to estimate the number of students that could be considered as highly skilled. We then examine their background and the schools that they go to.
