Indonesia are among the highest in South East Asia region.
There are 307 maternal deaths per 1000 births, due to any
birth complications. It means that two mother die every two
hours. There are 46 children of 1000 children die before
they celebrate their 5th birthday. It means that 225,000
children die every year, and 25 children under 5 die every
hour. Management Strengthening and Institution Building for
Local Public Service and Providers (MSIB-LPSP) is program
