While the Dakar target stipulates 50% out of illiterate population by 2015, Indonesia has achieved this target by 2009, based on the impressive average illiterate eradication rate of 1,6 million people per year in the last three years. The adult literacy rate in 2011 was 95.5 %. More specifically, the literacy rate for aged of 15-24 years increased from 96.7 per cent in 1992 to 99.53 per cent in 2011.
