Buat yang sedang penelitian dan kesulitan data....
Bank Dunia sudah mengratiskan data-data statistiknya, dimana sebelumnya untuk
data-data tertentu harus bayar...
Salam hangat,
The data can be accessed here --> http://data. worldbank. org/
April 20, 2010—The World Bank Group said today it will offer free access to
more than 2,000 financial, business, health, economic and human development
statistics that had mostly been available only to paying subscribers.
The decision─part of a larger effort to increase access to information at the
World Bank─means that researchers, journalists, nongovernmental organizations
(NGOs), entrepreneurs and school children alike will be able to tap into the
World Bank's databases via a new website, data.worldbank. org.
Experts say the Bank's open data initiative has the potential to stimulate more
evidence-based policymaking in developing countries by bringing more
researchers and innovative analysis into the development process. The move is
also likely to stimulate demand for data and increase countries' capacity to
produce it, they say.
And, for the first time, data will be available in languages other than
English, with an initial 330 indicators translated into French, Spanish and
Arabic.
“It’s important to make the data and knowledge of the World Bank available to
everyone," World Bank President Robert B. Zoellick said. "Statistics tell the
story of people in developing and emerging countries and can play an important
part in helping to overcome poverty.”
