re-size
There is not a food crisis in Indonesia -- at least not yet. But the rise in food prices and other basic goods is hitting the poor the hardest. More than half of Indonesia's 235 million are poor. Many make less than $2 a day. In May, economists warned that rising food prices could reverse gains made in reducing poverty made across Asia. Jonathan Jones and Anna Sussman travel to Jakarta to visit low income neighborhoods, as well as rice wholesale and retail markets, and meet with World Food Program officials to find out how Indonesians have been affected by the rise in global food prices.
