Abstract

Abstract As part of Asia Flu Cap project, the stakeholder analysis of H1N1 pandemic response in Indonesia aims to identify stakeholders’ capacity strengths, gaps, and constraints in response to influenza pandemic threat. Eighteen stakeholders associated with H1N1 pandemic response were interviewed between June-August 2010. Have experienced with SARS and H5N1, the availability of pandemic preparedness/response strategies, pandemic standard operational procedure and case management guidelines, preparedness of 100 referral hospitals, health center, referral laboratories, international airport border control, and other facilities were Indonesia’s capacity strengths. However, there was management gap of Avian Influenza (AI) control and pandemic preparedness/response between national, province, district, and city committee. In addition, complicated procedures of budget approval and slow disbursement for pandemic preparedness and implementation were identified as constraining bureaucracy. Through experiences with H5N1, Indonesia has built a better organization governance, trained human workforce, and resources to handle H1N1 pandemic.
