Abstract
In order to minimize possible economic and social problems in the future, Indonesia need to lower the fertility to TFR of 2.1 per women. This research tried to seek variables that could be used to control TFR. It is expected that by managing socioeconomic variables, the age at first marriage rises and the birth interval could be shortened, therefore TFR of 2.1 could be achieved. Data from Indonesia Demographic Health Survey (IDHS) 2007 is used. Based on Partial Least Square (PLS) regression result, this research suggest that to achieve TFR of 2.1, the age at first marriage should be increased from national current age at first marriage of 19.8 years old to 23.7 years old, whereas the birth interval is preferably to be increased from current national birth interval of 54.6 months to 60 months.
