The Indonesian government's policy to move Javanese to other islands in Indonesia was called the transmigration program. The program was initiated in 1950 with the aim of reducing population density in Java and promoting economic development in other parts of the country. Under the program, Javanese families were provided with land and other resources to resettle in other islands, such as Sumatra, Kalimantan, and Sulawesi.
