Abstract : This paper exploresthe relationship of income inequality withtax policy, globalization and technological
development of Indonesia. The analysis also includes a number of control variables that can be important causes of
inequality, that aregrowth of GDP per capita, government expenditure for education, education enrollment, interest rate and
inflation. As a part of ASEAN and in order to have a large data, the author estimates by using panel data techniques for
ASEAN countries over the period 1995-2014, that focuses an analysis on Indonesia. Overall, the result suggests that the
increasing of individual tax rate, FDI and internet access have been responsible for the increasing of income inequality in
Indonesia. In the other hand, the raises of corporate tax rate and trade policy seem to have been more favorable to equality.
Other factors, including the raising of GDP per capita growth, government expenditure for education, education enrollment
and interest rate can be the solution for reducing inequality.
