In an urban-rural dual framework, this study investigates the roles of education in expenditure inequality in three ASEAN countries (Indonesia, Myanmar, and the Philippines) using data from nationwide household surveys. To reduce overall expenditure inequality, Myanmar needs to reduce expenditure inequalities within educational groups, because unlike Indonesia and the Philippines, expenditure disparities between urban and rural areas and between educational groups were not large. In Indonesia and the Philippines, narrowing urban-rural educational gap could mitigate overall expenditure inequality by reducing urban-rural expenditure disparity. These two countries need to further improve the quality of primary and secondary education and reduce dropout rates particularly in urban areas, thereby raising the enrollment ratio of tertiary education. At the same time, policies that could reduce variations in quality among tertiary education institutions need to be introduced, since expenditure inequality among urban households with tertiary education was relatively high.
