unfavourable, disregard/overlook

One English word that covers "kurang menguntungkan" is "unfavourable".

As for "mengabaikan" a range of several alternatives are possible. See the following from KEBI Online:-

* to ignore; to disregard; to be
* inconsiderate
* to neglect
* to overlook
* to disobey (an advice, etc)
* to underestimate (someone's ability, etc)
* to break (a promise, etc)
* to waste (an opportunity, a change, etc)

Which you choose would depend on what the rest of the context suggests.

Explanation (example):
If a small village has insufficient technically educated people, then it is more difficult or impossible to attract higher value-added factories to locate in the village. As such it is more difficult for the authorities to formulate development plans for high-tech industries. So for example, in certain circumstances, this would seem that the small village had been neglected.
