This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indonesia's gross domestic product growth rate declined significantly after the Asian financial crisis (AFC) of 1997–1998. The country's potential and balance-of-payments growth rates are only about 5.5% and 3%, respectively. One important reason is that the country's industrialization pace declined after the AFC. Today, Indonesia is still exporting many unprocessed natural resources and simple manufactures (not complex products) with a low income elasticity of demand. This report analyzes how Indonesia's manufacturing sector could diversify and upgrade during 2020–2024 and beyond. This is essential if Indonesia is to attain upper middle-income status as soon as possible. Policy makers and the private sector need to collaborate to identify the coordination failures that hamper the discovery of those products that Indonesia could successfully produce and export. These must be complex products with a high income elasticity of demand. The report proposes a number of policies to expedite this process.
Download or read book Indonesia s Strategic Role in The G20 Expert Perspectives written by Hendri Saparini, SE., M. Phil., Ph.D. and published by PT Core Nusa Perkasa. This book was released on 2022-10-27 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, Indonesia has held the presidency of the G20, a forum formed to find joint solutions to global economic conditions. This forum, which represents 80% of the world economy, 75% of international trade, and two-thirds of the world's population, certainly determines the direction of world economic policy. Indonesia as the only representative country from ASEAN which is a member of the G20 as well as a developing country can play a role in encouraging and determining the direction of discussion in the interests of developing countries. In addition, Indonesia has the opportunity to encourage the world's collective efforts to realize policies that can accelerate global economic recovery inclusively and sustainably. Important agendas related to national interests that cannot be separated from global economic governance must also be voiced. The big theme of the 2022 G20 Indonesia Presidency is "Recover Together, Recover Stronger", this theme was translated into various issues in two tracks, namely the Sherpa track and the financial track. As the title of the book, namely "INDONESIA'S STRATEGIC ROLE IN THE G20 ACCORDING TO THE VIEWS OF EXPERTS" this book discusses in detail how Indonesia's strategic role in each of the issues in the sherpa track and financial track. This book raises several issues in the Sherpa Track such as agriculture and food security, energy transition, environmental and climate sustainability, and development issues such as inequality, gender, digital economy, trade, and investment. In addition, there are issues in the Financial Track that are written in this book, namely the issue of debt challenges in countries, especially developing countries, cyber risk, financial inclusion and scarring effects, and exit strategies to recover and recover from the Covid-19 pandemic. This book is the result of a real contribution of economists' ideas on various topics, especially the Indonesian economy, and was prepared in preparation for the G-20 Summit to be held in Bali in November. The diversity of backgrounds of the authors provides a new color and enriches the prospects in presenting leading thinkers to unravel Indonesia's economic problems. As is well known, the Covid-19 pandemic has had a scarring effect on the Indonesian economy, resulting in an increase in unemployment, poverty, and inequality and has caused an economic slowdown. Some of the most impactful sectors are the accommodation and transportation sector, the tourism sector, to Small and Medium Enterprise (SME/UMKM). Even developing countries are expected to suffer more injuries than countries with advanced economies. More serious efforts are needed to support inclusive, fair, and sustainable growth. The policy choices of developed countries to restore the domestic economy created new worries for the world. This is because developing countries have a limited ability to provide policy support which is the factor behind the relatively slower recovery compared to developed countries. Pandemic recovery is proceeding unevenly in each country requiring a different exit strategy, depending on the economic structure, quality of available resources, and governance in making supportive policies. It is very important for all countries to understand the problems facing the world and each country's policy choices for exiting and recovering from a pandemic, not just G20 members. Therefore, Indonesia's presidency at the G20 Summit in 2022 is crucial in overcoming this problem, because the G20 countries with the world's largest economic power must be the prime mover to help developing countries both get out of the pandemic crisis trap and face uncertainty due to various social, economic problems. and politics. The main agenda of the G20 meeting is to encourage cooperation to create an inclusive, strong and sustainable world economic governance. Several agendas that can be agreed on globally such as climate change and green economy, transformation towards digitalization of the economy, global food security and precautionary recovery policies so as not to add to global problems. There must be an understanding from all G20 members that there are problems and solutions that are unique in nature because of the different social, political, economic strengths and challenges in each country. Actually, the concept of green economy is not a new concept. However, recently the world has only recently realized the importance of transforming the global economic approach so that it becomes sustainable. The G20 Forum is a kind of declarator again to encourage the implementation of this concept at the global level. Moreover, G20 countries contribute 80 percent of global carbon emissions and therefore G20 countries must show their seriousness to reduce global carbon by implementing various policies that support carbon reduction efforts. In addition, digital transformation is also a priority agenda in the G20 forum. The Covid-19 pandemic, which has escalated the acceleration of digital transformation, has encouraged the adoption of digital technology by economic actors. During the pandemic, technology has opened up space for online marketplaces and services that are increasingly needed. Even digital businesses run by women entrepreneurs in all developing G20 countries have significantly expanded during the COVID-19 pandemic. The digital-based economy continues to grow and is believed to be one of the drivers of future economic growth despite being faced with various challenges. Even in the issue of world trade, Indonesia needs to voice the importance of reviewing the direction and management of world trade after the Covid-19 pandemic in the G20 forum. The G20 countries need to support a balance between the conventional principles of open trade and the needs of each country to achieve a stronger and more sustainable long-term economic recovery. There are still many other roles for Indonesia in voicing various issues at the G20 forum, so what is Indonesia's other role in promoting an inclusive and collaborative post-pandemic economic recovery for G20 countries and others?

Download or read book National Integration in Indonesia written by Christine Drake and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2019-03-31 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indonesia's great size and diversity and its history of regional dissension have made its struggle for national integration particularly complex. Christine Drake presents an informed and balanced picture of past and present developments in this struggle, offering readers a realistic assessment of the current status and future prospects of national integration in Indonesia. By addressing historical, political, social, and economic issues in conjunction with statistical analysis, Professor Drake argues that the spatial pattern of integration is far more complex than the commonly accepted core-periphery model of Indonesian integration and development. The author examines the effectiveness of Indonesian government policies in promoting national integration and concludes that in general they have led to greater national unity, although many serious problems remain.

Download or read book Two Steps Forward One Step Back written by Damien Kingsbury and published by . This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australians have long worried about whether Indonesia is 'special' or 'normal'. Instead, we need to deal with Indonesia as it really is - a country experiencing simultaneously the challenges of political reform, economic development and a shifting regional security environment. The country's political future is less certain than we would hope: after SBY's term of government ends, the choice of a successor will be critical in determining the future of reform. We can't rule out that Indonesia might slide back to old ways of doing business - democratisation is a fraught process. As the Indonesian economy grows, so too do the prospects for Indonesia to establish its natural position as the leader of Southeast Asia. As the world is re-examining Indonesia, so too Indonesia is looking afresh at the world - more interested in external issues than it was a decade ago. The Southeast Asian subregion increasingly finds itself at the centre of a more strongly interconnected Indo-Pacific region - so Indonesia's strategic importance is going up. It's important for Australia to build a better strategic relationship with Indonesia. The two are complementary partners. Australia should be proactive in exploring new opportunities for cooperation with a reform minded Indonesia - it's in our interests to draw Indonesia into a more important strategic role in regional security.

This book will help you raise emotionally healthy kids who will grow to become mature, well-rounded adults.

Download or read book Early Childhood Education and Development in Indonesia written by Amina Denboba and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 2000s, Indonesia has taken a number of steps to prioritize early childhood development - ranging from the inclusion of Early Childhood Development (ECD) in the National Education System Law No. 20 in 2003 to a Presidential Declaration on Holistic and Integrated ECD and the launch of the country's first ever ECD Census in 2011. These policy milestones have occurred in parallel with sustained progress on outcomes included in the Millennium Development Goals, including for child malnutrition, child mortality and universal basic education. Additional progress could be achieved by strengthening ECD policies further. This report presents findings from an assessment of ECD policies and programs in Indonesia based on two World Bank tools: the ECD module of the Systems Approach for Better Education Results (SABER) and a guide on essential interventions for investing in young children. Results from the application of both tools to Indonesia are used to suggest a number of policy options for consideration.

Indonesia developed rapidly through the late 1990s yet faced a difficult time of adjustment after the Asian financial crisis of 1997–1998. The country has since resumed growth in the last decade. For its part, ADB has widened its activities in Indonesia, transforming from a project-oriented bank into a broad-based development institution. This effective partnership reflects Indonesia’s success in working with the international community in the past 50 years.

Its development challenges, however, remain daunting, and it lags behind other countries in the region in terms of per capita income and achievement of the Millennium Development Goals. This raises the question of how the country can make its economic growth high, sustained, inclusive, and broad-based to more effectively improve its population's welfare. This report identifies the critical constraints to these objectives and discusses policy options to help overcome such constraints.
