Key Takeaways
– Indonesia’s economy continues its reliable expansion, with GDP growth holding at 5.1% in 2025, according to the World Bank — a pace that keeps Southeast Asia’s largest economy on a stable, if unspectacular, trajectory.
– Inflation has cooled dramatically to just 1.9%, giving policymakers rare breathing room and consumers a welcome reprieve from rising prices.
– The labour market shows remarkable tightness, with unemployment at just 3.2% — a figure that suggests the economy is absorbing workers despite global headwinds.
– A trade surplus has returned, albeit modestly, signalling that exports are holding their own even as global demand softens.
– State-owned enterprises are being asked to dig deep, with a commitment to remit Rp 120 trillion to the state budget this year — a sign of fiscal consolidation efforts underway.
