Foreword
It is known to the world that Indonesias economy is one of the countries that actually have the
ability to grow well. After a decade of painful restructuring for banks and companies,Indonesian businesses are spending on new factories and on the country infrastructure. Annual
imports of things like machinery and mechanical equipment are growing at double-digit rates.
Indonesia's economic growth remained stable and was able to withstand the economic turmoil
that hit the United States (U.S.) in 2008, and Europe which was started from the Greece
economic downfall in the last quarter 2009. Even though there were several public fears on the
global recession, and Indonesias economy was down for some times, but the economy
managed to get up and survived the economic turmoil. Quoted by AntaraNews, the Executive
Director of Economic Research and Monetary Policy of Bank Indonesia, Perry Warjiyo said in
2012, Compared to other countries in the world, our economic growth rank in second, right
after China. Bank Indonesia officially cited that Indonesias economic growth in 2012 reached
6.3 percent, and Chinas growth was 7.8 percent.
Following the fact that Indonesia is believed to have a great growth in the economy, I would
like to discuss about Indonesias recent progress in economy using five-year time frame, starts
from 2007 through several economic indicator.
The first indicator is the Gross Domestic Product. As an aggregate measure of total economic
production for a country, GDP represents the market value of all goods and services produced
by the economy during the period measured, including personal consumption, government
purchases, private inventories, paid-in construction costs, and the foreign trade balance (add
export and deduct import). Presented quarterly, GDP is often presented on an annual percent
basis. Most of the individual data sets will also be given in real terms, meaning that the data is
adjusted for price changes, and is therefore net of inflation. Another good thing about GDP is
that it is comprehensive and detail. Reading and understanding a GDP report of a country gives
us the look on how the economic system in that country works. The second will be the capital
market. This will cover the facts on investment, government securities, bonds, and other
securities. The third will be the level of inflation rate through months on the five-year time
lapse (2007-2011). Some people may think that inflation is bad because as the prices rise,
peoples ability to purchase will falls. But actually, inflation is a sign that the economy of a
country is growing. When the level of inflation is expected, or anticipated, it has a positive
influence in driving the economy to go better. People are tend to work harder to get bigger
wage, and then they will save the money, and hold on investment. It would eventually increase
the national income.

CHAPTER 1
Indonesia economy 2007
Marking 10 years after the huge crisis happened to Indonesia, Indonesia was finally managed to
increase the economy growth to surpassed 6 percent on the year 2007.
In the GDP of 2007 calculated by industrial origin, the increasing nominal numbers on each
sector were relatively small. Sector of transport and communication had the largest growth ratein the year of 2007. But, to the overall 6.3 percent growth of the economy, the contribution of
transportation and communication sector was only 1 percent out of 6.3 percent. While the
trade, hotel, and restaurant sector growth had the contribution of 1.4 percent out of 6.3
percent, despite the growth rate on the sector of trade, hotel, and restaurant was only 8.5
percent.

Meanwhile, from the expenditure calculation, the highest contributor of the 2007 economic
growth in Indonesia was the export. This was a good thing since exports were increasing, even
though the imports were also increasing. There also was 5 percent growth in the private
consumption. This was a great increase since the 2006 GDP stated that the private consumption
growth were merely 3.2 percent. This was a good trend since it showed that the private
purchasing power was increased.
In the year of 2007, there was an increase in the matter of employment. Taken from the BPS,
number of people in the labor force stated in August 2007 was 109.9 million. It was increasedfor about 3.6 million compared to August 2006.

The expanding labor force was then occupied by increased numbers of employed or working
people. In August 2007, the total employed population mounted by 4.5 million compared to
August 2006.
The inflation rates throughout the months on the year of 2007 were relatively stable at around5 to 6 percent on the first look.
On the second look, it was noticeable that after the month of July 2007, the levels were slightly
higher than it were before July 2007.

CHAPTER 2
Indonesia economy 2008
The year 2008 was a tough time. It was the year where the economy of the one powerful
country United States of America hit by a recession. In America, the crisis started in the home
mortgage market, especially the market for so-called subprime mortgages, and was spreading
to prime mortgages, commercial real estate, corporate junk bonds, and other forms of debt.
Total losses of U.S. banks could reach as high as one-third of the total bank capital. The crisis
has led to a sharp reduction in bank lending, which eventually caused a severe recession in the
U.S. economy. And in the second semester of the year of 2008, the biggest investment banking
in the United States called Lehmann Brothers collapsed.
Even though the exposure of Indonesias banks and financial institutions to global assets were
limited, the impact of the economic recession still domestically felt. Since Indonesia was a
country with small open economy, this global economic turmoil led to several downturns in the
economy of Indonesia. There were two types of effects that were took place to the Indonesia
economic condition: direct effect, and indirect effect.
First, the direct effect. The direct effect of the global economic recession was the downfall of
payment balance. Due to the recession, the purchase power of public America decreased. The
decreasing power of purchase affected the decreasing number of imported products from
Indonesia. From here, exported products from Indonesia also decreased.
In the capital market, Indonesia experienced intense pressure from the spread of the global
economic recession. The value of stock issuances increased significantly at the beginning of the
year, but then falls at the end of the year. Similar thing happened to the government bonds
market. The government bonds market experienced pressures which then increased the yield.
Eventually, the target for government bonds issuances was not accomplished. But this did not
affect the APBN due to the low realization of government expenditure.
The stock market performed well in the first semester of 2008, but then it went down on the
second semester of 2008. External fluctuations in the financial markets triggered the slide inComposite Index. In the beginning of the year of 2008, Composite Index was 2,830. And at the
end of the year of 2008, the Composite Index was 1,355. The stock trade and the Composite
Index (IHSG) experienced a strong pressure which then caused the IDX to suspend all the trade
on October 2008. Also on October 2008, Indonesian Capital Market and Financial Institution
Supervisory Agency issued new regulations regarding buyback. The government tried to
encourage BUMN to buyback through profit provision.

This fast pace of the downfall was encouraged by not only the structure of the domestic
financial market that has been integrated with global financial market, but also the high
number of foreign investors invested in the stock market of Indonesia. The loss in the global
financial market caused them to experienced low level of liquidity which then caused them to
deleverage their investments in the financial market of Indonesia.
At the end of 2008, IDX issued another policy that mandated the reporting of stock transactions
and the closing of cash market transactions to reduce huge price disparities with the regular
market. To restore investor confidence, IDX requested a number of issuers to publicly expose
fair information regarding the conditions of the issuer.

Second, the indirect effect. The indirect effects from the global economic crisis to the economy
of Indonesia was the decreasing percentage of economic growth level (as stated by the GDP),
where when 2007 was 6.3 percent, and in 2008 was 6.1 percent.
Another thing that affected by the crisis was the inflation rate. In 2007, we see that the inflation
rate maintained at below 8 percent throughout the whole year with 6.95 percent as the
highest. While in 2008, the inflation rate exceeded up to 12.14 percent in the month of July of
2008.

This increasing inflation level was triggered by the increasing of the price of world commodities,
especially oil and foods. The increasing in price of oil and foods affected the price in Indonesia
that was determined by the government (administered price) along with the government policy
of increasing the price of subsidized fuel oil. After the month of September of 2008, the
inflation level was started to decline. This was caused by the decreasing price of worldcommodities, foods, and energy. Another thing that caused the inflation started to decline was
by the government policy of decreasing the price of solar fuel and premium fuel on December
2008, and the productions of domestic foods were relatively great. Through all the inflation in
the start of the second semester of 2008, deflation of 0.04 percent was actually occurred at the
beginning of the month of December 2008. This deflation was caused by the decreasing of price
level on the sector of transportation, consumptions, and financial services. The successful
efforts to gradually decrease the level of inflation were inseparable from the efforts of
government authorities to mitigate the expected acceleration of inflation which was
significantly increased after the increase in price of oil and fuel.

CHAPTER 3
Indonesia economy 2009
Global economic was trying to recover from the earlier recession. The good thing was the
recovery was moving at a fast pace. Along with the global economy recovery and improvement,
Indonesia, following the global, was also recovering from the previous downfall. Various
policies were created by the government and Bank Indonesia. Some policies were aimed at
restoring confidence among economic agents both in the financial and non-financial sectors,
overcoming the liquidity tightness in the banking system and strengthening economic growth
momentum. Other policies were also implemented to maintained financial system resilience
and monetary stability, in order to support sustainable economic growth.
Some challenges for the Indonesia economy in the year of 2009 was the continuing pressure of
global economics recession in the year of 2008. The effects were quite big on the beginning of
the year 2009, where the impact of 2008 global economic recession still shadowing the
economy of Indonesia. As a result, pressures continued on monetary and financial system
stability in the first quarter of 2009, and economic growth remained in downward trend due to
a deep contraction in exports of goods and services. In the year of 2008, the economic growth
level was in 6.1 percent, while in 2009 the economic growth level was 4.5 percent in this year.

During the year of 2009, every sector in the economy grew. The highest growth happened in
the transport and communication sector.
The inflation level in Indonesia on the year of 2009 was the lowest Indonesia ever noted. In the
year 2009, the lowest inflation level was 2.41 percent occurred in the month of November
2009.
This number of inflation level was half of what the government had predicted before which was
around 5 percent, due to the global economic crisis in the 2008. This low inflation rate was
caused by the occurrence of deflation for the goods and services which the prices were
controlled by the government, such as fuel and electricity. And the deflation was already
occurred at the beginning of December 2008 as mentioned on the previous section.
In the capital market, the potential improvement showed up during the second quarter of the
year 2009. The improvement was in line with renewed short-term capital inflows fuelled by
more buoyant perceptions among global financial market actors. On the second semester of
the year 2009, permanent improvement occurred. Things that caused this were the
continuation of short-term capital inflows from foreign investors who are buying rupiah
instruments, such as stocks, government securities and SBIs. The second half of 2009 was
marked as the heavy foreign buying of government securities and SBIs. This caused the raising
in the foreign ownership position to 11.3 billion US dollars for government securities, and to 4.7
billion US dollars of SBIs in December 2009. Or about 41.6% increase in government securities,
and 510.4% increase on SBIs at the end of the year of 2008.
In addition, the financial account surplus in the second half of 2009 also resulted from the
increased in direct investment, particularly residents overseas investments, which was
recorded as surplus, while it was always recorded as deficit on previous periods. This surplus
was generated by the issuance of foreign currency bonds by private companies operating

through overseas subsidiaries, with the funds from these issues then channeled into loans to
their parent companies in Indonesia.
Said by the Acting Governor of Bank Indonesia, Darmin Nasution, Through the struggle that
began in the final quarter of 2008 and beginning of 2009, we overcame that difficult year with a
number of achievements that we are entitled to feel proud of. The resilience of our economy
was more than satisfactory in response to wild fluctuations and widespread uncertainty in the
global economy. With growth reaching 4.5% in 2009, Indonesia gained entry into an exclusive
group of a few countries that managed positive growth.

CHAPTER 4
Indonesia economy 2010
Another global economy problem occurred in the year 2010. The recovery of global economy
that started in 2009 went on slower pace because of the Europe crisis. Started from fourth
quarter of 2009, Greece economic performance experienced downfall. And the economic
problem spread across European Union countries. Nevertheless, debt crisis in some European
countries and high unemployment rate in advanced countries led to a weakening of the global
economic recovery. But, economic recovery in emerging countries continued strong, reflecting
an imbalance in the speed of the recovery between advanced and emerging economies of
countries. The speed up of global economic growth caused the commodities price to increase.
World demand for oil increased and triggered significant increase in oil prices. Thoroughly, the
increased in global commodity price and global demand led to a rise in global inflation. From
the global inflation, the effect that took place to the economically emerging countries was a
higher inflation.
In Indonesia, the highest inflation level exceeded the targeted level. Inflation level reached 6.96
percent in the month of December 2010, while the targeted level by Bank Indonesia and the
government was about 5 percent.
The cause of this increasing inflation level was because the increasing level of price of foods,
due to weather uncertainties. The weather uncertainties cause the agricultural sector to
decrease the productions. The most famous agricultural and economic problem in 2010 was the
price of sembako (primary foods). Another thing that intrigued the increased level of price was
the increasing level of price of crude oil in the world market. Domestically, the increased price
7/28/2019 Progress on Indonesia Economy

of crude oil increased the price of cooking oil, which until now also still included in primary life
need. With all those increases in level of price, inflation level in the group of food increased to
2.81 percent in the month of December 2010.
Below is the list and level of inflation on commodities in Indonesia.
As we can see, that the commodity that highly contributed on the level of inflation was the
price of rice which was 1.29 percent. Price of rice was followed by price of electricity which was
0.36 percent, and price of red chili which was 0.32 percent.
The economic growth showed on GDP of 2010 was 6.1 percent. There was an increase in
growth of economy.

The highest level in the economic growth was still transportation and communication sector.
But a significant rise was occurred to the manufacturing sector, whereas in the 2009 wasmerely 2.2 percent, and in the 2010 was 4.5 percent.

CHAPTER 5
Indonesia economy 2011
In the year 2011, the global economic recovery once again slowed down by the effect of the
worsened debt crisis in the European Union, and the slow pace of economic recovery in the
United States of America. This economic problem not only affected the advanced economies,
but also the emerging market economies. But even though with many pessimistic events
occurred on the global economy, Indonesia remained cool and showed the world that the
economy of Indonesia is strong enough to not to be affected by the global economic turmoil.
Instead of a downfall, Indonesia economy managed to rise in the year 2011.
At the edge of the year 2010, many economists believed that the Indonesian economic in the
year 2011 would be better than in the year of 2010. The government already stated that the
growth of economy will be around 6.4 percent. And it did.
Indonesia managed the economy growth level to the level of 6.5 percent. The highest level of
growth still happened in the sector of transport and communication, and the manufacturing
sector reached its highest growth rate in the last five years, which was 6.2 percent in 2011. High

domestic and external demand, added by the increasing conducive investment climate
improved business optimism in the manufacturing sector.
The increasing in economic growth caused the employment condition to rise as well. Reported
by BPS, open unemployment rates dropped from 7.1 percent in 2010 to 6.6 percent in 2011.
The increasing level of employment was caused by improvement in the manufacturing sector.
And the improving manufacturing sector, which absorbed and still absorbs many formally
employed and highly educated workers was supported by the improvement in the formal
sector with more sustainable economic structure.
Following the trend in 2010, inflation started with a high level on the early months of 2011. Thelevel was exceeding the 7 percent.

At the first quarter of 2011, high inflation occurred in group of foods and primary needs
following the year 2010. But actually, the expected inflation was also high. This was the
government policy to rationalize the usage of subsidized fuel. After that, the inflation level
keeps declining because of the harvesting season. The decrease in inflation level was supported
by the deflation in group of food that took place during the February-April period in 2011.

Conclusion
Since the year of 2007 up to 2011, the biggest contribution in Indonesia GDP based by industrial
origin has been the sector of manufacturing industry. Though the number may vary, but it is stillthe biggest contributor. This showing that the manufacturing industry of Indonesia had been
improved and still improving up until now. It is said that the manufacturing industry is the main
support of industrial development of a country. And Indonesia managed to develop its
manufacturing industry. Increasing in the growth rate of manufacturing sector is a result of the
increasing demand from domestic public, particularly the demand on metals, foods, chemicals,
and automotive spare parts. Domestic demand seems as not affected by the global financial
crisis and grew by 6.4 percent in the first half of 2012.
Investment and consumption also still grow despite all the crisis happened in the world. It is
reported by the BKPM (Indonesia Investment Coordinating Board) in 2012, that the investment
activities by the foreign investors were keep on increasing. Reported by BKPM, on the second
quarter of 2012, the foreign investment activities reached up to $1.2 billion, which was
increased by 62 percent from the previous year. Many big companies of textiles, clothing, and
footwear who located their factories in China were expected to move their manufactory
operations to Indonesia because of the increase in labor costs in China. Numbers of Japanese
automotive companies were also planning to expand their network of suppliers to Indonesia,
and it is expected to increase the profit of Indonesias automotive industry.
Quoted by the worldbank.org, The World Bank Country Director for Indonesia, Stefan Koeberlesaid, Indonesia could potentially boost its global market share in manufacturing, create
millions of new jobs and facilitate structural transformation. But riding on the back of domestic
and international demand is not enough. To improve overall competitiveness and sustain
growth, the government and private sector need to overcome the main challenges in the
manufacturing sector.1
