As the world’s fourth most populous country and ASEAN's largest economy, Indonesia constitutes approximately 35% of the bloc’s GDP and has long been an economic powerhouse in Southeast Asia.
Except for a contraction of -2.07 percent for the first time since the 1998 Asian financial crisis due to COVID-19, the Indonesian economy had consistently been growing at an average rate of above 5 percent over the last 20 years, demonstrating its implementation of sound fiscal policies and tremendous potential for growth.
Beyond a stable economy and a large, growing consumer market with millions joining the middle class each year, Indonesia has increasingly come to the attention of foreign investors due to its abundant and tech-savvy workforce, competitive labor costs, and the newly blossoming digital economy.
