1. Indonesia’s Advantages are

Double-edged Swords ….

1. The world 4th largest population

(+) Demand & supply base

(ー) Hotbed of poverty and unemployment

2. Demographic bonus (1970s~2030s)

(+) Locomotive of growth

(ー) One chance, hard to catch up after that

3. Rich natural resource endowment

(+) Resource booms repeat

(ー) Dutch disease risk → Discontinuous indus-

trial development cf. East Asia

Rise and Fall of Manufacturing Share

• Under the authoritarian

developmental regime, the

manufacturing share

constantly increased, even

in the oil booms.

• “Full-set industrialization”

(resource-based +

labor- intensive +

capital-intensive industries)

progressed.

• However, In the 2000s

commodity boom,

Indonesia moved to

deindustrialization.Note: Base year of GDP is 2000 up to 2012, and 2010 after 2013.

Manufactured goods

►After the oil boom, exports shifted from crude oil to manufactured goods (5% in 1982 to 59% in 2000).

►In the 2000s commodity boom, manufactured exports decreased to 41% (2010). Minerals (coal), vegetable oil (CPO), and low-processed resources dominated exports.

Challenge 1: From Deindustrialization to Reindustrialization

Sources of Economic Growth

Labor, Capital, and Productivity (TFP)

10

• China’s source of growth shifted from labor to capital, and to productivity.

• Indonesia’s source of growth started from capital, moved to labor. Productivity has made the least contribution. = “The Myth of Asia’s Miracle”

Indonesia shouldfocus on enhancing productivity.

aims at domestic-demand-led investment-led economy

1. Mobilize domestic savings

- Broaden taxation base

- Mobilize financial savings (deposit)

2. Promote investment = Reindustrialization with

higher value added and higher productivity

- Fiscal incentives

- Credit expansion

- R&D promotion

- FDI utilization

3. Reduce business costs (=improve productivity)

- Deregulation, rationalization, simplification

- Improve logistics and infrastructure

3. Assessing the Current Economic Reform

but still needed

?

Conclusion

► Indonesia is amid the phase of critical importance,

an unrepeatable chance of demographic bonus.

► Higher growth accompanied with industrial

upgrading should be pursued. Reindustrialization

with higher value added and higher productivity

would be the key indicator.

► It is crucial to make smart policy intervention in

order to boost domestic-demand-led growth by

mobilizing savings, investing them toward

industrial upgrading, and reducing business costs.

Government efforts of economic reform need to be

more intensified.
