Indicators of economy in Indonesia

The essential economic performance of a country is reflected by the gross domestic product, the total of all goods and services sold. Worldwide gross domestic product in 2021 was at about 12,183 USD per capita. GDP in Indonesia, on the other hand, reached USD 4,333 per capita, or 1.186 trillion USD for the whole country. Indonesia is therefore one of the world's largest economies and is currently at rank 16. If this is calculated per inhabitant, taking purchasing power parity into account, then Indonesia ranks 106th in the list of the richest countries.

Inflation in Indonesia in 2022 was around 4.21%. Within the EU, the average in the same year was 9.22 percent. In the United States, it was most recently 8.00%.

The index for perceived corruption in the public sector is 34, which is below average by global standards.

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic

The consequences of the COVID pandemic were not insignificant in Indonesia 2020. Overall, gross domestic product in 2020 fell from 1.119 trillion US dollars to 1.059 trillion US dollars. With a drop of 5.4 percent, the economy in Indonesia suffered more significant losses than other countries. The tourism sector alone slumped by around 81 percent. The unemployment rate rose from 3.6 to 4.3 percent. The country's gross debt increased by 20.6 percent. The inflation rate fell from 3.0 percent previously to 1.9 percent by the end of 2020.

In 2021, there was already a recovery and the gross domestic product increased to 1.186 trillion US dollars (=106.0% of 2019).

Income and purchasing power

The average monthly income in Indonesia is 348 US Dollar per capita. In the USA, the figure is 5,911 US Dollar. However, the prices of consumer goods are also around 66.9 percent lower than in the USA. If you compare income and price levels, the result is a more expensive life in Indonesia than in the United States. The bottom line is that the costs do not offset the lower income, and you get about 82.2 percent less.

However, it is also important to remember that this is a purely statistical model. Both the labor output and the type and quality of the goods received always correspond to the national average on both sides of the equation - so they do not necessarily have to match. Here you can also find an international comparison of cost of living and purchasing power.
