2019 Thee Kian Wie Lecture

Prospek dan Tantangan Ekonomi ke Depan

Sambutan Kunci: Profesor Boediono (UGM)

Panel:

1) Agus Eko Nugroho (P2E LIPI)

2) Profesor Hal Hill (The Australian National University): The Indonesian Economy in Transition - The Jokowi Era and Beyond

Abstract: By any indicator, Indonesia, the fourth most populous nation on earth, is a development success story. Yet 20 years after a deep economic and political crisis, it is still in some respects an economy in transition. The country recovered from the 1997–98 crisis and navigated the path from authoritarian to democratic rule surprisingly quickly and smoothly. It survived the 2008–09 global financial crisis and the end of the China-driven commodity super boom in 2014 with little difficulty. It is now embarking on its fifth round of credible national elections in the democratic era. It is in the process of graduating to the upper middle-income ranks. Yet, Indonesia also faces many daunting challenges — how to achieve faster economic growth along with more attention to environment sustainability, how to achieve more equitable development outcomes, how to develop and nurture stronger institutional foundations, and much else.

3) Arianto Patunru (The Australian National University): Rising Economic Nationalism in Indonesia

Abstract: There has been a widespread concern of rising economic nationalism in Indonesia. Some evidences indicate that protectionism has started to come back in the early 2000s and despite some reform initiatives, economic nationalism is in general amplified under the current administration and might continue to do so in the near future. The presentation examines political-economic factors that might explain the re-emergence of protectionist measures under Joko Widodo’s presidency. The case of fuel and rice are good illustrations of how economic nationalism is detrimental to the poor. It is therefore in Indonesia’s interest to resist the continuing push for protectionist policies.
