Based on our research we have found some statistics and informations provided by official government websites, which may help you in your plan to invest in Indonesia. Furthermore, we have found that Indonesia grew by 6.2% in 2012 and in 2014, stronger economic growth is expected around the lower end of the 5.8-6.2% range. Future economic expansion is expected to include more inclusive growth as nominal per-capita GDP is expected to quadruple by 2020, according to a Standard Chartered report.

A large part of Indonesia economic success is a result of growing middle class and stable economic growth. Indonesia is in list of MINT economies (Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria and Turkey), namely those that were the most attractive to long-term investors due to their favorable demographic profiles.

Indonesias debt to GDP ratio has steadily declined from 83% in 2001 to be less than 26% by the end of 2013, the lowest among ASEAN countries, aside from Singapore, which has no government debt.

As a result, Indonesia continued to receive good reviews. The rating reflects Indonesias resilience to the global financial crisis, improving government and external credit-metrics, and an ability to manage domestic political challenges to the reform agenda.

According to the research, we have found that Indonesia Investment Coordinating Board (Badan Koordinasi Penanaman Modal/BKPM) focuses on five priority sectors in accordance with the governments work program. Those five sectors are:

1) Infrastructure

2) Agriculture

3) Industry
