Outlook for Indonesia, ASEAN, East Asia in 2008
2008-01-03 13:36:00 By Jusuf Wanandi.There are two main challenges for Indonesia in 2008. First, there is the possibility that a recession or even half-recession in the U.S. (i.e. growth of 0.5-1.5 percent of GDP) could affect growth in East Asia, including Indonesia. Speculations abound about sub-prime loan losses in the U.S. and their impact on the U.S. real economy.It remains to be seen whether rising oil prices and the decline of the U.S. dollar will plunge that country into recession. In any case, the situation will have an impact on the world economy.Second, 2008 is the start of campaigning for the 2009 general elections. Parliamentary and senatorial elections are scheduled for April 2009, followed by the presidential election in September 2009. Because of the campaigns, one cannot expect to see many significant new economic initiatives by the government, bureaucracy, political parties or business community. Everything will be defined by the general elections, and a lot of money will be diverted ...
