A. Report and discuss your Indonesia’s macroeconomic performance solely during the years from 2015 to and including 2022. What is Indonesia’s GDP? What are their major industries? Imports / Exports? What is their inflation story?

B. Review the current World Economic Outlook published by the International Monetary Fund has forecasts for Indonesia for the current year and the next two years (that is, for 2023, 2024, and 2025). How strong or weak is the growth that the IMF forecasts for Indonesia?
Given the baseline from the IMF World Economic Outlook forecasts: What are the two most important risks that could have adverse effects on your country’s macroeconomic performance during the next two to three years? Explain why you have chosen each of these two risks, and how each of these risks would affect the country’s macroeconomic performance.

C. What is the current government’s macroeconomic policies and what specific changes in Indonesia’s government policies can improve the country’s macroeconomic performance during the next two to three years? Focus on changes in the provisions, settings, and/or implementation of the government’s macroeconomic policies that the country should put into effect now, or on such changes in the government’s macroeconomic policies that the country should be ready to put into effect in the near future (because there is a good probability that such changes will be needed in the near future).

D. Given the macroeconomic policies that Indonesia currently has in place: What are two different changes in the provisions, settings, or implementation of macroeconomic policies that you recommend to the country’s government? Be as specific as you can be about the policy changes you are recommending. Why do you recommend each of these two changes in government policy?
