Inward FDI in Indonesia and its policy context

Inward foreign direct investment (IFDI) in Indonesia has been an important element of the country's economic development process. Following the introduction of the first foreign direct investment (FDI) law early in the 'New Order' era (1966-1998), IFDI flows to Indonesia were relatively large. Indonesia was hit hard during the Asian financial crisis in 1997-1998, when net IFDI inflows fell sharply. In the first half of 2004, IFDI started to grow again. Indonesia still faces some uncertainties relating to the implementation of regional autonomy and to the high costs of running businesses caused by inadequate infrastructure, restrictive labor regulations and corruption. Nevertheless, the availability of vast reserves of highly diversified natural resources, a huge domestic market potential, a cheap labor force, and continued reforms in the direction of a market-based economy, including privatizations and open access to almost all sectors, are likely to boost IFDI

Development of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises and Their Constraints: A Story from Indonesia

Abstract: The main aim of this paper is to discuss recent development of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and their current problems in Indonesia, based on analysis of secondary data on their performance focusing on their contribution to gross domestic product (GDP) and productivity, and their constraints. It shows that their GDP share is larger than that of large enterprises (LEs). But it is mainly because their number is huge, while their productivity is low. Their main constraints are mainly high cost of raw materials, marketing difficulties, and lack of capital. Abstrak: Tujuan utama tulisan ini adalah untuk membahas perkembangan terakhir dari usaha mikro, kecil dan menengah (UMKM) di Indonesia dan masalah-masalah saat ini yang dialami oleh kelompok usaha tersebut. Pembahasannya didasarkan pada analisis data sekunder mengenai kinerjanya dengan memfokuskan pada kontribusinya terhadap produk domestik bruto (PDB) dan produktivitas serta kendala-kendalanya. Tulisan ini menunjukkan bahwa pangsa PDB dari UMKM lebih besar dbandingkan dari usaha besar (UB), tetapi hal itu lebih disebabkan oleh jumlah UMKM yang sangat banyak, sedangkan produktivitasnya rendah. Kendala-kendala utamanya adalah mahalnya bahan baku, kesulitan pemasaran, dan keterbatasan modal
