        "summary": "An economist from Paramadina University, Wijayanto Samirin, predicts that Indonesia's economic growth in 2026 will surpass the World Bank's revised projection of 4.7 per cent, though reaching five per cent remains challenging amid global uncertainties. He highlights pressures such as declining purchasing power, currency weakening, rising inflation, and potential El Ni\u00f1o effects, which may lead investors to adopt a wait-and-see approach. Key growth drivers are expected in sectors including trade, finance, mining and downstreaming, food and beverages, health, telecommunications, and retail.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - Paramadina University economist Wijayanto Samirin\nbelieves Indonesia\u2019s economic growth in 2026 still has the potential to\nexceed the World Bank\u2019s projection, although breaching the five per cent\nlevel will be difficult amid current global uncertainties. \u201cI think\nIndonesia will grow above the World Bank projection, but it will be\ndifficult to break through five per cent,\u201d Wijayanto told ANTARA in\nJakarta on Friday. For context, the World Bank has cut its projection\nfor Indonesia\u2019s economic growth to 4.7 per cent from 4.8 per cent.\nHowever, from the second to fourth quarters, Indonesia\u2019s economy is\nexpected to face pressures from declining purchasing power, weakening\nexchange rates, rising inflation, and global uncertainties that\nencourage investors to adopt a wait-and-see stance. Additionally, there\nis the potential for El Ni\u00f1o to worsen economic conditions. In such\nconditions, he continued, several sectors are expected to become engines\nof growth. \u201cSectors with the potential to become engines of growth\ninclude trade, finance, mining and downstreaming, food and beverages,\nhealth, telecommunications, and retail,\u201d said Wijayanto.<\/p>",
