        "content": "<p>Jakarta, VIVA \u2013 Indonesia\u2019s Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin)\nappreciates the government\u2019s performance in boosting Indonesia\u2019s\neconomic growth rate in the first quarter of 2026 to 5.61%. This\nachievement is inseparable from government programmes executed quite\neffectively. Accelerated government spending since January, the free\nnutritious meals programme (MBG) running massively up to Rp80 trillion,\naggressive construction of 3 million homes, and several other priority\nprogrammes have contributed to driving economic growth. Likewise, direct\ninvestment activities have been underway since the beginning of the\nyear. \u201cWe appreciate the government\u2019s performance. Government programmes\nimplemented since early 2025 are starting to show results this year,\u201d\nstated Kadin Indonesia Chairman Anindya Novyan Bakrie in a press\nrelease, quoted on Wednesday, 6 May 2026. Kadin will continue to\ncollaborate with the government, support, and fully participate in all\nprogrammes to boost economic growth and create equitable prosperity for\nall Indonesian people, from Sabang to Merauke. Indonesia\u2019s 5.61%\neconomic growth amid deteriorating global conditions is an extraordinary\nachievement that deserves appreciation. Indonesia\u2019s economic growth rate\nin the first quarter of 2026 at 5.61% is the highest achievement among\nG20 member countries. In the same period, China\u2019s economy grew 5%,\nSingapore 4.6%, South Korea 3.6%, Saudi Arabia 2.8%, and the US 2.8%.\n\u201cThis is a proud achievement,\u201d stated Anin. Anin assesses that the\nimprovement in national economic performance is not only supported by\ngovernment spending and domestic consumption but is also marked by the\nopening of new export markets and increasing investment flows, including\nmedium-scale ones starting to spread to regions. Efforts to open new\nexport markets, although still in the early stages, are already\nbeginning to have an impact amid various global challenges. At the same\ntime, Anin said, the incoming investment flows are considered\nincreasingly diverse, not only dominated by large projects but also\nmedium investments that have the potential to drive regional economies.\n\u201cLately, we have succeeded in opening new export markets. Although just\nstarting, the impact is already visible, including on incoming\ninvestments,\u201d stated Anin. According to him, the next challenge is to\nensure that these investments continue to flow to the regions through\nstrengthened coordination and cooperation between the central and\nregional governments. Only in this way will economic growth not only be\nconcentrated in the centre but spread more evenly to various\nregions.<\/p>",
