  1. Indonesia and the Philippines are good economic partners in Southeast Asia since the diplomatic ties started in 1949, 75 Years ago and today they’re sharing of it’s economic partnership 😊😊

    I 💕 Republic of Indonesia from Calamba City, Laguna in the Philippines 🇵🇭💕🇮🇩

  2. Haha… no Indonesia will never surpass Japan simply because while Japanese politician is exposed having commited corruption they shamefully resigned. Indonesian politicians? They have no shame and commits even more corruption after being exposed. Surpassing Japan? Hell no.

  3. Based on World Bank data, Indonesia's GDP per capita in 2015 was US$ 3,322.58 per year while BPS data shows the figure rising to US$ 4,783.9 in 2022.

    That is, during the eight years of Jokowi's government, GDP per capita rose by US$ 1,307.28 or 37.6¨

    For the record, 2015 was the first year in which President Jokowi led Indonesia in full. Jokowi only served as president for three months in 2014 after being sworn in in October 2014.

    In the first year of President SBY's full presidency, in 2005, Indonesia's GDP per capita was US$ 1,249.39 per year. The figure then rose to US$ 3,668.22 per year in 2012.

    Thus, during the first eight years of SBY's government, Indonesia's GDP per capita rose by US$ 2,418.81 or 193,6¨

  4. Nevermind Japan Indonesia has the potential to rival that of the US and America knows it.Which is why the Western media gets offended when Indonesia takes control of its nickel,builds high speed trains with China and develops a new capital city.

  5. I rather Indonesia work together with Japan. Indonesia has what Japan doesn't have and vice versa, if we work together imagine what we can accomplish.

  6. Really ? 😂
    I'm native of Indonesian, and doubtly believe this. We're get informed everyday by our local news that this country will get doomed soon

  7. Bagi lah mimpi kepada jawa keling itu. Padahal mau kejar Indonesia emas 2045 masih ketar ketir. 🤭 Selagi ada sikap iri hati, sikap hanya mau menyalahkan orang lain, selagi menyala iq78 bikin hoax menghujat negara tetangga tapi tidak cermin diri sendiri, seperti qyqm jantan berkokok tapi ekur sendiri bergumpal tahi, selagi itu tidak akan mau. 😅😂🤣

  8. Hahahahaha Very Funny,Surpass Japan Name One Tecnology,And Innovation Product From Indonesia That Famous Globaly

    50% Indonesia Billionaire From Natural Resource,
    30% Indonesia Billionaire From Food Industry,
    10 % Billionaire From Technology And Innovation
    10% From Other Sector

    Surpass Japan In What Population They Already Surpass It

  9. Unmanaged National Debts, Notorius Corruptions Web, Conglomeracy Trap … three pilars of Indonesia Economy, that's why Indonesia will surpass Japan to the edge of …. cliff may be? Peace bruh

  10. this is just either clickbait to get indoensian yt viewers or the one who does the research just read mainstream media news and does not really know the true condition of Indonesia. in terms of badly managed government institutions and lack of quality human capital , lack of science technology ecosystem, lack of audit insitutional transparency ,corruption culture in the highest to lowest levels govt in all branches of govt and state owned enterprises, excessive inequality , nepotism , powerful oligarchy relations with govt especially in the excessive domination of the commodidities sector for the economy, family dynasties in govt, justice system is very dirty , and most impotantly “THe RULE of LAW NOT working as it should be according to constitution “ … these fundamental things not even close to Japan..the current media who said Indoensia will be the 4th largest economy is simply just “in theory” not based on the compexities of reality. the country only has strong potentials and this hypothesis is reasonable on how large this country is..however it does not mean it will be able to maximize and optimize its actual potential throughout the future. even if hypothetically Indonesia manage to get to same gdp per capita of ~$10,000usd it will most likely be in the middle income trap…it still has very long ways for improvement…dont know when…it might happen in theory on paper however sadly it is highly unlikely in reality especially in terms of : gdp per capita, economic complexity, economic competetiveness, corruption perception index, human development index , innovation index – to surpass Japan ( even with Japan’s own economic and demographic probelms )

  11. As an Indonesian, I feel it will be very difficult, if not impossible, to surpass Japan in at least the next 50 years, maybe even longer. The main problem of this country isn't its natural resources or its competent people, but the mindset of the majority of its society, which has not yet advanced. Even something as simple as obeying traffic rules or not littering is still a challenge

  12. jika indonesia membuka besar besaran industri.dari dunia barat dan chaina.membuka industri semikonduktor modern maka tidak mustahil tehnologi indonesia kedepan akan maju melampoi japan.karna di dukung industri induk dari barat.

  13. indonesia adalah negara besar
    kami rakyat indonesia mampu membuat kapal tank helikopter dan kareta
    ayoh negara asean beli barang buatan indonesia yang berkualiti tinggi
    mantap

    NKRI HARGA MATI
    KAMI RAKYAT INDONESIA RELA MATI UNTUK IBU DAN BAPA PERTIWI
    HIDUP BAPAK JOKOWI
    HIDUP GANYAKNG!!!!!!

  14. 150 years debt with China, and next debt of 750 billion dollar only just to pay interest, not even the debt itself. Nay, why do you think your government keep introducing new tax and selling pasir to Singapore. More and more investor are running away from Indonesia, the corruption there is just absurd

  15. nope, not in a million year

    Indonesia will never surpass japan, the people's mindset and work ethics just won't let that happen

    however, Indonesia has a very good chance to become one of China's debt victim like Sri Lanka due to stupid Widodo policies

  16. Indonesia's first president's wife was Japanese.. Barack Obama's mother married with an Indonesian. And his younger sister is mix of American and Indonesian.
    I don't know, it's too hard for me to compete with Japan.

  17. What the hell are you yapping about?? Our goverment is too corrupt right now 😅.. We're cooked right now here.. Even looking for job as janitor needs uni degree here 😅… Yeah we're cooked..
