Situational Analysis of the Political and Economic Landscape in Indonesia Towards 2045

Summary/Abstract: Indonesia will commemorate its centenary of independence in the year 2045. The population aged 15-64, which accounts for 70% of the total population, has resulted in a demographic dividend. When properly handled, the demographic dividend can drive future Indonesia growth. However, if mismanaged, it might become a threat. The realization of the vision for 2045 is contingent upon political and economic stability, as these variables shape the government's approach to resource management, income distribution, and decision-making, all of which have significant implications for society. Nevertheless, Indonesia continues to confront national, regional, and international obstacles that hinder its pursuit of economic and political stability. This article thoroughly evaluates these difficulties and presents ideas to strengthen the economy and political stability based on situational analysis a research approach to adequate reflective understanding of current situation. More precisely, the paper suggests directing attention towards (1). Establishing an educational system that includes a well-designed curriculum, up-to-date facilities, secure welfare for academic staff, and an affordable price; (2).
