[edit] Earlier comments

After some thought and consideration, I created an Indonesia-related topics notice board, along the same lines as other regional notice boards (such as those for Malaysia and Africa). This was established to coordinate efforts to improve Indonesia-related Wikipedia entries. If you've made contributions to Indonesia-related articles in the past, or would like to, please take some time to visit, introduce yourself, and sign the roster. --Daniel June 30, 2005 18:36 (UTC)

Where is the source that per capita GDP has returned to pre-crisis levels? This seems contradicted by CIA World Factbook entries for 1997 ($4,600) and 2005 ($3,700). 18.251.5.70 06:31, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

You are listing the purchasing power per capita. The actual GDP per capita of Indonesia is about $1,200, which is higher than it was before the Asian Economic Crisis.

Could someone update the numbers of the people below the poverty line? According to Antara news the total number of people in Indonesia below povery line is 16.6%:

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - Coordinating Minister for People`s Welfare Aburizal Bakrie has projected that the poverty rate in Indonesia dropped to 15 percent, in view of intensified efforts laid down in the 2008 Draft State Budget to eradicate poverty in Indonesia.

"We hope that by implementing the programs on improving the life of poor people, the poverty rate could be brought down to less than 15 percent," the minister told a press conference at the Office of Coordinating Minister for Economy in Jakarta on Thursday.

The total number of the poor in Indonesia dropped by 16.6 percent, or 37.17 million in 2007, while their number in 2006 reached 39.3 million. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dennis7091 (talk • contribs) 21:23, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article cleanup

Most of this article is based on one Indonesian based web page overcited regularly in the article - there is little neutrality in the information provided - there is need for considerable cleanup SatuSuro 13:39, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

As an additional note, many GDP and industry value figures from Badan Pusat Statistik website are "Atas Dasar Harga Berlaku", or "at current market price". Calculation of real growth needs to factor out inflation from the figures, which is currently not done in this article. Derianto (talk) 03:58, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

This would also help clean up the article and make it more concise. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.210.65.30 (talk) 16:52, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
