Indonesia's Infrastructure Contribution to GDP Among the World's Highest

Indonesia ranks among the countries with the largest global contribution of infrastructure development to GDP. A survey by Arcadis, a Dutch asset and development consultancy, states that Indonesia's contribution of asset development to GDP reached US$1.2 trillion. This figure places Indonesia in sixth position, surpassing Germany, which recorded a contribution of US$1 trillion.

China has the largest inflow from development. The GDP of the country led by President Xi Jinping received a contribution of US$10.4 trillion, surpassing the United States, which is experiencing an economic slowdown. The United States recorded a national inflow of US$5.4 trillion. India is in third place with an achievement of US$3.6 trillion.

This study indicates that many developing countries are experiencing healthy growth from infrastructure contributions. Meanwhile, many advanced economies are experiencing stagnation and shifting their economic focus to the service sector.
