Additionally, Dr. Patunru noted that in recent decades, Indonesia's economic and manufacturing growth has remained relatively stagnant compared to that of its ASEAN neighbors. "Indonesia's participation in value chains is lower compared to Malaysia, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Thailand," Patunru stated, suggesting that there is still room for improvements in industrial policy for Indonesia.
