Abstract

The article focuses on Indonesia's economic and political landscape during the final year of former President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo's administration and the transition to President Prabowo Subianto in 2024. Jokowi's endorsement of Prabowo's campaign was pivotal for his election victory, while Jokowi continued to influence policies, particularly in economic matters, despite the transition. The economic performance in 2024 showed mixed results, with a projected growth of 5.1% and challenges such as high food inflation, particularly in rice prices, affecting lower-income segments. The article also discusses the new government's budget for 2025, which aims to balance ambitious projects with fiscal constraints, and highlights the structural changes in the cabinet under President Prabowo, emphasizing the need for effective coordination to achieve economic growth targets.
