In recent years, Indonesia has become one of the best performers in the world economy, with a GDP growth rate that consistently tops 6 percent.
This achievement has been made possible through the efforts of the Indonesian government, according to an analysis of the country's economy by Wu Chongbo, a professor of economics who specializes in Southeast Asian studies at Fujian-based Xiamen University.
Wu said they have restructured some major industries, developed the country's infrastructure, promoted manufacturing and continued to boost domestic consumption.
