The Covid-19 virus has spread across the world with alarming speed, infecting millions and causing economic disruption on an unprecedented scale. In this survey, we examine the impact of the outbreak on the Indonesian economy, as well as the government’s response to the public health crisis and its provisions for the emerging economic crisis. Indonesia’s delay in responding to the health crisis while Covid-19 spread in neighbouring countries in January–February 2020 has been costly for the health of the population. The government’s policy responses have so far been aimed at steadying the ship, addressing both the needs of the poor and the potentially poor (vulnerable) groups. At the time of writing, Covid-19 had not been tamed in Indonesia by any means. Hence, its implications for economic growth, jobs and welfare remained uncertain, as policy discussions were all about opening up the economy from virus-imposed restrictions across the country, under what has been termed the ‘new normal’.

Covid-19时代的印度尼西亚

Covid-19 病毒以惊人的速度在世界范围内传播，感染了数百万人并以前所未有的规模造成经济破坏。在本次调查中，我们研究了疫情对印尼经济的影响，以及政府对公共卫生危机的反应及其对新出现的经济危机的准备。2020 年 1 月至 2 月，Covid-19 在邻国蔓延，印度尼西亚在应对健康危机方面出现拖延，这对人民的健康造成了代价高昂的代价。迄今为止，政府的政策反应旨在稳定这艘船，解决穷人和潜在贫困（弱势）群体的需求。在撰写本文时，Covid-19 尚未在印度尼西亚以任何方式被驯服。因此，它对经济增长、就业和福利的影响仍然不确定，
