Indonesia witnessed a sharp decline in its export growth for November 2025. The latest data, updated on January 5, 2026, revealed that the export growth indicator dramatically dropped to -6.60%, compared to the same month a year ago. This significant downturn highlights a worsening trend when compared to the previous month, which had already shown negative growth at -2.31%.
The information underscores challenges facing Indonesia’s export sector as it navigates through volatile global economic conditions. The hefty decrease from the previous month's negative growth rate suggests deeper-rooted issues affecting trade dynamics or demand for Indonesian exports on the global stage.
The year-over-year comparison paints a concerning picture for strategic economic planning, as Indonesia grapples with its declining export performance amid broader uncertainties in international markets. This steep drop in export growth calls for a reassessment of policies and strategies to reverse this declining trend and bolster the country's trading fortunes moving forward.
