Rosan said this contribution is higher than the previous trend, which generally ranged from 28 to 29 percent.
"Thank God, this 5.61 percent economic growth shows that our economy is performing very well, very positively," he said after a meeting at the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs in Jakarta on Tuesday.
He explained that of the total growth, investment contributed around 1.8 percentage points.
The increase in investment contribution, according to him, is among the driving factors of the strong performance of the national economy.
He stated that strong investment performance has had a positive impact on various economic sectors.
Rosan added that a greater investment contribution is expected to maintain the momentum of future economic growth.
Therefore, the government will continue to encourage a better investment climate amidst global turmoil.
Furthermore, increased investment is also seen as strengthening business confidence in domestic economic conditions.
The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) recorded that the Indonesian economy grew by 5.61 percent year-on-year (yoy) in the first quarter of 2026, supported by continued strong domestic economic activity.
In terms of value, the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) in Q1 of 2026 was recorded at Rp3,447.7 trillion (US$197.9 million) at constant prices and Rp6,187.2 trillion (US$355 million) at current prices.
