Indonesia Launches Its 2025–29 National Productivity Master Plan to Power Sustainable, Innovation-led Growth

JAKARTA, Indonesia, Oct 9 (Bernama) -- On 7 October 2025, the Government of Indonesia launched the National Productivity Master Plan (MPPN) 2025–2029, a whole-of-nation blueprint for accelerating innovation, strengthening industrial competitiveness, and raising living standards through sustained productivity gains. Unveiled at a ministerial ceremony in Jakarta, the plan aligns policy and execution across central agencies, provinces, and the private sector to drive a shift from input-driven growth to growth led by total factor productivity (TFP). The launch featured addresses by Asian Productivity Organization (APO) Secretary-General Dr. Indra Pradana Singawinata, Minister of Manpower Professor Yassierli, Minister of Home Affairs Muhammad Tito Karnavian, and Minister of National Development Planning/Head of the National Development Planning Agency (BAPPENAS) Professor Ir. Rachmat Pambudy, M.S., underscoring the unified commitment to productivity as the pathway to higher-quality jobs and Indonesia Emas 2045 (“Golden Indonesia 2045”).

The MPPN sets out an integrated agenda to boost productivity across the economy: diffusing technology and management excellence in firms; upgrading workforce skills for digital and green transitions; deepening value chains and export capabilities; improving the enabling environment (regulatory quality, infrastructure, logistics); and institutionalizing measurement, review, and accountability. BAPPENAS will serve as system integrator, coordinating ministries and local governments to align programs and budgets, while public-private collaboration and demonstration projects will speed adoption on the ground. Core to the plan is disciplined monitoring and evaluation, ensuring that productivity gains translate into competitiveness, incomes, and regional convergence.
