A massive volcanic eruption in Indonesia sent ash and smoke miles into the sky,
grounding flights, blanketing villages, and prompting evacuations as authorities remain on high alert.
Though no casualties have been reported, the volcano’s ongoing activity has disrupted travel and rattled residents in a region familiar with eruptions.

Landmark Gender Justice Agreement for Indonesian Garment Workers Shows the Power of Research and Campaigning
Last year, two garment factories in Indonesia signed a gender justice agreement aimed at eliminating gender-based violence with a union-led program. Now, the organizers behind it want to see the model spread across the country.

Thank god that Tung Tung Tung Sahur is attributed as "Italian brainrot" instead of something from Indonesia. At least "Paket Phoenix" is really Indonesian, both the people on the picture and the ISP/company.

This would have been a complete disaster of an API otherwise.

An Interpretable Machine Learning Approach in Predicting Inflation Using Payments System Data: A Case Study of Indonesia
This paper evaluates the performance of prominent machine learning (ML) algorithms in predicting Indonesia's inflation using the payment system, capital market, and macroeconomic data. We compare the forecasting performance of each ML model, namely shrinkage regression, ensemble learning, and super vector regression, to that of the univariate time series ARIMA and SARIMA models. We examine various out-of-bag sample periods in each ML model to determine the appropriate data-splitting ratios for …

The rise of China, along with regional powers such as Turkey, Indonesia and Saudi Arabia, has disrupted the unipolar dominance of the U.S.
These would-be regional hegemons bring with them their own means of imposing influence through economic incentives and coercion.
In China’s case, infrastructure and trade development through the Belt and Road Initiative is counterbalanced with shows of military strength in the South China Sea.

Stock Market Telepathy: Graph Neural Networks Predicting the Secret Conversations between MINT and G7 Countries
Emerging economies, particularly the MINT countries (Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Türkiye), are gaining influence in global stock markets, although they remain susceptible to the economic conditions of developed countries like the G7 (Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States). This interconnectedness and sensitivity of financial markets make understanding these relationships crucial for investors and policymakers to predict stock price movements accur…

Digital payment policy impact analysis on the intention to use QRIS (quick response code Indonesian standard) during COVID-19 pandemic
This study aims to evaluate the adoption of Bank Indonesia's QRIS (Quick Response code Indonesian Standard) payment system policy. The evaluation is hindered by the contemporaneous emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, which acts as a confounding factor in adopting the new payment instrument. To disentangle the impact of central bank policy from the pandemic, a novel variation of the model of Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) is proposed and is estimated using purposive s…
