The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) will re-implement the Economic Census in 2026. The economic census is an activity once every ten years to collect data on business actors throughout Indonesia.
As a form of preparation and readiness of BPS in implementing the 2026 Economic Census (SE2026), BPS held a Technical and Administrative Coordination Meeting for Preparation of SE2026 in Surabaya, 19-21 November 2024. The coordination meeting was attended by BPS representatives throughout Indonesia.
The Main Secretary of BPS, Imam Machdi opened the activity and expressed his appreciation to all BPS staff in implementing the SE2026 Trial this year. Imam also emphasized the importance of collaboration with the business world and business associations in making SE2026 a success. "Business actors and associations have a vital role in the success of SE2026. The active participation of business actors and associations not only helps the implementation of the census, but also strengthens the validity of the data," explained Imam.
To provide an overview and perspective on the role of SE2026 in Indonesia's economic policy, a panel discussion was held featuring the Assistant Deputy for Increasing Economic Competitiveness of the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs, Ichsan Zulkarnaen and the Director of Industry, Tourism, and Creative Economy of the Ministry of PPN/Bappenas, Wahyu Wijayanto. The discussion was moderated by the Director of Distribution Statistics of BPS, Sarpono.
The coordination meeting also inaugurated the SE2026 Coordination Task Force (Garda) which is tasked with coordinating the implementation of SE2026. This inauguration is one of the symbols that BPS is ready to implement SE2026!
