摘要：The 2008/2009 global economic crisis has affected many countries, including Indonesia. This paper aims toexamine the socio-economic impacts of the crisis in Indonesia. The paper has two main parts. The firstpart gives a theoretical explanation of the main transmission channels through which the crisis hasaffected the Indonesian economy. The second part is the empirical part on economic growth, export,employment, remittances and poverty in Indonesia. One important finding from this study is thatunemployment and poverty declined.
