What's driving the attention

Unemployment in Indonesia has surged, especially among degree and diploma holders in regions like Lampung, prompting initiatives to reduce these rates.

The unemployment rate in Indonesia, particularly in Lampung and cities such as Subulussalam, has notably increased, with graduates holding degrees and diplomas being the most affected. While some areas report unemployment levels close to 4.87 percent, efforts such as the strategies implemented by UIN Raden Inten aim to reduce this problem. Despite challenges, recent economic evaluations recognize positive developments, such as Prabowo's economic policy impact in early 2026.
