further economic growth, so that it can improve the welfare of the people," Suhariyanto said
at a press conference in Jakarta, Monday (5/2 / 2018).

Percent in 2017 "This means that the results of infrastructure development have begun to
roll," said Suhariyanto. He said, the source of Indonesia's economic growth in 2017 was the
manufacturing industry, which is 0.91 percent. In addition, followed by the construction
sector by 0.67 percent, trade 0.59 percent, and agriculture 0.49 percent. "The source of
growth in the last 3 years is from the manufacturing industry. If it can increase growth in the

contribution," Suhariyanto said.
