Unlocking Indonesia's Potential: Modern Economics through a Pancasila Lens

Pancasila Principles and Modern Economics

Pancasila, Indonesia's five guiding principles of belief in one God, humanity, unity, democracy, and social justice, continues to seek its full integration into economic policy. A closer examination reveals that the moral foundations of economics often align with the values embodied by Pancasila. Unfortunately, these moral foundational principles have become increasingly obscured by the technicalities of modern economic models.

Our Mission

We aim to bridge the gap between Pancasila principles and modern economic theory, fostering a platform for discussions on economic policy. By exploring the potential synergies between these two realms, we hope to be able to make meaningful contributions to the unlocking of Indonesia’s great potential

Insights, Data, and Analyses


Pancasila, as a guiding principle, inspires us to reexamine modern economics. By exploring the compatibility of Pancasila with contemporary economic theory, we hope to gain and provide valuable insights to inform public discourse on economic policy in Indonesia. We do so with insights, data, and analyses.
