Digital Economy in Indonesia
Menkominfo, memaparkan bahwa Indonesia akan menjadi negara ekonomi
digital terbesar di kawasan Asia Pasifik. "Kami mempromosikan Indonesia,
sebagai negara ekonomi digital terbesar di region. Khususnya untuk e-
commerce. Oleh sebab itu, kemarin kami bertemu dengan beberapa
venture capital ternama. Pada tahun 2020, e-commerce di Indonesia akan
mencapai USD 130 triliun,"
Data Ernst & Young menunjukkan pertumbuhan nilai penjualan
bisnis online di Indonesia meningkat 40% per tahun. Dengan sekitar 93,4
juta pengguna internet dan 71 juta pengguna smartphone. Pada akhir 2014
saja, nilai bisnis e-commerce Indonesia mencapai USD 12 miliar. Akhir 2015
ini nilai bisnisnya diprediksi sekitar USD 18 miliar
Indonesia tahun ini sedang mengalami pertumbuhan ekonomi paling
lambat dalam lima tahun terakhir. Tetapi pertumbuhan industri e-commerce
justru semakin pesat di tengah perlambatan laju ekonomi tanah air. "Bukan
tak mungkin nantinya industri e-commerce dapat menjadi salah satu tulang
punggung perekonomian nasional," harap Menteri Komunikasi dan
Informatika Rudiantara.
