KN. Indonesia has a relatively high poverty rate compared with several other upper-middle-income countries. According to the World Bank’s April 2026 Macro Poverty Outlook, 64.2 percent of Indonesia’s population is projected to live below the poverty line of $8.30 per person per day in 2026, based on 2021 purchasing power parity (PPP). This places Indonesia fourth among 11 ASEAN countries and developing peer countries included in the comparison. Indonesia’s poverty rate is lower than Timor-Leste’s 71.7 percent, India’s 70.7 percent, and Laos’ 68.6 percent in 2026.
