Summary

Introduction

Indonesia unemployed people shot up to 7.0 5 million in August 2019 (BPS-Statistics, 2020) and continued to grow around 2.9 million to the heaviest prediction of 5.2 million people due to the impact of the covid pandemic. (Kompas, 2020b). Indonesia unemployed people shot up to 7.0 5 million in August 2019 (BPS-Statistics, 2020) and continued to grow around 2.9 million to the heaviest prediction of 5.2 million people due to the impact of the covid pandemic. The Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) publishes data on the number of labour force participation, which continues to increase. It will continue to increase as the rate of population demographics. The average economic growth before the pandemic was 5%, while the predicted growth in the addition of the productive age workforce continued to increase. BPS prediction until 2035, run to the productive labour force age is 67.9% from the population (BPS-Statistics, 2020). The percentage of Indonesian entrepreneurs compared to the population is still 3.1% This figure requires an acceleration because of the number of entrepreneurs in developed countries averages above 14%. Even some neighbouring countries like Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand have reached rates above 4% (Tempo, 2019)
