Global crises triggered by COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical tensions caused significant shocks to Indonesian economy, reflected in economic growth decline to minus 2.07 percent in 2020. Research method employs descriptive qualitative approach with secondary data analysis from government official publications and international institutions. Results indicate that government intervention through National Economic Recovery program with budget allocation of IDR 699.43 trillion successfully restored economic growth to 3.69 percent in 2021 and reached 5.31 percent in 2023.
