    Wildan Syafriansah's document discusses whether GDP is a perfect measure of well-being. In 3 sentences, the document summarizes that Wildan does not agree that GDP per capita can describe people's welfare. While GDP per capita in Indonesia is reported as IDR 4.9 million per month, many people actually earn far below that figure, as more than 24 million Indonesians still live below the poverty line of IDR 401,220 per month. Therefore, GDP cannot be used as an absolute measure of a population's well-being.

    A. GDP is a perfect measure of well-being

    Do you agree or disagree with this statement?

    I do not agree

    can the GDP per capita figure really describe people's welfare?

    If we consider our daily intuition, it seems that the GDP per capita figure does not really describe the
    state of the people's welfare. For example, if it is said that the average income per person/family in
    Indonesia is IDR 4.9 million per month (GDP), in fact there are many people whose income is far below
    that figure. For example, the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) still records that more than 24 million
    Indonesian citizens are below the poverty line (earning less than IDR 401,220 a month). Therefore, GDP
    cannot be used to measure people's welfare absolutely.
