Every row is indexed to the last quarter complete before the first day in office ("from" marks a start that had to move because that period had no data, or because the period cut it); Indonesia is measured over the same months. Levels are per cent changes, rates are differences in %; "per year" compounds levels and divides rates. Tenures with under 12 months, or under three observations, are left out. Rp trillion, 2010 prices, last four quarters · BPS, quarterly GDP by province (PDRB, table 2267) at constant 2010 prices, summed over the trailing four quarters · province data · as of Sep 2026.
