Despite achievements of high economic growth, poverty reduction, and maintenance of macroeconomic stability over the past 30 years, Indonesia suffers from several economic weaknesses. Problems existed prior to the crisis and were aggravated during the crisis. This raises the most important concern about how Indonesia will sustain its economic recovery from the most devastating crisis in the past 40 years. Indonesia was suffering from a vulnerable balance of payment structure before the crisis. Persistent current account deficits from the services sector were funded mainly by government foreign debts, and right before the crisis were also supported by an influx of private, especially short-term, capital.

Since then the price level has fallen by a cumulative of 15 percent, bringing the average consumer prices back to their 1995 level. Deflation had persisted for more than 5 years. Since June 2004, the onset of rising import prices and improving domestic demand has started to reverse the downward pressure on consumer prices. A major part of the deflationary episode can be accounted for by the bursting of the property bubble triggered by the contagion effects of the Asian Financial Crisis. About half of the drop in the CPI can be accounted for by the housing component.

Given the linked exchange rate system in Hong Kong, where the local currency is unified with the US Dollar through a currency board arrangement, cyclical deflationary pressure appeared. For this reason, the economic downturn in Hong Kong in the 5 years following the onset of the Asian Financial Crisis was particularly severe. Wong (2002) predicted that the Hong Kong economy was unlikely to rebound until the rest of East Asia starts moving again. For this reason, Hong Kong was therefore less likely to repeat its previous records of rapid export-led manufacturing based recovery on this occasion.
