Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find out whether there is a curse or blessing of Indonesia's natural resources and to find out how the long-term influence of natural resource rents, foreign direct investment, inflation, and the Covid-19 pandemic on economic growth. Based on the purpose of the study, the method used is a Fully Modified Ordinary Least Square (FMOLS). The results show that Indonesia is free from the curse of natural resources, meaning that Indonesia's natural resources have blessings for economic growth. In addition, based on the FMOLS test, it is known that foreign direct investment has not influenced economic development. Meanwhile, inflation and Covid-19 have a negative and significant influence on Indonesia's economic growth.
