JAKARTA, Aug. 1 (UPI) -- Indonesia's income per capita has risen to around $1,500, and the government says that means the nation is middle-income.

The head of the country's Central Bureau of Statistics, Rusman Heriwan, said prospects for continued economic advancement appeared strong.

Indonesia Vice President Jusuf Kalla said there were three factors that could help raise the gross domestic product even beyond the middle-income level, the nation's population and the exchange rate, Antara reported Tuesday.
