SMERU's performance in 2003 was marked by a significant increase in research output. We even managed to exceed our annual targets. It was also a year of recognition for SMERU. In addition to other achievements, one of our research teams won the 2003 H.W. Arndt Prize, an annual award from the Australian National University for the best article published in the Bulletin of Indonesian Economic Studies (BIES).
