This study aims to determine how a countrys abundant natural resource wealth can be utilised to bolster its economy and alleviate poverty. This study focuses on the use of natural resources to expedite development. This investigation makes use of a library-based qualitative research strategy. Data was gathered by conducting a Scopus search for natural resources-related journal articles using titles, keywords, and abstracts as metadata search references, and then analysing the results with the VOSviewer tool. The results indicate that natural resource-rich regions do not guarantee increased economic growth or reductions in poverty. Poverty in Indonesia is a complex issue, despite the fact that a number of developing nations have been successful in implementing improvements in national production and income. The conclusion demonstrates that the resource curse in Indonesia is a result of poor resource management, which causes poverty.

Conclusion

Poverty in Indonesia contradicts the notion that abundant natural resources will inevitably lead to economic prosperity.The study concludes that poverty, envy, and conflict result when natural resource wealth is not accompanied by equitable income distribution.The fair management of natural resources and equitable distribution of benefits to producing regions are crucial for overcoming the resource curse in Indonesia.

Future Research

Further research should investigate the specific mechanisms through which poor resource management leads to poverty in different regions of Indonesia, considering local contexts and governance structures. Additionally, studies could explore the effectiveness of various policy interventions, such as revenue-sharing schemes and community-based resource management, in mitigating the resource curse and promoting inclusive growth. Finally, research is needed to assess the role of institutional quality, transparency, and accountability in ensuring that natural resource wealth translates into tangible benefits for local communities and contributes to sustainable development, building upon existing studies of regional autonomy and its impact on resource allocation and poverty reduction. These investigations should also consider the potential for diversifying regional economies beyond reliance on natural resource extraction to foster long-term resilience and reduce vulnerability to commodity price fluctuations.
