<![CDATA[East Java is part of the international global supply chain and the gateway of trade to eastern Indonesia. East Java became the center of trade links to East Indonesia where this connection was strengthened by Tol Laut which is a subsidized cruise to and from Eastern Indonesia. The Covid-19 pandemic that infected East Java led to a decrease in people’s purchasing power and caused the trade sector to contract. This economic contraction caused shock in supply and demand. This research aims to explore the potential of East Java to rebound from economic contraction due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
