Thailand vs Indonesia

Field by field, official sources only. Green wins the row, red loses it — grey rows lack a published value on one side.

Thailand takes work & income and macro — widest margin: unemployment (0.78 % vs 3.24 %). Indonesia takes cost of money and housing & living — widest margin: house price growth (-3.19 % vs 1.93 %). In this type case — a single average earner comparing published official figures — the categories are not summed: a mortgage rate and a GDP figure do not weigh the same.
