Minister Purbaya Outlines Nine Strategies to Navigate Global Uncertainty

3 hours ago 12

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Indonesian Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa said that the government, along with relevant authorities, will maintain the stability of the financial sector, strengthen policy coordination, and increase market confidence. The aim is to bring capital flow back to levels consistent with its fundamental value.

The Minister stated that the capital market is expected to become a supporter of national economic financing and profitable investments once again. "We realize that the global economy is still very dynamic," said Purbaya during a working meeting with House of Commission XI (DPR) on Wednesday, June 10, 2026.

Purbaya mentioned that the fiscal policy will continue to be responsive and anticipatory in order to mitigate uncertainties. This will be achieved through nine strategic policies, including maintaining the stability of subsidized fuel and food prices. Then, ensure energy supply and rice stock are at safe levels.

Next is maintaining fiscal discipline by keeping the deficit below 3 percent of GDP, promoting efficiency, refocusing spending, and optimizing revenue based on natural resources (SDA). This is achieved by regulating export earnings (DHE) and improving the governance of strategic SDA exports to maintain macro stability.

In addition, the government provides stimulus packages to maintain people's purchasing power, business sustainability, and support economic growth, including transportation ticket discounts, food assistance, housing incentives, and internship and vocational programs.

Purbaya said the government also seeks to improve spending absorption patterns, making them faster and more consistent. The goal is to change the absorption pattern from slow-low to quick-high in order to better support economic growth. The ninth policy is to strengthen synergy and collaboration between fiscal and monetary policies to maintain stability and drive economic growth.

According to Purbaya, the strength of the domestic economy's fundamentals, supported by increasingly solid policies, provides a strong foundation for facing economic dynamics in 2027.
