THREE R’S FOR POLICY
- Responding, to facilitate more
near-term adjustment:
- Monetary and fiscal policy
coordination
- Exchange rate flexibility
- Reducing uncertainty:
- Contingency planning
- Communication
- Refocusing policies to lift
sustainable growth rate:
- August package: follow through
- “Quick wins” for competitiveness
- Fiscal sector: energy subsidies,
infrastructure spending, social protection
AUGUST PACKAGE: IMPLEMENTATION IS KEY
Relieve external balance pressures
- Exports: tax relief for labor-intensive exporters
- Investment: DNI; “de-bottlenecking”
Reduce inflation pressures
- Food imports: move to price-based restrictions
Support employment
- Bounded zones
- Tax relief for qualifying firms in labor-intensive sectors
- Minimum wages
MORE MEASURES TO LIFT COMPETITIVENESS
- Boost from weaker Rupiah provides an opportunity…
- …but will be wasted without a supply response
- “Quick wins” in trade facilitation can help

ADDRESS THE PERSISTENT INFRASTRUCTURE GAP REALLOCATE SPENDING TOWARDS INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORT EXTERNAL BALANCES OVER THE MEDIUM- TERM
BREAKING INTO INFRASTRUCTURE CYCLE
- Improve domestic and external
competitiveness
- Potential to re-orientate
import-intensity of spending
- Enhance FDI potential (and
provide more stable financing)
- Offset the rise in financing costs
- Enhance sustainable growth
MAIN MESSAGES
- Indonesia faces greater constraints: trade shock, global liquidity
- The economy and policy settings are adjusting:
- Base case outlook for growth moderation and gradually narrowing current
account deficit
- But external uncertainties still elevated and adjustment phase carries risks
- Critical continued role for policy – 3 R’s:
- Responding, to facilitate more near-term adjustment
- Reducing uncertainty: contingency planning and communication to
support confidence
- Refocusing policy efforts on lifting competitiveness and the sustainable
growth rate
- August policy package implementation
- Additional “quick wins”, e.g. trade facilitation
- Continuing progress on fiscal sector reforms
