Energy Subsidy in the 2018 State Budget Swells to Rp153.5 Trillion

FaktaId . Government energy subsidy spending in the 2018 State Budget (APBN) has swelled around Rp59 trillion over the past year. This is because the realization of subsidized fuel, oil and gas and electricity expenditures reached Rp153.5 trillion as of January 2, 2019. In fact, the initial assumption was only Rp.94.5 trillion. Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati said that the realization of energy subsidy spending had swelled because there had been an increase in crude oil prices in the world market since the beginning of 2018. "The increase in world crude oil prices makes fuel and LPG subsidies increase from the initial assumption," Ani said, as he was familiarly called, at the Ministry of Finance on Wednesday. In addition, the increase in energy subsidy spending was also affected by the weakening of the rupiah exchange rate. The average rupiah exchange rate of Rp14,247 per US dollar (US) throughout 2018 with a depreciation rate of 6.89 percent. Not to forget, the govern...

When the Oil and Gas Business Can No Longer Become the Mainstay of the Country

PojokId . In the 1980-1990 era, Indonesia might have felt the pleasure of becoming a petroleum producing country. Indonesia's oil production at that time not only helped state revenues, but also helped the trade balance and current account. Unfortunately, this condition cannot last long enough. Oil production has declined, while consumption has increased. As a result, state revenues from oil shrank, while fuel subsidies grew. Not only that, this condition created a trade deficit in oil. In recent years, the oil deficit can no longer even be closed by a surplus on gas. As a result, the oil and gas trade balance also registered a deficit. Institute for Development And Economics And Finance (INDEF) researcher Eko Listiyanto revealed the achievement of revenues and the condition of the oil and gas trade balance were mainly influenced by domestic oil production and world oil prices. "In the past few years, the explosion in commodity prices has ended," Eko said Based on data fr...

Prabowo: We Can't Lose, If We Lost This Country Extinct

LiputanNet . Presidential candidate number 02 Prabowo Subianto ensured he had to emerge as the winner in the upcoming 2019 Presidential Election. Prabowo said that if he and his supporters did not come out as winners, then the Indonesian state could become extinct. "We cannot lose. We cannot lose. If we lose this country can be extinct," Prabowo said while delivering a speech at the Gerindra Party Confernas event held at the Sentul International Convention Center (SICC), Bogor, West Java, Monday. This extinction could occur, he said, because the elites had become more and too long in power with wrong steps and methods. According to him, this condition has caused high social inequality in Indonesia. This wrong system, according to him, must be immediately changed and resolved because the longer it will weaken the country. "And I say, if this system continues it will cause Indonesia to be weak. Indonesia is getting poorer, and increasingly powerless, even extinct," he...
