        "content": "<p>Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa\nvisited the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) today, Monday (27\/4\/2026).\nHis visit was to attend the inauguration of the Planned and Periodic\nInvestment Programme (PINTAR) for Mutual Funds organised by the\nFinancial Services Authority (OJK). During the event, Purbaya delivered\na keynote speech, alongside the OJK Commissioner Chair and Coordinating\nMinister for the Economy Airlangga Hartarto. Initially, he read from the\ntext prepared by his subordinates to deliver the keynote. However, he\nsuddenly stopped, deeming the content in the text boring. \u201cDeepening the\nnational financial market is an absolute necessity and non-negotiable.\nBored, aren\u2019t we? Feel free now,\u201d said Purbaya. It is known that Purbaya\nspoke after OJK Commissioner Chair Friderica Widyasari Dewi. Prior to\nthat, there had also been a panel discussion on the financial market.\nThe statement appeared to emerge after Purbaya observed the attending\nguests seeming bored with the overly abundant material. Therefore,\ninstead of reading the stiffly worded text, Purbaya chose to improvise\non the existing topics. This is not the first time Purbaya has done\nthis. After no longer reading the text, he mentioned that the term\nmarket deepening has been heard by him since two decades ago. However,\nin reality, it has not been realised, causing the stock market to often\nfluctuate during global economic pressures. \u201cI\u2019ve heard the term capital\nmarket deepening since 2000, and until now it\u2019s not deep. Maybe we\u2019re\nusing the wrong hoe, not digging deep enough. So now the PINTAR\nProgramme (Planned and Periodic Investment Programme) is being created.\nI don\u2019t know if this will be good or not,\u201d said Purbaya. Therefore, the\ngovernment, he said, has taken its own steps to strengthen the deepening\nof Indonesia\u2019s financial and stock markets. One of them is by\nmaintaining a solid economic foundation that can continue to grow\nrapidly over time. \u201cWe are designing faster economic growth, even\nfaster, and we are serious about it,\u201d explained Purbaya. To accelerate\ngrowth to an average target of 8% by the end of President Prabowo\nSubianto\u2019s leadership period in 2029, he said the government will hasten\nthe development agenda, so that the market can also strengthen. \u201cSo if\npreviously the economic growth was 5%, 5.5% a bit, going forward we will\ngrow even faster. Last year\u2019s growth was how much? 5.39%. The first\ngrowth might be above 5.5%,\u201d stated Purbaya.<\/p>",
