        "summary": "Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa has confirmed that the government has no immediate plans to revise the 2026 State Budget (APBN), despite global economic uncertainty, citing sufficient state revenue collection to support government spending. The government designed the 2026 budget with a planned deficit to provide fiscal space for stimulating economic activity, and is accelerating budget execution early in the year to maximise economic impact. Whilst remaining prepared to adjust fiscal policy if global pressures intensify, Purbaya emphasised the government's strong fiscal position provides adequate policy flexibility to maintain economic stability and protect household purchasing power.",
        "content": "<p>Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa has assured the public that the\ngovernment has no plans to revise the 2026 State Budget (Anggaran\nPendapatan dan Belanja Negara, APBN) despite ongoing global economic\nuncertainty.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere have been many questions from the media asking whether the\ngovernment will soon change its budget. Not yet. From the perspective of\nstate revenue, conditions remain reasonably good,\u201d Purbaya said during a\npress conference on the APBN for February 2026 at his office in Central\nJakarta on Wednesday, 11 March 2026.<\/p>\n<p>According to Purbaya, the government does not yet see an urgent need\nto modify the budget structure. He assessed that state revenue\ncollection remains relatively robust, enabling it to support government\nexpenditure.<\/p>\n<p>The 2026 APBN, Purbaya noted, was deliberately designed with a\ndeficit from the outset to provide the government with fiscal space to\nstimulate economic activity. The government is also working to\naccelerate budget spending from the beginning of the year so that its\nbenefits can be felt more quickly by society and the business\nsector.<\/p>\n<p>Purbaya stated that the government is currently pushing for more\nevenly distributed state spending throughout the year to ensure that\ngovernment expenditure has a more optimal impact on the economy. The\ngovernment remains prepared with contingency measures should global\neconomic pressures intensify and potentially affect domestic fiscal\nconditions. According to him, adjustments to fiscal policy, including\nchanges to the APBN, remain possible if future economic circumstances\nwarrant such action.<\/p>\n<p>Purbaya said the government is beginning the budget year from a\nfiscal position deemed sufficiently strong, with policy space still\navailable if needed. For this reason, he called on the public not to be\noverly concerned about the government\u2019s fiscal condition. He emphasised\nthat APBN management remains directed at maintaining economic stability\nwhilst protecting household purchasing power.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the government continues to monitor developments in the\nenergy sector, particularly oil and gas production. Optimisation of oil\nand gas extraction is expected to support state revenue and strengthen\nfiscal resilience over the coming years.<\/p>",
