In Jakarta, the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, said President Prabowo Subianto will become the first Indonesian president to deliver a speech on the Macro Economic Framework and the Key Fiscal Policy (KEM-PPKF) in a plenary session of the House of Representatives. The president is scheduled to attend the DPR plenary session at the Parliament Complex in Jakarta on Wednesday, 20 May 2026.

‘I just checked earlier; perhaps this is the first time,’ Dasco said at the Parliament Complex in Jakarta, on Tuesday, 19 May 2026.

He said, in principle, ministers who previously spoke on the KEM-PPKF did so on behalf of the president. Therefore, he added, a president can also convey this matter directly.

‘That is permissible. This serves as an introduction to the preparation of the APBN 2027,’ Dasco said.

The DPR plenary session is planned to be held in Gedung Nusantara, or the ‘turtle building’. DPR staff are currently preparing for the meeting.

The DPR has also published the agenda for tomorrow’s plenary session. Here is the list of its agendas:

  1. The delivery of the Macro Economic Framework (KEM) and the Key Fiscal Policy (PPKF) for the RAPBN of the 2027 fiscal year by the Government.

  2. The Legislative Body’s report on the Evaluation of the Second Amendment to the Priority Prolegnas Bill for 2026, followed by a decision.

  3. The opinions of the Factions on the Draft Law Proposed by Commission III on Amendments to Law Number 2 of 2002 on the Indonesian National Police, followed by a decision to become a DPR-proposed Bill.
