Through these various policies, economic activity can circulate faster, the real sector can move more strongly, thereby encouraging increased consumption and stimulating investment to drive a higher economic growth rate,” Purbaya said during his speech at the Plenary Session on Tuesday (9/6/2026).
Purbaya continued, noting that Indonesia’s economic growth in 2027 is predicted to grow by 5.8% to 6.5%, serving as a transition towards 8% economic growth in 2029.

Furthermore, national inflation will be maintained within the range of 1.5% to 3.5% in 2027, through the synergy of fiscal and monetary policies to maintain the supply and price stability of commodities, particularly food and energy.
“The government also continues to anticipate the risk of imported inflation through coordination with the central bank (Bank Indonesia/BI). In addition, the synergy and coordination of central and regional governments with monetary authorities through central and regional inflation control teams continue to be strengthened to ensure the effectiveness of inflation control,” Purbaya explained.
