The finance ministry has announced plans to cut spending by 306.7 trillion rupiah, equivalent to $18.8 billion, this year. This move is expected to have a positive impact on the country's fiscal policy and budget management, while also promoting economic growth and financial discipline. Key areas of cost-cutting are likely to include infrastructure development and social welfare programs. The spending cuts are part of the government's efforts to maintain economic prudence and ensure long-term financial sustainability. By adopting austerity measures, Indonesia aims to reduce its fiscal deficit and promote economic stability.
