(Tempo) VP Jusuf Kalla: Fixed Fuel Subsidy in 2015

12/12/2018



Vice President Jusuf Kalla said that a fixed subsidy scheme for fuel will be set out in 2015. According to Kalla, the government is calculating the fixed subsidy value before submitting the proposal to the House of Representatives (DPR).

Indonesia has been mulling to implement a fixed fuel subsidy since Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's administration. However, the plan has yet to materialize.

Finance Minister Bambang Brodjonegoro said that the government is formulating appropriate policies following the downtrend in global oil prices. According to Bambang, a fixed subsidy scheme is one of the policies the government discusses.

"Later, when the 2015 Budget Amendment is proposed, there will be a clear policy regarding fuel subsidies," he said.
