VIDEO: Government Affirms No Debt Problems For Bali's G20 Presidency

JAKARTA - The government through the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) firmly stated that Indonesia is ready to carry out the mandate as President of the G20 during the next 2022 period, including in dealing with the issue of state debt.

Head of the Fiscal Policy Agency (BKF) of the Ministry of Finance, Febrio Kacaribu, said that the government is not at all bothered by the issue of debt in chairing the G20 forum next year. According to him, Indonesia has a solid state financial foundation and is still in a fairly safe corridor.

"Indonesia's debt has no problem," he said in a webinar entitled G20 Presidency Benefits for Indonesia and the World, Monday, December 6.

Febrio added that this belief was reflected in the government's steps to optimally maintain the health of the State Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBN) in the pre-pandemic period.
