JAKARTA - Minister of Finance (Menkeu) Sri Mulyani is scheduled to give a presentation on the realization of the latest APBN for the period of May 2022 in the evening.

From the information disclosed internally by the Ministry of Finance, it was noted that the Deputy Minister of Finance, Suahasil Nazara, would also attend accompanied by echelon 1 officials.

As previously reported by VOI, the performance of this year's state budget has produced brilliant results. This is reflected in the book surplus since January 2022 with IDR 28.9 trillion. This was followed by February with a surplus of Rp. 19.7 trillion, a surplus of Rp. 10.3 trillion in March, and a surplus of Rp. 103.1 trillion in April.

Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani herself had sent an implied message that the positive record would still continue.

"So our state revenue shows an unusually high growth until the end of April, and we estimate that until the end of May it will still last," he said during a working meeting with the DPD RI some time ago.

Meanwhile, the signal for the APBN surplus towards the middle of the year is at least driven by several basic assumptions. First, the revenue sector, which continues to thrive, is supported by high commodity prices. The second is the personnel expenditure side, which usually takes up quite a large budget in THR payments, which was carried out at the end of last April.

The government in the 2022 State Budget Law has set a revenue target of IDR 1,846.1 trillion with an expenditure of IDR 2,714.2 trillion. Thus, the budget deficit is pegged at IDR 868 trillion or 4.85 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP).
