Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani Indrawati confirmed that she would pass on a credible State Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBN) to the next government.

"We are responsible for ensuring that we will leave a strong and credible budget legacy," Sri Mulyani said at the Mandiri Investment Forum in Jakarta, quoted from Antara, Wednesday, March 6.

That way, continued Sri Mulyani, the next government can continue the baton from the foundation that has been built by the Ministry of Finance during the current government period.

In addition, the next government can also achieve their development goals in accordance with the political promises they have made.

Sri Mulyani said that the transition to government, as will be experienced by Indonesia in the future, is not the first time this has happened in this country.

Therefore, Sri Mulyani is not too worried about the transition period of future government.

Even so, he reminded the next government of a number of things.

First, managing the economy related to fiscal policy is a combination of ambitions to achieve progress and at the same time ensure that the foundation is still strong and healthy.

"If we forget one side, then we will be faced with risks, whether we are too complacent with our reform efforts or too conservative so that we cannot reach a fairly good level of growth," he said.

In addition, he also appealed to the next government to maintain the fiscal state that continues to channel the aspirations of the people.

He said politics and the economy are both related to the hopes and aspirations of the people who want to live a better life.

"Realizing people's aspirations is also part of the foundation that we must build, ensuring that our country continues to grow better, higher, fairer, and more equal without sacrificing the quality or quality of the foundation we have," he said.
