Despite improvements in the economy, Agus admitted that the global crisis gives impact on Indonesia, which is characterized by a deficit trade balance in 2012. "Commodity sales fell due within one year export has decreased while imports rose. Especially subsidized fuel imports rose sharply," cited Agus.
Although the tax and customs state revenue reach
980 trillion but Indonesia should remain cautious of fuel and
electricity subsidies, which may results into primary balance deficit.
"Over the last seven years the deficit in Indonesia was always 2
percent, compared with the U.S. and Japan, which are 4 to 8 percent.
However if we are not careful, it could be far from realization. It is
influenced by the exchange rate, oil lifting, and others," remarked
