JAKARTA (Reuters) – Indonesia’s central government on Wednesday ordered regional heads to keep food inflation below 5% as the recent hike in fuel prices could add 1.6%-2% to the inflation rate, a senior minister said.
Chief Economic Minister Airlangga Hartarto said in a meeting Q3 GDP growth will be at around 5.4% and the full-year GDP growth will reach 5.2%.
