Following US-Israeli strikes on Iran—detailed in prior coverage—that killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei and escalated Middle East tensions with oil and gold surges, Indonesian businesses are implementing short-term risk mitigations amid rising costs, while Bank Indonesia monitors inflation risks.
Coordinating Minister for the Economy Airlangga Hartarto has proposed issuing a government regulation in lieu of law (Perppu) on the 2026 state budget to President Prabowo Subianto. The proposal arises from the potential for the APBN deficit to exceed 3 percent due to surging global oil prices amid the Middle East conflict. This was presented during a full cabinet plenary session at Istana Negara in Jakarta on March 13, 2026.
