Jakarta (ANTARA) – Indonesia's chief economic minister Airlangga Hartarto said the economy and fuel supplies remain stable despite global uncertainty triggered by escalating Middle East tensions involving the US, Israel, and Iran.Rising geopolitical risks have disrupted global supply chains, but Indonesia's strong economic fundamentals are expected to cushion the impact, allowing Southeast Asia's largest economy to maintain fiscal and macroeconomic stability.”The national economy remains stable with solid fundamentals. Fuel stocks are secure and fiscal stability is maintained,” Airlangga said at a virtual press conference in Jakarta on Tuesday.To maintain stability and reassure the public, the government introduced new measures aimed at reducing fuel consumption while sustaining productivity across public institutions and broader economic activity.The government will implement a work-from-home policy for civil servants every Friday as part of efforts to curb fuel use and improve efficiency.Authorities will also cut official vehicle usage by up to 50 percent, excluding operational and electric vehicles, while domestic business travel will be reduced by 50 percent and international trips by 70 percent.The work-from-home policy could save about Rp6.2 trillion (US$365 million) in the state budget from fuel compensation, while broader reductions in public fuel consumption may yield savings of up to Rp59 trillion.State energy company PT Pertamina said there would be no adjustment in fuel prices, both subsidized and non-subsidized, in line with government directives.Vice President of Corporate Communication Muhammad Baron said the company is ready to support government policies to maintain economic stability amid a global energy crisis.”Pertamina is ready to implement government policies to safeguard national economic stability during global energy pressures,” Baron said.He added the company's priority is ensuring energy availability and optimizing supply chains to guarantee nationwide distribution.Pertamina Patra Niaga, the company's downstream arm, is taking strategic steps to maintain smooth energy distribution across the country.These include strengthening coordination and negotiations with suppliers, as well as improving distribution systems to secure supply availability for consumers.The company said it will continue maximizing efforts to ensure service reliability and the continuity of national energy distribution amid ongoing global volatility.Corporate Secretary Roberth M.V. Dumatubun said Pertamina Patra Niaga remains committed to implementing government policies, including those related to fuel pricing.He added that supplier negotiations and distribution optimization are key strategies to ensure consistent energy availability for the public.”We urge people to use energy wisely and avoid misinformation that could trigger panic buying,” Roberth said.Authorities also called on the public to rely on verified information and maintain normal consumption patterns to support stable energy distribution nationwide.
