Indonesia: Trade Surplus Will Still Continue, Economy Minister Says
TEMPO.CO, Jakarta – Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Darmin Nasution said that trade surplus produces in August 2017 will still continue in the following months.
Darmin explained that to maintain the continuity of Indonesia’s trade surplus, due attention needs to be given to winter periods in the United States and European countries.
“Surplus will still continue. We will see when winter begins in the US and Europe, how our exports will turn out. Before winter, I am not concerned since our export commodities are not winter products,” he said in Jakarta on Friday, September 15.
Darmin also projected that export performance will still be in good condition even though the exports of several commodities have not returned to normal.
