Indonesia’s Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) is continuing its investigation into the suspected misuse of Bank Indonesia’s CSR funds, with no suspects named nearly four months after the probe began.

KPK Chairman Setyo Budiyanto said the case is progressing without obstacles, as investigators examine how trillions of rupiah intended for social programs may have been funneled to lawmakers through foundations. Legislators Satori and Heri Gunawan are under scrutiny for allegedly using foundations they established to receive these funds, with KPK probing whether the money was used for public benefit or misappropriated.

ASEAN should firmly denounce President Donald Trump’s punitive tariffs ahead of the regional summit in Kuala Lumpur, urged economist Lili Yan Ing, warning that the upcoming trade hikes that are set to reach up to 49 percent in some cases by July could seriously damage ASEAN-US ties.

Despite an earlier ministerial pledge to avoid retaliation, Ing emphasized that a political statement is needed to oppose Trump’s “tariff aggression,” which she called a historic economic mistake. See more at the link in our bio.

Indonesia must craft a well-calculated strategy to navigate the escalating US-China trade war, warned senior economist Ibrahim Kholilul Rohman on Wednesday, noting that the country should avoid choosing sides while focusing on national development.

With the US imposing a 145% tariff on Chinese goods and China retaliating with a 125% tax on American products, Indonesia now faces a looming 32% US tariff on its exports and is negotiating to reduce it. Ibrahim emphasized that while Indonesia cannot ignore China's economic contributions, it also cannot fully detach from the US, given its dominance in global technology standards and trade.
