On Thursday, the government announced the 12th tranche of economic policy reforms aimed at slashing the number of permits, simplifying procedures of issuing permits and cutting licensing fees to improve the countrys ease of doing business rating.
He said the global oil prices which tend to increase have helped commodity currencies, including the rupiah, to remain in the positive zone.
