Hello #DataFriends,

One of the routine activities carried out by TPID is attending the inflation control coordination meeting held virtually by the Indonesian Ministry of Home Affairs which was broadcast in the OKU Regency Government Vicon Room. The meeting was attended by the Head of the Economic Division, Head of Service, Head of BUMD and Head of vertical OPD or representative. The speakers for this meeting came from various agencies such as BPS RI, Presidential Staff Office, Ministry of Trade, Ministry of Agriculture, BULOG, Indonesian Prosecutor's Office. POLRI, etc. This meeting discussed the evaluation of developments in commodity prices that influence inflation.
Indonesia's inflation is ranked 73rd out of 186 countries in the world, ranked 14th
24 G20 countries and ranked 6th out of 11 Asean countries (sorted from lowest to highest inflation rate). Nationally, May versus April experienced deflation of 0.03 percent. Based on the Price Development Index for the 1st week of June 2024, the OKU Regency IPH experienced deflation of 1.37 percent. The commodities that contributed the most to changes in the IPH of OKU Regency were purebred chicken meat, shallots and powdered milk for toddlers. Commodities contributing the largest contribution to the increase in IPH on Sumatra Island on Sunday 1 June were red chilies, purebred chicken meat and shallots. In June 2024, there is momentum for a national religious holiday (HBKN), namely Eid al-Adha 1445 H. Historically, the HBKN for Eid al-Adha is relatively lower. Commodities that usually contribute to inflation during Eid al-Adha are red chilies, cayenne peppers, shallots, purebred chicken eggs and air freight rates. Regional governments need to be vigilant about these commodities to avoid significant price increases.
