JAKARTA (Reuters): Indonesian President-elect Prabowo Subianto will allow the nation's debt-to-GDP ratio to rise to 50%, provided his administration can boost tax revenue, the Financial Times reported citing one of his closest advisers.
Prabowo's brother and adviser Hashim Djojohadikusumo told the Financial Times in a London interview that Indonesia could retain its investment-grade credit rating even if the debt-to-gross domestic product (GDP) ratio rises to 50%.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
