30 November 2015: Indonesia finance and health ministries mull sugar tax
Indonesian Sugar-Tax Talk Chills Drinks Industry - Health concerns may prompt curbs on the growing taste for sweet beverages in Southeast Asia’s largest economy, By Ben Otto and Anita Rachman Nov. 27, 2015; .... Finance officials in the world’s fourth most populous nation have asked the health ministry to study whether sugary drinks, including soda and Indonesia’s most popular bottled drink after water, tea, constitute a health threat, said Suahasil Nazara, head of the ministry’s Fiscal Policy Agency. That would make such drinks eligible to join an excise list of high-bracket tax items comprising tobacco—one of the country’s biggest tax contributors—and alcohol. ...Indonesia has taxed some sweetened beverages in the past under a luxury-goods tax, but stopped the practice in 2004. The taxes crippled drink makers, according to the local Beverages Industry Association, which said sales of sweetened beverages have averaged double-digit annual growth since taxes were lifted.... http://www.wsj.com/articles/indonesian-sugar-tax-talk-chills-drinks-industry-1448621453

The acknowledgement page, mostly written at the end of the journey of the writing process, seems to have become an obligatory academic ritual to mention colleagues, institutions, clients, and friends whose support and encouragement made the study possible. However, within the boundaries of the formal academy environment, this page is significant and meaningful in helping us to continue imagining ourselves as a scholarly and independent community. Here, it is important for me to convey how deeply I appreciate those who have so generously supervised, guided, taught, and volunteered to support me during the four years of my doctoral candidature. Their support and encouragement are all very precious for the completion of this thesis. I would tender my heartfelt gratitude, first and foremost, to my supervisor, Prof. Krishna Sen. I am a truly fortunate Indonesian student, having the opportunity to work under her supervision and learn directly from her expertise and critical insight on media, politics, society and culture of Indonesia. Her international reputation, many times, has privileged me both in Indonesia and in international conferences and academic forums that I have been engaged with. Particularly, her reputation among great scholars and prominent film and television makers, producers, and media officials in Jakarta smoothed the way for my fieldwork there. Her critical comments, challenging questions and enduring encouragement have become a very precious gift enabling me to learn and become an independent research student. I would like to thank Dr. Paul Genoni of the Faculty of Media, Culture and Society, and A/Prof. Barbara Milech and her team in Humanities Graduate Studies Office such as Daniel Griffin and Alicia Higgins, for administrative support. I also thank Wendy Sahanaya, who deserves app
Rahmat Gobel, Minister of Jakarta. Wednesday's cabinet reshuffle by President Joko Widodo, which saw two experienced professionals being placed into economic posts, provides hope that Indonesia can navigate the challenges arising from the slow growth environment, but most experts and the business community remain cautious over the actual impact of the move.
Joko, accompanied by Vice President Jusuf Kalla, announced the administration has dropped five ministers and reassigned one, in a brief but long-awaited cabinet reshuffle, with the aim of addressing the administration’s widely panned performance on the economic front.
The most-applauded announcement was the appointment of Darmin Nasution, a senior Finance Ministry technocrat and former Bank Indonesia governor as the coordinating minister for economic affairs, replacing Sofyan Djalil. Sofyan was moved to the ministry for national development planning, ousting Andrinof Chaniago.
In another unexpected move, Joko’s administration appointed Thomas Lembong, a Harvard-educated financial expert as trade minister, kicking out Rachmat Gobel, a veteran businessman.
The news of the cabinet reshuffle, however, was unable to lift the country’s main stock index, which fell 3.1 percent to 4,479.49 on Wednesday with all sectoral indices entering the red zone. Analysts said the index was mostly affected by the devaluation of the yuan.
Foreign investors contributed 42 percent of the trading activity, reporting a net sell of Rp 764 billion. Financial stocks were among the main victims, led by state lender Bank Rakyat Indonesia's fall of 4.4 percent to 9,700.
Yield on the government’s ten-year bonds rose to 8.8517 percent from 8.6135 percent on the day before, the Indonesia Bond Pricing Agency (IBPA) reported.
Market players relieved
The announcement was a relief for market players, said Wellian Wiranto, an economist from OCBC Bank in Singapore.
