Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati was chairing a meeting with top ministry officials when she received a call from President Prabowo Subianto's office informing her she would be replaced within an hour, two sources said, underscoring the abruptness of the longtime finance czar's sacking.
Entering office just weeks before the 2026 state budget is to be passed into law, newly appointed Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa vows to make no major changes to the draft and to maintain fiscal discipline. He also said he would learn the ins and outs of his new post from his well-regarded predecessor, Sri Mulyani Indrawati.
Details on the new premiums are still being deliberated among the Finance Ministry, Health Ministry and the Health Care and Social Security Agency (BPJS Kesehatan), before being submitted to the House of Representatives for further discussions.
