　　印尼政府否認了有關(guān)從8月17日國家獨立日開始限制購買補貼燃料的報道。能源和礦產(chǎn)資源部長阿里芬·塔斯里夫澄清說,在該日,對補貼燃料的銷售將沒有這種限制。

　　早些時候,協(xié)調(diào)海洋事務(wù)和投資部部長盧胡特潘賈丹宣布,政府將于8月17日開始收緊燃料補貼的使用,以減少分配給不合格的領(lǐng)取者的補貼。這一舉措旨在挽救預(yù)計將出現(xiàn)赤字的2024年國家預(yù)算。

　　不過,阿里芬部長說,政府仍在處理有關(guān)總統(tǒng)條例的修訂工作,并與國有企業(yè)部和財政部討論細節(jié)。將通過一項部級條例進一步規(guī)范限制計劃,該條例將具體規(guī)定有權(quán)獲得補貼燃料的車輛類型。

　　"這應(yīng)該是正確的目標,哪些車輛或類型將獲得補貼。不,不限于8月17日。但情況并非如此。

　　自2022年以來,政府一直在考慮限制補貼燃料的購買,因為由于國際油價上漲和盧比疲軟,補貼撥款已超過預(yù)算。然而,由于對該計劃對購買力的影響感到擔憂,該計劃先前被推遲。

　　專家們認為,這一舉措如果得到實施,可能會助長通貨膨脹,降低人們的購買力,從而可能造成經(jīng)濟沖擊。政府還致力于確保雅加達銷售的燃料達到歐元4排放標準,即硫含量不超過百萬分之50,低于目前的百萬分之500。

　　Indonesia delays plan to restrict subsidised fuel sales

　　The Indonesian government has dismissed reports that it plans to restrict purchases of subsidised fuel starting August 17, the country’s Independence Day. Energy and Mineral Resources Minister Arifin Tasrif clarified that there will be no such limitation on the sale of subsidised fuel on that date.

　　Earlier, Coordinating Maritime Affairs and Investment Minister Luhut Pandjaitan had announced that the government was targeting to start tightening the use of fuel subsidies on August 17, in order to reduce the amount of subsidy distribution to ineligible recipients. This move was aimed at saving the 2024 state budget, which is projected to have a deficit.

　　However, Minister Arifin stated that the government is still processing the revision of the relevant presidential regulation and discussing the details with the Ministry of State-owned Enterprises and the Ministry of Finance. The restriction scheme will be further regulated through a ministerial regulation that will specify the vehicle types entitled to subsidised fuel.

　　“It should be right on target, which vehicles or types that will get the subsidy. No, nothing is limited to August 17. This is still not the case,” Arifin said.

　　The government has been considering restricting purchases of subsidised fuel since 2022, as the subsidy allocation has exceeded the budget due to rising international oil prices and a weakening rupiah. However, the plan was previously delayed amid concerns about its impact on purchasing power.

　　Experts believe that the move, if implemented, could contribute to inflation and reduce people’s purchasing power, potentially causing economic shock. The government is also aiming to ensure that fuel sold in Jakarta meets the Euro 4 emission standard of containing no more than 50 parts per million (ppm) of sulphur, down from around 500 ppm currently.
