"We will provide stimulus to prevent the economy from slowing down to the extent that international institutes have predicted," she said here on Wednesday night.
Anny said the government is considering further revising the country's economic growth to 6.5 per cent from 6.7 per cent in the 2012 state budget, in view of global economic uncertainties and the increase in Indonesian crude oil price (ICP) averaging US$115 a barrel.
The lingering European crisis has led to a decline in the world's purchasing power and eventually reduced exports, one of the factors contributing to economic growth, she said.
"We have always been convinced that our exports can be increased. But it is difficult to survive if commodity prices continue to fall," she said.(IGT)
