00:00:47residents. Exposure to forest fire smoke can trigger
00:00:51eye irritation, coughing, and respiratory problems.
00:00:54Exposure to smoke is very dangerous for children, pregnant women, and the
00:00:57elderly. From the Ispu
00:01:00application of the Ministry of Environment, the air quality in
00:01:03Kotim was in the dangerous category at
00:01:08the World Food Day, which is 8 AM. Meanwhile, the impact of the haze forces drivers to be more
00:01:12careful due to limited visibility.
00:01:15The public is urged to be vigilant because exposure to smoke can threaten
00:01:18health. The government also urges the public to reduce
00:01:22outdoor activities when air quality deteriorates,
00:01:25use masks, and seek medical attention immediately
00:01:29if experiencing respiratory
00:01:31problems.

00:08:04Arsir.
00:08:28Alright, thank you. We would like to move on to other information, viewers,
00:08:31regarding the Ministry of Finance which reported the realization of the State
00:08:35Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBN) performance until September
00:08:382026 experienced a deficit of 319
00:08:43trillion or 1.24% of the gross domestic
00:08:47product. Although it surged compared to the previous month, the
00:08:50deficit figure was lower compared to the same period last
00:08:53year. In the APBN Performance and Facts press conference,
00:08:57Finance Minister Suahasil Nazara explained that
00:09:00the deficit occurred due to higher
00:09:03realization of state expenditure compared to state revenue recap.
00:09:06The realization of state expenditure until September 2026 was recorded
00:09:10at 2,660
00:09:13trillion, or 69.2% of
00:09:16the annual target. This figure jumped 19% compared
00:09:20to the same period last year, while the realization
00:09:23of state revenue was recorded at
00:09:252,341.5 trillion, or
00:09:2974.2% of the total ceiling for 2026,
00:09:32an increase of 25.5% compared to last
00:09:36year. The Ministry of Finance also noted that the primary
00:09:39balance of the APBN still had a surplus of... September
00:09:502026
00:09:57that until September 2026 state revenue
00:10:00was 2,341.5 trillion,
00:10:0474.2% of the target, growing
00:10:0725.5% from last year. State expenditure was
00:10:1069.2,
00:10:132,660.5 trillion,
00:10:1569.2% of the ceiling and grew 19%.
00:10:19The deficit is currently 1.2% of
00:10:23GDP, so this is on track. We are heading towards the implementation
00:10:27of the APBN, which from the beginning, since
00:10:30it was stipulated, was designed for a deficit. Now,
00:10:33the deficit, if you remember last month's data,
00:10:37you can see again that last month's deficit was
00:10:410.9%. This year, as of
00:10:44the end of September, it's 1.2%.
00:10:47We will eventually reach a deficit of around 2.8%
00:10:50at the end of the year. The Ministry of Finance reported the realization
00:10:54of total state expenditure until September 2026 reached
00:10:57Rp2,660.5 trillion, or grew
00:11:0119% year-on-year compared to the same
00:11:04period in the previous year. This figure is only equivalent
00:11:07to 69.2% of the APBN target this year of
00:11:10Rp3,844.2 trillion. Finance
00:11:14Minister Suahasil Nazara explained that the increase in state expenditure was influenced by
00:11:18the swelling realization of Ministry and agency spending, which
00:11:21rose 33.5% to.
00:11:55in the APBN target, this allocation is dominated by
00:11:58pension payments, subsidies, and
00:12:01fuel and electricity compensation totaling
00:12:03991.9
00:12:06trillion. The APBN as of September
00:12:10increased by 19% to 2,660.5
00:12:12trillion, around
00:12:1669% of the APBN target.
00:12:203/4 of the year has
00:12:22been realized at 69.2 percent. This is healthy and
00:12:26on track because we see that usually
00:12:29indeed, if we look at previous years, just last year,
00:12:33as of September 30, only 61%
00:12:36was spent. This year, as of September 30,
00:12:40we have already spent 69%. There is
00:12:43an acceleration of spending, and this is healthy because we really do not
00:12:46want state spending to be too
00:12:50concentrated in December. If it can be
00:12:53smoother, and this is what has started to happen.
00:12:56Viewers, we invite you to monitor the movement of the Composite
00:13:00Stock Price Index of the Indonesia Stock Exchange at the beginning of
00:13:04the week with our colleague Insan Suwardi, who will report live
00:13:07from the Indonesia Stock Exchange in
00:13:10Jakarta. Insan, what caused the Composite Stock
00:13:14Price Index this morning to move quite sideways and also
00:13:17fluctuate?
00:13:21Jessica, if we look at the opening of stock trading at the beginning
00:13:25of this week from the Indonesian capital market at the Indonesia Stock Exchange, we
00:13:29observe that it tends to move slightly sideways. If we look at it this
00:13:33morning at 9:00, the index opened, continuing the strengthening
00:13:36trend, where at the close last week, the index, if we look
00:13:40at it on October 9, closed stronger or rebounded by
00:13:441.04%. It seems that the movement this morning until
00:13:47now, 10:13 Western Indonesian time, the index is still tending to move
00:13:51quite volatile. We observed it several times, and it was still able to stay in the
00:13:55green zone, but currently, we observe from the board of the Indonesia Stock Exchange, we will see together,
00:13:59Jessica, until 10:13 Western Indonesian time, the index
00:14:02is still moving in the correction
00:14:04zone of 0.85%, equivalent to 53 points
00:14:08of weakening, or currently the index is at the level of 6.43
00:14:12with a transaction value that is still quite thin at Rp3.1 trillion.
00:14:15Jessica, if we also look at how the analysts view the
00:14:19capital market movement today, for example, Navan Aji Gusta predicts
00:14:23that the index is still capable of having
00:14:25the potential to continue the strengthening trend, which, if we look at it at the end
00:14:29of last week, the index experienced a rebound of 1.04%,
00:14:33which is not separate from various sentiments affecting policy
00:14:36or positive sentiment that will be able to drive strengthening
00:14:40or the potential for a closing that will close stronger
00:14:43at the end of the day later, starting from the easing of tensions in
00:14:47the Middle East, triggered by the statement of US President
00:14:50Donald Trump who mentioned that he would not attack Iran before the midterm
00:14:54elections on November 3. So, if we also look
00:14:57at the impact from the Middle East, we observe that the movement of crude
00:15:01oil prices, both Brent and WTI, is currently slightly
00:15:05softer, where the movement of Brent crude oil prices is currently
00:15:08experiencing a correction or weakening of 1.7%, which is at
00:15:12102 dollars per barrel, followed by
00:15:15WTI crude oil prices or West Texas Intermediate, which are currently
00:15:19also slightly down at the level of 89 dollars
00:15:23per barrel. Yes, if we also look at the impact of other sentiments related
00:15:27to the strengthening of the rupiah exchange rate, which we currently observe, the rupiah exchange
00:15:30rate is still experiencing strengthening or currently its currency against
00:15:34the US dollar, we observe, is still slightly stronger
00:15:37by 0.05%, at the level of
00:15:4017,879
00:15:43per US dollar. Besides that, Jessica, there is
00:15:46positive sentiment coming from within the country regarding news that Danantara will
00:15:50make additional investments in the Indonesian capital market of 1 billion
00:15:54dollars by the end of this year, providing a positive catalyst for
00:15:57market movement today.
00:16:00However, if we also look at the board of the Indonesia Stock Exchange, which this morning
00:16:04indeed, the sentiment related to sell-offs by investors, which
00:16:07if we look at it year to date, the figure still reaches 111
00:16:11trillion in the Indonesian capital market, can give rise to
00:16:15concerns regarding how market players will tend to be more careful
00:16:18in making their exposures in the Indonesian capital market. Besides that,
00:16:22from other sentiments, they will pay attention to how
00:16:25the review will be re-announced by Morgan Stanley Capital International
00:16:29regarding the improvement of the Indonesian capital market on November 11.
00:16:33Jessica, thank you, Insan Suar, for your live
00:16:37report from the Indonesia Stock Exchange
00:16:39in Jakarta.
00:16:41Viewers, let's move on to information regarding
00:16:45commemorated every October 16. The Sustainable Food System
00:16:48Coalition held the Sustainable Food Footprint Festival 2026
00:16:52at Taman Lapangan Banteng, Jakarta. This festival serves
00:16:55as an educational event for the public as well as promoting sustainable
00:16:59food security. Entering its third year of implementation,
00:17:02the Sustainable Food Footprint Festival brings together various stakeholders
00:17:06to discuss the Indonesian Food system from
00:17:09upstream to downstream. Through various educational activities
00:17:13and community involvement, the public is invited to understand that the
00:17:17issue of food is not only related to availability and consumption,
00:17:20but also includes production, distribution, and
00:17:24system sustainability. The government
00:17:26believes that food security requires collaboration from various parties, from
00:17:30the government, business actors, communities, to the public. This effort
00:17:34is expected to strengthen the national system as well as mend'.
00:17:43So that's where we
00:17:46want in the next 20 years to be able to
00:17:49move towards an ecoregion system that is
00:17:52based on potential and also local
00:17:55wisdom. And furthermore, in the
00:17:59pouring for the midterm development plan
00:18:02or the medium-term development framework,
00:18:06we also place it as one
00:18:09of the development
00:18:12priorities until 2029.
00:18:16Viewers, the business zone will return after a break, stay with
00:18:19us.
00:21:24Indonesia and Egypt continue to strengthen bilateral relations through cooperation
00:21:28in various fields. The warmth of President Prabowo Subianto with
00:21:32the Egyptian President was also visible when President Prabowo personally
00:21:35escorted the departure of Egyptian President Abdel Fattah
00:21:39El-Sisi after completing his visit to
00:21:41Indonesia. A warm and friendly atmosphere
00:21:45colored the farewell ceremony for the state visit of Egyptian President
00:21:49Abdel Fatah.
00:22:20cooperation agreements in various fields. Egypt also invites
00:22:23Danantara to cooperate in the field of palm oil downstreaming
00:22:27or Crude Palm Oil or CPO, and according to
00:22:30Rosan, Egypt has prepared land for the construction
00:22:33of a CPO refinery facility.
00:22:36The two countries also target bilateral trade to increase
00:22:40to 5 billion US dollars by 2030.
00:22:44mendatang.
00:22:47Yeah, not for our investment. And cooperation between
00:22:51someone with their future and also
00:22:55cooperation for what in
00:22:58the field of palm
00:23:01oil CPO and land has been provided
00:23:05there to build a palm oil refinery also because they also import
00:23:08a lot of palm oil from Indonesia, and also
00:23:12cooperation later in other fields, maybe that's
00:23:15the main thing first, not yet, I have to talk directly
00:23:19about investment. Oh, that's for
00:23:23up to 2030 for trade between the two
00:23:27countries, expected to be billions of US dollars by
00:23:292030. Okay, President Prabowo Subianto
00:23:33and Egyptian President Abdul Fatah El-Sisi have agreed
00:23:36on a number of collaborations in a bilateral meeting last Sunday
00:23:40at the State Palace. This cooperation covers the economic,
00:23:43trade, maritime, and education sectors. And for
00:23:46more details, we join Metro TV journalist Kautsar. Rabo and cameraman
00:23:50Maulana Ridwan from the Presidential Palace
00:23:54Jakarta. Kautsar, what are the results of the agreement between the two heads
00:23:57of state?
00:24:01Yes, good morning viewers, it is true that there has
00:24:05been an agreement reached between President Prabowo
00:24:08Subianto and President Abdul Fatah El-Sisi during
00:24:11their meeting at the Presidential Palace last
00:24:15Sunday, October 11, 2026, where
00:24:18in the bilateral meeting and joint press statement, President Prabowo
00:24:22Subianto conveyed that the two countries have
00:24:26agreed to push for the trade status
00:24:29to become an Economic Partnership Agreement or
00:24:33EPA. With this EPA, it is hoped that it will
00:24:37eliminate tariff and non-tariff
00:24:40barriers and will open up market access
00:24:43for Indonesian commodities as widely as possible
00:24:46to the Egyptian region and will also integrate the private
00:24:50sector. And with this EPA, it will also later
00:24:54be an opportunity for Indonesia to
00:24:57spread superior Indonesian commodities to
00:25:01Egypt. It is known that Egypt is a gateway
00:25:04for Indonesian products to be distributed to the
00:25:08African continent, Europe,
00:25:11and the Middle East, which also reminds that
00:25:15currently there is conflict in the Middle East and it also impacts
00:25:18the sea. And also this
00:25:22is an effort or a fresh breeze for the Indonesian private
00:25:25sector which will later distribute its superior
00:25:28products to the private sector or to the
00:25:32European region. This can be through Egypt if this
00:25:35EPA has been agreed upon and cooperated
00:25:39between the two countries. And with
00:25:42this EPA, it will also later optimize the trade
00:25:45balance between the two countries. And it is known that currently
00:25:49the trade balance between the two countries has indeed
00:25:52experienced a significant increase in the last
00:25:565 years. The trade balance grew by approximately 5.77%
00:26:00to 6.16% in the last
00:26:035 years, and in 2025 the trade
00:26:07balance reached 2.38
00:26:092,38
00:26:11billion US dollars with a positive trend
00:26:15and a surplus for Indonesia of
00:26:171.50 billion US
00:26:20dollars. And for this year 2026,
00:26:24from January to June, the figure also
00:26:28increased to 1.74
00:26:31billion US dollars. This means that it is also a surplus
00:26:34and positive for Indonesia. There are
00:26:38exported from Indonesia to Egypt, including
00:26:41CPO or palm oil, then coffee, tea, and
00:26:45organic chemical sectors, where CPO or palm oil has
00:26:49the largest portion of 50%. And
00:26:52as for Indonesia's import commodities from
00:26:56Egypt, they include
00:26:59fertilizers, salt, and agricultural products.
00:27:02In addition to promoting trade status to EPA,
00:27:06the two countries or two heads of state also encourage or agree
00:27:09to the formation of a joint investment
00:27:12fund or a joint
00:27:15investment fund where the CEO of the fund
00:27:18and also Investment Minister Rostan Lostanis
00:27:22has also stated that his party, through Danantara,
00:27:25will collaborate with a fund or
00:27:28a state-owned company from Egypt, which in this case is a fund.
00:27:32Rostan did not provide details about which Egyptian
00:27:36investment fund will cooperate with Danantara, because
00:27:39indeed, considering that Egypt has many
00:27:43investment institutions, the latest one being formed
00:27:46in 2026 is Al-Nilfan. However,
00:27:49professionals state that the first
00:27:52project will collaborate with the Egyptian investment fund
00:27:56in the field of palm oil. That's
00:27:58all, back to the studio.
00:28:03Yes, Kautsar, one more thing, you just mentioned the trade
00:28:06balance, which until this year
00:28:10is still in surplus for Indonesia. What about the future
00:28:13target?
00:28:14Yes,
00:28:17the future target, indeed, President El-Sisi has stated
00:28:21that the target for 2030
00:28:24is 5 billion US dollars
00:28:28or approximately 85
00:28:31to 89
00:28:34trillion for 2030, where
00:28:37this target becomes a joint effort between
00:28:41Indonesia and Egypt to stabilize the trade
00:28:44balance, where it is also known that with this
00:28:48cooperation or target, it also becomes an effort or an increase
00:28:52in cooperation in terms of the Joint Investment Fund that we mentioned
00:28:55earlier, where Danantara will collaborate
00:28:58with Egypt's investment fund to.
00:29:33the same thing that makes this deal
00:29:36is really good. You know three things: sympathy is definitely
00:29:40smooth, 5G signal is smooth, video calls via
00:29:435G signal are definitely smooth, making people
00:29:46solid to win. It's definitely comfortable, the quota
00:29:50is definitely comfortable with rollover quota, remaining
00:29:52quota doesn't know old dates, it's definitely
00:29:55for you, entertainment. If it's a duet, there are definitely many entertainment
00:29:59options. Yes, that's because entertainment is from Simpan.
