Indonesia's Prabowo Targets Narrower Deficit While Touting Social Spending
Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is aiming to narrow the budget deficit even as as he ramps up populist welfare measures and seeks to squeeze more revenue from the country's natural resources.
Prabowo laid out his vision for Southeast Asia's biggest economy in a pair of speeches Friday, stressing he'll use the power of the state to crush corruption and utilize resources for social programs.
