The Indonesian currency, the Rupiah, has declined by 13% in 2013- by Sept. 3. It reached a level of 11,050 rupiah for one dollar on Sept 3. Economic growth has declined to 6% for the second quarter of 2013. The depreciation of the rupiah is likely to increase inflation significantly and affect the consumer spending boom in Indonesia. Indonesia had a $2.3 billion trade deficit in July 2013 after a continuing surge in imports. This will affect car prices and prices of international brands popular in the country. Toyota set the rate at 9500 rupiah to the dollar and plans to increase prices now that the rate has passed 11,000 rupiah.

Infrastructure needs in India, Indonesia, East Asia and the need for innovative financing methods 2013-2015

02/21/2010

This is high on the agenda at the G-20 meeting in Moscow in Feb 2013. India which has an estimated $191 billion in infrastructure needs annually, according to the World Bank, is pushing for this. Lower than potential growth in India of around 5% for the fiscal year ending in 2013 is a problem for the global economy, as this hurts both developed country exports and holds up growth by not freeing up bottlenecks in transportation and electricity infrastructure.
