Indonesias inflation even declined in November but remained above target$10,000 in the coming year

December 6, 2022: In November, Indonesia’s inflation eased but stayed over the central bank’s target range for the sixth consecutive month between rising food prices and increased transport fares, official data showed on Thursday.

The headline annual inflation rate, which reduces to 5.42% in November, reached 5.71% in October and 5.50% anticipated by analysts polled. Bank Indonesia’s inflation target range is 2% to 4%.

The annual core inflation rate, excluding government-controlled and volatile food prices, increased to 3.30% from 3.31% in October. The Reuters poll had anticipated a rate of 3.40%.

The most significant contributors to inflation were fuel prices, airfares and inner-city transport costs, Seitan, the deputy head of Statistics Indonesia, told reporters after fuel price adjustments in September.

Meanwhile, he said the price of rice, staple foodstuffs in Indonesia, was still rising in the previous month. Therefore, the pace had slowed.

Bank Indonesia is maintaining a front-loaded and pre-emptive interest rate policy in the coming year to control inflation, governor Perry Warjiyo said.

Wednesday at the central bank’s annual meeting with fiscal sector stakeholders.

BI sought to manage inflation anticipation, which Warjiyo said remained high, and steer core prices back into its target range within the initial half of 2023.

A definite ‘NO’ to the question if struggling families had child care asked by a group of committed volunteers in the San Fernando Valley in 1974, urged the volunteers to look for a way to support families struggling to find quality child care, development, and education services for their families. That year, the San Fernando Valley Child Care Consortium and the Mayor’s Child Care and Junior Task Force proposed the first child care resource center in the San Fernando Valley. Doris McLain was elected chairperson as Mayor Bradley accepted the proposal and gave the newly founded Child Care Resource Center (CCRC) space in Van Nuys City Hall Center. CCRC began 45 years to help working moms find child care.
