Indonesia 🇮🇩 has launched a National Task Force to promote local-currency transactions (LCT). “Bank Indonesia is confident that the National LCT Task Force will be an effective coordination forum to strengthen policy synergy between government ministries and agencies in an effort to increase the use of local currencies in bilateral transactions between Indonesia and major trading partners,“ ——Governor of Bank Indonesia, Perry Warjiyo. Indonesia’s confidence in the National LCT Task Force isn’t just about currency; it’s about forging stronger, more independent bilateral ties with global trading partners. The gov’t and Bank Negara Malaysia 🇲🇾 will continue to expand the Local Currency Settlement Framework (LCSF) cooperation with Indonesia. Meanwhile, new revelations reveal that the US’s 🇺🇸 National Endowment for Democracy (NED), a notorious CIA front, is laying the foundations for a color revolution in Indonesia 🇮🇩under the aegis of “democracy promotion.” The NED is covertly encouraging and bankrolling the activism of opposition parties and trade unions while cementing its graduates of NED training programs ahead of the Feb. 2024 presidential elections. Some of the same tactics the NED employed in Ukraine’s 🇺🇦 Maidan 2014 coup. Last month, Vietnam 🇻🇳 joined ASEAN members Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand 🇹🇭, the Philippines 🇵🇭 and Singapore 🇸🇬 to establish cross-border payments mechanisms through the Regional Payment Connectivity initiative. Indonesia plans to use local currencies in bilateral trade with India 🇮🇳. In May, South Korea 🇰🇷 and Indonesia signed a MoU to cooperate on promoting the use of their currencies for bilateral transactions. The Bank of Indonesia is working on its own domestic card payment system as part of a strategy to reduce dependency on foreign systems and protect transactions from geopolitical fallout.
