# Indef: Kekeringan Likuiditas Sebabkan Depresiasi Rupiah

> The Indef think tank attributes rupiah depreciation to a liquidity drought in Indonesia. About 90% of export dollar receipts are used for imports, and US-dollar capital inflows fell roughly 54% in January to May 2018 compared with a year earlier. The comments came at a mid-year economic seminar in Jakarta.

## Why it matters

Persistent dollar scarcity keeps the rupiah under pressure, which raises the dollar cost of feed imports for Indonesian buyers. The analysis points to structural import dependence rather than a short-term market move.
