AIC 2013 Replay: Panel: Can Indonesia keep growing its domestic-driven economy?

Having weathered the global financial crisis remarkably well, the Indonesian economy has now enjoyed nine consecutive quarters of GDP growth in excess of 6%. At the same time, inflation has remained steady and the fiscal deficit firmly under control. The country now has an Investment Grade credit rating. But does the recent rapid deterioration in the current account position indicate Indonesia is enjoying too much of a good thing? Given the weaker currency and strong minimum wage rises, is inflation about to rear its ugly head again?
