JAKARTA : Senior Indonesian minister Luhut Pandjaitan said on Friday prices of 90-octane gasoline and subsidised liquefied petroleum gas in 3-kg cannisters may be increased to reflect higher global energy prices, news sites Detik and Kompas reported.
Luhut said following the increase in Pertamax, the price of Pertamina's 90-octane gasoline known as Pertalite could be raised, followed by LPG in 3-kg cannisters, the reports said. Indonesia's inflation rate hit a two-year high in March, official data showed on Friday, as economists warned prices would creep up further as the government raised gasoline prices and the value-added tax rate.
