Jokowi also requested that regulations relating to government spending be simplified according to needs in times that require this extraordinary effort.

"For example in the Ministry of Defense, it could be at (Dirgantara Indonesia), buy at Pindad, buy at PAL. Those who pay here are, Cash, Cash, Cash. APBN (State Budget and State Expenditure), buy domestic products. I think the Minister also knows more about this," said Joko Widodo.

"Don't think of us, this is still in an ordinary situation. I see that this economic stimulus is not yet (complete), social assistance is decent, health still needs to be accelerated, economic stimulus both for MSMEs and the middle and big, not yet (complete)," he said.
