After a six-month period of either deflation or very low inflation (all driven by easing food prices), the month of November finally brought some more significant inflation to Indonesia as we approach the end of 2024 (meaning: arrival of the festive season).

It is always important to be aware of the direct (and close) link between a country’s population and national economy.
