INDUSTRY.co.id - Jakarta - Application of Biodiesel is one of the instruments to drive the rate of imports, especially fuel oil (BBM). This is very useful for maintaining the rupiah exchange rate.

"The use of B20 is the way the government overcomes the rupiah turmoil because it restrains the import of fuel," said Deputy Chairman of the House of Representatives Commission VI Dito Ganindut in Jakarta, Thursday (09/06/2018).

Yesterday, the rupiah at Bank Indonesia's middle exchange rate was corrected 0.59% to Rp 14,927 per US dollar.
