Inflation Rate of Indonesia

Indonesia's inflation in November rose at slower pace, giving more rooms for the central bank to put its benchmark interest rate on hold, an official said Monday.

Head of the National Statistic Bureau named only Suryamin announced here on Monday that consumer price index (inflation) eased at 4.32 percent from a year ago, versus 4.61 in October.

Indonesian economy grew by 6.17 percent in the three month ending in September, the bureau has said.

Indonesian Coordinating Minister for Economy Hatta Rajasa told Xinhua that the government expects 6.4 percent GDP for the final quarter, putting the whole year economic growth expectation to at least 6.3 percent.

Indonesia's economy grew by 6.37 percent and 6.3 percent in the first two quarters respectively, according to the bureau.

The central bank plans would hold a meeting at December 11 to make a decision on the basic rate after it kept the rate at 5.75 percent at the beginning of November for the ninth straight months.

Growing investment and huge consumption have countered decline on exports amid the global economic slowdown.

The central bank said that it expects the inflation to be in the range of 3.5 percent to 5.5 percent this year and next year.

Indonesian investment increased significantly by 25.1 percent to 81.8 trillion rupiah (some 8.5 billion U.S dollars) in the third quarter on yearly basis, Chairman of the Investment Coordinating Board M. Chatib Basri, said.

Buried Treasures in Bohol Philippines

Written by Joe Espiritu       Four persons died in a treasure hunting accident last week. They died for nothing. Many had lost their shirts in the venture, the propensity for Filipinos to get rich quick attribute to the treasure hunting mania. The sad part is that only the ignorant venture on the search, those in the know, being sure that nothing will come out of the effort would not think of investing money, time and effort – this time lives – in a fruitless enterprise.        There had been stories of people getting rich uncovering treasure troves in unlikely places. Most stories are false. Ancient graves of archeological and anthropological value had been desecrated by treasure hunters. They had found nothing. Those people may have struck it rich but not from some hidden riches. Contrary to what other people say, there are no buried treasures in Bohol . If there had been, they were unearthed years ago.         If one ...

Has it occurred to you that how fast your page loads may have a direct effect on how your site ranks in Google?  Don't worry, it hasn't had an impact...yet. In an interview with WebProNews , Google's Matt Cutts told us that speed may soon be a ranking factor.  "Historically, we haven't had to use it in our search rankings, but a lot of people within Google think that the web should be fast," says Cutts. "It should be a good experience, and so it's sort of fair to say that if you're a fast site, maybe you should get a little bit of a bonus. If you really have an awfully slow site, then maybe users don't want that as much." "I think a lot of people in 2010 are g...
