JAKARTA - The Presidential Communication Office has denied rumours of Finance Minister Sri Mulyani's resignation. This was conveyed by Hariqo Wibawa Satria, Presidential Communication Spokesperson, on the Presidential Communication Office (PCO) Instagram account, Tuesday (18/3).

"We would like to emphasise that the information circulating regarding Sri Mulyani's resignation as Minister of Finance is untrue or a hoax," he said.
