Indonesia's December CPI dropped to 3.35% YoY on a sluggish growth, last seen in December 2009. As the economy decided to increase the domestic retail prices of diesel and gasoline in December 2014 with a motive of drastically cutting its weakening petroleum subsidy, the Headline inflation dropped sharply than the market's expectations.
