2. Capital Inflow
Capital Inflow (net capital inflow) is the displacement of investment capital from abroad into the country. The amount of capital inflows to Indonesia, as a result of economic growth is maintained in recent years, should be used to fund long-term projects. Managing capital inflows (capital inflow) in the region is a difficult challenge faced by emerging market countries such as Indonesia because it can carry a variety of potential risks to financial stability.
As has been known, to maintain monetary stability due to capital inflow into Indonesia and the magnitude of current liquidity, the central bank implement some policies that appreciated the World Bank and IMF as an appropriate step.
The capital account that describes flow in and out of foreign exchange is not a payment for goods or services. Flows of foreign exchange are recorded in the capital account are foreign exchange in terms of capital inflows, whether in the form of investment funds or loans or foreign debt. Investments and loans from abroad are inflows. While our investments abroad and loans that we give to foreign parties recorded in outflows. Most of the foreign loans obtained by the government came from a consortium called the Consultative Group for Indonesia (CGI), which was previously named Inter Group on Indonesia (IGGI). Foreign capital flows can bring greater benefits than risks if managed correctly. It is estimated that by the end of this year, foreign capital flows into Indonesia reached around US $ 25 billion. These benefits include, reduction in interest costs the state budget, sources of private investment, financing of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and the depth of capital markets. While the risk is the reversal, the pressure and the rupiah strengthening economic bubble. The government needs to be more active to encourage private companies to go public through an initial public offering (IPO) or a rights issue. then, multiply the issuance of state bonds with various series and time period.

Forms of debt can be money raised from private banks, other governments, or international financial institutions such as the IMF and the World Bank. In the short term, foreign debt greatly assist the Indonesian government in an effort to cover the deficit budget revenues and expenditures, as a result of routine expenditure financing and spending considerable development. There are several causes of increased debt Abroad Indonesia in general, namely:
·         Current Account Deficit (TB)
TB is the ratio between the amount of payments received from abroad and the number of payments to foreigners. In other words, shows the total foreign trade operations, trade balance, and balance between export and import, transfer payments.
·         Increased investment needs.
According Sunariyah (2003: 4): "Investment is the investment for one or more of assets owned and usually long-lasting in the hope of benefit in the days to come."
·         Increased inflation.

Source Problems Swell Ratio of External Debt
Liputan6.com, Jakarta - When the position of External Debt (ED) registered decline of US $ 2.1 billion to US $ 302.4 billion in the third quarter of 2015, but the ratio of external debt or Debt Service Ratio (DSR) it has increased. Source of the problem is due to the weakening export performance. DSR end of the third quarter of 2015 reached 57.47 percent. This ratio jumped from the position as of the second quarter of 2015 amounted to 53.47 percent and 53.54 percent at the end of the third quarter of 2014.
Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs, Nasution spoke with an increase in the DSR. According to him, the decline in export performance will be followed by the increase in the ratio of external debt despite additional debt transactions nil.
"If exports fell, DRS certainly rise, although not add to the debt, let alone add. So this is not the weakening of the rupiah but exports are down," said Nasution in his office, Jakarta, Friday (20/11/2015).
He explained that the most important thing right owed in the form of foreign exchange (forex) or in foreign banks, companies must be aware of the income generated in rupiah or United States dollars (US).
"If the export-oriented company, it does not really matter because there is a natural hedge or she is a sister company or its parent outside who could back up its in foreign currency," he explained.
Nasution gave the example, PT PLN (Persero) was observed in the form of foreign currency debt, but their income in rupiah, so that the current strengthening of the dollar occurs, then the value of the debt to swell. This is the importance of hedging (hedging).
"It is important also seen in maturing debt how many years. Judging the short term, with maturities of one year to the next," said Nasution

Analysis
In the above described news that the source of the problem of foreign debt ratio to swell due to weakening export performance. Therefore the government should do in order to boost exports Indonesia Indonesia's foreign debt is reduced. As in the case presented by Nasution, PLN mistakes in borrowing money in the form of borrowing should not in the form of foreign currency rupiah so that when the US dollar strengthening occurs state debt is not significantly increased.
