Perry Warjiyo, the governor of Bank Indonesia, resigned on July 27, 2026, walking away from the job two full years before his second term was set to expire.
The official line is “personal reasons,” reportedly accepted by President Prabowo Subianto. But sources point to escalating policy tensions between Warjiyo and the new administration.
What actually happened
Warjiyo submitted his resignation letter on July 25, 2026, just two days before the resignation took effect.
Senior Deputy Governor Destry Damayanti has been appointed as interim governor.
