This study investigates the impact of fuel price adjusment on changes in fuel consumption and inflation in Indonesia. This study uses secondary data obtained from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Trade, Bank Indonesia, the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), and PT Pertamina (Persero) from 2006 to 2016 and analyzed by using Ordinary Least Square (OLS) method. Research showed, if the government increases Premium Gasoline's price by 10%, in average its consumption would decrease around 2,99 %. However, if the Pertamax Gasoline's price increases, the consumption of Premium Gasoline would also increase due to substitution effect. Every 10% increase in Subsidized Diesel's price, in average its consumption would decrease around 4,80 % and vice versa. However, if the Pertamina dex's price increases, the consumption of Subsidized Diesel would also increase due to substitution effect. Moreover, IDR1.000/L increase in Premium Gasoline's Price would contribute 1,10 % to the inflation rate. On the other hand, increase in Subsidized Diesel's price does not contribute to the inflation rate.

African Independence is a dynamic discussion of how African history shapes world events today. Africa has played a major role in human history, and it is impossible to understand the present condition of humanity, or our future without a consideration of Africa. Although Africa is often portrayed as a remote and impoverished area, remembered for the suffering of its people, it has played an important role in world history that is critical for understanding global events today. Tukufu Zuberi walks readers through the years of African independence through the present. The documentary discusses colonialism, the impact of the world wars, independence movements, the Cold War, ethnic conflict, terrorism, the health crisis, and more. The documentary weaves personal interview excerpts with people ranging from World War Two veterans, freedom fighters, to Heads of State into the arc of African and world history. Providing context for understanding events such as civil war, terrorism, and development aid, African Independence argues that it is impossible to understand our current world situation, or our future, without considering Africa. The award-winning documentary accompanies the book African Independence: how Africa shapes the world.
