The candidates - all wearing white shirts - have come to the presidential palace to be interviewed by Widodo, with most declining to confirm the positions offered ahead of an official announcement expected on Wednesday.
"Therefore, a continued policy is needed in order to be able to guard our economy from the challenge of this global slowdown," she said, noting she also discussed ways to narrow Indonesia's current account and trade deficits. She is now one of the longest serving finance ministers in Indonesia, having also held the post in the previous administration of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.
Other ministerial candidates who came to the palace on Tuesday included Basuki Hadimuljono, who is credited with driving infrastructure projects as public works minister in Widodo's first term, and Siti Nurbaya Bakar, environment minister in the first term.
