Here's some interesting new details:

Purbaya Setujui Pembelian Fighter Jet Chengdu J-10, Nilainya US$ 9 M

Menteri Keuangan Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa mengonfirmasi anggaran US$ 9 miliar untuk pembelian jet tempur Chengdu J-10 dari China. Impor dijadwalkan segera.

9 billion USD for 42 J-10s, vs 8.1 billion USD for 42 Rafales.

Since the price for a J-10 is much cheaper than a Rafale, the bigger cost for the J-10 acquisition is quite something.

There is a mistake here from the journalist, the nine billion here is the overall budget for modernization, not only for J-10

A Minister but don't use Bahasa Indonesia baku, and talk as if its in a warkop.
Not big deal, but its just don't feel right and not berwibawa.

What about ToT/counter trade etc regarding J10 purchase? Is that law still in effect?

The PPA purchase doesn't seem included such thing.
