FACTBOX-Indonesia's new deputy finance minister Anny Ratnawati

JAKARTA May 19 (Reuters) - Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono appointed Anny Ratnawati as the country's new deputy finance minister on Wednesday.

Ratnawati was the finance ministry's director general of budgeting. For a story on Ratnawati, click on [ID:nJAK422914]. Here are five facts about Ratnawati:

* Ratnawati, 48, worked as a lecturer at the Bogor Agriculture Institute (IPB), where Yudhoyono obtained his doctoral degree. She lectured Yudhoyono on macroeconomic issues at IPB, and went on to advise him on economic policy during his first presidential bid in 2004. She also helped to write Yudhoyono's speeches.

* She began working as a technical adviser at the finance ministry in 2005, and was promoted to director general of budgeting in 2008.

* Ratnawati was recently made a commissioner at state oil firm Pertamina, which some analysts see as a potential conflict of interest. Indonesia is phasing out the long-standing practice of appointing civil servants to sit on the boards of state firms.

* Ratnawati is not linked formally to any political party but Golkar -- the old guard political party that lobbied to have Indrawati removed and her reform agenda weakened -- was promoting her earlier this month as a good replacement for Indrawati.

* She has two daughters, plays badminton and is studying Arabic in her spare time. (Reporting by Olivia Rondonuwu, Adriana Nina Kusuma, and Fitri Wulandari, Editing by Sara Webb)
