Erick Thohir: Meeting With Prabowo Discusses International Issues

Minister of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) Erick Thohir admitted that he discussed international issues when meeting with Elected President Prabowo Subianto.

"Yes, I was called by Pak Prabowo, he gave directions on how to plan for the future because of course the world situation is certainly complex, yes, we can see," said Erick after meeting with Prabowo at Kartanegara IV, South Jakarta, as reported by ANTARA, Monday, October 14.

Erick also admitted that Prabowo was given directions to deal with the situation in the context of the good of the nation.

"I am a hard worker, everyone knows, I am loyal, but what is not an easy situation, yes we must continue to encourage everything that is of course mandated," he said.

When asked whether the position Prabowo gave to Erick was the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Erick did not want to answer this. He considered Prabowo more authorized to convey this to the public.
