Just Two Weeks As Coordinating Minister, AHY Admits He Wants To Learn To Experts In Infrastructure-Construction
JAKARTA - Coordinating Minister (Menko) for Regional Infrastructure and Development Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) admitted that he would learn about the scope of work he currently holds.
This was revealed by AHY because he had only served for about two weeks as Coordinating Minister for Regional Infrastructure and Development. Moreover, it is a ministry recently formed by the Government of President Prabowo Subianto.
AHY admitted that he would not be ashamed to learn from experienced figures.
"Now on November 6, President Prabowo Subianto was sworn in on October 20 and ministers or the Red and White Cabinet were sworn in on October 21. This means that we have only been working for about 15 days," AHY said at the opening of the 2024 Indonesian Construction event at ICE BSD, Tangerang Regency, Banten, monitored online on Wednesday, November 6.
"I myself always said I would not be ashamed, shy, hesitant, to say I wanted to learn. I want to learn quickly from the figures, from experts and comedians in the infrastructure sector so far," he continued.
He considered that work in terms of infrastructure and regional development throughout Indonesia was not an easy thing and needed hard work together.
According to him, infrastructure and regional development is one of President Prabowo Subianto's focuses. So, in the end, a special Coordinating Ministry (Kemenko) was formed.
Furthermore, AHY hopes that all levels in the government and related actors in the infrastructure sector can work together to achieve the targets set by the government.
"Of course we appreciate it because for the first time in the history of the government there is a Coordinating Ministry specifically in charge of infrastructure," said the chairman of the Democratic Party.
"This shows that there is an urgency and also a big vision from President Prabowo Subianto to be able to raise the role of infrastructure development to be at the forefront as well as to be the most fundamental," he concluded.
