Kadin Calls Prabowo's Presence In Various Countries Has A Very Large Effect

JAKARTA - The presence of Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto in various countries is considered to have created extraordinary trust in Indonesia.

Mr. Prabowo's presence in many countries with Kadin turned out to have a very big effect. Mr. Prabowo is not always there for every country to be present with Kadin, it turns out that it creates extraordinary trust in Indonesia, even though our rupiah is like this ( experiencing weakening)," he said. Deputy Chairperson of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin) for Technology and Digital Transformation Teguh Anantawikorama quoting Antara.

One proof that other countries have confidence in Indonesia is that investment commitments in the country over the past four months have become the biggest in the history of investment commitments.

This means, he continued, if in the middle of this year these various commitments are realized, then Indonesia will develop significantly.

Meanwhile, if in six months Indonesia does not make significant developments, does not have savings in the form of digital assets and other types of assets, and does not shop for local products, then after July 2025 there will be a worse weakening of the rupiah exchange rate than in 1998.

"If we can use this well, then we will succeed next year, but if we fail in the next 6 months, then we are bankrupt," said Teguh.

In the midst of this threat, his party is optimistic that Indonesia will be able to overcome the economic challenges that are being faced.

"Many countries are now asking for help, why? Pak Prabowo's figure, which (can) speak Japanese, German, English, and his presence always comes with a complete business world, creates confidence in other countries that Indonesia can build," he said.
