JAKARTA - President Prabowo Subianto said the critical advice from global-level investor Ray Dalio was needed by Indonesia to develop the Anagata Nusantara Power Investment Management Agency (BPI Danantara) so that it could be optimal.
"I think you are in a position that can speak to us openly and also critically. I think we do need these critical advice, I think the key is," Prabowo said while welcoming and accepting Ray Dalio's presence at a meeting at the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta, Friday, March 7.
BPI Danantara became a topic that was discussed in depth in a meeting with Ray Dalio.
Prabowo assessed that Ray Dalio was the right person to share input in the development of the Danantara because Ray had the experience of developing other investment management agencies at the global level, such as in the Middle East region and other Asian countries.
The President hopes that entrepreneurs and officials in Indonesia can learn from RayDalio's advice.
In addition, Prabowo also revealed that he felt lucky because the investor wanted to share his extensive experience in investing in the government and Indonesian entrepreneurs.
In the future, the Head of State hopes that Ray Dalio can become a good friend for Indonesia, especially to share a much more in-depth experience in running investment bodies.
"We are very lucky you can come here with your experiences, with a very clear and wide variety of experiences in the global economy, with various experiences in Asia, in the Middle East, and in the world. And we are very lucky with you here as a friend," said the President.
President Prabowo Subianto brought together dozens of big entrepreneurs from Indonesia with US investor Ray Dalio at the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta, to discuss one of them in the management of assets at the Indonesian Danantara Investment Management Agency.
Prabowo revealed that the reason for inviting international figures such as Ray Dalio is because asset management in Danantara needs to be done carefully and in as transparently as possible.
"So that later the management of Indonesia's assets can be carried out as well as possible, be careful as possible, and that later all our economic entities will be carried out with efficiency that can compete with all entities in the world. We will move quickly, but we will move very carefully and carefully," said the Head of State.
