JAKARTA - Minister of State-Owned Enterprises (SOE) Erick Thohir invites the Indonesian diaspora to support and promote Indonesia's superior products abroad.
"With all humility I ask the Indonesian diaspora to instill the Red and White by raising our culture, increasing our superior products abroad. Why don't we help each other," said Erick Thohir during a virtual SOE Gathering with the Indonesian Diaspora in Jakarta, Antara, Saturday, February 19th.
The Minister of State-Owned Enterprises gave an example of how Indonesian MSME products are proven to be able to enter one of the largest souvenir shops in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with the help of the Indonesian diaspora network there.
In addition, Erick Thohir was also briefly contacted by an Indonesian diaspora from Japan who happened to own a supermarket. If indeed the diaspora can also open a network for Indonesian products in supermarkets in Japan, this is good for Indonesian products.
"I also met with the Indonesian diaspora in the United States, which is now one of the big players in the US shrimp industry. Why don't we knit it," he said.
The Minister of BUMN sees the importance of building an ecosystem with the strength of the Indonesian nation, considering that Indonesia has strong natural resources to support it. So far, Indonesia's natural resources have been used by other nations for their economic growth.
"Why are our strong natural resources used by the Indonesian diaspora abroad, by our own nation. This is what we are doing," said Erick Thohir.

In addition, the Indonesian market, which is also large, can support these domestic superior products. In addition to being superior in the country, Indonesian products can also be superior products in foreign markets such as Nigeria and the Philippines.
"These things can be done, because we have natural resources and the market just needs to knit the network to make it stronger," said Erick Thohir.
