JAKARTA - Economic observer Suroto said the G20 Summit should further expand the involvement of micro-enterprises, which is estimated to be approximately 95 percent of household businesses.

"G20-like ceremonial events in terms of events do not provide a lot of economic benefits (for micro-enterprises). Only medium and large businesses such as hotels, transportation, and others have an impact," said Suroto, quoted from Antara, Friday, November 18.

According to Suroto, the various policy substance results related to the implementation of the G20 should be more widespread for micro-enterprises, and not only look at the interests of established business people.

Suroto said that micro-enterprises in Indonesia have a motivation for business development, namely to survive, this is because at this time there is no good policy in order to create a decent job field.

The number of micro entrepreneurs, which amounted to approximately 95 percent of Indonesia's household, has developed to life. Life is reluctant to die reluctantly," said Suroto.

Previously, the government had facilitated a number of Indonesian MSMEs to show off in a series of G20 Summits, one of which was through a side event entitled Future SMEs Village to be used as a place for delegates to enjoy the creation of the archipelago.

In addition, at the peak event of the Summit, MSME products also have the opportunity to become official souvenirs or G20 officials for merchandise so that their products are likely to be ordered by delegates who come from various countries.
