JAKARTA - Minister of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) Erick Thohir is considered to have a positive impact on the state by establishing holdings and subholding state-owned companies. This step needs to be supported and appreciated.

"The steps to form holdings and subholdings by Erick Thohir make the national program more quickly to be realized, import exports will become more stretched, the micro and macro sectors will experience healthy growth," said BUMN observer Vicky Suyanto in a written statement, Saturday, December 10.

Vicky said that the formation of holding and subholding made the work performance of SOEs optimal.

Moreover, he continued, there were more than 70 state-owned companies closed by Erick Thohir and the rest grouped according to his work sector.

"Each cluster has a holding that manages similar businesses and under holding there are several more subholdings," he explained.

"The establishment of holdings and sub holdings makes the work performance of state-owned companies optimal, the business climate is more conducive and work becomes more efficient because the approach taken is sectoral and integrative and makes holding companies bigger in terms of assets," Vicky continued.

Not only that, this grouping is also considered to allow SOEs to move freely to create innovation and be flexible.

So, said Vicky, profits can be achieved and make Indonesia ready to become a competitor in the future.

"This makes the country stronger so that it is ready to become a competitor who deserves to be taken into account and Indonesia will later become one of the best countries for investment purposes," he said.

Vicky added that all the steps made by Erick Thohir should have received appreciation from all parties.

According to him, this step can make progress for the nation.

"The steps that have been taken by Erick Thohir need to be appreciated and supported for the progress of our beloved country," he concluded.
