According to him, this effort was made so that the business world could develop more, operate properly, so as to absorb labor.

"We have to make sure the business world can operate in peace. It is assisted to meet all existing provisions so that they can be registered, can recruit workers properly, can have legal certainty, can carry out all business operations in accordance with applicable regulations," he said in a written statement from Bali on Thursday, March 9.

For this reason, he advised all ministries/agencies to review policies and regulations in their respective sectors so that the business sector will develop more rapidly.

"I really leave it to the entire bureaucracy, please review what we can do so that we can make a more advanced business world," he said.

Suahasil added, local governments can synergize with ministries or technical institutions in the central government to be able to encourage the development of the business world in their respective regions.

Several times I have gone to Denpasar, Bali and seen rapidly developing economic activity. This is our opportunity from the ministry and local governments to regain economic recovery, improve community welfare, income for the community and all of our workers," said the Deputy Minister of Finance.

Deputy Sri Mulyani also encouraged ministries or institutions to intensify socialization and public dialogue regarding the Job Creation Perppu.
