JAKARTA - Minister of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) Erick Thohir held an internal meeting of the Ministry of SOEs to discuss the support of state-owned companies for President Prabowo Subianto's program.

The meeting was attended by the deputy minister of SOEs, ministerial secretaries, echelon 1 ranks, and ministerial special staff. This meeting was held at the BUMN Ministry Office.

"We ensure full support for the vision and programs of Mr. President General TNI (Ret.) Prabowo Subianto," Erick wrote, quoted from Instagram @erickthohir, Friday, November 29.

Erick said several things were discussed in the internal meeting. Like the program of 3 million houses launched by President Prabowo Subianto. He said SOEs would work together with related technical ministers to support the program.

"For example, together with the Minister of Housing and Settlement Areas (PKP), Mr. Maruarar Sirait, we support the development program of 3 million houses for the people. The collaboration between Perumnas, BTN, and PT KAI is focused on realizing vertical housing that is integrated with KRL services," he said.

Then, he continued, his party also synergized with the Nutrition Agency to support the Free Nutrition Food program. One of the support provided by state-owned companies is electricity supply.

"Together with the Head of the Nutrition Agency, Mr. Dadan Hindayana, we ensure that SOEs provide support through the provision of electricity, gas, and internet-elements connections important in the production of the Nutrition Service Unit," he said.

"In addition, we also encourage standardization of halal certification and kitchen certification for the Nutrition Service Unit," he said.

Not only that, Erick said that he also synergized with the Ministry of Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers (PPMI) to overcome the problem of legal workers through the development and utilization of an integrated database.

"Not to forget, together with the Minister of Transportation, Mr. Dudy Purwagandhi, and the Minister of Tourism, Mrs. Widiyanti Putri Wardhana, we encourage efforts to lower the price of airplane tickets. Through this collaboration, a tariff reduction of up to 10 percent has been successfully carried out," he explained.

Erick said that collaboration between ministries and institutions is the key to realizing Prabowo's ideals.

"Collaboration is key. With cross-sectoral cooperation, we can realize real solutions for a just and prosperous Indonesia according to the ideals of the President," he added.
