JAKARTA - President Prabowo Subianto said that the transformation of the national economy would not be easy. He estimated that there would be resistance from groups who had enjoyed corruption, smuggling, and illegal economic practices.
Prabowo made the statement in a Pancasila Birthday speech at the Presidential Palace Complex in Jakarta, Monday (1/6).
"We will face obstacles. We will face challenges. Maybe we will also face resistance from groups that like corruption, like smuggling, like illegal economic actions," said Prabowo.
He also alluded to groups that do not love the homeland and seek to weaken the Republic of Indonesia.
However, Prabowo emphasized that the government should not back down. According to him, a great nation must dare to make the right decision even though it is difficult.
The speech came after Prabowo explained the government's big agenda in changing the direction of the national economy. Starting from downstreaming, strengthening cooperatives, food security, rural economy, to improving natural resource governance.
Prabowo said Indonesia must not continue to lose the added value of its natural wealth. The wealth must again benefit the people.
"We must not inherit short-term ease but sacrifice the future of our children and grandchildren," he said.
