JAKARTA - Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin) Rosan Roeslani said that there had been an agreement that Arsjad Rasjid would be the next Chairman of Kadin to replace him, while Anindya Bakrie became Chairman of the Advisory Council (Wantim) of Kadin.

"There has been an agreement, deliberation for consensus, which we have conveyed to the President, both of them agreed to both become chairman, but the difference is that one is Chair of the Advisory Council Anindya Bakrie, the other is General Chairperson of Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry Arsjad, of course this will be brought to National Conference," Rosan said after meeting with President Jokowi at the Presidential Palace Complex, Jakarta, quoted from Antara, Monday, June 28.

Previously, businessman Anindya Bakrie, son of Aburizal Bakrie, ran for the chairmanship of Kadin and competed with Arsjad Rasjid, who is the President Director of PT Indika Energy Tbk. Rosan said he really appreciated the steps taken by Anindya Bakrie.

According to him, this agreement was taken by Anindya and Arsjad, as the best solution in the midst of the dynamics of the election for the Chairman of Kadin which was so fierce in recent times. The deliberation and consensus step between the two parties, said Rosan, is an effort to make the condition of the nation more conducive.

"We from Kadin, of course, try to find the best solution, the dynamics of the election of the chairman is high, but always conducive, the three of us always meet, look for the best for Kadin, how to synergize with the government in the future," he said.

Rosan said the agreement between Anindya and Arsjad had been submitted to President Jokowi in writing. President Jokowi called Rosan very appreciative of the decision that had been taken.

"President appreciates, the business world is always looking for the best solution, they don't want to win each other by themselves, and of course on this occasion I really, really, really appreciate Anindya Bakrie. She is 15 years old as vice chairman, and really understands this dynamic, forward as chairman of the deliberative board," he said.

Anindya and Arsjad will be ratified as Chair of the Advisory Council and General Chairperson of Kadin at the Kadin National Deliberation on 30 June - 1 July 2021 in Kendari, Southeast Sulawesi
