JAKARTA - Fifth President Megawati Soekarnoputri reminded all young people below her to leave their comfort zones.

This was conveyed by Megawati when she was a speaker at the launch of the book in the context of the 58th Anniversary of the National Institute of Health (Lemhanas).

"That if we are in a comfortable zone. What is the comfort zone? Yes, like now. We sit well, we don't think about other people," said Megawati at the Lemhanas building, Central Jakarta, Saturday, May 20.

In front of the ministers, Lemhanas officials and students from elements of the TNI/Polri and alumni of the institution, Megawati reminded again the struggles of the founding fathers of the nation such as Bung Karno, Bung Hatta, Sutan Sjahrir, Bung Tomo, and other national heroes of the region against the invaders and the crackdown of rebellion.

Megawati also mentioned the relationship that should have occurred between TNI/Polri officials to the soldiers below.

He asked generals or high-ranking officers to pay more attention to the troops below him.

From what looks simple, then can prepare all the big plans.

"To remember, you guys can do this, that's because someone is by the way. There are subordinates. Well, please take care of your subordinates," he added.

Before echoing the Geo V (Geo Lima) narrative by Lemhannas, he invited all parties to look again at the contents of the 1945 Constitution (UUD) of the Republic of Indonesia.

"Don't forget that in our Constitution, it is clear that there is an inscription that all the poor people are taken care of by the state. Come on, if I'm wrong, I'll just correct it. I'm an open person," he said.

Megawati then praised the narrative or the Geo V concept initiated by the Governor of Lemhannas Andi Widjajanto.

The narrative is based on five strategic issues in which there are strengthening the consolidation of democracy, the green economy, the blue economy, digital transformation, and the development of the capital city of the archipelago, and designing Indonesia's transformation in 2045.

"Earlier, Geo V, don't continue to the geolima level. But that's actually true. Predictions in the future. If we are only in a comfortable zone, we don't want to think about actions and reactions," said Megawati.

Megawati then connected what was Lemhannas' program with the current conflict between Ukraine and Russia. He did not want to use the war-action between the two countries.

From this explanation, conflicts between the two countries can be further learned how to prepare the Indonesian nation in the future. This is because the impact has an effect on geopolitical and geoeconomic worlds.
