Surakarta Mayor and vice presidential candidate number 2 Gibran Rakabuming Raka want to give young people the opportunity to be entrepreneurial and independent.

This was conveyed by Gibran after attending the DPRD Plenary Meeting at the Surakarta City DPRD Office, Central Java, Wednesday, December 27. One of the efforts made is to simplify the investment process by investors.

"Yes, it has to be like that. We'll follow up later," he said as quoted by ANTARA.

According to Gibran, the most important point is to provide opportunities and space for young people to become entrepreneurs and be independent. "Later we will follow up," he said.

Meanwhile, at the plenary meeting, Gibran answered questions from the Special Committee (Pansus) for the Draft Regional Regulation (Raperda) of Surakarta City concerning Providing Incentives and Ease of Investment.

"Conducive investment activities have a positive impact on the regions. Investment activities can create new jobs," he said.

According to Gibran, the availability of new jobs will increase people's income while at the same time encouraging the realization of community welfare while reducing regional poverty.

"Through Regional Regulations on Providing Incentives and Ease of Investment, all aspects needed to grow the investment climate can be accommodated, balanced and aligned," he said.
